Chapter 411: Chapter 218 Red Lotus Fire State_2

Translator: 549690339

The rosy clouds in front of his eyes receded rapidly, and by the time he had regained his senses, he found himself in an unfamiliar area, with the rosy portal behind him disappearing in an instant.

He felt a sensation of aridity at that moment, and as he looked around, all he could see was a vast expanse of red, as if the ground beneath was aflame.

In the fire zone of the Dan God Secret Realm, flames did exist, but most of them were formed by subterranean fires, occasionally causing volcanic eruptions. Some green trees even grew around it.

But the Red Lotus Fire State before him was entirely desolate, without a single green plant in sight, only a few fire-adapted plants thrived here.

Even though the Golden Core in his body had integrated the Fire Element, he still felt uncomfortable on the periphery of the deep Red Lotus Fire territory. The fire of this hazardous area truly differed from the rest.

Lin Yi circulated the fire element within his golden core and found that the consumption rate was rapid, as if these fire elements were being swallowed.

He couldn’t help but recall his master’s information about this Fire Hazard Zone; the Red Lotus Fire State was a holy place for honing fire abilities.

That’s because other flames released here would be devoured by the surrounding Red Lotus fire. However, the flames once swallowed, would become a more concentrated fire element.

After releasing the fire element, if you absorb it in place, you can assimilate the dispersed Red Lotus fire element into your body. As long as the meridians can withstand the attack of the Red Lotus element, the swallowed fire element can be successfully refined, resulting in increased strength.

Of course, the free fire element in the periphery is strictly speaking, just a derivative of Red Lotus fire. The Red Lotus fire even deeper inside is extremely violent and hard to tame. A slight touch can cost you your life, not to mention absorbing it into your body.

The peripheral fire element can only consume limited flames, so some Golden Core Real Persons daringly ventured deeper and unexpectedly lost their lives.

Fire Fierce of the Divine Fire Peak, too, likely fell prey to the allure of the flames, unsatisfied with the refinement speed at the periphery and ventured too deep into the Red Lotus Fire State.

The most significant characteristic of Red Lotus Fire is that it can devour inferior flames to strengthen itself. It is indeed a kind of flame with the potential for infinite evolution.

However, it is unheard of that any cultivator has successfully subdued and controlled the Red Lotus Fire, indicating how extremely challenging it is.

Even though it’s rumored in the Cultivation World that the Red Lotus Fire State continually lures fire cultivators and then tempts them to venture deeper for the sake of cultivation enhancement, a conspiracy indeed seems to exist.

Even so, fire cultivators pay no heed to such rumors. As long as their fire abilities can be enhanced, they are willing to take risks. Everyone thinks they can just cultivate on the periphery and won’t venture deeper.

Lin Yi attempted to use the Water Series Element in his Golden Core to form a protective shield around his body. This time, the consumption was indeed lesser than the fire element, and his discomfort immediately disappeared.

Indeed, the five elements repel each other, with a hundred trials yielding the same result: water overcomes fire. The water element in his body had the power of the Golden Core after all, and naturally, it could resist the peripheral fire elements.

If he ventured deeper, the situation would change entirely. Water’s ability to overcome Fire also depends on the strength of both parties. Red Lotus Fire is not something even the Nascent Soul True Monarch dared to provoke lightly, and being in the Golden Core Realm with an incomplete fusion of the water element, he naturally couldn’t withstand it.

However, his goal this time was not to obtain Red Lotus Fire but to find traces of Fire Feather, which significantly reduced the risk.

Lin Yi, following the location given by the main store of Wan Bao Tower in Tian Yun Xian City, headed deep into the Red Lotus Fire State.

According to the information, the place where Fire Fierce died was a two-day journey from the periphery in this Fire Hazard Zone. It was still not possible to fly on a sword here, or else countless flames would attack.

