The Supreme God novel Chapter 277

We can witness how others will fight for it! I'm sure they'll be like hyenas fighting over a piece of meat."

Their voices gradually faded in the distance as the two drifted away toward Ganges Auction House.

Austin's interest peaked the moment he heard the words Unearthly Fire.

In the Elixir Foundation, there was an explanation about the Unearthly Fire.

Generally, the fire of pill refiner was refined using their own vital energy.

The higher and stronger the cultivation base and vital energy of a pill refiner, the better quality and level of fire one would be able to produce. This would then produce a more effective pill.

However, besides the fire which pill refiners enhance by vital energy, there was a particular fire which is more powerful, and that was Unearthly Fire! The skill that pill refiners do with the use of the Unearthly Fire to refine pills was called Borrowing Fire.

The reason behind the name was quite literal actually. Unearthly Fire didn't come from something inside, and it had nothing to do with vital energy. It was the kind of fire created outside. Hence, it came to be known as Borrowing Fire.

While only the fire refined by vital energy could be considered as Refining Fire.

In this vast world, Unearthly Fire was created from fallen meteorites or lava that have been roasted for thousands of years and even more.

Compared to ordinary fire refined by vital energy, Unearthly Fire was way more powerful. Not only can it refine pills but also increase their effectiveness! But, obtaining such fire is quite challenging. They are usually hidden in some remote and dangerous area. Even if you were lucky enough to get it, you would still have to face the huge burden of making it as your own.

Many pill refiners would spend a lifetime searching for Unearthly Fire but would end up empty-handed. Because it was extremely hard to control the Unearthly Fire. One necessary step for a pill refiner to control Unearthly Fire was to insert the Unearthly Fire into their body and have it burn inside. Easy enough? Well wait, here's the catch. Unearthly Fire was known for being violent and destructive. Even the well-known solid Magic Golden Drill couldn't resist it, let alone the fragile human body.

It would only take an instant to burn an ordinary human body into ashes. Like paper catching fire.

So Borrowing Fire was definitely dangerous! Many pill refiners have died trying to achieve it. Only a few pill refiners were able to refine and cultivate Unearthly Fire by sheer luck.

All of them were geniuses and elites after all. They were the cream of the crop. So it was not a surprise that those pill refiners who obtained Unearthly Fire were considered the most promising and have so much potential.

So as hard as Borrowing Fire was, countless pill refiners still risked their lives chasing it, like a moth darting into the flame. They would do everything in their power just to obtain it.

Once they have succeeded, they would immediately become famous and have a bright future ahead. But if they lost, it would only mean death for them.

It was quite understandable that all the pill refiners hold complicated feelings for Unearthly Fire, they fear it but they still seek it.

That was the information that Austin got from the Elixir Foundation.

At that moment, Austin's desire had been sparked up because of the conversation he had just overheard. Licking his lip gently, Austin's eyes gazed longingly on the direction of Ganges Auction House.

"No matter what it is, it wouldn't hurt to check it out.

I truly want to know what kind of Unearthly Fire it is. What's the harm in that?"

Austin crooned to himself.

And then he suddenly turned towards the Ganges Auction House, like an excited boy hurrying towards a candy store.

According to the Elixir Foundation, Unearthly Fire could be divided into two huge sections, one was Heavenly Fire, and the other was Earth Fire.

Each section was further subdivided into eight kinds, therefore, 16 kinds in total. But Heavenly Fire was said to be much better than Earth Fire.

Ganges Auction House was not far away. It only took Austin a few minutes to get there.

As the only legal auction house of Peace Town, Ganges Auction House covered a large area. It contained carving beams, painted rafters and a beautiful scenery, it looked so marvelous and gorgeous. It was even more stunning than the Imperial Palace. How luxurious and extravagant it was! It was like a precious gem, stunning and bright.

As Austin stepped into the house, he found a middle-aged charming woman standing behind a counter.

She was exactly the same person who made business with him the last time.

So he went to her directly.

Seeing a customer coming her way, the woman beamed professionally.

"Distinguished guest, what is it that you seek? To auction or to bid?"

"Beautiful lady, I heard there was an Unearthly Fire on sale. Is it true? Can you tell me more about it?"

"Lady?"

the woman was stunned for a moment because of his sweet-talking. Austin was wearing a big cape, she couldn't see his face well and was clueless of his gender or age.

But she responded quickly, Austin's voice sounded young, so she replied with a smile, "Dear, you look quite young, you must be a prospective pill refiner!"

she deduced that Austin was a pill refiner in an instant. The reason was quite simple really, only pill refiners would be interested in the Unearthly Fire.

"But what you heard is true. There is an Unearthly Fire on the auction. Let's take care of some procedures first and then you can enter while waiting for the auction to begin."

So Austin obediently completed the procedures and entered the auction room. But, there were no vacant seats available the moment he entered.
