Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

”It’s a bit early to talk about this now. Let’s discuss breakthroughs later. Currently, whether we can obtain the Li-Fire Crystal is a problem, and one should not get too happy too soon; often, things don’t go as planned,” said Chu Linfeng.

”Haha, Lin Feng has grown up and knows how to lecture his sister now. But this time, it was a thrilling and dangerous gamble, and it paid off,” Sword Spirit laughed.

After a while, when the Earth Fire Charm still hadn’t returned, Chu Linfeng said gloomily, ”This guy hasn’t come back for ages. Did he discover something and is deliberately standing me up?”

”What does standing up mean? I’ve never heard of this term before, but I believe he will definitely return. The Earth Fire Charm’s intelligence is like that of a child; once it sets its mind on something, it will work hard to accomplish it. Just wait,” Sword Spirit said.

Upon hearing Sword Spirit’s words, Chu Linfeng laughed, ”Sister Yue’Er, you don’t even know what standing someone up means. Naturally, standing someone up means releasing a pigeon outside and it doesn’t fly back. Just like the Earth Fire Charm leaving and not returning.”

Just as Sword Spirit was about to say something, a sudden surge of Earth Fire erupted not far from Chu Linfeng, filling the narrow space with scorching heat once again, forcing Chu Linfeng to activate his Chaotic Dragon Power to resist the heat wave.

Chu Linfeng knew that the Earth Fire Charm had returned, and he thought Sword Spirit’s words were very accurate. The idea that he might soon obtain the Li-Fire Crystal made his heart race with excitement. Soon, the Earth Fire Charm emerged from the Earth Fire, laughed upon seeing Chu Linfeng, and said, ”Kid, this king has put in a great deal of effort to acquire this Li-Fire Crystal. I haven’t been out for years, and didn’t expect that after hundreds of thousands of years, only three Li-Fire Crystals have appeared. I’ve brought you two. That’s fair enough, right?”

”The king is truly generous. Lin Feng thanks the king! It’s incredibly lucky to receive the Li-Fire Crystal personally delivered by the king!” Chu Linfeng immediately said respectfully, but inwardly he chuckled. It was so easy to deceive him; such a fool calling himself a king, grossly.

”Good that you understand. You’ve given this king such a noble item, and this king naturally should give you something fitting,” the Earth Fire Charm said. In the blink of an eye, two fiery red Crystal Stones appeared before Chu Linfeng.

The Crystal Stones were somewhat transparent, resembling Fire Crystals, but the temperature radiating from them made Chu Linfeng nearly unable to bear it. He hurriedly willed them into his Storage Ring.

”Lin Feng, your luck is really good. These two Li-Fire Crystals are extremely rare. To find such large Li-Fire Crystals in the Netherworld is unexpected. Generally, Li-Fire Crystals are only the size of eggs, but the two given by the Earth Fire Charm are larger than goose eggs.

By merely absorbing the energy of one Li-Fire Crystal, you’ll be able to elevate Fire Transformation to the Second Layer. The remaining one can be auctioned in the Immortal Realm, and such a large Li-Fire Crystal should be worth at least five hundred Middle-Grade Immortal Stones,” Sword Spirit said at this point.

”So valuable? I really have to thank him. I was just regretting giving him a Top-grade Star Stone, but now it seems it was worth every bit. However, it’s time to leave; this ghostly place is truly not suitable for habitation,” Chu Linfeng said.

The Earth Fire Charm was somewhat surprised to see Chu Linfeng accept the two Li-Fire Crystals immediately, knowing that the temperature emitted from them is much higher than that of the Earth Fire. It seemed Chu Linfeng had a deep understanding of the Fire Element and wasn’t lying about it.

”King, the outside world is quite beautiful. Have you ever ventured out to see it? Surely you haven’t stayed in this dull place forever; perhaps you’d come out with me and take a look?” Chu Linfeng said with a smile, as he was contemplating a way to leave.

He didn’t dare to openly declare departure, for if the guy became angry, everything he had done would be for naught. He knew that the Earth Fire Charm had never left this place, so he goaded him a bit.

All powerful beings value their reputation, and although the Earth Fire Charm’s intelligence is ordinary, his sense of honor is quite important. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have given the Li-Fire Crystals to Chu Linfeng, and Chu Linfeng had precisely counted on this when he spoke.

”This king has certainly ventured outside, and quite often too. But I don’t have many friends out there, so still, I find this place more comfortable. Are you suggesting this king should accompany you to see the outside?” the Earth Fire Charm inquired.

”It seems nothing can escape the king’s notice. In here, it feels like years pass like days for me. Only powerful beings like the king could linger in such an environment; Lin Feng can only leave. But leaving feels somewhat unfair to the king for gifting me the Li-Fire Crystal, so I hope the king could accompany me outside for a look,” Chu Linfeng said.

