Chapter 1935 - 1917: Auntie Qianqian
"You are not human!"
Lin Feng looked at the beautiful lady in front of him and asked. He had already felt a very special aura from her, an aura he had once sensed from Miss An’an. For a moment, Lin Feng was stunned, never expecting such a result.
"Of course I’m not human. Why did you, little fellow, come here causing trouble? You almost tore my house down. I originally thought of ignoring you and letting you fend for yourself, but you forced me to show up." The beautiful lady said, looking at Lin Feng with anger, clearly upset, her voice icy.
"I’m sorry, I didn’t know it was you." Lin Feng was also very embarrassed at this time, not knowing what to say. He had thought it was a human, but suddenly, a demon beast of unknown origin appeared. Who wouldn’t be taken aback? Especially since Lin Feng felt the same aura as Miss An’an, he definitely couldn’t be a match for her.
"Me? What about me?" The beautiful lady was stunned to hear Fang Yan’s words, and then asked, "Do you know me?"
"I don’t know you, but I know a young lady named An’an. She has the same aura as you..." Lin Feng didn’t hide anything and immediately explained.
"An’an? The same aura as me?" The beautiful lady was even more stunned. She found it hard to believe Lin Feng’s words. Someone with the same aura? Could it be someone from her clan?
Lin Feng, seeing the beautiful lady’s confusion, suddenly remembered something. This beautiful lady had been here for who knows how many years, while Miss An’an was still in that Secret Realm. They could very well be from the same clan but might not know each other. Thinking of this, Lin Feng immediately took out the Phoenix Tree Core from his Space Ring and threw it toward the beautiful lady, then said to her, "This is the Phoenix Tree Core that Miss An’an gave me. You should be able to sense Miss An’an’s aura from it."
But Lin Feng didn’t expect that when he took out the Phoenix Tree Core, the beautiful lady was instantly stunned, her eyes welling up with tears. She murmured, "This... this is my kin. I can feel her aura from it, and she is even very closely related to me. Where did you meet her?"
"I met her in another Secret Realm." Lin Feng, sensing the emotional fluctuation of the beautiful lady, quickly explained, then placed the Phoenix Tree Core in her hand.
The beautiful lady held the Phoenix Tree Core, playing with it seriously, all the while starting to cry, leaving Lin Feng at a loss. Facing such a stunning beauty in tears, he didn’t know how to comfort her. Just when Lin Feng was standing there, not knowing what to do, the beautiful lady suddenly reached out and grabbed Lin Feng. In his terrified gaze, she tore open a Space Passage and pulled him in.
After the two passed through the space gate, Lin Feng was instantly amazed by the scene before him. The place they appeared in was vastly different from the dark cave from before. This space wasn’t very large, about just over ten miles in diameter, with only a tall tree in the center that was several tens of feet high. This tree was very peculiar; its green leaves were burning with powerful flames, yet the leaves were unharmed. Such a phenomenon was incredibly bizarre!
Seeing this situation, Lin Feng was dumbfounded. He was now almost certain that this beautiful lady was undoubtedly from the same clan as Miss An’an. If nothing unexpected, she was a demon beast that had survived from the Ancient Era. Such a demon beast was beyond human description, and he truly hadn’t expected to encounter such a high-level demon beast here.
"Human, is An’an doing well? I never thought I would receive news of my kin again." The beautiful lady looked at Lin Feng, finally coming back to her senses, and smiled as she asked Lin Feng. She hadn’t been out for countless years, and anyone coming in from the outside was doomed to die, so she couldn’t receive any other news. Lin Feng was the only person who had come in alive and brought news of her kin, which made her very happy.
"Miss An’an seems well, but she also seems trapped in a place she can’t leave. I’ve seen her twice." Lin Feng immediately replied. The pressure was immense, being in the presence of such a demon beast. Although Lin Feng’s current strength wasn’t bad, he knew that in front of such a demon beast, he might not even withstand one move.
"That’s good, that’s good!" Hearing Lin Feng say this, the beautiful lady beamed with joy, sizing up Lin Feng. As she did, she was instantly stunned and, astonished, said, "Oh? You’re human, yet you can withstand the tempering of the Fire of Heart Flame?"
This truly surprised the beautiful lady. The Fire of Heart Flame was a kind of their clan’s Innate True Fire, and generally, it wasn’t granted to humans because humans couldn’t endure it. Even for demon beasts, it required at least a strong demon beast to barely withstand it. The most crucial point was that this Innate True Fire took a thousand years to nurture just one wisp. To grant it to Fang Yan this way was indeed shocking!
"I was fortunate to receive the gracious gift of the Fire of Heart Flame from Miss An’an and barely survived." Hearing that the beautiful lady had noticed he had undergone body refinement with the Fire of Heart Flame, Lin Feng chuckled wryly and replied. It was truly dangerous back then; if it were anyone else, they likely wouldn’t have survived.
But after answering, Lin Feng looked at the beautiful lady and felt that she was very kind, daring to ask, "Senior, if I may be so bold, can I ask which clan of demon beasts you and Miss An’an belong to?"
