Lin Feng and Horned Rat collected the Fire Scale Stone into the Space Tower as they walked, and headed towards the depths of the cave.
"Huh? There is a stone door." Lin Feng exclaimed in surprise. This stone cave is located halfway up the mountain, so how come there are traces of man-made construction?
But when you think about the white bones in the cave, it all makes sense.
The stone door was smooth and flat, with no handles on the side. Perhaps there was some mechanism to open it? He couldn't find it, anyway.
Lin Feng touched the stone door with his hand and felt a burning sensation on his hand. The temperature of the stone door was very high.
Lin Feng withdrew his hand and muttered, "Strange! There's heat but no flames. Are those white skeletons in the cave corridor related to the object in this stone door?"
Gurgle gurgle!
Lin Feng took out a leather pot of spiritual spring water and took a few big gulps, then rolled up his sleeves and pushed towards the stone gate. As the energy of the spiritual spring water exploded in his body, a huge force surged out, and the stone gate also made a creaking sound.
Boom!
Lin Feng actually pushed down the stone door, but he then quickly stepped back because a fiery red fog appeared in his eyes. It was extremely hot, as if it could burn people to ashes. The fiery red fog rushed towards Lin Feng like a flood. Lin Feng was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He picked up the frightened horned rat and hid in the space tower.
In the space tower, Lin Feng hadn't even stood firm when he felt something strange behind him. When he turned around, he was almost scared to death. The fiery red fog actually followed him into the space tower.
"Damn! What's going on? Can't I be the only one who can enter the space tower?" Lin Feng was shocked. It actually followed him in.
When Lin Feng was about to call Linglong Tower, the red fog floated towards the upper level of the space tower and its amount gradually decreased.
As the red fog diminished and finally disappeared, a loud rumbling sound came from the space tower, accompanied by strong vibrations, as if an earthquake had occurred.
Lin Feng sat cross-legged on the ground and waited. After a long time, the space tower returned to normal.
"The fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth floors of the Linglong Tower are all open."
At this time, a mechanical sound was heard from the Linglong Tower, and white mist suddenly floated in the Linglong Tower, like a fairyland or a phantom, with a more mysterious color.
"Huh? What's going on? So sudden? Why is the Linglong Tower fully opened?"
Lin Feng was confused. Linglong Tower had said before that one had to find the Fire Scale Stone by himself before he could unlock the other levels of Linglong Tower. Just now, there was only a thick red fog, and it was absorbed by the Linglong Tower, so that was it?
"Could it be that this thick fog is transformed from the Fire Scale Stone?" Lin Feng muttered.
"Master, the thick fog just now was transformed from the essence of the Fire Kirin. This essence is a higher-level existence, countless times stronger than the Fire Kirin Stone. It is the source of energy that the Linglong Tower needs." Linglong Tower replied.
"Transformed from the essence of the Fire Qilin? What does that mean?" Lin Feng was a little confused. What was the essence of the Fire Qilin?
"Reporting to the master, this means that there is a living Fire Qilin here, and all this energy is generated by its breath."
"Ah? A living Fire Qilin? Wow, this is a mythical beast that only exists in myths and legends!" Lin Feng's heart was pounding. Does this mean that there is a living Fire Qilin over there at the stone gate?
But it's a little strange! Who built the stone gate at the entrance of the cave? Could it be that someone has imprisoned the Fire Kirin?
"What a headache! This Fire Kirin must be a powerful character and should not be easily provoked. Oh, right! Linglong Tower, since the Linglong Tower is already open, can I go up and take a look?" Lin Feng asked.
Linglong Tower replied, "Master, not yet. The upper floors are different from the lower floors. They involve a space shuttle channel. Right now, it can only be opened, and it's not very stable yet. You need to find another 100,000 jin of Fire Scale Stone to stabilize the channel."
Lin Feng immediately stuck out his tongue. Oh my goodness, I still need to find another 100,000 jin? Where can I find so many Fire Scale Stones?
"Or we can capture a living Fire Kirin and let it live in the Space Tower. The energy it generates with each breath is much purer than those Fire Kirin stones." Linglong Tower suggested.
"A living Fire Qilin? Then I have to see its true appearance first." Lin Feng said.
He couldn't act rashly. The Fire Qilin was a divine beast, and it was not something a mortal like him could deal with. He had to decide based on the opponent's strength.
After saying that, Lin Feng walked out of the space tower. The thick red fog was transformed from the essence of the Fire Kirin, which had just been absorbed by the Linglong Tower. Now that he was out of the space tower, the thick red fog gathered in the stone gate was gone.
Lin Feng turned on the flashlight and shone it into the cave. Strangely, the light from the flashlight couldn't reach very far, only about three meters. Remember, this was a high-intensity flashlight! The light from the flashlight seemed to be absorbed by something.
Lin Feng had no choice but to grope forward step by step.
"Huh?" Lin Feng let out a light exclamation, and as he walked, he came to an empty hall. The flashlight could shine very far, and he saw a Tai Chi pattern appear in the center of the hall. The area of this Tai Chi pattern was not small.
In the very center of the Tai Chi diagram, there was a creature curled up and snoring. The snoring was not loud, but with each breath, a faint red mist came out of its nose.
This creature has a lion's head and deer antlers, is over two meters tall, has dark red scales on its body, and a tail that looks a bit like a fish's tail.
Lin Feng's arrival did not alarm the beast.
"This should be the Fire Qilin. It sleeps so soundly!" Lin Feng complained.
