Chapter 777 Departure Fire Divine Jade!
The Imperial War Chariot stopped in mid-air, unable to ascend even one more centimeter.
Method Yu knew this must be the work of the Desolate Ruins’ will.
But at this moment, Method Yu didn’t want to directly confront the will of the Desolate Ruins.
Otherwise, he might be forcibly teleported away from this place, making it very troublesome to return later.
So, he said a word to Qi Ruoqing, and then they both descended from the chariot.
At this height, the pressure was more than three times stronger than on the ground.
Qi Ruoqing’s face turned pale, feeling as if all her bones were being compressed together, about to give way at any moment.
Method Yu, however, appeared completely relaxed as he approached the rock face.
This spot was only about a hundred meters below the mountain peak.
After entering the mountain’s interior and walking upward for a while, it shouldn’t take too much time.
“Boom!”
Method Yu punched the rock face with one fist, creating a large hole.
Then, he and Qi Ruoqing entered the interior of the tall mountain.
…
Before them was an ordinary small path.
Method Yu extended his right hand, condensing true qi into a ball of light to illuminate their surroundings.
There was nothing special to see—rock walls on both sides and an artificially created path beneath their feet, winding upward.
“Let’s go,” Method Yu said to Qi Ruoqing, then started walking upward.
“Ahh…”
Just then, a scream came from below.
Judging by the volume, the source was still quite far away.
Qi Ruoqing froze in place, her face turning pale.
But seeing that Method Yu had no reaction, she bit her lip and followed him.
As they continued upward, they encountered nothing except the increasingly strong pressure bearing down on their bodies.
Method Yu walked faster and faster, and Qi Ruoqing gradually fell behind.
But Qi Ruoqing said nothing, gritting her teeth and forcing herself to keep moving upward.
About fifteen minutes later, the path in front of them gave way to level ground.
Method Yu pushed the light ball in his right palm forward.
The space ahead was immediately illuminated.
It was like a square room with rock walls all around.
On the cliff face directly ahead, there was a protruding point of light.
Method Yu narrowed his eyes for a closer look.
It was a palm-sized jade pendant.
But it looked as if flames were burning inside it.
The flames appeared to be active, with light and shadows constantly changing.
Seeing this jade, Method Yu immediately thought of it.
The legendary Fire Separation Jade!
Qi Ruoqing’s beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.
From the beginning, she hadn’t believed there was any treasure in this place.
But unexpectedly, the Fire Separation Jade had actually appeared!
They walked forward together.
Approaching the Fire Separation Jade, Method Yu directly reached out his hand, intending to take it.
At this moment, an elderly voice echoed in the secret chamber.
“To obtain the Fire Separation Jade, you must pass a test. Touch the jade, and the test will officially begin, with no possibility of escape.”
“Old man, it’s you again… You seem quite busy, managing everything yourself. Why not consider taking an apprentice or something…” Method Yu said with a smile.
“…” The will of the Desolate Ruins remained silent.
“What kind of test is it? Who set this test for me, was it you?” Method Yu asked.
“The Fire Separation Jade sets its own test,” the will of the Desolate Ruins said solemnly.
The Fire Separation Jade sets its own test!?
Method Yu was stunned for a moment, then understood.
Legendary items like the Fire Separation Jade must possess a spirit.
It was perfectly normal for the spirit to set a test, just like the previous Heavenly Halberd.
“Do you want to accept the test? I can let you try first,” Method Yu said to Qi Ruoqing beside him.
Qi Ruoqing’s expression changed, and she was about to shake her head.
“If you cannot pass the test, both body and soul will be destroyed,” the will of the Desolate Ruins spoke again.
“Mr. Method Yu, I know my own strength… I cannot possibly pass the test, but you certainly can,” Qi Ruoqing said, looking at Method Yu.
“Then let me do it,” Method Yu said, extending his right hand and pressing it against the Fire Separation Jade.
“Whoosh!”
The flames inside the Fire Separation Jade blazed up fiercely, radiating light in all directions!
Method Yu felt a warm sensation in his right palm.
“Boom!”
Then, a thunderous sound exploded in his head!
The scene before Method Yu’s eyes immediately changed.
Above was the night sky with a golden bright moon.
Below was the sparkling surface of the sea.
Looking around, Method Yu found himself in the middle of the ocean, with nothing but vast waters in sight.
“Where’s the promised test?” Method Yu frowned, looking around in confusion.
Just then, a dazzling flame suddenly appeared not far in front of him.
From within the burning golden-red flames came a voice: “You actually possess the Earth Core Fire?”
“…Yes,” Method Yu answered.
“Since you already have the Earth Core Fire, why do you seek the Fire Separation Jade?” the flame questioned.
“I’m just curious,” Method Yu replied.