”I forget about that problem; you, being human, naturally can’t stay here long. This king has some matters to attend to, and after handling them, I’ll come find you. How about that?” the Earth Fire Charm suggested.

Chu Linfeng was instantly delighted upon hearing this, but he feigned a very helpless expression, saying, ”The king treats Lin Feng with such kindness that I’m deeply grateful. In the future, if the king needs anything, don’t hesitate to find me. For now, I’m training in a tower countless miles away from here. If you miss me, you can come find me there.”

”Alright, this king knows, and will certainly come to see you then! Now you may leave; this king has other matters and won’t keep you,” the Earth Fire Charm said.

”Lin Feng takes his leave now, Great King must come!” Chu Linfeng said, then began to move upwards. He felt ashamed for speaking these insincere words, wishing he had the strength to avoid such pretense.

Before long, Chu Linfeng reached the yellow sand, exhaled deeply and said, ”Finally out, staying in there was suffocating me. Luckily, I obtained the Li-Fire Crystal, making all the hardship worth it.”

At this moment, Li Feng above the yellow sand had disappeared without a trace. After determining the direction, Chu Linfeng continued to swiftly advance using Shift Form and Shadow. He felt completely refreshed, the heat on his body vanished.

After about a day, Chu Linfeng observed changes in his surroundings. Many areas had soil layers, signaling the end of the yellow sand region, meaning the Tower of Death was not far.

Immediately, Chu Linfeng let Chu Qing and Chu Tong out from the Storage Ring, looked at them and asked, ”Did you really not get hurt this time? Didn’t expect the Earth Fire Charm’s attack power to be so strong, it can even break your Energy Barrier, terrifying indeed.”

”Big Brother, under normal circumstances, even ten Earth Fire Charms couldn’t break our Energy Barrier. The temperature of Earth Fire there was too high, requiring us to use a large portion of our energy for resistance, naturally leaving less to withstand the Charm’s attack power. Luckily, we managed to resist it, or you would have been in trouble.” Chu Qing replied.

”Qing’er, see how far we are from the three towers, are we almost there?” Chu Linfeng asked.

Soon, Chu Qing replied, ”There are still several thousand miles to go. At Big Brother’s current speed, you should arrive in about half a day!”

”Good, then you continue entering the Storage Ring, when we arrive, Big Brother will let you out.” Chu Linfeng said, then the two entered the Storage Ring again, and Chu Linfeng continued to use his Wind Transformation and Shift Form and Shadow, leaving a trail of residue as he sped far away.

Chu Linfeng was rushing through the dust and sand, while in Lisha City, Princess Yiyi and Lin Ruoxi were with a furious expression, venting in Chu Linfeng’s room.

”That damn Lin Feng, cheeky Lin Feng, left without telling us! What does he take us for, it’s so infuriating.” Princess Yiyi lamented.

”Lin Feng did go too far this time; even if the Death Tower Land is dangerous, he should have discussed with us first. Disappearing silently like this makes us even more worried!” Kong Feifei added.

”Stop blaming him, he’s gone already, just wait for his safe return. No wonder he refused our offer to stay with him in his room; he had planned this all along, otherwise, with his personality, he would not have been able to stand it. We didn’t notice this at the time due to our carelessness.” Lin Ruoxi said.

”When he comes back, we’ll make sure to teach him a lesson, or else why would he act so recklessly!” Princess Yiyi declared...

Meanwhile, Chu Linfeng couldn’t resist sneezing, ”No way, those three girls are already bad-mouthing me behind my back? That’s just unfair!”

Half a day later, Chu Linfeng finally saw the three towers Zhang Lijuan mentioned. Indeed, this place was like a paradise, with lush vegetation contrasting sharply with the harsh environment upon entering.

Shortly after, Chu Linfeng arrived more than a mile from the first tower; he paused without proceeding directly because he saw a white-haired elder meditating in a grassy area. This person gave Chu Linfeng an unfathomable feeling, at least beyond his ability to assess.

Respecting the elder’s practice, Chu Linfeng naturally didn’t want to disturb him, so he carefully bypassed him to observe the first tower. Unexpectedly, the elder suddenly spoke, ”Boy, stop, not everyone can approach the Tower of Death.”

Chu Linfeng was slightly puzzled, Zhang Lijuan hadn’t mentioned this. She told him there were many powerful practitioners inside the Tower of Death, practicing the Martial Skills for the first three layers, preparing to enter the Fourth Layer. Yet, the elder was blocking him, why?

”Why can’t I approach, would Senior care to enlighten?” Chu Linfeng asked courteously, not being the timid type. Dealing with the Earth Fire Charm’s pretense was unavoidable, but here with Chu Qing and Chu Tong, he believed no harm would come to him.

The elder’s figure flickered and appeared before Chu Linfeng, his speed was comparable to Chu Linfeng’s Shift Form and Shadow. After glancing at Chu Linfeng, he said, ”Are you just arriving at the Death Tower Land?”
