Chapter 491 Art of Nature: Fire Meditation (2)
Deep within the flame desert, over three-meter-tall golden flames, Jacob was flying with a gray disc as the temperature was around four hundred degrees Celsius, and he felt like he was burning. Just breathing here was like swallowing fire itself.
If it weren't for the unique rank black robe he was wearing, Jacob would be in huge trouble. He was already hundreds of miles deep into the flame desert, and the ice plains had long vanished.
At this moment, Jacob finally stopped as he thought this distance was far more than eloquent enough to start the fire meditation, and he didn't have to worry about running out of flames as this entire desert was burning in golden flames.
He didn't want to go any further because he was sure there would beasts like yetis, not to mention the temperate was a huge hindrance, and if that beast of direction was a fire type, then he didn't dare to face it without having some protection against fire.
At this moment, landed on the burning sand. The clothes on his body started to vanish as he exposed his body to the golden flames, and Jacob gritted his teeth when he felt the flames start to char his skin the moment the treasure protected was gone.
Although his body was strong now, it wasn't accustomed to handling this kind of temperature for much longer. He knew within a few minutes, his skin would be completely burned, yet he still didn't lose his focus and quickly sat down cross-legged, and his long hair caught fire.
'God damn it, this better work!' Jacob gritted his teeth while trying his best to endure being sitting within burning flames.

After reaching that limit, he would feel like fire ignited into his body, and only then would he start to exhale the breath of fire. Thereby, he needed to continue to exhale and breathe fire and repeat this same process again and again. Thereby, the fire would burn more fiercely and brightly until he became fire itself.
This was the Fire Mediation of Art of Nature!
As Jacob started to inhale flames with his mouth, he felt his inside start to burn, but he didn't stop and continued the process while his body was now completely charred.
However, when he exhaled for the eleventh time, Jacob suddenly felt his water core become active on its own, and potent water mana started to course through his body, greatly weakening the burning feeling.
This was completely unexpected, nor was it written anywhere in the art of nature. But he started to understand why those exercises were ranked from first to fifth in strict order. The second exercise can't be done without completing the first; the same goes for the remaining ones.
As the water mana coursed through his inner body, Jacob's mind started to become calm as the flames around his body no longer hurt so much. Especially after he stopped breathing, he felt a strange heat inside him rising very slowly.
Furthermore, that heat wasn't painful but gentle, and as his breathing was completely stopped for around an hour, that gentle flame began to become more apparent.
Moreover, right at this moment, Jacob was shocked because the 10X gravity suddenly descended upon him, and he nearly opened his eyes with sheer shock.
'Don't tell me, since I can now hold my breath for around 72 hours, the G-force will be the same at the peak of water mediation? Moreover, the true fire meditation will only start once I reach my limit. If that's the case, then didn't it mean if the fire meditation also turned up gravity every hour, I need to handle 1200 extra G-force to complete this exercise?!' Jacob felt extremely alarmed when he thought about it.
He never expected that the G-force would come back like this because when he tried water mediation, the G-force never occurred, and he thought he was done with that phase.
But it didn't mean never to think about it coming back in fire meditation. However, he never expected it to come when the fire meditation hadn't even started yet. He might be confident in handling 1200 G force, but he wasn't sure if he could handle 720 extra G force. It was simply too much for his body. Follow current s on novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ
However, the thing was, now there was no turning back; he had started the fire meditation initial process, and he had already started to feel its effect.
Furthermore, the water magic core was clearly needed for this exercise as it was protecting him from burning alive. He didn't know what would happen if he broke his meditation now.
So, all he could do now was trust in Art of Nature and continue on since this hadn't disappointed him ever.
Jacob's mind returned to tranquility again once he regained his resolve. Hour after hour, the G-force continued to increase while the heat within Jacob was getting intense, and the feeling of burning alive was completely gone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, right now, Jacob's outer appearance is completely different. He appeared like a dry, charred corpse sitting within golden flames, yet for some strange reason, there was no sign of him burning.
Furthermore, the g-force seemed to be not affecting the surrounding area at all like previous times. It was like only Jacob could truly feel it, or it might be just an illusion at this moment; no one knows.
Just like that, the 72nd hour passed, and Jacob felt like he was crushing down under a mountain, but strangely, the heat he felt at the start of the meditation was now a raging flame burning within him.
Furthermore, he didn't run out of mana. In fact, Jacob was startled when he found that the water mana was becoming more and more potent as the G-force continued to increase. This could only mean that this water core rank was finally started to increase!
This came as a great shock and pleasantly surprise, which gave Jacob even more motivation to persevere. Right at this moment, he finally reached his limit, and despite his mountainous pressure, he was not going to back down.
Right at this moment, Jacob's completely charred lips suddenly parted slightly as cracks appeared all over his face, and shockingly, green fire suddenly breathed out, not empty air!
The moment the green fire escaped from his mouth, the golden flames around him churned, and the next moment, they started to swirl around his body.
However, this wasn't the end; the green flame seemed to be heavy as stone, and it fell over Jacob's body and started to burn.
When Jacob inhaled again, the golden flames sucked into his body, and when he exhaled next time, more green flames gushed out. The new green flame added to the already burning green flames, turning it larger and more intense.
Consequently, more and more golden flames from the surrounding started to gather around Jacob, and he also sucked more golden flames every time he breathed.
This was the sign of fire meditation successfully starting!
