C349 Heavenly Flamingo
C349 Heavenly Flamingo
It had to be known that Flamingo's intelligence was not low. Even if they met with danger, they could warn Chen Yu immediately. Through the special connection they had with Chen Yu, they could alert Chen Yu. However, there were no warnings at all.
The lake of fire in front of him was not something the current him could step foot into. Furthermore, he was unable to fly on his own, so he could only watch on helplessly as he circled around the lake of fire.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, two hours had passed. Flames surged in the lake, and flames soared from time to time. The scene was shocking, but Chen Yu was not in the mood to appreciate it.
Without the Flamingo, Chen Yu's strength would drop greatly. At most, he would be on par with the Outer Sect disciples in the eighth level of Heavenly Dipper Realm, and would not be able to compete with the warriors in the ninth level of Heavenly Astral Stage, nor would he be able to contend with Du Jueqing!
With how many enemies Chen Yu had, when the Star Soul was hibernating with the ice fish and Spiritual Soul, and when the Spiritual Soul lost its Flamingo, Chen Yu was no different from having one of his arms chopped off.
Therefore, even if he knew that he could only wait, Chen Yu had no choice but to wait here.
At the very least, he had to confirm what caused the Flamingo to disappear so mysteriously. Chen Yu did not believe that the thing that caused the Flamingo to disappear so suddenly would not reveal itself.
Several hours later, Chen Yu calmed down a little. He walked around the lake of fire and continued to observe the nine dragon pillars.
However, this time, Chen Yu didn't dare to be so distracted. He had always paid attention to the lake's flowing lava.
In this underground cave, Chen Yu was unable to determine how much time had passed. He was extremely anxious and annoyed, and he forcefully exercised his mental calmness a few times. However, he was unable to maintain his calmness for too long each time.
Chen Yu waited for three days amidst the repeated emotions.
Three days later, Chen Yu was completely unable to calm himself down. He couldn't help but launch an attack at the lake of fire.
There was no point in doing this other than venting his frustration. However, Chen Yu couldn't control himself and attacked mercilessly. He was almost splashed by the lava several times.
After venting for a long time, at a certain moment, Chen Yu suddenly felt his heart throb.
Then, Chen Yu suddenly realized that there was a clear connection between his spirit and the Flamingo.
Chen Yu was surprised for a moment and then overjoyed. He instinctively looked towards the middle of the two copper pillars in the middle of the lake.
Accompanying the violent fluctuations of flame and magma, an extremely hot aura appeared from that location. Abruptly, lava filled the sky and shot down like rain. Raging flames sprung up dozens of meters into the air, enveloping the entire surface of the lake.
Amidst the rolling flames, the light was deep and bright. The aura that it gave off made Chen Yu feel very familiar, it was from the Flamingo.
However, Chen Yu felt that the Flamingo's willpower had more than doubled. This made Chen Yu very suspicious.
Without waiting for Chen Yu to think, the flame kept moving. The lake of lava started to surge as if there were huge waves lurking inside. It could surge up at any time and swallow everything in its path.
The spiritual light rapidly flew towards Chen Yu. Its speed was surprisingly fast. Everywhere it passed, the lava was like raging waves, unceasingly surging with frightening power. Chen Yu could not help but feel a little apprehensive.
After reaching a distance of forty to fifty meters away, Chen Yu saw clearly, in the middle of the sea of fire, a flaming bird was flapping its wings, its entire body was covered in flames, it had a long neck and an elegant body, like a phoenix bathed in fire, it contained an extremely deep fire attribute aura.
What made Chen Yu even more surprised was that in the eyes of the Flamingo, the two fiery red points of light were exceptionally strong, like a pair of real fire pupils!
If not for the connection between the Spiritual Soul and its owner, Chen Yu would not have recognized the Flamingo.
As if sensing Chen Yu's surprise, the Flamingo shook its wings and raised its slender neck, letting out a hiss.
Chen Yu was stunned by the sound. This was because, unlike before, the Flamingo's roar this time had a clear and melodious sound, causing Chen Yu's ear drums to tremble. He was caught off guard and even his body staggered a little.
And at this moment, Chen Yu clearly saw a complacent expression on the Flamingo's face. Chen Yu was sure that he did not see wrong, that was the feeling. It was very real, very anthropomorphic.
"Master …" After a while, when Chen Yu finally regained his senses, two words appeared clearly in Chen Yu's mind.
Chen Yu couldn't help but be stunned again.
"Master, I'm very powerful!" The Flamingo once again let out a real whistle. When this whistle rang out, the sea of fire gave rise to waves of fire, forming layers of flowing waves of fire.
Seeing the Flamingo's body become real and its expression become clever, Chen Yu subconsciously swallowed his saliva, this was too unbelievable.
When a type of Spiritual Soul could clearly call out its master, it meant that the Spiritual Soul's intelligence was not inferior to humans. When the Spiritual Soul's intelligence had reached this level, even if the Spiritual Soul was not Heaven Rank, it was still extraordinary.
