Chapter 206: Acquisition, Cooperation, Fire Bead
Looking at the Fallen Heart Flame jumping nimbly on his fingertips, Lin Yuan smiled lightly. With a thought, the shape of the Fallen Heart Flame changed accordingly, switching between the shapes of dragon, phoenix, wolf, leopard, lion, tiger, and dragon at will.

Seeing this, Heavenly Fire Lord sighed: "Your cultivation, your fire control skills... are truly amazing."

At this moment, he also understood Lin Yuan's absolute control over the Fallen Heart Flame.

“Haha!” Lin Yuan chuckled and waved his hand casually, “Senior, you are too kind. This cultivation level that is not even Dou Zong is not worth mentioning. As for controlling fire, it is just some basic skills for an alchemist.”

"Sure enough, this young man is an alchemist!" Hearing Lin Yuan's explanation, Venerable Tianhuo nodded secretly.

Venerable Tianhuo was not surprised at all. At such an age and with such high level of cultivation, he had such attainments in controlling fire. It would be strange if he was not an alchemist. He was most likely a high-level alchemist.

After taking another quick look at Lin Yuan's young face, he could be sure that the young man in front of him was about twenty years old.

Thinking of himself when he was twenty years old, Venerable Skyfire's eyes showed some nostalgia. He shook his head and said with emotion: "My friend, you are too modest. The achievements you have made at this age are enough to amaze the world."

Lin Yuan did not continue to be modest, but his eyes fell on the invisible flame of the young body.

Following Lin Yuan's gaze, Skyfire Venerable also looked at the young Fallen Heart Flame and said calmly, "Are you also interested in this Fallen Heart Flame?"

"Yes! For me, the more strange fires the better." Lin Yuan said frankly.

After a moment's silence, Lin Yuan straightened his expression and said seriously: "I have a very good impression of you, senior, so I won't speak in an official tone. I think our communication can be more frank..."

"Senior, you can't maintain your current state for long. Give me this strange fire and I will take you away from here, how about that?

"Frank communication is exactly what I want." Skyfire Venerable nodded and said thoughtfully: "You can have it if you want it. But in addition to taking me out, you need to do me a favor. Of course, I will give you a corresponding reward."

"Please speak, senior." Lin Yuan's heart moved and he said with a smile.

“Since you are an alchemist, you must know how to repair a damaged soul, right?” Skyfire Venerable chuckled.

"Of course, I have a lot of experience in dealing with soul-related issues."

Lin Yuan nodded and said confidently: "If it is a matter of repairing the soul, I can agree to it now."

Upon hearing this, Venerable Skyfire was immediately overjoyed and said, "Haha, that's great! This is for you as a reward..." As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a snow-white storage ring flew out from the bones and fell into his hand.

Then, he took out a pale white scroll from the ring and threw it to Lin Yuan.

"This is my famous fighting skill, the 'Five-wheel Fire Separation Technique'. Haha, it's not quite right to call it a fighting skill. It should be called a fire control technique. As long as you can help me repair it, it will be yours."

"If you doubt my sincerity, you can take the scroll first. When you find that there is no problem, it will not be too late to help me repair my soul."

Lin Yuan took the scroll with bird and animal patterns on it, suppressed his excitement, and slowly spread it out.

"The five-wheel method of leaving fire, the method of controlling fire, is divided into five levels, which can be distinguished according to the shape of animals, such as wolf, leopard, lion, tiger, and dragon. Each level has its own fire spirit. The method is completed and the five beasts gather together. It can be formed into a five-wheel Lihuo Formation, which is so powerful that it can steam the sea and burn the sky."

"If four of the five beasts are condensed by strange fire, the power of this technique is comparable to that of heaven-level fighting skills!"

"What a great technique!" Lin Yuan exclaimed in praise.

The fire control technique of the Five Wheels Fire Separation Method is extremely sophisticated, far surpassing the fire control technique of the Flame Art.

The Tianyuan Fire Control Method, a fire control method created and updated by Lin Yuan, may not be inferior to the Wulun Fire Control Method in terms of simple fire control, but it is much inferior in terms of power.

After all, the two have different focuses: the Tianyuan Fire Control Method focuses on refining medicine, while the Wulun Fire Control Method focuses on killing.

The Five Wheels Fire Method is a comprehensive killing technique that combines fighting skills, fire control and formations.

A five-star Dou Zun can come up with this kind of magic formula. The talent of Tianhuo Zun is truly terrifying.

Come to think of it, he is also good at sealing techniques and created the Tiandu Fire Seal that can suppress the outbreak of the Evil Poison Body.

It must be said that although this person's strength is not the best among the Dou Zun, he is very capable and creative, and belongs to the extremely rare "scientific research" talent.

