Goldy was already at Rank 5. If all went well, with the help of the furnace, he should be able to reach Rank 6 and truly activate the Golden Crow's bloodline.
By then, Goldy's strength would increase by at least ten times.
Lin Jin's expression was still grim.
Through the Ghost Blood Beast, he could sense that the spirit devourer ghost insects that had invaded the physical immortal's body were still alive.
What did this mean?
It meant that the physical immortal was still alive.
"What the hell is this? Why can't it be burned to death?" Lin Jin felt his scalp prickle. The current Heaven and Earth Furnace was the strongest spell he could cast.
The temperature in the furnace was comparable to that of the scorching sun.
How could it not die? The physical strength of a physical immortal had once again refreshed Lin Jin's understanding.
But the more it was like this, the more Lin Jin wanted to kill it.
Lin Jin reached into his Cosmic Bag and took out an amulet.
Vulcan Edict.
This was the edict spell Lin Jin was most familiar with. He wanted to add as much power as he could. Perhaps this small amulet would be the last straw that broke the immortal's back.
No need.
Lin Jin invoked a spell with one hand, activated the Vulcan Edict, and smashed it over.
Crack, crack.
The furnace grew in size again.
The current Heaven and Earth Furnace could destroy anything no matter where it struck. It could even burn mountains and seas.
Even the grass beneath Lin Jin's feet was burning. His surroundings were like a flaming hell. Other than the raging flames, blinding light, and scorching heat, he could feel nothing else.
Suddenly, Lin Jin felt the spirit devourer ghost insects disappear. They had been burned to death.
This discovery lifted Lin Jin's spirits.
The spirit devourer ghost insects hiding inside the physical immortal's body had been burned to death. This was a clear indication that the physical immortal was most likely dead.
But just to be safe, Lin Jin held on for a little longer before dispersing the Heaven and Earth Furnace.
There was already a huge pit in front of them. Everything around it was scorching hot, as if it was a volcano full of magma. Moreover, it was the kind that had just erupted.
Smoke billowed everywhere. It was no longer possible to tell what was left of the black fog wall and what was left of the fire.
Lin Jin was exhausted. He had given it his all against a True Immortal this time. If another True Immortal were to appear, he wouldn't be able to handle it.
Xiaohuo and Goldy flew over together.
Xiao Huo's situation was still alright. After all, Xiao Huo's body had already reached the seventh level, and he also had a Body of Flames. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he had an immortal body.
Apart from that, Xiaohuo's flames had also fused with the Phoenix Fire, and the Phoenix Fire could be reborn from the ashes.
In other words, even if Xiao Huo died, Lin Jin could resurrect him.
Just as Lin Jin predicted, Goldy had evolved.
But now, he was brimming with vigor. Just as Lin Jin predicted, Goldy had used the Heaven and Earth Furnace to temper his Golden Crow fire and evolved.
Sometimes, this was how things worked. If the timing was right and luck was on their side, a pet beast's evolution was as easy as poking a hole in a paper window.
This was especially true for Goldy. The rooster had always been blessed with good luck. Lin Jin knew that even with the help of the Heaven and Earth Furnace, while Goldy had a chance of evolving, the chances of that happening weren't high.
However, Goldy always managed to seize the opportunity and evolve successfully.
Having reached Rank 6, Goldy could even put up a fight against a hollow immortal. He might even emerge victorious.
At a time like this, having an additional Rank 6 pet beast on their side was undoubtedly good news.
"There's another hollow immortal. Go and find him!"
Lin Jin suddenly said.
Goldy understood. He spread his wings and flew off to hunt.
Lin Jin looked into the distance. Although he had used his full strength to kill that physical immortal, the danger wasn't over yet. Through the interrogation earlier, Lin Jin learned that the other party had a teleportation formation that could be used to teleport within this black fog prison. If that formation wasn't destroyed, more immortals from the Beast God Cult might attack.
Even if the Beast God Cult didn't come, Lin Jin would find a chance to go over.
Both parties were now like fire and water, eager to get rid of the other as soon as possible. Lin Jin was out in the open while the Beast God Cult and Patriarch Xue Pao lurked in the shadows. Moreover, the other party had this black fog prison that could conceal their presence. They could launch a sneak attack at any time and leaving them alive would only bring disaster.
Moments later, Goldy's cry came from afar.
Lin Jin flew over at once and saw a broken formation in a valley up ahead.
The formation had clearly been destroyed and the scene was a mess. However, Lin Jin could vaguely see many artifacts. Most of them were eerie bones and about a dozen jars that were half the height of a grown man.
However, most of these jars were broken and only one was slightly intact. Lin Jin went over to take a look and frowned.
This one was also stuffed with animal bones.
Lin Jin only knew a little about formations. Anything that was too profound was out of the question. This formation was clearly beyond Lin Jin's knowledge and it wasn't related to the pet beasts. Even the museum couldn't help him.
Goldy couldn't find the hollow immortal who escaped. If he was right, the other party must have left through the formation and destroyed it before leaving.
The other party sure was meticulous.
This was to be expected. In that situation earlier, he was the only one left alive out of the three immortals. This could only mean that the other party was very alert.
Looking up, Lin Jin noticed that the black fog had dissipated on its own.
Lin Jin knew that since the other party had dispersed the black fog, it meant that this incident had come to an end. The immortals of the Divine Beast Cult wouldn't dare to come out without the black fog to hide them.
From a certain point of view, the Rank 9 immortal devouring beast had become the guardian of this place.
Lin Jin stared at the scene of devastation. This area spanning a dozen miles had been completely destroyed. Not even a blade of grass could grow here. It was like hell. Not too long ago, this place was still a picturesque landscape.
'Perhaps the fall of immortals isn't a bad thing after all. 'For some reason, this thought suddenly popped into Lin Jin's mind.
After all, to mortals, immortals were too powerful. As long as one was human, regardless of whether they were mortals or immortals, there would be good and bad. Putting aside those who were kind, just those who were evil could cause great destruction. If it wasn't for the existence of the ninth level Immortal Devouring Beast, how would the various continents in the Central Plains have such a prosperous trend?
Next up was the cleanup.
Fortunately, the representatives from Jade Dragon City and Spiral Nation had arrived. Not only that, but the visitors of the Visitation Hall had also arrived.
These were all powerful helpers. With them around, Lin Jin didn't have to worry too much.
