Chapter 1364
Qu Dajiang’s wings flapped as he chased after Long Chen, getting closer and closer . Just as he was on the verge of locking onto him, a flame dragon appeared in front of him .
The flame dragon appeared extremely suddenly and devoured Qu Dajiang before he could react .
He was about to circulate his flame energy to resist this powerful Earth Flame Spirit Beast when it suddenly self-destructed, blowing him away .
Qu Dajiang appeared with nine flowers behind him . The self-destruction of the flame dragon hadn’t harmed him at all .
However, he now had a cold and sinister expression . With a snort, he continued chasing after Long Chen . This was the Heaven Dragon Flame Region, and the senses of flame cultivators were a hundred times sharper here than in the outside world .
“Fuck, the difference is too great . ” Long Chen cursed inside when he saw Qu Dajiang still chasing . Just now, one of Huo Long’s split bodies had been close by, and Huo Long had sent it to block Qu Dajiang, even sacrificing it to stop him . But Qu Dajiang was completely fine .
Long Chen realized just how bad the situation was . Flame cultivators were true experts, and their power was far, far greater than alchemists . Moreover, Qu Dajiang wasn’t just a flame cultivator, he was a rank nine Jade Core Celestial .
Qu Dajiang was getting closer . His wings clearly had some sort of special energy within them, or there was no way he could be so fast .
Clenching his teeth, Long Chen suddenly spun around, smashing the Blazing Dragon Cauldron at Qu Dajiang .
“Hmph, nothing more than a death struggle,” sneered Qu Dajiang . He let out a single punch, not even bothering to summon his manifestation . In his eyes, Long San wasn’t worth him wasting the effort .
“Is that so?” Long Chen smiled coldly . His sleeves suddenly exploded, and blood dripped down his arm . A fierce, violent power smashed into Qu Dajiang .
Qu Dajiang was shocked . He sensed Long San’s power had at least doubled from his previous peak .
Qu Dajiang’s wrist broke and he shot back like a shooting star hundreds of miles away .
Long Chen was covered in blood after this attack . He immediately turned and fled . Just now, he had used thirty percent of the power of his immortal platforms, but his body had been unable to bear it .
Just this one attack allowed Long Chen to see the difference . Even taking such a risk had only broken Qu Dajiang’s wrist . It was barely an injury to a Celestial .
Furthermore, Qu Dajiang hadn’t even been using his manifestation, let alone his trump cards . Long Chen wasn’t his match .
“Hahaha, interesting . At just the Foundation Forging realm, you already have such power . This will make the hunt more fun . ” Qu Dajiang laughed . That laughter was hair raising . It was like he was playing a game of cat and mouse, and he continued chasing Long Chen .
Long Chen’s expression sank . The situation was extremely unfavorable for him . If this continued, he really might be killed . The feeling of having power but not being able to use it was truly irritating .
However, he also knew that even if he could use his full power, his chances of victory would still be extremely low . To fight a rank nine Celestial across realms was essentially impossible .
Long Chen was constantly looking around as he fled . His eyes suddenly brightened, and he immediately changed directions .
“Long San, I’ll chase you until you know despair . There’s no place for you to go, neither the heavens nor hell!” Qu Dajiang was still getting closer . He laughed sinisterly . He delighted in seeing the expressions of despair and unwillingness on the people he killed right before their deaths .
He had barely finished speaking when Long Chen suddenly hurled himself at a large mountain . He pierced a hole into it .
At the same time, a flame sphere exploded from ahead . That was something Long Chen had thrown right before .
After the flame sphere exploded, the ground split open, and lava spurted into the air . A huge golden phoenix flew out of the lava .
The first thing the phoenix saw was Qu Dajiang rushing in its direction . It let out a heaven-shaking cry and shot at him .
Qu Dajiang had been flabbergasted by Long Chen’s sudden actions, but when he saw this golden phoenix, he immediately turned pale .
“Heaven Incinerating Flame?!”
Qu Dajiang couldn’t bother with Long Chen . He immediately turned and ran .
However, the infuriated phoenix refused to let him off . It thought that Qu Dajiang had intentionally provoked it, and it chased him .
Qu Dajiang was infuriated at being schemed against by Long San . It had clearly been Long San’s attack, but somehow the blame had fallen on him .
He wanted to say that Long San was right there, but an Earth Flame Spirit Beast’s intelligence was limited . There was no way it would understand him .
As an extremely powerful flame cultivator, he naturally knew what this golden phoenix was . And since he knew what it was, he also knew he had to run .
