And just like that a human shaped ice statue appeared in the hall. Yifu"s eyes were red and her expression was frozen at the moment she was. .h.i.t; it was an odd mix of resentment, pride, and joy.

It may have been confusing to everyone else, but Elena and Drew knew why she had such an expression. She was resentful of Feng Wu, proud that she managed to scheme against her, and joyful that she was about to escape.

Yifu never thought at the time she would be the one to get hurt.

"Zi Cheng, listen OK? The python"s water attack, as long as it"s a woman, that person won"t recover. It"s impossible to save Yifu." Elena couldn"t bear to see Zi Cheng so sad so she tried to explain.

"No, I might be able to save her. I have to try." Zi Cheng seriously looked at Yifu"s frozen form.

"Well if you can"t save her, don"t feel bad about it. You tried your best." Elena spoke with a heavy heart as she patted Zi Cheng on the shoulders. From her perspective it was a useless endeavor to try. No one had ever been thawed once frozen. The yin in a woman"s body was what caused the ice to solidify, so it was impossible to reverse it once it formed.

Ming Xi and the others were also just as pessimistic. Only Ai Lin, because she knew about Zi Cheng"s cheat ability, felt it might be possible. The lead"s favorability system was truly formidable, capable of creating priceless artifacts of G.o.d-like stature in exchange for points.

Didn"t the female lead become something of a demi-G.o.d at the end of the original novel? The male lead also became G.o.dlike, and together they soared through the skies unfettered.

It wasn"t just fanciful speech; there was a possibility Zi Cheng could do it if she tried.

The female lead wasn"t the female lead for nothing. In Zi Cheng"s hand, a bright, purple flame suddenly appeared. It was a tiny flame that elicited a strange sense of emotion from those who saw it. It was definitely not an ordinary flame.

"That"s the Purple Yang flame! It"s the fifth highest ranking flame!" exclaimed an onlooker when he saw the flame in Zi Cheng"s hand.

Those who heard looked at the flame with interest. There were ten famous heavenly flames and the Purple Yang flame, with its pure yang attribute, ranked fifth. Aside from using it for attack, the flame could also be used for medicinal purposes. As an ingredient, it had the ability to increase compounding success. It was a highly coveted flame.

There wasn"t a single pharmacist who wouldn"t want the Purple Yang flame. Other professions were also interested in it since it offered another avenue of attack and a boost in the wielder"s strength. It was akin to a secret weapon.

However such large advantages came with risks. To get the flame, a person had to subdue and fuse with it. Failure meant instant incineration. Success meant a gigantic boost in combat capabilities and entrance into the upper echelon ranks.

The number of people who successfully tamed any heavenly flame could be counted on two hands. The most important thing to note was how rare the flames were. There were ten in all and the other nine were scattered around the world.

Heavenly flames were spiritual flames. Even if you were to encounter one, if you tried to force a merger, the odds of success were only one in ten. To top it off, even if the fusion was successful, you wouldn"t emerge unscathed; you would suffer heavy bodily injury.

Now suddenly, here was a person who successfully merged with a heavenly flame. She didn"t appear injured in anyway. Not only that she was so young!

All kinds of eyes stared at Zi Cheng: jealous, envious, and resentful. Some were incredibly narrowminded and unable to stomach such a young girl being so lucky. They were already thinking of ways to kill her.

This is the mentality of people who can"t become geniuses themselves. They strive to destroy those that are and in this way many geniuses were snuffed out before they had a chance to properly bloom.

Feng Wu looked at the tiny purple flame and recalled there was a similar flame on Yuehua mountain. Her master had said it was the purest fire flame in the world and that an impure mind would not be able to hold it. It was the flame used to create Xiao Chun.

She had gone to see it often back when she was on Yuehua mountain. It was a cute and interesting flame despite its tiny size. The small flame, like the other animals, were her good friends.

Pure the highest heavenly flame"s name. flame, who had been inside Xiao Chun the entire time, sensed something. A pure, white, super plump and adorably cute baby girl with wings flew out of Xiao Chun. She flew in a circle around Feng Wu a few times, then stared off into the distance at Purple Yang.

The chubby girl twisted her lips in scorn. She flew back into Xiao Chun. Other than Feng Wu, no one saw a thing. Naturally this was because of Feng Wu"s relationship with Xiao Chun.

Initially when it was first released by Zi Cheng, the purple flame had been very stable, but it trembled fiercely when the baby girl appeared. The purple flame was nearly suppressed by its superior.

Fortunately the pressure disappeared soon after appearing. The purple flame was relieved. What kind of flame was it that it could exert so much pressure? Was it the second or the third?

In fact it was the first. But no one knew its name. The first was a legend even in the heavens. They knew the first existed, but they didn"t know what kind of flame it was.
