It was indeed a killer move created specifically for close combat.
However, Lin Yan chose this Gu mainly to strengthen his physique and raise the limit of the Otherworldly Flame Gu his body could withstand. The second reason was because it matched extremely well with Six-Armed Heavenly God Gu.
Transformation Path and Strength Path had always been closely connected.
If the Six-Armed Divine Fire Yama only amplified killer moves, then its potential would be far too wasted.
But once Netherfire Dragon Python Strength Gu and Crimson Fire Handprint Gu were integrated into it, his close-combat ability would rise to an entirely different level.
"With Five Aperture Fire Furnace Gu, Six-Armed Heavenly God Gu, Crimson Fire Handprint Gu, and Netherfire Dragon Python Strength Gu as the four cores, an entirely new Six-Armed Divine Fire Yama killer move can be created."
Lin Yan's eyes grew brighter as his thoughts expanded further.
"Its power will definitely surpass the previous version by several times. In the future, it may even gain the qualifications to resist heavenly calamities and earthly disasters."
With Master attainment in both Flame Path and Refinement Path, combined with the wisdom accumulated by the Family over hundreds of years, the new Six-Armed Divine Fire Yama would definitely not be weaker than Fang Yuan's Six-Armed Heavenly Zombie King killer move before his Immortal Ascension.
Moreover, once Prairie Fire incorporated Great Sun Clear Sky Gu and Prairie Fire Gu as its two Rank 5 core Gu Worms, the killer move's destructive range would become truly terrifying.
Similarly, Hand of Destruction could be pushed even further by using Crimson Fire Handprint Gu as its core.
"Unfortunately, my Fusion Fire Gu is still only Rank 4."
Lin Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. "If it could advance to Rank 5, then the power of Six-Armed Divine Fire Yama would rise to another level."
The more he thought about it, the more suitable Fusion Fire Gu seemed as his future vital Gu if he truly intended to walk the Flame Path all the way toward Immortal Ascension.
Because of this, he had to deduce a Rank 5 refinement recipe for it. And eventually… even a Rank 6 Immortal Gu recipe.
"So many things to handle…" Lin Yan could not help but sigh.
The more he cultivated, the more he realized that Rank 5 was only the true beginning. To ascend to Immortal required an unimaginable amount of foundation.
He needed to deduce Rank 5 Gu recipes, improve killer moves such as Six-Armed Divine Fire Yama, Prairie Fire, and Hand of Destruction, construct Wisdom Path killer moves centered around Fire Thought Gu, while also cultivating simultaneously inside dream realms.
Over the next month, Lin Yan also refined three Otherworldly Flame Gu from the Family inheritance that he did not yet possess: Phoenix Fire Gu, Heavenly Flame Gu, and Fallen Heart Flame Gu. All three were Rank 4 Gu.
The first two were pure Flame Path Otherworldly Flames.
Phoenix Fire Gu possessed the ability of rebirth through flames. Within the Family's true inheritance, it was considered a healing-type Flame Path Gu.
When combined with Fire Heart Gu, it could even produce a miraculous effect close to reviving the dead.
As for Heavenly Flame Gu, it was said to inherit a flame from the heavens themselves. It possessed no special abilities beyond one thing alone—absolute destructive power.
As for Fallen Heart Flame Gu, it was connected to Wisdom Path. It could directly attack a person's mind while also protecting the soul and body, making it effective against both Soul Path and Wisdom Path Gu Masters.
Including Netherflame, the number of Otherworldly Flame Gu under Lin Yan's control had now reached eight types in total. However, properly integrating all of them into killer moves would still require a great deal of time and effort.
With Phoenix Fire Gu, Life Spirit Fire Gu, and Fire Heart Gu, Lin Yan could already form a complete Flame Path healing killer move.
Meanwhile, the original Rank 3 Accumulated Ash Gu had gradually become outdated for him, so he simply abandoned it altogether.
He looked inward at his aperture. Various Gu worms filled the space densely, each emitting a powerful aura. There were now seven Rank 5 Gu and more than twenty Rank 4 Gu.
Rank 5: Six-Armed Heavenly God Gu, Great Sun Clear Sky Gu, Dream Derivation Gu, Five Aperture Fire Furnace Gu, Prairie Fire Gu, Netherfire Dragon Python Strength Gu, Crimson Fire Handprint Gu.
Rank 4: Fusion Fire Gu, Stone Turtle Gu, Sleepwalking Gu, Life Spirit Fire Gu, Mystic Yellow Earth Fire Gu, Sea Heart Flame Gu, Golden Emerald Sharp Fire Gu, Phoenix Fire Gu, Heavenly Flame Gu, Fallen Heart Flame Gu, Yang Flame Explosion Gu, Scarlet Dragon Flame Armor Gu, Flame Sparrow Wing Gu, Flame Flash Gu, Hearth God Eye Gu, Blazing Fury Gu, Fiercer Fights Gu, Sparks Gu, Fire Thought Gu.
Rank 3: Two Elder Gu, Big Eater Gu, Earth Kiln Gu, Glass Flame Bone Gu (already consumed), Fire Soul Gu (already consumed), Strengthen Soul Gu (already consumed).
As for Sleepwalking Gu, it had gradually risen to Rank 4 over the past few months as Lin Yan continuously explored dream realms.
Lin Yan recalled Sun Cu's vast collection of killer moves and quietly compared them to his own foundation. Once he fully mastered and coordinated this entire set of Gu, he believed he would no longer be inferior to him.
The large-scale Gu refinement work was mostly complete. Next, he planned to refine Gu for Sun Cu while simultaneously deducing killer moves within dream realms, continuously accumulating his foundation and rapidly raising his combat strength.
At the same time, Lin Yan did not forget to occasionally visit the auctions within the Ten Thousand Li Silk Corridor shopping district, searching for Flame Path Gu recipes and rare Gu worms. More importantly, he was purchasing large quantities of Relic Gu.
His original two million primeval stones had already fallen to around one million. And every month, Sun Cu's granddaughter, Sun Yue, would personally come to collect the Gu worms Lin Yan had refined according to their agreement.
