Immediately, she asked: "Husband, with no other ancient clan members present, should we take this opportunity to eliminate Gu Xun'er and, by the way, take this Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame to boost your strength?"

As she spoke, Yun Yun lowered her jade hand in a virtual grasp; a faint light flashed, and a slender green sword appeared in her hand.

"Let's not kill her for now, after all we don't know the situation outside. If we rashly kill her and there happen to be ancient clan experts lying in wait outside, only we will suffer."

Regarding Yun Yun's suggestion, Lin Feng pondered briefly and then immediately rejected it.

"Indeed, then let's do as you say, husband."

Upon hearing that, a hint of approval flashed across Yun Yun's dignified and beautiful face; she then slightly relaxed her delicate hand, causing the slender sword to dissipate.

After all, they still don't know what's outside; if ancient clan experts were guarding the exit later, Gu Xun'er might still prove useful.

After Lin Feng finished looking at Gu Xun'er, his gaze shifted slightly and he spotted a corpse nearby.

"Is this Hun Feng?"

Seeing the corpse, Lin Feng's eyes flashed with surprise, and he exclaimed: "I never expected this divine-bloodline genius of the Hun clan to die here!"

"I hadn't noticed either; perhaps it was killed by the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire. After all, after the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire deployed the Refine Heaven Ancient Formation, each strike's destructive power was extremely shocking. Moreover, that Hun demon old man was only a five-star peak Dou Sheng, so he likely couldn't withstand all of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's attacks."

Regarding Hun Feng's cause of death, Yun Yun, due to her attention being diverted at that time, was equally unaware, so she could only shrug, indicating she didn't know.

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng immediately stroked his chin, then curled his lips and said: "Who cares? This kid dying is perfect—he has the Wu Nie Tun Yan's sub‑fire on him; his death is a boon to me."

Thinking of the heaven‑defying ability of Wu Nie Tun Yan, Lin Feng couldn't help but flash a hint of excitement in his eyes.

However, he did not rush to extract the Wu Nie Tun Yan sub‑fire from Hun Feng's body; instead, he raised his head and gazed toward the horizon where the energy storm was gradually dissipating.

After all, compared to the Wu Nie Tun Yan sub‑fire, the origin seed of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire is of paramount importance!

But when Yun Yun followed Lin Feng's gaze, she found that stretch of sky completely empty, with no trace of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire.

"Huh, where is the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire? Could it have been annihilated together with the Saint of the Pure Lotus Demon's remnant in that earlier explosion?"

After failing to find any trace of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire in that sky, Yun Yun's brows furrowed slightly and her expression sank.

Could it be that this time they're drawing water with a bamboo basket—all for nothing?

"Master, master, quick—the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire is down there; let's hurry and eat it, snivel. Such a huge strange fire, and with its intellect removed, it's simply too fragrant!"

However, as soon as Yun Yun finished speaking, Xiao Ling, who had long been unable to restrain herself upon seeing the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's intellect dispelled, sprang out, her little face full of longing as she gazed toward the distant lava.

"Hehe, you little girl, you can't stop drooling."

Seeing the girl's drool flowing freely, Lin Feng couldn't help but shake his head, then laughed while pinching her soft, tender cheek.

And Yun Yun, upon seeing the sudden appearance of Xiao Ling, wore a look of curiosity on her pretty face.

Although Lin Feng had told her about the strange fire spirit before, they had never actually seen one; this was her first encounter with a strange fire spirit.

At the same time, after pinching Xiao Ling's cheek, Lin Feng followed her gaze and looked toward the distant milky‑white lava surface.

The next moment, Lin Feng's sight fell upon a white lotus covered entirely in pink veins, slowly drifting across the boundless lava sea.

As it moved, it seemed as if the energy of the entire lava sea was being continuously siphoned away by it.

"Is this the origin of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire?"

Upon seeing that milky‑white lotus tinged with a faint pink hue, Lin Feng's emotions also surged uncontrollably.

