Martial Universe: Starting with Lin Langtian, who crippled Lin Dong's father.

Chapter 154 Nirvana Demon Flame [4,000 words]

An invisible spiritual barrier enveloped Lin Langtian and Lin Qing'er, and then the two transformed into rainbow rays, tearing through the sea of ​​fire with lightning speed, advancing into its depths.

As Lin Langtian swept across the sea of ​​fire, his spiritual power spread out, keeping a constant watchful eye on his surroundings.

He knew how terrifying the Nirvana Burning Heaven Formation was from that stone tablet.

If it were really so easy for someone to get through, then their great reputation would be far too ridiculous.

Obviously, given the capabilities of that sectarian alliance, it's impossible for them to do such a thing.

"Um?"

Obviously.

As it turned out, Lin Langtian's prediction was not without reason.

Shortly after they entered the Nirvana Burning Heaven Formation, a slight disturbance suddenly arose from the surging Nirvana fire around them.

"Whoosh!"

The unusual movement was immediately noticed by the vigilant Lin Langtian.

With a focused gaze, one could see streaks of fire suddenly flashing from the raging sea of ​​flames.

Enveloped in the flames were small, fist-sized, crimson spheres. The violent energy emanating from these spheres caused Lin Langtian's eyes to narrow slightly.

"Nirvana Fire and Thunder!"

Lin Langtian clearly recognized the nature of these strange spheres, and his expression immediately became somewhat serious.

This Nirvana Fire Thunder is condensed from pure Nirvana energy.

However, it is extremely violent, exploding upon contact, and its power is extremely strong.

A single one of these could severely injure an ordinary Nirvana Realm expert.

If their numbers increase, even a powerful Four-Seal Heavenly Talisman Master like Lin Langtian will find it somewhat troublesome...

Clearly, the Nirvana Fire Thunder that appeared before him had reached a point where even Lin Langtian found it troublesome.

Lin Qing'er gripped the cyan longsword tightly in her hand, her beautiful eyes warily watching the Nirvana Fire Thunder that swept in from all directions. She also sensed some inexplicable danger.

"Kid, don't mess with these things."

"There are countless Nirvana Fire Thunders within this Nirvana Fire Array. If an explosion is triggered, it could cause a chain reaction."

"When thousands or tens of thousands of them come crashing down, let alone your strength as a Four-Seal Heavenly Talisman Master, even if you survive another tribulation of wind and thunder, you will still be in a sorry state."

At this moment, the little ferret darted out and warned.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian frowned. If he didn't deal with these Nirvana Fire Thunders, he clearly wouldn't be able to advance any further.

"Idiot, what are you doing with your Devouring Ancestral Symbol? No matter how violent these Nirvana Fire and Thunder are, they are still condensed from Nirvana Qi. As long as it is energy, the Devouring Ancestral Symbol can devour them."

Seeing Lin Langtian in a difficult position, Xiao Diao couldn't help but curse.

These words were like a wake-up call, and Lin Langtian suddenly realized that he had forgotten that no matter how violent the Nirvana Fire and Thunder was, it was still Nirvana energy at its core...

Moreover, because he was worried about being recognized, he had deliberately reduced the frequency of using the Devouring Ancestral Symbol.

I forgot about it for a moment...

"laugh!"

Having found a solution, Lin Langtian didn't hesitate. With a thought, a black hole spread out from behind him.

The power of devouring then surged forth, and the Nirvana Fire Thunder that had swept in from the surrounding sea of ​​fire roared past and finally shot into the black hole.

"Bang bang bang!"

From within the black hole, a faint, muffled sound could be heard.

Lin Langtian's internal energy and blood were also slightly churning.

However, immediately afterward, powerful and vigorous Nirvana energy poured into his body from the black hole.

As such a surging aura of rebirth poured in, a look of surprise flashed across Lin Langtian's face.

This absorption rate is much faster than cultivating in the Dan River.

Lin Langtian and his companion swiftly swept through the sea of ​​fire, while the Nirvana Fire Thunder that kept shooting towards them was all sucked into the black hole, eventually transforming into rolling Nirvana Qi, flowing through Lin Langtian's limbs and bones, tempering his body from the inside out.

This scene was both spectacular and terrifying.

If someone else were to see this, they would surely be dumbfounded.

Even people of Liu Bai's level would only dare to proceed cautiously and slowly in such places.

