Chapter 716 - Inner Contradictions (1/2)
“Dad has something good for you.”
Qin Haodong flipped his wrist and the Flaming Crystal appeared in his palm.
As a girl with the Suzaku Sacred Body, the little fellow was instinctively attracted to this tiny stone. She reached out and grabbed it.
If ordinary people held this stone, they would immediately be reduced to ashes. Even Qin Haodong had to wrap himself with Genuine Qi to avoid its heat.
But it was not a problem for Tang Tang; instead, she felt quite comfortable while holding this.
“Papa, this little stone is so cute. Could you please give it to me?”
The little fellow held the Flaming Crystal and did not want to put it down.
Qin Haodong said, “Tang Tang, this is not the proper way to use it. In fact, it can help you upgrade your flame.”
“Really? Papa, please tell me how to use it.”
She did not understand what it meant to upgrade, but she was sure that whatever her father would teach her, would definitely be the best.
Qin Haodong asked the little fellow to sit cross-legged, hold the Flaming Crystal in her left palm and then launch the mental cultivation method of the Eyes of Phoenix.
Eyes of Phoenix was a unique skill of the Yiyuan Sect and it was one of the Divine Techniques. It could be used from both sides. In a forward direction, it could spit out fire, while in the reverse direction, it could absorb all the energy of any fire property.
Situ Zhaixing passed this method to Qin Haodong and asked him to teach the little fellow how to use this. So he was extremely proficient in the use of its attributes.
Under his guidance, the little fellow began to hold her breath and operate her Qi to absorb the Flaming Crystal.
Qin Haodong stood quietly at the side, guarding his daughter.
As time passed by, the Flaming Crystal in her palm became smaller and finally, with a loud bang, it turned into a mass of powder. The hot energy inside had been completely absorbed by her.
She opened her eyes slowly and said to Qin Haodong excitedly, “Papa, there seems to be something in my body. It’s warm and comfortable.”
“That’s because your flame has leveled up once again.”
Qin Haodong set a defensive restriction on the walls of the practice room. Then he said to the little fellow, “Tang Tang, give it a try. See if the power of your flame has increased.”
“Okay, Papa!”
She was still a kid and had long been eager to try it out. When Qin Haodong finished speaking, she immediately opened her mouth and spat out a phoenix-like flame.
Her flame had been increased to Innate Fire from ordinary flames. The color had also changed from red to the yellow of innate fire.
After absorbing the Flaming Crystal, her flame has been leveled up once again. Although it was not the blue Samadhi Real Fire yet, there was already a faint blue halo in the yellow flame. It seemed that Tang Tang would be able to have Samadhi Real Fire in a short time.
The most important part was that the flame’s power had been considerably increased. After the fire was aimed at the wall, the restriction set by Qin was immediately reduced into ashes with a bang.
Fortunately, he was well prepared. He quickly removed the spell and set up three restriction formations in a row. Otherwise, the house would really be on fire.
“Okay, Tang Tang, that’s enough.”
Qin Haodong stopped the little fellow in a hurry. Now he was sure of the flame’s power. If she launched a frontal attack, he might not last long even with his cultivation at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
It seemed that the upgrade was successful and Qin Haodong was quite happy with this result.
The little fellow was too young and immature, so he was not in a hurry to improve her cultivation.
But they could not just upgrade the flame whenever they wanted to. They had to seize each opportunity.
But her strength was still amazing. With the Eyes of Phoenix, she could defeat anyone who was under the ninth-level of the Supreme Power Realm by using all her strength.
Qin Haodong praised her and then told her she could not use the flame on people casually. Then they walked out of the practice room together.
After breakfast the next morning, everyone in the Tang Sect was very busy. Today was Chu Shanhe’s 80th birthday. At the request of Chu Xuanyue, Qin Haodong decided to bring all the girls to the birthday party, including the little fellow.
After learning that they were going to the party, all the girls started making preparations after having breakfast. On the one hand, women were eager to show off their beauty, on the other hand, although they accepted the existence of the other girls, they would still compare themselves secretly with the others. To avoid being overshadowed, they dressed very meticulously.
When these girls appeared in front of him together, Qin Haodong actually felt dizzy but proud at the same time. Even the international model team was not as eye-catching as his women. They were all beautiful and had good figures.
After eight o’clock, a long fleet of cars drove into the Tang Sect. The leader was Chu Xuanli, followed by Chu Xuanming. They were there to welcome Chu Xuanyue back on behalf of the Chu family.
All those from the Tang Sect who were attending the party boarded the cars. According to Qin Haodong’s request, the fleet did not drive directly back to the Chu family, but went around the capital.
