Vermilion Bird Trial
After entering the Bronze Gate.
As the darkness dissipated, what came into Lin Langtian's view was an enormous gate.
The giant gate was crimson in color, but it was not closed; instead, it appeared to be open.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
As Lin Langtian watched, crimson light suddenly condensed on the giant gate, and ancient characters seemed to emerge faintly, carrying a strong sense of weight and a captivating charm.
"The Four Symbols Profound Sect, Vermilion Bird Palace!"
Lin Langtian stared at the ancient characters and read them aloud softly.
"Oh, it's the Vermilion Bird Palace?" Upon seeing this, Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow.
As far as he knew, the Four Symbols Profound Sect were Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise, and the most valuable of them was naturally the Azure Dragon Palace, which contained the legacy of the Qing Zhi.
As a supreme expert of the Dragon Race in the Reincarnation Stage, Qing Zhi's legacy is extremely precious, not only in the Eastern Xuan Region, but even throughout the entire continent.
In the original timeline, Lin Dong passed the trials of the Azure Dragon Palace and obtained the Qing Zhi's inheritance. He not only learned the "Azure Dragon Transformation Art" but also laid the foundation for a deep bond with the Dragon Race.
Of course, all of this was due to Lin Dong's good fortune. Although Lin Langtian was somewhat envious, he did not insist on it.
Since the other three Mysterious Sect can be ranked alongside the Azure Dragon Palace, they are probably not much worse.
Moreover, what suits you best is the most important thing. Lin Langtian and Spirit Aunt Bloodline Link, so he is practically her disciple.
As a Nine Nether Sparrow, Spirit Aunt is also somewhat related to the Vermilion Bird.
In that sense, this must be why he chose the Vermilion Bird Palace in the grand scheme of things.
As Lin Langtian pondered, crimson light flashed on the giant gate, and ancient characters reappeared.
"The Vermilion Bird Trial is a perilous journey with a slim chance of survival. Enter at your own risk!"
The words "Beware of entering" seem to emanate a faint, blood-red light, giving off an extremely fierce feeling. Anyone who sees such characters would probably feel a chill run down their spine.
Lin Langtian looked at these ancient characters, frowned slightly, and then shook his head.
Since we're already here, of course we can't let him give up.
Having made up his mind, Lin Langtian did not hesitate any longer and stepped into the giant gate. Behind him, Demon Shadow and Jin Wu followed closely.
As he stepped through the giant gate, the expected darkness did not appear. Lin Langtian's vision only flashed for a moment, and then he felt the surrounding world suddenly change!
Bang!
A deafening roar suddenly rang in Lin Langtian's ears, a flame swept past, and crimson light shone on Lin Langtian's body.
The next moment, what was reflected in Lin Langtian's pupils was an endless ocean of flames.
The fiery red magma flowed slowly in the sea of fire, with huge bubbles occasionally rising from it. After a moment, with a soft sound, it burst open with a bang, and the scorching magma shot out like a brilliant firework.
"Is this trial meant for me to pass through this sea of fire?"
Looking at the fiery red ocean before him, the intense heat around him made Lin Langtian sweat profusely. Seeing this, he quickly put the Demon Shadow and the Jin Wu into the Mirror Inner World, and then muttered in a deep voice with a solemn expression.
Lin Langtian sensed a violent power emanating from the flames. Even for him, crossing this sea of fire would not be easy.
"Langtian, go in and take a look. I can sense the inheritance of the Vermilion Bird Palace, which may be of great benefit to you," Spirit Aunt said.
Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian was taken aback, then nodded. "That's right!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Langtian touched the red stone with his toes and shot out like a willow catkin.
Taiqing Roaming Heaven Steps, Traversing the Void!
Lin Langtian unleashed his ethereal movement technique, flying above the sea of fire as if he were a chain Traversing the Void the sky, while his Yuan energy completely enveloped his body.
Within the sea of fire, the temperature was terrifyingly high. Even though Lin Langtian's attribute was fire and he was protected by the Nine Lin Langtian Nine Nether Origin Energy, the intense heat from the faint mist exhaled by the bubbles in the sea of fire was still unbearable for him.
Laugh!
However, just as Lin Langtian rushed out of the area of the red stone by several dozen feet, a wave of flames suddenly surged up from the sea of fire, catching everyone off guard and hitting Lin Langtian.
Hiss!
The waves of flames crashed against Lin Langtian's body, but did not sink him. Instead, the flames surged forth, and instantly, excruciating pain erupted from his body, a sensation akin to falling into a boiling pot of oil.
The intense pain quickly brought Lin Langtian back to his senses. He immediately activated the Flame Furnace, and flames surged beneath his skin. In the blink of an eye, his entire body was enveloped in flames, clearly indicating that he had activated the Black Flame Hegemon Body.
Squeak!
As the Black Flame Hegemon Body was activated, the intense pain subsided considerably. However, Lin Langtian could still feel a surge of violent energy flowing into his body through his skin. Wherever that power passed, even his meridians felt numb, as if he were being electrocuted.
"Laugh!"
Lin Langtian had a patch of hair burned off, and his once handsome face had turned somewhat black.
"Damn it, I was careless!"
Lin Langtian cursed under his breath. He hadn't expected that this seemingly calm sea of fire could unleash such terrifying waves of flame.
The violent power within the sea of fire relentlessly eroded his body, and only by constantly activating his Black Flame Hegemon Body could he barely resist it.
Thinking of this, Lin Langtian sighed at the difficulty of the trial. If it were an ordinary Three Yuan Nirvana Stage expert, he would probably perish in this sea of fire.
"Again!"
Lin Langtian gave a cold shout, and then his mind stirred. The Flame Furnace was turned on at full power, and wisps of fire emerged from under his skin and then gathered on the surface of his body. The firelight dispersed and resisted the onslaught of the flame waves.
However, although this resistance was somewhat torturous, it was not without its benefits for Lin Langtian. After being eroded by the flame energy, he could feel that the strength of his physical body had increased significantly.
Moreover, the Flame Furnace within Lin Langtian's Dantian was also unknowingly absorbing the flame energy that had invaded his body, thus strengthening itself.
"Bang!"
Another wave of flames slammed into Lin Langtian, but he gritted his teeth and continued flying forward.
hiss...
The violent fiery energy struck his body, and even with the protection of the Black Flame Hegemon Body, he still felt as if he were in a boiling oil pot. After flying only a few hundred feet, cold sweat had already seeped out of Lin Langtian's forehead.
The stinging pain spread throughout his body, but Lin Langtian's expression grew even more resolute.
Amidst the terrifying sea of fire, a figure, protected by the faint flames, gradually faded into the distance...
