1677 Vestigial Flames Mountain! lll

Like a horn that called for the end, Noah's voice bellowed out and destroyed everything- even the sand formed Nightmare Sand Emperor shaking as a smile formed on it again.

<Interesting.>

Its will was voiced out one last time before an instant later, its illusory form began to fade until only a smile was left- this smile forming into a golden light that instantly shot into Noah's body.

HOOONG!

<An Astounding Achievement! You have withstood against the will of the Nightmare Sand Emperor and obtained the ultimate ability- Sandman!>

WAA!

A new skill bloomed in Noah's mind as destiny danced wildly.

From his fingertips, silver sand began to gather as the swirling silver sand around him began to feel clear and distinct, Noah actually making headway into the Dream Dimension at this moment!

While this soul relished in this accomplishment in the Dream Dimension, Noah's Clone with the Character Selection of Alexander King went through multiple teleportation Runic circles that connected the vast Pure Blooded Domains of the Cardinal Royal Humans- eventually leaving the first White Outer Peninsula they had arrived in as he went deeper to appear in another false Grotto Sanctum that was known by a single name.

The Vestigial Flames Mountain.

"Again, what can you accomplish here? Master will be moving very soon as you will not be able to work on refining your Physique for even a single year at this time."

The voice of Beatrix continued to ring out as the two of them floated at the bottom of a truly vast mountain that was lit up with many different colored flames.

The mountain was so large that their figures were akin to small specks of sand, the entire structure seeming so large that one couldn't even see the top of it where a shocking level of heat was emanating out!

The auras of countless beings could be felt and seen near the bottom of the mountain as men and women in tight fitting attire or even with their bare bodies could be seen controlling the Flames around them and having them course over their skin, their bodies glinting with a golden light as they underwent refinement by flames.

SHAA!

Noah's eyes fluttered either a gold light as he identified the vast structure before him and compiled all of its information into a single prompt.

<Vestigial Flames Mountain>:: The core of a false Grotto Sanctum that was enacted by an Unknown Legend who had managed to harness the Core Flames of a genuine Grotto Sanctum. The Vestigial Flames atop this Mountain are unique as they have a positive effect on strengthening the body if one can withstand them, with the level of effect becoming more intense the higher up one travels on the Mountain as it also becomes unbearable for one to withstand. The top of the mountain contains the strongest Amalgamation of Vestigial Flames that even the body of a Ninth Firmament existence would disintegrate under its immense heat….

One could see yellow and orange flames swirling at the base of this mystical mountain, with the middle of the mountain surrounded by dazzling white flames as when one went higher, cold and deadly blue flames could be seen raging as even further above that, the sight of purple and gold flames roared out!

Most of the training Pure-Blooded Cardinal Royal Humans on this mountain were moving around at the very bottom Noah could see their auras ranging from the Third to the Seventh Firmament of Ascendancy- each of them trying to refine their Physiques before they had to break their shackles to guarantee a large number of Reality Passages.

But out of all of the beings moving within the Vestigial Flames Mountain, most could only complete a percentage of their Physique as even the strongest geniuses at the Seventh Firmament of Ascendancy could only withstand the White flames near the middle of the mountain- with this level of Flames only being capable of refining something like the Burgeoning Limit Breaking Extreme Physique by 50%!

Unless one was truly exceptional and managed to reach the stage of Blue Flames while they hadn't broken their shackles and were still in the Seventh Firmament, they would never be able to achieve a Physique.

The reason why it could also take a million years if not hundreds of millions of years was that the Vestigial Flames were truly too hot, with existences having to refine their bodies with them slowly and over long extended period of time.

Theoretically, if one could easily withstand these ferocious flames that came from the core of a genuine Grotto Sanctum, they could refine their Physiques much faster as this was actually what Eighth and Ninth Firmament existences did!

