In the world of martial arts, one works tirelessly to attain enlightenment.

Chapter 155, Fire Clan, Strange People

In the wilderness, inside a makeshift cave.

Lin Ran sat cross-legged in the air, surrounded by four items.

Gold coins, jade pendants, keys, and the Book of the Sea.

They are the condensation and evolution of the four basic attributes of spiritual energy: earth, fire, wind, and water, and also the corresponding set of rules.

It's not fully formed yet. Each time it's used, it consumes the power of the corresponding attribute, and the effect is only the effect corresponding to the total amount of spiritual energy used.

After breaking through to the Rule Realm, by borrowing the power of the rules, the four items can be completely condensed into their final form, and then they can be used according to their respective methods without being restricted by spiritual energy.

Lin Ran brushed over the four items one by one, finally grasping the translucent gold coin.

The other three items entered his dantian and quietly improved within the spiritual energy of their corresponding attributes.

Earth - Luck.

Gold coins are a manifestation of earth energy, and can also be called the embodiment of rules.

The only effect is a temporary boost to real luck!

Suddenly, the spirit shield was struck.

Lin Ran removed the spiritual energy shield and the energy shield, and saw the Spirit Lord's anxious expression.

"Brother Lin, it seems like demons from the Demon Empire are chasing us."

"It's okay, I'm here."

Lin Ran touched the Spirit Master's hair and transferred a wisp of earth spiritual energy to him.

The latter calmed down, and her expression involuntarily revealed a look of intoxication, with a faint blush appearing, as if she were drunk.

Then, seemingly unconsciously, she took a step forward, hugged Lin Ran tightly, and whispered something.

Lin Ran was slightly taken aback, not having heard the Spirit Master's words clearly.

Just as she was about to ask, the Spirit Master suddenly came to her senses, looked up and saw Lin Ran's questioning gaze. Her face immediately turned red, and she flashed behind Jian Linglong, lowering her head and not daring to look at Lin Ran.

"?"

Lin Ran temporarily put aside the strange behavior of the Spirit Master.

He vaguely sensed the crisis the Spirit Lord had spoken of, and a strange sense of dread enveloped him.

So he grasped the gold coin.

"Activate true luck."

The earth's spiritual energy was instantly close, the coin bounced and made a crisp sound, the translucent gold coin almost completely transparent, and disappeared into the dantian.

Lin Ran felt that the faint sense of unease had disappeared.

At the same time, another piece of information emerged.

Luckily, it only lasted for twelve hours, after which things will return to normal.

The Spirit Lord also looked over shyly.

"Captain, the crisis is over."

"Leave here."

Lin Ran made a decisive move, sending Jian Linglong back to the spiritual space, and carrying the sword light that the Spirit Master had transformed into, rushing towards the border area between the two empires.

On the way, he was still thinking about the effect of true luck. When he noticed that he flew over a patrol team from the Demon Empire without them noticing, he knew the effect.

There was a seventh-rank member in that patrol team!

However, as he passed by, the seventh-tier demon suddenly sighed and began to drift off into thought.

Therefore, he flew over the sky without being noticed by the other party at all!

So lucky!

Lin Ran felt that she understood it.

The luck lasted only twelve hours, and Lin Ran continued without stopping, alternating between the three spiritual energies of fire, wind, and water.

When the effects of True Luck ended, I was completely out of the influence range of the two great empires, unless they sent superhumans to hunt me down, but that was unlikely.

The moment the effect ends.

Lin Ran felt her body sink slightly, as if some kind of shackles were binding her.

Then a chilling aura appeared instantly, but for some reason it suddenly disappeared.

After continuing for a while and confirming that the feeling of being watched had disappeared, Lin Ran slowed down.

The spirit in his arms rubbed his eyes and yawned.

"Captain, where are we?"

"I don't know either."

Spirit Master: "?"

She immediately perked up and subconsciously looked left and right, only to find everything completely unfamiliar.

Lin Ran pinched her cheek, her smile radiant.

"Just kidding."

"Captain~"

The Spirit Lord was speechless and rolled his eyes.

Lin Ran took out a map and confirmed the location after comparing it with the map.

Far from the two great empires, the remnants of the Sword Tomb cannot complete their mission in a short time. They still need to rely on annihilating the alien races to obtain the opportunity to deduce the Mother Realm, thereby improving their cultivation, and then kill their way back.

After searching, Lin Ran chose a small clan with a maximum level of only five.

"That's it, let's go."

……

One day later.

The two arrived at their destination, a mountain range full of jagged rocks. Beneath the mountain range lived a race that had lived in magma for many years.

Unlike the Fire Spirits, they rely on magma to survive, so their upper limit is only the fifth rank.

After a brief observation, Lin Ran found the entrance, picked up the Spirit Master, and jumped down.

"Walk."

Upon entering the magma, a layer of fire elemental energy appeared out of thin air, forming a barrier that kept the intense heat at bay.

The Spirit Master frowned, disliking the intense spiritual energy here; she preferred the wood-attribute type of spiritual energy.

Seeing this, Lin Ran separated a strand of earth spiritual energy to wrap around the spirit master, whose complexion immediately improved a lot.

After penetrating deep into the magma.

The Spirit Lord observed the traces of spiritual energy remaining in the magma and pointed out the location of the Fire Clan.

Lin Ran followed the direction indicated and soon entered a giant underground cavern.

There was a layer of power outside the void, blocking the magma, but the fire elemental energy in this space was more concentrated than that in the magma, carrying a faint burning aura.

The void is vast, stretching as far as the eye can see, mostly a desolate area, with a city vaguely visible in the distance.

As Lin Ran landed with the Spirit Master and was about to move forward, she suddenly looked to her left.

On the left is a small earthen mound, the soil on which twists and turns in mid-air to reveal a person.

"?"

Lin Ran was stunned for a moment. After careful observation, she realized that the other party was indeed human, not some kind of alien race similar to humans.

The other party was also observing, seemingly trying to confirm their identity.

Then it quickly approached, its cultivation level being the tenth level of the lower-level Divine Fire Realm, barely touching the edge of the middle-level Divine Fire Realm.

"Are you the only one who came?"

"That's what the other person said."

Lin Ran touched her chin, feeling that the other party must be carrying out some kind of plan.

"I'm not the person you're looking for; I just happened to be passing by."

"Password correct. Here's the item. My mission is complete. The rest of the people are in the city."

Unexpectedly, the person threw a red crystal at him, then shot into the sky, passed through the barrier, and entered the magma, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Lin Ran controlled her spiritual energy, making the crystal float in front of her, speechless at the other party's recklessness.

However, since they were all human, there was no indication of malice.

The red crystal is crystal clear and has a unique energy flow inside. The flow path is fixed, which seems to be some kind of model.

"Can you tell what its function is?"

"This thing... looks like an embryo?"

The Spirit Lord observed for a long time, then frowned and spoke.

Lin Ran was taken aback. After careful observation, she found that the spiritual model in the crystal was indeed lively and full of spirit.

He stroked his chin, guessing that this might be the crystal from which the Fire Clan was born, or rather, that the Fire Clan was born from this crystal.

At this moment, several powerful auras suddenly appeared in the distance and rapidly approached the place.
