A voice seemed to be calling, guided by the Mental Energy Seed left within the Crimson Lotus. Step's Mental Power spread out, and in a mysterious state, the Mental Energy Seed melted and coalesced into a mark, imprinting itself within the Crimson Lotus, leaving behind his Soul Breath.
At the moment this mark was born, Step felt that he had Avatar-transformed into the Crimson Lotus, slowly establishing a connection with its essence.
This was a marvelous process, as if his entire soul was divided into two parts along the extension of Mental Power; one part remained within himself while the other gradually entered the Crimson Lotus in response to the call of the Mental Energy Seed.
Like a fish leaping from water, he saw his own reflection on the surface, an experience unlike any other. It was not like looking into a mirror; this sensation appeared in Step's heart when the Red Entity, transformed from the Crimson Lotus, opened its eyes within the Outer Xuan Fire Sealing.
He saw himself—specifically, through his eyes, he saw the Crimson Lotus Incarnation. In turn, the shadow of himself appeared in the eyes of the Crimson Lotus Incarnation. This was an indescribable scene; he was the Crimson Lotus, and the Crimson Lotus was him. What he saw was simply himself.
"Hahaha! Good news! The soul mark has been successfully imprinted onto your Crimson Lotus Incarnation. As long as no extraordinary beings intervene, no one can erase this soul mark. As your connection with the Crimson Lotus Incarnation deepens in the future, even extraordinary beings may not be able to forcibly erase this soul mark."
Lange laughed heartily, his eyes squinting with satisfaction as he stroked his beard.
"Deepening connection?" Hearing Lange's words, Bu Xin's spirit stirred. With control, the features of the Crimson Lotus Incarnation began to change gradually.
The originally vague features transformed from red skin to that of an ordinary person’s complexion. Eventually, the appearance of the Crimson Lotus Incarnation completely morphed into Step's likeness—almost like identical twins—except for its long red hair that gave it a fierce and wild aura.
With a loud bang, the Outer Xuan Fire Sealing surrounding the Crimson Lotus Incarnation suddenly shattered. Wisps of purple flames gathered in mid-air and ultimately formed a Flame Seed that landed in the palm of the Crimson Lotus Incarnation.
This Flame Seed felt cool to touch, lacking any of the expected heat from flames. However, within it, Step sensed a terrifying aura of Destruction; it seemed that if this Flame Seed were to explode, it would turn everything into a Sea of Fire, annihilating all life.
"Fortunately, this Outer Profound Fire has already been refined by Star God Ethan and cannot unleash its fiery power. Otherwise, holding such an object would be like carrying a ticking bomb that could explode at any moment."
Gazing at the Flame Seed resting quietly in his palm, Step's eyes flickered. After pondering for a moment, he controlled the Crimson Lotus Incarnation and suddenly tossed this purple glass-like Flame Seed into his mouth and swallowed it.
This sudden action startled Lange; he wanted to scold him but then seemed to think of something and fell silent with flickering eyes.
Step's action was not reckless; he had considered it carefully. Since the key to further advancing the Crimson Lotus Incarnation lay in this Flame Seed, he decided to swallow it into the belly of the Crimson Lotus. Given its immunity to fire, although this Outer Profound Fire was extraordinary, it could only restrain him without causing fatal harm.
At this moment, swallowing this Flame Seed made from Outer Profound Fire carried risks but evidently offered more benefits. If this Flame Seed stayed inside the Crimson Lotus for an extended period, it might gradually form some connection with the Crimson Lotus Incarnation through time’s nurturing. Moreover, it could potentially lead to insights into more profound fire-related laws.
Of course, this was merely Step's speculation; he now hoped that one day this Flame Seed would linger within the Crimson Lotus Incarnation like food in a stomach—slowly digested and providing nourishment for himself.
"I never expected this body to be so powerful and terrifying; no wonder it's infinitely close to being a Demigod—the Demon Spirit Crimson Lotus! Moreover, it seems that this Crimson Lotus Incarnation can cultivate on its own. Although its internal energy is currently pitifully scarce, there are no restrictions from Acupoints or meridians; as long as enough energy is stored up, it can break through its current level."
Step's eyes sparkled with excitement as he stepped forward to examine the Crimson Lotus Incarnation in awe. At that moment, the Crimson Lotus Incarnation also gradually transformed into an ordinary person's size and matched Step's height. It occasionally clenched its fists as if adapting to its newfound strength.