With some appreciation, Lin Yuan put the Five Wheels of Fire into his storage ring, then took out a dark white scroll and handed it over, "Since you are so sincere, I will not hide anything. You may as well take a look at this..."

"I have to say, you are very lucky to have met me, Senior. Give me some time, I can solve all your problems!"

Hearing this, Venerable Skyfire showed a bit of surprise on his face. He took the scroll and slowly spread it out. His eyes narrowed when he saw the content: "Refine a perfect body and live again? Three kinds of strange fire, Dou Zong body, bone-growing and blood-melting pills, and the blood of a seventh-level monster..."

Trying his best to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, the Skyfire Venerable said in a deep voice: "Young friend, please feel free to ask for anything you want. As long as it does not violate the principles, I will agree to it!"

If I could really live my life again, today would be my lucky day.

Lin Yuan shook his head and said seriously: "I don't have any requirements. Take this as a sign of sincerity. How about we form a mutual aid alliance? I will do my best to prepare for the resurrection of the senior, and the senior will help me within the scope of his ability."

"I am also a creator of laws. If there are no special circumstances, the things I will seek help from seniors in the future will mainly be related to the creation and deduction of fighting skills and secret laws..."

"After all, Senior was able to create the Five-Wheeled Fire Separation Technique. I admire this talent."

In terms of combat power, Lin Yuan currently has sufficient strength. According to Venerable Skyfire, it would be more valuable to let him help perfect the "Demonic Flame Spot".

"Creation and deduction of the formula?" A hint of pride flashed in the eyes of Skyfire Venerable, and he looked at Lin Yuan with appreciation, "I didn't expect you would be interested in these. My friend, you are very knowledgeable. I will accept this alliance."

"Very good." Lin Yuan nodded and stretched out his right palm. "Let's high-five to swear an oath!"

"Good idea!" Venerable Skyfire stretched out his right palm.

"Snapped--"

The sound of high-fives was heard, and both of them smiled with satisfaction.

"I'll leave this young heart flame to you first!" Yao Tianhuo raised his hand, and the fallen heart flame on the skeleton floated to his hand. He looked at Lin Yuan deeply, raised his hand, and the heart flame floated in front of Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan took over the larva of the Fallen Heart Flame, his mind moved slightly, the Dark Sea Ring flashed, and a silver and copper puppet appeared in front of him.

"Open!" Lin Yuan said lightly.

"Click--" A slight mechanical sound was heard, and a small storage device emerged from the belly of the Earth Demon Puppet.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan smiled. This was a sudden idea that came to him when he was refining the second puppet. Perhaps out of some mysterious idea, he used the techniques of point casting and mechanical engineering to add a storage function to the demon puppet.

As a result, the quality of the second puppet was one point lower than expected.

Lin Yuan used his fighting spirit to condense a solid crystal wall to trap the young heart flame, and then placed it into the storage device on the demon puppet.

He has not yet controlled this young strange fire, so he decides not to take it into his body for the time being.

"Click--" a slight mechanical sound was heard again, and the storage device closed. The breath of the strange fire was concealed, and the belly of the demon puppet became flat as usual.

Afterwards, Lin Yuan turned his head to look at Venerable Skyfire, chuckled, and said with a bit of pride in his voice: "The little function I added when refining the puppet is quite interesting, right!" However, Venerable Skyfire looked as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He waved his hand as if he was not paying attention and said, "Senior, if you have any ideas, just speak up. It's uncomfortable to hold them in..."

Hearing this, Venerable Skyfire smiled and said, "I can see that you want to add a storage function to the puppet. But, this is actually unnecessary. You can just let the puppet hold things in its mouth or swallow them, right?"

"Uh--"

When Lin Yuan heard this, his expression froze. He seemed to have really gotten stuck in a dead end at the time. The storage function he had designed on his own seemed to be really useless.

“Hahaha!” Lin Yuan laughed awkwardly, scratched the back of his head, and said, “It seems to be just as you said. I’m sorry to make you laugh.”

"Everyone gets carried away at some point, especially people like us." Skyfire Venerable waved his hand and said with a smile, "Back when I was creating the Five-Wheeled Fire Method, I did countless stupid things and had countless off-track ideas."

The two talked for a while, and perhaps because they had a common language of "research", they felt as if they had met a friend regardless of age.

During the conversation, the two got to know each other and established initial trust.

"The Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion should indeed be under the magma sea!"

After confirming the abnormality of the ancient imperial jade in the ring, Lin Yuan came to a conclusion. He glanced down with his deep eyes vaguely, and then immediately looked away.

Right now, he is far from being qualified to explore what is below.

He glanced outside and said in a deep voice: "The Salamanders roaming outside have left. Let's leave now."

