At the moment when the Red Lotus Flame closed, Meng Shuai could have escaped.

At the moment when the flames rose, the red lotus fire not only rose high, but also eroded towards his realm at the same time.

This kind of erosion was not the kind of infiltrating corrosion just now, but a strong attack, and in an instant, all the edges of his realm were captured, and at the same time, they were besieged in all directions, invading the center.

With such an erosion force, the quality of the other party's flame was indeed over his water. This is a matter of the level of strength, just like the sea water will erode to fresh water, only the power level contained in the flame is higher than the water, in order to overcome the cycle chain of the five elements, counterattack upward, and instantly occupy the fortress that was not broken before.

Being able to suddenly crush in a situation of equal strength naturally improves the quality of the flame. That's an ascension of supernatural powers, there's no doubt about it. It is the same divine domain, with and without supernatural powers, that is a qualitative change.

And the erosion of a moment made his domain instantly locked, unable to be released or recovered, almost the effect of spatial confinement.

Of course, this was only a matter of a moment, Meng Shuai was caught off guard, but he could still adjust in time, just like before. At most, the red lotus fire could imprison him for the blink of an eye.

A blink of an eye is enough.

The red lotus only had a blink of an eye from opening to closing, so that Meng Shuai could not get out of the battlefield in an instant, and locking him in the red lotus was enough for this magical power to be completed.

Even so, Meng Shuai still has a chance to leave.

If his domain was only water, then the instantaneous control of the flames would be enough to suffocate him in the heart of the fire. But he still has the way of space. Space is the most mysterious and infinite martial art, and it is also the most unlimited.

In the blink of an eye, it looks long, but for Meng Shuai's level, it is already a long time. In one second, several moves can be made, which can determine the outcome of a battle. Meng Shuai still had plenty of time to leave directly from Huoxin.

He can leave by himself, and if he can't take the realm away, he will stay in the red lotus. The realm here was composed of seawater, which originally did not consume his true divine domain, and it would automatically dissipate if it was stayed, and it would not really consume his vitality.

But it was he who changed his mind.

It wasn't a change of mind, he just noticed some kind of change in an instant, and his heart was touched, so much so that he genuinely hesitated for a second - should he stay?

As soon as he hesitated, he had no choice.

In an instant, the red lotus closed and locked him inside. The sky and the earth were blazing, and only Meng Shuai in the middle was sitting on a bowl of water under his control.

The firelight reflected on Meng Shuai's face, and his face was flushed. He smiled wryly, somewhat helpless.

If he was given no more, even for a few seconds, he would not choose to gamble, and most likely he would leave first and then make plans, but since there was no choice, he had to follow the changes he felt at the beginning.

Sitting cross-legged on the back of the turtle, he calmed himself down first. When the mind is calm, the senses can be sharpened, and only then can the previous feelings be determined whether they are delusions.

It's just that calming down in this situation is really a difficult test. The flames outside had changed qualitatively before, but now that the whole world was surrounded by flames, he felt even more that the hot and violent power contained in the flames had reached a new level.

Endless heat rushed towards him, and in an instant he made him sweat. This scorching heat was close to the limit of his patience, and even if the real air swirled and separated him from the flames, it was still so hot that he couldn't tear off his clothes and peel off his skin.

Is there a correlation between the heat of the mind and the heat of the body? Unless there is an indifference to life and death, who can settle down if they feel that they are going to be roasted to death?

However, for the current Meng Shuai, he must meditate, otherwise he will die faster.

In order to cool down and strive for temporary safety, Meng Shuai sank from the surface of the water to the bottom.

Hot water poured in from all directions, making Meng Shuai breathless, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly - isn't this just baking into boiling?

Fortunately, his goal of cooling down was temporarily achieved. Stewing takes longer than roasting meat because it doesn't heat up fast enough with water. He temporarily got an environment where he could protect himself with his true qi, calmed down, and expelled his distractions little by little.

The spiritual power he cultivated was already detracting from the distracting thoughts, and the distracting thoughts were discharged little by little, and he finally entered an ethereal state.

In the ethereal state, everything is under control, and the realm that is already one with him is completely seen through and empty. Even the slightest change, a drop of water, a wisp of breath, was in his grasp.

His spirit extends to the forefront of the fusion of water and fire, from the macro to the micro, observing the changes in the flow of the eroded water.

Suddenly, his face, which had lost all expression, actually put on a smile.

Sure enough, just as he had faintly felt before, because of the erosion and transpiration of fire, his realm was compressed, and at the same time, it also produced a qualitative change!

It was a small, passive, fluke qualitative change, but it was a real refinement. Thousands of times the water was evaporated, and only one drop remained, and an incredible change occurred.

