Chapter 153: Lin Yan Absorbs the Nirvana Heart
In a spacious secret chamber, an eerie silence prevailed.
Lin Yan stood still, so still that he could hear the faint whisper of the wind around him. However, inside his monk's robe, Yao Lao suddenly felt a bit frustrated. After all, Lin Yan had abruptly interrupted their previous conversation. How could he suddenly become so distracted? This puzzled Yao Lao, as he knew Lin Yan was not a person without manners.
Unable to contain himself, Yao Lao began to question Lin Yan, "Young friend, what is happening?"
Upon hearing Yao Lao's question, Lin Yan finally snapped out of his daze. However, even with his deep black eyes, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion. His expression was full of excitement as he told Yao Lao, "Yao Lao, I've just completed another sign-in."
Yao Lao immediately understood. It seemed Lin Yan had been distracted by the system. This made sense, as the system was always unpredictable. It was no surprise that Lin Yan's attention was suddenly absorbed by it.
Thus, Yao Lao didn't dwell on it and instead asked Lin Yan with curiosity, "In that case, young friend, what did you get this time?"
"The fifteenth on the Heavenly Flame List, Sea Heart Flame!" Lin Yan tried to contain his excitement as he said this.
"Sea Heart Flame?" This time, it was Yao Lao who was stunned.
Although he had mentioned the possibility of signing in a Heavenly Flame earlier, at that time, Yao Lao had said it offhandedly, knowing that the chances were extremely slim. Who would have thought that Lin Yan would actually sign in a new Heavenly Flame this time?
And not just any flame—it was the Sea Heart Flame, which ranked even higher than the Blue Lotus Heart Flame!
Thinking of this, Yao Lao's eyes filled with excitement, and he couldn't help but congratulate Lin Yan. "After devouring this Sea Heart Flame, young friend, you will possess two Heavenly Flames. This will not only elevate your fire techniques but also make the Furious Lotus Heart Flame you developed last time truly powerful."
Lin Yan nodded excitedly.
The enhancement of his fire techniques would lead to an overall increase in his strength. Moreover, merging the new Heavenly Flame would result in a power greater than both the Blue Lotus Heart Flame and the Sea Heart Flame combined, which would be immensely beneficial for Lin Yan.
Most importantly, devouring this new Heavenly Flame should provide him with a significant boost in elemental energy, giving him the opportunity to break through to the Formation Realm.
In short, acquiring this new Heavenly Flame was of great importance to Lin Yan. Once he successfully absorbed it, his overall strength would surely reach a new level.
Lin Yan couldn't resist summoning the Sea Heart Flame. With his call, a blue flame instantly appeared in the palm of his hand.
Since it had not yet been tamed, the Sea Heart Flame was still a bit wild. When it appeared, it emanated a terrifying temperature, making Lin Yan's entire body feel as if it were burning.
"It's surprising that you managed to sign in this type of Heavenly Flame," Yao Lao remarked with a sigh as he looked at the flame before him.
Lin Yan also heard the nostalgia in Yao Lao's voice. Knowing Yao Lao's past well, Lin Yan could guess that seeing the Sea Heart Flame reminded Yao Lao of his disciple, Han Feng.
Immediately, Lin Yan assured Yao Lao, "Don't worry, Yao Lao. I will soon be able to help you rebuild your body. After we resolve everything here, I'll accompany you to the Dou Qi Continent. When the time comes, I'll make those who attacked you pay the price."
Yao Lao was momentarily stunned by this but soon his melancholy vanished completely. He was truly grateful to Han Feng. If not for this traitor who had attacked him, he might never have found Lin Yan, his forgotten friend.
Therefore, he smiled at Lin Yan and said, "Alright, when the time comes, I'll count on you to accompany me to the Dou Qi Continent. Once everything is settled, according to our previous agreement, we'll explore that vast world together!"
Lin Yan nodded with a smile at Yao Lao.
Lin Yan quickly concealed the Sea Heart Flame. When Yao Lao saw this, he reminded him, "Young friend, it is better to refine the Sea Heart Flame when we return. After all, refining a Heavenly Flame is no trivial matter. Even though you've refined the Blue Lotus Heart Flame, refining another Heavenly Flame still requires caution. Moreover, there are many opportunities within this ancient tomb. The most important thing now is to ensure you obtain all the opportunities here."
Lin Yan agreed and nodded his head.
Yao Lao was right; absorbing the Heavenly Flame should not be taken lightly. Furthermore, the flame was already his and wouldn't disappear. The most important thing now was to seize all the opportunities within the ancient tomb.
Thus, Lin Yan didn't linger in this place any longer. He continued moving forward and soon found a large broken door, with many magical puppet limbs scattered on the ground. The marks on the ground also showed signs of a fierce battle that had taken place here.
Lin Yan pressed on and noticed the battle marks on the ground intensified, with several medium-rank magical puppet bodies lying on the floor. It seemed those who could defeat the medium-rank magical puppets here were none other than Lin Langtian and the others.
Thinking of this, Lin Yan felt uneasy and continued forward, only to discover a mysterious light barrier. He tried to scan it with his mental energy but found that his energy couldn't penetrate the barrier. However, he was not willing to stop here, so he stepped forward directly.
Suddenly, Lin Yan felt everything go black before him. After that, an intense heat wave rushed towards him.
"Blue Lotus Heart Flame," Lin Yan called out.
