8 Stones of Eternity
White Flame.

Chapters 124. White Flame.

The Phoniex Fire Pagoda was a property belonging to the central White Dove Academy and was heavily guarded by Senior Masters. From the outside, the White Fire Pagoda was only five-story, but actually more than that, there were six floors below it.

On the most basic floor, there was magma that became the center of White Flame's existence. From the heat energy of the White Flame, flowing upwards filled the room on each floor. And, each room was inhabited by a few people who absorbed the White Flame heat energy.

Thanks to the White Flame this is what makes everyone's cultivation base increase dramatically. Only certain people could enter the White Flame Pagoda, especially for the members of the Xia Empire family and the central White Dove Academy who had slots to cultivate in them.

Due to the information from Yuan Zhen regarding the White Fire Pagoda, Cao Tian Jun was no longer confused while sneaking into it which was made like a labyrinth. With the Material Change Technique, he passed through many Junior and Senior Masters standing guard.

He immediately headed to the bottom of the basement floor after passing through several doors of the room that were deliberately made the same. Having already learned from Yuan Zhen, he did not get lost inside the White Flame Pagoda.

However, when he was about to enter the bottom floor, Cao Tian Jun stopped because he saw an old man cultivating in front of the door blocking his path.

In order for the old man to leave the place, Cao Tian Jun walked out of the room, he would make a ruckus to lure the man. The old man was Ancestor Xia, the grandfather of Emperor Xia, and also as the protector of the academy.

Booms...

A loud bang as Cao Tian Jun unleashed an energized blow towards the top floor steps. As a result, the stairs collapsed.

The explosion clearly caught the attention of the guards who were soon arriving. Since the White Fire Pagoda had many rungs, they had no trouble heading towards the sound of an explosion.

Ancestor Xia also heard the sound of the explosion, but heeded it as many guards were on duty. Not for the imperial family and the cultivating academy members, they were clearly distracted and walked out of his room to see who the person who was making a fuss was.

Seeing the stairs being deliberately broken, the guards immediately searched for the whereabouts of the perpetrator. After a while of searching, they did not find it.

They were clearly confused because they did not find the culprit. Then, everyone who was cultivating was introgated by the guards...

Since Ancestor Xia was not provoked by the commotion, Cao Tian Jun thought of another way. The only way was to use puppet puppets that possessed strength that exceeded the guards. He immediately took out one puppet puppet at a time when the guards were busy introgating.

Booms...

The loud explosion occurred again when the puppet damaged another rung of stairs. The commotion created by the puppet puppet clearly attracted the attention of the guards. Seeing the culprit, they immediately attacked him.

Ancestor Xia opened his eyes as he sensed the strength of the Golden God level, he immediately left his place. When he saw the puppets that were uprooting the guards, he rushed to attack him.

This opportunity was not wasted by Cao Tian Jun, he immediately entered through the cracks of the door leading to the center of the White Flame Core. While inside, he saw an underground world filled with a sea of magma. Both of his eyes saw a White Dragon that was on land in the middle of the magma sea.

The length of the body of the White Dragon reaches 70 meters, has a pair of wide wings, two crooked horns on his head, white fur, from the tip of his feathers emit fire, and at the end of his nose there is a small horn.

The White Dragon was the White Flame that was able to change its form. The White Dragon was lying on top of the Lotus Flower that transformed into a crystal. Each leaf of the Lotus Flower was one that distributed the White Fire heat energy absorbed by the cultivator.

The hot temperature inside made him sweat, but not because of the heat of the magma, but rather the heat of the White Flame. The heat of the magma is accustomed to him because it often soaks in the magma liquid when he was a child.

That made Cao Tian Jun not rush to take the White Flame that changed into White Dragon, because the power of the White Dragon was at the Ancient God level.

To conquer that White Dragon, Cao Tian Jun was definitely impossible, as his strength was two levels lower. The only way to conquer it, must take out all the puppet puppets.

"But, are all puppets capable of conquering it?" inner Cao Tian Jun who hesitated because he had never faced off against the White Dragon.

"Lord, have you forgotten us?" reprimands from the Stone of Eternity simultaneously.

Cao Tian Jun scratched his head from worrying too much about his own abilities. Due to his worries, he had forgotten the Stone of Eternity that was capable of absorbing all kinds of energy from nature.

"You have Law Stone, don't you know it?" The Crown Stone represented all the Eternity Stones to remind Cao Tian Jun.

"Law Stone ... My teacher once said, that because of this Law Stone I can quickly learn whatever it is that I just know. Thanks to that as well, I quickly increased in strength. But... To be honest, I can't connect with her, for some reason!" Cao Tian Jun revealed his hindrance all along.

Cao Tian Jun often consulted with his teacher, but Tian Long never told him. He wanted this disciple to be independent and not dependent on him.