“Curious?” The flame’s tone was displeased. “I am the Fire Separation Divine Jade! Created by the hands of an immortal!”
“You’re just a spirit, stop talking so much and get on with the test,” Method Yu said impatiently.
“You lack sincerity! You cannot possibly pass the test!” the flame said angrily.
At the same time, its form suddenly expanded!
“Whoosh…”
In an instant, the flames covered the entire night sky!
Scorching heat came from all directions.
The surroundings were filled with golden-red flames, extremely bright!
Looking down, Method Yu discovered that the sea water had suddenly transformed into a sea of fire!
Flames were everywhere!
Around Method Yu, there was nothing but fire in sight!
“The first test is to survive in this environment for a sufficient length of time,” the voice of the Fire Separation Jade reached Method Yu’s ears.
“Sufficient length of time? How long is that?” Method Yu asked.
“When I consider it sufficient, you will have passed the first test,” the Fire Separation Jade said.
The voice of the Fire Separation Jade’s spirit sounded like a little boy.
Being a child, it naturally had a certain willfulness.
Method Yu knew that his tone earlier had probably displeased the Fire Separation Jade.
However, Method Yu didn’t intend to say much more.
This sea of fire indeed brought scorching temperatures, but to Method Yu, it was nothing.
After all, Method Yu had once bathed in magma to test his physical strength.
Ten minutes passed, and not a single drop of sweat appeared on Method Yu’s forehead.
By now, the surrounding temperature had risen to an extremely terrifying degree.
Any living being that came to this realm would probably be incinerated to ashes in an instant.
Twenty minutes passed, and Method Yu still stood in mid-air, eyes closed, with a relaxed expression, as if he were lying on a soft bed at home.
Thirty minutes passed…
Method Yu felt a bit bored and directly dropped from the air into the sea of fire.
These flames didn’t burn Method Yu’s clothes; the heat acted directly on his body.
Method Yu’s entire body was immersed in the flames, occasionally popping his head out like he was swimming.
“Hey, is that enough time?” Method Yu called out loudly.
As soon as he spoke, the sea of fire instantly disappeared.
The water beneath Method Yu returned to normal.
“The second test is to battle with me.”
As these words were spoken, a flame appeared in the sky again.
The flame slowly condensed into a human shape, and judging by the size, it was indeed a little boy.
“I suggest you combine all your tests together. There’s no need to waste everyone’s time,” Method Yu said.
“There are no more tests. This is the final one. If you can pass it… I, the Fire Separation Divine Jade, am willing to accept you as my master.” The Fire Separation Jade’s mouth opened in what seemed to be a mocking smile.
“Fine.” Method Yu’s gaze sharpened, becoming a bit more serious.
The little boy of flame formed by the Fire Separation Jade raised both hands, and from his palms, two large fireballs suddenly rose.
“Boom!”
He thrust both hands forward, and two fire dragons intertwined in the air, merging into one and rushing toward Method Yu.
The scorching heat surged toward him.
“Since my opponent is the Fire Separation Jade, I’ll counter with fire techniques as well.”
With a thought, Method Yu immediately recalled a book of magical techniques he had read years ago.
Raging Wave Fire Technique!
Method Yu silently recited the incantation in his mind, raised his right hand, and drew a magical seal in the air before him.
Activating this technique and combining it with the Earth Core Fire within his body.
A great wave of fire erupted from the magical seal, rushing toward the approaching fire dragon!
Both flames contained a scorching heat capable of annihilating everything.
“Boom…”
The two fires collided, producing an even more dazzling blaze.
The heat was so intense that the sea water below began to boil.
Divine Movement Without Shadow!
Method Yu’s form flashed like lightning, instantly passing through the converging sea of fire in the sky, arriving above the Fire Separation Jade.
The Fire Separation Jade looked up, its mouth opening again.
It raised its right hand and clenched it forcefully!
“Boom!”
Method Yu’s body was immediately engulfed in flames, violently exploding!
This time, Method Yu finally felt a slight burning pain on his skin!
“Do you know how many people over the years have wanted to become the master of me, the Fire Separation Divine Jade? Among them were even those half-step to immortality, but they still failed. You are no exception.” The voice of the Fire Separation Jade entered Method Yu’s ears.
At the same time, the Fire Separation Jade spread both hands.
From the sea surface, a massive column of fire surged upward toward the sky!
This golden-red flame, like a tornado, twisted upward in the sky.
Viewed from a distance, this fire tornado resembled the body of a golden dragon, incredibly magnificent!
At this moment, Method Yu, having dispersed the flames around him, looked up at the fire tornado before him, his expression changing slightly.
The body of this fire dragon was extremely similar to the form taken by the small golden dragon inside his body!
Except that the fire dragon before him was much larger!
Had the Fire Separation Jade seen a divine dragon!?
Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to condense such a realistic dragon form with fire!
