Chapter 172 True Fire Mutation
Next up was the test of the Blaze Storm.

The area and speed of the flame storm have also increased by nearly double. Although it is called the Perfect Realm, it is actually only the effect of the Divine Enlightenment Realm.

While it is certainly not as powerful as the Super Flame Bullet, Flame Storm is a higher-quality skill. Even at the Perfect Realm, its effect is almost comparable to the Super Flame Bullet.

Both Liu Gu and Bai Ling were quite shocked; the former marveled at the little fox's talent, while the latter was amazed by what she had learned.
Watching the Red Velvet Chicken grow rapidly for a while, Bai Ling had a momentary illusion that she was also becoming stronger.

Looking at the little fox now, there's still a gap.

However, if Liu Gu knew about this idea, he would definitely be reprimanded.

The Red Velvet Chicken can obtain the phantom of a phoenix through a contract, and its future achievements will certainly be high. Its period of dominance will be after evolution.

Of course.
The little fox's current behavior is not just assertive, it's downright abnormal.

Liu Gu looked at Lin Chen curiously.
A cow, a fox, a bear—it seems Lin Chen has a particular fondness for mortal beasts?
Moreover, he always seems to be able to pick up good ones?
While deep in thought, Lin Chen excitedly said, "Little Red, prepare to test the Purifying True Fire."

Liu Gu was also looking forward to it when he heard about this place.

In fact, whether it's Xiaobai's Thousand Shadows Return to One or the Super Flame Bullet, even though they have undergone qualitative changes, they still seem so abnormal thanks to the support of other skills.

For example, Xiaobai's savage bloodline, plus the Eternal Demon Horn.

The Little Fox's Purifying Fire is the same; it essentially changes the nature of flames, which is equivalent to directly increasing damage.

In other words, the stronger the Purifying Fire becomes, the stronger all of the little fox's skills will become.

"Gu!!"

The little fox transformed into a five-tailed fire fox, standing in place with its tail held high like a pillar of burning flames.

It raised its head and let out a deep roar, its beastly power surging wildly within it.

Immediately afterwards, the flames emanating from its body began to change, gradually merging into a deep, pure gold color from their original fiery red hue.

Then it was completely frozen in pure gold.

Lin Chen and Liu Gu simultaneously confirmed that this was the Samadhi True Fire.

The true fire of Samadhi can be directly identified by its color.

Liu Gu told the little fox not to move and kept watching with a strange expression.

"Teacher, what's wrong?" Lin Chen asked.

“Look, there are other colors inside that pure gold,” Liu Gu said.

Upon closer inspection, Lin Chen discovered that it was indeed true.

Within that deep, pure gold, there was actually a touch of extreme red.

This red is different from crimson and ordinary red; it has a kind of aura of the Great Dao.

"Teacher, could this be because the evolution is not complete?" Lin Chen asked.

"Probably not." Liu Gu shook his head, thought for a moment and said, "Its pure gold concentration is sufficient, even more intense than regular pure gold. I suspect that it was infused with the flames of the phoenix's blood essence during its evolution."

"Phoenix Fire?" Lin Chen swallowed hard.

This phoenix fire is terrifying. If it's really as Liu Gu said, then the little fox is incredibly lucky.

"Teacher, do you know what kind of species this phoenix blood essence is?" Lin Chen asked again.

Liu Gu was completely stunned.

Zhang Jin gave him the phoenix essence directly, so how would he know what kind of phoenix it was?

After thinking for a moment, he said, "If it really is the flames of a phoenix, it doesn't matter what kind of fire it is, it won't be bad."

Lin Chen thought about it and realized that made sense.

"Goo~~"

The little fox turned to look at the two of them and asked if it could start using its skills.
Not to mention them, the little fox itself was also eager to see just how strong it had become.

"Let's begin," Lin Chen nodded.

The little fox then raised its head again, its five tails simultaneously rising high and dancing rapidly in mid-air, leaving afterimages in their wake.

Immediately afterwards, the tips of each tail began to flash with intense light, and fist-sized fireballs appeared out of thin air, radiating a scorching heat.

These five fireballs were originally crimson, but in an instant, under the blessing of the Purifying True Fire, they turned into pure gold.

Golden and dazzling, they slowly spun around under the little fox's control, seemingly drawn together by some mysterious attraction.

As time went by, the fireballs gradually approached each other, collided and merged, making a "sizzling" sound.

Ultimately, the five fireballs merged into one, forming a massive, dazzling super fireball.

The little fox opened its eyes wide, let out a roar, and slammed the enormous fireball, which was imbued with immense power, forward.

The fireball, like a burning meteor, hurtled towards the goldfish's bubbles.

Boom~~
A loud explosion rang out, followed by the smell of burning.

Looking at the goldfish's position again, you can see that the bubble has visibly sunken in quite a bit.

