Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

”Although the temperature of the magma is very high, with your defense, you can completely resist it by using Fire Transformation. Besides, you still have Chu Qing and Chu Tong with you. If you encounter danger, they will also protect you,” Sword Spirit said.

”Alright, I’ll give it a try. I can’t even imagine what it feels like to jump into magma for the first time,” Lin Feng said with a bitter smile. If it were anyone else, this would undoubtedly be courting death.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng steeled his heart and jumped directly into the fiery magma, simultaneously fully unleashing Fire Transformation to blend himself into it. Despite this, he still felt an unprecedented high temperature tormenting him, a sensation countless times more intense than when he had dived down earlier.

Looking around at the magma, Lin Feng noticed many red granular substances emitting light. Even after regaining Qingshuang’s memories, he didn’t know what these things were. Unable to resist, he asked Sword Spirit, ”Sister Yue’Er, what are these glowing things? They seem to have pretty good energy.”

”These are Flame Crystals, a level higher than the Fire Crystals you obtained back then. However, they don’t seem to be of much use to you. You should slowly dive deeper to see if there’s any Li-Fire Crystal in the Earth Fire,” Sword Spirit replied.

At this moment, Lin Feng felt like he was fire itself. If he appeared on the surface, it would undoubtedly cause the surrounding temperature to rise significantly. Enduring the pain coming from his body, he slowly dove deeper, stopping after about half an hour.

Here, there was not much magma left, only boundless flames. He dared not use Divine Sense to inspect, fearing it would be damaged by the Earth Fire. Reaching this point was Lin Feng’s limit; going any further would surely result in being burned to ashes.

However, to search for Li-Fire Crystals, Divine Sense is necessary to detect them. Momentarily, Lin Feng felt very troubled, ”Qing’er, can you use Divine Sense to check the situation in this Earth Fire to see if there’s any Li-Fire Crystal?”

”Big brother, what kind of place is this? The temperature is so high that even my Divine Sense doesn’t dare to manifest here. Try to find some other method!” Chu Qing and Lin Feng exchanged in their minds.

”If even you can’t, then there’s probably no way. Do I really have to enter the Earth Fire and search slowly? That’s too time-consuming. Besides, with my current defense power, I simply can’t enter the Earth Fire,” Lin Feng said helplessly.

”Big brother, the temperature of this Earth Fire is indeed extremely high, making it impossible for ordinary people to approach. It’s already remarkable that you’ve made it this far. However, Tong’er and I can lessen your pain, allowing you to move within the Earth Fire for about an hour. You can use this time to search. Fortunately, it’s Earth Fire, as we would be powerless if it were Celestial Fire,” Chu Qing said.

”Alright, it seems like that’s the only option. Inform me once you can’t hold on anymore, so I can come out of the Earth Fire,” Lin Feng replied.

Subsequently, two Light Shields appeared on Lin Feng’s body, one green and one yellow, greatly alleviating his pain. After glancing at the Earth Fire ahead, Lin Feng jumped straight in.

The Light Shields emitted sizzling sounds, but inside, Lin Feng didn’t feel much, even though he could feel the heat waves rushing in. Thanks to Chu Qing and Chu Tong’s heaven-defying defense power, he could endure it. This was just the initial stages for the two; if they truly grew, it would surely be terrifying.

Lin Feng glanced at the flames beside him, feeling a bit frustrated. Without using Divine Sense, finding a Li-Fire Crystal here was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack. Plus, there’s no guarantee a Li-Fire Crystal even exists, which likely results in a futile effort.

Searching within for a long time, Lin Feng found nothing but flames. Due to the slow movement speed, he grew anxious. Chu Qing and Chu Tong could only sustain the Shields for an hour, requiring him to find something within this time.

Just as Lin Feng began to feel a bit dispirited, the flames ahead suddenly trembled violently. He found it strange, but before he could react, Sword Spirit’s voice came through, ”Lin Feng, be careful!”

The words from Sword Spirit startled Lin Feng; could there be a monster in the Earth Fire? If so, it must be incredibly ferocious and immensely powerful, heaven-defying in strength.

Lin Feng hurriedly retreated, but his speed was slow. At this point, an immense force struck the Light Shield, launching him up to the magma level.

”Ouch!” Chu Qing and Chu Tong said in unison, and the Light Shields on Lin Feng vanished instantly, with the searing sensation spreading all over again.

Startled, Lin Feng immediately asked, ”Qing’er, Tong’er, how are you?”

”Big brother, we’re fine, don’t worry. This place is extremely dangerous. I suggest you leave as soon as possible. Even with our defense, we can’t protect you,” Chu Qing advised.