Upon hearing this, Skyfire Venerable lowered his head and glanced at his own skeleton, with a complex expression in his eyes. He sighed and said, "Young friend, please collect my dry bones as well. After all, they are the skeletons of a Dou Zun and have some special uses."

Lin Yuan nodded, waved his hand, and the pile of bones flew over and were all stored in his ring.

After confirming it with his soul perception, his face lit up with joy, "Good opportunity, let's go!"

Venerable Skyfire nodded, and his hand seal moved slightly. The white ring in his hand automatically slipped onto Lin Yuan's finger, and his blurry figure flashed forward.

"Go at full speed. I will use my remaining strength to cover your tracks. Don't delay."

"These fire lizardmen are extremely sensitive to the flow of magma, and there are many strong ones, including Dou Zong and Dou Zun levels. We must not be entangled by them. They can't leave the magma sea. As long as they go out, we will be safe."

As soon as he finished speaking, the outer halo seemed to lose its support and began to dissolve.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly, and the invisible flames enveloped his body again, transforming into a high-speed rotating flame shuttle.

Sensing the direction of the shadow clone, Lin Yuan controlled the fire shuttle to shoot out like lightning and fly upwards.

A few minutes later, as the two of them were moving forward, a team led by a Fire Lizardman with a Dou Zong-level aura happened to block the front. After discovering Lin Yuan, an extremely condensed column of magma sprayed out.

"court death!"

A hint of ferocity flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes, and with a flip of his hand, three Dou Zong puppets blocked in front of him.

"Quick battle and quick decision, kill them!" Lin Yuan said coldly.

Before he finished his words, the Earth Demon Puppet rushed up with the violent momentum of the Seven-Star Dou Zong.

It threw a punch, and the space in front of it suddenly twisted. A fierce fist wind burst out, directly shattering the attacking lava column with one blow, and the remaining force continued to hit the fire lizardman blocking the way.

As for the other two demon puppets, one blocked the retreat while the other began to kill other fire lizardmen.

The Dou Zong-level Fire Lizardman crossed his hands, snorted dully, and struggled to resist the wind from the fist.

However, he continued to face attacks.

"Soul Seal!"

A flash of silver light appeared, and Lin Yuan's figure had arrived, and he blasted out with a palm emitting a fluorescent glow.

Realizing that he was facing a life-and-death crisis with no way to escape, a hint of ferocity flashed in the Dou Zong-level Flame Lizardman's eyes. He clenched his broad palm into a fist, gathering the fire element on it, and smashed it fiercely at Lin Yuan.

As fists and palms clashed, a powerful ripple broke out and Lin Yuan's figure flew backwards.

However, he had anticipated this and retreated, using the "discard" technique in conjunction with his body movements. He turned around at the moment of flying backwards to dissipate the force on his body and stabilize his body.

However, the Dou Zong-level fire lizard felt as if its soul had been hit by a heavy hammer and immediately fell into a trance.

At this moment, a silver light flashed, and the Earth Demon Puppet appeared in front of it in a silver ghostly manner.

"laugh--"

The ghost claw stretched out like a dagger, instantly piercing through and crushing the chest of the Dou Zong-level Fire Lizardman, and took out a deep red bead from its body.

Then, the killing machine turned around without hesitation and joined the ranks of cleaning up other fire lizardmen.

In less than a minute, the entire team was wiped out.

Seeing this, the Skyfire Venerable in the snow-white ring was also shocked. He felt somewhat fortunate that although Lin Yuan had not yet achieved Dou Zong status, the power he possessed was completely beyond his current ability to resist. Fortunately, he treated him with courtesy, otherwise...

Lin Yuan put away the fire bead with satisfaction, then flashed out like lightning and continued to flee upwards.
-
The surface of the magma sea was silent, with no wind or waves, and only the slight sound caused by the occasional bursting of bubbles.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, a sound of breaking water was heard, and a flaming shuttle shot out from the magma and hovered in the air.

The flames dissipated, and the figures of Lin Yuan and the three demon puppets appeared.

"Finally, I left that damn place." Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little relieved. "Fortunately, there was no danger. Fortunately, I refined three demon puppets first, otherwise I don't know what would have happened."

After defeating the Dou Zong-level Flame Lizardmen team, he was "fortunate" enough to encounter a stronger team.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan was strong enough, and the puppets he had were strong enough and numerous enough to resolve the battle quickly, so he was not held back. Otherwise, if he was held back, there was a high chance that he would be buried in the magma sea.

After all, after dealing with the second team, he immediately sensed several stronger auras approaching.

"However, the gains from this battle are not small."

Looking at the large number of fire beads in the ring, especially the three extremely energetic fire beads, Lin Yuan showed a satisfied smile on his face, "With these, I will have sufficient energy when I advance to Dou Zong."
