The Lord of Void and Real-Chapter 1599 - 1595: Fire Poison Backlash

"Why are you still standing there, add more fire!" Fire Spirit Child saw Shen Luo standing by and watching, and reminded aloud.

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo hesitated slightly, then took out the replicated Five-Flame Seven-Birds Fan and waved it towards the center of the formation. The roaring Southern Ming Separation Fire immediately swept into the crimson flames.

The temperature inside the formation skyrocketed instantly, and the spreading hot breath made Shen Luo lift his hand to cover his face, feeling incredibly scorching.

As the flames continued to burn, the Vermilion Bird Stone suspended in the center of the formation finally began to light up red, slowly becoming translucent until it resembled a red-hot branding iron.

"It’s enough, place the flying swords in it," Fire Spirit Child said, feeling the temperature.

Without a word, Shen Luo released all eleven flying swords, which shot into the formation one after another.

At that moment, Fire Spirit Child waved his hand downward, and the golden defensive formation above slowly descended, soon to cover the entire flame great formation and all the flying swords.

"Wait a moment," Shen Luo suddenly spoke up.

"What now?" Fire Spirit Child asked, turning his head in surprise.

Shen Luo, somewhat awkwardly holding up the Five-Flame Seven-Birds Fan, said, "It seems they too are attracted by that formation and want to enter."

"Alright," Fire Spirit Child nodded and replied.

Hearing this, Shen Luo no longer hesitated and immediately took out the five flying swords sealed within the Five-Flame Seven-Birds Fan.

The five flying swords, unable to wait any longer, also dashed into the formation in a flash.

Afterward, the golden defensive great formation slowly descended, encompassing all sixteen flying swords within it.

"Now, it’s all up to you," Fire Spirit Child said to Shen Luo with a smile.

"What? It’s up to me?" Shen Luo said in surprise.

"Yes, the formation is already set, I only need to control it slightly, but you need to control the flying swords, continuously rubbing and sharpening them against that Vermilion Bird Stone," Fire Spirit Child explained.

"Understood," Shen Luo nodded and responded upon hearing this.

After speaking, he moved with thought, and the sixteen Pure Yang Flying Swords moved accordingly.

"Go," Shen Luo uttered a low shout.

Instantly inside the great formation, a clamor of ringing sounds erupted, and streams of sword light burst forth as the sixteen flying swords competed to charge towards the now glowing hot Vermilion Bird Stone.

The Pure Yang Flying Sword with the Vermilion Bird Sword Spirit was quicker, reaching first. Its sword edge grazed the edge of the stone and issued a "clang" sound, sparking a string of golden sparks.

Following closely, the three Pure Yang Flying Swords with the Three-legged Golden Crow similarly approached, each grazing past the Vermilion Bird Stone and emitting three "clang" sounds, each bringing up a flurry of sparks.

Only after that did the rest of the flying swords continuously pass by, brushing against the Vermilion Bird Stone, and sending up strings of sparks.

Under his precise control, one by one, the flying swords orderly polished the Vermilion Bird Stone.

Moments later, Shen Luo suddenly noticed, with each collision and friction, all the sword edges of the Pure Yang Flying Swords seemed to also turn crimson due to the high temperature from the friction.

His eyes slightly squinted, he couldn’t help but reveal a look of surprise.

Seeing this, Fire Spirit Child showed a smug expression and asked: "Young Master Shen, have you figured out the trick?"

"This... under repeated collisions and polishing, it seems like something from the Vermilion Bird Stone is gradually merging into the sword edge of the Flying Swords." Shen Luo hesitated.

"Good eyesight, that’s exactly the essence of the Vermilion Bird Stone. It’s also the key to bolster the sharpness of the Pure Yang Flying Sword," Fire Spirit Child nodded and smiled.

Shen Luo’s eyes narrowed, focusing intently on the sword edge being polished in the Great Formation. From the vibrational sounds emitted by all the Flying Swords, he could discern a sense of joy from the swords, seemingly enjoying the process.

As the sound of the sword chants became more frequent, more semi-transparent halos leaked from the Vermilion Bird Stone and were gradually absorbed by the Flying Swords.

The sword light that burst from all the Flying Swords also became more fierce.

"Fire Daoist friend, maybe I’m mistaken, but why do I feel that the speed of all Flying Swords has also increased, and my control over them seems much lighter?" Shen Luo expressed with some surprise.

"What’s so strange about that? Your Flying Swords have become sharper, and the Void creates less resistance to them, naturally making their speed faster when they break through the air. Naturally, your control would become lighter. Remember, a Flying Sword nurtured by oneself is different from a weapon snatched at whim. As the Flying Swords are enhanced, they will reciprocate and enhance you as well, consider it mutual improvement," explained Fire Spirit Child.

At this moment, the main work was in Shen Luo’s hands, so he casually observed the process.

Hearing this, Shen Luo controlled the Flying Swords with even more concentration.

Suddenly, the Formation rang with the whistling of swiftly soaring Flying Swords. The clanging sound of collisions was incessant, and countless sparks shot around, creating a splendid sight.

With time passing by, the volume of the Vermilion Bird Stone gradually decreased, and the speed of the Flying Swords in the Formation was so fast that it became impossible to see clearly, only layers of blurred Sword Shadows and clusters of colliding sparks could be seen.

At that moment, suddenly a loud "BANG" resonated, startling Fire Spirit Child who had been resting his eyes nearby.

Just as he opened his eyes to look, two more collision sounds followed.

"BANG, BANG"

It was two Flying Swords uncontrollably colliding with the golden Defensive Array, causing the entire Formation to tremble mightily, nearly failing to maintain itself.

Fire Spirit Child quickly performed Magical Tactics with his hands, attentively controlling the Gu Xuan star disk to reinforce the golden Defensive Array.

"Young Master Shen, what are you doing?" he asked, annoyed.

However, when he turned to look at Shen Luo, he was shocked to find Shen Luo sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes tightly shut, his clothes completely soaked with sweat and his skin on his face and body turned a bright red, akin to a steamed crab.

His eyebrows were deeply furrowed, showing a face full of pain, but his hands still held the Sword technique, clearly still maintaining full control over the Flying Swords.

"Hey, Young Master Shen, are you okay?" Fire Spirit Child shouted anxiously upon seeing this.

At that moment, Shen Luo slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with blood silk and surrounded by a peculiar golden light pattern at the pupils, looking rather strange.

He did not respond verbally, only glanced at the Flying Swords in the Formation and silently shook his head.

Fire Spirit Child understood his intention, which was to persevere and refine the Flying Swords before addressing anything else.

"Sigh, your condition is clearly a result of the fire poison backlash, yet you’re still thinking about refining the swords. Aren’t you even more obsessed than me?" Fire Spirit Child sighed deeply.

"It’s almost done, help me..." Shen Luo said with determination, gritting his teeth.