Who else would dare to push their speed to the limit like Lin Langtian, and run even faster under the bombardment of so many Nirvana Fire and Thunder?

Lin Langtian's dash lasted for about ten minutes.

But the sea of ​​fire still showed no end in sight.

Along the way, he absorbed a large amount of Nirvana Fire and Lightning, and now his body felt slightly swollen.

Even with his physical strength, he couldn't completely absorb that immense Nirvana energy in a short time.

However, his dash did not continue until he reached the end of the sea of ​​fire.

Perhaps it was because of his massive absorption that he finally triggered something even more powerful within the Nirvana Burning Heaven Formation...

"laugh!"

Lin Langtian's fleeing figure suddenly froze.

The abrupt transition between extreme motion and extreme stillness can be slightly visually uncomfortable.

But Lin Langtian paid no attention to any of that; his gaze was fixed intently on what lay ahead.

There, the fire of Nirvana burns fiercely.

Within that flame of rebirth, a pale black flame was quietly suspended.

The flames writhed and twisted, as if they possessed sentience, sometimes transforming into various beast shapes and even human faces, which was extremely eerie.

Lin Langtian stared blankly at the pale black flame, and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

"This is... the Nirvana Demon Flame..."

Nirvana Flame.

It is also a flame formed from the condensation of Nirvana energy.

It's just that it's countless times more powerful than ordinary Nirvana Fire.

This flame is not scorching, but it possesses a strange melting power.

Enveloped in such flames, even a powerful Nirvana Golden Body could be melted into a pool of blood.

Generally speaking, this kind of Nirvana Flame only appears after the fifth Nirvana Tribulation.

This flame originates from within; if one is not careful, the meridians and bones within the body will be quietly melted.

At that time, people may not look much different.

But inside his body, it is probably already completely empty.

Flesh and blood, bones—all will cease to exist…

It was extremely terrifying and bizarre.

This is something that even those powerful individuals qualified to attempt the fifth or subsequent Nirvana Tribulation fear and tremble at the mere mention of it.

Therefore, when Lin Langtian suddenly saw the Nirvana Demon Flame appear in front of him, his expression gradually turned ugly.

The black Nirvana Demon Flame hovered in front of Lin Langtian, the black flames rising slightly, their constantly changing shapes resembling a demon baring its fangs and claws, sending chills down one's spine.

Lin Langtian's expression was solemn, but he dared not make the slightest movement.

He knew that if he moved again at this moment, the Nirvana Demon Flame in front of him would immediately pounce on him.

He simply couldn't guarantee that his current physical body could withstand the melting power of the Nirvana Demon Flame...

Unfortunately, his physical body has always been his weakness.

Even though I've now achieved Nirvana Golden Body, it's still nothing special...

"You're really unlucky..."

On Lin Langtian's shoulder, Little Marten also looked at the ball of black flame and shrugged helplessly.

Behind Lin Langtian.

Lin Qing'er was also on high alert, with faint cyan sword energy surging on her body surface, her beautiful eyes warily fixed on the floating Nirvana Demon Flame.

"This is not the time for making sarcastic remarks..."

Lin Langtian's lips twitched, and he lowered his voice consciously, showing that he was extremely wary of the Nirvana Demon Flame.

"I never expected that such Nirvana Demon Flame would be born in this Nirvana Burning Heaven Formation. Heh, although this thing is dangerous, it is also a good thing. If you can control it, it will definitely be a trump card."

Little Marten stared at the Nirvana Demon Flame, and suddenly said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian's face twitched involuntarily.

If the Nirvana Demon Flame were truly so easy to control, those powerful individuals qualified to attempt the fifth or later Nirvana Tribulation wouldn't react as if their parents had died the moment they heard its name…

Moreover, his current achievements are due to his ability to foresee the future; it's hard to say how strong his luck really is...

At least he can't be allowed to act recklessly...

Even someone like him, who possesses the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, wouldn't dare to devour such a thing casually.

Who knows if this stuff will be completely digested?

If it were to actually penetrate even a little bit into one's body, one careless mistake could result in the entire interior of the body being melted away and nothing remaining.

At that time, it was truly worse than death...

It's no different from eating a grenade...

Of course, if it can truly be controlled as Xiao Diao said, then it would indeed be a trump card.

No one ever complains about having too many cards up their sleeve...

"This thing can't be dealt with using the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, but you don't only have the Devouring Ancestral Symbol as your only divine artifact..."

