The fire beasts captured by Lin Chen were divided into three levels: those at the peak of the Nirvana Realm, half-step to the Creation Realm, and those above the Creation Realm.
For those fire beasts above the Creation Realm, Lin Chen had no other choice but to plant a divine soul brand deep in their souls to control them. However, for other fire beasts that had not reached the Creation Realm, Lin Chen could forcibly tame them through aggressive means.
Fire beasts that had achieved the Creation Realm made it very difficult for Lin Chen to forcefully invade their souls with the Soul Capture Technique. If he's not careful and these beasts resist, the soul backlash could perhaps severely damage Lin Chen's own soul.
Therefore, Lin Chen found it almost impossible to forcibly plant restrictions in their Soul Sea.
The key issue was that these fire beasts had too little spiritual wisdom; they weren't afraid of Lin Chen at all, so the technique he used on the Little Profound Turtle was impossible to apply to these fire beasts.
Instead, these fire beasts were intimidated by the Little Profound Turtle, and they feared it more.
Seeing this, Lin Chen felt helpless and finally decided to only subdue the fire beasts whose cultivation had not surpassed the Creation Realm, temporarily giving up on those that had reached that level.
Capturing seventy to eighty half-step to Creation Realm fire beasts and thirty to forty at the peak of the Nirvana Realm provided significant support for Lin Chen.
If he were to encounter that fellow Yun Kaige again, Lin Chen wouldn't even need to let the Little Profound Turtle make a move; merely summoning these fire beasts would suffice to overwhelm Yun Kaige. Check latest chapters at nοvelfire.net
After subduing those fire beasts, Lin Chen returned to the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron to begin practicing the Fire Control Technique.
The Fire Control Technique is divided into three layers, but with Lin Chen's current cultivation, he could only practice the First Layer.
In the time that followed, Lin Chen stayed in the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, practicing the Fire Control Technique until he reached the minor achievement in the First Layer Realm.
With the starlight from those star maps in the Second Layer Space as a blessing, there was great help in cultivating martial arts skills and cultivation techniques.
Without the assistance of these starlights, it would have taken Lin Chen four to five times longer to cultivate the First Layer of the Fire Control Technique to minor achievement.
After mastering the First Layer of the Fire Control Technique, Lin Chen also found a way to further upgrade the rank of the Blue Lotus Divine Flame.
Then, Lin Chen left the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, appeared outside the cave residence, and summoned the Blue Lotus Divine Flame with a wave of his hand.
The dark lotus appeared in Lin Chen's palm, and he slowly flew to the light shield of the cave's defense array. As he stepped out, he let the Flame Lotus be exposed to the highly turbulent magma.
Immediately, Lin Chen began to perform the Fire Control Technique. As he did so, the fire attribute energy in the surrounding magma was immediately mobilized by Lin Chen, madly converging toward the dark lotus.
Simultaneously, the dark lotus frantically absorbed the violent fire attribute energy driven by Lin Chen's Fire Control Technique.
Although Lin Chen was submerged under the magma at this moment, he was able to resist the erosion of the Fire Sea due to the Fiery Fire Profound Armor, blocking most of the fire sea magma outside.
With the Fire Control Technique Lin Chen now mastered, the fire sea magma no longer posed any threat.
Thus, Lin Chen continued to channel the frenzied fire attribute energy from the fire sea for the Blue Lotus Divine Flame to absorb, and this process lasted several days.
On the seventh day, after the Blue Lotus Divine Flame had absorbed enough energy from the fire sea, it suddenly burst into flames. With a powerful aura erupting, the Blue Lotus Divine Flame evolved from a Fourth-Grade to a Fifth Grade Divine Fire.
After upgrading to a Fifth Grade Divine Fire, the Blue Lotus Divine Flame was far stronger than before.
But Lin Chen was well aware that even as a Fifth Grade Divine Fire, the Blue Lotus Divine Flame's power could not compare to the Yang Flame Divine Fire.
After all, the Yang Flame Divine Fire was a Seventh Grade Divine Fire and at the peak of the Seventh Rank.
With the Blue Lotus Divine Fire's successful evolution, Lin Chen, even without the Fiery Fire Profound Armor and merely relying on the Flame Profound Robe formed by the Fifth Grade Blue Lotus Divine Fire, could roam freely in the fire sea without being affected by the flames.
With a grand wave, Lin Chen absorbed the Fifth Grade Blue Lotus Divine Fire into his body. Looking at the cave before him, Lin Chen felt that this dive yielded ample rewards.
Judging by the time, it had been eleven days since Lin Chen last entered the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron to teleport to the unfamiliar world.
Therefore, Lin Chen planned to enter the unfamiliar world via the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron to continue body refinement before returning to the fire sea's surface.
Subsequently, Lin Chen returned to the cave and summoned the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron again, letting the Little Profound Turtle guard him while he flew into the cauldron.
Entering the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, Lin Chen decisively let the cauldron teleport him to that unfamiliar world.
Upon being teleported to the unfamiliar world, Lin Chen endured for a full eighty breaths before collapsing and being sent back by the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron.
Teleported to the unfamiliar world initially, Lin Chen could barely withstand over fifty breaths.
However, after fifty breaths, Lin Chen couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground. After falling, he managed to endure for thirty more breaths, reaching the limit of his physique, before being pulled back by the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron.
In the subsequent days in the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, Lin Chen's body waited patiently as physical strength gradually reconstructed his shattered flesh.
Lin Chen's current physique had an astonishing recovery power; in just five days, his entirely crushed body was fully reconstructed. This refinement successfully pushed Lin Chen's Ancient Divine Body to the Third Major Success Realm.
Lin Chen's body now could rival a half-step Seventh-rank magical treasure.
If Lin Chen's current body were to withstand the surprise attack from Yun Kaige's sword, Lin Chen would not be injured.
Moreover, with the half-step Eighth Rank Fiery Fire Profound Armor he wore, it was clear Yun Kaige could not easily harm Lin Chen now.
Given Lin Chen's current combat power, he likely had the qualification to confront Yun Kaige directly. Even if he couldn't defeat Yun Kaige head-on, Lin Chen now had the strength to protect himself against Yun Kaige and no longer needed to constantly flee.
"Yun Kaige, the grievances between you and me should finally be settled," Lin Chen's eyes glinted with a chilling light.
