Douluo Starting with the Chaos Divine Examination

Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Heavenly Flame - Bone-Chilling Flame



While meditating, Yafei focused her mind, guiding a strand of the Bone-Chilling Flame to circulate within her body. The icy layers formed by the Ice Spirit Cold Spring gradually melted away. 

Even though the flame was only a small wisp, the destructive power it contained was overwhelming. If the ice layers were fully consumed, Yafei would face certain death by immolation.

Time passed slowly. Through immense effort, Yafei managed to gather the flame into a small, molten white mass. However, as the flame condensed, its violent and terrifying nature intensified, causing the protective ice layers to disintegrate at an alarming rate. Her meridians, exposed to the extreme heat, began to deform, stretched to their limit like taut strings. The ongoing strain pushed her body and mind to the edge of collapse.

The pain from the flame's relentless refining scorched her nerves and tested her will. She began to feel dizzy as her mental defenses weakened.

Just as she was about to give in, two streams of immense energy surged into her body through her collarbone.

"Master!" Yafei murmured.

"Stay focused. Guard your heart and mind. This is a battle of life and death—one wrong thought, and it could end you," Mu Chen commanded.

Yafei exhaled deeply, steadying herself and calming her turbulent emotions.

The energy Mu Chen infused into her body acted like two mighty rivers, suppressing the wild energy of the flame. Under his guidance, the flame's violent nature was subdued to a level Yafei could manage.

The next phase was tedious and repetitive. By methodically circulating her energy, Yafei gradually refined the essence of the Bone-Chilling Flame. Once tamed, she would store it in the Spirit Storage Gem, completing the process of absorption and refinement.

Time passed. The molten white glow of the flame shimmered, radiating intense heat. Ripples of white energy spread outward, turning everything on the mountain peak into ash. Even nearby rocks crumbled into powder, leaving behind patches of gray residue.

Mu Chen, meanwhile, spent his time catching wild game and grilling meat to pass the hours. Whenever he grew tired, he napped briefly on the barren mountaintop.

Finally, a faint cracking sound broke the silence. Mu Chen opened his eyes to see the energy cocoon surrounding Yafei shattering into countless fragments, dispersing into the air.

Yafei's alluring eyes, framed by long, fluttering lashes, slowly opened. For a brief moment, her pupils gleamed with a pale white light before returning to their natural black hue. The refinement process had subtly enhanced her vision, granting her an unspoken benefit.

She stretched her limbs, releasing a series of crisp pops as her joints realigned.

"Did I… succeed in acquiring the Heavenly Flame?" Yafei's eyes sparkled with excitement and satisfaction.

The Bone-Chilling Flame was a legendary treasure capable of challenging even Dou Huang (Battle Emperor) experts. Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined owning such a powerful weapon.

Having refined the Heavenly Flame, Yafei had officially stepped into the ranks of true powerhouses.

"Ahem… before celebrating, shouldn't you consider putting on some clothes?" Mu Chen's voice interrupted her thoughts, his tone teasing as his eyes gleamed with amusement.

Yafei froze, glancing down at her exposed body. Her face turned crimson as she realized her situation. She felt as if she might die of embarrassment.

This was mortifying.

This was humiliating.

This was awkward beyond belief.

She had never imagined that she would one day appear like this in front of Mu Chen.

Looking around for something to cover herself with, Yafei realized that everything on the mountaintop—plants, stones, and even soil—had been incinerated by the flame. There wasn't a single hiding spot.

"Master?" Yafei instinctively covered her chest with her arms.

"Hmm?" Mu Chen replied nonchalantly.

"Could you… turn around? This is… really inconvenient," Yafei asked shyly, her voice trembling.

"Of course," Mu Chen said, still smirking.

Soon, the sound of rustling fabric came from behind him.

"Alright, Master. You can turn around now," Yafei called out.

Mu Chen turned to see Yafei standing before him, her cheeks slightly flushed, dressed in a tight-fitting crimson robe. The exquisite craftsmanship of the robe highlighted her stunning curves, while her long, snowy-white legs peeked out from beneath the hem. A silver belt cinched her waist, accentuating her slender figure.

Meeting her gaze, Mu Chen couldn't help but acknowledge her beauty. Yafei was indeed a rare jewel, an enchantress capable of captivating nations.

"Unleash your aura," Mu Chen instructed.

"Huh?" Yafei asked, confused.

"Release your full aura. Let me see what level you've reached," he clarified.

Following his instructions, Yafei let her Dou Qi surge outward. The energy she released was several times stronger than before.

"Eight-Star Dou Shi (Battle Master)!" Mu Chen remarked.

"Only eight stars?" Yafei sounded slightly disappointed.

"That's already impressive. Absorbing a Heavenly Flame boosted your rank by three stars. For most people, this would take at least half a year. You've just saved yourself six months of effort. Furthermore, your Dou Qi has become far more refined. Without even using the Heavenly Flame, I'd wager you could fight on par with a One-Star Dou Da Shi (Battle Grandmaster)," Mu Chen explained.

"Really?" Yafei's eyes lit up with excitement. After a moment, she looked around at the scorched earth and asked, "Master, how long was I cultivating?"

"About three days," Mu Chen replied.

"Three days?" Yafei's eyes widened in shock.

That meant her body had been exposed in front of Mu Chen for three whole days.

"What's wrong? Is there an issue?" Mu Chen asked knowingly, steering the conversation away from her embarrassment. "Refining a Heavenly Flame isn't something that happens overnight. The fact that you succeeded in just three days is already remarkable."

Yafei didn't respond, her

gaze softening as she stared at Mu Chen with a mix of gratitude and admiration.
