Chapter 115: Chapter 115 (Massage chair Extra Chapter)
The violent firepower erupted in an uncontrollable burst, flames roaring and bleeding out in every direction.
Ethan raised his arms swiftly, commanding the scattered blast to halt—his control absolute and precise.
If unchecked, half the mountain would have been reduced to ash and smoke.
"It’s finally done!" Ethan’s face radiated joy, his heart pounding with the profound satisfaction of breakthrough.
The blazing phoenix descended from the sky, its form coalescing into a compact globe of swirling blue flames that settled gently in the palm of his hand.
"This is a qualitative leap," Ethan whispered, awed by the power now coursing within.
"The strength of these flames is multiplied manifold, far beyond the weak flicker of early days. Ten years of struggle, but well worth every sacrifice."
Without hesitation, Ethan declared, "Now, to begin the Divine Flame Bodybuilding Technique!"
He waved his hand with authority, closing all doors and windows against the sudden blaze of spiritual energy, isolating himself in his chamber.
The Divine Flame Bodybuilding Technique—a secret inheritance of the ancient Fire Spirit Clan.
Its core lay in harnessing the strange, wild spiritual flame.
At its birth, beast fire was raw and untamed—with effects unpredictable and mediocre.
Innate spiritual fire was another level higher, pure and divine, with unrivaled potency.
But this power came at a grave risk.
To wield beast fire, or innate spiritual fire, recklessly risked catastrophic injury—a misstep might shatter one’s very foundation, disintegrate the body, or extinguish the cultivator’s life.
Ethan was a rare physical cultivator.
He practiced the complete method of body cultivation and wielded the Saint-grade Celestial Jade Physique Scripture.
His body was resilient and fierce as any wild beast, tempered by brutal training techniques.
Nevertheless, he dared not drop his guard for even an instant.
Innate spiritual fire pulsed with a fierceness far beyond any ordinary energy gleaned from heavenly materials or earthly treasures.
One careless move could mean utter disaster.
Calmly, Ethan produced three precious spiritual pills: the Ice Pill, the Deep Sea Jade Coral, and the Cold Dragon Pill.
Each was rich in icy elemental power, potent aids to his endeavor.
With these, his success in absorbing and fusing the innate spiritual fire would rise dramatically.
"Thankfully, I’ve nurtured blue flame since its birth," Ethan mused, watching the tiny azure phoenix flicker gently in his palm.
"We’ve never truly merged—but our bond is like master and servant, steadfast."
Ethan smiled, watching the flaming phoenix flap its spiritual wings, dancing with joy.
"Come, little one."
A crimson-gold scroll unfurled before him, etched with ancient flame symbols.
Words — the words of ancient fire inheritance — floated upward and seeped into his mind, streaming into his brows like a sacred torrent.
Innate spiritual fire could not be stored in the dantian—that sacred chamber belonged to his foundation and blood elixir.
Instead, he needed a new reservoir—a fire hole within the chest, a place free from vital organs yet tough and enduring.
Following the long-lost divine flame method, Ethan began opening the fire hole with his essence and blood, invoking the blood pill’s power.
The task was simple and safe compared with what lay ahead, but critical.
His pulse quickened as the fire hole formed, ready to harbor the wild energy.
Next came the hardest moment.
Blue flames spiraled above his palm, shimmering with vibrant life.
Essence and blood burst forth, cocooning the flames within swirling layers to buffer their fierce heat.
He swallowed the enchanted fire carefully.
A sudden jolt shot through him—his pupils snapped wide.
Pain—raw, searing, gut-wrenching pain—hammered relentlessly through every fiber of his body.
Layers of essence and blood could shield only so much—the innate spiritual fire’s blaze struck again and again, thrashing his muscles, bones, and meridians like angry waves.
His features twisted with agony, sweat trickling down his furrowed brow.
The suffering was unlike anything he had endured in years.
It lashed against his nerves and soul.
Even harboring a spirit-filled blue flame that shrank the fire’s destructive nature, the pain was excruciating.
Summoning the Ice Pill, Ethan swallowed it down.
Cold power rippled through him, icy tendrils crawling along veins and bones.
Frost spread across his skin, wrapping a crystalline shield that soothed his raw nerves—a cooling balm amid the burning inferno.
But Ethan’s vigilance remained unbroken.
He had to endure the divine flame technique, embracing the pain in pursuit of transcendent power.
With the fire hole as the center, the mystical flames coursed throughout his meridians for eighteen days.
Then, drawing the innate fire into the fire hole, Ethan established a profound connection with his spirit and soul.
This bond was the key to fully absorbing and fusing the innate flame within.
The process continued—the spirit fire tempered his whole body according to the Divine Flame Bodybuilding Technique’s ancient wisdom.
Blue flames sparkled and pulsed along his pathways, igniting power and vitality.
Day turned to night.
One day passed.
Two days.
The icy shield infused by the Ice Pill gradually melted away.
Three weeks later, the frost was gone entirely.
Pain returned like a tidal wave.
Ethan’s face flushed crimson; lips and nose breathed faint sparks of flame.
Yet he gritted his teeth and persevered, pressing on for four grueling weeks.
Next came the Deep Sea Jade Coral, a treasure holding many times the potency of the Ice Pill.
It would sustain and protect him for at least another eight full weeks.
"Push forward," Ethan whispered, body sheathed in determination.
Twelve weeks passed in relentless practice.
A faint, growing sense of fusion blossomed within—his body and ethereal fire intertwining in a perfect dance.
At last, Ethan swallowed the Cold Dragon Pill, completing eighteen weeks of trial and torment.
The azure flame had nestled completely within the fire hole.
Guided by the Divine Flame Bodybuilding Technique, the innate flame had bonded with his own spirit and soul.
The burning agony instantly vanished.
A sudden surge of immense power flooded his body, healing every injury and burn with fiery light.
Ethan’s complexion brightened; his eyes glowed fiercely with a new blue flame.
He sensed an additional connection woven into his mind—a link forged between his soul and the azure blaze.
As his consciousness stirred, blue flames leapt to life in his palm.
"Successfully integrated, My strength has improved slightly."
