Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

However, after the initial excitement, Chu Yunfan faced a difficult problem.

According to records, it takes a thousand years for a six-colored soul flower to grow into a seven-colored soul flower.

"It seems that this six-colored soul flower will take several hundred years to become a seven-colored soul flower."

It seems we'll have to find a way to accelerate its growth in the future.

Otherwise, I don't have that much time to wait for it to ripen!

After admiring the herb garden, Chu Yunfan turned his gaze to the place where the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor stored his treasures.

Needless to say, the spirit stones were plentiful. As a veteran Pill King, and even a Pill Emperor at the very end, the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor's storage ring was filled with mountains of spirit stones.

Moreover, they weren't low-grade spirit stones, but rather more precious mid-grade and high-grade spirit stones.

Seeing so many spirit stones, Chu Yunfan became numb, feeling as if he regarded spirit stones as dirt.

However, what he saw next made Chu Yunfan's eyes light up instantly.

This is a fiery red alchemy furnace, surrounded by nine fire dragons, with their mouths facing the furnace.

When refining pills, it's as if nine fire dragons are assisting in the process, adding a touch of domineering power and boosting the alchemist's confidence.

Upon first seeing this alchemy furnace, Chu Yunfan was very satisfied with it.

What happened next shocked Chu Yunfan even more.

Because, just as he was about to make the alchemy furnace recognize him as its master, a familiar voice suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Those who obtain my sacred artifact will bear the consequences of my actions."

"Young man, have you thought this through?"

Upon hearing this voice, Chu Yunfan's mind jolted, and the question in his mind immediately came out.

"You are the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor! Aren't you dead?"

Chu Yunfan stared at the alchemy furnace in front of him, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The response to Chu Yunfan came from the somewhat desolate voice of the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor.

"Although I am dead, at the last moment I comprehended a trace of the rules of fire. So I poured all my soul essence and alchemical fire into this Nine Dragon Furnace to help it take the final step and advance from a semi-sacred artifact to a true sacred artifact!"

And I myself have become the spirit of this Nine Dragon Furnace.

"I see!"

After hearing the explanation from the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor, Chu Yunfan instantly understood and felt extremely sorry for him.

After countless years of hard work and pursuit, when he finally grasped the true meaning of becoming a Martial Emperor and a Pill Emperor, his life had already come to an end. It is truly a pity and a lament.

Seeing the regret on Chu Yunfan's face, the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor became completely calm.

Because once you become a spirit of an artifact, although you can be said to have survived in a roundabout way, your human emotions will be erased by heaven and earth.

From then on, it was merely a soul-like being devoid of emotions.

Then, the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor asked the same question again.

"To obtain this Nine Dragon Furnace, one must bear the consequences and carry forward my alchemy skills."

"Younger generation, can you do it?"

Promoting alchemy was a deep-seated obsession for the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor, a conviction he held even after becoming a spirit.

Chu Yunfan, of course, would not refuse the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor, and replied in a very serious and earnest tone:

"This junior will certainly make your alchemy skills famous throughout the entire Azure Cloud Continent!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor shouted "Good!" and then directly took a drop of essence blood from Chu Yunfan's fingertip and integrated it into the Nine Dragons Furnace.

In the blink of an eye, the Nine Dragon Furnace completed its recognition of its master, and Chu Yunfan felt a strange connection between himself and the Nine Dragon Furnace.

With a thought, pale golden flames spewed from the mouths of the nine fire dragons of the Nine Dragon Furnace.

This pale golden flame is the flame that the Nine Dragons Furnace itself possesses, formed by the fusion of the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor's pill fire and a trace of fire rules that the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor comprehended.

The Crimson Flame Pill Emperor's pill fire has an extraordinary origin. It was extracted from the body of the Fire Dragon Lizard King and is called the Dragon Lizard Fire. It has a trace of true dragon bloodline and its power is extremely domineering.

Furthermore, with the Fire Rule that the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor finally comprehended, the power of this pale golden flame is extraordinary, even causing Martial Emperor realm experts to be wary of it.

Unfortunately, the fire rules contained in this pale golden flame were too weak, so it was still somewhat inferior to a true sixth-order flame.

Even so, Chu Yunfan was extremely satisfied.

"From now on, I'll still call you Dragon Lizard Fire!"

Chu Yunfan said with a smile, and then with another thought, he put away the flames of the Nine Dragon Furnace.

Immediately afterwards, the lid of the Nine Dragons Furnace flew up automatically, and a pale golden pill flew out of the furnace and landed in Chu Yunfan's hand.

"Swallow this sixth-tier fire-avoidance pill, and you will be immune to most of the damage from the Earth Core Fire Spirit for a short period of time."

That way, you can escape from here!

The voice of the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor rang in Chu Yunfan's ears at just the right moment.

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfan offered his own idea.

"Senior Chi Yan, if I swallow this sixth-tier fire-avoidance pill, and with our combined strength, can we subdue that Earth Core Fire Spirit?"

With the sixth-grade fire-avoiding pill and the Nine Dragon Furnace, Chu Yunfan felt full of confidence.

However, the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor immediately poured cold water on him, making him calm down.

"You only need to understand one thing: the Earth Core Fire Spirit is almost completely immune to fire-attribute damage, and then you won't have this idea!"

"Immune to fire damage?"

Chu Yunfan murmured to himself, instantly abandoning the idea of ​​subduing the Earth Core Fire Spirit.

With his current strength, he would be unable to deal with the Earth Core Fire Spirit without the help of the Nine Dragon Furnace and the weapon spirit Crimson Flame Pill Emperor.

However, the power of the Nine Dragon Furnace lies in the Dragon Lizard Fire and the Earth Core Fire, which are immune to fire damage, meaning they can completely ignore his attacks.

Of course, it cannot be said that it can be completely ignored, after all, Chu Yunfan still has the Death Blade, the power of death within which can damage the Earth Core Fire Spirit.

However, the Earth Core Fire Spirit was hidden in the magma, making it extremely slippery and giving Chu Yunfan no chance to use his death power.

Even if Chu Yunfan were to take a step back, with his current strength, he wouldn't be able to fully unleash the power of death. Even if he were to injure the Earth Core Fire Spirit by chance, the power of death wouldn't be enough to seriously damage it, thus giving Chu Yunfan a chance to subdue it.

Moreover, the power of death, an extremely dangerous force, would directly scare away the Earth Core Fire Spirit.

In this way, even if Chu Yunfan wanted to wait until he became stronger in the future to subdue the Earth Core Fire Spirit again, he would have no chance, because the Earth Core Fire Spirit had already escaped from here.

After standing there for a long time, weighing the pros and cons, Chu Yunfan finally decided to leave first and come back to subdue the Earth Core Fire Spirit when he was strong enough.

Just as Chu Yunfan made his decision, the protective barrier left by the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor at the entrance of the passage was finally completely shattered under the constant attacks of the Earth Core Fire Spirit.

Instantly, incredibly hot magma surged into the passage and rushed towards Chu Yunfan!
