Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 636 - 655: Entering Celestial Wind Valley

"I can’t quite tell what this is exactly, it seems to have a life of its own, incredibly mysterious. For now, I can only remain in this form outside. You should understand the dangers of the Divine Battlefield, be cautious in everything," the Demon Lord said at this moment.

Chu Linfeng looked at the Demon Lord’s form and said, "Where is the entrance to the Celestial Wind Valley? I’m planning to visit the Celestial Wind Valley."

With only a day left until the Black Lotus Seed matures, Chu Linfeng hoped to learn more about the specifics of the Celestial Wind Valley and the Thunder Pool from the Demon Lord. After all, the Demon Lord’s strength far surpassed that of the Fire Dragon King, and he would undoubtedly know these places better.

"Celestial Wind Valley? Why would you want to go there for no reason? That place is a forbidden zone in the Divine Battlefield, entering it almost guarantees a one in ten survival rate. I think it’s best you don’t go," said the Demon Lord, looking at Chu Linfeng in surprise.

At the moment, the Demon Lord’s body appeared merely as a mass of black mist, making his facial expression unreadable, but Chu Linfeng knew he must be extremely surprised.

"I need to acquire the Wind Spirit Pearl inside. Although it’s dangerous, I have to enter. Tell me everything you know in detail so I can prepare," Chu Linfeng said.

He then picked up the Cyan Frost Sword from the ground. Upon closer inspection, the Cyan Frost Sword seemed to have a life of its own, with two ancient characters engraved clearly on its blade - Cyan Frost. Chu Linfeng focused his mind and infused a small amount of Chaotic Dragon Power into it, instantly causing a dazzling Sword Aura to appear, the blade vibrating with extraordinary resonance.

"So this is the true appearance of the Cyan Frost Sword. As expected, divine weapons are indeed extraordinary. Now with the Cyan Frost Sword, my power should increase further!" Chu Linfeng said with a smile.

"The Cyan Frost Sword was among the top three ancient divine weapons back in the day, its power is naturally unparalleled. Qingshuang, you used the Cyan Frost Sword to achieve the title of unrivaled powerful being back then, and now that the seal on the Cyan Frost Sword is lifted, perhaps no one in the world can match you!" the Demon Lord said.

"I don’t have that capability. You should tell me about the situation in Celestial Wind Valley first. Once the Black Lotus Seed matures, we’ll head there. If you think it’s too dangerous, you can wait for me outside the valley, I won’t force you," Chu Linfeng said.

"You underestimate me. Presently, I’m in Soul Body form, attacks are ineffective against me. Of course, if you used a Soul Slash, you might severely injure me. I’m worried about you.

Inside Celestial Wind Valley, the winds are extremely fierce and are divided into three types: Earth Wind, Celestial Wind, and Li Feng. Among them, Li Feng is the most formidable; Li Feng can not only attack a person’s body but also assault their soul, you need to be cautious," the Demon Lord said.

"Why aren’t you worried about Li Feng? As a Soul Body, aren’t you more vulnerable?" Chu Linfeng laughed, hearing about these three winds for the first time.

"I’m a Soul Body, if encountering Li Feng, I can simply submerge into the earth and stone, where there would be no danger at all. Actually, what’s called Li Feng is just a black Astral Wind, but it’s extremely rare to encounter. You might not even come across it after traversing the entire Celestial Wind Valley," the Demon Lord explained.

"Have you entered it before? Otherwise, how do you know so much?" Chu Linfeng asked, as the Demon Lord’s past abilities would have made entering the Celestial Wind Valley not too difficult.

"I have indeed been inside, but coming out was utterly embarrassing. It took me nearly half a year to recover. That was good fortune as I encountered Celestial Wind. If it had been Li Feng, I might not be speaking with you here now," the Demon Lord said, as if still haunted by the memory.

"What does the Celestial Wind look like? I know of blue wind, could the Celestial Wind be blue?" Chu Linfeng inquired.

"Blue wind is considered Earth Wind, at best it’s the weakest Earth Wind. True Earth Wind is gray, and someone at the Fifth Layer of Saint Martial Realm would almost certainly die if they encounter it. As for the Celestial Wind, it’s even more terrifying; it’s a wind like blood, and I can’t elaborate on the specifics. I hope you don’t encounter this dreadful Celestial Wind; it’s truly horrifying," the Demon Lord related.

Chu Linfeng knew that the Demon Lord had faced Celestial Wind, and the ordeal must have been considerable for him. This was probably the last thing he wanted to talk about, as it was a defeat he naturally preferred to keep quiet.

"Do you know where in Celestial Wind Valley the Wind Spirit Pearl might appear?" Chu Linfeng asked.

"I really don’t know where the Wind Spirit Pearl might be, but I’ve heard that there are indeed Wind Spirit Pearls in the Celestial Wind Valley. You’ll have to find it yourself," the Demon Lord replied.

Chu Linfeng fell silent as the battle with the Divine Fire Centipede had expended too much of his Chaotic Dragon Power. With the Black Lotus Seed not yet mature, it was now the right time to absorb Star Power.

Chu Linfeng produced two Top-grade Star Stones and simultaneously absorbed them, leaving the Demon Lord bewildered. It was the first time he’d seen someone capable of absorbing two Star Stones at once, prompting him to marvel at Chu Linfeng’s prowess.

