249: Nanli Fire Region, the Treasure of Fire

Everything returned to calm, and the world continued to operate as usual.

"Little friend Lin Chen, you've come out of seclusion."

"Senior Fire Lord, are you ready to go and seize the Fire Dao Supreme Treasure?"

After Mirror Lin Chen's matters were concluded,

A Main God-level clone of the Fire Lord quietly approached him, clearly intending to fulfill their previous agreement.

At this moment, Mirror Lin Chen was somewhat hesitant.

Mainly, his human luck was not abundant or accumulated enough. He felt a bit unsure about prying loose the Fire Dao's sole Foundation Level Supreme Treasure.

Regarding karma, he had also used the heavenly calculation compass to deduce that with his current human luck, the possibility of helping the Fire Lord obtain the fire hell ring, a Supreme Treasure, was relatively low.

"Hehe, I'm always ready."

"Then Senior might have to wait a while longer. My current human luck is not enough to pry the fire hell ring into a deep karmic connection with us. Even with the augmentation of my Supreme Treasure, the heavenly calculation compass, it's powerless."

"Is the Supreme Treasure's name the fire hell ring? I do know which area of the Nanli Fire Domain the Supreme Treasure will appear in."

The Fire Lord was not disappointed; on the contrary, he was pleasantly surprised.

Previously, he only knew that the Fire Dao Supreme Treasure definitely existed in the Nanli Fire Domain, but he knew nothing more. Now, through Mirror Lin Chen, he knew the Supreme Treasure's name.

This was inherently a way to strengthen karma, which could be used to enhance the connection between the two.

In Mirror Lin Chen's eyes, the Fire Lord already had some connection with the fire hell ring. As products of the Fire Dao, the two naturally had a connection. After the Fire Lord learned the Supreme Treasure's name, this connection doubled.

However, it was still insufficient to pry into deeper levels of acquisition karma; the connection was not strong enough, and the human luck was not enough.

The Fire Lord had waited many years and didn't mind waiting a few more years or a decade or two, as it was the Fire Dao's only Foundation Level Supreme Treasure, inherently difficult to obtain.

Not everyone had Lin Chen's human luck, able to easily acquire two Foundation Level Supreme Treasures, and whose own human luck could directly pry Foundation Level Supreme Treasures.

There are countless beings in the universe, and the number of Foundation Level Supreme Treasures is limited. The number of Foundation Level items far exceeds the number of Foundation Level Supreme Treasures. Even Foundation Level beings cannot each possess a Foundation Level Supreme Treasure.

So the Fire Lord's mindset was very peaceful. If he could get it, great; if not, he couldn't blame Lin Chen. It just meant it wasn't destined for him.

There are still five years until the Xuan Guang Universe opens. During this period, Mirror Lin Chen didn't have any particular destination in mind.

Since he encountered the Fire Lord's clone, he decided to go explore the Nanli Fire Domain, accumulating human luck while mobilizing the power of karma to deepen his connection with the fire hell ring, striving to pry it loose as soon as possible and complete the transaction with the Fire Lord.

The Fire Lord's clone naturally had no objections.

The Nanli Fire Domain, a blessed land for Fire Dao cultivators in the universe.

The entire Fire Domain is a life starfield with a diameter of five billion light-years. Fire Dao laws are abundant there, and most of the beings born within it are fire-elemental, naturally suited for comprehending the Fire System Great Dao.

The Nanli Fire Domain is not located in the eastern part of the universe but in the western part, near the southern section of the Sky Abyss. It is ruled by the Fire God Palace, composed of fire-elemental gods, and does not belong to any super-large clan.

This is because the various super-large clans have not yet expanded into the Nanli Fire Domain. The conflicts between the Mechanical Clan, the Zerg, and the Yisha God Race are still far from the Sky Abyss region.

Therefore, there are only three ways to reach the Nanli Fire Domain.

The first is to cross the Sky Abyss. This route takes the shortest time but is the most dangerous. Crossing the Sky Abyss is inherently full of unforeseen circumstances, requiring adaptation to the unpredictable Sky Abyss.

The second route is to reach the northern and southern ends of the universe and bypass the Sky Abyss from its north and south extremities.

The danger is not high, but the time required is extremely long, which may cause various troubles with the races along the way.

The third route is to enter the void and reach the void corresponding to the Nanli Fire Domain from outside the universe.

The danger level is moderate. Gods who are in a hurry usually choose this method of travel. As long as they are not particularly unlucky, there are generally no problems.

The Fire Lord's clone possesses Main God-level strength.

So, to travel to the Nanli Fire Domain, the Fire Lord and Mirror Lin Chen chose the void route, which would only take half a year to reach the Nanli Fire Domain.

During this time, the Fire Lord's clone traveled, while Mirror Lin Chen cultivated in the portable world opened by the Fire Lord's clone, accumulating human luck.

