Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 1714 - 1696: Fire of Heart Flame
"Enough with the excuses. What else do you have? Give it all to me!" The girl rushed to Lin Feng’s side and reached out her hand, eager eyes full of anticipation.
"Alright, it’s all yours!" Facing such a creature, Lin Feng couldn’t refuse. His divine sense probed the space ring, retrieving gifts for the ladies that were piled in the corner. To be honest, he didn’t even remember when he placed them there, but since the girl liked them, he might as well give everything to her.
In a flash, a pile of various dresses appeared in front of Lin Feng, along with some small accessories and items that girls tend to like...
The girl was overwhelmed with joy, picking up one item to compare it against herself, and then another—as her smile grew brighter. Seeing her so happy made Lin Feng feel delighted too; it was clear that this girl had never seen such beautiful things before, possibly never having left this place.
After some time, the girl came back to her senses, realizing Lin Feng was still there, and somewhat sheepishly said, "Sorry, I got too excited and made a fool of myself, but I won’t take these for free. I can offer you an opportunity—for your body to resist fire in the future if you withstand it without being burned to death. Do you choose to accept or not?"
"What are the chances of death?" Lin Feng asked a question before agreeing.
The girl seriously assessed Lin Feng’s body and said, "Considering your current condition, there should be a sixty to seventy percent chance. Although the process of refining the body isn’t very dangerous, the key is the pain—if you can’t maintain composure, the only outcome will be being burned to death."
"I accept!"
Upon hearing the girl’s words, Lin Feng immediately agreed. He had absolute confidence in his willpower. Pain? What’s the big deal? This opportunity is too good to pass up, one that others wouldn’t even dare to dream of.
After Lin Feng gave his definitive answer, the girl smiled and then suddenly a flame appeared on her fingertip. She pointed her slender finger at Lin Feng, and the flame flew to ignite on him. She then gathered up the pile of clothes and left.
Just after the girl left, Lin Feng suddenly let out a mighty scream!
"Ah..."
The sound was utterly wrenching, and a harrowing atmosphere emanated from Lin Feng—the sound made one’s skin crawl. Lin Feng’s strength was undeniably powerful, and his willpower was extraordinarily resilient, yet even he felt that pain was nonexistent for him. But when the flame burned upon him, he realized how wrong he was, astonishingly wrong...
Seeing Lin Feng in such agony, the girl seemingly remembered something, muttering to herself, "Ah, I forgot something—he’s a human, not a demon beast..."
Upon hearing the girl’s words, Lin Feng was at a loss for words, feeling completely set up. He wanted to shout something at the girl, but the searing pain rendered him speechless. He could only focus all his efforts to withstand it, for he could not die—dying would spell disaster for many, especially for the hopeful future of Earth...
Fierce flames continued to burn on Lin Feng, genuine fire raging around him. The temperature rose several meters surrounding him, scorching the ground a pitch-black hue. Lin Feng’s clothes had long burned away, now enveloped in Seven-Colored Gang Qi, his voice echoing with screams.
Completely inflamed, even Lin Feng could not bear this pain. His sole aim now was to guard his consciousness against collapse, for once his mind broke, he too would be reduced to ashes by that inferno...
Month one, aside from pain, Lin Feng felt nothing else.
Month two, the flames on Lin Feng began to transition into golden flames, intensifying the agony.
Month three, Lin Feng suddenly felt relief from the pain.
Month four, akin to a phoenix rebirth, he sensed changes occurring within his body.
Month five, ...
...
In an instant, over five years passed. The girl had long departed to try on the beautiful clothes, leaving Lin Feng alone at the original place, allowing softly glowing red flames dozens of meters high to burn on him...
......
"Damn it, what if something happened to Boss?" Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon paced outside, worried sick with Lin Feng showing no sign after all this time. His heart couldn’t express how anxious he felt; Lin Feng absolutely cannot be endangered, for the sky would literally collapse if he was!