By noon the next day, Chu Linfeng ceased absorbing energy, with his Chaotic Dragon Power restored to about eighty percent. The Black Lotus Seed had matured, and he needed to obtain it quickly.

At this moment, a faint mist surrounded the Black Lotus. This mist appeared somewhat lucid, imbuing those who inhaled it with a refreshing sense of joy, "What kind of gas is this that has such an effect?" Chu Linfeng mused aloud.

"I don’t know what kind of gas this is either, but it seems unusual. What are you collecting this Black Lotus Seed for? It’s not a Spirit Medicine, and given the toxicity spreading around here, the Black Lotus Seed is also a highly poisonous item," the Demon Lord said.

Chu Linfeng was about to say he was gathering Immortal Spirit Qi, but considering the Sword Spirit, he couldn’t easily explain it. Moreover, he couldn’t possibly share the matter of the Sword Spirit with the other party.

"Lin Feng, it’s best to collect this Black Lotus Seed as soon as it matures. Now is the perfect time; don’t miss it," said the Sword Spirit.

After hearing this, Chu Linfeng struck the stem of the Black Lotus with the Cyan Frost Sword. A strong rebound force surged through, leaving him surprised. With the sealing broken, the Cyan Frost Sword was sharper than ever, yet it couldn’t cut through it, indicating how frighteningly hard the Black Lotus was.

Looking at the shallow sword mark on the stem, Chu Linfeng knew he needed to use more powerful Martial Skill to cut through it. He just needed to get the lotus capsule.

With a thought, he instantly executed Celestial Slash combined with the Five Elements Elemental Power, forming a Giant Sword constructed from Sword Qi. With a loud "boom!" the Black Lotus’s stem was directly severed, while countless rocks fell rapidly from the cliff. Seizing the moment, Chu Linfeng grabbed the Black Lotus and placed it into his Storage Ring, then swiftly used Instant Teleportation to fly into the air.

However, at that moment, he noticed his palm had turned pitch black, and it started to swell with pain.

"The Black Lotus’s toxicity is indeed extraordinary, so troublesome," Chu Linfeng said, depressed. Despite having formidable defense power, he hadn’t expected to be affected like this after just grabbing the Black Lotus.

"Qingshuang, the Black Lotus’s toxin is actually the Celestial Martial Divine Water’s poison, which is extremely potent. A regular person might have already died from poisoning by now. You’re fortunate that it’s only on your palm," said the Demon Lord.

Chu Linfeng hurriedly channeled the Wood Element within his body towards his palm, and a cooling sensation emerged, gradually easing the pain.

After a while, a blackish stain appeared on his palm, which should be the toxin from the Black Lotus. The might of the Wood Element was indeed extraordinary, capable of expelling even such potent poison from the body.

At this moment, the Demon Lord looked at Chu Linfeng as if seeing a monster and said, "You can actually expel this Black Lotus toxin instantly? How did you do it?"

"Well, it’s actually quite simple. I naturally have a body immune to all poisons, so minor Black Lotus toxins naturally won’t affect me. Let’s head to Celestial Wind Valley," Chu Linfeng said.

The Demon Lord was somewhat skeptical but decided not to press further as Chu Linfeng chose not to elaborate. With a laugh, the Demon Lord said, "My flying speed is far inferior to yours, so you’ll have to fly me there! I’ll guide you."

Following the Demon Lord’s directions to Celestial Wind Valley, Chu Linfeng continuously performed Instant Teleportation. Despite his speed, it was nightfall before he reached the destination since the valley was tens of thousands of miles away.

Celestial Wind Valley wasn’t a ravine, but rather a desert region filled with yellow sand. The heat was intense, but it posed no issue for Chu Linfeng. However, occasional Astral Winds would blow, stirring up sand and making traversal challenging.

"It’s already dark. I think you should rest for the night before entering tomorrow. Celestial Wind Valley is vast, nearly the size of Canglan Ancient Land; searching for the Wind Spirit Pearl will take time. It’s better to recover your body’s Star Power first," advised the Demon Lord.

Chu Linfeng agreed with the Demon Lord’s reasoning, acknowledging the depletion of his Chaotic Dragon Power from severing the Black Lotus and flying along the way. He took out the Star Stone and began absorbing it. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

All was quiet overnight, and at first light, Chu Linfeng stopped absorbing. The Chaotic Dragon Power was fully restored. As he gazed at the boundless yellow sand, he smiled and said, "Could there be Magical Beasts here?"

He recalled encountering Fire Scorpions and Flame Snakes at Celestial Dragon Academy and thought similar creatures might exist here. If unlucky, he might even encounter one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts.

"Of course, there are Magical Beasts with Fire Attribute and Wind Attribute elements here, but their strength isn’t too high. When I came before, I didn’t encounter Magical Beasts with a Fifth Layer of Saint Martial Realm level, but I can’t be sure after a thousand years," said the Demon Lord.

"Regardless, let’s go in and see. Now that you’re a Soul Body, why not enter into my Storage Ring for safety? I won’t have to worry about saving you later," Chu Linfeng said.

"I was thinking the same. If you have any questions, just ask me. Of course, if you have Soul Medicine for me, even better," the Demon Lord replied.

"There should be some in the Storage Ring; take it yourself!" Chu Linfeng said.

With that, Chu Linfeng chose a direction and flew into the air, heading into the distance, embarking on another thrilling journey...
