Chapter 3222. The Armor Recognizes Its Master (7)

Legend had it that the Fire Qilin Armor possessed extraordinary defensive power. Whoever wore it would be virtually untouchable by any expert below the Heavenly Immortal realm.

And if one could make the Fire Qilin Armor recognize them as its master, the wielder and the armor would fuse as one. In that state, the Fire Qilin Armor's power could be unleashed to its absolute peak.

Not only would Heavenly Immortal realm experts be unable to leave a scratch, but even before a Martial Immortal realm powerhouse, one's life could be preserved.

Previously, Chu Feng had also attempted to communicate with the Fire Qilin Armor, hoping to make it acknowledge him as its master.

Unfortunately, he had failed every time. Chu Feng figured it was because his cultivation was insufficient — once he stepped into the ninth-grade Martial Immortal realm, making the Fire Qilin Armor recognize him as its master would most likely no longer be a problem.

And now, Chu Feng happened to be a ninth-grade Heavenly Immortal.

With that thought in mind, Chu Feng hesitated no longer. He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and focused all his attention on communicating with the Fire Qilin Armor, attempting to make it recognize him.

At this moment, the Nightmare Spirit Clan member that Chu Feng had captured, though restrained, could still see everything Chu Feng was doing.

It had no idea what Chu Feng was doing, nor what he was planning. Upon seeing Chu Feng immediately sit down and close his eyes after hearing about Linghu Lun's strength, it assumed Chu Feng had given up on the idea of going after the Linghu Heavenly Clan.

Unable to help itself, it sneered: "Chu Feng, it's not too late to understand the might of the Linghu Heavenly Clan. Let me go now, then go beg Linghu Lun for mercy. Perhaps he'll still spare you. Otherwise… if he catches you personally, I guarantee your death will be a miserable one."

Boom—

However, the moment those words left its mouth, a colossal surge of flames erupted from Chu Feng's body.

"Wh-what is that?"

Upon seeing the sky-blasting inferno, the Nightmare Spirit Clan member's eyes were instantly filled with terror.

It could feel the terrifying power within those flames — power that was virtually comparable to that of the Martial Immortal realm.

Amid its astonishment, it began to observe more carefully, and faintly, it could make out a silhouette within the churning sea of fire.

That was none other than Chu Feng.

Because of the flames, it couldn't see Chu Feng clearly, but it could make out that he was no longer wearing a simple robe. Instead, he was clad in a blazing crimson armor.

That armor was so dazzling that even surrounded on all sides by raging fire, its imposing presence was impossible to diminish.

"Could it be… that's the legendary Fire Qilin Armor?"

"But even if it is the Fire Qilin Armor, it shouldn't possess such power. Did Chu Feng actually make it recognize him?"

"This Chu Feng — he actually made the Fire Qilin Armor recognize him as its master?"

By now, the Nightmare Spirit Clan member had all but confirmed that it was indeed the Fire Qilin Armor, and that it had already acknowledged Chu Feng as its master.

Although Chu Feng's cultivation had not increased after the recognition, the power of the Fire Qilin Armor far exceeded even its expectations.

Its face was frozen in utter shock, its jaw practically hanging open.

Because it knew all too well that making the Fire Qilin Armor recognize one as its master had absolutely nothing to do with raw cultivation alone.

Otherwise, with so many experts in the Ancestral Martial Starfield, someone would have succeeded long ago.

The most critical factor in making the Fire Qilin Armor recognize its master was talent. Only those with talent sufficiently extraordinary could earn the armor's approval. And clearly… Chu Feng's talent had already won the Fire Qilin Armor's recognition.

Whoosh—

Suddenly, the colossal flames began to contract, and in the blink of an eye, they receded back into Chu Feng's body.
