'The deal is regarding a Divine Flame Rule. Are you interested?'
It was just like how Ajax asked the Stormfire earlier; however, the Stormfire didn't ask him to assure it.
Instead, it just asked whether Ajax was interested in the deal it had.
"A deal regarding Divine Flame Rule? I am interested."
If it was before, Ajax might have thought about it; however, after learning about the usage of the Giant Fire Crystals and having a good number of the Giant Fire Crystals, Ajax thought he could give it a try regarding the Divine Flame Rule.
Even though he could not use the Divine Thunder Rule and the Divine Flame Rule back to back, Ajax thought it would be useful in one or other cases.
Just like how the Thunder Rule was effective against Demonic Beings and Evil Beings, the Flame Rule was effective against Nature-type beings and Wind-type beings.
'If you give me another 1000 Giant Fire Crystals, I will help you instantly awaken a Divine Flame Rule: The Stormfire.'
Once it received Ajax's answer, the Stormfire didn't waste any time as it made an offering.
"You can help the cultivators instantly awaken a Divine Flame Rule?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing that, Ajax was surprised and asked about it.
Ajax thought that since the Stormfire was a Sentient Flame, it might have unlocked the secrets behind a Divine Flame Rule and would guide him slowly in awakening the Divine Falme Rule.
However, he never expected that it could instantly awaken the Divine Flame Rule for the cultivators.
'Of course, I can't do it regularly and could only help a cultivator awaken the Divine Flame Rule every 100 years; however, I don't want to do that and haven't helped anyone for the last 500 years.'
The Stormfire continued, 'However if you are willing to give me only 1000 Giant Fire Crystals, I will help you. What do you say?'
Seeing the surprised look on Ajax's face, the Stormfire became even more confident that Ajax would accept its offer because which cultivator didn't want a Divine Rule?
A Divine Rule is the key to Ascending to the Heavenly Realms. Whether it was a human or a Dragon or a Demon….everyone would fight to death if they can gain a Divine Rule.
"10 Giant Fire Crystals."
However, Ajax said that he would only pay 10 Giant Fire Crystals to awaken an instant Divine Rule.
'What? It looks like you are not interested in the deal.'
Hearing Ajax's quoted price, the Stormfire became a little angry and said, 'Forget it. I will just help a royal descendant.'
'Okay.'
Ajax replied with a smile as he shrugged his hands and focused on his body tempering without bothering to negotiate the price with the Stormfire.
'...'
Seeing that Ajax was not bothering to negotiate, the Stormfire became speechless because this was not what it expected.
The Stormfire lost in its thoughts and as for what it was thinking, it was related to what it should do to make Ajax interested in the deal again.
After so many years, it finally found someone who could bring it some delicious food. As long as he continued to get such delicious food, the Stormfire no longer had to work very hard to separate the Dark Energy from the Darkfire Crystals to make Crude Fire Crystals.
Not only would it make the Stormfire spend so much of its energy but it would also be a time taking process and after having a taste of the Giant Fire Crystal and learning that Ajax had lots of Giant Fire Crystals, it wanted to make more deals with Ajax.
Time continued to pass as one hour passed by and it's been around 10 hours since Ajax and others entered the Flame Chamber.
'Ding,
Congratulations to the host for successfully breaking through to the level 8 King Realm in his Body Cultivation.
'There are still 16 hours left and I just need to break through two minor realms and one major realm. I can do it.'
While the Stormfire was lost in its thoughts, Ajax finally received a system notification regarding his breakthrough to the level 8 King realm, making him quite satisfied.
'Human, how about 100 Giant Fire Crystals?'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing that Ajax had a breakthrough in his body tempering, the Stormfire used this opportunity to propose another deal.
"As I said earlier, I can give not more than 10 Giant Fire Crystals."
Ajax politely declined and thought about it for a moment before saying, "With the help of the Giant Fire Crystals, I can even cultivate a simple fire-type cultivator's law to the Divine Rule. However, it just takes time. That's the reason why I was willing to give 10 Giant Fire Crystals."
"I feel even the 10 Giant Fire Crystals were costly as I can wait and slowly cultivate a Divine Flame with their help."
That's right!
Since a mid-level Fire Crystal can help him increase the Flame Cultivator's Laws and Soul, Ajax could easily upgrade those laws to peak emperor souls before upgrading them to Divine Flame Rule.
'Even though I don't know how to upgrade a peak emperor cultivator's soul into a Divine Rule, I will know it when I reach there.'
Ajax silently thought in his head as he concluded his words, "If you are willing to help me awaken a Divine Flame Rule, I can give you 10 Giant Fire Crystals along with 3500 crystals I owe you."
"Also, if you want more Giant Fire Crystals in the future, we can continue to make these secret deals in which you can give me Darkfire Crystals and I will give you Giant Fire Crystals."
'Really?'
Even though Ajax's initial words made the Stormfire a little worried, it became excited when it heard his last words.
"Of course. We will have more secret deals like today in the future."
Compared to Stormfire, Ajax would be benefiting a lot from the secret deals; however, Ajax was using his abilities like Merging and Diffusing which was priceless.
'Close your eyes and get ready to awaken your Divine Flame Rule.'
The Stormfire was excited after hearing Ajax's words as it urged him and soon, the main Stormfire that was floating in the center moved towards Ajax.