After scheming for so long, today he finally managed to seize the origin of the third‑ranked strange fire, the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire!

Thinking of this, Lin Feng lightly tapped the void with his toe, his figure instantly slicing through the sky before landing steadily not far from the pink‑white lotus.

Seeing that, Yun Yun likewise tapped the void with her jade foot, her graceful form landing beside Lin Feng.

However, upon beholding the origin seed of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, she couldn't help but exclaim: "This Pure Lotus Demonic Fire is as pure as a newborn babe, utterly unlike its former self—there's not a trace of its former ferocity."

"Moreover, in my perception, although the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire has had its intellect stripped by the Saint of the Pure Lotus Demon, its spiritual foundation remains; it has not become a lifeless fire devoid of spiritual energy like Beast Fire."

While speaking, a flicker of awe also appeared in Yun Yun's beautiful eyes.

Heaven‑and‑earth strange fires surpass ordinary flames precisely because they possess a spirituality that regular fire lacks,

and if that spirituality is lost, the strange fire loses that dazzling charm—it can be said to be ruined more than halfway.

But the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire before us, while its ferocity has been removed, its spirituality remains completely unaffected.

Reflecting on this, Yun Yun couldn't help but be shocked by the methods of the Saint of the Pure Lotus Demon.

"Hehe, after all, the Saint of the Pure Lotus Demon is a veteran of playing with fire; he naturally knows what consequences would follow if he stripped away all of the fire's spirituality, so he would never do such a thing."

Upon hearing that, Lin Feng also gave a light laugh and shook his head.

If the Saint of the Pure Lotus Demon really did that, it would only damage his reputation.

However, Lin Feng then took a deep breath, grinned, and said: "But this time, the Saint of the Pure Lotus Demon truly helped me greatly. Not only did he give me the data from the Refine Heaven Ancient Formation, he also helped me eliminate the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's ferocious intellect. If he hadn't already perished thousands of years ago, leaving only a remnant, I would do anything to bring him back."

As he spoke, his tone also gained a hint of helplessness.

The Saint of the Pure Lotus Demon now has nothing but a mere remnant—indeed, even less than the former clan leader's soul of the Sky Phoenix Clan—and even he has no way to revive it.

This is normal, though; the Saint of the Pure Lotus Demon died from a backlash of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, and his soul might have been consumed in that mishap—long ago reduced to nothingness.

As for the former leader of the Sky Phoenix Clan, she suffered grave injuries, hid away, and ultimately died from those wounds; her soul sustained no other damage.

If one must speak, over time, plus her exhausting efforts to cultivate those several Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruits, her spiritual power has been greatly depleted.

"Master, stop chatting here—let's first absorb this Pure Lotus Demonic Fire; I'm about to starve!"

Xiao Ling, seeing the two chatting away as if no one else were present, immediately grew anxious and started jumping about.

After all, the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's origin seed lay bare before her eyes—how could she resist such temptation?

At this very moment, she didn't want to wait another second!

Yun Yun, seeing the other's adorable look, couldn't help but lift the corners of her lips slightly, then stroked the little girl's golden hair.

But as soon as she placed her jade hand on it, she felt an intense heat and instinctively pulled her hand back.

"Hehe, this girl is an embodiment of strange fire, and with my strange fire having fused with many others, her body temperature is extraordinarily high; aside from me, without sufficient strength one truly cannot touch her."

Seeing Yun Yun withdraw her jade hand after being burned, Lin Feng immediately laughed and explained.

Once his words fell, he turned his head to Xiao Ling and said: "All right, may I absorb it now? You, little girl, when you first entered here you were terrified to death, hiding inside my body trembling, not daring to utter a word. Now that the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's intellect has been removed, you're livelier than anyone."

While speaking, Lin Feng also pinched the girl's cheek in annoyance.

Who said I'm afraid of the sentience of that Pure Lotus Demonic Fire before? I—I just didn't want to talk to that ugly monster.

I—I just didn't want to talk to that ugly monster.

