In fact, the moment she established a connection with the green flame just now, Jiandan had already recognized its origin.
The green flame was the Fire within Wood, ranking twentieth on the Heavenly Flame List. Because wood generates fire, this flame is relatively mild, making it most suitable for cultivators with a Fire Spiritual Root. Furthermore, it provides a bonus when refining medicinal pills, increasing the success rate.
Heavenly flames are divided into the outer flame, the inner flame, and the flame core. Just now, Jiandan's divine sense was supposed to be imprinted upon the flame core. However, the Fire within Wood had already developed a trace of consciousness and was unwilling to be bound. Therefore, it used its inner flame to forge a fake core, believing it had fooled Jiandan, and lurked within the roots of her Fire Spiritual Root, intending to devour it to grow stronger.
