Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 587 - 379: Thunderfire

Upon hearing about Thunder Fire, Xu Pingzhi’s smile disappeared.

In fact, Thunder City having Thunder Fire is documented.

However, people have only seen it in records, and they know nothing about the function, abilities, etc., of Thunder Fire.

Some have even begun to question the authenticity of Thunder Fire.

Lin Chen understood this clearly and said, "If City Lord Xu has difficulties, you don’t need to trouble yourself."

Xu Pingzhi glanced at Lin Chen, pondered for a moment, and finally spoke:

"You ask about this Thunder Fire because..."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "As you can see, my Divine Fox has a Fire Attribute, and its Heart-Burning Fire Control, with the blessing of an Anomalous Fire, would have better synergy."

Here, Lin Chen told a lie.

Not that he wanted to, but because the power of the Fire Spirit was too overwhelming, and if this got out, it might attract animosity.

Xu Pingzhi pondered for quite some time before finally saying, "Young Lin has helped Thunder City before, and I, Xu, certainly will not forget it."

"Thunder City does indeed have Thunder Fire." Xu Pingzhi nodded and said, "However, instead of calling it Thunder Fire, it might be better to call it the Thunder Core."

"Thunder Core?" Lin Chen was puzzled.

"It’s said that when the first person arrived at Thunder City, a huge blue ball of light was buried underground, which was the legendary Thunder Fire," Xu Pingzhi explained. "Some believed it was left by an Immortal Transformation after the Tribulation, while others thought this is the fundamental reason there’s always lightning in Thunder City."

"Later, several families in Thunder City used secret arts to hide this place to cultivate Spirit Beasts."

"The aura produced by Thunder Fire brings significant improvement to the physique of Spirit Beasts."

Lin Chen suddenly realized.

"If you want your Spirit Beasts to comprehend its aura, it’s not impossible, but if you wish to enter the Thunder Fire’s core, it’s likely not permitted." Xu Pingzhi said.

"Since Thunder Fire is the foundation of Thunder City, I naturally wouldn’t dare to be reckless. Even being able to sense some aura is already very good." Lin Chen said.

"Very well."

Xu Pingzhi said with a smile, "I cannot make this decision alone; after all, you are from outside Thunder City. I will discuss it with the other families and give you an answer."

"Thank you, Patriarch Xu." Lin Chen cupped his hands.

Upon hearing Xu Pingzhi speak this way, Lin Chen knew he was unlikely to gain any benefits.

Simply sensing the aura of Thunder Fire from the outskirts was certainly not allowed.

However, Lin Chen was still willing to give it a try, considering he had already come this far.

....

That night, Lin Chen received a reply: all families in Thunder City allowed Lin Fan to enter.

This made Lin Chen feel quite grateful.

The way Thunder City’s powers handle things is indeed worth learning from. No wonder Thunder City, as a central city, holds such high prestige.

"This way, please." Xu Pingzhi personally led Lin Chen to the Patriarch’s courtyard and then turned the stone beside the spring.

At this moment, a rumbling sound emanated from underground, and an underground chamber slowly appeared before Lin Chen’s eyes.

Xu Pingzhi walked in front, with Lin Chen and Qin Shaoshao following behind.

As soon as Qin Shaoshao took a step in, his pupils dilated.

"What’s wrong?" Lin Chen asked.

"It seems the senior has sensed its aura." Xu Pingzhi said, extremely surprised internally.

They had just entered the underground, yet Qin Shaoshao could already feel the aura of Thunder Fire, which hinted at the strength of Qin Shaoshao’s abilities.

Below, there were numerous chambers extending in all directions.

"This is one of the core secrets behind the three great families’ long-lasting prosperity..." Xu Pingzhi made no secret of it, since they had already arrived at this place.

Last night, Xu Pingzhi hosted a citywide family meeting, where one of the topics discussed was:

Thunder City’s attitude towards Lin Chen.

If Thunder City opened up to Lin Chen, he would learn many secrets of Thunder City.

After deliberation, Thunder City made a unanimous decision to bind Lin Chen.

This so-called binding means to cultivate goodwill.

All the forces in Thunder City believed that Lin Chen’s displayed abilities were top-notch, but his character was what they valued more.

They believed that if they could build a good rapport with him, if Thunder City were ever in trouble, Lin Chen, given his personality, would not be a bystander.

Thus, Xu Pingzhi not only told Lin Chen about the situation here but also brought him to the innermost chamber.

"This is the closest place to the Thunder Fire."

"The closer the distance, the better the effect. How much you can comprehend next depends on yourself." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Xu Pingzhi said.

"This place is probably only accessible to core disciples." Lin Chen scanned the area, then said, "Thank you, City Lord Xu."

"I will certainly keep this matter confidential."

"Haha, good, then I will take my leave. If you encounter any issues, you can ring the bell inside the door."

"Alright."

Lin Chen cupped his hands,

After Xu Pingzhi and Qin Shaoshao left, Lin Chen went in alone and indeed found it very hot.

Lin Chen summoned all the Spirit Beasts, and Little Fox reacted first.

"You can sense the fire?" Lin Chen marveled, thinking that the Child of Anomalous Fire lived up to its name.

Surprisingly, Xiao Hong shook its head vigorously; it wasn’t sensing an Anomalous Fire but felt that the upgrade here could be very fast.

"..."

Lin Chen quickly said, "That’s enough; your level is already fast enough."

"Goo goo~~"

Little Fox nodded, indicating it knew its limits.

Lin Chen didn’t bother with it since Little Fox was also an experienced cultivator who knew how to cultivate.

...

He turned his head to check around but did not see a trace of fire.

Lin Chen thought, it’s hopeless now.

Unexpectedly, the walls suddenly seemed electrified, glowing blue.

Lin Chen paused, wondering if it was about to burst out?

If this Thunder Fire had truly been sealed underground for so long as Xu Pingzhi said, it would be an extremely terrifying force, which Lin Chen couldn’t afford to provoke.

At this moment, Xiaobai bleated, and Lin Chen turned back to see a shocking scene.

He saw the Fire Spirit leaning against the wall, grabbing the blue fire with its bare hands and swallowing it.

"Little Fire, what are you doing?" Lin Chen asked.

"Wawu wawu."

The Fire Spirit raised its hand, holding a ball of blue fire, which flickered with lightning.

Lin Chen was stunned.

The Fire Spirit informed Lin Chen that the Thunder Fire didn’t seem to repel it and rushed towards it.

Lin Chen found this astonishing.

After the Fire Spirit ate for a while, its belly was full, and it collapsed to the ground, snoring.

Lin Chen then let Xiao Hong and the others start cultivating, then stealthily approached the Fire Spirit and extended his hand, preparing to place it on the Fire Spirit’s forehead.

"Will it have an effect?" Lin Chen was very hopeful.

Although this Thunder Fire is not a formal Anomalous Fire, it’s still a kind of flame in the world.

Within it contains both Thunder and Fire Attributes, and he wondered if it could unlock the Fire Spirit’s skills.

After all, Lin Chen was very much looking forward to its move "True Fire Incarnate".