The little sable chuckled.

While the Devouring Ancestral Symbol was powerful, Lin Langtian was simply too weak to unleash its true power.

"The Ancestral Stone?"

Lin Langtian was stunned for a moment, then immediately came to his senses. The only things he could call divine objects were probably the Devouring Ancestral Symbol and the Ancestral Stone...

"Um."

The little sable nodded, and then with a flick of its paw, a gentle white light shone from Lin Langtian's palm.

"Whoosh!"

Just as Little Marten summoned the Ancestral Stone, the Nirvana Demon Flame in front of him seemed to have sensed something.

The flames immediately surged forth and roared out.

It hurtled towards Lin Langtian with lightning speed.

Upon seeing Nirvana Demon Flame's actions, cold sweat immediately broke out on Lin Langtian's forehead. With a thought, his powerful spiritual energy roared out, quickly forming a thick spiritual barrier in front of him.

Although he remained vigilant, he felt much more at ease.

This reaction proves that the ancestral stone does indeed have an effect.

"Hiss!"

however.

This mental barrier, strong enough to withstand the fierce bombardment of a Tri-Yuan Nirvana Realm expert, proved as fragile as tofu under that ball of black flames.

With just a single contact, the mental barrier melted away at an astonishing speed, like snow meeting a flame.

At this moment, Lin Langtian personally experienced the terrifying power of the Nirvana Demon Flame.

"Little Mink, are you done yet?"

Lin Langtian retreated rapidly, his spiritual power surging as he continuously blocked the oncoming Nirvana Demon Flame.

No matter what methods he used, the Nirvana Demon Flame still rushed over at an overwhelming speed, constantly closing the distance between the two sides.

So he hurriedly shouted.

Little Marten ignored his shouts and instead focused intently on activating the stone talisman.

After a while.

While Lin Langtian was busy dealing with the Nirvana Demon Flame.

Then it moved its claws, and a rune formed from a gentle, milky-white light suddenly burst out from the stone rune.

"call out!"

The white runes flashed past, like a net, and enveloped the Nirvana Demon Flame.

"Hiss!"

The two collided in an instant.

However, upon contact, the Nirvana Demon Flame, which had previously been devastating, did not reappear.

Although the white runes were flashing continuously, the momentum of the Nirvana Demon Flame was strangely suppressed.

"seal up!"

Seeing this, the ferret's eyes flashed, and it began to paw at the ground.

The white runes immediately spread out, like a seal, firmly enveloping the entire ball of Nirvana Demon Flame.

As the Nirvana Demon Flame was enveloped by the white runes, the violent fluctuations that had been surging on it gradually calmed down.

Clearly, the energy of this stone talisman was able to suppress the melting power of the Nirvana Demon Flame.

With a flick of its claws, the Nirvana Demon Flame, enveloped in white runes, slowly descended.

Finally, under Lin Langtian's extremely vigilant gaze, it hovered in front of him.

Lin Langtian stared at the black flame in front of him, and only after seeing that there was no unusual movement did he secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

The process of subduing the Nirvana Demon Flame was clearly smoother than he had imagined.

"With this ancestral stone seal, it's enough to suppress this Nirvana Demon Flame. Kid, you're quite lucky."

Little Mink said smugly.

Lin Langtian nodded. This thing only appears after one attempts to break through to the third Nirvana Tribulation, so its power is self-evident.

If used properly, it can indeed be a killer weapon.

Playing with the Nirvana Demon Flame sealed by the stone runes, he then flicked his finger, and a wisp of black flame split out from it.

"Whoosh!"

As soon as this wisp of black flame appeared, the surrounding Nirvana Flames suddenly surged even more intensely.

Subtly, Lin Langtian's body seemed to merge with the sea of ​​fire.

"Walk!"

Lin Langtian smiled and activated the Nirvana Demon Flame to envelop him and Lin Qing'er. Then, as if merging with the sea of ​​fire, they silently swept past.

That speed was so much faster than before.

This place was originally an ocean of Nirvana Fire, and this Nirvana Demon Flame was even more powerful than Nirvana Fire.

With its presence, the fluctuations that were enough to ignite the Nirvana Qi within a person's body were completely blocked outside Lin Langtian's body.

Moreover, it was as if they were merging together, and Lin Langtian was like a fish in water in it.

It flies by silently, so that even if it passes close to people, no one would notice.