Lin Chen naturally couldn't understand it, but Liu Gu was so surprised that his pupils widened.

There is a huge difference in level between the little fox and the goldfish beast, yet the fox was able to force the water bubble to this point.

"How is it?" Lin Chen asked.

“The little fox definitely can’t puncture its blisters,” Liu Gu said, “but to be able to make them dent is already quite bizarre.”

This time, Liu Gu didn't use any other adjectives; he simply said "perverted."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up with joy, and the little fox let out a loud, cheerful laugh.

Throughout Little White's growth, the little fox often heard others say:

This cow is absolutely insane.

Now, finally someone is saying that even the little fox is a pervert.

So the little fox was very happy and started laughing to himself.

After the test, Liu Gu and Lin Chen were both very satisfied.

This evolution of the little fox was quite a complicated process, after all, the blood essence of a legendary immortal beast as the main material is not something that can be obtained at any time.

"The little fox's strength can be your trump card in this beast fighting tournament."

Liu Gu not only said this to Lin Chen, but also instructed Bai Ling not to tell anyone about it.

Bai Ling nodded very seriously.
Actually, Liu Gu didn't need to explain. Bai Ling didn't know many people in this Spirit Academy. She was mostly in the instructor's courtyard with her spirit beasts, or training.

In terms of effort, Lin Chen is somewhat inferior to her.

"You guys go back and rest first. Come back tomorrow—no, the day after tomorrow. I'll have Bai Ling send you in with the unicorn," Liu Gu said.

"Okay." Lin Chen cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your hard work, teacher."

Liu Gu simply nodded.

Whether Lin Chen said it or not, he knew that, given Lin Chen's personality, he had taken it to heart.

But once he said it, Liu Gu felt that his hard work had not been in vain.

After Lin Chen left, Bai Ling also took her spirit beast to train.

Liu Gu, however, was still savoring the little fox's evolution, muttering to himself:
"It seems it also has the potential to be a celestial beast."

In Liu Gu's view, it is inevitable that the little fox will become a mythical beast in the future.

But celestial beasts are different; only by comprehending the Great Dao can a spirit beast of this level reach that level.

Not everyone in this world can comprehend the power of the Great Dao.

Lin Chen returned to his dormitory, beaming with joy.

This time, the little fox's evolution was even more impressive than he had imagined.

Lin Chen had previously thought that being able to evolve into a four-tailed creature would be excellent.

Unexpectedly, the little fox delivered a huge surprise.

In the evening, the family had a big meal and then fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, I woke up and started packing my luggage.

This time I'll be away for almost half a year, so I'm bringing a lot of things with me.

Lin Chen also went out to buy a lot of things.

Spiritual herbs, high-grade calming pills, monster meat, etc.

These things will be useful in the long term, so they can be stored in the Beast Taming Space. Speaking of the Beast Taming Space, now that Lin Chen has become a beginner Beast Tamer, the space will be even larger.

However, since it only has a dozen or so levels, the space isn't that large.

The true qualitative change in the Beast Taming Space occurs after a Beast Tamer reaches level 40, when its area begins to expand significantly. This is the period of qualitative change for Beast Tamers.

The same applies to the talents of beast tamers; the differences become apparent only later in the game.

On the third day, Lin Chen had prepared everything and went to the mentor's academy to find Bai Ling.

"Jiaojiao, come here."

Bai Ling calls for the unicorn.

The unicorn lay there lazily, only opening its eyes groggily when it heard Bai Ling's call.

"You escort them inside," Bai Ling said.

The unicorn nodded, and just as it was about to unleash its skill, Lin Chen glanced at the Devouring Beast beside him, pondered for a moment, and then said to Bai Ling, "Bai Ling, why don't you let your Devouring Beast come in with me first?"

Bai Ling was taken aback.

Lin Chen continued, "The Red Velvet Chicken, including its cultivation and evolution, will need at least two months, or even three months. It would be a waste if it did that."

Bai Ling thought it made sense and thanked Lin Chen for thinking of her.

In fact, Lin Chen thought that most of Bai Ling's fortune was probably related to the Devouring Beast.

Since that's the case, why not borrow it first?

The other students have already gone in. They must have searched for many places and found many good springs, but they've probably all been taken.

Therefore, Lin Chen decided to bring the Devouring Beast inside.

Bai Ling turned to look at the Devouring Beast and asked, "Xiu Xiu, are you willing?"

It's clear that Bai Ling is reluctant to part with him.

Even though her two later spirit beasts have been proven to have amazing futures, the one with whom Bai Ling has the best and deepest affection is still the Devouring Beast.

For Bai Ling, the Devouring Beast is her best spirit beast, without exception.

"Qua~"

Unexpectedly, the Devouring Beast nodded and told Bai Ling that it wanted to level up quickly.