"Because the 7 Stones of Eternity are separate from you!" Crown Stone revealed the obstacle experienced by Cao Tian Jun.

In the past, before the Immortal God separated the 7 Eternity Stones from him, he had not thought of the consequences, which Law Stone would hibernate after being separated.

Hence, Cao Tian Jun was difficult to connect with the Law Stone that was asleep within his soul. And, the dantian problem was also due to Law Stone who had not been connected.

"So that's the problem!" it was Cao Tian Jun who finally understood, "what should I do to obtain White Flame?" ask him to the Stone of Eternity.

"With the power of the soul. Whatever you are dealing with and related to the element of nature, you can use it!" replied the Crown Stone which Cao Tian Jun easily understood.

The Stone of Eternity does not directly explain anything that Cao Tian Jun actually possessed, because it is all based on the setting of the Lightning Universe. His goal was very simple, for Cao Tian Jun to gradually discover what already belonged to him. And, whatever he had was well stored within his Soul World.

White Flame was beyond the range of the Soul Power's attacks, and in order to get close, Cao Tian Jun indeed had to use a puppet puppet to lure it. He immediately took out 10 puppet puppets.

The White Dragon immediately woke up from feeling the presence of an uninvited guest. He raised his head and looked at the puppet.

"Parrrr...!" the White Dragon Roar.

After that, it came out from within the magma of hundreds of strangely shaped fish; its body shape was round in black, it reached 160 cm in length, its jaw slightly raised and it had hundreds of pointed teeth, on his chin was an antenna whose rounded edges lit up, his eyes were gray and as if they were about to detach, he had two pairs of wings on his body. And that is the Black Dragonfish (Black Dragon Fish).

The Black Dragonfish is able to survive in extreme heat. This species can face extreme heat. No wonder they are easily found on active sea mountains that are 2,000 meters deep. From its terrible appearance, it has been seen if this one species is classified as an aggressive predator that can bite prey quickly. It can light up in the dark like a firefly.

Seeing that, Cao Tian Jun smiled as he often faced the Black Dragonfish when he was a child, even the lava beast was used as food.

Black Dragonfish came out from within the magma and flew towards the puppet puppet. The puppet in unison took out a sword tucked in his waist, then swung it towards the Black Dragonfish.

The Black Dragonfish's body split into two and fluttered on the ground. One by one the lava beasts were defeated by the puppet puppet. Every time a new Black Dragonfish came out from within the magma, the puppet puppet immediately slashed at him.

The White Dragon did not react even though his subordinates were slaughtered by puppet puppets. After Black Dragonfish was defeated, he roared back loudly to the point of shaking the underground world filled with turbulent magma liquid.

Not long after the White Dragon roared, it came out from within the magma of many other lava beasts similar to the Komodo Dragon. The shape of the body was strange, which was like a cracked body. From the cracks it released magma liquid. And it was a Fire Beast, stronger than the Black Dragonfish.

Fire Beasts crawled out from within the magma, moving rapidly towards the direction of the puppet puppet puppet. Although it was stronger than Black Dragonfish, it was still a puppet puppet that easily defeated the Fire Beast.

After the Fire Beast was defeated, this time the White Dragon finally stood up and roared back loudly to summon his men. Out from within the magma beast the worm was a reddish-black, and it was the Lava Worms.

Lava Worms were as big as a Piton Snake, reaching 10 meters in length, its entire back contained horn-like spines, from its body also giving off magma. Although the Lava Worms were superior in numbers, puppetry had no trouble defeating them, but it still took a long time.

The White Dragon walked back and forth in his nest while seeing his men being defeated, he seemed reluctant to come out of his nest. After the Lava Worms were defeated, he again roared loudly to summon his men.

Seeing White Dragon not approaching him, made Cao Tian Jun become worried as Ancestor Xia would definitely hear the commotion in the underground world. And, his worries happened. The door behind him crackled, a sign of someone going into the underground world.

From inside the magma also came out another and strangely shaped beast. Its body was like a Puffer fish, but its size was much larger, 3 meters in diameter, it had a pair of hands, a wide mouth capable of devouring an adult's head, from its body it also let out a fire, it can fly even if it has no wings. And, that lava beast was the Lava Monster.

Before Ancestor Xia entered and the Lava Monster attacked, soon Cao Tian Jun stored the puppet into his Dimension Ring. Panicked, he also hid inside the Dimensional Ring.

Not long after, Cao Tian Jun saw Ancestor Xia enter the underground world. The Lava Monster also stopped due to losing its target. The White Dragon was puzzled at not seeing the puppet that disappeared in a split second.

However, the one being targeted was Ancestor Xia. Ancestor Xia was surprised not to play because he saw the Lava Monster which reached dozens of tails.

The arrival of Ancestor Xia made White Dragon become angry and roared loudly, he was angry that Ancestor Xia was not doing his job well so there was an intruder entering his territory.
