Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 1053: Chapter 1052: Fire Python

The energy of this Earth Heart Fire Lotus is extremely violent. Even if an ordinary person spends three to five years refining it, they may not be able to successfully refine it. However, Ling Chen dares to directly refine the Earth Heart Fire Lotus right in front of them?

”He’s seeking death!”

A strongman from the Azure Dragon Family, wearing blue armor, coldly laughed.

This Earth Heart Fire Lotus is nurtured by the unique environment here. The energy contained within it is exceptionally overbearing, even he, a Half-Saint, wouldn’t dare to push too hard. But Ling Chen actually refines it with such a domineering style, in his view, this is no different from playing with fire.

”Perhaps not!”

Murong Qingcheng’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. In her line of sight, the Earth Heart Fire Lotus in Ling Chen’s hand was visibly shrinking. The energy contained within, obviously, was being absorbed into Ling Chen’s body at an astonishing speed.

Crack!

The energy was completely refined by Ling Chen. The Earth Heart Fire Lotus suddenly showed a crack, and the next moment, it dispersed rapidly into ashes.

”You...you actually directly refined the Earth Heart Fire Lotus?!”

Murong Qingcheng looked at this scene, a look of shock flashed across her stunningly beautiful face. She had initially been watching Ling Chen’s reckless move with indifference, but she hadn’t expected that in just a few minutes, Ling Chen had completely refined the Earth Heart Fire Lotus...

”Haha, it seems this Earth Heart Fire Lotus is fated to be with me.” Ling Chen smiled at Murong Qingcheng, speaking with a slightly teasing tone. Right now, if Murong Qingcheng wanted the Earth Heart Fire Lotus, she could only swallow him whole.

Anger also flashed in Murong Qingcheng’s beautiful eyes. She hadn’t expected Ling Chen to successfully refine that Earth Heart Fire Lotus. However, being a renowned Heavenly Woman, she had remarkable control and quickly calmed her mind, saying quietly, ”It seems Brother Chen Ling is indeed capable, managing to refine this Earth Heart Fire Lotus in such a short time. I admire you.”

”Qingcheng, are you just going to let this guy take advantage of the situation?”

Behind Murong Qingcheng, a blue-armored strongman from the Azure Dragon Family stepped forward, speaking with some unwillingness.

”It’s impossible to get the Earth Heart Fire Lotus now, it’s better to go with the flow and give him a favor.”

Murong Qingcheng’s beautiful eyes flashed with light, ”Chen Ling is definitely not an ordinary person, there’s no need to become mortal enemies over such a small matter.”

”Hmph, lucky him.”

The strongman from before snorted coldly. Though he was unwilling, the team of the Azure Dragon Family was ultimately led by Murong Qingcheng. Since she had decided not to tangle with Ling Chen anymore, he could only comply.

”Then I must sincerely thank Lady Murong’s generosity.”

Ling Chen knew that the other party was helpless, but Murong Qingcheng did not persist in entanglement, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. After all, if the Azure Dragon Family insisted on not letting him go, it would be a nightmare.

”Mountains don’t turn, but rivers do, I shall take my leave.”

Having benefited, Ling Chen also cupped his hands towards Murong Qingcheng, intending to leave this place.

Buzz!

However, just as he was preparing to retreat, the Lava Lake that had just calmed down suddenly stirred whirlpools. Then, a very dazzling light suddenly spread out from the whirlpools.

”Hmm?”

Ling Chen stopped in his tracks, startled. The fluctuations emanating from the whirlpool were much larger than those from the Earth Heart Fire Lotus earlier. The object emerging was likely extraordinary.

From within the whirlpools, a splendid red light slowly rose. In the line of sight, what appeared was not a fire lotus but a tree seemingly forged from lava, standing five meters high. The trunk of the tree was bright red, like red-hot iron. The lush leaves were densely packed, and lava continually dripped from them, falling back into the lava lake.

Ling Chen’s gaze did not linger on the Lava Tree for long. Instead, it quickly focused on the fruits clustered among its branches and leaves.

The whole tree hung with about a dozen fruits, each shaped like a baby, exuding extremely pure energy fluctuations.

”Is this... the Fire Infant Fruit Tree?”

Ling Chen’s eyes shrank, suddenly filled with intense shock. The Fire Infant Fruit Tree is a legendary, extinct ancient species. The Fire Infant Fruits that condense on it are incredibly rare, not inferior to the thousand-year matured Earth Heart Fire Lotus, and even stronger. Not to mention, this tree bore more than a dozen Fire Infant Fruits.

The moment the Fire Infant Fruit Tree appeared, an extremely magnificent heat wave also transformed into a pillar of light, shooting to the sky, stirring a fiery storm within a hundred-mile radius.

”Haha, it’s actually the Fire Infant Fruit, such an ancient wonder. We’ve had great luck this time!”

”We’ve stumbled into a treasure trove, and there’s such a quantity of Fire Infant Fruits here while they’ve been lost for ages.”

”Indeed, if we can grab a few, this journey would be worthwhile!”

Around the Lava Lake, many strongmen had already seen the Fire Infant Fruit Tree appear, their eyes burning with ultimate fervor as they stared at the fiery red tree, unable to hide their greed and longing.

Noisy discussions spread among those various strongmen, then soon enough, someone couldn’t resist their greed any longer and dashed out, directly towards the Fire Infant Fruit Tree!

”A bunch of mice, also trying to get their hands on the Fire Infant Fruits?!”

Seeing the crowd rushing towards the Fire Infant Fruit Tree, a strongman behind Murong Qingcheng, dressed in blue armor, coldly laughed. However, just as he was about to attack, he was stopped by a jade hand.

”Don’t be in a rush to attack yet.”

Murong Qingcheng’s beautiful eyes were full of indifference.

”Why is that?”

The strongman was somewhat puzzled. Earlier, the opponent had him give up dealing with Ling Chen, making him somewhat dissatisfied. Now, why shouldn’t he act swiftly? But the next moment, his expression suddenly changed because as many strongmen closed in on the Fire Infant Fruit Tree, the Lava Lake began to surge violently. An astonishing giant wave rose, and beneath that wave, a gigantic figure broke through, a massive red tail viciously swept among those close to the Fire Infant Fruit Tree, knocking everyone back, blood-tumbling, with screams echoing continually, ”Plop, plop,” most who approached the Fire Infant Fruit Tree failed to react and fell into the Lava Lake, consumed by the scorching waters.