Lin Yan had no fear of fire, possessing the Blue Lotus Heart Flame as a Heavenly Flame. So, when the flames rushed towards him, he simply summoned his Blue Lotus Heart Flame calmly. Instantly, the flames seemed to submit as if seeing their king, and they dared not approach Lin Yan. Meanwhile, Lin Yan surveyed the area.
"Another formation. I didn't expect the owner of this ancient tomb to play with formations as well," he mused.
"Oh, that's Lin Langtian and the others," Lin Yan murmured to himself and then quickly saw that amidst the sea of flames, Lin Langtian and Wang Yan, along with others, were trapped by the flames.
Their situation was not as good as Lin Yan's. Although their strength was considerable, facing these terrifying flames, they could only barely defend themselves and couldn't advance at all.
"Hehe, sorry, I'll keep going," Lin Yan couldn't help but chuckle upon seeing this. Especially seeing several people constantly being beaten back by these flames, Lin Yan couldn't contain his laughter.
He moved forward confidently. Due to the protection of the Blue Lotus Heart Flame, the flames couldn't affect him in the slightest, allowing him to walk as if on solid ground.
Meanwhile, Lin Langtian and the others, although bravely fighting the flames, quickly noticed Lin Yan's movements. "How is this possible? These flames have no effect on him?" "Who is this guy?" "That green flame on his body seems to intimidate even these flames?"
Lin Langtian and the others were astonished, exchanging glances, and they could see the great surprise in each other's eyes. Considering themselves the best of the younger generation in the Great Yan Empire, they still couldn't completely free themselves from these flames. But this guy, who appeared out of nowhere, how could he do something they couldn't?
At this moment, everyone felt deeply impacted.
"Stop him! He's about to get through!" Seeing Lin Yan getting further and further away, even about to cross this sea of fire, Lin Langtian and the others became very anxious and decided to attack Lin Yan directly. However, under the interference of this sea of flames, they could barely protect themselves and it was impossible to attack Lin Yan.
Therefore, in the end, although Lin Langtian and the others spoke bravely, none of them had the ability to face Lin Yan. They could only watch helplessly as Lin Yan walked away.
At this moment, with Lin Yan's figure disappearing completely from their sight, the faces of Lin Langtian and the others turned completely cold. Due to the surrounding sea of flames, they couldn't clearly see Lin Yan's appearance, but they could guess he was someone of their age. "When did someone like this appear in the Great Yan Empire?" A great doubt arose in everyone's heart.
Once this doubt emerged, even Lin Langtian, the pride of the heavens, suddenly felt a bit upset. "Is his strength superior to mine?"
Lin Yan didn't pay attention to Lin Langtian and the others. Although their status was higher than his, in terms of skills, he had his own specialties. Faced with this formation, Lin Yan had several ways to get through, but they didn't know about heavenly flames, didn't understand formations, and didn't have pills. With just this fire formation, they might be stuck for months without being able to advance.
Therefore, Lin Yan didn't even bother to look at them. He continued moving forward and saw a large bronze door. But at this moment, the bronze door was open, which surprised Lin Yan.
"If Lin Langtian and the others are outside, how is this door open?" "Could it be... Ling Qingzhu?"
Lin Yan suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Ling Qingzhu's shadow earlier, so it was very likely she had arrived here before him. "It seems she has her own tricks," Lin Yan murmured to himself.
But since he had come this far, he couldn't just stop. Anyway, he had to take a look. So Lin Yan didn't stop and entered directly.
Upon entering, Lin Yan discovered a tranquil stone chamber. This stone chamber was not heavily decorated and was quite simple. It had few decorations and was completely empty. In the center of the stone chamber, there was an open stone coffin, on which a vigorous, life-filled light was concentrated. Beside it, a green lotus flower floated, then a young woman with a graceful figure and jade feet extended her finger.
"It's definitely Ling Qingzhu," Lin Yan thought as he saw the young woman with a graceful figure and jade feet, confirming her identity. But soon, his expression turned a bit excited. Because he suddenly remembered something—this Nirvana Heart didn't seem simple!
So he shouted towards Ling Qingzhu in front, "Miss Qingzhu, be careful! That Nirvana Heart has a problem!"
But it was too late. Before Lin Yan's words finished, Ling Qingzhu extended her delicate finger and gently touched the Nirvana Heart. As if touching a drop of water, the Nirvana Heart emitted ripples. After that, the entire Nirvana Heart turned into a ray of light and entered the young woman's body.
At first, Ling Qingzhu felt a pure energy entering her body. Influenced by this energy, her aura seemed to become even stronger. But soon, she realized the gravity of the situation. Because it seemed that along with the energy entering from the Nirvana Heart, the temperature of her body began to rise crazily. Then, various areas of her body became extremely hot and itchy.
"What's happening?" "Ah?" Ling Qingzhu couldn't help but come out of her cultivation state, feeling her body becoming extremely sensitive. Finally, even due to the clenching of her thighs, she couldn't help but moan. Hearing her own shameful moan, Ling Qingzhu's face turned slightly red, but the sweat on her body became even more abundant.
"In my life, I have reached nirvana with the power of yin and yang. Therefore, what I left behind must be resolved through the harmony of yin and yang. If yin and yang are not harmonized, you will be burned."
Suddenly, a man's voice sounded. Lin Yan and Ling Qingzhu looked in the direction of the sound and, indeed, found the shadow of a man's soul looking at them with a smile.
