Chapter 2326 Collective Heating

The Lightning covered the Null Iron Ore in less than a moment and started to subject it to its power.
A few moment's later the power of the array reached the Null Iron ore, as more heat was channeled it the Sky Scorching Claw Dao Embryo.
~HUALA~
With the sudden spike in heat, the Null Iron Ore's surface turned red while the flames started to engulf it in its entirety. In less than ten seconds, the Null Iron Ore chunk couldn't even be seen while the flames only continued to grow.
"More!" Lin Mu urged.
"As you wish!" everyone said, as the poured in their immortal Qi.
~ZAP~
Throngs of Lightning bolts coursed through the channels and entered the Null Iron Ore. The metal was one that resisted everything and had no element to it. But even then, it had its limits and didn't mean that it could stop everything that was thrown to it. The lightning was the same; even if it could not conduct it well, that didn't mean it could block it.
The lightning entered it, and through the resistance provided by the Null Iron Ore, began to release its power within, causing it to heat up from the inside!
The Sky Scorching Claw Dao Embryo did the same from the outside and slowly but surely, the Null Iron Ore started to soften.
~HONGLONG~
And as more and more immortal Qi was directed through the array, the runes on the Sky Scorching Claw Dao Embryo glowed brighter than ever before. The power was transferred to it, while the Dao Traces produced by it increased as well.
The flames that were being created by it contained more and more of Dao Traces, their power starting to erode away at the stubborn properties of the Null Iron Ore.
Minute after minute passed, as the Ore turned white hot.
~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~
But as the temperature rose, the cultivators were also finding it hard to bear it. The three barriers of the Heat Warding Talismans shattered from the heat as three more took their place.
"Already?!" Qiao De hadn't expected the Heat Warding Talismans to not even last five minutes.
He had no idea that this was just the beginning of it all.
"We need more!" Lin Mu said as he raised his hands.
~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~
Searing hot magma was released from the armor around him as it turned into large claws that extended towards the Null Iron Ore. They wrapped around them by sliding under the gaps of the Sky Scorning Claw Dao Embryo, heating the ore even more.
Lin Mu channeled all of his Fire Elemental Immortal Qi through the Longgui Bulwark Armor technique and utilized Magma Fury to the fullest. This was the method for him to produce the highest temperatures that he could at his level. He hadn't comprehended the Fire Dao enough to make a Fire Dao Embryo, but that didn't mean that his comprehension of it was lacking. It was still great, but he was limited by his current state. Without having a stable foundation, he wouldn't be able to gain another Dao Embryo even if he was capable of doing it.
He had already gained three Dao Embryos in a rapid succession compared to almost all immortals. And among them, one was even a unique Spatial Dao Embryo that had never existed before. As such, it was important for him to gain the understanding of them all and be confident that he could handle more.
As such, he tried his best with all that he had. And what he did have was a large store of Immortal Qi that wouldn't lose out to most immortals stronger than him. He kept on pouring more and more of Immortal Qi into the technique, and converted his attributeless Immortal Qi into fire elemental immortal Qi to continue the effort.
While he did this, the others were also working hard.
Those that could use Fire Elemental techniques like Crown Princess Shang, Elder Hu and Daoist Chu did that. The latter two might not be specialized in it, but they still had a decent skill to use fire elemental skills.
The others that didn't know fire elemental skills simply provided their raw immortal Qi to the array and let the Condensing Heat Mantle Array take the task of converting it to heat.
More time passed and more Heat Warding Talisman barriers cracked.
~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~
But as they cracked, more of them activated, protecting the group as much as they could.
More than ten talismans had already been exhausted out of the twenty that Qiao De had handed out. And the Null Iron Ore was still not in the state they wanted.
"Hold on." Lin Mu knew that things were getting far too hot for everyone to bear, and that they were only holding out due to the defensive skills and talismans. "Once we're past the critical point, it'll be done." He added.
The others didn't reply directly, but they did pour more of their immortal Qi as a response. They knew this was no simple task and that they needed to give their all to this. Little Shrubby needed no words and was doing his work without stopping. In fact, his flames were also getting hotter with time, as he increased his comprehension readily with everyone's support.
Thirty minutes passed like this and the Null Iron Ore couldn't even be seen at this point. All one could see was a blinding white object clasped in the embrace of red and orange flames. The lightning which could be seen at the start was no longer visible, having been consumed by the blinding white light of the hot ore.
~CRACK~
"Dammit, we're at the last talisman!" Qiao De observed.
"We can take it!" Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke with confidence. "HAAA!" he channeled more of his lightning, even going as far as to overload his meridians.
~HISS~
This seemed to do the task and the Null Iron Ore was finally pushed past the point of holding its solid form.
