After confirming that he was adequately protected, Lin Feng slowly raised his hand—now wrapped in a layer of blood-colored keratin—and picked up the Green Colored Lotus Platform beside him.
Then, with his other hand, he grabbed the Green Lotus Core Flame and pulled it out.
Losing the restraint of the lotus seat, that once-tiny green flame instantly swelled to several times its previous size.
In the blink of an eye, the green flame transformed into a large mass of fire, suspended mid-air.
As the flame grew larger, the temperature within the alchemy room began to rise at an astonishing pace.
The green flame surged and flickered violently in front of Lin Feng.
With the flame burning higher and higher, the surrounding space even began to show faint signs of distortion.
Fortunately, Lin Feng was seated cross-legged atop the lotus seat.
The green lotus emitted a faint cyan light shield, blocking out most of the Heavenly Flame's intense heat for him.
Even so, there was still residual heat that managed to seep through, causing the blood-colored keratin on his body to start dripping with crimson liquid.
"As expected, even the nineteenth-ranked Heavenly Flame is far more violent than beast flames."
Staring grimly at the increasingly ferocious green fire in front of him, Lin Feng quickly thrust his hand into the core of the flame.
As his arm reached deeper into the Green Lotus Core Flame, the blood-colored keratin covering it began to rapidly melt under the terrifying heat.
Drop after drop of blood-like liquid dripped from his arm.
Each time the liquid detached from his body, it was instantly incinerated by the green flame into fine red powder.
Although the keratin layer melted quickly within the Heavenly Flame, the medicinal power of the Blood Lotus Essence Pill within Lin Feng's body simultaneously released a continuous stream of chilling yin energy.
This energy surged through his meridians and quickly repaired the melted parts of the blood-colored keratin on his arm.
Through this constant cycle of melting and repairing, Lin Feng's arm finally reached the very center of the Green Lotus Core Flame.
There, he seized a wisp of liquid resembling green magma.
As soon as he caught it in his palm, it squirmed slightly.
Seeing this, a hint of joy surfaced on Lin Feng's face, and he began to slowly withdraw his arm.
He knew—this magma-like substance was the core flame of the Green Lotus Core Flame.
At that moment, the Green Lotus Core Flame also seemed to sense Lin Feng's hostile intent.
The green fire churned wildly, instantly stirring the surrounding Heaven and Earth Dou Qi into a frenzy.
All kinds of multi-attributed Dou Qi were sucked into the flame.
Countless streams of energy whirled madly around the green flame like an accretion disk encircling a black hole.
Now, the Green Lotus Core Flame had become like a green-black hole, devouring all forms of energy around it.
As it continued to absorb energy from the surroundings, the green flame expanded rapidly in size.
With this sudden burst of activity, the already scorching temperature inside the room spiked again.
But Lin Feng acted as if he hadn't noticed, calmly and steadily withdrawing his arm.
Moments later, as the core flame was successfully extracted from within the Green Lotus Core Flame, the enormous green fire in front of him gradually began to shrink.
Soon, it condensed into a small, fine strand of green flame and drilled into the wisp of green magma in Lin Feng's palm.
Because the green magma contained an incredibly terrifying level of heat, the thick blood-colored keratin on his hand began to melt at a shocking speed.
"Hoo…"
Gazing at the core flame in his palm, Lin Feng let out a long, scalding breath.
Staring at the burning green flame—compressed into a mass of molten green magma carrying immense energy— he hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised the hand holding the core flame and suddenly tossed it straight into his open mouth.
The instant the magma entered his mouth, his body shuddered violently, as if struck by lightning.
The core flame, radiating extreme heat, flowed rapidly down Lin Feng's throat.
Every inch it passed through brought with it an intense burning pain.
Under the focus of his spiritual sense, the Heavenly Flame core that had just entered his body had already split into countless fine green flames.
These green flames, filled with terrifying energy, recklessly surged through his meridians.
Anything that stood in the path of the green flames was instantly reduced to nothingness.
Although Lin Feng's meridians were protected by a blood membrane condensed from the Blood Lotus Essence Pill, the terrifying heat still managed to slowly seep in.
Eventually, it reached the green keratin layer that had been formed by the energy of the Core Fire Lotus Seed.
Fortunately, this protective layer formed from the Core Fire Lotus Seed seemed to have a strong resistance against the high temperatures of the Green Lotus Core Flame.
In addition, Lin Feng was already a peak-level Dou Wang. His physical endurance was relatively strong, greatly reducing the pain he had to endure.
But even so, the lingering burning sensation still made him extremely uncomfortable.
Sweat the size of soybeans gradually beaded across his handsome face.
He didn't dare delay, and quickly focused his mind to draw Dou Qi from the Sea Urchin Dou Crystal, guiding the Heavenly Flame along the meridians aligned with the Burning Art's circulation path.
As the core flame traveled through his meridians for over ten minutes, the medicinal energy of the Blood Lotus Essence Pill gradually depleted.
Without its continued support, the blood membrane within his body rapidly thinned under the scorching burn of the Green Lotus Core Flame.
Just as the membrane began to fade and flicker, Lin Feng hurriedly grabbed the white jade box next to him—containing the Ice Spirit Cold Fountain— and tilted it to his lips.
In an instant, a bone-chilling current, cold enough to freeze the human body, poured down his throat and surged into his meridians.
Wherever the icy flow passed, Lin Feng felt those areas go numb from the cold.
The sudden influx of freezing energy caused frost to quickly form in his hair, turning it into strands of sparkling ice threads.
The frigid stream rushed through his meridians, spreading rapidly in all directions.
Wherever the current flowed, a milky-white layer of frost formed over his meridians and even his bones.
The invasive chill, bitterly cold to the core, happened to perfectly neutralize the scorching heat generated by the Heavenly Flame inside his body.
This sudden wave of comfort caused Lin Feng to let out a long sigh of relief.
The painful, twisted expression that had been on his face had unknowingly vanished.
Once the white icy layers from the Ice Spirit Cold Fountain protected his meridians,
the intense heat of the green magma merely clashed with the frost layers along the walls of his meridians as it moved through his body.
From the collision between fire and ice, wisps of pale white mist were born, swirling gently through his meridians.
