Chapter 281

Full Open Fire

On the platform, more than half of the arcanists had already completed their refinement and were silently sitting on the platform. After all, these hundred arcanists were selected from thousands of others and could definitely be considered as the elites of this Arcana Ceremony. During the refinement process of the Seal Breaking Crystal, there would naturally not be any mistakes that would lead to failure.

As for whether the quality of the Seal Breaking Crystal that they refined would be of high quality, that would depend on their level and performance.

Crack!

The sound of the Yuan Crystal shattering was very soft, but on this pin-drop platform, it was like the beating of a drum. Immediately, it attracted the attention of the arcanists who had finished refining the Yuan Crystals and were sitting cross-legged on the ground.

When everyone's gazes converged on the source of the sound, they were surprised to find that the unlucky one who had failed in refining was actually the young man who possessed the Human Fire, Zhuowen. Their surprised gazes revealed a gloating expression.

"What an unlucky fellow. What's the use of having the Human Fire if you don't have the strength?

That would instead be a waste of a treasure like the Human Fire. "Su Qi's pretty face immediately revealed a trace of ridicule as she unceremoniously mocked.

Beside her, Su Yang only casually glanced at Zhuowen and no longer paid attention to him. Although Zhuowen's previous performances had moved him, it was only so-so. To him, the gap between him and Zhuowen was as wide as a chasm. With his strength, there was simply no need for him to bother with the weak.

Zhou Yi, who had been silent all this while, cast a side glance at Zhuowen in a somewhat thought-provoking manner. He sneered and no longer paid attention to him. To him, his main opponent was Su Yang and Zhuowen was just a small character.

On the contrary, Xue Nai, who disliked Zhuowen in the beginning, only sighed. After all, Zhuowen represented their Broken Rock City this time. Even if she did not like Zhuowen, she still hoped that Zhuowen could bring glory to Broken Rock City. However, from her point of view, this idea of hers had become too unrealistic.

The people in the VIP seats who had been paying attention to the Arcana Ceremony all let out a sigh after discovering that Zhuowen had actually failed in refining. Originally, Zhuowen's stunning performance in the first round and his use of the Human Fire in the second round had caused many people in the VIP seats to be quite optimistic about this young man. However, with the failure of the refinement, this optimism was replaced by disappointment.

"He failed?" Master Ku Ya's face suddenly revealed a trace of bitterness as he muttered with a somewhat absent-minded gaze.

Once Zhuowen failed, it was destined that the bet between Qiu Chou and Master Huo Yun would end prematurely. Their Broken Rock City's Arcana Guild would undoubtedly have lost. Master Ku Ya even wanted to cry when he thought of having to pay the price of a Grade Four Origin Array. There were only a few Grade Four Origin Arrays in their Arcana Guild. Now that they had to take out two of them at once, it was simply like digging a piece of meat out of their heart.

Qiu Chou frowned slightly. He also did not expect that Zhuowen would actually fail in the refining of the Seal Crystal Fragment in the second round. This was something he did not expect.

"The result of the bet is already very obvious. This Zhuowen has been eliminated prematurely. You have lost!

Hehe, I'm afraid that your Broken Rock City will have to hand over another Grade Four Origin Array!

Haha. "Master Huo Yun's face was full of pride and he could not help but laugh out loud.

"Old dog, you're laughing very happily. Do you feel like you're asking for a beating?"

Qiu Chou's hawk-like sharp eyes stared coldly at Master Huo Yun, causing the latter's smile to freeze. He was so embarrassed that he did not dare to laugh again. Obviously, the memory of Qiu Chou's vicious beating just now was still fresh in his mind.

"The time it takes for an incense stick to burn hasn't passed yet. That means that Zhuowen still has a chance. Old dog, you're making a conclusion too early!" Qiu Chou coldly snorted and said somewhat irritably.

"Sigh!

There's only a third of an incense stick left. It's impossible to finish refining the Seal Crystal Fragment in such a short amount of time! "Master Ku Ya's face was ashen at this time as he smiled bitterly.

"No one knows what the result will be until the last moment.

Let's continue watching. Maybe Zhuowen can create a miracle. "Qiu Chou narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

Although Master Huo Yun, who was sitting in the back row, did not dare to say anything, his face was full of ridicule. In his opinion, Qiu Chou's behavior was simply self-deception.

On the bluestone platform, Zhuowen looked at the shattered crystal in his hand with a bitter smile. He could not help but mutter, "It seems that the Yuan Liquid refined with Human Fire must be refined with Human Level Cold Qi. Otherwise, the two extreme energies will inevitably become extremely unbalanced, causing the refined Yuan Crystal to shatter."

At this point, Zhuowen turned his head and glanced at the incense burner not far away. He found that there was only a third of the incense stick left. He took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "It seems that it's impossible to refine the Seal Crystal Fragment in such a short amount of time with only the Perfect Second Level Mental Strength. It's necessary to raise my Mental Strength to the Initial Third Level.

I also need to use Earth Fire. Otherwise, it will be difficult to suppress the extreme cold. "

In the beginning, in order to not attract too much attention, Zhuowen's Advanced Third Level Mental Strength was suppressed to the Perfect Second Level. Now, he had no choice but to raise his Mental Strength to the Initial Third Level.