"I don’t think so. If Boss really encountered trouble, we would have heard something by now. Maybe Boss is experiencing some opportunity here, we just need to wait." For the first time, Dark Flame Sky-Burning Tiger spoke this much, honestly worried for Lin Feng, yet even more he believed in Lin Feng’s strength. Under any circumstance, nothing would happen to Lin Feng, and even if it truly could, there should be news, so he believed nothing was wrong and patience was the key.
"Let’s hope that’s the case, but this realm is truly strange—it’s this deadly, yet we don’t know what Boss encountered inside," Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon added. He too didn’t wish for Lin Feng to be harmed, though Lin Feng’s long absence seemed tied to the realm, yet no one could fathom the mysteries within the realm.
Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf lay on the ground, eyes ceaselessly darting back and forth, filled with many thoughts. Now confirmed Lin Feng had surely overcome the poisonous mist and stumbled upon a huge opportunity in the realm, otherwise he wouldn’t still be inside.
Thinking this, Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf’s face grew more troubled. It started contemplating how to protect itself once Lin Feng emerged, knowing it fell one step short of reaching Demon Venerable Realm, feeling deeply unwilling about the current plight.
Yet now, wanting to flee lacked the power, constantly watched by two Demon Immortals, its barely recovering body continually beaten, forcing it into despair—left to lay there, awaiting doom...
......
"Ah..."
Within the realm, Lin Feng suddenly let out a fierce roar, and the flames dozens of meters high instantly contracted within his body. At this moment, a faint red shockwave erupted from Lin Feng, sweeping outward, leaving scorched earth in its wake...
Yet, surprisingly, the girl suddenly appeared, a flick of her jade finger causing the shockwave to dissipate within ten meters or so, then she breathed a sigh of relief, "Good thing I arrived in time, or else you’d have destroyed this place of mine!"
After saying this, the girl began observing Lin Feng. His entire presence had changed, his body uniquely strengthened, even exuding traces of fiery aura from his skin, more invigorated spirit, brighter eyes, prompting the girl to nod in satisfaction.
"Not bad, not bad, the integration of body and flame is good, hasn’t wasted my Heart Flame, compatibility exceeding 90%! Human, you truly surprise me!" Staring fixedly at Lin Feng’s naked body, the girl commented without a hint of embarrassment, as if evaluating something indifferent.
The girl remained casual, but Lin Feng could not. Despite the girl’s humanlike form, being watched by a young girl left him uncomfortable. With a thought, a garment appeared on his body, wrapping him securely.
"I am Lin Feng, eternally grateful for such a gift." Looking at the girl, Lin Feng spoke earnestly. His gratitude for this little girl before him was profound, albeit after over five years, his body had reached unprecedented heights, having thoroughly burned away all impurities and transformed his physique. Without exaggerating, his body now surely outmatched Demon Beasts; even solely relying on it, Lin Feng was confident he could punch through a Human Immortal Realm Peak adept.
"No need to thank me, it was something you deserved. But I do have high hopes for you, and if fate allows, I hope to see you again." The girl said with a smiling face, her expression like a blossoming flower.
"I hope you don’t mind me asking, considering your power, you can surely leave here—so why choose to remain?" Lin Feng inquired sincerely, puzzled why such an unfathomable girl wouldn’t venture out if he could enter.
Hearing Lin Feng’s question, the girl laughed and explained, "I’ve been here since birth, spending countless years here. From the moment I was born, there’s been a unique restriction preventing departure, and besides, I like it here. Haven’t you noticed I’ve made it quite beautiful? Once you get used to it, there’s no thought of leaving."
"I see." Lin Feng understood after listening, contemplating a bit before speaking, "There’s an exciting world outside, if you ever wish to leave, perhaps I can help find a way."
Indeed, Lin Feng wanted to bring this girl along, thinking it wasteful leaving such a terrifying being here. If he could persuade her to guard the Holy Wind Sect, even if the Immortal Realm descended, Lin Feng would fear no threat.
