Fang Zhou, I'm just a farmer, not Shennong!

A man in black robe who looked exactly the same as the one in the consciousness space was slowly leaving. He never stepped into the area of the Civilian Grain Association.

As long as Lu Yuan wants.

He could now rush out and capture this guy who claimed to be from the deep sea.

However, Lu Yuan's instinctive reaction told him not to do so.

In fact, similar plots have already been answered in many novels and TV dramas.

Generally, those sent to negotiate and invite are just small characters who are so ordinary that they cannot be more ordinary and have no say at all.

There is no point in arresting such people.

Acting rashly would not only expose one's hidden strength, but would also alert the enemy, which would not be worth the loss. It would be far better to wait patiently and finally lure out the real culprit.

Moreover, Lu Yuan wanted to take a look.

Who are the other people invited from all over Ursus?

I hope I don't guess wrong.

...........

After acquiring new abilities, Lu Yuan now has something new to do every day.

He now conducts fire control training twice a day for about four to six hours.

I just got up in the morning, washed up, and had a simple nutritious breakfast.

Afterwards, Lu Yuan would usually train for two hours in the open space behind the Civilian Grain Association where no one usually came.

Then in the afternoon and evening, depending on the situation, I will continue training for two to four hours whenever I have time.

Because of the foundation of "controlling water" and "controlling wood", and Lu Yuan's own magical talent is extremely high.

But after just half a month of training.

Lu Yuan's proficiency in 'fire control' has already progressed from entry-level to mastery.

now.

Lu Yuan was standing in an uninhabited area deep in the northern permafrost, quite far away from Saint Jun Castle.

The north wind howled, snow swept across, and the snow on the ground could even cover the knees of ordinary people. The icy polar weather was the main melody here.

however.

Lu Yuan just stood here.

There was not a speck of snow or even water on the land for several hundred meters around him.

The snow falling from the sky will instantly melt into water droplets when it enters a certain range around Lu Yuan, and then the water droplets will evaporate into water vapor.

Lu Yuan was wearing thin clothes and stood there motionless.

Flames danced on his palms.

However, this flame is brighter and hotter than ordinary flames. Even from a long distance, one can clearly feel the scorching heat inside it, as if it is the core of the sun.

Even just looking at it from a distance will make your eyes hurt.

suddenly.

Lu Yuan's eyes suddenly opened and his strength was suddenly exerted.

The flame in his hand suddenly became brighter, the temperature rose a lot, and the snow farther away also melted.

Only this time.

The flame is no longer a flame, but it is constantly compressing towards the most core point, constantly compressing.

After a brief period of extreme compression.

The flame, which was already extremely bright, suddenly turned into a small sphere the size of a cowpea.

At the moment the small sphere was formed, it suddenly released an extreme burst of brightness, which was even comparable to the brightness of the sun. There was no longer the red of fire, but only pure white.

The high temperature emitted from the bright sphere, which was only the size of a cowpea and was made of pure flames, caused the air in an area of one or two kilometers centered on Lu Yuan to be distorted due to the heat.

The corners of Lu Yuan's mouth rose slightly.

"Successful, compressed to the extreme..."

Afterwards, Lu Yuan carefully operated this fireball, which was small but had huge internal power and was extremely unstable.

Interlace your middle finger and thumb, and extend the other three fingers.

The unstable little fireball slowly floated between the middle finger and thumb.

Lu Yuan looked at the many huge mountains not far ahead.

Then...

He applied slight force with his middle finger and thumb.

next moment.

The surface of the flame ball in the center of the two fingers cracked and then exploded. In an instant, the extremely incandescent flames turned into a fan shape and sprayed forward. The temperature was so high that it was enough to melt everything around it.

The many mountains ahead were crumbling bit by bit under such extreme destruction, and even the stones melted and evaporated, disappearing from this world.

In a blink of an eye.

When the incandescent flames faded.

The original mountain in front had completely disappeared at this time, as if it had never appeared in this world.

Only Lu Yuan stood there motionless, as if the recent attack had nothing to do with him.

"It's quite powerful, worthy of being a flame."

Lu Yuan looked at his masterpiece and nodded with satisfaction.

One blow can steam the mountain.

This is extremely shocking no matter where it is placed.

