**Chapter 1133: The Arrogant Little Brat**
The descendant of the Deity Chishui was a young man at the True God ninth stage. Lin Moyu could clearly not see the nine-colored fire lotus, so he had to follow Deity Chishui's instructions.
He stepped out from the flames, and after leaving the protective barrier that Deity Chishui had set up for him, the blue flames immediately pounced on him, wrapping around his body.
The treasures on his body shone brightly, blocking the flames.
These treasures were specifically for resisting flames, and they seemed quite effective.
However, such treasures also had their limits. Once they reached the limit, the treasures would shatter, putting this young man in danger.
Therefore, the entire process had to be fast, and he had to absorb the nine-colored fire lotus before the treasures shattered.
But the nine-colored fire lotus was not so easy to absorb. Just the soul attack from the fire lotus spirit alone was not something an ordinary person could withstand.
With Lin Moyu's soul quality, even Zhu Qiwu had warned him to be careful, let alone this young man before them.
Zhu Qiwu shook his head slightly, knowing that the young man before them would not succeed.
Deity Chishui also seemed to understand this point, feeling a bit helpless, "I still have to try. This is the last time. If I fail again, I won't attempt it anymore in the future."
Zhu Qiwu said, "It's enough. You've risked danger and wasted a lot of time coming here repeatedly. Not to mention, it's also harmful to your own cultivation."
Deity Chishui smiled, "I have no choice. I still have to do something for my clan."
It was evident that he had deep feelings for his own race.
Zhu Qiwu didn't say anything more. Everyone had their own thoughts.
Some were extremely selfish, while others were willing to sacrifice for a greater cause.
Zhu Qiwu transmitted his voice to Lin Moyu, "Actually, Deity Chishui is my senior martial brother. Unfortunately, he was severely injured in his early years for the sake of his race."
"Although he recovered from his injuries later, some aftereffects remained, making it difficult for him to break through."
"He finally managed to reach the ninth stage of the Deity realm, but then he started seeking this nine-colored fire lotus for his clansmen, wasting a lot of time."
"Otherwise, he would have had a chance to advance further..."
In Zhu Qiwu's words, this Deity Chishui before them was actually a heaven-blessed genius.
He had an extremely high cultivation talent and could have gone even further.
However, Lin Moyu felt that Deity Chishui's approach was wrong. If he truly wanted to do something for his race, he should have pushed forward in his cultivation to the very end.
The higher his cultivation, the more he could do.
His current efforts seemed somewhat meaningless.
But as he had thought before, everyone had their own thoughts, and he couldn't judge them with his own values.
Deity Chishui's descendant had already touched the nine-colored fire lotus and started absorbing it.
The Blue Flame Star immediately became turbulent, as if a child was about to have its favorite toy snatched away, and it began to instinctively resist.
The nine-colored fire lotus also erupted with intense flames, enveloping the young man in return.
The treasures on his body made creaking sounds, as if they might shatter at any moment.
The young man let out a strange cry, his face revealing a hint of terror.
If the treasures shattered, he would be devoured by the flames in an instant, leaving not even a single hair behind.
Deity Chishui roared, "Steady your mind, don't panic!"
The young man, filled with terror, tried his best to steady his mind.
At this moment, a blue light shot out from the nine-colored fire lotus, piercing the young man's brow like an arrow.
The fire lotus spirit had taken action, launching a soul attack on the young man.
The young man immediately froze, motionless.
Deity Chishui's eyes widened, "Persevere, you must persevere!"
To absorb the nine-colored fire lotus, one had to not only overcome the extreme high temperature and fierce flames but also withstand the attacks from the fire lotus spirit.
Zhu Qiwu said in a low voice, "This is the attack of the fire lotus spirit. The nine-colored fire lotus has nine petals, and the fire lotus spirit's attack also has nine strikes."
"Only by enduring all nine strikes can one be qualified to absorb the nine-colored fire lotus."
Lin Moyu nodded slightly. Nine strikes, this young man might not be able to withstand them.
Before the first strike ended, another beam of light emerged from the nine-colored fire lotus, and the second strike followed immediately.
The young man's body trembled violently, as if he had seen something terrifying.
Soul attacks were the most insidious. They didn't necessarily directly harm the soul but could sometimes conjure up illusions, triggering one's deepest fears.
If the soul was not strong enough and the will was not firm enough, one could easily be injured or even have their soul shattered.
"Stay steady, guard your soul, use your soul treasures!"
Deity Chishui kept roaring, but his voice was clearly useless to his descendant who was under attack.
The third strike appeared, and the young man trembled even more violently, his face filled with terror.
No one knew what he had seen to make him so afraid.
Then came the fourth strike, the fifth strike.
The young man had reached his limit and let out a miserable scream.
Although the treasures on his body had not completely shattered, his body spontaneously burst into flames.
Deity Chishui's expression changed drastically, and he roared as he unleashed a law to envelop the young man, pulling him back.
Deity Chishui's law extinguished the flames on the young man's body, but by then, the young man had already suffered severe injuries.
Zhu Qiwu said in a low voice, "Being able to endure until the fifth strike is already not bad. Unfortunately, his will was not firm enough, and his soul was not strong enough, causing his heart fire to ignite."
Deity Chishui sighed, "It seems this treasure is destined to have no connection with my clan. Guardian Zhu, please proceed."
Zhu Qiwu nodded, "Go ahead."
Lin Moyu responded with a sound and flew straight towards the nine-colored fire lotus.
Lin Moyu appeared calm and composed, with no trace of smoke or fire on his body.
He was completely enveloped by the blue flames, yet he remained unharmed.
Only now did Deity Chishui notice Lin Moyu. Previously, he had thought Lin Moyu was just Zhu Qiwu's junior, so he hadn't paid much attention.
But now, he realized that Lin Moyu was extraordinary.
Lin Moyu didn't use any treasures and directly ignored the high temperature of the flames.
Moreover, he could actually see the nine-colored fire lotus, even though Zhu Qiwu hadn't pointed out the direction.
Deity Chishui was utterly shocked, unable to utter a single word.
A guess emerged in his mind, and Zhu Qiwu, while paying attention to Lin Moyu, was also observing Deity Chishui.
His gaze flickered, as if he was considering something.
Lin Moyu had already reached the nine-colored fire lotus, but unlike the young man earlier, he didn't touch it.
Instead, he directly and casually sat down, just like a Buddha sitting on a lotus, right on top of the nine-colored fire lotus.
In an instant, the blue flames erupted, and beams of light shone from the nine-colored fire lotus, with the fire lotus spirits almost simultaneously launching attacks on Lin Moyu.
Zhu Qiwu's mouth twitched, and he cursed inwardly, "This little brat is too arrogant."
Deity Chishui was even more dumbfounded, unable to say a word, not understanding why Lin Moyu would do such a thing. Was it confidence or arrogance?
Lin Moyu did this with his own considerations.
He needed to ascend two spells simultaneously, so he had to absorb the nine-colored fire lotus as quickly as possible.
During his observations earlier, he noticed that when the fire lotus spirit launched its attacks, the power of the nine-colored fire lotus seemed to weaken over time.
He speculated that during the stalemate between the two sides, some of their power was consumed.
Lin Moyu hoped to obtain as much power as possible from the nine-colored fire lotus, so he wanted to lure out all the fire lotus spirits at once, then eliminate them as quickly as possible, leaving the nine-colored fire lotus with nowhere to go.
