　　Ye Wushuang leaned against the stone wall and said with a smile, “Third Master Zhao has quite the eye—you even recognized the Heavenly Fire Essence Stone. That really surprised me！”
　　”You brat, what are you doing here？” At the first glance of Ye Wushuang, Zhao Tianhe already felt a hint of fear in his heart.
　　First of all, it’s already widely known that Ye Wushuang, despite not having reached the Star-Plucking Realm, possesses the strength to kill early-stage Star-Plucking Realm experts.
　　Secondly…
　　How the hell is this guy standing here？
　　The four of them hadn’t noticed him at all just now！
　　This alone proves that Ye Wushuang’s strength far surpasses theirs.
　　”Why am I here？”
　　After a moment’s thought, Ye Wushuang grinned, “Ever since you came down from above, I’ve been right behind you. You just didn’t notice！”
　　Zhao Tianhe immediately roared, “Fight your way out and send word！”
　　In Zhao Tianhe’s eyes, no matter how formidable Ye Wushuang was, the four of them—especially since he himself was at the peak of the Delusion-Shattering Seventh Tribulation Realm—could at least stall Ye Wushuang for some time.
　　As Zhao Tianhe shouted, he had already charged forward.
　　But the next moment.
　　BAM！！！
　　A dull thud erupted as Zhao Tianhe took a heavy blow to his abdomen. His charging figure crumpled like a shrimp, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out.
　　Immediately after, another loud thud sounded as Ye Wushuang’s fist slammed into Zhao Tianhe’s back. Another gush of blood spewed from Zhao Tianhe’s mouth, and he collapsed to the ground, trembling uncontrollably.
　　Zhao Quan and the other two were completely stunned.
　　Third Master at the peak of the Delusion Realm was taken down by Ye Wushuang in just a few moves, let alone the three of them！
　　Bang！！！
　　Ye Wushuang stepped on Zhao Tianhe’s back, glanced at Zhao Quan and the other two, and said with a faint smile, “If you had noticed something odd and alerted the others, it would’ve been troublesome for me. But now…”
　　”Ah…”
　　A scream rang out as Zhao Tianhe, lying on the ground, had his entire back crushed under Ye Wushuang’s foot.
　　”Kill him！” Zhao Quan roared and charged forward.
　　Bang　bang　bang…
　　Soon, inside the chamber, Zhao Quan and the other two became corpses.
　　Seeing this, Zhao Tianhe’s face turned deathly pale.
　　Ye Wushuang leaned down, looked at Zhao Tianhe, and said indifferently, “The matters between the Spirit Sword Pavilion and the Sacred Sky Sect… outsiders should stay out of it.”
　　A　squelching　sound.
　　The long sword slashed across, and blood gushed from Zhao Tianhe’s throat.
　　Ye Wushuang gazed at the Heavenly Fire Essence Stone on the stone pillar in the room, feeling a surge of excitement.
　　Heavenly Fire！
　　Stronger than beast flames, stronger than earthly fires, with remarkably high intelligence.
　　The Heavenly Fire Essence Stone formed at its core is incredibly miraculous.
　　And it’s the most suitable for him right now.
　　Previously, when he passively reached the Delusional Self Seventh Tribulation Realm, Ye Wushuang felt no joy at all, but rather a faint sense of worry.
　　But now, with this piece of Heavenly Fire Essence Stone, he could perfectly resolve the issue of his excessive advancement.
　　”Four Symbols Earth Core Flame, come forth！”
　　Ye Wushuang smiled faintly, flicked his finger, and strands of flame coiled out from within his body.
　　The flames transformed into a winged fire beast, but this beast had four heads.
　　One resembled a dragon’s head, one a roc’s head, one a turtle’s head, and one a tiger’s head.
　　The four heads displayed expressions revealing different emotions.
　　The Four Symbols Earth Core Flame was an earth fire and had been fused with Ye Wushuang for a long time, so his control over it was extremely refined.
　　Just as Zhao Tianhe had worried, this was a Heavenly Fire Essence Stone—its radiant glow alone felt warm and pleasant, but direct contact would burn even a Star-Picking Realm expert.
　　It required cold-attribute spiritual materials like frost iron or ice to suppress its fiery energy and slowly refine it.
　　Ye Wushuang didn’t have any cold-attribute spiritual materials on him, but he had earth fire.
