Chapter 230: Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Python? Imperial Blooded Beast!
Is the energy accumulated by a strange fire like the Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame over a thousand years only enough for Xiao Yan to advance from a Two-Star Dou Master to a Four-Star Dou Master? Clearly, the boost from the Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame to Xiao Yan goes far beyond what has been seen so far.
"Most strange fires in this world are manifestations of the great power of heaven and earth. Some strange fires may be born in the moment of the meeting of yin and yang, life and death, burning and ashes, all completed in an instant, or born in the midst of a storm. A strange fire like the Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame, which grows continuously, should theoretically not be ranked so low. Perhaps it's because a fully developed Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame has never appeared in this world." Jiang Lin bent down to pick up the cyan lotus platform. To him, it was a super treasure, an exceptional fire-element spirit object!
"Are you saying that the Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame still has the potential to reveal its true power?" Xiao Yan looked at the cyan flame in his hand with some surprise. As for Jiang Lin picking up the cyan lotus platform, Xiao Yan had no objections. After all, Jiang Lin had contributed a lot during Xiao Yan's acquisition of the Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame.
First of all, it was Jiang Lin who brought the news of the Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame to him. Secondly, when they were at Medusa's Temple, Jiang Lin had appeared at the right time to help block the rear. If it hadn't been for Jiang Lin, Yun Yun, who wore the Four-Leaf Qingchan Wings, would have caused even Yao Chen to feel hopeless. Her speed was simply too fast—there was no way to stop her immediately, and even escaping was impossible.
Now, the greatest benefit of the Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame was obtained by Xiao Yan himself. Although the cyan lotus platform was a treasure that could accelerate cultivation, no treasure could compare to a humanoid treasure like Jiang Lin.
Moreover, Yao Chen had quietly told Xiao Yan that Jiang Lin was on a somewhat special path, and Xiao Yan should try to build a good relationship with him. That way, whether Jiang Lin was alive or dead, Xiao Yan could benefit.
"Do you remember the Pure Lotus Demon Fire I told you about?" When the topic of revealing one's true power came up, Yao Chen suddenly thought of something else and simply began discussing the matter of the Ice Emperor, Hai Boudong, with Jiang Lin.
"Hmm? You've already found the second fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire map so quickly?" Jiang Lin looked at Xiao Yan and Yao Chen in disbelief.
Yao Chen was silent under Jiang Lin's gaze and hesitated before replying, "Perhaps... Xiao Yan indeed has some kind of destiny in this."
Xiao Yan just scratched his head and laughed awkwardly, but with his bald head, it was hard to get the laugh out.
"We don't have the complete map yet, but it will be soon. Speaking of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire, this strange fire is somewhat different from others. It was once subdued, and after its host's death, it transformed into the Pure Lotus Demon Saint and revealed its true power. So, theoretically, the Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame, which can continue to grow, has the potential to evolve into 'Green Lotus Sacred Fire.'" Yao Chen had never thought about these issues before, but now, after Jiang Lin mentioned it, he realized that the Green Lotus Earth Heart Flame, being a strange fire capable of continuous growth, had a low starting point but a very high potential.
"However, we don't have the time to wait for the emergence of a Green Lotus Sacred Fire, do we?" Yao Chen asked Jiang Lin. The latter simply shrugged helplessly, saying, "I was just curious when I saw this different kind of strange fire and started questioning the rankings of the strange fires."
"You always have doubts about this and that, don't you?" Yao Chen gave Jiang Lin a somewhat annoyed look. He finally understood why his mindset always broke down when he encountered Jiang Lin—this kid always liked to question what Yao Chen considered to be common knowledge, things that were self-evident.
The key was that Jiang Lin's questions always seemed reasonable. At first, Yao Chen would be stunned, but the more he thought about it, the more he realized that Jiang Lin's doubts made a lot of sense, which made his thoughts become disordered.
No wonder there's a saying that when three refiners get together, a creative genius emerges.
Because, when three alchemists are together:
A: I can refine this and that pill, I'm amazing!
B: Oh please! I have a great herb, do you?
C: I have a unique ancestral method, do you?
But when three refiners are together:
A: Brothers, we've created new materials!
B: Give me some! I'll trade you the blueprints!
C: Let me take a look! I have a good idea!
The secrecy of the alchemy process makes alchemists rarely cooperate. However, the highly open nature of the refining process leads to frequent collaboration, especially on large projects like formations and barriers.
"To break conventions is to innovate," Jiang Lin chuckled, looking at the cyan lotus platform in his hand. He then glanced at Xiao Yan, who was still rubbing his bald head, unable to laugh, and said, "Don't tell me you forgot to take the Sixth-Grade Magic Core from Queen Medusa's place, huh? Hmm?"
Suddenly, Jiang Lin looked at a certain part of Xiao Yan's black robe, sensing a trace of hostility. "Do you have other little things on you?" Jiang Lin raised an eyebrow.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan quickly opened his robe, and a small, fierce-looking colorful-scaled snake emerged, staring at him angrily.
"Is this... the product of Queen Medusa's evolution?" Jiang Lin's eyes flashed with surprise. With his spiritual perception, he could tell that the small snake coiled around Xiao Yan's wrist had an extraordinary constitution.
"Could this be from the golden race of magical beasts? An Imperial Blood Beast?"
"Eh?" Yao Chen was slightly surprised and looked at Jiang Lin. "You know about these things?"
"I recently visited a small, fallen tribe and heard some stories about the Beast Domain. Also, the Weapon Refiners' Guild recorded that the Serpent Tribe migrated from the southern border of the Beast Domain continent." Jiang Lin, curious, extended his finger to tease the fiercely glaring Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Python, which immediately bit down on Jiang Lin's finger with enough force to break an adult's finger, leaving only a faint tooth mark on his finger.
"Really fierce. No wonder it's from Queen Medusa." Jiang Lin nodded seriously, then flicked his finger lightly, sending the Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Python flying into Xiao Yan's arms. It caused Xiao Yan to cry out in pain and hide in his embrace, not daring to come out.
"The strange fire aura on you is so intense that I couldn't even see this little guy. If it hadn't shown a trace of hostility, I wouldn't have known you had tamed such an ancient beast." Although Jiang Lin didn't know the full legend of the Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Python, he trusted his spiritual perception and was sure of what it was.
This little snake in front of him was indeed from the golden race, or more precisely, an Imperial Blood Beast.
