Chapter 238 - 238: 145: The Opportunity of Li Fire
The last time Su Nan had come to Lotus Flower Street, he had originally intended to hunt down the early stage Xuan-level demons that inhabited the area.
However, not only did the early-stage monsters turn into peak Xuan-level monsters, but a stroke of luck also led him to discover a treasure hidden within Lotus Flower Street.
Unfortunately, the treasure was guarded by the demons which left Su Nan utterly helpless.
But now, with the two Great Demon Kings summoning all Xuan Level Demons to White Water Lake, an opportunity had cropped up.
“I hope that the treasure won’t disappoint me,” Su Nan’s eyes revealed his anticipation.
Not far from Lotus Flower Street and after concealing himself, he silently waited.
Time passed, and only when there were three minutes to game refresh, did Su Nan commence his foresight ability.
If he used the ability at this time, the remaining uses would not be wasted, and he would be able to continue his foresight once the game refreshed.
[Once again, you come to Lotus Flower Street. You know that in the center of this street, beneath a stone millstone, lies a hidden treasure.]
[However, that treasure is being guarded by a Peak Xuan-level monster, preventing you from approaching.]
[Fortunately, you know that the monster will soon leave, so all you have to do is wait patiently.]
[One minute later, you have found a hidden point near the center of Lotus Flower Street where you can view the millstone covering the pit.]
[Two minutes later, Lotus Flower Street is eerily quiet with no outlying presence of any demons.]
[Three minutes later, and still no sign of the demon. You remain, patiently waiting.]
[End of first prediction, would you like to continue?]
“Continue.”
[Time has come to noon, you are aware, the demon will appear soon.]
[Finally, a minute later, the large stone millstone covering the pit in your sight moves, and it’s lifted by a robust arm.]
[This is a middle-aged man-like demon, stockily built, and no obvious signs of being a demon are visible.]
[The middle-aged monster leaves the pit, carefully replaces the millstone, and turns to leave.]
[You dared not be careless and chose not to appear immediately but continue to wait.]
[Two minutes later, with no sign of the monster’s return, you ensure your safety and quickly arrive in front of the millstone. Lifting it, you descend into the pit.]
[As soon as you enter the pit, you immediately feel a noticeable increase in the surrounding temperature. You realize that the treasure must be related to fire.]
[The pit inclines downward, and its end is beyond your sight. You don’t know how far it goes.]
[Quickly descending, you find that the further down you go, the higher the temperature becomes. Three minutes later, after having traveled a full kilometer, you finally reach the end.]
[You observe that the end of the pit opens up into a space about a hundred square meters wide, and it feels as though you’ve stepped into a furnace.]
[At the center of the space, a flame resembling a lotus flower blooms, emanating a scorching heat.]
[End of the second prediction, do you wish to continue?]
“A Lotus-shaped flame?”
“Could it be another special flame similar to the Li Fire Essence?” Su Nan’s eyes glitter with anticipation.
Ever since acquiring the Li Fire Essence, he had shifted the focus of his law-controlling class bloodline fusion to harness the power of fire.
In light of encountering another fire-related treasure, he naturally couldn’t ask for anything better.
“Continue.”
[Beneath Lotus Flower Street lies a flame. You realize that this is the root cause of the fire disaster that happened at Lotus Flower Street.]
[The lotus-shaped flame is extremely high in temperature. You attempt to approach it, but as soon as you do, an abrupt change takes place.]
[The lotus-shaped flame unexpectedly explodes into a plume of fire that quickly rushes towards you.]
[You fail to dodge in time, and the flame begins to consume you, turning you into a human torch in the blink of an eye.]
[In fright, you quickly attempt to quell the flame using the power of water, but your water power is insufficient to make much of a difference.]
[The flame burns, its intense heat piercing through your flesh. Yet what truly horrifies you is that the flame is actually absorbing your bloodline power.]
[With your bloodline power as fuel, the flame burns even brighter. Despite your efforts to control your bloodline power, it’s of no use.]
[You have perished.]
[Just before your death, you realize that the only way to counter this flame is to fight fire with fire.]
“Hiss! This Lotus Flame is incredibly dangerous; it attacks as soon as it senses an approach.”
“It can even use the bloodline power of its prey as fuel. That’s horrifying!”
Su Nan gasps in shock.
Although he had guessed the flame to be extremely dangerous since the monster couldn’t subdue it over a long period, only later when he actually encountered it, did Su Nan realize the full extent of its danger.
The power of the flame exceeded his imagination.
“Treasure! This is a real treasure. If I can harness this Lotus Flame, it would become a potent weapon!”
Following his initial shock, Su Nan excitedly says.
However, it’s clear that if he wants to harness this flame, he faces a monumental challenge.
“Fight fire with fire? How am I supposed to do that?”
Noting the information at the end of the forewarning, Su Nan mutters to himself.
Currently, the two Spirit-level law-controlling class bloodlines he has fused are primarily based on the strength of fire, which is the strongest of the three types of mana he possesses.
However, even so, when compared to the Lotus Flame, they were as different as heaven and earth. There was absolutely no comparison.
“The fire referred to in the prediction is not my Fire Power, but the Li Fire Essence!”
After pondering for a moment, Su Nan understands what it means.
He takes out the Li Fire Essence and looks at the flame encased in the crystal, Su Nan sighs in admiration..
