Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Little Marten is Stunned, Angry Buddha Lotus Flames? What Monstrous is This?!
At this moment, as Lin Yan successfully fused the Green Lotus Core Flame with the Bone Chilling Flame, a delicate fire lotus of blue and white hues floated above his palm.
However, the power contained within this fire lotus was far from as delicate as it appeared.
The instant the fire lotus appeared, the surrounding temperature soared rapidly. Just moments ago, the weather had been rather cool, yet now, with the emergence of this fire lotus, not only did the entire room, but even the entire inn, begin to feel like a furnace.
Yao Lao stared blankly at the Angry Buddha Lotus Flames before him. With his keen eyes, he could naturally perceive the terrifying power contained within it.
Though it was merely a small fire lotus, Yao Lao estimated that if it were to strike down, the explosion alone might be too much for even an average Dou Huang to withstand.
After all, this contained the power of two Heavenly Flames.
A single Heavenly Flame was already enough to torment even Dou Wangs and Dou Huangs, let alone this technique, which was formed by merging two of them.
"Little friend, are you alright?"
Yao Lao quickly shifted his gaze to Lin Yan's face.
At this moment, Lin Yan was clearly not as relaxed as he had seemed earlier.
Previously, when he had fused the Amethyst Winged Lion's Purple Flame with the Green Lotus Core Flame to create a miniature Angry Buddha Lotus Flames, he had felt no strain at all.
However, now that he had fused two Heavenly Flames into a complete version of the technique, Lin Yan was far from comfortable.
His Yuan Power had been completely drained by this monstrous creation. His complexion had turned pale, his limbs felt weak, and he looked as if he might collapse at any moment.
Seeing Lin Yan in this state, Yao Lao couldn't help but express his concern.
"It's quite exhausting," Lin Yan admitted with a bitter smile. "Just forming a single one of these drained all my Yuan Power, and it's still not in its most perfected state."
"With my current cultivation level, unless absolutely necessary, I should refrain from using this technique."
Even though he was cultivating using both the martial arts system of the Wu Dong Qian Kun world and the Dou Qi system of the Battle Through the Heavens world, his current strength was still only at the Yuan Dan Stage.
Using such an explosive technique recklessly was simply impractical.
However, that didn't mean that mastering the Angry Buddha Lotus Flames was meaningless. In fact, for Lin Yan, this technique was an invaluable trump card. If he ever encountered an opponent he couldn't defeat, he still had this as a last resort.
The value of such a technique was immeasurable.
"That's true," Yao Lao nodded. "If you could advance by another major stage or two, using this would certainly be much easier."
"For now, you should put it away. If it accidentally detonates, it won't be a laughing matter."
Lin Yan agreed with a nod and prepared to dissipate the fire lotus.
However, at that very moment, a set of hurried footsteps suddenly approached.
Upon hearing them, Yao Lao immediately withdrew into Lin Yan's Storage Ring.
Lin Yan turned his gaze toward the door, soon realizing that it was Lin Dong who had pushed it open and entered his room.
"Lin Yan, what is that in your hand?"
Lin Dong had naturally sensed the disturbance from Lin Yan's side.
Since their rooms weren't far apart, the moment he detected something unusual, he had rushed over.
Now, after entering the room and seeing the fire lotus in Lin Yan's palm, Lin Dong couldn't help but swallow nervously.
Although he wasn't as perceptive as Yao Lao, nor did he possess such deep knowledge, he wasn't blind. From the fire lotus in Lin Yan's hand, Lin Dong could also sense an overwhelming power, which left him quite shaken.
"This… this monstrous thing…
"Did that brat actually create it? This is insane. Even Grandfather Marten couldn't form something like this when I was at the Yuan Dan Stage."
Inside the mysterious stone talisman, Little Marten was equally dumbfounded. As he sensed the power radiating from the Angry Buddha Lotus Flames, his expression was filled with shock.
Whoosh!
By this point, Lin Yan could no longer hold on.
Realizing that the person who had arrived was Lin Dong, Lin Yan used the last of his strength to dissipate the Angry Buddha Lotus Flames.
However, after doing so, due to his complete exhaustion, he immediately lost consciousness.
"Lin Yan!"
Lin Dong quickly stepped forward to catch him.
"He's fine, no need to worry. He's just exhausted."
Little Marten, after checking Lin Yan's condition, reassured Lin Dong.
"Why did he suddenly faint?"
Lin Dong let out a sigh of relief upon hearing this but still couldn't help asking.
"Nonsense! If he didn't faint, that would be the real problem! If you could create that monstrous thing, you'd pass out too."
"That technique is simply not something someone at his level should be using!"
Little Marten rolled his eyes at Lin Dong and replied in an annoyed tone.
Lin Dong found himself agreeing.
After all, he had taken a look at the fiery lotus in Lin Yan's hand, and the sheer power contained within had filled him with terror.
If he had been struck by it…
Just the thought of it made Lin Dong's hair stand on end.
"It's best to just wait for this kid to wake up on his own. Then, we can ask him everything afterward."
Little Marten added.
Lin Dong nodded in agreement.
"Looks like that's the only choice."
He quickly moved Lin Yan onto the bed so he could rest.
As for himself, he decided to stay in Lin Yan's room and cultivate. After all, Lin Yan was unconscious, and Lin Dong wasn't at ease leaving him alone.
Thus, he remained in the room, training while keeping an eye on Lin Yan.
When Lin Yan finally woke up, it was already the next day.
----
The next morning.
Lin Yan finally emerged from his slumber.
However, upon waking up, he still felt sore all over. Checking his internal Yuan Power, he realized it hadn't fully recovered yet.
It seemed like he would need to take some pills to replenish himself.
"Lin Yan, you're awake."
Lin Dong, noticing Lin Yan stirring, immediately approached, expressing his concern.
Lin Yan nodded toward him. "Sorry for making you worry."
Lin Dong simply waved his hand dismissively. "Come on, why are you saying that? We're brothers, no need for formalities!"
Then, with a puzzled expression, he asked, "By the way, Lin Yan, what exactly was that thing you made yesterday? Its power was absolutely terrifying."
Lin Yan could only offer a bitter smile. "That was a combat technique I've been training. But its energy consumption was beyond my expectations, which is why I ended up exhausted."
Hearing this explanation, Lin Dong was dumbfounded.
He couldn't help but exclaim, "A combat technique?"
"How could a technique be that strong?"
"That's just insane!"