Thus: "【61】 "Who said I'm afraid of the sentience of that Pure Lotus Demonic Fire? I—I just didn't want to talk to that ugly monster.""

But need to keep quotes? The Chinese line includes 「」 quotes. We can keep them as quotes in English? Probably we should keep the quoted speech as is, but we can translate inside. Usually we keep the quotes. We'll output: 【61】 "Who said I'm afraid of the sentience of that Pure Lotus Demonic Fire? I—I just didn't want to talk to that ugly monster."

Make sure it's one line.

Seeing Lin Feng say she was timid, Xiao Ling immediately became unhappy and quickly spoke up to refute.

Translation: "Seeing Lin Feng say she was timid, Xiao Ling immediately became unhappy and hurriedly spoke up to refute."

We need to keep names: Lin Feng, Xiao Ling. Use "Elder"? Not here.

Thus: 【62】 Seeing Lin Feng say she was timid, Xiao Ling immediately became unhappy and hurriedly spoke up to refute.

As she continued, she again spoke with some lack of confidence: 'Besides, our matter with the Strange Fire—how could that be called fear?' 'Alright, I won't waste more words with you, little girl. After I prepare for a few days, I will start absorbing this Pure Lotus Demonic Fire.'

Two quoted sentences. We'll translate: "As she went on, she again spoke with some lack of confidence: 'Besides, our matter with the strange fire—how could that be called fear?'

While speaking, Lin Feng turned his head toward Yun Yun beside him and said: 'Yun'er, you go first to control Gu Xun'er; I'll make preparations first. After all, no matter how you put it, this Pure Lotus Demonic Fire is the third-ranked Strange Fire on the Strange Fire list. Placing it inside my body, I also need to make some preparations beforehand. Furthermore, thanks to the collection of that previous Golden Core master, my materials are not lacking; I can just refine some medicinal pills to aid my absorption.'

Translation: "While speaking, Lin Feng turned his head to look at Yun Yun beside him and said: 'Yun'er, you first go restrain that Gu Xun'er; I'll make preparations first.

Due to the previous venture into the Strange Fire Space, large numbers of forces' Battle Venerables or Half-Saints, and even top ancestors at the Battle Saint level, died therein.

Therefore, those forces that did not enter the Strange Fire Space, after confirming that most of the people inside had died, began a frenzied expansion of their territory.

You know, any force that has Battle Venerables, Half-Saints, or even Battle Saint experts as its mainstay is practically oozing fat; now that the opponent's main pillar has collapsed, if these people don't seize the opportunity to annex them, it's almost as if their brains were kicked by a donkey.

And as many forces began to frenziedly expand, the Zhongzhou Continent was thus certain to suddenly erupt in flames everywhere, with killing sounds unceasing.

Translation: "And as large numbers of forces began to expand frenziedly, the Zhongzhou Continent was surely to erupt in beacon fires everywhere, with incessant sounds of killing."

And those ladies who were taken notice of by the higher-ups of other forces—if the opposing side took them in as concubines along with their mothers or sisters, that was still alright; but if they were simply thrown out as rewards to subordinates, that was truly a fate worse than death, to be ridden by ten thousand people—about the best outcome possible.

Note there is a stray period at end. We'll translate: "And those ladies who were favored by the high ranks of other forces—if the opposing side took their mothers and daughters or sisters as concubines, that was still alright; but if the opposing side directly threw them out as rewards to subordinates, that was truly a fate worse than death, to be ridden by ten thousand people—about the best outcome possible."

However, many of the survivors of the powerful beings who died in the Strange Fire Space were relatively clear-headed; upon learning that their reliance had perished, they immediately took some precious cultivation resources and chose to flee, hiding in remote deep mountains and old forests, then sneaking off to other continents, where they could still live rather comfortably.

Translation: "And many of them were not so peaceful; upon seeing that the local forces' strength paled in comparison to their own, many directly began a great slaughter, wiping out many local forces of other continents, then began to carve out territories, letting local families provide them with cultivation resources and beauties as tribute, and then lived a life of luxury."