　　The rank of earth fire was indeed lower than that of heavenly fire, but what lay before him wasn’t a true heavenly fire—it was a Heavenly Fire Essence Stone.
　　Ye Wushuang spoke up： “Since ancient times, the birth of celestial flames has occurred under unique conditions, where the flames develop intelligence within, the intelligence grows, and the flames themselves mature.”
　　”Another way is through the transformation, sublimation, and advancement of terrestrial flames into celestial flames.”
　　”This celestial flame essence stone may not guarantee your promotion, but it will undoubtedly bring earth-shaking changes to your terrestrial flame. Devour it, and you can grow. In the future, you will surely have the opportunity to advance into a celestial flame！”
　　The serpent head of the Four Symbols Earth Core Flame gazed at the celestial flame essence stone, nodding with gleaming eyes.
　　”Of course, the process will inevitably be painful, just like the arduous path of a martial artist’s advancement. For a terrestrial flame to transform into a celestial flame, it’s even harder.”
　　Ye Wushuang laughed： “But this time, I can lend you a hand. You devour the celestial flame essence stone to enhance yourself, while transferring a portion of the flame energy into my body for me to digest. This will help temper the flaw of my overly rapid realm advancement. Plus… I have a spiritual art that can be refined using the energy of the celestial flame essence stone—perfect timing！”
　　As Ye Wushuang’s words fell, the Four Symbols Earth Core Flame pounced forward at that very moment.
　　In an instant, the Four Symbols Earth Core Flame lunged onto the celestial flame essence stone, and the flames and the essence stone’s energy began devouring each other.
　　And immediately, a connection was established between the Four Symbols Earth Core Flame and Ye Wushuang, as rolling waves of fiery energy surged into Ye Wushuang’s body.
　　”It’s begun！”
　　Without any hesitation, Ye Wushuang immediately stirred the spiritual energy within his body, unleashing a surge of momentum.
　　The terrifying fiery energy completely incinerated Ye Wushuang’s clothing, with flames coiling and rolling across the surface of his body.
　　At this moment, a spiritual art rapidly circulated within Ye Wushuang’s mind.
　　”Great Flame Body Tempering Art！”
　　In Ye Wushuang’s mind, streams of characters flickered incessantly.
　　The Great Flame Body Tempering Art was an Emperor-grade spiritual art.
　　This spiritual art was obtained when Ye Wushuang’s eighth soul reincarnated as Ling Shengtian in a past life.
　　However, by the time he acquired this art, Ye Wushuang had already reached the Sage Heaven Realm and was no longer suited for cultivation.
　　Yet, Ye Wushuang had meticulously studied this art back then—it used the essence of flames to temper the essence of the human body.
　　The most profound aspect was that cultivating this art required forging one’s body with tyrannical elemental forces like fire and lightning.
　　Under such tempering, a martial artist’s spiritual energy would fundamentally carry the attributes of fire and lightning.
　　Such spiritual energy… one could only imagine how tyrannical it would be！
　　More importantly, Ye Wushuang’s cultivation of the Seven Revolutions Sacred Body Technique at the Delusional Realm has already greatly enhanced his physical and spiritual strength. Continuing to practice the Great Flame Body Tempering Technique would further amplify his physical and spiritual power.
　　Of course, at this moment, Ye Wushuang’s cultivation of this spiritual art cannot succeed, but he has managed to achieve the initial stage.
　　Only when he truly reaches the Star-Plucking Transformation Realm can the full potential of this spiritual art be unleashed.
　　Currently, Ye Wushuang is essentially multitasking in three ways.
　　On one hand, he observes the Four Symbols Earth Core Flame’s absorption of the Heavenly Fire Essence Stone; on another, he uses the pure flame energy emitted by the Heavenly Fire Essence Stone to refine and digest the flaws of his Seven Tribulations Realm; and on yet another, he practices the Great Flame Body Tempering Technique…
　　Time passed bit by bit in this manner.
　　Inside the chamber, flames soared to the sky！
　　The temperature in the entire chamber had unknowingly reached a terrifying level, so much so that even early or mid-stage Star-Plucking Transformation Realm experts would likely be reduced to ashes upon arrival.
　　Suddenly, at one moment.
　　The flames in the chamber gradually dissipated, the fiery light receded step by step, and the temperature also slowly decreased.
　　And at the very center of the chamber, a figure stood stark naked…
