A Nascent Soul Talisman Treasure? A Dual Lightning Cultivator? I'll Cut Him Down All the Same! Thunder-Attribute Essence Blood Obtained!

In truth, Qiu, the Thunder Cultivator, had guessed correctly.

Lin Chang indeed lacked the strength to unleash a third [Threefold Treasure Flame Pearl]. Or rather, his immense five elements magical power and reserves of flame seeds could barely manage it.

But if he failed to kill his opponent in a single strike, he would be left with depleted magical power, flagging energy, and no flames to use. That would put him in tremendous danger, so it was naturally out of the question!

The [Threefold Treasure Flame Pearl] was immensely powerful, but its consumption was equally immense. Every pearl required large quantities of [dark radiance mystic flame], [Nether abyss iceflame], and [natal pill flame]. Maintaining the balance between the three flames also required precise control, placing a staggering drain on both divine sense and magical power.

Had Lin Chang not switched to the Five Elements Cultivation Method, the Five-Qi Turtle Scripture of Returning to the Origin, throwing out a single pearl would probably have pushed him to his limit.

In fact, two elixirs were already quietly nestled in his stomach, being refined at an accelerated pace as he struggled to replenish his magical power and energy.

Their cool medicinal potency turned into thin, trickling streams, easing and filling the depletion and emptiness within him.

The three flames also required time for their [flame seeds] to accumulate and generate them. They were neither available on demand nor inexhaustible.

Still, faced with the Thunder Cultivator Qiu's probing words, Lin Changheng naturally would not reveal his hand.

Instead, he mixed truth with falsehood and falsehood with truth, throwing up a smokescreen to prevent his opponent from discerning his actual condition.

At his words, the Thunder Cultivator Qiu opened his mouth, intending to say more.

But Lin Chang saw through his intentions at a glance
