Chapter 869: Chapter 383: Legs! (Part 2)
"During the first stage of the trial, just a slight reminder, and he dared to make the move of using Spiritual Qi to impact the Yongquan Acupoint!"
"The fact proves it also has a good effect!"
The senior brother said, recalling the process of Xu Ran’s previous trials in his mind, each step being broken down and analyzed in his head.
"Hoo!"
Then, he exhaled a cold mist.
"Although this newcomer doesn’t understand the matter of refining the calf bones, he can feel that the magma gushing out has a considerable effect on his Leg Technique!"
"Since this is a trial about the Leg Technique, he only needs to cultivate his Leg Technique until the bald head is satisfied, and he will naturally appear!"
The senior brother said, his voice halting abruptly, as if there was an extremely sharp gaze staring at him from the void.
At the same time.
The senior brother raised his head, staring into the empty sky, his gaze sharp, as if having a standoff with someone.
He knew that the bald head had just heard what he said.
...
"Hoo!"
Xu Ran, who had just cleared his mind, suddenly had a fierce flame jet out from underneath his feet.
This flame was as large as ten meters and could directly engulf several stakes.
"Here it comes!"
Xu Ran’s eyes lit up. Seeing such a huge flame, he didn’t immediately leap but waited for a breath on the stake.
"What is he doing? How could he not react in just one breath?"
The junior sister exclaimed upon seeing Xu Ran’s stalled appearance.
The suddenly rising temperature caused even the foreheads of the three onlookers to sweat. Xu Ran was in the trial field, and without even seeing the massive flame, he should react immediately upon sensing the sharp rise in temperature.
As a natural genius specializing in Spiritual Power cultivation, she barely understood what the senior brother and second brother were discussing just now.
It wasn’t until the senior brother quietly motioned to the second brother, who, upon seeing such a massive flame, swallowed and wiped the sweat from his forehead, saying.
"Is he really going to do this? With such a massive flame, if he’s not careful, he would be wrapped in it instantly, with no time for regrets!"
Through the senior brother’s words, he realized that Xu Ran intended to imitate the first stage fist trial.
However, in the first stage fist trial, he used Spiritual Qi to impact the Yongquan Acupoint, while in this trial, it was the continuing flame gushing from under his feet to refine the calf bone.
These flames, existing within the Nine-Layered Giant Tower, are of such high temperature that a slight touch would demand a great price.
However, if these flames could indeed be used to refine the calf bones, then compared to any Bone Forging Liquid, Spirit Grass, or Beast Blood... they would be insignificant in the presence of this flame.
The premise is that Xu Ran’s reaction is truly fast enough to complete the refining without harming himself.
For a moment, the experienced second brother even got nervous, leaning a bit forward.
As a cultivator who specialized in strengthening the physical body, every aspect of his corporeal qualities had long reached the extreme, but achieving that was under countless years of cultivation.
But now, right in front of them, a child not yet two years old was about to accomplish this feat.
He couldn’t help but get excited!
Even the usually calm senior brother, upon seeing such a massive flame, clenched his palms tightly and became worried.
Xu Ran was the person with the highest acknowledgment from the Nine-Layered Giant Tower for the first time, and if he couldn’t complete this trial, it would be a huge loss for him, the Nine-Layered Giant Tower, and the entire Origin Realm.
Moreover, he wasn’t confident that he could pass this trial with the same cultivation level as Xu Ran, even if he knew how to pass it.
Faced with such a massive flame, safety would take precedence, and avoiding it would be the focus.
Not only were the three watching Xu Ran’s trial starting to get tense, but even the bald head hiding in the void cursed at the scene.
"This kid’s guts are too big, daring to go head-on with such a massive flame!"
Clearly, the bald head was also startled by Xu Ran’s action.
As the gatekeeper, although he must give his all, he still hoped someone could pass the trial.
If no one passes, the presence of the Nine-Layered Giant Tower will be meaningless.
The arrival of Xu Ran has already been the most potential presence over these long years.
If even he doesn’t get through, there might not be anyone who can pass the Nine-Layered Giant Tower in the future.
"The flame Xu Ran emits will become more massive as time goes on, but this is the first instance, so why rush?"
"Don’t you know to first observe the flame’s trajectory before refining the calf bone?"
"What’s the rush!!!"
Now it seemed like the one who was anxious was the bald head himself!
As the Gate Creator, Xu Ran also knew that safety was paramount for passing the hurdle, but now, time wasn’t waiting.
He had just sensed it.
The flame gushing from the magma had become several times more massive compared to before, and its energy hadn’t waned at all.
This meant that the flame gushing from the magma would become more massive as time increased.
Just now, it melted through the tree-root stakes in one go. When the energy surged again, how massive would the flame gushing from the magma become?
One hundred meters? Or one thousand meters?
No matter how massive the next flame becomes, these stakes here will soon disappear completely.
Then, Xu Ran, with no landing spot, would be directly melted by the magma.
By then, there would be no chance.
Quickly improving his Leg Technique and passing this trial is crucial.
"Hoo!"
Instantly.
The flame gushing from underground was already closing in on Xu Ran, the sparks splattering had already reached him.
Fortunately, he was agile enough not to let the sparks reach him.
"Now’s the time!"
Instantly.
Xu Ran seemed to have found an absolutely perfect timing, discovering the weakness of this massive flame.
Da da----
Two crisp knocking sounds erupted, and following the sound, they realized that the stake where Xu Ran just stood was now devoid of his presence, leaving behind only a lingering dust that couldn’t keep up.
With a blink of an eye, Xu Ran had already performed a maneuver, left foot stepping on the right, easily bypassing the flame.
But it wasn’t over yet.
"This flame will swell and turn!"
Xu Ran quickly voiced out the info.
Although he seemed to avoid the flame effortlessly, it came at a great cost of attention and observation.
Each flame gushing from underground had two attack patterns.
The first one, shooting straight up from the magma, the second, swelling in the air and turning.
Previously, Xu Ran had no defenses prepared, nearly getting engulfed by the flame. Fortunately, his quick reflexes saved him, or else the Nine-Layered Giant Tower would have long closed down.
Da da----
Xu Ran once more performed a maneuver, heading towards greater heights, quickly reaching a position level with the flame.
This time, he obviously didn’t directly leap over the flame, his legs swung like sweeping kicks, crossing by the highest point of the flame from a distance.
Zi---
The fabric on his legs at that moment was burned out by the flame that hadn’t touched him yet.
When Xu Ran’s legs crossed the very top of the flame, a faint gold hue appeared on them.
Da--
Da--
Da--
Da--
...
In an instant.
Xu Ran’s figure appeared all over the stakes like an unshakable ghost.
Every time his feet landed, the dueling arena resounded with a crisp metallic sound.
The second brother, hearing this sound, widened his eyes instantly.
"His calf bone’s first stage refinement is successful!"
With that said.
His gaze fixed on Xu Ran’s constantly shifting figure, focusing on Xu Ran’s calves.
Sure enough.
On the gold-gleaming legs, were difficult-to-detect golden runes.
