Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

Ten laps had exhausted all their spiritual energy!

As long as one can become a formal member of the Calamity Flame Palace, this assessment will be considered a success.

As for completing thirty laps and becoming a candidate for sainthood...

When they actually set foot on the Heart of the Crimson Lotus, they realized how far-fetched this idea was.

The red-haired girl who initially idolized the Drunken Sword Immortal was far ahead and had already completed twenty laps in the blink of an eye.

She was originally a candidate for sainthood in this year's election.

It's only natural that they could reach this level...

She narrowed her fiery red eyes slightly and murmured in thought, "If the Crimson Lotus Heart is only this powerful, I should be able to last about fifty laps... No, fifty laps isn't enough. I must complete as many laps as possible to prove my status within the Flame Palace."

"I want to participate in the next Holy Land Grand Competition!!!"

Soon.

Except for her, all the students stopped.

Two trainees completed more than twenty laps of the test, but unfortunately... they could not become candidates for sainthood if they could not complete thirty laps.

There is nothing we can do about this.

After all, the difficulty of competing for a seventh-grade holy land and becoming a candidate for holy maiden is much higher than that of an eighth-grade or ninth-grade holy land.

They had already anticipated this when they chose to enter the Palace of Calamity.

At this moment, they could only watch helplessly as the red-haired girl completed forty laps all by herself...

At this point, her physical abilities and spiritual energy were almost completely depleted.

She was only relying on her last bit of willpower to persevere and complete this assessment.

"..."

Hidden in the shadows.

While observing this scene, the senior sister from the Huoyan Palace who was leading the team also nodded secretly.

This junior really has potential!

Fortunately, three years ago... when I applied for the task of leading the newcomers, I already knew that she was the candidate for the Holy Maiden of this year.

At that time, he tried his best to please her and successfully established a special friendship with her.

However, this guy's potential is much higher than I expected!

She should be able to break the record of the Calamity Flame Palace for the past ten years, right?

Do not……

She might become one of the top ten members of the Calamity Flame Palace within a few years!

"Junior sister, considering our relationship, even if I can't become your Daoist partner, at least... we can still maintain a romantic relationship, right?" Senior sister Meimei thought to herself, hiding in the shadows.

But when she completed forty-five laps...

The Heart of Fire Lotus, suspended in mid-air, suddenly underwent a strange change.

Without warning, a wisp of blue flame, exuding an ancient tea aroma, suddenly rose from the magma below.

"Um!?"

"What's this!!!"

The incredibly rich spiritual energy instantly drew everyone's attention.

The senior sister who was hiding in the shadows didn't bother to hide herself anymore and rushed out from behind, staring in astonishment at the blue flame that covered an area of ​​several miles.

"Is this... some kind of special spiritual fire!?"

"How could it rise from below the Heart of the Fire Lotus!?"

She couldn't help but speak up to dissuade her, "Junior sister, be careful! This spiritual fire might be unusual!! The assessment is temporarily suspended!!"

"I need to notify the higher-ups of the Holy Land!"

"It's alright, senior sister."

The red-haired girl was initially taken aback.

Then she shook her head again: "This kind of flame has no lethality, it's okay, I can still continue the test!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she continued to sprint faster.

Not only that……

She could feel that this flame was full of powerful healing and restorative abilities. At this moment, the speed at which she replenished her spiritual energy far exceeded the speed at which she consumed it!

A strong sense of disbelief arose in the girl's heart.

She had a premonition that if she sprinted while bathed in the azure flame spiritual energy, her final number of laps might surpass that of the Drunken Blade Immortal, making her the weapon refiner who broke the Martial Alliance record!

She absolutely couldn't let this opportunity slip away!!

But at this moment...

Under the watchful eyes of everyone...

That beautiful blue flame gradually merged into the surrounding red flames.

In an instant, a terrifying burst of flames erupted, the boiling fire wave seemingly about to blast the Heart of the Fire Lotus apart, violently sending all the weapon refiners present flying dozens of meters away.

The flames intensified instantly!

Sensing something was wrong, the senior student leading the group immediately exclaimed, "Junior!!"

