The beating flame gives people an endless sense of warmth, and under washing, the sleepiness of the whole body is gone.

Leo stretched out his right hand, engraved with the mark of fire, and touched the bonfire.

The [Holy Emblem Certificate] he held in his left hand gradually turned red and softened under the scorching flames, and finally turned into a flowing golden-red slurry, suspended in mid-air, and then merged into the fire mark on the back of his hand.

The long-lost burning sensation swept through his body, and looking inward at his body, Leo could clearly see that the red light covering the surface of his soul became deeper with the addition of golden-red slurry, and not only that, but a network of golden-red threads appeared on its surface.

[Using the [Holy Emblem Certificate]...... The level meets the conditions...... Rank Upgrade Medium ......]

[Rank: 1st → 2nd]

[Level: Lv.9 (1000/1000)→ Lv.10 (0/2000)]

[Obtain a Special Passive Skill - [New Fire Mark]]

[Congratulations, if you are promoted to the second order, you can enter the second floor area of the Burning Shrine - Nameless Statue, Melting Pot, and Miracle Book.] 】

The improvement of the Fire Contractor's rank is immediate.

First of all, it is the blessing of all attributes, which has been increased from 46% to 56%.

Of course,It's not much to say this improvement.,Say a lot less.,The monsters that can't be beaten still can't be beaten.,The monsters that can be beaten.,It's easier.,There's not much change in nature.。

What Leo cares about is the special passive skill [New Fire Mark] obtained after leveling up.

——

[New Fire Seal: Passive]: Use "Special Paint" to draw the lines of new fire on the soul to gain the ability to resist the environmental erosion of moderate intensity distortion pollution (up to 24 hours).

——

Looking at the introduction of the skill in front of him by the semi-illusory data model, Leo's eyes flashed thoughtfully.

"Special Pigment" should refer to the soul energy with a special structure in the [Holy Emblem Certificate], and what does "New Fire" refer to?

Bonfire? Tinder? Or is it the central tinder?

There is one thing, Leo didn't expect that this special skill obtained after upgrading was not recognized by the character panel and was not included.

Maybe it's because this skill doesn't meet certain conditions?

Leo guessed.

After a moment, he raised his hand and used 7,200 points of firewood to move up the ranks.

2000，4000……

Looking at the remaining 1,200 points on the [Firewood] column, Leo's eyes narrowed slightly.

After being promoted to the second order, the firewood required for upgrading is completely different from the first order, no longer increasing by 100 per level, but directly doubling!

[In view of the general environment,

It is enough to 7200 [firewood], which is only enough to upgrade by two levels......

It seems that the speed of level increase after the second order will be greatly slowed down.

Lv.12, which brings a 79% increase in all attributes.

Feeling the greatly improved body under the "External Augmentation Equipment", Leo briefly moved, and after getting used to it, he turned his gaze to the surroundings.

At this moment, in the staircase area around the Fire Bath Zone, several Fire Contractors who were sitting down to rest turned their eyes on Leo's body, and envy flashed in their eyes.

The movement of the promotion is not small, not to mention that this place is extremely quiet, and if there is any abnormal movement, it will be seen immediately, so they found Leo who was ascending at the first time.

….

Generally speaking, after completing an exploration of the sacred tree of Floridea, the Fire Pact needs to return to the fire area of the Burning Sacrifice and bathe in the bonfire, gradually eliminating the distortion of the body contamination, this process is long and short, and it is related to the exploration time of the Fire Pact, but it takes at least 12 hours.

Therefore, the frequency of the diligent Fire Pact Cultivator to explore the Sacred Tree Flvidea is once every two or three days, during which time in addition to clearing the distortions in the body also has time to exercise and practice.

The danger of the Sacred Tree Flvidea is extremely high, even after the upgrade

There has been an increase, but improving the strength of one's own ontology is still the top priority.

To be a legend, there is no fool, and naturally knows this truth.

Looking at the white-clothed sword-wielding young man who was heading towards the second floor of the Burning Sacrifice Hall after completing his ascension, these figures sitting in the staircase area stared blankly until their figures disappeared, and then they withdrew their gaze.

The difficulty of advancing from the first order to the second order is ridiculously high, and now seeing a newcomer promoted to the second order with their own eyes, how can their hearts not be shaken?

……

Walking up the stairs, the path that was obscured by the gray mist at the first order slowly spread out to the sides in the faint light emitted by the fire mark on the back of the hand that became more and more delicate after being promoted to the second order.

