- As higher dimensional creatures, his whims were not for no reason. So, his eyes suddenly changed to contain space and time.
He no longer perceived time as one-dimensional or linear but experienced all of it at once: past, present, and future. That way, he can calculate the reason for his whim.
After seeing countless futures and possibilities, Flame Emperor began to deduce the truth. And right he was about to succeed, he felt an instinctive fear: the fear of death.
- After making a decision, the Flame Emperor no longer hesitated. A seed appeared in his hand before throwing it into Lou Cheng's body. The seed blended with his bloodline, changing his natural talent for the better.

- As for Wang Wei, after entering the cauldron, he found himself in a world of fire: yellow fire. The fire began to burn his body. To be precise, the impurities and imperfection in his fleshly body.
- The process was quite painful but nothing he could not bear. And once everything was over, Wang Wei knew what the main change occurred to him.
After refining Ji Song's Heavy Ax Physique, he did not completely absorb all his talents since his alchemy back then was shoddy at best. There were many residues left in his body that was not properly absorbed.
Now, the Yellow Flame helped him absorb these residues, thus increasing the strength of his fleshly body by a few percent, and increasing his talent for body refining. And the changes did not stop there.
The flame optimized all the other body parts that he previously tempered–including the 7 Chakras. After he was done, Wang Wei really felt that he achieved "true perfection".
The yellow flame entered his heart where the Phoenix Heart Pill was located and absorbed it. Then, an unimaginable amount of life force came out from the flame heading towards Wang Wei's blood.
His blood seemed very thirsty as they absorbed as much life force that was granted. In the process, they quickly turned golden-purple. Wang Wei did not know how long the process lasted.
Maybe an instant, maybe days, months, and even years. However, what he knew was that once it was finished, he completed the second step of tempering his blood: Life Force Absorption.
Only the last step of Comprehension remained.
Standing inside this world of flame, Wang Wei clenched his hand to feel the power flowing through his veins. According to his calculation, he was only one single step from the strength of Quasi-Emperors.
And regular Quasi-Emperors could not kill him.
