Chapter 2581: Chapter 2584: Why Suppress It

"Don’t worry, this Golden Annihilation Flame has already been refined by me. It only wanted to rebel when my Primordial Spirit was weak. Over the years, it has been contending with Long Yan. My Primordial Spirit Power has recovered by ten percent, which is enough to control it. If I didn’t fear Long Yan, I would have left here long ago!"

Jin Baisheng said confidently.

"Alright! Then I’ll start now!"

Jiang Chen nodded, extending a single hand.

Roar!

A dragon’s roar sounded from within Jiang Chen’s body. All 720 acupoints opened, and a golden light emerged from his palm.

It was a phantom small dragon radiating a golden glow. As soon as it appeared, it smelled something delicious, opened its mouth wide, and with a mouth as large as a millstone, it swallowed Long Yan whole.

"Brother Jiang, step back!"

At the same time, Jin Baisheng shouted in a low voice, his body turning into a golden radiance and merging into the Spiritual Fire.

A scorching temperature instantly emanated from within the Spiritual Fire.

Jiang Chen was startled as this temperature actually began to scorch his Spiritual Power and Power of the Great Dao. In his Sea of Consciousness, a blood-red light flashed, protecting it. However, due to the departure of the Ancestral Dragon Qi, his Spiritual Power seemed to evaporate completely.

Swoosh! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Jiang Chen quickly retracted the Dragon Qi and flashed away from the Spiritual Fire, only stopping a thousand meters away.

At this moment, Jiang Chen’s face was paper-white, and ninety percent of his Spiritual Power had evaporated, not just in the Dantian, but also in the acupoints!

"This Spiritual Fire is so strong even unconsciously. If someone controlled it..."

Jiang Chen’s eyes brightened, recalling his initial purpose for this journey. He decided to ask Brother Jin for a trace of the Spiritual Fire’s essence after he subdued it.

Blaze!

At this moment, the Spiritual Fire was fiercely churning, the fireball expanding and contracting, continually emitting waves of scorching heat.

After watching for a while, Jiang Chen sat cross-legged in contemplation, his consciousness diving into the Dantian.

In the Dantian, a golden small dragon was swimming joyously in the Spiritual Power Lake.

Jiang Chen dared not casually disperse the Dragon Qi into the acupoints, unsure whether the Dragon Flame within it would harm him.

Buzz!

A strand of Primordial Spirit Power appeared in the Dantian, penetrating into the golden small dragon.

Huh?

A look of surprise flashed across Jiang Chen’s face, immediately followed by a burst of joy.

Upon entering the golden small dragon, the Primordial Spirit encountered the Dragon Flame. However, the flame was non-aggressive, instead refining the strand of Primordial Spirit Power.

"Is it really so obedient?"

Jiang Chen was momentarily surprised and then had an epiphany.

This was, after all, the Lord Ancestral Dragon’s Lifebound Dragon Flame, and now, encountering the master of the Lifebound Dragon Qi, it probably mistook him for the Lord Ancestral Dragon!

If it can refine the Primordial Spirit, can it refine the Spiritual Power too?

Jiang Chen’s eyes sparkled as he cautiously controlled the Dragon Qi to release a bit of the Dragon Flame.

Whoosh!

The already small Spiritual Power Lake in the Dantian promptly ignited.

Startled, Jiang Chen was just about to control the Dragon Qi to absorb the Dragon Flame when he suddenly noticed the Spiritual Power becoming extraordinarily pure, yet the Dantian’s barriers remained unscathed!

"It works!"

Jiang Chen was overjoyed, initially worried that after leaving Changling Academy, he wouldn’t find a good place to refine Spiritual Power. Unexpectedly, the Dragon Flame could refine it!

His Primordial Spirit had the Blood Fiend Liquid Cluster for refinement, and now with the Dragon Flame refining his Spiritual Power, he needn’t worry about the refinement of these two powers!

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a cyan flame appeared in the Dantian, directly merging with the Dragon Flame.

"Ah!"

Jiang Chen was surprised, about to stop it, only to find that the Dragon Flame wrapped around the Rejuvenation Flame, absorbing and refining it entirely, seemingly becoming slightly stronger.

"This... How will I refine pills in the future?"

Jiang Chen exclaimed in surprise.

Then, he smacked his forehead and laughed, "I was being silly. With such a good flame like the Dragon Flame, how could I not refine pills?"

Gazing at the Dragon Flame in his Sea of Consciousness, Jiang Chen smiled subtly, "Absorbing Spiritual Fire for evolution? Its current power is no longer typical of the Dragon Flame. After all these years, it has probably been reduced to less than a fraction. I guess I should search for more Spiritual Fires in the future!"

Muttering softly for a while, Jiang Chen raised his hand, and a small mountain of Spirit Stones appeared beside him.

"Next, let’s start recovering and refining!"

Jiang Chen took two Spirit Stones, slowly closing his eyes.

The Spirit Stones gradually dissolved, the Spiritual Power in the Dantian slowly increasing, then diminishing under the Dragon Flame’s refinement.

Time quietly passed in cultivation!

Swoosh!

Uncertain how much time had passed, the temperature of the ancestral land suddenly dropped to normal, and a golden silhouette appeared in front of Jiang Chen.

"Dragon Flame refining Spiritual Power—Brother Jiang’s foundation will probably be the strongest on the continent!"

Jin Baisheng murmured softly, not disturbing Jiang Chen, sat down cross-legged, and began recovering his Primordial Spirit.

Time passed unknowingly, and the small mountain of Spirit Stones disappeared, reduced to a powdery heap beside Jiang Chen.

Buzz!

A powerful aura burst from Jiang Chen’s body, with ten Great Dao Auras erupting instantaneously, ten Great Dao Wheels of Light appearing around him.

"A Son of Heavenly Dao with Ten Perfect Divine Circles?!"

Jin Baisheng opened his eyes wide in surprise.

No wonder Lord Ancestral Dragon chose Brother Jiang as his successor!

With a sigh of admiration, Jin Baisheng softly said, "Is he about to break through to the Void Refinement Realm? With ten Divine Circles, his Void Refinement Realm might rival those in the late Void Refinement Realm!"

Buzz!

Just as Jin Baisheng thought Jiang Chen would shatter the mirror, Jiang Chen’s ascending aura began to weaken, eventually receding back inside him, along with the Great Dao Wheels of Light returning to the Sea of Consciousness.

"What’s happening? He’s already comprehended the Great Dao, and his Spiritual Power is more than abundant. Why did he not break through... was it self-suppression?"

Jin Baisheng stared at Jiang Chen, puzzled.

A moment later, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes.

"Brother Jin, did you subdue the Spiritual Fire?"

Jiang Chen asked with a gentle smile.

"I did!"

Jin Baisheng nodded, then asked puzzledly, "Brother Jiang, why did you purposely suppress your realm?"

"Oh, the Great Continental Competition isn’t far off, and this competition is held for..."

Jiang Chen explained softly, also mentioning the Extraterritorial Battlefield.

"These damned bastards! After so many years, they still won’t give up!"

Jin Baisheng’s eyes flashed with icy killing intent.

Jiang Chen fell silent, understanding Jin Baisheng’s anger toward the Extraterrestrial Alien Race, which had brought ruin upon him and the Gold-devouring Rat Clan.

"Brother Jiang, when introducing my clan’s situation earlier, you mentioned wanting to incorporate Spiritual Fire into your combat skills, right?"

After collecting his thoughts, Jin Baisheng gently inquired.
