The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 938: The Eternal Third Place

Chapter 938: The Eternal Third Place

"What... what's going on?

Could it be that I stayed in there for too long, and my sudden appearance made them all a little confused?

If that's the case, then it is indeed my fault. It was just a competition, and I should have stopped at that point.

Tian Lin muttered to himself, still brimming with excitement.

As he returned to his seat, he noticed that many people were looking at him with strange expressions on their faces.

When he turned his gaze to the central high ground, he froze once again.

"This... how is this possible?"

The central high ground now displayed only one scene: Su Jingzhen and Little Ling.

They were the real focus of attention!

Seeing Su Jingzhen and Little Ling strolling leisurely through the flame space, occasionally collecting a special heavenly flame, Tian Lin thought he was hallucinating.

Subconsciously, he rubbed his eyes.

However, no matter how many times he rubbed them, the scene before him remained unchanged.

It was all real!

"How... how could they!"

Tian Lin's words were almost incoherent.

He had just emerged from the flame space and knew firsthand how terrifying the temperature had become.

Without any special treasures, it was impossible to endure.

Even though he had secured third place again, a result that would make many envious, it was a profound humiliation for him.

"I'm... still third?"

Despite his reluctance, Tian Lin had to accept the reality.

However, as he muttered these words, a deep sense of resentment filled his heart.

Having been selected by the Emperor Realm to participate in the Grand Alchemy Gathering, Tian Lin's cultivation and alchemy talents were undoubtedly exceptional.

In the Emperor Realm, he had already been the center of many accolades.

Naturally, he harbored an immense sense of pride.

In the first two rounds of the Alchemy Grand Meeting, securing third place was something he had endured.

But in this third round, relying on so many powerful artifacts, he had still only managed to come in third place!

This was simply unacceptable.

He vaguely knew Little Ling's identity, so losing to her didn't bother him much.

But what about Su Jingzhen?

In Tian Lin's eyes, Little Ling was now following Su Jingzhen like a subordinate.

It was as if Su Jingzhen was the sole protagonist of this event, while he, Tian Lin, was nothing!

At this moment, Tian Lin's Dao heart was beginning to falter.

---

As far as the crowd was concerned, Tian Lin was just a glimpse.

No one paid much attention to him.

After all, third place wasn't enough to hold their interest for long.

All eyes remained fixed on the scene of Su Jingzhen and Little Ling.

Over time, Su Jingzhen had collected over forty special Heavenly Flames.

The two of them had already explored a significant portion of the flame space.

"This is truly absurd.

This flame secret realm, which the Divine Dan Sect prides itself on, is like an ordinary treasure trove in front of Su Jingzhen and Little Ling.

In my opinion, even if the temperature in the flame space continues to rise, it won't have any effect on them.

After Su Jingzhen collected the first Deep Sea Netherflame, the so-called endurance test became meaningless for him."

"Indeed. Each special heavenly flame he collected has been residing in that flame space for endless ages.

They can create vacuum zones on their own, which must mean that they have special permissions or protective abilities."

"Speaking of which, the Divine Dan Sect really seems like a big victim here.

Since the second round, they've been giving treasures to Su Jingzhen.

The most ironic part is that Su Jingzhen doesn't even seem to be interested in joining the Divine Dan Sect."

"..."

At this moment, the crowd who were merely spectators shifted their ridicule to the Divine Dan Sect itself.

In their eyes, all the heavenly flames in the flame space were bound to be lost.

Yet, the Divine Dan Sect still refused to intervene, which seemed like a self-inflicted wound.

---

In the high sky, despite Li Lingxi's assurances, even Zhou Daoqi and the other elders of the Divine Dan Sect were beginning to feel uneasy.

"What exactly is the Sect Master thinking?

If we don't stop them, this secret flame realm will truly be gone.

Those over one hundred special heavenly flames are incredibly important to advanced alchemists.

Even if they can't be collected, cultivating in their presence can improve one's flame.

And if the secret realm loses those Heavenly Flames, the other ordinary flames will undoubtedly be affected.

That would impact the entire Divine Dan Sect.

This is also one of the most crucial foundations of our sect."

"..."

Elders like Song Kaishan muttered, seemingly casually, but actually putting pressure on Zhou Daoqi.

This affected their core interests. Several elders still didn't have their own Lifebound Flame, and they had tried to collect the Heavenly Flame in the secret realm without success.

Zhou Daoqi sighed helplessly.

He was under tremendous pressure because the other elders were unaware of the events in the ancestral tomb.

"Is this kid a blessing or a curse for the Divine Dan Sect?"

Zhou Daoqi muttered to himself, pretending not to hear the elders' words.

After all, Li Lingxi had already firmly expressed her stance. Even if he inquired further, it wouldn't change anything. freёwebnoѵel.com

Inside the carriage, Li Lingxi's expression remained grim.

"Is he really so greedy?"

She struggled to find the right words and finally mumbled weakly.

Shuang Jiang, on the other hand, smiled faintly.

"The Flesh and Blood Fire technique he obtained from your Divine Dan Sect must have evolved into something capable of absorbing these heavenly flames.

I'm curious how powerful his Flesh and Blood Fire will become after absorbing the entire Flame Secret Realm.

Perhaps it will truly become a supreme flame created by man.

From the moment he obtained that Flesh and Blood Fire, everything was destined.

Your Divine Dan Sect was fated to grant him this tremendous fortune.

This is a karmic connection. From his performance, you can see that his future is beyond measure.

This is an investment, and the return may be far beyond your imagination. "

As she spoke, Shuang Jiang's expression was serious, offering Li Lingxi a rare bit of comfort.

Li Lingxi replied, "I'm not heartbroken over these flames, as they're of no use to me.

As long as I eventually reach the pinnacle, the Divine Dan Sect will naturally become stronger in another way.

What I'm worried about now is that Su Jingzhen and Little Ling's performance this time is too outstanding.

Tian Lin from the Emperor Realm was completely defeated.

I wonder if they'll get angry and break the old agreement."

Upon hearing this, Shuang Jiang raised an eyebrow.

"If they don't abide by it, that would suit me just fine."

---

With the Divine Dan Sect's higher-ups taking no action, Su Jingzhen and Little Ling continued to enjoy themselves in the Flame Secret Realm.

Time passed, and a whole day passed.

By then, Su Jingzhen had absorbed and fused over ninety Heavenly Flames.

This accounted for more than ninety percent of the Heavenly Flames in the Flame Realm.