Once, a cultivator became foolhardy and tried to fly through the air on his sword. However, soon, his entire body was ablaze, and no amount of water spells could extinguish the fire. Eventually, he was burned to ashes, and the flying sword under his feet lost its spiritual light because of the flame’s corrosion.

Besides the fire-adapted plants, some Monster Beasts that lived off fire also inhabited this place. Influenced by the violent aura of Red Lotus fire, these creatures were extremely aggressive and would swarm and attack even if you just passed by nearby.

The deeper he went, the faster the water protective shield was consumed. Moreover, that scorching sensation deep in his heart resurfaced again, as if the shield had entirely lost effect.

The sense of heat was growing stronger and stronger, to the point where it could affect one’s clarity of mind.

At this moment, Lin Yi understood why Fire Fierce ventured deep into the Red Lotus Fire State. Fire attribute cultivators were typically affected by their attributes, causing them to have volatile tempers. Add to this the influence of the Red Lotus Fire, their inner clarity was gradually lost. What remained was the desire to enhance their strength, taking them deeper and deeper into the state.

What could be cultivated in the Red Lotus Fire State was not only fire but also the state of mind.

Seeing that the protection of the water series was becoming less and less effective, Lin Yi simply retreated from it, maintaining the clarity of his spiritual platform, and pushed the Concealing Breath Technique to its limit. This way, he wouldn’t be discovered by the surrounding monsters because of the water series protection.

The reason this place was called a danger zone was that, aside from the Red Lotus Fire, there were also monster beasts living in this risky territory. They were extremely aggressive, and the deeper one ventured, the stronger they became.

While on his journey, he also encountered some fire-attribute cultivators, most at the Foundation Building Late Stage, and even one in the Golden Core realm. Some were cultivating, some were killing fire-attribute monster beasts. Alarmingly, some showed signs of being possessed by their killings.

Lin Yi went around to avoid these cultivators from afar. After achieving the Golden Core, the strength he could exhibit reached an early Nascent Soul stage, and his perception ability was much stronger than an ordinary Golden Core real person.

Two days later, he successfully reached the location given by Wan Bao Tower. At the same time, he had ventured deep into the Red Lotus Fire State. If he continued for a few more days, he could reach the deepest parts.

Lin Yi hid nearby and glanced around. In front of him was a lake full of lava, with red flames constantly erupting from it. It looked dangerous.

At this point, he felt a restlessness in his heart and even had the urge to take a bath in the lava to wash away this heat sensation.

This so-called Red Lotus Fire seemed to affect one’s consciousness.

Lin Yi used the water elements in his Golden Core and circulated them within his body for a full day, restoring his clear state of mind.

Then, he took out a Paper Man from his Storage Bag. After inputting spiritual power, the Paper Man rapidly inflated, turning into a fair-skinned man as real as a human being.

This was the Paper Man he got from the Flower Thief. After some refining, he was now fully in control of it.

The fall of Fire Fierce here indicated dangers, so he naturally wouldn’t risk himself. It would be a waste not to use available resources.

After instilling his divine sense into the Paper Man, another scene appeared in Lin Yi’s mind: it was what the Paper Man was seeing.

He controlled the Paper Man to approach the lava lake in front of him. Everything around him seemed calm, and no monster beasts appeared.

This scenario put Lin Yi on high alert. An abnormal situation usually meant trouble, and the serenity around him indicated a major hidden danger here.

Lin Yi controlled the Paper Man to slowly approach the lake’s edge, but he didn’t find anything left by Fire Fierce. There were no traces of remains from its fall.

So, Fire Fierce didn’t die slowly. Instead, it was due to a sudden attack, leaving virtually nothing behind.

The only possible source of danger was therefore the lake.

The closer he got to the water, the stronger the burning sensation. Though he was inside the Paper Man using his divine sense, this place was tempting him to take a bath in the lake.

This showed the extent of the deep hazardous area’s impact on one’s consciousness.

Right at that moment, a creature from the lake seemed to lose its patience. It suddenly jumped out of the water and swallowed the Paper Man whole.