As for Spiritual Soul, their original intelligence should be relatively lower, and they definitely could not be compared to the Spirit Connecting Vine that had an extraordinary origin, let alone that Ice Fish Spiritual Soul.
However, it was this Spiritual Soul that came from the worst of the lot that was a step ahead of them right now. Its intelligence could be considered to have been fully opened, and it should have already broken through its Heaven Rank.
It's much harder to advance into a Spiritual Soul than it is to advance to a martial artist through cultivation. It requires a lot more luck and not even one in ten thousand to advance to the Heaven Rank. That's why Chen Yu found it hard to believe.
An extreme environment of earth fire was naturally conducive to the growth of fire attribute Spiritual Soul, but such growth required a very long period of time.
"Master?"
"Where have you been these past few days?" Chen Yu asked.
The Flamingo understood Chen Yu's words and shrunk its neck. After flapping its wings, it suddenly dove into the sea of lava.
The lava was viscous, and the Flamingo that had already turned into substance dove down and splashed out.
Chen Yu hurriedly dodged. Otherwise, if he was hit by the frighteningly hot lava, he wouldn't feel good about it.
He went in and out for a few seconds, then the Flamingo came out again.
The idea that appeared in Chen Yu's heart was very clear, "Below this, there's a big guy calling me down!"
"Big guy?" Chen Yu couldn't help but be surprised. After thinking for a while, he couldn't help but reveal a shocked expression.
"Big guy, so big, so strong!"
"What does it look like?" Chen Yu asked as he calmed his mind.
"It's very big, very big," the fluctuation of her thoughts became incoherent, but the Flamingo was completely unable to express it clearly. The flames in the eye sockets flickered even more deeply. The Flamingo's large body suddenly shrank and turned into nothingness, its seemingly solid body turning illusory once again.
Then, the illusory Flamingo's body enlarged and began to change its shape. From illusory to real, it turned into a strange Giant Beast.
The had a lion head, deer horns, tiger eyes, an ogre body, and a body covered in fiery-red scales. Just in terms of form, this Giant Beast had a certain kind of unknown existence that made Chen Yu's heart involuntarily tremble, feeling that this kind of Giant Beast was like something that the heavens gave him, something he could not easily offend.
The Flamingo's transformation only lasted for a moment before it stopped. Its body turned illusory quickly and then returned back to its original state.
"Is this how it looks like?" Chen Yu asked.
"Mhmm!" The Flamingo answered hurriedly.
Chen Yu pondered, he couldn't find a corresponding Demonic Beast in his memories.
After pausing for a moment, Chen Yu suddenly came to his senses. He thought of the key question and said: "It's below, why isn't it coming up?"
The Flamingo shook its head and thought: "It can't get on!"
Couldn't get on? Chen Yu was startled. "Why?"
The Flamingo revealed a confused expression.
"You broke through the Heaven Rank because of it?" Chen Yu began to understand the situation. Although this Flamingo had opened up its wisdom, its intelligence was only comparable to a three to five-year-old child. It definitely would not exceed this level!
The Flamingo nodded, and said: "It caught me, so I can't escape. Then, it put something into my body, and I suddenly became very powerful."
Chen Yu frowned.
While he was deep in thought, the lake of fire rippled. Beneath the nine bronze pillars, the blazing lava suddenly began to surge rapidly. Then, one after another, the lava began to flow upward, following the copper pillars and spreading upwards.
The entire lake of lava radiated with an extremely violent aura and crazily surged like a surging tide. The endless lava smacked against the nine enormous copper pillars, seemingly wanting to melt them and swallow them whole.
However, the nine bronze pillars still stood tall and unmoving, even though the bodies of the pillars had already become fiery red.
Chen Yu couldn't help but back away. His eyes lit up and he revealed a pondering expression.
"Shua! Shua!" Right at this moment, nine scarlet spiritual energies shot out from the lava. Each spiritual energy carried a terrifying and deep pressure, causing Chen Yu to tremble.
The nine beams of light were like living creatures, flying out of the lake and landing at the bottom of the nine bronze pillars, circling around the copper pillars. Everywhere they passed, the bronze pillars would burn, and the burning flames would burn everything in the world.
Chen Yu clearly felt all the blazing fire spirits converging towards the nine bronze pillars. This way, the temperature of the surrounding area that Chen Yu was at would no longer be that high.
However, right at this moment, symbols began to flicker on the nine carved dragon bronze pillars. The copper pillars that seemed to be about to melt due to the shock of the molten liquid seemed to turn into sea deity iron.
Those sculptures of dragons seemed to come to life. The might and pressure of each dragon combined together to suppress the natural enemies. They wanted to silence all fluctuations!
At this moment, a strand of red spiritual light flew out in Chen Yu's direction.
In the midst of Chen Yu's shock, the Flamingo's form rapidly turned illusory and it actually went to meet it.
Chen Yu's expression could not help but tremble, his heartstrings were taut, and the Fire Control Token was already starting to be aroused by him.
