Lin Jin finally learned how to refine nine suns crystals. While it was true that fire-cultivating immortals could refine nine suns crystals, it wasn't something that could be done in minutes.
Even a fire-cultivating immortal would need some effort to refine nine suns crystals. This was largely dependent on the fire-cultivating immortal's cultivation level and proficiency.
But to put it simply, using Huo Yuan as an example, it would take him seven days to refine one nine suns crystal.
This seven days would also consume a lot of mana and effort. Generally speaking, it would take Huo Yuan at least ten years to refine one hundred and eight nine suns crystal beads.
After all, he had other matters to attend to. He couldn't just focus on refining nine suns crystals. Ten years was considered fast. Some fire-cultivating immortals would need at least thirty years to refine one prayer bead.
In that case, nine suns crystals were precious.
One might not mean much, but a string of prayer beads made up of more than a hundred of them was definitely a priceless treasure.
And now, Lin Jin had two of these priceless treasures.
They were given to him by Huo Yuan.
In addition, there was also a string of large nine suns crystal beads in his hand. Each bead was the size of a longan and they glowed brightly as if they contained red-hot metal balls.
Nine suns crystals were categorized into upper and lower grade. These large nine suns crystals were obviously of the upper grade that could only be found by chance.
Of course, Huo Yuan wasn't foolish enough to give all the nine suns crystals he had to Lin Jin. The two hundred or so he had to keep some for himself.
There was no need to talk about anything else. If he met another strong enemy or if he met God Sovereign Yan, Monk Huo Yuan would need Nine Yang Crystals to improve his magic techniques. And if he couldn't win, he could use Huo Luo Heaven Evasion.
However, the Fire Evasion required quite a lot of materials. One cast would require one hundred and eight nine suns crystals. No matter how wealthy Huo Yuan was, he couldn't afford such expenditure.
"I plan to go into seclusion and refine more nine suns crystals to save my life. Things aren't peaceful these days," Huo Yuan said helplessly.
Lin Jin agreed with this idea.
Had Lin Jin been in her shoes, he would definitely make good use of such an awesome escape technique like the Flare Evasion. From now on, he wouldn't even dare to step out of the house without three Buddha beads around his neck.
Now that he had enough nine suns crystals, he was short on Intense Flame Pills. Lin Jin asked Northern Qi's Xiang Yun to help him refine the pills. As for the materials required, Northern Qi had some on hand and Huo Yuan had some in his cave. Lin Jin estimated that refining ten Intense Flame Pills shouldn't be a problem.
Although this was still far from the thirty pills Lin Jin needed, now wasn't the time to complain. Being able to produce ten pills was already a blessing in disguise. In addition to what Lin Jin had on hand, he now had half of what he needed.
Next, he just needed to gather the other half.
Three days later.
As expected of an immortal-grade alchemist, Northern Qi's Xiang Yun's alchemy skills were truly brilliant. In just three days, she managed to refine ten Intense Flame Pills.
Previously, Huo Yuan had mentioned that other immortal-grade alchemists might need three days to refine one Intense Flame Pill. Northern Qi's Xiang Yun was able to refine ten pills in three days. She was the only one with this kind of speed.
Based on this, Lin Jin knew he had picked up a treasure.
Next, Lin Jin planned to contact Xuan Dao Sect and Cloud Path Sect. Firstly, he wanted to inform them that he was out of trouble, so they didn't have to worry. At the same time, he wanted Northern Qi's Xiang Yun to refine more Intense Flame Pills so he had to find a source for the remaining materials.
Xuan Dao Sect and Cloud Path Sect had rich resources so it shouldn't be a problem for them to gather the remaining materials for the Intense Flame Pills.
However, there was one thing that changed Lin Jin's plans.
Not long after Northern Qi's Xiang Yun finished refining the ten Intense Flame Pills, Lin Jin was contemplating when Huo Yuan suddenly came out of seclusion from refining the nine suns crystals with a solemn expression.
Lin Jin and Northern Qi's Xiang Yun were puzzled. After asking, Huo Yuan only replied with one sentence.
"A powerful enemy has arrived!"
This powerful enemy was most likely God Lord Cover.
Sure enough, not long after Huo Yuan came out, God Lord Cover's voice came from outside the cave.
"Master Huo Yuan, Mr. Lin, God Lord Cover isn't here to continue being your enemy. He's here to ask for a favor and he's here to ask for peace."
His voice was imbued with magical power so even the cave, which was reinforced with many restrictions, could hear him clearly.
Upon hearing God Lord Cover's voice, Northern Qi's Xiang Yun paled.
To her, God Lord Hide was too terrifying. Moreover, he was so powerful that he was almost invincible. Back then, God Lord Hide had destroyed the Northern Qi Alchemy School by himself. It was not just the Northern Qi Alchemy School. The number of immortal sects that God Lord Hide had destroyed over the years, as well as the number of immortal slaves that he had captured, were simply too many.
Even more immortals had died in God Lord Cover's hands.
In Northern Qi's Xiang Yun's eyes, he was a demon.
Hence, upon hearing God Lord Cover's voice and knowing that he had found his way here, Northern Qi's Xiang Yun instinctively felt afraid. But in the next instant, she turned this fear into hatred and murderous intent.
She wanted revenge.
Ever since God Lord Cover destroyed her sect hundreds of years ago, revenge had taken root in Northern Qi's Xiang Yun's heart. Not only had it not weakened over the years, but it had also grown stronger.
As long as she could take revenge and kill God Lord Cover, Northern Qi's Xiang Yun was willing to do anything.
Lin Jin had been spending time with Northern Qi's Xiang Yun. Although one was an immortal and the other a human, their relationship had improved by leaps and bounds. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were best friends now.
Noticing Northern Qi's murderous intent, Lin Jin said, "God Lord Cover is still powerful. This isn't the time for revenge."
At this, Northern Qi's Xiang Yun suppressed her murderous intent.
She listened to Lin Jin's words. She knew very well that among the three of them, only Huo Yuan was slightly stronger. Even so, Huo Yuan was almost killed by Lord God Gai earlier.
How many days had it been? It was impossible for Huoyuan to surpass God Lord Cover or even suppress him.
Even if she and Lin Jin were included, it would still be the same.
Northern Qi's Xiang Yun was only a Hollow Immortal and she wasn't proficient in offensive skills so there was a limit to how much she could help. The other problem was Lin Jin.
Based on Northern Qi's understanding of Lin Jin, although he was just a mortal, his offensive skills were definitely better than an immortal like her.
He was even better than most Hollow Immortals.
However, Lin Jin had analyzed the matter of revenge for her over the past few days. Only by allying with Xuan Dao Sect's Spiritual Master Miao Yan or Cloud Path Sect's Spiritual Master Mystic Moon would they have a chance.
Otherwise, it would be suicide.