Unfortunately, it was too late!

With almost no time to react, the red-haired girl was pushed more than ten meters by the sea of ​​fire, tumbling off the petals of the Heart of the Fire Lotus and falling into the lava with a look of terror on her face.

After a few seconds.

After the blue flames dissipated...

The heart of the Fire Lotus is now completely empty.

"Oh no!!!"

"Her Highness, the candidate for Holy Maiden, is in trouble!!"

Amidst the panicked screams of the crowd, the senior sister also knelt on the ground in a daze... 8

It's all over!!!

She actually failed to protect the strongest genius in nearly ten years, allowing her junior sister to perish in the assessment.

However, I am merely the team leader, and also a high-level weapon refiner. I cannot fly or teleport, so how could I possibly fly into the lava to save people?

"..."

It's so hot!!!

They kept falling into the ocean of lava.

The red-haired girl's face was contorted with pain; she could sense that her protective spiritual energy was being rapidly evaporated.

In less than ten seconds, I will die...

As the strongest genius of the Calamity Flame Palace, am I going to die here?

Senior sister, save me!!!

The girl was terrified, but unfortunately, she couldn't utter a single complete sentence and could only fall rapidly into the lava.

The protective spiritual energy is about to disappear.

I'm going to die!!

But in that final moment...

The red-haired girl's eyes widened slightly as she realized that dozens of meters away from her... a strange figure was sitting upright in the lava.

She was a young girl wearing a blue and white Taoist robe and with long, light blue court-style hair.

Her long hair, like a mermaid's, was tied into two long pigtails.

She sat upright on a gray cloud, bathed in lava, meditating with her eyes closed.

She's a magical artifact...?

It's still human!?

The girl's face was covered in elaborate tear makeup, and her long hair and skin were covered with countless gray raindrops. Her Taoist robe was shrouded in a hazy gray rain mist.

However, there was no spirit embryo on her forehead.

Is this a super-level weapon refiner?!

Why is she cultivating inside lava?!

Before the red-haired girl could even react in shock, the blue-haired girl not far away slowly opened her sky-blue eyes.

In an instant, the surrounding magma seemed to solidify.

The blue-haired girl made a finger-snapping gesture and pointed it forward.

"Spiritual Skill: Enlightening the Vast Ocean"

"Talent - Immortal Technique"

Wow!!!

Several drops of water gushed from her fingertips.

The next second, the magma within a radius of several miles was instantly pierced by the water droplets, and the azure tornado tide suddenly covered the magma, turning it into a deep blue ocean!

After the red-haired girl came to her senses...

She was already being lifted into the air by the collar by the immortal.

She was stunned for a moment, then immediately exclaimed excitedly, "Thank you, immortal, for saving my life!!"

She had met many high-level weapon refiners before.

However, the presence and appearance of those super-level weapon refiners were simply no match for the immortal before them!

The strangely poised young girl before me is definitely an incredibly terrifying, top-tier weapon refiner!

There was silence for a while.

Nan He said gently and calmly, "Unfortunately, today is the moment when the Azure Flame erupts. Do not linger here. Leave the Spirit Forbidden Zone as soon as possible... otherwise, there will be danger."

The lingering flames of the Azure Youth Elixir can intensify the burning of spiritual energy.

If these high-level weapon refiners continue to linger here recklessly, they will soon be engulfed by the flames within the Spirit Forbidden Zone.

"Immortal, what is your name!?"

"When I become a top-tier weapon refiner in the future, I will definitely repay you!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

"You actually completed forty laps! That's amazing! The instructors of the Calamity Flame Palace will be so happy when they find out!" Senior Sister said excitedly.

After the red-haired girl came to her senses...

She actually rejoined the group once again. At this moment, the group from the Calamity Flame Palace had completed their assessment and were returning home.

"Ok?"

The red-haired girl was slightly taken aback.

Speaking of which, was she here just now?

I have a feeling that something has happened...

But I can't remember.

Forget it...

Having successfully completed forty rounds of the Crimson Lotus Heart, I'm sure I'll become a genius admired by everyone in the Calamity Flame Palace!
