"Unique Trial: The Burning Sun Refinement will now commence!"
Just as this voice trailed off, Ace's surroundings suddenly wrapped, and the next moment, he was standing in a completely different place.
Ace's eyes widened in astonishment because ahead of him were three burning suns, the first on the left was green, the second in the middle was red, and the third on the right was blue!
Ace couldn't tell just how close or far those three blazing suns were, but he could easily feel the terrifying intents on each of them which gave different feelings. He has never felt anything like this before.
The same voice sounded at this moment again, "The Suns before you are the manifestation of three types of Fire Intents left behind by the Sun God for its successor.
"The Green Sun represents the Life hidden in flames. The Red Sun represents Destruction. The Blue Sun mirrored the Disaster. Together these three flames are called the Yang Flames.
"Sun and Moon Seeker, your goal is to refine these three intents with the help of your Yang Mortal Sword Manual and manifest the Mortal Yang Intent!
"You have 30 days to achieve this before you fail and have to wait for 30 days before you can take on this trial again!"
Ace was baffled by this trial because this was the last thing he was hoping to get for a trial. Moreover, this was the time when he needed the Yang Mortal Sword Manual, which he was incapable of using.
Furthermore, it was his first time hearing that someone could have three types of different intents of the same element, and the Sun God seemed to be a terrifying existence now.
The intent was something that represented the desire of the intent holder as well as the intent medium. There are two types of intent.
The Weapon intent represents the desire to kill, which matches the weapon's characteristics and how the holder wants to kill with this weapon.
Once a person figures out their inner thought and how they want to use a weapon that should be inclined toward weapon characteristic, and that weapon fully ingests itself within the holder's very being, the weapon intent will be born, which give incredible prowess and open the path of weapon intent.
However, unlike the Weapon Intent, the Element Intent was vastly different.
The first difference was that the Element Intents couldn't be used with other element intents like the Weapon Intent. Because a weapon's intent is like a blank paper as it manifests from a blank weapon.
On the contrary, the element intent was not like the weapons as it represents a unique path, the path of law. An element didn't depend on someone's will or resolve because it was an independent entity that represented the very origin of heaven and earth.
Once an element user starts to understand the element at a deeper level, they will slowly be walked toward the path of an element intent. Once they reach the threshold and understand the Law Intent of that element, they become aware of that element's law, exit the realm of elements, and enter the realm of laws.
This was also the path of a Soul Manifestation to the Law Awareness Realm!
Although there was another aspect of the Law Awareness Realm, the matter at hand was Ace was told to comprehend a Law Intent, and it was clearly not just any normal law intent but can only be achieved after comprehending the Fire Element at a significantly more profound level.
Although Ace has comprehended the sword's intent and could use it with two different elements, but it was because of his fifteen years of experience and many fortuitous encounters.
Moreover, he has no idea how to use those elements independently without his sword intent because he didn't have time to pay attention to the Element Intents since he was quite busy with his sword intent.
Ace has already planned to start learning the Element Intents after he is done with this mission and saving Alina. But now, he needed to comprehend a complex element intent within a month, and that element just happened to be completely different from the elements he understood.
This left Ace stumped, and he knew if he didn't do something, he won't be able to pass this trial no matter what he did, and time was a luxury that he was thoroughly lacking at this moment.
According to the fate map, he was still inside the cathedral, but he was not at the entrance but deep inside it.
'I need to find a way to exit this location. But I can't unless I find a way to break free from this formation restriction which is a Grade-8 formation. None of my skills will work here or treasures.
'Even that old snake didn't have a treasure to encounter a Grade-8 formation. Unfortunately, this mission is too high level for my current self, and I got it at the wrong place and wrong time…' Ace thought ruefully as he looked at those three suns with a deep, grim frown.
Then a sudden thought surfaced in his mind, 'Wait, in that snake records, I found an old unknown journal which wasn't written in the beast language, and it was about someone's research on the spirit fires.
'There was also alchemy inheritance of an ingenious alchemist who was most likely the one who had made all those arrangements to capture the Spirit Fire, but somehow the Grim Ancestor benefited from it.
'According to those records, the Spirit Fires have an ultimate affinity with fire law and can mold themselves into different types of fires depending on their environments. I didn't understand what this meant before, but now, I think it also refers to the various aspects of the fire elements.
'Furthermore, spirit fire can grow by devouring a weaker spirit fire, and if someone can nurture the spirit fire and control it to a full extent, that person will no longer be effective by the normal Fire at all.
'Then there were fabled existences described in those texts very briefly, those born with innate spirit fire and known as the Rulers of Fire. The only information written in those texts was the Rulers of Fire could control all the Fire in existence!
'I don't know if it's true or not, but I know someone who was born with an Innate Spirit Fire, but the question is whether I can take him out here or not….'
Thinking to this point, Ace again seeks the system out because if those records and his conjecture were accurate, then the entire Sun Secret Realm might be nothing but a walk in the park for him!
