Chapter 492 Art of Nature: Fire Meditation (3)
The 240-G force suddenly added in 720-G force altogether, and the green fire was suppressed until it was only 10 feet tall.
Jacob was trance-like, but the pressure really jolted him, and he was barely able to keep his posture. He had gotten numb to the feeling of being burned alive while water mana continued to increase and supported him in this furnace-like environment.
Furthermore, the green flames didn\'t actually burn him; instead, they seemed to be doing something to his body. He could feel it, and the sensation of melting into the fire strangely turned pleasant as more and more time went by.
After 48 hours, another 240-G force was added to 960-G force altogether, and the hundred-foot-tall green flames around him started to compress again until they were 20 feet.
At this moment, Jacob had lost all the feeling in his body. All he could feel was either water or fire, and he could still feel his heart, which had stopped beating, yet he could still feel his control over it.
If someone else stumbled upon this location, they would find the flames from all over the desert in a 10-mile radius gathering around a massive fire tornado. That tornado continued to increase in size, and so did the flame radius.
In fact, there were golden scorpions in this flame desert, and they were pretty sensitive towards fire and its intensity because it was their source of power.
When an unusual amount of high-intensity flame started to gather at a single point, those golden scorpions started to move towards it like moths to fire.
But the moment they entered anywhere near the golden fire tornado, they were shredded into pieces before turning into ashes, and even their magic cores turned into dust.
However, those scorpions didn\'t stop. In fact, more and more started to be attracted by the flames until more giant scorpions showed up after the third day passed, and the fire radius increased by 15 miles from 10, and it continued to spread, attracting more scorpions.
At this moment, a few hundred miles from where this phenomenon was occurring was a pyramid lit in golden flames like the sun, and head intensity here were hundreds of times denser than anywhere in the entire burning desert.
It was so high that even the giants from Flame Iron Giant Tribe, known for their high affinity with fire and could endure up to 1000-degree Celsius temperature, could not approach it.
Furthermore, only those species with fire affinity as high as the flame iron giants could reach this point, while others would turn into ashes before they could even see this pyramid.
At this moment, the second most powerful person in the Zodiac Warrior Alliance, Vice Chairman Andrew, was also present in this place, and with him were two more giants from the alliance, all of which belonged to the Flame Iron Giant Tribe.
However, despite managing to come to this place, they can\'t go anywhere near the pyramid because it is simply too dangerous, and they instinctively dread that fire on the pyramid for some reason.
Now, they were struck with a choice between leaving this place and finding another exit or trying their luck anyway; the latter was akin to suicide. But after they all heard about Jacob\'s accomplishment, they were in a hurry to find an exit to report it back, and this pyramid might be their only shot.
But now, they seemed to have no other choice but to give up on that idea. Furthermore, they were continuously attacked by giant golden scorpions the closer they were to that pyramid, and they couldn\'t continue this much longer.
However, things turned strange when the scorpions didn\'t attack them for two straight days as they all vanished in thin air, or they might\'ve killed them all.
But they were startled when the stoic pyramid suddenly trembled today, making the surrounding sand vibrate violently.
"Woooooooshhhhh…."
At this moment, an ear-piercing shrill reverberated like thunder in the entire vicinity, and the pyramid shook even more violently.
"What is happening?" Andrew\'s expression went pale as he looked at the pyramid in horror.
"What kind of thing is inside that pyramid? Do you think it is causing all these tremors?!" A skinny giant palely exclaimed.
The elderly giant was somewhat calm, but his ashen expression wasn\'t any different from the other two. He grimly said, "I don\'t know what is inside and what stirred it. But I think it\'s trying to get out. Let\'s give up on entering that place. It might not be a shackle but a den of monsters. Even if there is a shackle there, I don\'t think we can take on whatever monster is trapped there. Let\'s leave before it\'s break free."
Andrew\'s expression changed a few times, and he was extremely reluctant to give up after coming this far. But that thing inside was causing him to feel fear just by its shrillness, and he could only imagine the size and strength of that thing that was shaking that gigantic pyramid.
Furthermore, it was becoming increasingly violent, as if it was restless to break free.
In the end, he grimly said, "Let\'s go!"
They all left towards the east using their fastest movement spells.
At this moment, over a hundred hours have passed since Jacob started the fire meditation, and there are only a few hours left before it will reach completion.
The green flames around him were now approaching 250, the high mark, while the flame tornado was sized in miles that even the space around Jacob was trembling.
However, Jacob, at this moment, had turned flames themselves. The only proof of his existence was his pitch-black infinity heart, two magic cores, and magic orbits; nothing else remained!