A man and a bird flew into the distance as quick as lightning . Only then did Long Chen come out of his hole . He carried out a head-sized crystal .
The crystal was fiery red and emitted a bewitching light . Long Chen had a delighted expression .
“This is a Divine Flame Crystal, something that contains the purest flame energy of the world! I didn’t expect to find such a treasure here . ”
Long Chen hesitated for a moment . Looking in the direction Qu Dajiang had fled, he prayed inside that he could last for a bit longer .
Then Long Chen dove into the lava the golden phoenix had flown out of . Wrapping himself in flame energy, he swam down .
Dozens of meters below, he found another Divine Flame Crystal . He delightedly extracted it .
This Divine Flame Crystal was extremely miraculous . Despite containing an immense amount of flame energy, it didn’t release any heat and was lustrous like a gem . The terrifying energy within it didn’t leak out at all .
Continuing to swim down, he gathered over ten of these crystals . His smile threatened to break his mouth .
The deeper he went, the more Divine Flame Crystals he found . By the time he had reached a depth of three thousand meters, he had obtained over three hundred of them .
Huo Long was indescribably excited . It was wrapped around a Divine Flame Crystal in the primal chaos space, absorbing its energy .
The amount of energy inside it was too terrifying, and without any experience, Huo Long lost control, and a three thousand mile stretch of huge trees was incinerated .
Huo Long was horrified, thinking it had caused a huge calamity . Long Chen comforted it . Right now, the Iron Spruce Oaks in the primal chaos space were almost useless to him . Incinerating a few was no problem .
Long Chen had Huo Long focus on absorbing the Divine Flame Crystal’s energy while he continued gathering more . He needed to gather as many as possible before the golden phoenix returned .
As he dug, he suddenly noticed that in an even deeper place, there was a huge cave opening . When he went down there, he gasped .
This cave, which was thousands of meters wide, was lined completely in Divine Flame Crystals . There was no way to estimate how many of them there were .
“I’m rich!!!”
A roar erupted in Long Chen’s heart . Just a single Divine Flame Crystal was enough to cause countless alchemists to go crazy in the outside world . Then what about this many?
Divine Flame Crystals could be likened to the highest possible grade of flame spirit stones . Flame cultivators could absorb their energy to increase their cultivation speed .
Furthermore, they could be used to forge powerful flame-attribute weapons . When the Blazing Dragon Cauldron saw the Divine Flame Crystals, it immediately begged for one .
The Blazing Dragon Cauldron and Huo Long were currently absorbing the energy from one each . These Divine Flame Crystals were priceless treasures to them .
As for Long Chen, seeing these Divine Flame Crystals, his See A Treasure And Can’t Walk Away Disease struck again . He charged toward the cave’s walls .
However, he had only just moved when his expression completely changed . He sensed grave danger approaching . His intuition was telling him that the golden phoenix was rapidly approaching .
“Little treasures, don’t worry . I’ll return soon!”
Long Chen unwillingly left the cave of Divine Flame Crystals . Although he was unwilling, he had to flee . If the golden phoenix blocked his path, he’d be dead .
Long Chen hastily flew out of the lava . Just a few breaths’ later, the golden phoenix returned . It circled its territory for a moment before diving into the lava again .
…
Qu Dajiang was lying in a mountain cave, his whole body charred and smelling like meat that had been cooked seventy percent . If you added some cumin and hot pepper, it would definitely be enticing .
“How hateful . ”
Qu Dajiang was wracked with pain . The golden phoenix itself wasn’t too powerful, but its flames were terrifying . Whatever they touched would ignite .
Although he had managed to escape, the Heaven Incinerating Flame had turned him into roast pork .
“Long San, hehe, excellent . I didn’t expect you to bring me such a windfall . As thanks, I’ll make sure to give you a quick death next time!”
Qu Dajiang smiled . But he had forgotten that his whole body was burned, smiling tugged on his facial muscles, causing him to tear up in pain .
…
Long Chen was flying . He found a mountain stream and immediately dug a hole, concealing the outside . Confirming there were no obvious signs of his presence, he finally relaxed slightly .
“It’s about time to condense the fifth star . Let’s see if I can refine the fifth star’s pill formula right away . ”
Long Chen closed his eyes . After he had used the second volume of the Nirvana Scripture to wipe away the curse, some new memories had appeared in his mind . He finally had a chance to go through them .
“How could it be like this?!” Long Chen was shocked by what he saw .