Even after they broke their shackles and couldn't add any more Reality Passages, they still came onto the Vestigial Flames Mountain to completely refine their Physiques as the strongest at the Ninth Firmament of Ascendancy could withstand the Blue Flames at the top with the even more exceptional Legend's Visage Tier beings managing to even touch the purple flames.

The shining gold flames that one could barely see towards the very peak….only Legends had been capable of stepping into them and coming out unscathed.

'This should definitely be interesting…'

Noah had such a thought as he reflected back to the 9 Runic Ecritures of Modus Operandi that he had obtained from the Bloodline Ecriture Repository.

From the 9 Modus Operandi, three of them had contained methods to refine one's Physique as there were different methods to refine all three- but if one was talented enough, they could actually utilize the Vestigial Flames Mountain for all three!

Of course, due to the singular Origin and body of beings, it was widely known that one's body could only handle a single Physique- with an astoundingly exceptional Royal Human being capable of completing two Physiques when they arrived at the Ninth Firmament of Ascendancy.

There were very few beings in history who had managed to forge all three Physiques under the Royal Humans as it was mainly the most powerful Legend's Visage or genuine Legends who came back to do this when they were strong enough.

The Burgeoning Limit Breaking Extreme Physique could be refined by any Flames on the Vestigial Flames Mountain, with higher flames increasing the pace and power of the physique!

The Second Limit Breaking Extreme Physique was known as the Chassis Extreme Physique from the <Chassis Emperor's Runic Ecriture of Modus Operandi>, with this refinement required one to eat and devour unique materials refined under flames…or the other method was to utilize the Blue Flames or higher leveled flames under the Vestigial Flames Mountain to achieve the same effect!

The third refinement technique was known to grant the Relegator's Limit Breaking Extreme Physique as it had its own first method of refinement that involved the Essence of Reality and bathing in medicinal baths with unique materials that only the Scions who would become Bloodline Masters or Leaders of squads of Primordial Adjudicators could manage to get their hands on…with its alternative refining method also being Blue Flames or higher on the Vestigial Flames Mountain.

Each Physique gave its own strengthening as they were the reason why the Pure-Blooded Cardinal Royal Humans were known for their pure physical force that could shatter Realities, will all Eighth and Ninth Firmament existences returning to the Vestigial Flames Mountain to complete as many Physiques as they could even if they wouldn't receive the benefits of the Reality Passages that these Physiques offered if they had attained them before they broke their shackles.

Now, there was Noah.

He had yet to break his shackles as he already had attained a Limit Breaking Extreme Physique from an Emperor's Bloodline, and his Origin and soul were elevated to the extremes as they were akin to a Ninth Firmament existence…even though he was still at the Seventh Firmament of Ascendancy!

So what heights would he be able to achieve under the Vestigial Flames Mountain?

Would he be able to forge all three Limit Breaking Extreme Physiques that only the most exceptional scions of the Pure-Blooded Cardinal Royal Humans or their Legends could forge as they could withstand the highest levels of Flames and had strong enough bodies to contain multiple Physiques?

"Mmm…this should definitely be fun."

OOOM!

Noah's voice boomed out as he began to float towards the Vestigial Flames Mountain, Beatrix watching his figure with an exasperated expression as she voiced out once more, catching the attention of nearby Pure-Blooded Cardinal Royal Humans and some of those that were already refining their bodies at the bottom of the Vestigial Flames Mountain.

"We really don't have years to be spending here, Alexander!"

WAA!

Her sharp voice finally brought attention to their figures as some quickly recognized the status of Beatrix.

But Noah was unhindered as he didn't even turn around, his voice coming out boisterously as his already sculpted body rushed up towards the Vestigial Flames Mountain, utterly ignoring the base of it with low level flames and shooting towards the glimmering cerulean flames.

"I will not need a million years. Merely a day should be enough…or just a few hours!"

HOOONG!

Explosive waves of majesty and destiny exploded out as his figure shot out like a glimmering star and began to accumulate even more eyes of the countless beings training on the Vestigial Flames Mountain!