Half a year passed in a flash.

The Fire Lord's clone, traveling in the near-space void outside the universe, arrived at the void corresponding to the Nanli Fire Domain, found the cosmic wall, successfully returned to the inside of the universe, and smoothly reached the Nanli Fire Domain.

"Little friend Lin Chen, we've arrived."

"Is this the Nanli Fire Domain? The Fire System Laws are indeed rich, almost manifest. It truly is a sacred land for cultivation."

"In the universe, most Fire Dao cultivators, as long as they know about this place, will come here at different stages of their lives to cultivate for a period. When I was young, I also stayed here for three thousand years, seeking some opportunities, which allowed me to take a crucial step, breaking through from an Upper God to the Main God level."

"It was also then that I realized the only Foundation Level Supreme Treasure of the Fire Dao could be nurtured and emerge from this Nanli Fire Domain."

"However, after I achieved Foundation Level, I repeatedly came to investigate but still found nothing. That's why I sought your help, little friend."

The Fire Lord's clone explained a few things.

The Fire Lord, having lived for over 100,000 years, was an old-timer. In his youth, he was also an adventurer, traveling from the eastern to the western part of the universe and gaining significant opportunities in this Nanli Fire Domain.

"Let me re-examine the karma. Perhaps our arrival will bring about some positive changes."

"Little friend, you can arrange it as you see fit. I have no opinion."

Mirror Lin Chen connected with karma and found that the connection between the Fire Lord and the fire hell ring had become much closer, reaching a point where it could barely be pried loose.

The Fire Lord himself had a period of his path to enlightenment within this Nanli Fire Domain, which had already entangled him in karma with the Nanli Fire Domain and the fire hell ring. This was the foundation for whether the Fire Lord could obtain the fire hell ring, a Supreme Treasure.

Only through the initial cause can the ultimate effect occur.

The Fire Lord gained a great opportunity in the Nanli Fire Domain, breaking through from an Upper God to the Main God level. This was the initial cause.

Later, he repeatedly came to the Nanli Fire Domain to investigate the whereabouts of the fire hell ring. This was the stage of karmic development stemming from the initial cause.

Now, the Fire Lord bringing Mirror Lin Chen to the Nanli Fire Domain again, and ultimately obtaining the fire hell ring, this is the ultimate effect.

"Senior, let's go to the place where you obtained your opportunity back then to further deepen the karma, so that I can pry loose the fire hell ring."

"Little friend, I knew you could do it."

The Fire Lord's clone was overjoyed, tore open space, and with a single step, arrived at a silent starfield.

"Little friend, this is where I obtained my opportunity back then. At that time, many Upper Gods engaged in a great battle here, leaving the starfield silent. The fire system rules were also swallowed by the final opportunity, and even after tens of thousands of years, they haven't recovered."

"Senior, it's done."

"Ah, it's done?"

Mirror Lin Chen, however, did not answer the Fire Lord's clone's question. Instead, his true spirit briefly carried the heavenly calculation compass and descended, beginning to connect with karma and anchor the true karma.

The Fire Lord had human luck on him.

As a Foundation Level human, he naturally enjoyed a great deal of human luck. Now, with Lin Chen's human luck as a catalyst, his accumulated human luck began to exert its power. He could already rely on his own human luck, combined with the favor of human luck, to pry loose the dormant fire hell ring and make it manifest.

It was this current experience that made Lin Chen understand why he could use his own human luck to pry loose Foundation Level opportunities, and why he could allow those around him to benefit from opportunities.

The unique human luck on him was merely a catalyst, an anchor for adjusting the direction of human luck.

Precisely because of the presence of this anchor, the human luck of those carried along by Lin Chen could play a greater role, acting directly and directionally.

Just like now.

Lin Chen's human luck merely served to anchor the fire hell ring, but to obtain the fire hell ring, it still depended on the Fire Lord's own connection with the fire hell ring, and the power exerted by the favor of human luck behind him.

The Fire Lord also reacted at this moment, sensing the location of the fire hell ring. The favor of human luck on him was being consumed significantly, clearly to further deepen his connection with the fire hell ring.

The human luck Galaxy, far away in the Federal Territory, was also not stingy with its consumption, increasing its favor towards the Fire Lord to help him acquire the fire hell ring.

The human luck consumed now was simply negligible compared to the human luck that would increase after the Fire Lord obtained the fire hell ring, brought it back to the human race, and bound it with the human race.

Therefore, human luck was not stingy with its consumption, only wanting the Fire Lord to obtain the fire hell ring.

Previously, human luck could not do this simply because the Fire Lord had not anchored to the fire hell ring, making it impossible for human luck to act directionally on the fire hell ring.

Now, with Lin Chen's human luck as an anchor, human luck could naturally exert its power, mobilizing the greatest strength to help the Fire Lord acquire the fire hell ring.
