Chapter 707: Lord of Fire

Jiang Yun and the Firebird heard the sudden shout.

The Firebird rolled its eyes, showing impatience, and ignored it.

Jiang Yun, who was carefully devouring flames, was slightly surprised.

He didn’t expect someone else to appear at this moment, and if he guessed correctly, it should be a cultivator.

Even though the fire rain had stopped, the lingering high temperature in the air was unbearable for ordinary people.

However, the content of the shout left Jiang Yun puzzled.

Lord of Fire!

Did it refer to the Firebird busy devouring flames?

Jiang Yun didn’t want to pay attention to the shouting at first, but now his clothes were burnt to ashes, and he was standing there completely naked, which was not a good look.

So, reluctantly, Jiang Yun had to temporarily stop devouring flames and disappeared into the ground, quietly monitoring the movements on the surface with his divine sense.

After a while, more than ten humans appeared a few hundred feet away from this area, and when Jiang Yun saw them, his eyes lit up.

These people were indeed all cultivators, and the weakest among them were at the Tao Spiritual Realm level.

The leader, a thin man, had even reached the Earth Protection Realm.

At this moment, these over ten cultivators stood a few hundred feet away, obviously reluctant to move forward, but kept calling out, "Lord of Fire, Lord of Fire!"

Upon their call, the firebird finally stopped devouring, turned around, and proudly walked towards the group of cultivators.

At this moment, the firebird, with its head held high and majestic steps, emitted a noble aura, completely different from its previous image of entangling lizards and devouring flames.

Naturally, Jiang Yun could be sure that this firebird was the Lord of Fire mentioned by the cultivators.

But he became more and more puzzled. Although the Firebird was not afraid of flames, its strength was only equivalent to the early stage of the Tao Spiritual Realm. How could it let a group of human cultivators whose strength far exceeded it address it as Lord Fire God?

Finally, the Firebird walked to a spot about twenty feet in front of the crowd of cultivators, stopped, lifted its head high, and gazed up at the sky.

Its demeanor was much like that of a formidable expert who felt superior, which indeed fit the title of "Lord Fire God."

Among the group of cultivators, a man from the Earth Protection Realm immediately stepped forward, raised his hands, and held three black objects the size of longan fruits.

Jiang Yun recognized them immediately as Beast Cores.

In the Mountain-Sea World, when a fierce beast reaches the seventh rank, it may form a Beast Core in its body. The higher the rank of the fierce beast, the higher the grade of the Beast Core.

For human cultivators, Beast Cores are essential materials for refining some elixirs. However, for beasts, Beast Cores are what they use to enhance their strength.

Upon seeing the Beast Cores in the man’s hands, the Firebird, though still trying to hold its head high, involuntarily glanced at the Beast Cores with its eyes that were looking at the sky.

Even Jiang Yun could clearly see the slight trembling of its throat, as if it was swallowing saliva.

"This Firebird not only loves to eat flames, but also enjoys eating Beast Cores!"

"These cultivators clearly came to offer Beast Cores to the Firebird, it must not be in vain, they must have a request!"

Jiang Yun quietly continued to watch with a new thought in his mind.

The thin man carefully placed the Beast Core on the ground, then lowered his head and took a step back.

The Firebird clearly couldn’t control its hunger any longer, it suddenly opened its mouth and with a strong pull, swallowed all three Beast Cores.

With a contented look on its face, the Firebird used its beak to groom itself, then a long flame floated down from its body.

After leaving the Firebird’s body, the flame transformed into a red feather and gracefully landed in the hands of the thin man.

Holding the feather, the man and the people behind him looked ecstatic and respectfully said to the Firebird, "Thank you, Great Lord of Fire!"

Then, maintaining their respectful demeanor, the group retreated with the feather until they were thousands of feet away, then they each picked up their pace.

Jiang Yun, who saw everything, naturally understood that the purpose of these cultivators appearing was to exchange a Beast Core for a Firebird feather.

However, he still couldn’t understand what use this feather had!

With many doubts, Jiang Yun quickly took out a piece of clothing from his storage device and put it on. Then, he decisively chased after the group of people under the ground.

Although the group of people were cultivators and not weak, they clearly did not dare to casually use spirit qi, so their speed was not very fast.

In an instant, Jiang Yun caught up with them, just about to appear from underground when he suddenly heard their conversation.

"This adventure is finally worth it. I knew that where there is a rain of fireballs, the Lord of Fire would definitely appear!"

"Great, now that we have this feather of the Lord of Fire, one of us can enter the Reincarnation Cave!"

"Let the Tenth elder go this time. The poison in his body is already saturated, if it’s not removed soon, his cultivation will likely be completely destroyed."

Listening to the conversation of these cultivators, Jiang Yun’s doubts gradually had an answer.

The Firebird feather can lead these people to a place called Reincarnation Cave.

Reincarnation Cave can help them get rid of the poison in their bodies!

Understanding this, Jiang Yun abruptly stopped, gave up following them, and turned towards where the Firebird was located.

By swallowing a bit of flame just now, Jiang Yun was able to confirm that his idea of using the power of the soul to nurture the Fire Tao Spirit could actually come true.

However, he needed to be able to regularly swallow these flames in order to gradually strengthen his resistance.

Even though Jiang Yun could easily predict that the fireball rain would not only happen once, but would occur again every now and then.

But he couldn’t predict the specific locations and times they would appear.

But the conversations of those cultivators made Jiang Yun realize that the Firebird should know.

In other words, as long as you follow the Firebird, you will be able to encounter the fireball rain again, and even multiple times!

When Jiang Yun returned to that area, most of the flames on the ground had already gone out, with only a few scattered piles still burning.

The firebird had not left, and was still hopping around, swallowing flames.

Jiang Yun also didn’t hold back, he found a flame to continue devouring, but his divine sense was firmly locked onto the firebird.

As Jiang Yun appeared again, the firebird immediately showed a wary look in its eyes, and continued to hurry to devour the remaining flames.

So, the man and the bird, ignoring each other, were busy swallowing flames until all the flames were completely extinguished, then Jiang Yun finally sighed in relief.

Even though he didn’t devour many flames, the process of devouring them made him feel like he was at death’s door.

The danger level far exceeded the time he devoured the Li Fire in the sacred land of the Snow Clan.

He also realized that the true reason he could devour these flames was because of the strand of Li Fire that had long existed within him.

And his life fire was much stronger than that of other cultivators.

Next, Jiang Yun looked at the firebird, smiled, and politely asked, "Lord of Fire, can we make a deal?"
