CHAPTER 947 DARREN'S REASON FOR PASSING
The conditions were enough to satisfy Darren, but he couldn't help but be skeptical towards this small
fire. He was having trouble believing him so easily.
"Very well then, little guy. Teach me how to control the godly fires first, and then I will tell you how I
passed the test. What do you think?" Darren proposed.
"You're asking too much!" The small fire seemed angered by his demands.
"How can you say that? I don't even need the three godly fires, so it's purely up to you to decide,"
Darren said.
The small fire looked thoughtful for a moment, seemingly unable to retort anything back. "Fine. You win
this time, humph!"
"I have 108 types of godly fires that you can choose from. Each one has their own unique abilities. But I
can only give you three kinds," the small fire said.
"Can't I get all of them?" Darren asked, thoughtfully. "You can ask for whatever you want in return."
"Fuck off!" The small fire was indignant by Darren's presumptuous attitude. "Don't be too greedy for you
can only control three kinds of fire. That's the limit that your True Fire Spiritual Body will allow you to
have. As for Fire Spirits like me, we can control all kinds of fire.
Now, enough talking. Just relax your mind and I'll draw the three godly fires into your flame crystal."
Darren knew when to admit defeat in an argument. With that, he relaxed his mind completely and let
the small fire do his work.
The next thing he knew, Darren could feel the fire spiritual energy raging inside him.
The whole world suddenly transformed into a sea of fire. The temperature rose until it exceeded the
limits of nature. It was boiling hot, enough to melt everything around. The temperature had gone higher
than when Darren experienced the test.
"This is horrible." Even though Darren's body could withstand high temperatures, this heat had reached
such unbearable heights. It was so hot that even a half-step emperor could burn into ashes.
Then, red, blue and green lights began to dance around the small fire.
Shortly after, the three flames entered Darren's elixir field.
Surprisingly, Darren didn't find the process uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, their warmth reminded owns this.
him of the feeling when his talents improved.
"Wow!" Darren closed his eyes and studied his elixir field quietly.
He could feel the energy radiating from the three kinds of fire as they circled around his flame crystal.
"It's done," the small fire announced.
"That's it?"
Darren had assumed that the process would be long and complicated. He didn't expect it to be this
short and easy.
"What else do you want to happen? I'm a Fire Spirit. I have perfect control over any fire," the small fire
said haughtily.
"Thank you very much." Darren felt immensely satisfied.
It was time that he tried out the new godly fires within him.
A stream of heat flowed out from his meridians and gathered at his palms.
Green flames then shot out from his hands. The air sizzled around him as extreme heat passed
through at unpredictable speed.
It created a series of explosions that were loud enough to shake the earth.
Its temperature was so high that it was no question that it could burn a half-step emperor.
"Shit! That's really strong!" Darren was overjoyed by this newfound skill.
"Are you satisfied now? Now, it's your turn to give your end of the bargain. Tell me how you passed the
test," the small fire reminded.
"It's easy. Have you heard of Phoenix Nirvana?" Darren inquired.
The small fire was suddenly angry by Darren's response. "Don't bluff me. How dare you trick me with
such childish thing? You don't even look like a phoenix at all."
Darren rolled his eyes. "I was just asking whether you know about the Phoenix Nirvana or not. It
doesn't mean I have the nirvana or I look like a phoenix, right? Jeez, what's your problem?"
Then Darren continued, "A while ago, you suddenly increased the temperature that was too much for
my flame crystal to handle. If it had gone on any longer, I would have died."
"That's only natural. Now cut the crap and go straight to the point." The small fire was becoming
impatient.
Darren simply ignored him and continued, "I knew that I would die in that moment so I decided to
smash the flame crystal inside my body into pieces. It was a risky call, but it worked."
"You should be dead then," the small fire said. "That's why I'm asking you how you are still alive?" The
small fire was getting frustrated.
Darren gave him a scornful look. "Apparently, your knowledge on the matter is still quite limited. While I
was dividing my flame crystal, I infused all my life aura into its fragments so that I could come back to
life when they were all gathered together."
"That's bullshit! How can you survive having your life torn into millions of pieces? If you are capable of
such method, then doesn't that make your body immortal? How can that even be possible?" It was
obvious that the small fire didn't believe Darren at all.
"It's only normal that you won't believe me. I wouldn't have believed it either if someone told me this
before. Oh, but I almost forgot. I also relied on another method to come back to life," Darren said.
"What method are you talking about?"
"I have also mastered the Reincarnation Holy Will so I used it in all the crystal particles. At that time, I
was hoping that the Reincarnation Holy Will would condense my flame crystal. Obviously, I was correct,
and I made it through," Darren said.
The small fire fell silent upon hearing Darren's explanation.
He had never heard of the Reincarnation Holy Will before, but he believed Darren because the mere
fact that he was still alive was proof enough that it was real.
"So it turns out that you are just a fluke,"
the small fire said dismissively. He had finally figured out how Darren managed to obtain the True Fire
Spiritual Body.
If Darren had divided the flame crystal into millions of smaller crystals, those fragments could absorb
the fire spiritual energy and reach the top level.
Hence when Darren came back to life, he would have the True Fire Spiritual Body.
"I also think it was a fluke. And I'm sure I won't be successful the next time I use this method again,"
Darren admitted.
"Why is that?" The small fire seemed curious.
"It's very simple actually. At that time, I was in a mortal body so my life aura was weak. My
Reincarnation Holy Will was just enough to protect my life aura. If I was in my junior holy warrior state,
the Reincarnation Holy Will would be too weak to shield my life aura. This meant I wouldn't be able to
put back together the flame crystal," Darren explained.
Finally, the small fire nodded his head and then sighed. "Alas, you got through this round. But that
doesn't mean that you'll be passing the next test."
However, Darren didn't seem fazed by the small fire's warning. "What is the next test?"
"Why bother asking? This passage was created for the inheritance of a Fire and Water Emperor
Character. Naturally, the next test would be related to water.
And since you've passed my test, let me give you a word of advice. Don't ever use any fire force or
aura against the Water Spirit, or else you will die a miserable death. Now go. I have nothing more to
say."
With that, a powerful force seemed to be sucking Darren into the blue door.
