Chapter 413: Chapter 219: The Crimson Red Thread of Fate_2

Therefore, he couldn’t possibly keep the Eye of Emptiness activated and follow the thread of causality to find Fire Feather. If he did, he reckoned he would faint within a short time, right in this Red Lotus Fire State.
After some thought, Lin Yi decided to follow the direction of the thread of causality to check the situation. If Fire Feather really entered the deepest parts, then he would need to reconsider his options.
Furthermore, after today, the next opportunity to Predict Crisis would be available. Once he used it, he would be able to determine whether he would encounter any danger within the next day.
Then, Lin Yi followed the direction of the blue causal thread. He did not send out the Paper Man to scout ahead.
This is because the Lower-grade Paper Figure has limited Spiritual Power and moves extremely slow in the Fire State.
Moreover, the Paper Man had only appeared in the Fire State for a short while and it already bore signs of being scorched by flames.
He felt that if the Paper Man stayed for too long, it might completely dissolve.
As long as he hadn’t entered the deepest parts of the Red Lotus Fire State, given his Golden Core Realm which could match the strength of an early Nascent Soul, he wouldn’t encounter much danger.
Lin Yi followed the direction of the causal thread for about a day and, in front of a scarlet volcano, he came across a fork in the road.
Now, there were two ways to determine which path to take. One was to use the Eye of Emptiness to directly check the direction of the thread of causality.
The other was to use the Minor Blessing State of [Compassion], consuming Virtue Points, to determine the direction of Fire Feather.
Back when he first entered the Dan God Secret Realm, he used this method to determine the direction of the Alchemy Room.
However, this Red Lotus Fire State harbored an elusive sort of mystery, so much so that even the Dan God Secret Realm, which could disregard the protective Formation of the Ten Major Sects and teleport at will, was unable to teleport into it.
A teleportation channel requires location information, much like a set of coordinates. The depths of the Red Lotus Fire State, though, were filled with an enigmatic energy that interfered with the acquisition of location data, thus making teleportation impossible.
Therefore, if he were to use the Minor Blessing State, the Virtue Points consumed could potentially be large.
Lin Yi decided to use the Eye of Emptiness. From his previous experiences, the Eye of Emptiness seemed unaffected by the mysterious energy of the Red Lotus Fire State, and the consumption of spiritual power was normal.
Thusly, it was clear that his full title was powerful. After all, he had achieved the color of the Golden Core, never approaching feminine allure, never using the effects of his title again. He had made such a great sacrifice for this title. If it wasn’t powerful, it would be too unfair.
Throughout the journey of the previous day, he had already taken a pill to restore his spiritual power. Although he had expended some in resisting the mental influence of the Red Lotus Fire State, he still had a sufficient amount overall.
Lin Yi then activated the Eye of Emptiness. As he kept Fire Feather’s promise in mind, two threads of causality appeared before his eyes again, one blue and the other red as fire.
However, the directions of these two threads of causality were surprisingly identical. Furthermore, the shade of the red causal thread that resembled flames seemed to have deepened.
It seemed that the deeper he went, the more he was remembered by the Red Lotus Fire State.
Lin Yi only took a glance, and as he prepared to exit the Eye of Emptiness, he suddenly felt the blue causal thread fluctuating. This likely indicated that Fire Feather was in danger, perhaps even mortally so.
At this moment, he didn’t panic. After exiting the Eye of Emptiness, he stood at the crossroads, pondered for a moment, and then set foot on the path indicated by the thread of causality.
On this path, he found a relatively safe and secluded spot, then wore [A Gentleman Doesn’t Stand Under A Dangerous Wall] and used the Predict Crisis feature, which could be used once every three days.
As his Divine Sense tapped the Predict Crisis button, he suddenly felt intense pain within his heart, and erratic, vague images emerged in his mind.
All he saw were flames enveloping the sky, and, seemingly, a dazzling Red Lotus emerging from the flames. However, it was too blurry, and he wasn’t sure whether he had indeed seen it.
