Chapter 64: Subduing the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire! Upgrading the Incineration Technique!
Inside the secret chamber, the green flames surged violently. As the flames continued to burn, the surrounding space showed signs of distortion. Lin Yan held the rare flame in his hand, and upon witnessing this scene, he was astonished. He hadn't expected the temperature of the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire to be so terrifying!
"Extend your palm into the center of the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire, where there's a strand of fire seed. Use your fingers to extract it, then absorb it using the Incineration Technique!" However, the Medicine Elder didn't give Lin Yan much time to think. Seeing the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire appear and the temperature in the secret chamber soar, the Medicine Elder immediately issued a command.
"Alright!" Lin Yan replied immediately, fully trusting the Medicine Elder. Moreover, he had never devoured a rare flame before. If he didn't listen to the Medicine Elder, he wouldn't be able to consume it.
Therefore, Lin Yan immediately extended his finger, using the Blood Shackles to resist the heat and directly extracted the strand of fire seed from the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire.
Despite the protection of the Blood Shackles, squeezing the fire seed in his hand made Lin Yan feel like his fingers were almost melting from the heat. He paused for a moment before looking at the Medicine Elder again, "Elder Yao, what's next?"
"Absorb the cold power from the Thousand-Year Ice Jade, then swallow the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire!" The Medicine Elder's voice rang out again.
Upon hearing the Medicine Elder's instructions, Lin Yan couldn't help but hesitate for a moment. But he quickly decided to follow through, extracting the cold power from the Thousand-Year Ice Jade and then swallowing the fire seed without further ado.
A severe pain suddenly struck, and Lin Yan felt as if his throat was emitting black smoke. The veins in his body were also destroyed by the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire.
Seeing this, the Medicine Elder's eyes revealed a hint of admiration. Lin Yan's decisive actions not only demonstrated his absolute trust in himself but also showcased his immense courage, unafraid of death. Back then, when he obtained the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, he spent a day and night holding onto it before finally mustering the courage to swallow it.
However, Lin Yan, after just a brief hesitation, swallowed it directly into his stomach, a feat that even impressed the Medicine Elder.
"Don't die, young friend!"
"We've made a pact to venture into the Great Thousand World together."
Quietly murmuring to himself, the Medicine Elder also looked at Lin Yan with a solemn expression.
Finally, he noticed that Lin Yan's breath gradually stabilized, prompting him to remind Lin Yan, "Now is the time. Activate the Incineration Technique, envelop the rare flame with elemental energy, and continuously devour it according to the route of the technique within your body!"
Lin Yan was too weak to reply to the Medicine Elder. At this moment, he was using all his strength to tame the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire within his body.
However, the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire was extremely violent. Initially, no matter how Lin Yan tried to control it, it rampaged like a mad bull, causing him to cough up blood repeatedly.
But Lin Yan never gave up, persistently attempting to subdue it. After nearly a day and night of taming, the strand of Qinglian Earth Heart Fire finally began to assimilate with the Incineration Technique under continuous operation.
"Is it finally successful?"
The Medicine Elder rejoiced upon seeing this and took out the Spirit Gathering Pearl. With a flick of his finger, the Spirit Gathering Pearl turned into a blue spiritual light, injecting into Lin Yan's body.
Lin Yan raised his eyebrows because he suddenly realized that with the infusion of the Spirit Gathering Pearl, the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire seemed to be sealed by something strange, making it easier to control and no longer causing harm to his flesh.
A satisfied smile appeared on his lips, and he began the final step of devouring the rare flame, fully integrating it with the Incineration Technique to become his own source flame.
Lin Yan fell silent for half a day.
Half a day later, after completely refining the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire, Lin Yan finally opened his eyes.
But his first action was to take out several healing pills from his Medicine Bracelet and swallow them.
Although he had successfully refined the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire, the injuries left by it had not yet healed. Therefore, after swallowing several healing pills, Lin Yan quickly began to heal.
