Chapter 583: Chapter 583: Ice-Strange Fire

But just a breath later, Lu Chen found something odd!

The fire of the Earth Fire, whether inside his Dantian or on his body, he had experienced intimately.

Moreover, this color was vastly different from before!

But the most important thing was that, at this moment, neither the Heavenly Inquiry Spear nor this icy blue Earth Fire caused him any harm!

"Wen Tian? Are you there?"

The panic on Lu Chen’s face quickly dissipated as he turned to call out the name of the spear spirit in his heart.

"Master, I am here...,"

Lu Chen heard a response, but the voice was very weak.

"What on earth is going on, how are you?"

Lu Chen asked hastily.

"It’s a long story," the spear spirit seemed to have gone through a battle that exhausted all his strength. Speaking each word was incredibly difficult, but to clarify things for Lu Chen, he persisted and revealed the reason, "The Earth Fire, it has fused with the Spiritual Power originally within the Heavenly Inquiry Spear..."

Just getting to this point took all of the spear spirit’s energy, and no matter how Lu Chen called out, there was no longer any response.

Lu Chen lowered his head to look at the icy blue flame that completely engulfed his palm, frowning and muttering to himself, "This fire, it has not even a trace of warmth, fused with the previous Spiritual Power... but before, I had no Spiritual Power to command into the Heavenly Inquiry Spear!"

Lu Chen was baffled and didn’t understand why the Earth Fire would undergo such a transformation, thinking he could only wait for the spear spirit to wake again, he had no choice but to leave it at that.

However, the original problem came back to trouble him.

The Heavenly Inquiry Spear was firmly stuck to the palm of his hand, unable to be gripped or removed!

"Does this spear intend to stay attached here forever?"

Lu Chen couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the situation, similarly clueless about how to solve this problem with the change in the Heavenly Inquiry Spear.

"Thinking by myself isn’t any solution," Lu Chen looked towards Li Mo, who was on his last breaths, and also recalled that his battle earlier had not been minor. If it attracted other cultivators, he would be hard-pressed to deal with them in this state. Then he turned his gaze to Chu Zhongtian, sighed, and decided to enter the icy terrain first.

Stepping on the ice crystal fan, Lu Chen flew back to Chu Zhongtian’s side, about to take him and retrieve the Shadowless Sword ice sculpture, when he noticed Chu Zhongtian absentmindedly staring at the Heavenly Inquiry Spear in Lu Chen’s hand.

"Chu Daoist friend?"

Lu Chen waved his hand in front of his eyes.

"Ah? Daoist friend, sorry, I was distracted."

Chu Zhongtian came back to his senses, but instead asked, "That spear... Is it the long magic artifact spear you had before?"

Lu Chen paused, then replied, "Exactly, but I don’t know why, after it was burned by Li Mo’s flame, it underwent this change!"

Chu Zhongtian mused, "Daoist friend, Li Mo’s flame is an Unusual Spirit Fire, and the Ice Spiritual Root is also an Unusual Spirit Root! These two extraordinary forces...I’m afraid they have fused with the ice power within your spear to form the rarely seen Ice-Strange Fire!"

"Ice-Strange Fire?"

Lu Chen was momentarily stunned.

Chu Zhongtian hadn’t guessed correctly, but he had opened up a new line of thinking for him.

Undoubtedly, the basis of this fire was taken from Ji Mingze’s Earth Fire!

He wasn’t using Ice Spiritual Power, and besides, there was no Ice Spiritual Power in the spear!

Could it be because of the Profound Ice Dao Nature?

But the Profound Ice Dao Nature was just a wisp, used to suppress Li Mo earlier!

Lu Chen was perplexed, but didn’t show any confusion. Instead, he responded eagerly, "What’s Ice-Strange Fire?"

This was akin to acknowledging Chu Zhongtian’s theory.

"I don’t know much about Unusual Spirit Fire, you’ll have to understand it on your own! Right now, should we leave first? Just in case other cultivators use this as a pretext...I’m afraid you..."

"That was already my intention."

Lu Chen nodded, first pulling Chu Zhongtian onto the ice crystal fan, then used his powers to take the Shadowless Sword ice sculpture from afar.

"This spear, we can only try to dissolve it in another place."

"Never mind that," Chu Zhongtian said with a wry smile, "I’ve used all my Spiritual Power to activate the Xuan Yun Sword Qi and now I’m weakened. Even if you help me melt the ice sculpture, I won’t be able to wield it and it would just waste your Spiritual Power."

That was quite perceptive.

Lu Chen praised in his mind and carried a man and a sword towards the mountaintop.

Once Chu Zhongtian had acclimated a bit, noticing that Lu Chen still held the Heavenly Inquiry Spear in his hand, unhidden and ungrasped, he curiously asked, "Daoist friend, that spear of yours?"

Lu Chen casually replied, "Like with the appearance of the Ice-Strange Fire, it seems I’ve lost control over the spear. I can’t throw it away nor can I grip it tightly."

Chu Zhongtian’s expression became strange, "Have you tried... absorbing it into your body?"

"Absorb it into my body?"

Lu Chen was taken aback.

"Shouldn’t it be your Lifebound Magic Weapon? It might have undergone some changes after being scorched by the flame, possibly becoming a new Magic Artifact entirely, hence the unfamiliarity. Nonetheless, the spear must surely bear your blood essence or other marks. Try absorbing it, that should solve the problem!"

"Really?"

Lu Chen responded, and then with a thought within his heart!
