Chapter 98

Amidst the rolling magma, intense heat waves occasionally surged forth, sweeping over Lin Feng, causing him to be drenched in sweat!!

"Huh, look, what's that?" Suddenly, the Fire Kirin pointed towards the magma world.

Lin Feng looked over and saw a massive creature floating in the magma world, but its body was swallowed by the magma, making it unclear what it was.

Lin Feng said, "It looks like a fierce beast."

"Find a way to bring it up," the Fire Kirin said.

Lin Feng replied, "I can't go into this magma world, you go and bring it up and see."

The Fire Kirin rolled its eyes in anger and said, "I'm not your errand boy."

Although the Fire Kirin was extremely dissatisfied, it eventually jumped into the magma.

The Fire Kirin, a divine beast born from flames, naturally did not fear the magma.

Bang.

The Fire Kirin dragged the massive creature to the shore and pushed it up.

The Fire Kirin also climbed up.

It was a fierce beast, with a body covered in fiery red scales, and it had two heads, the left one like a tiger and the right one like a lion!

This was the "Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast."

The *Classic of Mountains and Seas* records a beast with a body covered in fiery red scales, born in the magma, with two heads, the left one like a tiger and the right one like a lion. This beast is called the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast.

Lin Feng said, "It's actually the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast. According to legend, this is an ancient and extremely powerful fierce beast, living in the magma world. This Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast should be the dominant force in this area, right? Even the Sky-Splitting Eagle dares not easily enter this area. It seems the Sky-Splitting Eagle also fears the power of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast. But how could such a powerful fierce beast die here?"

The Fire Kirin said, "Look, there's a wound on the abdomen of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast."

Lin Feng looked over and indeed saw a large wound on the abdomen of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast.

The Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast was a hundred meters long, like a small mountain. Even in death, its aura was terrifying.

Due to the powerful defensive capabilities of this fierce beast's scales, it was extremely difficult to break through its defenses from the outside.

Lin Feng said, "Could it be that the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast swallowed something? Then that thing attacked the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast from inside its abdomen, leading to a mutual destruction and both dying?"

"Cut open the abdomen of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast and take a look," the Fire Kirin said.

"Okay."

Lin Feng nodded.

He took out a dagger from his spirit ring and slowly cut open the abdomen of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast.

Buzz.

A shocking cold aura shot out from the abdomen of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast.

The power was extremely astonishing!

The cold aura shot towards Lin Feng.

Lin Feng reacted quickly and dodged to the side.

The cold aura flew to the distance and directly pierced through the rock wall.

"Whoa..."

Lin Feng drew a sharp breath, such a terrifying cold aura.

What could have shot it out?

The power was too strong!

Lin Feng continued to cut the body of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast with the dagger.

Finally, the body of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast was cut open.

A pitch-black sword emitting a bone-chilling cold aura appeared in Lin Feng's line of sight.

"It's a treasure sword."

Lin Feng exclaimed in surprise.

The sword lay horizontally inside the body of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast, emitting a cold aura that made one's soul tremble.

"Look, there's also a corpse inside the body of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast. It seems the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast fought with a human expert and swallowed the human expert. The human expert, in their dying moments, launched a fatal counterattack and killed the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast," the Fire Kirin said.

Lin Feng nodded.

He took out the treasure sword.

The sword was thirty-seven inches long, four and a half inches wide, and 0.9 inches thick. It was heavy in his hand, and Lin Feng estimated it weighed about 800 pounds.

"What a heavy sword."

Lin Feng was surprised.

"This is the Black Dragon Sword," the Fire Kirin said in surprise.

"Black Dragon Sword? What kind of sword is this? Is it very famous?" Lin Feng asked.

"Have you heard of the Divine Sword Catalogue?" the Fire Kirin asked, looking at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng shook his head.

This was the first time he had heard of the so-called Divine Sword Catalogue.

The Fire Kirin pursed its lips and said, "It's understandable. You, a low-level cultivator from a small place, not knowing the Divine Sword Catalogue is normal!"

Lin Feng couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Tell me about the Divine Sword Catalogue."

"The Divine Sword Catalogue is a book that circulates in the Ninety-Nine States, recording 108 treasure swords. Any one of these swords is considered a supreme treasure."

The Fire Kirin looked at the Black Dragon Sword in Lin Feng's hand and said, "The Black Dragon Sword ranks 72nd in the Divine Sword Catalogue. This sword is forged from meteoric iron, and the blacksmith hunted a black dragon, extracting its soul and embedding it into the Black Dragon Sword, making it the sword's soul. The Black Dragon Sword is thus named."

"What? Hunted a dragon? As the sword's soul?" Lin Feng's hand trembled, almost dropping the Black Dragon Sword.

"You've had a stroke of luck," the Fire Kirin said. "You need to use your blood to consecrate it to refine the Black Dragon Sword!"

Lin Feng nodded!

He bit his finger, and drops of blood fell onto the Black Dragon Sword.

Instantly!

Lin Feng and the Black Dragon Sword formed a mysterious and tight connection.

"Slash."

Lin Feng lightly shouted, and a sword beam a hundred meters long instantly condensed and slashed towards the distance, piercing through a rock several hundred meters high.

"A casual slash, and a hundred-meter sword beam?"

Lin Feng was dumbfounded.

The Black Dragon Sword!

Its power was too strong!

"Do you think the divine swords in the Divine Sword Catalogue are all overrated? Any one of these divine swords is enough to make ancient families mobilize their entire forces," the Fire Kirin said, pursing its lips. "However, I heard that the Black Dragon Sword's soul, the black dragon, was injured in a peak battle and fell into a deep sleep, disappearing without a trace. I didn't expect it to appear here. If the black dragon soul awakens, the Black Dragon Sword will be even more powerful. With your current cultivation, you could even kill a martial general-level expert with one slash if the black dragon soul awakens."

"Ah, so powerful."

Lin Feng was surprised and extremely delighted. Indeed, it lived up to being the 72nd-ranked supreme treasure in the Divine Sword Catalogue.

He put away the Black Dragon Sword and quickly left. Lin Feng crossed the valley, evaded the Sky-Splitting Eagle, and continued towards the Dragon Lake. One day after Lin Feng left.

A figure arrived in this valley!

It was the young master of the Bai family, Bai Xuantian!

"This is the place, Black Dragon Sword, I'm here!"

Bai Xuantian entered the cave and saw the massive corpse of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast. He quickly ran over to search for the Black Dragon Sword.

"The abdomen is cut open, could it be?" Bai Xuantian's face changed slightly when he saw the cut abdomen of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast. He thought of a possibility, and his face turned extremely gloomy.

He searched inside the body of the Crimson Flame Tiger-Lion Beast but found no trace of the Black Dragon Sword!

Bai Xuantian roared like a madman, "How could this be? I, Bai Xuantian, spent three whole years, expended countless efforts, and followed countless clues to find the whereabouts of the Black Dragon Sword. Who? Beat me to it? Stole my Black Dragon Sword?"

Puff!

Bai Xuantian, overwhelmed with anger, spat out a mouthful of blood.