Hearing Lin Feng ask this, the beautiful lady smiled and told Lin Feng with a smile, "Considering you came alive to see me, I can tell you that An’an and I belong to the Flame Phoenix Clan, a branch of the Ancient Divine Beasts Phoenix Clan. The only difference between An’an and me is that her Innate True Fire is the Fire of Heart Flame, while mine is the Burning-Flame Fire."
Then she looked at Lin Feng, her face breaking into a smile again, and said to Lin Feng, "Since you call her Miss An’an, why don’t you call me Auntie Qianqian, alright, young man?"
Upon hearing the beautiful lady’s earlier words, Lin Feng finally understood Miss An’an’s race; they were a branch of the Phoenix Clan. No wonder the fiery aura of Miss An’an and the beautiful lady in front of him was terrifying beyond words. They were the top existence among fire-type demon beasts.
But when Lin Feng heard the beautiful lady’s latter words, he was stunned, never expecting the beautiful lady to ask him to call her Auntie. This was something he absolutely hadn’t anticipated. But then he thought: Since he already called Miss An’an, calling this beautiful lady Auntie wasn’t a loss; everything was normal. Moreover, the beautiful lady’s power was surely more terrifying than Miss An’an’s. It’s just a term of address, after all.
"Hello, Auntie Qianqian!" Lin Feng respectfully saluted the beautiful lady, and after saluting, Lin Feng smiled and said, as he seemed to have understood the beautiful lady’s intention.
"Good, good! Young man, calling me Auntie is no loss to you. Since An’an granted you the Fire of Heart Flame, I can’t be stingy and will grant you a Burning-Flame Fire. Do you agree or not? However, let me tell you in advance, my Burning-Flame Fire is not ordinary. It is far beyond that little girl An’an’s Fire of Heart Flame. Even though you have withstood the Fire of Heart Flame, you may not withstand my Burning-Flame Fire. If you’re not careful, you may end up obliterated!"
The beautiful lady looked at Lin Feng and said with a smile, though her tone was full of solemnity. She hoped Lin Feng would see the danger in it before deciding. She didn’t want to see Lin Feng obliterated, especially when she was waiting for Lin Feng to contact An’an after leaving.
Hearing this from the beautiful lady, Lin Feng was suddenly shocked. Since the beautiful lady said this, it meant that the Burning-Flame Fire was definitely extraordinary. If he could attain body refinement through the Burning-Flame Fire, his body would undoubtedly become even more powerful, only that he needed to face the danger involved.
He had already endured the Fire of Heart Flame; what couldn’t he endure now? But he wasn’t a reckless person; he carefully checked his Space Ring and found that there were still many Elixirs and Spiritual Medicines. With a quick idea, he had a thought.
"Auntie Qianqian, let me conduct alchemy first. After I’m done alchemy, I’ll accept the Burning-Flame Fire. How about it?" Lin Feng asked the beautiful lady with a smile.
"I didn’t expect you to know alchemy. Fine, take any amount of time, it doesn’t matter." After the beautiful lady heard this from Lin Feng, she was even more intrigued by him, never expecting Lin Feng to be an Alchemist. Time had no real concept for her, so if Lin Feng wanted to conduct alchemy, he could.
Upon hearing the beautiful lady agree, Lin Feng bowed and saluted her, then took out the Open Mountain Tripod and started the alchemy in front of the beautiful lady. The Elixir he planned to refine this time was no ordinary thing. It was a Heavenly Grade Elixir known as the Revival Pill of Myriad Life. The alchemy prescriptions were obtained by Fang Yan from Emperor Hong Bing’s cave, one could say, judging by its effect on restoring the body, the Revival Pill of Myriad Life could be called a Divine Grade Elixir.
Thankfully, Lin Feng was relatively lazy, and his Space Ring was quite large, so he collected all the various Spiritual Medicines he found. Otherwise, even with the alchemy prescriptions and Pill Furnace, he couldn’t produce anything. But now, it was no problem. Everything was ready except for a favorable wind, as ample reserves of over a hundred kinds of Spiritual Medicines were brought out and piled like a hill around him.
Slowly closing his eyes, with a sudden surge, a faint golden flame ignited on Lin Feng’s body. This flame was spawned after enduring the tempering of the Fire of Heart Flame. Although it couldn’t match the Heaven and Earth Strange Fire obtained by Fang Yan, it was much more potent than a regular Alchemy Fire, having reached the pinnacle of ordinary Alchemy Fire.
Following this, the Seven-Colored Gang Qi condensed into a Gang Qi Arm, constantly feeding various materials into the Open Mountain Tripod...
This flame?
Lin Feng entered a state of concentration, fully devoted to alchemy. But at one side, the beautiful lady’s eyes lit up as she observed Lin Feng’s Alchemy Fire. She hadn’t expected that Lin Feng had already reached such an extent with his Alchemy Fire. Along with the hundred kinds of rare Spiritual Medicines that Lin Feng took out, her eyebrows twitched slightly. She could be sure of one thing: what Lin Feng was crafting was no ordinary elixir. Now she genuinely anticipated quite eagerly what kind of elixir Lin Feng would manage to refine.