Thinking of this, Zhuowen picked up another Yuan Nucleus on the bluestone platform. There were three sets of raw materials for the Seal Crystal Fragment on the bluestone platform. After Zhuowen failed the first time, he naturally had a second chance.

When Zhuowen picked up the Yuan Nucleus again, it immediately caused the platform to burst into laughter. There was only a third of an incense stick left. To refine the Seal Crystal Fragment in such a short amount of time, perhaps only Su Yang, whose Mental Strength had reached the Advanced Third Level and who also had Earth Fire in his hands, could do it.

"Does this kid still want to struggle before death?

Only my big brother can refine the Seal Crystal Fragment in such a short amount of time. Does this kid really think that with his Perfect Second Level Mental Strength and that impressive-looking but useless black flame, he can really complete the refinement in such a short amount of time? "Su Qi's pretty face sneered.

Xue Nai could not bear to listen to this. After all, Zhuowen was an Arcanist from Broken Rock City. Su Qi's ridicule immediately made Xue Nai feel very uncomfortable in her heart. She then said coldly, "Can you shut up?

Zhuowen didn't provoke you, so why do you have to hold on to his shortcomings and not let go? "

"Oh!

I just said a few words about that trash, and you, the so-called genius of Broken Rock City, jumped out to defend him?

Why don't you take a look at yourself? Your strength is inferior to mine, and even your Origin Fire is inferior to mine. What right do you have to criticize me? "Su Qi's gaze turned to Xue Nai, and her tone became even more arrogant and savage.

"You …" Xue Nai was so angry that her pretty face flushed red. Just as she was about to retort, a tidal wave of Mental Energy immediately spread across the entire platform …

"What powerful Mental Energy. This Mental Energy is no longer weaker than mine. It has also reached the level of Initial Grade Three!

Who is it? "

Xue Nai tilted her head slightly and looked at the source of the Mental Energy. A figure with a focused expression suddenly appeared in her eyes. "It's him … Zhuowen?"

Su Qi's attention was also attracted by the sudden appearance of the Mental Energy. When she realized that the person who had released this powerful Mental Energy was actually Zhuowen, she could not help but be stunned.

"It's actually Initial Grade Three Mental Energy. This guy has been hiding his strength from the beginning?"

Su Qi was somewhat bewildered as she looked at the figure who was focused on the Yuan Nucleus in his hand. She could not help but exclaim.

However, this trace of astonishment only lasted for a moment. Su Qi once again sneered and said, "So what if he has Initial Grade Three Mental Energy?

Even I cannot complete the Seal Crystal Fragment in such a short amount of time, let alone this guy. "

Chi!

The moment Su Qi's words left her mouth, the focused Zhuowen suddenly moved. His foot suddenly stomped on the ground. Soon after, an endless amount of lightning and flames entwined around it shot out from his back. Lightning and fire corresponded to each other, just like a couple dancing a dance.

"This is … the Earthly Fire Nine Heavens Thunder Flame?"

The smile on Su Qi's pretty face instantly froze when she saw the lightning and fire shooting out from Zhuowen's back. Soon after, she cried out in disbelief.

The Arcana Masters on the platform, whose faces were originally filled with sneers, were now slightly agape. They stared blankly at the figure on the nearby stone platform, who was completely surrounded by the Nine Heavens Thunder Flame. For a time, the platform was completely silent …

After seeing the Nine Heavens Thunder Flame, the originally calm and collected Su Yang's hands trembled. His face was no longer calm as he stared straight at the Nine Heavens Thunder Flame on the surface of Zhuowen's body. His pupils had shrunk to the size of needles …

The power of the Nine Heavens Thunder Flame was not inferior to his Star Flame. In fact, it was even stronger than his Star Flame. He did not expect that the youth Zhuowen, whom he had always overlooked, would not only erupt with Initial Grade Three Mental Energy at the last moment, but also use an Earthly Fire like the Nine Heavens Thunder Flame.

At this moment, Zhuowen's expression was extremely focused. His Initial Grade Three Mental Energy poured out and poured into the Yuan Nucleus in his hand. His fingers moved nimbly, and the Nine Heavens Thunder Flame swept out with his movements. It actually turned into a palm and swept up all the supplementary materials on the stone platform. The scorching temperature continuously refined the supplementary materials, turning them into liquid.

While urging his Mental Energy to refine his soul, he also controlled the Nine Heavens Thunder Flame to refine the supplementary materials. Who would have thought that Zhuowen would actually multitask, carrying out the first step of refining his soul and the second step of extracting his soul at the same time?

Multitasking, refining his soul and extracting his soul at the same time!

At this moment, everyone who was paying attention to Zhuowen was stunned. Refining a Yuan Crystal was extremely dangerous. It required a careful and meticulous process. Step by step, it had to be carried out strictly. Otherwise, the medicine would be destroyed and the person involved would die. The gains would not make up for the losses.

But now, Zhuowen had broken the conventional pattern. Not only did he not do it step by step, but he also carried out the most dangerous step of refining his soul and the most difficult step of extracting his soul at the same time. This was something that no one had ever heard or seen before. It was a refining method that no one had ever seen before.

But now, it was right in front of everyone's eyes.
