Chapter 3192 The Ripple Pavilion

Sitting quietly in his room, Zen reflected on what had happened in the Mountain Viewing Province.

Back then, he had accidentally absorbed the Shade Stone.

While trying to escape Elizabeth, his body had been burned by the Sun Crow race's divine flames. While absorbing the divine flames, he also ended up absorbing the Shade Stone.

This time, Zen wanted to replicate the scene.

Silently, he reached out his hand to his chest, stroking it lightly. Suddenly, a flame rose from his chest.

Gradually, the flames climbed over to his arms, then legs, till his whole body was consumed in flames.

In the past, every time Zen absorbed some sort of flame, his body strength would grow. However, as his body continued to strengthen, he'd been unable to forge himself further with only fire.

Besides, ordinary flames wouldn't do him any good, anyway.

Sizzle!

Zen was now at the consummation of the Elementary Fire Godly Way, but he would still cultivate it occasionally.

Although the flames he materialized were not as strong as those of the warriors who specialized in flames, they weren't considered weak. In fact, they were quite powerful.

Under Zen's constant activation, his body burned a bright, hot red.

Finally, as the flames rose higher and higher, Zen's body began to glow a golden light.

The golden light was generated from the Truth of Godly Way hidden within his body. If the golden light kept blazing, he would soon enter the Other Shore.

The first time he had done this, he was in the divine land.

Although he was not exactly sure as to what the Truth of Godly Way was, he stopped it before it took effect on his body.

Therefore, before the flames burned too hotly, he would restrain them, so as to avoid being sent to the Other Shore.

As the golden light was suppressed, circles of golden Sanskrit words hovered around him. One by one, they turned into little whirlpools, absorbing the flames on his body.

While the flames were burning his body, Zen gently pointed at the Shade Stone liquid. It leapt into the air, landing on his shoulder.

Whirl!

The Shade Stone liquid started climbing down his arm. Some part of it had been sucked into the whirlpools.

Last time, Zen wasn't aware that he had absorbed the Shade Stone. This time, his eyes widened in amazement as he observed the process attentively.

of the city followed.

The people of the Su Clan stood in flying carriages, flying along with the crowd below them.

The frontmost carriage had the character "Su" engraved on it, and it carried Cailen. Zen and Gant sat behind him, followed by several uncles of Gant.

"Who is the man behind the master of the Su Clan?"

"What did he do to deserve a seat there?"

"I can't believe that Gant has come back!"

The Su Clan was the most prominent clan in the Su City. The seats on the first flying carriage carried certain prestige. Zen must have been considered a distinguished guest if he was made to sit right behind Cailen. Naturally, the people were very curious about him.

The parade headed for the Clear Lake.

Zen drank in the scene before him. On one side of the Clear Lake, many willows lined the water, making a picturesque, peaceful scene.

Along the way to the Clear Lake, people from the other surrounding cities also gathered, each with their own large drums.

The drummers of the other cities beat their drums furiously; it seemed like they were competing to see who could beat it the hardest. The people cheered, making the scene very lively.

Around two hours later, Zen saw a black line emerge in the Clear Lake. As he got closer, he found that it was a small, narrow island on the lake. The sole building on the island was a beautiful pavilion.

"Is this the Ripple Pavilion?"

Zen blinked his eyes in disappointment. Originally, he thought the Ripple Pavilion would be a magnificent building, but it turned out to be so ordinary.