Leo was very interested in the two areas mentioned by the Mark of Fire earlier—the Nameless Statue, the Melting Pot, and the Miracle Scroll.

Therefore, after dealing with the upgrade, he stepped on the stone staircase leading to the second floor as soon as possible.

The gray and misty stone staircase was eerily quiet, and Leo stepped through the staircase step by step, and it was not long before a grand stone hall appeared in front of him.

The spacious hall is made of rough stone bars throughout, and the walls are lined with torches to bring light to the hall.

In the other three directions of the hall, there were three dimly lit passages leading to different areas, and on the opposite side of Leo's was a wall covered in gray fog, and the staircase leading to the upper level could be faintly seen.

Walking to the center of the hall and thinking for a moment, Leo walked into the passage on the left.

The deeper the dim passage went, the brighter the light became, and it wasn't long before Leo came to a house that was neither too big nor small, about 100 square meters.

The first time he looked at the statue standing in the center of the house, and just one glance shook his heart.

It was a huge statue of a goddess nearly ten meters high, with her hands folded and her head lowered, as if she was taking pity on all things in the world, and her face was in a lake.

Staring at the statue in front of him, Leo's heart stirred up.

This statue, this is not the first time he has seen it, when he was in the ninth church of Marim in the dream world, on the first floor, there was a statue of a goddess exactly like this one.

"Goddess of Light......

Leo muttered softly.

He was extremely impressed by this god who did not have a strong sense of existence.

In the Ninth Church of Marim, he saw for the first time the real Knight of Lanloins, and for the first time, he saw the legendary power of the Divine Prayer in his eyes at that time.

Not only that, but the goddess of light is also the sister of Count Alexander, the god of faith of Velvet Alexander...... Wait a minute?!

Flvi ...... Sacred Tree Florvidea ......

….

Is there a connection between the two?!

Like a thunderbolt passing through his heart, Leo's heart shook.

Secretly, he felt that there was definitely some kind of connection between the two, but unfortunately, the similarity between names and titles alone was not enough for him to know anything.

After a few seconds, Leo suppressed the shock in his heart and continued to remember.

He still remembered that when he killed Ferve Alexander in the city, he saw the First Church of the Holy City, which was far more opulent than the Ninth Church of Marym, in the fragments of memories contained in his soul.

In addition to this, there was the Privy Councillor Field, the then saintly Flvy, and what they mentioned in their conversation as the so-called "way......

Goddess of Light, Goddess of the Dark Moon, Grey Mist......

Everything that has changed in this world seems to have started when the gray fog appeared.

In the memory fragment, Privy Council Bishop Field once said that after the gray fog filled the sky, the goddess's eyes no longer turned to the world, that is, before the gray fog appeared, the god of this world was the goddess of light, not the goddess of the dark moon.

In this case, is the "road" in their conversation related to this, to the gray fog?

Leo pondered.

For the goddess of the dark moon, Leo has always been extremely jealous.

He had never seen this one before

The gods have been entangled with him since the time of the Blue Star.

The Archbishop of the Dark Moon, who caused great turmoil in the Blue Star, is inseparable from the figure of the Dark Moon Goddess.

The Moster Continent, the source of the Winsted disaster in the Land of Winds, although it was handled by the Darkmoon Pope, there is also the shadow of the Darkmoon Goddess behind it......

After thinking for a long time, Leo sighed.

If you want to find more clues about this, you still have to get the First Church of the Holy City.

The height of the First Church of the Holy City is at least several hundred meters, and such an obvious building must have been found by Leo if it were in the outer area of the Holy Tree, so it is certain that the First Church of the Holy Tree should be inside the Holy Tree, or in a deeper area.

That's a place he's far from setting foot in.

"Hoo ......"

With a deep breath, Leo suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart and walked to the statue of the goddess in the center of the house.

According to the name of the Burning Shrine, this area should be the "Nameless Statue".

Nameless...... Nameless......

Leo chewed on the two words, and then he looked at the data frame in front of him that popped up as he approached the statue of the fire.

——

【Nameless Statue】

[Within three meters of the statue, you can perform operations related to "warbands" (creation, disbandment.】 】

[To create a warband, a special item [Pureblood Certificate] is required.] 】

[After joining a warband, you can obtain warband skills, warband station, and warband warehouse.] 】

——

The hint that the Mark of Fire pops up is simple and easy to understand.

