As Lin Yi was deep in thought, his peripheral vision caught sight of something. He moved quickly to the side of the path to find a fiery red feather.
Not just that, there were other feathers as well, seemingly remnants from a battle with some creature.
Just as he was about to pick up the feather, he suddenly felt the heat emanating from it as if something was afoul.
Not wanting to touch it, he promptly put it in a separate storage bag.
Subsequently, Lin Yi traced back to the split in the volcanic path. On the side directed by the karmic line, similar feathers were found that looked just like the Fire Feather’s.
He had ignored the items nearby due to checking the karmic lines and predicting the crisis.
That aside, the appearance of the feather gave Lin Yi more questions. It seemed too deliberate, could it be a method used by the Red Lotus fire itself.
Lin Yi silently stood in place thinking for a moment. He decided to set off immediately, following the directions indicated by the karmic line, heading into the deepest part of the fire environment without waiting for the opportunity to predict the crisis in three days.
Regardless of whether the Fire Feather’s feather was deliberate or leftover from a fight, the result of the predicted crisis is absolutely accurate.
If the karmic line of the Fire Feather did not change, for the sake of stability, he would lean towards choosing to view the crisis scene again.
After all, the main reason for coming to this Red Lotus Fire State was in search of the Fire Feather. If he were to take back a dead bird, it would be a huge failure and his heart would be filled with guilt.
Of course, the reason for choosing to set off immediately was still because of the predicted crisis result, which posed no threat to his life. Moreover, he could potentially gain the opportunity to control the Red Lotus fire.
On the contrary, if the result of the predicted crisis posed a threat to his life, then he would have to give it up. In such a situation, insisting on rescuing would be akin to a suicide mission.
If he did not go today but waited three more days, the prediction of the result might change.
Considering his current speed, reaching the edge of the Red Lotus Fire Field should be towards the end of the day.
The Red Lotus Fire Field was the name given by cultivators, meaning the area where the Red Lotus fire can freely teleport and move. It was the most perilous area, usually marked in red on the maps drawn by cultivators.
Based on the materials he collected and the narrations of the Pill Immortal Master, the area where the Red Lotus fire originally moved was quite small. As it devoured more fire, its power increased and its range of movement also expanded.
Unexpectedly, in about another thousand years or so, the entire Red Lotus Fire State might become its active range.
However, upon seeing the red karmic line, Lin Yi couldn’t help but feel puzzled. If the Red Lotus fire sees everyone who enters the fire environment as food, why did the Pill Immortal Master wait for several years to see its main body.
The first possibility is that it only picks fights it knows it can win. Knowing that the Pill Immortal Master is not easy to deal with suggests it possesses its own conscious mind and is not completely controlled by intense emotion.
The second possibility is that it can devour cultivators or flames by relying on the fire separated from its own body, the power of which is then transmitted to its main body.
His current sensing reveals that both possibilities exist.
Lin Yi enhanced his senses to the maximum, swapped some titles, and rearranged his backup title slot.
After achieving the Golden Core, the number of Titles he could wear changed from three to four, and the number of backup slots also increased by one.
The four titles he was currently wearing were [Young Striver], [The Road is at the Feet], [Meaningless Fight and Kill] and [Pity], to ensure that he could activate the Minor Blessing State at any time.
The backup title slot, on the other hand, has undergone some rearrangement, replacing some titles, such as the auxiliary title of [Patience Pays Off], [Burst Out], which allowed him to activate berserk mode, increasing extra damage.
Also, [I’m Not Pretending Anymore, it’s Tough] could also maximise extra damage.
If he entered the Red Lotus Fire Field, he felt the title [Face Difficulties Head On] should also come into effect.
Entering the area of the Red Lotus fire to save Fire Feather is inherently a difficult and dangerous task, naturally meeting the triggering conditions of the title.
This was the first backup title slot. The second backup title slot was filled with titles that would assist in escaping.
Even if he used Pill Fire to fight the Red Lotus fire, it only afforded him an opportunity to escape. It would be impossible for him to control the Red Lotus fire right now.
If the Red Lotus fire swallowed the Pill Fire and could fully digest it in the future, then he might be able to use the Pill Fire element in the Red Lotus fire to attempt control over it.
The only question was whether the Red Lotus fire could digest the Pill Fire. If not, he would only be able to control the Pill Fire and not the Red Lotus fire.
After preparing, Lin Yi followed the direction of the karmic line at a normal speed.
Although under the ability to predict the crisis, he knew that his life was not in danger, but he still had to be careful. Sometimes, knowing the future could mess things up.
It took him almost a day to travel from the volcanic fork. Along the way, he saw a few feathers left by the Fire Feather, all mixed with the fur of other creatures, as if they had fought their way in here.
