Chapter 60: Signing in at the Depths of the Vein, Blue Lotus Core Fire!
Knowing that there might be a possibility of the existence of Strange Fire in this place, even Lin Yan couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.
After all, Strange Fire is no ordinary thing.
It's a chance encounter, not something you can seek out!
Moreover, at this moment, his need for Strange Fire is incredibly huge.
It's not just for breaking through the Incineration Technique; more importantly, with the help of Master Yao's Bone-Chilling Cold Fire, he only lacks a type of Yang-positive Strange Fire to achieve the harmony between Yin and Yang!
Without this new Strange Fire, he won't be able to use Master Yao's Bone-Chilling Cold Fire, which would be a waste. Most importantly, the quality of the Dan formed without the matching Yin and Yang energies will be far inferior, like building a house on a shaky foundation.
Therefore, for Lin Yan at this moment, whether he can obtain a new Strange Fire in a short period of time is crucial.
"Elder Yao, let's continue forward."
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Lin Yan looked towards Master Yao.
"Alright, let's go this way."
Master Yao was also very excited. After all, being able to obtain Strange Fire means the possibility of resurrection for him, which is also extremely important.
After nodding to Lin Yan, Master Yao quickly sensed the surrounding area and soon found an area where the fire attribute elements were the most concentrated. He pointed in that direction and said to Lin Yan, "Little guy, come here!"
"Thanks to you this time, but it's better not to wander around. This place is not simple, so be careful."
Lin Yan nodded at Master Yao and then let the Nine-Colored Devouring Python follow behind him. The python had grown quite large by now and couldn't coil around Lin Yan's shoulders like it used to when it was young, so Lin Yan let it follow behind him.
The python obediently nodded at Lin Yan and then followed closely behind him after sticking out its tongue.
Avoiding the magma pool they saw earlier, they followed Master Yao's guidance towards another cave.
As they went deeper, the air became hotter, which made Lin Yan feel more excited. The higher the temperature, the closer they were to the treasure. Just the thought that the treasure might be Strange Fire made Lin Yan's eyes burn with anticipation.
"Wait, there's a monster ahead."
As Lin Yan continued walking, Master Yao suddenly stopped him and warned him.
Lin Yan raised his eyebrows and quickly used his mental power to investigate the area. He soon found a red-skinned monster ahead. It was a giant wolf with sharp fangs and red eyes. When Lin Yan investigated with his mental power, he found that the monster was drinking magma from the pool, looking quite satisfied.
"What a strong monster. Its strength is probably beyond that of a typical Yuan Dan Stage."
Lin Yan quickly realized the extraordinary nature of the monster. Although he didn't recognize what kind of monster it was, he knew he couldn't defeat it.
So he quickly looked at Master Yao beside him.
"Elder Yao, could you please handle this monster?"
Master Yao smiled and nodded at Lin Yan.
"Leave it to me, young friend."
In the past, he didn't interfere with Lin Yan's growth because those were just minor skirmishes, and he didn't want to meddle too much in Lin Yan's development for his own good. But now that opportunity was right in front of them, he couldn't afford to sit back.
So after hearing Lin Yan's words, Master Yao agreed directly and quickly rushed forward.
Roar!
Master Yao's sudden charge quickly caught the attention of the wolf. It roared angrily at Master Yao and spewed flames towards him.
But how could Master Yao be afraid of flames? With a slight smile, he flicked his finger, and a small Bone-Chilling Cold Fire appeared in the path of the flames.
Master Yao didn't even move, but when the flames were about to reach the Bone-Chilling Cold Fire, they stopped, as if bowing to an emperor, and lost all their power.
"Strange Fire, obey!"
"Indeed, the Bone-Chilling Cold Fire!"
Seeing this, Lin Yan's eyes lit up even more, and his desire for Strange Fire grew stronger.
And suddenly, he had another thought: which is stronger, the Strange Fire in this world or the fire elemental symbols?
Lin Yan continued to look ahead.
Without the assistance of flames, the monster was like a toothless beast, no longer posing any threat.
Afterwards, Master Yao quickly controlled the Strange Fire to attack the monster, and as soon as the Bone-Chilling Cold Fire dissipated, the monster's body turned into an ice sculpture, completely lifeless.
Hiss!
The Nine-Colored Devouring Python then dug out the monster's core and swallowed it in one gulp before following closely behind Master Yao and Lin Yan.
As they continued forward, they finally found the treasure of this place.
"Unfortunately, it's not Strange Fire."
"It's a high-grade fire attribute spiritual herb."
Master Yao sighed disappointedly.
Although this spiritual herb was very useful, it was still inferior to Strange Fire.
After all, for Lin Yan at this moment, the role of Strange Fire is obviously greater.
The Nine-Colored Devouring Python then approached and swallowed it again.
Seeing this, Lin Yan couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
This little guy is truly a gold-swallowing beast. If it's something good, it will swallow it without any hesitation.
Sighing helplessly, Lin Yan knew he had gotten his hopes up for nothing and felt a bit disappointed.
"Alas, it was all for nothing."
"But it's fine; consider it a favor to you, little guy."
"A high-grade monster core and a rare fire attribute spiritual herb, all swallowed by you."
"Little guy, don't forget my kindness when you become stronger in the future."
Lin Yan patted the Nine-Colored Devouring Python's head and said to it.
Hiss!
The python had grown stronger and could now understand human speech, so after hearing Lin Yan's words, it stuck out its tongue at him and then rubbed its head against Lin Yan's face.
Lin Yan felt a slight comfort in his heart.
He patted the python's head again and then turned to leave with Master Yao. After all, they had obtained the treasure, and there was no point in staying here any longer.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as he turned around, the system's voice sounded directly in his ear.
And upon hearing the system's voice, Lin Yan's entire being became completely excited.
