The three colours were in a state of chaos at the moment, with none having an advantage over the other, taking Liu Yan’s body as a battlefield in a seemingly endless struggle.
However, Liu Yan was no ordinary existence either. Having absorbed the Sun’s True Fire and the Heaven Scorching Thunder Fire, neither of which lost out when compared to the Blue Ice Flame, the stalemate only lasted a short time before the brightly flickering blue light began to dim.
At that moment, Liu Yan’s figure trembled, and the phantom image of a tripod-style furnace appeared within her.
This was her natal artifact, the Origin King Grade Artifact Refining Furnace!
The Blue Ice Flame was quickly condensed and sealed by the Artifact Refining Furnace. Having gained control over this new flame, as long as she was given enough time, Liu Yan would be able to refine it into her being to increase her strength.
*Pu…*
In the distance, Li Mao Ming spurted out a mouthful of blood as he felt his connection to the Blue Ice Flame become severed. It was now impossible for him to retrieve it unless he were to kill this strange Firebird.
While Liu Yan and Li Mao Ming were fighting for control of the Blue Ice Flame, Xiao Xiao had been engaging in battle with Gong Sun Liang.
Although Xiao Xiao had assumed his stone giant form, compared with the enormous Embodiment, he still looked like a grandson in front of his grandfather. Gong Sun Liang saw that his strength was insufficient to deal with the Embodiment, so he instead turned his attention to Xiao Xiao.
Gong Sun Liang’s short sword artifact had been damaged quite badly already, losing much of its spirituality, so he was unable to use it again at this moment. Instead, he summoned a heavy-looking war-hammer type artifact.
Pouring his strength into this artifact, Gong Sun Liang slammed it down at Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao met his attack head-on with a swing of his stick.
The hammer-like artifact exploded into dust on contact and Gong Sun Liang’s whole body was sent flying, the bones in both his arms shattering from the impact.
Only now did Gong Sun Liang realize how big a mistake he had made. Although his hammer artifact was not Origin King Grade, it was still Origin Grade High-Rank, Yet this extremely strong artifact exploded into dust, so it was not hard to imagine just how powerful this strong stone giant’s seemingly simple stick really was.
This strength alone was enough to win ten out of ten frontal contests!
The two Second-Order Origin Kings were both easily taken down, causing the remaining eight First-Order Origin King Realm Elders to exchange lost and helpless glances for a time.
The Embodiment continued its unhurried stroll, leaving deep cracks and gullies as it took each step, its very existence like a mountain pressing down on all the Purple Star masters’ hearts, making them breathless.
Even Shen Tu and his followers, who were being guarded by Yang Kai had their jaws dropped at the moment as they stared blankly at the scene before them, unable to believe what they were seeing.
With just his own strength, Yang Kai was fighting against all the masters of Purple Star, including eight First-Order Origin Kings, two Second-Order Origin Kings, and one Third-Order Origin King… But not only was he not losing, he also occupied the absolute advantage.
If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it possible.
Shen Tu was thoroughly shocked, but at the same time somewhat embarrassed and depressed.
Thinking back to when he and Yang Kai met for the first time, Yang Kai had been far behind him in terms of cultivation and the two of them had to mutually help one another in order to survive.
But upon meeting again, after just a few dozen years, Shen Tu found that his friend now stood at a height that he couldn’t see even by craning his neck up high. This massive gap would be impossible for him to close for the rest of his life…
This discovery made Shen Tu feel somewhat lost…
These years, he had not been wasting his time; rather, he had been working hard to cultivate, wanting to be recognized by President Ai Ou and wanting to surpass his outstanding Third Brother, but his achievements now seemed so worthless in front of Yang Kai.
