Flame Valley!

In the eyes of others, it’s a place one should never go. Martial Artists with slightly weaker Cultivation Realms, as long as they approach the edge of Flame Valley, will end up with their bodies and souls obliterated, turning to ashes!

Even strong Martial Artists find it extremely difficult to enter Flame Valley. Once, an elder generation expert managed to enter the first layer of Flame Valley and come out unharmed, becoming a legend, which is enough to prove the terrifying nature of Flame Valley!

Ye Tianchen is also very familiar with Flame Valley. To save Dongfang Meng, he entered Flame Valley, and later to temper his body, he entered Flame Valley again, using the Fire God Gourd to collect some of the flame within Flame Valley, and made friends with Little Fire Qilin, something many people don’t know!

Flame Valley has a total of four layers. Ye Tianchen is able to enter the second layer of Flame Valley, which makes him one of the very few. He is also very eager to know what exists in the third layer of Flame Valley, and what lies at the center of the fourth layer? Why has Flame Valley persisted since Ancient Times and continues to burn to this day, never ceasing? It’s truly puzzling.

However, for the Fire God Sacred Land, which focuses on the cultivation of Fire Power and passing on the power of Fire Taoist, Flame Valley has long been a place that every disciple of the Fire God Sacred Land must go. It is the place they must train in!

Since Ancient times, the Fire God left words that every disciple of the Fire God Sacred Land, after reaching a certain stage of growth, must enter Flame Valley. Only by enduring the trials and training within can they possibly truly comprehend the supreme power of Fire Taoist. Of course, failure means turning to ashes, body and soul obliterated. However, the later generations of the Fire God Sacred Land disciples always remember the Fire God’s legacy. Most importantly, who wouldn’t want to gain greater power? Everyone would take the risk for the growth of power!

But from Ancient times to now, no one has ever managed to enter Flame Valley, which is why the Fire God Sacred Land has continually declined. Because when the Ancient Fire God left the Fire God Sacred Land, he said that if the disciples wish to truly comprehend the mysteries of Fire Power, they must enter Flame Valley. In other words, if they cannot enter Flame Valley, it will be very difficult, if not impossible, to comprehend the mysteries of Fire Power.

Originally, the Fire God Sacred Land decided to let Huo Xianer and Huo Litian venture into Flame Valley together. If both succeeded, it would undoubtedly elevate their understanding of Fire Power, naturally leading to a great increase in the reputation and strength of the Fire God Sacred Land. However, an unexpected incident occurred, mainly because Huo Xun, the sanctimonious old guy, tore off his mask and revealed his hideous side.

”What exactly is inside Flame Valley, what exactly exists?” Huo Xun coldly asked Ye Tianchen.

”Old man, do you think I would tell you? If you want to know, go see for yourself!” Ye Tianchen retorted disdainfully.

”Hmph, it seems you have too many secrets on you. I won’t kill you so soon!” Huo Xun snorted coldly, looking at Ye Tianchen ruthlessly.

Roar!

A Fire Dragon flew out of Huo Xun’s hand, carrying runes that astonished Ye Tianchen, reaching him in an instant, spitting out potent flames!

”Looks like I really need to use this Fire God Gourd!”

Buzz!

Ye Tianchen waved his right hand, making the Fire God Gourd appear in his hand, which shocked Huo Xun and Huo Litian, their eyes sparkling. Yet, Ye Tianchen opened the gourd’s lid and, looking at the powerful Fire Dragon spewing flames, said, ”Be good, come inside!”

Receive!

The ”Receive” command activated, causing a surge of Divine Power from the Fire God Gourd to pull the arrogant Fire Dragon inside, making Huo Xun scowl and angrily say, ”You dare use our Fire God Sacred Land’s ancestral Treasure to fight me, you’re truly deserving of death!”

”Old thing, even if this Fire God Gourd is an ancestral item of the Fire God Sacred Land, it’s still something that the Ancient Fire God Lineage is entitled to, not yours, so don’t be too selfish, or you will end up with nothing!” Ye Tianchen commented unhappily.

”Fire God Gourd, the Fire God Gourd, it must be mine, kill!” Huo Xun, seemingly lost in madness, intended to acquire the Fire God Gourd at all costs, rushing forward frantically!

Ye Tianchen frowned, just about to activate the Fire God Gourd to deal with this old man, but as he prepared to mobilize the Martial Arts True Qi within him, he felt a tumult of blood coursing through his organs, an urge to spit blood, forcing him to frown. It seems the injuries are still too severe; to fully recover will take time. After battling Huo Litian and now clashing with this old Huo Xun for a few rounds, he was beginning to overextend himself. Continuing like this wouldn’t do!

Swish!