Bu opened his personal attribute panel, and next to his own attributes, there was an additional attribute panel belonging to the Crimson Lotus Incarnation.
"Character: Bu (Demon Spirit Incarnation) Race: Demon Alignment: Neutral
Strength: 156 Agility: 14 Constitution: 16 Spirit: 81 Energy: 16/16
Class: None Faith: None Level: 11 Body Condition: Normal 100%.
Racial Gift (Passive): Level 11 Fire's Right. Effect: ???"
"The Crimson Lotus Incarnation has no Experience points, which I expected. If I want to advance the Crimson Lotus further, it seems I can only pin my hopes on Outer Profound Fire.
However, this suddenly appearing Racial Gift is a bit strange. I can see the attributes of Locke and Ivan, and neither of them has any Racial Gift. Could it be that the appearance of this Racial Gift requires certain specific conditions?
Although the effect of the Crimson Lotus's Racial Gift is unknown, from the little information revealed, I can roughly guess that this Racial Gift is passively triggered and is also known as Fire's Right. It likely allows for flame manipulation and immunity to fire effects.
Perhaps once Fire's Right reaches level 1, the effect of this Racial Gift will be even stronger, similar to flames like Outer Profound Fire, which will no longer pose any threat."
After some speculation, Bu smiled slightly, extremely satisfied with the attribute status of the Crimson Lotus Incarnation.
The basic attributes of this Crimson Lotus Incarnation exceeded his own by more than double. If he were to equip it with Amplification Gear in the future, it would become even more powerful. He also discovered that all the skills he had learned were possessed by this External Avatar. Although he couldn't use them yet due to a lack of energy, it was still good news.
With this External Avatar providing protection, even if he encountered a level 5 Intermediate powerhouse in the future, he could at least manage to survive.
"Since you can now control this External Avatar, I believe I need not worry about your safety anymore. You killed the heir of the Arthur Royal Family, and they will not let you go easily. This matter is not something I can interfere with, so you will have to rely on your own abilities.
Learn the two Skill Books I gave you, and with your cleverness, you won't suffer any losses when entering the Holy Light Academy in the future.
You can return now. Two years later, when the Void Temple opens, I will go to the Holy Light Academy in the Dysia Kingdom to find you. At that time, I will tell you what I need you to help me with.
I hope by then you have grown strong enough."
There was a hint of sighing in Lange's words as he looked at Bu, who was practicing punches and kicks to adapt to the Crimson Lotus Incarnation, seemingly anticipating his growth in two years.
"You'll come looking for me in two years?" Bu asked in surprise. Seeing Lange nod with a smile, he didn't know what else to say.
Initially wary of this old man who had lived for over two hundred years, Bu found through their interaction today that this old man wasn't too bad. Although their relationship was still one of mutual use at present, instinctively Bu felt that this old man was at least much more trustworthy than Warren.
After all, when it comes to generosity, Warren can't compare to the other party. Just based on this point, Bu feels that Old Guy is somewhat closer.
"Before you leave, I should first lift the seal within you. Previously, to prevent you from being possessed by Hong Lian, I had to take some precautions. Fortunately, these measures are no longer necessary," Lange said with a smile, gesturing for Bu to come closer.
Hearing this, Bu realized that the energy within him was completely unable to circulate. Upon looking inward, he discovered that a gray-white seal had appeared in his body at some point, identical to the gray-white seal that had previously sealed Habea III's energy field.
"This old bastard," Bu Xin cursed inwardly, darkening his face as he approached Lange.
Now he was certain that if he had not successfully fused with Hong Lian in the end, and if Hong Lian's resentment had ultimately taken over his body, Lange would not have shown any mercy. When it came time to strike, he would not let the tiger return to the mountain.
Having lived for over two hundred years and reached a high-level of power, such a character could not be indecisive. His mind had been honed into a cunning one through years of conflict. If he found someone useful, it was fine; if they were of no use and instead became a burden, the outcome would be obvious.
As Bu approached, Lange smiled and extended his hands. A vast energy surged like a roaring river, creating a sudden gust of wind that enveloped the entire room.
"Unseal." A low shout rang out as Lange pointed downwards, seemingly containing some special mystery. Bu's body trembled as the energy that had been unable to move within him suddenly erupted. At the same time, gray and white gases burst forth from his pores, causing countless needle-like stings that made Bu involuntarily groan.
"Scatter." At the moment the gray and white gases appeared, Lange waved his hand casually, and a fierce wind swept through, dispersing the gray and white gases surrounding Bu completely.
