”Senior, wait a moment. I’ll get closer to retrieve it, while you must maintain the protective shield to resist the attacks of the Heavenly Flame and ensure that I won’t be harmed by the Green Lotus Core Flame during this time.”

Hearing the request, Lin Feng turned his head and spoke.

”Alright.”

After responding, Lu Man quickly increased the infusion of Dou Qi, strengthening the protective shield around Lin Feng.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng hurriedly took out a jade blade made of top-grade rouge jade and swallowed a Qi Recovery Pill once again.

Then, with a flap of his purple wings, he shot toward the Green Lotus Core Flame at the fastest speed possible.

At first, Lin Feng encountered no resistance. However, the moment he approached the blue lotus—

The once seemingly docile flame at the center of the lotus platform suddenly turned violent!

A vast expanse of blue flames surged forth, forming a fire curtain that rushed toward Lin Feng with astonishing speed.

The sight made Lin Feng’s heart nearly jump out of his chest.

Fortunately, as the blue fire curtain collided with the protective shield, he only felt the surrounding temperature skyrocket.

But he remained unharmed.

”Hurry up! Even as a Dou Huang, maintaining this level of resistance consumes an enormous amount of Dou Qi!”

Seeing Lin Feng’s movements, Lu Man increased the output of his Dou Qi while urging him to move faster.

”Got it!”

With a quick response, Lin Feng once again accelerated toward the blue lotus.

Before long, he successfully arrived next to it.

Using the jade blade, he gently sliced through the part where the lotus connected to its stem.

Instantly, the exquisite blue lotus, perfect like a work of art, detached and fell.

As the lotus fell, the previously raging fire curtain swiftly retreated into the lotus platform.

And the once-violent Core Flame also regained its docile nature.

Watching the blue lotus float above the magma, Lin Feng quickly grabbed it before turning around and swimming back toward Lu Man.

”So this is a Heavenly Flame... As expected of something born from the heavens and earth—it’s far more violent than any Beast Flame I’ve encountered before.”

Gazing at the flickering Core Flame within the blue lotus platform, Lu Man looked astonished.

He hadn’t expected such a powerful Heavenly Flame to be completely controlled by a mere lotus platform.

”It’s precisely because of this uncontrollable power that people can’t replicate it. That’s why these flames are known as Heavenly Flames.”

Lin Feng casually responded while his gaze flickered toward the eleven lotus seeds beside the lotus platform.

Without hesitation, he took out a Storage ring from his robe.

After transferring all the items inside it to another Storage ring, he carefully stored the Heavenly Flame into the now-empty one.

After all, if he placed the Heavenly Flame inside with other items, the terrifying temperature of the Green Lotus Core Flame would burn everything to ashes.

”Let’s go. We should head back up.”

Recalling their previous agreement, Lu Man no longer lingered on the thought of the Heavenly Flame. He turned and began floating upward.

”Xiao Ling, let’s go.”

Seeing Lu Man leave, Lin Feng called out, then swiftly followed upward as well.

Deep Within—Tagore Desert

Inside a spacious and luxurious grand hall, a graceful figure leaned slightly against the chair.

Suddenly, a pair of beautiful eyes snapped open, gazing in a specific direction—the location of the Green Lotus Core Flame.

”This scorching and violent aura… Could it be a Heavenly Flame?!”

For a moment, an expression of joy flashed across the woman’s perfect face.

”I never thought, after searching for so many years, it would be right here in my Snake-People Clan’s Tagore Desert.”

As her enchanting voice fell, that seductive figure had already vanished from the spot without a trace.

”Poof~” x2

No one knew how much time had passed, but with two light sounds, Lin Feng and Lu Man shot straight out from the magma.

Pause for a Moment, Then Landing by the Passageway

”Young Master, did you obtain the Heavenly Flame?”

Seeing Lin Feng return, Qing Lin immediately asked.

As she spoke, she hurried forward and circled around Lin Feng, inspecting him closely.

After confirming that he wasn’t injured, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, letting go of the worry that had been gripping her heart.

However, just as she relaxed, she suddenly remembered the overwhelming presence from above.

Her small face instantly turned pale with anxiety as she panicked, ”Young Master, this is bad! Not long ago, I sensed an incredibly powerful aura above ground. Moreover, that person’s bloodline seems somewhat similar to mine… Could they have come to snatch the Heavenly Flame?”

”What?”

Lin Feng and Lu Man were both startled by her words.

Lu Man, however, quickly thought of Bai Ya’s strength and chuckled, ”Don’t worry. With Bai Ya around, there are very few people nearby who can challenge him.”

But Lin Feng, on the other hand, focused on the key detail—a powerful aura with a bloodline similar to Qing Lin’s.

If all these conditions were met… could it be—?

Staring at Qing Lin, Lin Feng continued to ask, ”Compared to Senior Bai Ya, who is stronger?”

”That person is stronger.”

Hearing her answer, Lin Feng’s heart sank.

At the same time, Lu Man’s expression also grew serious.

After a brief silence, Lin Feng spoke again, ”If my guess is correct, that person should be Queen Medusa.”

Lu Man nodded in agreement, indicating that she had also arrived at the same conclusion.

She then turned to Lin Feng and said, ”Kid, you never mentioned there’d be such a big problem like Queen Medusa.”

”I didn’t expect retrieving a Heavenly Flame would draw her attention either.”

Lin Feng gave a bitter smile, explaining helplessly.

The cave fell silent for a moment before Lin Feng asked, ”Senior Lu Man, how much Dou Qi do you have left?”

Lu Man frowned slightly and replied, ”Less than thirty percent.”

Hearing this, Lin Feng had no time to hesitate.

With a flick of his palm, he took out two fourth-tier Qi Recovery Pills from Mo Cheng’s Storage Ring and handed them to Lu Man.

”Senior, take these quickly. Although they won’t restore much Dou Qi, they’re better than nothing.”

”You’re really willing to part with these, huh? Keep them for yourself.”

Seeing Lin Feng take out two fourth-tier pills without hesitation, Lu Man’s impression of him improved significantly.

However, she didn’t accept them. Instead, she took out a fifth-tier pill from her own Storage Ring, her eyes flashing with reluctance before swallowing it.

”Boom!”

At that moment, the cave suddenly shook violently.

Large amounts of sand and rocks fell from the ceiling.

”It looks like the fight has started above! We need to get up there now!”

Sensing the intense battle raging above, Lu Man grew anxious about Bai Ya’s safety and spoke urgently.

If Bai Ya died, she alone wouldn’t be able to handle Queen Medusa, a peak Dou Huang.

Not to mention, she was already low on Dou Qi.

”Alright. Senior, please carry Qing Lin. That will be safer for her.”

As he spoke, Lin Feng quickly put away the pills, patted Qing Lin’s small head, and signaled her to go over.

Lu Man understood his concern.

After all, Lin Feng’s strength was too weak to ensure Qing Lin’s safety.

Without hesitation, she picked up Qing Lin and, in a flash, turned into a streak of shadow, shooting up the passageway.

Lin Feng also activated his Dou Qi, leaped into the passage, and sprinted toward the surface at full speed.
