Jiang Chen's soul had regained a bit of consciousness from the Soul Shock. However, he didn't know how long it would take for his soul to wake up again. It might even take millions of years. There might not even be any results.
"Eh?"
Hong Lian's heart shuddered violently. She suddenly raised her head as a gleam of excitement flickered through her eyes. This was because she could sense that Jiang Chen was still alive. It was an almost undetectable presence of his soul.
"Jiang Chen isn't dead yet!"
Hong Lian said gravely.
The Fire Qilin also exclaimed.
"Really?"
"To be exact, he isn't completely dead yet. However, his aura is far too weak. "
Hong Lian shook her head. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Therefore, she only hoped that she could find a chance in this rare opportunity.
"It's almost inaudible."
The Fire Qilin nodded. He couldn't feel it. Only when Hong Lian said so did he feel hopeful.
"Right now, Jiang Chen's entire body and soul are frozen. It's almost impossible to help him recover," the Fire Qilin murmured gravely.
The Fire Qilin's heart was incomparably solemn as it muttered to itself. At the very least, it was helpless.
"There's still a chance."
Hong Lian's face was red as she said softly.
"As long as I can fuse with him, the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus can melt the extreme coldness of the Cold River Stone. Then, Jiang Chen can recover."
The Fire Qilin looked at Hong Lian in shock. To her, it would definitely be a great injury. It might even be irreparable.
"If Jiang Chen and I can't wake up, then take me and Jiang Chen away from here. Bury us in a place where no one will ever know. Perhaps one day, when the sky is boundless and the sea is boundless, we will wake up one day."
Hong Lian smiled and said calmly. Since she had already made up her mind, she wouldn't leave any regrets.
"This … alright."
The Fire Qilin nodded heavily. He was able to survive because of Jiang Chen's desperate struggle. Even if he had to sacrifice his life, he wouldn't let anyone harm them.
The Fire Qilin turned around and left, leaving enough space for the red lotus.
Hong Lian stared at Jiang Chen. At this moment, Jiang Chen was like an ice sculpture. The entire volcano of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain was also covered in ice. The mountain of fire had almost become a mountain of ice.
"Whether you can survive or not will depend on this. If you can be in perfect harmony, it means that you are not fated to die. "
Red Lotus gently took off her silk dress. She was as beautiful as a fairy, devastatingly beautiful. Her jade-like body was breathtaking, her beauty unmatched.
Hong Lian hugged Jiang Chen, who had already been frozen into an ice sculpture. At that moment, the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus engulfed the two of them. Endless flames shot up into the sky. One could only see Hong Lian hugging Jiang Chen within the raging flames. Their bodies were tightly pressed together.
The source of the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus was a little stronger than the cold energy of the Cold River Stone. After all, it wasn't breaking the seal of the Cold River Stone, it was only breaking the energy of its backlash. Even so, it was exceptionally difficult. The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus continuously circled around Jiang Chen. The ice melted, the ice melted. Jiang Chen's heart, Jiang Chen's soul, and Jiang Chen's body were all changing bit by bit.
Time passed. Day after day, year after year. After three years, Jiang Chen's body finally melted completely. The ice on Jiang Chen's body had completely melted. His body was also extremely cold. The source of the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus had almost been completely used up in these three years. Hong Lian was completely exhausted.
However, her efforts were not in vain. Jiang Chen had finally awakened from the ice sculpture. His soul and body had also recovered to an extremely good state. She used the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus to ignite the Five Elemental True Fire in his heart. Moreover, they were in perfect harmony. Almost half of the source of the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus had been integrated into Jiang Chen's body by Hong Lian.
"Is he finally going to wake up?"
Hong Lian murmured. She was extremely happy in her heart. Even though she was on the verge of death and the source of the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus was about to be extinguished, Jiang Chen was still alive. As long as she still had a breath left, she would definitely not die. However, it was different for Jiang Chen. If she did not use the source of the Karmic Fire to save him, he would have died. Who knows how many tens of thousands of years it would take for him to recover. Even if his soul still had a breath left, it would not be easy for him to wake up.
"Now that you have the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus, I hope that you will cherish it. Don't disappoint me, Little Craftsman God …"
After she finished speaking, Hong Lian slowly fell onto Jiang Chen's body.
A brief moment later, when Jiang Chen woke up, he was slightly startled when he saw the naked Hong Lian in front of him. However, the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus that coexisted with the Five Elemental True Fire in his Dantian had already told him everything.
Jiang Chen raised his head and covered Red Lotus with a layer of clothes. In the next moment, her body underwent a tremendous change, turning into a dazzling fiery red golden lotus, vivid and lifelike.
Jiang Chen held the golden fire lotus in his hand. His heart was filled with gratitude. If it was not for Hong Lian, he did not know when he would be able to regain his life. The kindness that Hong Lian had shown him was akin to giving him a new lease on life.
"You actually gave me half of your True Fire Essence. Won't you regret it when you wake up in the future? After losing half of your True Fire Essence, you will never have the chance to reach the peak again. "
Jiang Chen quietly said. The True Fire Essence was the source of Hong Lian's life. In order to save him, she had fused with him and even used her True Fire Essence to help him. His life had already been completely intertwined with hers and could never be separated again. If Hong Lian was destroyed, he would be fine, but if he was destroyed, Hong Lian would also cease to exist.
"You've given your life to me. Hong Lian, I will never let you be silent in this lifetime."
Jiang Chen firmly said. Although he did not know how long it would take for Hong Lian to wake up, or even ten thousand years, Jiang Chen would never give up hope. Once he stepped into the Martial Emperor Realm, he would definitely find a way to help her recover her True Fire Essence.
The two blazing flames in Jiang Chen's body made him even more solemn. The True Fire Essence of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire Essence had completely fused with him. Otherwise, he would not have been able to withstand the Cold River Stone's backlash.
Jiang Chen clenched his fists, the Five Elemental True Fire in his left hand and the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus on his right. At that moment, he could feel the energy in his body rising continuously. The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus might not increase his strength by much, but it was released when the opponent was unprepared. Even a Peak Divine King would be scared out of his wits. A slight mistake and he would be burned to ashes by the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus.
"Jiang Chen, you're finally awake!"