Lin Feng stood there stunned. If even Chu Qing claimed she couldn’t protect him, what kind of monster must it be? It must be at least Ninth Layer of the Venerable Martial Realm or higher.

Just as Lin Feng prepared to flee upwards, a humanoid figure formed of flames suddenly appeared in the Earth Fire. This figure was immense, with a mouth larger than Lin Feng himself, flames crackling continually, looking very terrifying.

At this moment, Lin Feng felt danger, a sense of peril emerging for the first time from deep within. The presence of this flame creature was like facing a Venerable Martial Realm powerhouse as a Saint Martial Realm practitioner, a fatal threat.

Lin Feng wasn’t foolish. Sensing something amiss, he immediately scrambled upwards, but he felt a powerful suction pulling him back, causing his body to involuntarily recoil.

Panicking in his heart, Lin Feng dreaded the thought of falling back into the Earth Fire, knowing it meant certain death. This time, he regretted listening to Sword Spirit’s words and entering the Earth Fire; the situation had escalated, threatening his very life.

”Lin Feng, don’t panic! This is the Earth Fire Charm, an ancient entity, but its intelligence is very low. To deal with such a creature, you must rely on wit, not force. Stabilize it and earn its trust; only then can you escape from this calamity or even obtain a Li-Fire Crystal.

Wherever an Earth Fire Charm appears, there are surely Li-Fire Crystals. I never expected such a thing to exist here. You must know, Earth Fire Charms survive by feeding on Li-Fire Crystals,” Sword Spirit explained.

Lin Feng was so exasperated he could almost vomit blood. At a time like this, the silly Sword Spirit still had the mood for jokes. He was about to fall into the Earth Fire and could very well be directly devoured by that creature. He had no time to engage in dialogue and build trust.

Feeling the temperature on his body rising, Lin Feng realized the proximity to the Earth Fire was the cause. After the Earth Fire Charm appeared, the surrounding flames transformed into black, becoming even more intense than before, to the point where his muscles seemed on the verge of igniting.

Just as Lin Feng felt utterly helpless, Sword Spirit suddenly said, ”Lin Feng, I read in the ancient books from the Emperor’s Palace that Celestial Fire Charms are very interested in bright things. You might try this approach; your Illusion Stone and Star Stone are possible options. If all fails, use the Sun Shining Stone. Try it first and see.”

”My dear, you’re talking about the Celestial Fire Charm, but this is an Earth Fire Charm, not the same. It seems like the two of us are destined to become a pair of tragic lovers. If there’s a next life, I’ll definitely marry you,” Lin Feng said.

”Don’t jinx it! How do you know if you don’t try? Time is running out, you fool!” Sword Spirit scolded, wishing she weren’t just a Soul Body spirit and could physically handle him. This Earth Fire Charm’s power likely aligns with the Ninth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm, comparable to that of an ordinary Immortal. If it were before, she could have obliterated it with a single strike.

With no other options, Lin Feng immediately took out the largest Illusion Stone from his Storage Ring because the smaller ones had no effect.

The surface of the Illusion Stone emitted a yellow light that shone within the Earth Fire layer. Though not dazzling, it became notably potent due to the emergence of black Earth Fire. At that moment, Lin Feng felt the suction force on his body suddenly cease, making him overjoyed.

”It worked!” This was Lin Feng’s sole thought, indicating the Earth Fire Charm was indeed interested in luminous objects. Lin Feng glanced at the Earth Fire Charm within the Earth Fire. The creature’s eyes, several times larger than lanterns, were fixed on the Illusion Stone in his hands, evidently very interested.

Lin Feng then said to the Earth Fire Charm, ”Don’t be so fierce. I’ve actually come to be your friend. I know you like shiny treasures, so I specifically came to see you!”

Lin Feng initially thought the Earth Fire Charm could speak, but after a while, it didn’t utter a word, making him wonder if this creature was mute and couldn’t speak at all?

”What are you doing here? Leave the item, and I can spare your life. Otherwise, you’ll end up being consumed by me,” a middle-aged man’s voice suddenly appeared in Lin Feng’s mind.

Not expecting the Earth Fire Charm to communicate directly via Divine Sense, Lin Feng responded immediately, ”I’m actually here to see you. I’ve long heard about a powerful Earth Fire Charm dwelling in this Earth Fire for ages. Since childhood, I’ve been fascinated by flames, so I wanted to see what my idol looked like.

Who knew you’d almost knock me to death upon appearance, and now you intend to devour me? That’s a bit unfair. I know you like luminous things, so I worked hard to procure this as a gift for our first meeting.”

”Boy, do you really think it’s easy to deceive me? Believe it or not, I’ll devour you right now!” the Earth Fire Charm roared angrily...