Looking at the data frame in front of him, Leo's eyes moved slightly.

Not long ago, the Horned Helmet Man who was rescued by him talked about the "Warband" and mentioned the [Sun] Nils, the third strongest of the pioneers.

The forerunner of the Burning Shrine, Leo had not really come into contact with it.

However, the Fire Pact who can become a pioneer is an existence that can defeat the [Wandering Sacred Tree Knight] alone at lv.9, and its strength is at least at the demigod level.

….

The Holy Tree of Flvedea is very dangerous, because the existence of the [Power of the Holy Source], even if it is a demigod, if you are not careful, there is a danger of capsizing in the gutter, so if you can find some pioneers and explore the deep area of the Holy Tree Fleetia together, it will also be a good thing for Leo.

What's more, these pioneers have been in the world of the Sacred Tree Florvidea for such a long time, and they must have a good understanding of the Burning Shrine and the Sacred Tree Florvedia.

Leo never underestimated others.

No matter what world the pioneer comes from, if he can become a demigod, he is definitely a powerful being above hundreds of millions of sentient beings.

Take Wensted as an example, its population is hundreds of millions, but the number of demigods is only a few?

I can count on one hand.

You must know that the Moster Continent is not an ordinary world, the upper limit of this world is extremely high, there are demon gods, and there are four gods whose strength is stronger than the demon gods.

Although because the source power generated by the core of the world was divided up by the four gods, no new demigods were born after the Demon God War on the Moster Continent, even if the time is pushed to the Demon God War period, the number of demigods-level is only a handful.

Those who can achieve demigods are the best in a world.

The conditions for the promotion of the second order of the Burning Sacrifice House are so high that it can only be achieved by at least a demigod, and the appearance of the warband makes Leo can't help but guess the purpose of the Burning Sacrifice Center.

What is the purpose of having the demigods form a team to explore the sacred tree of Flvidea?

Mind closed the data frame in front of him, although Leo was interested in the warband, especially the benefits after joining the warband, he had no intention of joining other people's warbands.

He was ready to create a warband himself.

Unfortunately, it is not known where the [Pureblood Credential] can be obtained, and there is no way to create one.

Therefore, he planned to take a look at the other two areas on the second floor of the Burning Shrine.

Following the path he had come, Leo quickly returned to the Stone Hall

Without hesitation, he walked straight to the side passage.

In the depths of the passage that had suddenly become dark, there was a subtle sound of "clanging", and as he walked deeper, Leo could feel the breath in the air gradually becoming hotter.

"The Melting Pot......

Guessing in his heart, Leo quickened his pace, and soon, he walked out of the passage.

And a furnace 100 meters high just broke into his field of vision.

On the surface of the furnace, there are many floats and textures carved with them, but because they are too old, the specific shapes of these floats and textures can no longer be seen.

The scorching breath distorted the air.

Leo walked towards the furnace step by step, and when he was about ten meters away, the hint of the mark of fire came as expected.

——

【Melting Pot】

[The Crucible of Soul Tempering, which has the ability to convert special souls into weapons or armor, and can also be used to qualitatively transform or strengthen existing soul weapons by paying [Attribute Gems] or [Meteorite Stones]. 】

——

"The Melting Pot......

Looking at the huge furnace 100 meters high in front of him, Leo's eyes moved.

Attempts were made to manipulate the Lightchaser Sword, but as expected, the Melting Pot did not react, and apparently, it was not a weapon produced by the Burning Sacrifice, and the Melting Furnace could not be strengthened.

Seeing this, Leo was not too disappointed.

The quality of Chasing Light is as high as an artifact, and an artifact, even a demon god-level existence, may not be able to possess it.

Since the weapon didn't work, Leo turned his gaze to the armor.

The armor produced by the melting pot of the Burning Sacrifice not only has a certain attribute bonus, but more importantly, it can customize the style independently.

To this day, the clothes Leo wears are still ordinary clothes, and it would be a good thing to get a set of armor with attributes that doesn't affect his physical dexterity at the Burning Sacrifice.

Of course, it is not easy to obtain such armor.

Not only do you need a deformed and powerful soul with a specific attribute, but you also need a lot of firewood.

All in all, if you want to get something in the Burning Sacrifice House, you have to go to the Holy Tree Florvedia and work hard to earn firewood and various resources!