It was a leap in the quality level, just as the power contained in the Red Lotus Flame was higher than the previous lava, and the essence was raised. And this kind of improvement is exactly what Meng Shuai is pursuing.

When he and Chen Qian discussed supernatural powers before, he once asked: "What do you think is the most essential difference between supernatural powers and martial arts?"

It is true that the influence of supernatural powers is greater, and they often radiate thousands of miles and go in all directions, but there are also small supernatural powers, and the scope and martial arts are similar, but supernatural powers are supernatural powers, and they will not be confused with martial arts, where is the difference between them?

Chen Qian couldn't answer this question, probably he didn't understand it himself, and finally said in a tone of "can be understood and unspeakable": "That's the essential difference." When you feel that you are using the power of the Divine Martial Dao, rather than the enhanced version of the power of the Qi Martial Dao, it is the Divine Power. ”

Meng Shuai didn't know the essentials, but he grasped some substance. He has the status of a god and the realm of divine martial arts, but the last corner has not been filled, and he does not have the essential power of divine martial arts.

He once thought that using divine power to support divine powers should be a shortcut. But in this way, his supernatural powers are attached to the divine throne, not to himself. It is equivalent to that he has not really mastered the supernatural powers, and the martial arts have not broken through.

But how do you transform power into a higher level?

Meng Shuai entered the Divine Martial Dao, although he was catalyzed by the divine position, but it was always a matter of course, he was not a fake and shoddy product, and it stands to reason that it is not difficult to master the power of the Divine Martial Dao. But his biggest gain is the ascension of the divine soul and the fusion of the realm. In the realm, he also has great power, but he is still one step away from supernatural powers. How to go up this staircase must be explored more deeply.

He also has a way to explore, and the best way is to compare the quality of his strength with his own strength and find the difference. Helplessly, Chen Qian's power to urge the supernatural power was brought by him when he opened his eyes, which was unusual, and he fainted as soon as he opened his eyes, and Meng Shuai couldn't always urge him to try.

But Meng Shuai still has divine power. Divine power was born in the black earth world, which was the power that he could grasp and have some travel, but it was the highest power. He had been trying to compare his divine power and true qi, trying to find a way for his true qi to be promoted.

Until this battle, he had only a clue. Putting aside all kinds of esoteric truths, the nature of power is probably still an order of magnitude problem. The same qi contains exponential differences in power. It is roughly equivalent to the difference between a general conductor and an integrated circuit.

At the same time, Meng Shuai also has a standard reference. Aside from the black earth world, there is a natural force in the natural world. It was the wind that blew through the sea, the water of the tides, the fire of the flames. These powers are different, but when you look closely, they are all the same. Meng Shuai named them the Force of Nature.

Measured by this, the divine power is higher than the power of nature, and the true qi is inferior to the power of nature. And the power of imagery in the realm is almost equal to the power of nature. This is also the foundation of the realm such as the world.

Since he has mastered the realm, if he wants to increase his strength, he does not need to choose the true qi cultivated by the Qi Martial Dao, but it is more appropriate to directly choose the realm with a higher starting point.

This gave Meng Shuai an idea - perhaps, to make the power jump, through compression, extreme compression, so that the quantity change can achieve a qualitative change.

However, this is easier said than done. True Qi can be compressed, but True Qi is originally sparse, and even compressed back to the dantian, becoming the size of an inner dan, and there is still no qualitative change. And the field, the field is originally arbitrary, free to retract and release, and can even disappear completely, how can it be compressed?

He had tried hundreds of times on his own, but he had never touched the threshold, but today, in this dangerous state, he had found a feasible way.

The internal force is difficult, why not go through the external force?

First, the scope of the domain is locked by external force, and then the elements in the field are squeezed out by external force, compressed and compressed, and finally qualitative change is achieved.

There is hope for success on this path, and it has even just spontaneously caused a beginning. But it's just as dangerous. Because it is literally playing with fire, literally.

Flames are the most violent force, and it is still possible to play with fire and self-immolation by setting fire to yourself, let alone using the opponent's supernatural power flames? Maybe before Meng Shuai's realm could refine a reason, he had already set himself on fire, and even the human belt realm dissipated together.

But reality doesn't allow him to choose. Or fight to the death, put it to death and live later, or even accumulate thick and thin, and then make a breakthrough. Either boiled frogs in warm water and boiled to death in fire lotus.

At this time, you can't be in a hurry, you can't panic. Losing his cool is because he didn't die fast enough.

Meng Shuai relaxed his emotions, his divine soul overflowed, and he fused into the realm, and he fused together, as well as his true qi that existed in the dantian, cultivated for twenty years, and had reached the peak of martial arts.

At this time, it was not only his realm that was burned and tempered by the fire of the red lotus, but also himself, his everything.

Fire refines real gold, and success or failure is the only heart.
