To others, nine suns crystals were incredibly rare but to Huo Yuan, they were easily obtainable.
At this moment, Monk Huo Yuan's magical treasure, which was the Sun Moon Portable Spade, had self-destructed in order to break the formation. As for the string of fire-stone-like Buddhist beads that he wore around his neck, it was long gone.
Later on, Lin Jin found out that Huo Yuan had sacrificed the prayer beads he had been nourishing for three hundred years in order to cast the Flare Evasion.
It was also because of this that when Lin Jin fought God Yan, he didn't have the Buddha beads to cast Huo Luo Evasion a second time, which was why he ended up in such a sorry state. If Lin Jin hadn't accidentally barged in and let Huo Yuan know that there was a loophole in the Heaven and Earth Barrier outside, Huo Yuan might have died in God Yan's hands.
That string of prayer beads was actually a nine suns crystal.
Each bead was a nine suns crystal and there were a total of one hundred and eight of them. When Lin Jin found out, he felt a pang of pain. In order to find a single nine suns crystal, he had traversed thousands of mountains and rivers. Who knew how many trials and tribulations he had to go through? He had even risked his life to enter an extraterrestrial territory.
How difficult and arduous was that?
And yet, Huo Yuan had used up one hundred and eight nine suns crystals just to cast the Flare Evasion.
To Lin Jin, this was a complete waste.
Of course, Lin Jin knew very well that Huo Yuan's Heaven Evasion was an incredible spell. Moreover, Huo Yuan was fleeing for his life.
Compared to his life, one hundred and eight nine suns crystals were nothing.
Lin Jin could have let these thoughts slide. But now that he had gotten to know Huo Yuan by chance, according to the monk, if he wanted nine suns crystals, he could get as many as he wanted.
These words were not just empty words. Following that, Monk Huo Yuan really flipped through his robes and a Nine Yang Crystal appeared in his pocket.
"I condensed this bead some time ago. I wanted to make a bracelet out of it but I forgot about it as I was too busy. Lin Jin, if you need it, just take it. If it's not enough, we can head to my cave abode later and I'll get you a few Buddha beads that I've used before. You can just break one of them off and use it."
Huo Yuan looked generous. Lin Jin accepted the nine suns crystal excitedly. Lin Jin would only listen to the other empty promises, but this nine suns crystal was the real deal.
One was enough.
Northern Qi's Xiang Yun had already successfully refined the Intense Flame Pill, and not just one. Now that he had the Nine Yang Crystal, it was as easy as turning over his hand for Xiao Huo to reach the sixth level.
Lin Jin didn't want to wait a second longer.
He wanted to evolve into Xiao Huo immediately. Once he reached Rank 6, Lin Jin would be able to check out the method to reach Rank 7.
It was like a maze with layers upon layers. Only by entering one layer could one see the next.
"Xiaohuo!"
Lin Jin called out softly. Immediately, a ball of flame surged out from his shoulder and coalesced into the form of a fire wolf.
It was Huo Yuan and Northern Qi's first time seeing Lin Jin's fire wolf as well. Although they could tell that the fire wolf wasn't strong, they were still amazed by the fact that Lin Jin was able to fuse a beast's body with his own.
Xiao Huo still looked the same. His entire body was covered in flame-like fur. Because they were both of the fire attribute, Monk Huo Yuan took a liking to this little wolf at first glance.
"This wolf cub is well raised."
Lin Jin reached out to stroke Xiao Huo's head before eagerly taking out the Intense Flame Pill and the nine suns crystal to feed Xiao Huo.
This was the method Xiao Huo learned from the Museum of Deadly Beasts. Now that Lin Jin had gathered all the materials, all that was left was to witness the evolution process.
After swallowing the Intense Flame Pill and the nine suns crystal, Xiao Huo's body instantly burst into flames.
Not only that, but Xiao Huo's body began to grow in size. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a giant wolf and his fur turned into flames.
"Wow, he's breaking through." Being a True Immortal Fire-Cultivating, Monk Huo Yuan realized what was going on. After pondering for a moment, he chuckled and spat out a small green flame.
With his sharp eyes, Lin Jin could tell that this was a special type of flame. It was similar to the Earthly Brilliance Green Flame he found underground in Maple City. Moreover, it was clearly of a higher grade.
After all, this was taken out by a True Immortal Fire-Cultivating so it must be extraordinary.
"This old monk likes fire cultivators the most. However, in this world, there aren't many fire cultivators left. It's even rarer to cultivate to this level. Since we've met, it's fate. This old monk will give you an opportunity. This ball of Emerald Yin Flame is for you."
Having said that, he flicked his wrist.
That small green flame shot toward Xiao Huo's body and was absorbed into him.
Lin Jin quickly thanked him. He could tell that this was Monk Huo Yuan's help. That small ball of green flame must be something special. By fusing it with Xiao Huo during his evolution, Xiao Huo's grade would be greatly enhanced. His strength would definitely rise to the next level and he might even be reborn, increasing his potential.
With this, Xiao Huo's path to Rank 7, Rank 8, or even Rank 9 would be smoother.
"It's fine, it's fine. It's nothing." Monk Huo didn't claim credit because he wanted to return Lin Jin's favor. After all, Lin Jin was the one who saved his life.
Looking at Xiao Huo, the flames on his body were initially green and crimson, but now, they were tinged with green. Xiao Huo had fused many different fire sources and he now had three types of flames.
One was the Earthly Brilliance Green Flame, the second was the Phoenix Flame, and the third was the Emerald Yin Flame. In addition to his original Dragonfire, after evolving to Rank 6, Xiao Huo's combat strength would definitely be superior to his peers. In Lin Jin's opinion, fighting a Pseudo Immortal wouldn't be a problem. As long as he didn't run into a true immortal, his chances of winning were much higher.
Boom!
The flames on Xiao Huo's body surged and spread, burning many of the trees nearby. Even Lin Jin and the others had to take cover.
Then, a fiery tribulation condensed above Xiao Huo's head.
In the next instant, a condensed fireball appeared out of thin air and blasted toward Xiao Huo. This attack was enough to burn a Pseudo Immortal to death. However, Xiao Huo merely opened his mouth and swallowed the fireball. Then, the fireball vanished without a trace.
Was this considered a tribulation?
Through their blood contract, Lin Jin could clearly sense that Xiao Huo's strength had increased by more than ten times. No doubt, Xiao Huo had evolved.
A Rank 6 fire wolf. This was probably the first time since the birth of the fire wolf species. While Lin Jin was overjoyed, he also knew that this was just the beginning.
His strength had increased by leaps and bounds, right?
However, if he were to go up against God Lord Gai, he still wouldn't stand a chance. Even if Monk Huo Yuan and Northern Qi's Xiang Yun were added to the equation, it would still be the same.
Not to mention, he might have to face a Rank 9 immortal devouring beast in the future.
Hence, it was still the same saying. Don't be complacent. Keep up the good work.