However, for Lu Yuan, it was just okay.

Although the mountain is big to Lu Yuan, it is just big.

When he was fighting against the unknown fragment of the god in Ursus and was forced to use the True Thousand Hands, the one man and the one god destroyed countless surrounding mountains just by the aftermath of the battle.

Therefore, the current performance is indeed average for Lu Yuan.

"Water itself is soft, while fire itself represents fierceness."

"So, under the same extreme compression, water will turn into an indestructible water knife, while fire is more inclined to destructive and destructive, and the extreme high temperature will destroy everything."

Lu Yuan thought silently.

He was comparing the power he held.

suddenly.

A line of words flashed before Lu Yuan's eyes.

[Improved Fire Control Proficiency]

【Mastery → Greatness】

Congratulations, you have obtained the 'Fire Control' extended ability: Black Flame.

"Black flame?!"

The moment he acquired this "extension ability", a stream of knowledge directly flowed into Lu Yuan's mind, allowing Lu Yuan to gain a certain understanding of the black flame.

Black flame is equivalent to a higher level of fire.

In addition to having a higher level of temperature, it also has more deformable properties, is no longer afraid of water, and is difficult to extinguish.

on the whole.

The ability of Black Flame is the same as Lu Yuan's abilities such as 'Wood Control', 'Water Transformation' and 'Immortal Wood Body', all of which are extended versions of basic abilities.

and.

In addition to his attack, Black Flame also has another special feature.

【Black Flame Cast】

The black flame can be melted into one's own body, just like the 'Immortal Wood Body', and both can act on the flesh.

The black flame can ignite Lu Yuan's body, activating every cell in the body and covering it with the characteristics of fire, greatly increasing the strength level of the body.

When Lu Yuan saw this characteristic of the black flame, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Directly increase physical strength!!

Isn't this equivalent to directly making up for one of Lu Yuan's shortcomings?

Lu Yuan at the moment.

Physical strength is still a shortcoming to a certain extent.

Although Excellence III is already quite high, it is still within the human range to a certain extent. The ignition of the black flame itself has indirectly pushed Lu Yuan's physical body to an extremely high level.

This is roughly equivalent to...

[Natural Mode] enhances his Originium skills, [Water Transformation] allows Lu Yuan to ignore physical attacks to a certain extent, [Fairy Wood Body] enhances Lu Yuan's recovery and vitality, and as for [Black Flame Body Casting], it improves the attack power of the physical body in all aspects.

“It seems we’ve had a fruitful harvest…”

Lu Yuan nodded happily in his heart.

Now his fighting ability has increased a bit, and he doesn't know when he will be able to really fight against the complete behemoth.

"Okay! Now let's try the combination of fire and wood!"

Lu Yuan immediately started to think of something new.

Wood and fire may be combined to create a more powerful move.

Because I was so excited.

Once he started training, Lu Yuan forgot about time.

When I came to my senses, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

Looking at the bumpy ground and the evaporated and broken mountains ahead due to his training, Lu Yuan was quite satisfied with his masterpiece of an afternoon.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he decisively followed the current back to Saint Jun Castle.

Lu Yuan is feeling particularly itchy now.

He desperately wanted to find someone of equal strength to fight, but unfortunately, Lu Yuan couldn't find such a person.

"Ugh...."

"It's a pity that Lord Blood Demon is not here. I heard from Logos that Lord Blood Demon can be resurrected infinitely. If he were here, I could try as much as I want. What a pity."

Lu Yuan thought as he left.

And an hour after Lu Yuan left.

Several figures walked towards this side with difficulty from a distance in the wind and snow.

"Eh...strange..."

One of the infected people, who was wrapped in thick cotton clothes, took out a map and spoke in confusion.

They were a logistics expedition team sent by the Reunion Movement to find a backup camp.

"what happened?"

The person next to him asked.

"I see on the map that there shouldn't be several mountains here? Where are the mountains?"

"Mountain...Mountain..."

The other person also raised his head, looked around, and looked at the map again, also confused.

"You didn't read the map wrongly, did you?"

"How is that possible? I'm a professional, how could I be wrong?! Could this map be marked wrong? This is so unprofessional! Even this can be marked wrong?"

The infected person holding the map kept mumbling to himself.