Several seconds later, the images in his mind disappeared, and the pain in his heart quickly receded, as if all these never happened.
Lin Yi felt agitation welling up in his heart, accompanied by a tempestuous urge to destroy everything. He quickly circulated the Water Element in his Golden Core around his body a few times, gradually calming down.
The influence of the Red Lotus Fire State was indeed pervasive, striking instantly the moment it sensed an opportunity.
If it wasn’t for the unexpected merging of the Five Elements into the Golden Core this time, he probably wouldn’t have ended up in this Fire Hazard Zone.
After his mind regained clarity, Lin Yi couldn’t help but think of the inferno he saw during the Predict Crisis vision. Among the sea of flames, appeared a red lotus.
This was probably the Red Lotus fire. According to Pill Immortal Master, the Red Lotus fire hides deep within the Fire Hazard Zone. There, any flicker of flame could bear its trace.
In other words, the Red Lotus fire can freely teleport within the depths, rarely appearing in other areas of the Fire State, possibly due to certain restrictions.
Otherwise, considering its volatile nature, all who enter the Fire State would likely be burned to ashes.
If you desire to control the Red Lotus fire, you must find its main body. Controlling the derived flames will not affect it at all.
The Pill Immortal Master once mentioned how hard it is to encounter the main body of the Red Lotus fire. His main body guarded the Fire State for many years, seizing just one opportunity, but ultimately still failed to control it and had to give up.
Looking at the vision again, given his current Realm, if he encountered the Red Lotus fire, he wouldn’t be able to escape at all.
Yet, the pain he perceived didn’t evoke the sensation of a life-threatening crisis.
Back then, the resident Immortal Master of Qing Shi City colluded with the Golden Core Real Person from the Xuan Yin Sect to plot against him.
At that time, after using the Predict Crisis ability, he felt a heart-throbbing pain, turning pale, tormented almost to the point of wishing for death, while this Predict Crisis episode didn’t feel as intense.
This made Lin Yi start to ponder. Could the Red Lotus fire have affected the effect of Predict Crisis? He shook his head. The power of the title had already impressed him; nothing could affect its accuracy.
Even using the Minor Blessing State only subjected him to possible influences, causing the Virtue Points to be consumed at a high rate. However, the resulting prediction was undeniably accurate.
Since the prediction was accurate, and he could survive after encountering the Red Lotus fire, the only possibility was that he had a means to counter the Red Lotus fire.
If there is no way to counter it, with the Red Lotus fire able to teleport at will, there would be no escaping it.
Lin Yi pondered for a while, and his eyes brightened at the realization of a possibility. The elements in his Golden Core couldn’t resist the Red Lotus fire.
However, there was something else stored in his Title System – Alchemy Fire rewarded by the Title.
This Alchemy Fire was so powerful that even the Pill Immortal Master couldn’t fully understand it. Furthermore, it could enter the body to make Golden Cores.
The introduction of the Alchemy Fire stated that it can refine the Elixir of the World, implying it could be used in the Upper Realm to refine even higher level pills.
Additionally, he had complete control of this Alchemy Fire. It would appear wherever he wished.
The Red Lotus fire liked to consume flames, didn’t it? Perhaps he could feed it the Alchemy Fire, and might even eventually control it through the Alchemy Fire.
As for other methods, none of them could save his life.
Take “Little Kindness, Little Compassion” for instance, it could acquire the protection of luck.
However, being targeted by the ferocious Red Lotus fire, burning up Virtue Points might offer a glimmer of hope, but could never ensure 100% survival.
Lin Yi pondered for a while, questioning whether he should wait for three more days here to observe the second Predict Crisis vision.
However, some opportunities were fleeting. Perhaps next time, he might not have a chance to survive or control the Red Lotus fire.
Moreover, judging from the cause-and-effect line of Fire Feather, danger might be imminent. If he waited another three days, the bird might be gone.