"Alright then." Bai Ling turned to look at Lin Chen and said, "Then I'll leave Xiu Xiu in your care."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely raise you to be plump and healthy," Lin Chen said.

Bai Ling nodded, then, like a loving mother, gave instructions to the Devouring Beast. Finally, the unicorn activated its unicorn...
As the spatial wormhole opened, Lin Chen, along with five spirit beasts including the Little Insect King, stepped into it.

As soon as Lin Chen stepped inside, he smelled the scent of green mud.

They landed in a swamp. It was raining. Lin Chen looked up at the sky, which was pitch black. Just as Lin Chen and the others were about to walk away, a bolt of lightning larger than a tree trunk suddenly struck down.

The little fox trembled in fright and jumped directly into Lin Chen's arms, while Little White and the others remained unperturbed.

Lin Chen shook his head helplessly.

Although the little fox has gradually grown up, it overcomes its own weaknesses in battle; its timidity is an unconscious reaction.

He comforted the little fox, looked up at the sky, and unexpectedly another bolt of lightning struck down.

"What a huge bolt of lightning!" Lin Chen exclaimed in surprise.

He had lived on Earth for so many years and had never seen such fierce lightning.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, so Lin Chen led them to find a place to take shelter. The rain was pouring down like water, which was quite terrifying.

The dampness subsided slightly after the little fox started a fire.

"The rain here is too heavy," Lin Chen thought to himself.

The rain kept falling, almost without stopping, so Lin Chen didn't see the sun all day.

The rain finally stopped as night fell.

Lin Chen went outside and took a look, then said to Xiaobai and the others, "Let's go find the spirit spring first."

Although it was night, Lin Chen did not want to linger.

According to the academy's records, this celestial beast spring has never experienced any accidents.

However, Lin Chen didn't believe that.

He asked the Devouring Beast to lead the way, but as they walked, the Devouring Beast suddenly stopped in its tracks.

Lin Chen looked around, but did not find the spiritual spring.

"What's wrong?" Lin Chen asked.

Following its line of sight, you will see a round moon.

Lin Chen was taken aback, wondering if the Devouring Beast had become nostalgic for Bai Ling after seeing the moon.
But we've only been apart for less than a day.

Lin Chen began to persuade him, but unexpectedly, the little fox also made a gurgling sound.

Lin Chen then looked up again and was immediately astonished.

Above the moon, which casts a pure white glow, seems to be reflected a giant bronze tree.
Lin Chen thought he was seeing things, but then he realized it was true.

Lin Chen felt it was somewhat unreal. The history books of Blue Star all recorded that, although in a secret realm, the sun and moon shone together.

Simply put, the sun and moon in the secret realm are the same as in reality.

In reality, Lin Chen had never seen the bronze giant tree reflected so clearly on the moon.

Lin Chen thought about the time; today seemed to be the first.

That is.
New moon.

灵院
On the day Lin Chen left, Zhang Daoren stood in front of the mountain gate, looking down.

Today is the annual freshman registration day.

Zhang Daoren repeats this kind of thing almost every year.
For him, every year he looks forward to the arrival of new students, to see if any extraordinary talents will emerge.

However, this year's new students have already failed to reach an agreement with the Beast Fighting Tournament.

I wonder if another monster like Lin Chen will appear this year.

While Zhang Daoren was deep in thought, a young man stepped forward and said politely, "Hello, Master, I'm here to register."

"Hello." Zhang Daoren nodded and asked, "Name?"

"Ning Zimo".

Master Zhang flipped through the roster and indeed found the name. He nodded and said, "The admission test will begin in five days. Don't be late."

"Yes."

Ning Ziming nodded, and when he saw Zhang Daoren sign his name, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After a year of hard work, he finally arrived at the Spirit Academy.
He knew that his brother Ning Tian was in the Spirit Academy.

He worked so hard not actually to take Ning Tian's position, but...
He was not born to the legal wife, and this was a thorn in Ning Ziming's side.

He wanted to prove that he was better than Ning Tian, ​​nothing more.

He knew very well that if he couldn't overcome Ning Tian's obstacle, it would become a lifelong demon in his heart.

After his senior brother took him to the dormitory, Ning Ziming pondered for a moment and then began to inquire:

"I wonder how many steps are there on the path to immortality for the initial entrance examination?"

“It’s pointless to compare yourself to those who came before. Compare yourself to the previous class. The previous class had a freak,” the senior student said.

How many steps?

“37,” the senior brother answered casually, “His name is Lin Chen.”

"Lin Linchen?"

Ning Ziming was taken aback, subconsciously thinking that he had misheard.

He had been away from Nine Star City for two years, so he didn't know that Lin Chen had come to the Spirit Academy.

and
Was he the first place winner in the previous competition?

Ning Ziming's eyes showed deep thought; he knew.
This time he's under a lot of pressure, after all, there are two major obstacles here.