He spent several hours cultivating his energy, waiting until he fully absorbed the medicinal power of the pills and his previous injuries from swallowing the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire were completely healed.
Lin Yan opened his eyes.
"How is it? Did it work, young friend?"
The Medicine Elder had been watching him all this time and couldn't wait to ask when he saw Lin Yan open his eyes.
"It worked! Elder Yao, I successfully subdued the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire!"
Lin Yan opened his palm, and immediately, a green flame appeared. It was a rare flame with extremely high temperature. As soon as the flame emerged, the temperature in the secret chamber soared. However, Lin Yan had complete control over the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire at this point, so it no longer affected him.
"Excellent! Congratulations, young friend!"
The Medicine Elder laughed happily. Although it was Lin Yan who obtained the rare flame, his joy was no less than Lin Yan's.
He quickly asked Lin Yan, "By the way, did your cultivation technique upgrade?"
Lin Yan nodded and immediately activated his Incineration Technique. He quickly realized that the speed of his technique had increased several times compared to before. Seeing this, the Medicine Elder made a rough judgment, "It seems to have reached the intermediate stage of Profound Grade."
"That's already very good. After all, swallowing a rare flame is almost equivalent to a major advancement. If you continue to swallow more rare flames in the future..."
The Medicine Elder's voice carried a hint of anticipation, indicating his growing expectations. He looked forward to seeing Lin Yan swallow more rare flames and evolve the Incineration Technique into a Heavenly Grade technique.
"However, the breakthrough to the Yuan Dan Realm will need to be postponed."
"After all, the Bone Spirit Cold Fire is my flame. Extracting the Yin and Evil power from it and controlling it will also require some time for nurturing."
He quickly conveyed this to Lin Yan.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan readily agreed.
At this point, he was not in a hurry anymore. After all, he had successfully subdued the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire, and the Bone Spirit Cold Fire belonged to the Medicine Elder.
So the top-notch Yin and Evil powers and the Yang Power were definitely within reach.
He stood up, couldn't help but stretch, and smiled faintly. Although his realm hadn't advanced, after undergoing the refinement of the rare flame this time, Lin Yan felt that his physical body had been greatly strengthened.
"It's time to go out. I've spent quite a bit of time in this cultivation session."
After a faint smile, Lin Yan quickly walked out.
Outside the door, Lin Xiao and the others, who had been taking turns guarding, became extremely excited when they saw Lin Yan come out.
"Yan'er, you finally came out?!"
Lin Yan nodded with a smile. As for Lin Xiao and the others, they immediately led Lin Yan to the main hall of the family, informed Lin Zhentian, and arranged food for him, quietly watching Lin Yan eat.
Lin Yan ate voraciously. After all, this cultivation session had been extremely exhausting for him, and not having eaten for so long had left him famished.
He finally finished his meal, satisfied, and burped. Lin Zhentian and the others, seeing Lin Yan finally full, couldn't contain their curiosity any longer and couldn't help but ask Lin Yan, "Yan'er, how did it go? Did you break through to the Yuan Dan Realm?"
"I feel that your aura has improved a lot compared to when you just entered the secret chamber!"
Lin Yan shook his head upon hearing this and replied to Lin Zhentian, "Grandpa, I haven't broken through yet, but I should be able to soon."
"More than that, I gained a lot from this closed-door cultivation session."
"How about we spar a bit?"
Everyone was slightly stunned upon hearing this.
Especially the younger generation of the family, when they heard that Lin Yan wanted to spar with Lin Zhentian, the strongest member of the Lin family, they were extremely shocked, as if they had misheard.
But Lin Zhentian quickly reacted. After all, he also wanted to know Lin Yan's current strength.
Therefore, upon hearing Lin Yan's words, Lin Zhentian quickly showed an excited expression and then directly smiled at Lin Yan, "Good! Let's try it!"
"Let's go to the martial arts arena!"
