Chapter 4 Strange Fire: Nine Nether Flames

"Master..."

"Isn't this your Purple Eagle Flame?"

When Gu He showed the purple flame, Liu Ling's eyes widened.

He had followed Gu He for many years, so he naturally recognized that this purple flame was the flame that Gu He used to refine medicine.

This Purple Eagle Flame is a kind of exotic beast fire, and Gu He had a hard time getting it back then.

Could it be that Master is going to reward me with this Purple Eagle Flame?

Thinking of what Gu He had just said, Liu Ling couldn't hold back any longer.

Plop!

"Master, no!"

"Absolutely not!"

"You first taught me the seventh-grade skills, and then taught me cultivation. These disciples alone are not enough to repay you."

"This Purple Eagle Flame is the flame that Master uses to refine medicine. I absolutely cannot accept it!"

This time, Liu Ling was out of character and knelt on the ground and refused to accept it.

This Purple Eagle Flame has a miraculous effect on alchemists. If he accepted it, what would Master do with his medicine in the future?

Thinking of this, Liu Ling would never accept this Purple Eagle Flame.

"Ling'er, you get up first." Seeing Liu Ling kneeling down again, Gu He suddenly had a headache.

This silly boy is a good person, but his legs are too soft.

Who can stand kneeling down all the time?

"Master, as long as you take back your order, I will get up." Liu Ling shook his head, still unwilling to accept it.

"Ling'er, if you don't get up, I will be angry." Seeing that Liu Ling didn't listen to him, Gu He could only put on a "strict teacher" attitude and pretend to be angry.

"Master!" Hearing Gu He's words, Liu Ling was unwilling in his heart, but he could only get up obediently.

"Master, I really can't accept this purple eagle flame." Liu Ling still refused to accept the purple eagle flame.

"Ling'er, in fact, I have received news of a strange fire."

Seeing that Liu Ling refused to accept it, Gu He could only use his big move: "This purple eagle flame will soon be out of my hands. If you don't want it, I will give it to someone else."

After that, Gu He was ready to take back the purple eagle flame in his hand.

Hearing this, Liu Ling was slightly stunned. After he reacted, he quickly grabbed Gu He's sleeve.

"Don't... Master..."

"I'm wrong, Master!"

Liu Ling's original mournful expression immediately changed into a flattering face.

"Master, since you don't need it, give it to your disciple."

Gu He said with a straight face: "Aren't you unwilling to take it?"

Liu Ling quickly admitted his mistake: "Master, I was wrong, I want it, I want it..."

"That's better." Gu He heard this, a smug look flashed in his eyes, and then he no longer controlled Liu Ling, and directly handed the Purple Eagle Flame to Liu Ling.

At the same time, the system's prompt sound slowly sounded in Gu He's mind.

"Ding, it is detected that the host has granted the eldest disciple Liu Ling the beast fire Purple Eagle Flame. Congratulations to the host for triggering the ten thousand times return and obtaining the strange fire Nine Nether Flame."

"The strange fire Nine Nether Flame has been distributed to the system space, please check it carefully."

Ten thousand times return!

Strange fire Nine Nether Flame!

Gu He's right hand holding the Purple Eagle Flame trembled slightly.

"Thank you, Master!" Liu Ling carefully took the Purple Eagle Flame and thanked Gu He.

"Go, go, refine it quickly."

Hearing the system prompt in his mind, Gu He couldn't wait to check it out, and immediately drove Liu Ling.

"Yes, then I'll take my leave."

Like Gu He, Liu Ling couldn't wait to refine the Purple Eagle Flame. Hearing Gu He's urging, he didn't stop and hurriedly left Gu He's room.

After Liu Ling left, Gu He couldn't wait to enter the system space.

In addition to the black scroll and the purple light ball, there was another purple flame in the system space.

This purple flame was very spiritual and looked like an immortal bird.

"Is this the Nine Nether Flame?"

Looking at the purple flame in front of him, Gu He's eyes showed excitement.

Strange fire is something that every alchemist dreams of. As an alchemist, Gu He is no exception.

"Ding, may I ask if the host starts to refine the Nine Nether Flame?"

Just as Gu He's consciousness approached the Nine Nether Flame, the system's voice sounded in his mind.

Hearing the system's voice, Gu He was slightly stunned, and then shook his head.

He didn't know if it would be dangerous to rashly fuse the strange fire. Although there was the help of the system, Gu He thought that he should improve his cultivation first for the sake of safety.

Thinking of this, Gu He immediately looked at the purple light ball on the side.

"System, extract nineteen years of cultivation!" After a moment of silence, Gu He directly ordered the system.

As Gu He's voice fell, a huge force suddenly surged out of his body.

"Not good!"

Feeling this energy, Gu He's face changed, and then his figure flashed and came to the alchemy room next door.

At this moment, the vast energy has poured into Gu He's limbs and bones. Gu He forced himself to calm down, and then ran the Zi Yang Jue and began to absorb this huge energy.

After a while, Gu He's cultivation began to gradually improve...

Four-star Dou Wang!

Five-star Dou Wang!

Six-star Dou Wang!

…

In the alchemy room, Gu He's aura was rising steadily, extremely terrifying.

Fortunately, Gu He arrived at the alchemy room in time. In order to prevent the furnace from exploding, the walls of the alchemy room were built with a lot of precious materials. At this moment, the sensation caused by Gu He's successive breakthroughs was not enough to be noticed by outsiders.

Seven-star Dou Wang!

Eight-star Dou Wang!

Nine-star Dou Wang!

As he continued to absorb the energy in his body, Gu He's cultivation continued to increase.

In the end, Gu He's cultivation remained at the peak of the Nine-star Dou Wang.

He was only one step away from breaking through the Dou Huang realm.

At the same time, the energy in Gu He's body was finally absorbed.

He slowly opened his eyes, and a flash of excitement flashed in Gu He's eyes.

Nine-star Dou Wang!

In just a moment, he jumped from a three-star Dou Wang to a nine-star Dou Wang peak powerhouse.

This feeling was really sour and refreshing.

Feeling the powerful power of the Nine-star Dou Wang in his body, Gu He unconsciously showed a confident smile at the corner of his mouth.

At this rate of progress, it won't be long before he can break through the Dou Huang realm.

Having read the original work, he naturally understood it in his heart.

Only by stepping into the Dou Huang realm can one have a trace of self-protection power in this world full of strong people.

"With my current strength as a nine-star Dou Wang, with the help of the system, it should be okay to fuse the Nine Nether Flame."

After a moment of silence, Gu He said lightly: "System, extract the Nine Nether Flame!"

As Gu He finished speaking, the purple flame in the system space turned into a purple light and instantly penetrated into Gu He's body.

As the Nine Nether Flame entered his body, Gu He felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his face turned pale instantly.

A burning sensation instantly rose in his body.

Drops of sweat instantly rolled down Gu He's forehead, and Gu He felt that his flesh and blood were twitching constantly.

Accompanied by this heart-wrenching pain, the Nine Nether Flame was gradually refined by Gu He.

It was unknown how long it took for the pain in Gu He's body to slowly disappear.

And at this moment, Gu He slowly opened his eyes, and a ray of purple light flashed in his dark eyes.

Gu He slowly stretched out his right hand, and with a thought, a ball of purple flame instantly rose up.

Looking at the purple Nine Nether Flame in his hand, Gu He showed a satisfied smile.

"Next, it's time for the Emperor Grade Technique, the Soul Devouring Technique."

After the excitement, Gu He gradually calmed down and slowly looked at the black scroll in the system space.