In a flash, Ye Tianchen was by Huo Xianer’s side, swiftly scooping her up in a princess carry and retreating quickly. Ye Tianchen was not someone who dithers over actions. In his current state, there was no way he could engage Huo Xun in an all-out battle. To fight desperately now would be courting death, an act of utter foolishness and folly!

”Trying to escape? It’s not that easy!” Huo Xun said coldly, his hands constantly moving.

Clatter!

Suddenly, in this world, a multitude of runes appeared, and these runes were burning. A large number of fire runes were ablaze, enveloping Ye Tianchen and Huo Xianer. Ye Tianchen punched these fire runes but found them utterly unfazed, causing him to frown. It seemed that this old guy, Huo Xun, was indeed very powerful, an adversary not to be underestimated.

”You won’t escape, you must die!” Huo Xun said viciously.

Boom!

Suddenly, outside the rune cage, a blaze of fire appeared. As the blaze emerged, it tore open a gap in the rune cage. In the blink of an eye, Ye Tianchen, carrying Huo Xianer, rushed out of the rune cage and vanished instantly!

”Huh? Huo Tian, what does this mean?” Huo Xun was stunned, regaining his senses and trembling with rage as he asked.

Swoosh!

A figure appeared on the platform, and Huo Xun looked coldly at this figure, while Huo Litian came to his senses and respectfully said, ”Greetings, Holy Master!”

The Holy Master of the Fire God Sacred Land, Huo Tian, was a middle-aged man. In the lifespan of a Martial Artist, having lived for over three hundred years, he was still considered young. He often trained outside and seldom appeared in the Fire God Sacred Land. What kind of person he was, what kind of cultivation realm he had, and what kind of character he possessed were things very few people knew. Ever since Huo Tian became the Holy Master, he almost never managed the affairs of the Fire God Sacred Land, remaining very mysterious, with no one knowing what he was up to!

”It’s nothing, I just feel that it’s not the right time to kill Huo Xianer,” Huo Tian turned to look at Huo Xun and said indifferently.

”Huh? Have you decided to side with the Ancient Fire God Bloodline Heritage Clan? Then you are my enemy, Huo Xun!” Huo Xun frowned and asked coldly.

”So what if I am? So what if I’m not? I know what you’re thinking, what schemes you’re plotting, and I can also tell you, I will not stand with any side, I will only stand with my own kind!” Huo Tian looked at Huo Xun coldly and said.

”Hahaha, as the Holy Master of the Fire God Sacred Land, you’re self-serving, not knowing how to prioritize the bigger picture for the entire Fire God Sacred Land. I wonder how you ever became the Holy Master in the first place!” Huo Xun couldn’t help but laugh as he said.

”Kill, kill all the competitors, wasn’t I the only candidate for Holy Master?” Huo Tian said with a chilling tone.

”Quite the killer. Then why not let me kill Huo Xianer? Or do you want to hunt her down yourself?” Huo Xun frowned and asked.

”Wrong, you and I understand our own thoughts clearly. However, I am, after all, the Holy Master of the Fire God Sacred Land, and you are, after all, the Supreme Elder of the Fire God Sacred Land, renowned both inside and outside the Sacred Land. It’s too early, too direct to reveal our intentions. After all, a large part of the people in the Fire God Sacred Land still respect the bloodline inheritance of the Ancient Fire God, viewing Huo Xianer as the next Fire God, the next Holy Master of the Sacred Land. Sometimes, we have to consider the internal and external public opinion. Haven’t you always been cautious? Otherwise, you would have become the Holy Master yourself long ago!” Huo Tian said looking at Huo Xun.

”You know me well? Then you should know that letting Huo Xianer go doesn’t matter, letting Ye Tianchen go means giving up the Fire God Gourd. Do I need to tell you its importance?” Huo Xun asked coldly, looking at Huo Tian.

”No, Huo Xianer must die. For you, for me, for both of us, Huo Xianer is a stumbling block that must be removed sooner or later. It’s just unexpected that halfway through, a Ye Tianchen would appear, carrying the Ancient Fire God’s treasure, the Fire God Gourd. That’s both a good thing and a bad thing for us!” Huo Tian thought for a moment and said.

”I don’t want to hear nonsense!” Huo Xun said impatiently.

”The reason I stopped you from killing Huo Xianer now is because, after all, this is the Fire God Sacred Land. If you’re going to kill her, it must be done quietly, elsewhere. Moreover, those loyal to the Ancient Fire God Bloodline Heritage are not yet fully controlled. Huo Xianer’s death could provoke their rage, which is a consideration that can’t be ignored. As for Ye Tianchen, even if the Fire God Gourd is with him, due to his relationship with Huo Xianer, it will end up with Huo Xianer sooner or later. By then, we only need to kill Huo Xianer...” Huo Tian said with a sinister smile. (To be continued.
