Chapter 386: Chapter 386 - Purple Spirit Flame
Even the Medicine God Pavilion’s Lord felt somewhat stirred.
"This kid has lost his mind completely." Mr. Adams couldn’t stop himself from grinding his teeth.
He shoved the door open, spun around, and stormed out.
"Where are you heading?" Someone next to him questioned.
Mr. Adams replied icily, "We can’t allow him to succeed. We need to figure out how to block him!"
"Block him? Can’t you see all those people down there?" The nearby Grandmaster sneered.
"The Medicine God Pavilion’s Lord is still standing there—do you think he’s just decoration?"
Mr. Adams spoke through clenched teeth, "We don’t have the luxury to think about that. We’ll handle things as they come."
With those words, Mr. Adams exited the hotel, cautiously making his way toward the heavenly staircase.
——
At this point, I had already struggled my way up to the seventeenth level.
The instant I made contact with the seventeenth level, my whole body burst into flames!
The fire seemed to originate from deep inside me—even my organs were being attacked!
The blood I was losing at that moment transformed into a blazing inferno!
"Mason Raymond!" The crowd below immediately cried out in alarm!
My entire form was consumed by flames, and these fires were about to completely destroy my flesh and consciousness!
"Both body and soul annihilated..." The Medicine God Pavilion’s Lord whispered quietly, his expression also showing a trace of worry.
Nobody had ever forced their way up the heavenly staircase before, so no one knew what the outcome would be!
If forcing one’s way up the heavenly staircase resulted in total destruction of body and soul, then all would be lost!
"Aaah!!"
Engulfed in fire, I still refused to surrender!
My body had nearly shriveled up, and my blood appeared to have been completely burned away!
"I have to get that cultivation method!!" As I released a rage-filled scream, my body glowed with golden light!
Streams of consciousness shot out from my forehead!
This consciousness power incredibly took on my physical form, rushing toward the eighteenth level!
"Is... is that consciousness?" Right then, even the Medicine God Pavilion’s Lord gazed in amazement!
The fireball seemed to snap back to awareness, charging toward my cluster of consciousness!
But right then, my body actually extended its hand!
On my nearly destroyed hand, a pale blue spirit flame danced.
Under my intense control, this spirit flame created a massive hand!
The giant hand stretched forward directly, seizing the ball of heavenly fire!
The clash between spirit flame and heavenly fire began at that moment!
"Ah!!" I stared with wide eyes, bellowing in fury!
And in that instant, my consciousness actually dove into the spirit flame!
Then, the ball of blue spirit flame took on my appearance!
"What kind of method is this?!" Everyone was stunned by what they witnessed!
Even the well-informed Medicine God Pavilion’s Lord’s eyes revealed a hint of confusion.
Combining spirit flame with consciousness? Never heard of such a thing!
How exactly did this guy pull that off!
My spirit flame body crashed violently into the heavenly flames!
This spirit flame seemed to carry my unbreakable determination!
With a tight fist, my blue fist slammed hard into the heavenly flames!
"Huh!"
The heavenly flames were shapeless and infinite!
My fist couldn’t make contact with them at all!
The heavenly flames scattered and reformed, never-ending!
At this pace, I wouldn’t be able to last!
"Anyone who tries to block me, I’ll destroy them!" I roared like a madman! The spirit flame incredibly expanded at that moment!
From below, I looked like a blue titan standing on the heavenly staircase!
"You can’t stop me!" My voice seemed filled with insanity and terror!
The next second, my action left everyone speechless!
The figure created from spirit flame opened its mouth and devoured the heavenly flames!
"Has he... lost his sanity?!" Fifth Elder shouted.
"Master Raymond... actually consumed the heavenly flames?"
"Pavilion Master, what... what’s happening?"
Nobody understood what this action would lead to, not even the Medicine God Pavilion’s Lord.
"Hoo..."
The blue fire wrapped around the red heavenly flames.
The heavenly flames went wild inside the spiritual fire, beginning as a tiny spark, eventually turning the whole spiritual fire red!
"Hell!" Everyone drew sharp breaths when they saw this!
Had I failed?
At last, the spiritual fire appeared to be turning against me at that moment!
The two flames twisted and combined continuously!
This process dragged on for ages, like an extended battle!
Everyone was tense, making fists with their hands.
This sight was unheard of!
"Hm?"
Right when everyone was in panic, the Pavilion Master’s eyes sparked with a glimmer.
"Could it be... what I’m thinking?" The Pavilion Master no longer showed his earlier commanding presence but looked like a young woman, placing her hand over her mouth.
"Pavilion Master, what’s wrong?" Fifth Elder asked nervously.
The Pavilion Master gestured toward the two flames on the heavenly staircase and said, "Look, the two flames appear to be merging."
Taking a look, it was exactly as the Pavilion Master had described.
"Blue and red combining... a Purple Spirit Flame?" Fifth Elder was first to understand.
"Exactly." The Pavilion Master gave a slight nod.
Right after he spoke, a soft purple shade slowly formed at the core of the two flames!
The moment the purple emerged, it expanded quickly!
In mere minutes, the heavenly flames and spirit fire vanished, replaced by a purple flame!
The flame, still shaped like me, appeared incredibly powerful when seen from below!
"Whew..."
A breeze passed by, and the flames rushed into my body.
Finally, everything became quiet.
I collapsed on the heavenly staircase, completely still.
Everyone watched the scene anxiously; they gazed at me with deep worry in their hearts.
Thirty seconds passed.
I, lying on the heavenly staircase, slowly got to my feet.
I opened my palm, and a purple spirit flame flickered inside it.
"Yes! He did it!"
Cheers erupted from below!
Even the Medicine God Pavilion’s Lord was moved at that moment.
"This guy... truly beyond expectations," the Pavilion Master murmured.
No one had imagined that at death’s door, I would have such a daring plan!
On top of the heavenly staircase, I stayed quiet.
The next move was the giant hand; as long as I stepped onto it, I could get the cultivation technique.
Plus, I would become the first person in history to force my way up the heavenly staircase!
My face became completely calm, and I took a step toward the giant hand.
"You will not step onto the heavenly staircase!"
At that instant, an angry yell came from the darkness!
Then, they witnessed a huge hand striking viciously toward me!
"Mason!" Below, Fifth Elder immediately released a worried roar!
