dodging several waves of alien cultivators in the middle, Lu Xia Tian returned to the hiding place in the Mist Forbidden Land, only to find that the entrance had signs of movement. Lu Xia Tian's hear...The only thing to do now is to observe the situation. The fire is getting bigger and bigger, so cultivators from this area will definitely come to take a look. Let's think about how to deal with the situation ahead. Lu Xia Tian floated in the air, watching the fire on the ground grow larger and larger. Looking around, the fire had spread over a radius of a hundred miles. The little fire crow was wrapped in a crimson light shield formed by the fire-type spirit crystal. In this sea of fire, it wasn't particularly noticeable.
Lu Xia Tian carefully watched the changes in the little crow's expression.
“Hmm,” Lu Xia Tian was worried about how the little Fire Crow was doing in the sea of fire, when suddenly he felt a slight fluctuation coming from the southwest.
"It seems a master has come to inspect this inferno."
A hint of hesitation flashed across Lu Xiaitian's face. Before these Nascent Soul cultivators arrived, troops from the Red Leaf State had already rushed to the scene, intending to control the fire. This garrison wasn't particularly elite; there were dozens of Golden Core cultivators, many of whom urged their cloud-rain flags for rain, trying to quell the flames. However, even Lu Xiaitian was helpless against this fire-attributed spirit crystal. What could these Golden Core cultivators possibly accomplishThese Golden Core cultivators used their magic power to incite their cloud-rain flags for rain, but unfortunately, all the water spiritual energy around them had been evaporated. Where could they draw upon water spiritual power from Rain didn't come, and instead, several cloud-rain flags were set ablaze. These Golden Core cultivators finally gave up. Seeing that they couldn't control the fire and afraid to get too close, they retreated while calling for reinforcements from their Nascent Soul ancestors.
"Such a huge inferno! This place was originally abundant with water spiritual energy. Why would such a large sea of fire erupt Decades ago, when this old man passed through You Shan Prefecture, he happened to witness the birth of a Flame Corpse with the Xuan Ba bloodline. Hundreds of miles around turned into scorched earth. Could it be that a demonic creature has also been born here" The first elder, with white beard and hair, wore a green square scarf on his head, like a renowned scholar from ages past.
“It’s probably not as Brother Cheng said. When demonic creatures appear, they must be rampant with demonic energy. The common people in one area would have long been harmed by demonic energy. There was nothing unusual about the mountain and forest people before this. It probably wasn't caused by demons.” A woman in a purple dress shook her head and said, then looked at the young swordsman beside her, “Master Muye, you have extensive knowledge. What do you think of this situation This place is near my family’s territory, and we can’t solve it with troops for the time being. My Meng family has the responsibility to pacify this area.”
"When something unusual happens, there must be a demon. There are strange phenomena here, but it's not caused by demons or monsters. There must be a treasure, even causing the earth fire to appear. Perhaps a fire-type treasure is about to be born." The person called Young Master Mukino was indeed Mukino Chanting. Just like Cheng Dexiang, he came to Meng's house as a guest. Coincidentally, there were unusual celestial phenomena here, so Madam Meng Rujun, in purple robes, invited both Mr. Cheng Dexiang and Young Master Mukino to come together.
“A fire-elemental treasure” Cheng Dexiang’s eyes lit up. “Mrs. Meng, this old man happens to be a cultivator of the fire element. If there is a fire-elemental treasure, this old man would only be honored to receive it. You two come together, and we can share the benefits equally. This old man won’t let you two return empty-handed. How about it”
"Brother Cheng, there's no need to be so anxious. If we don't need it, we naturally won't compete with you. It would be a waste of the harmony between us. Of course, if this is a rare courtesy, we can talk about it later. Besides, this matter is very strange, coming out of nowhere. Whether there's something else going on or an extraordinary treasure has appeared, it's hard to say."
Muye Changting chuckled with amusement. These two had formed their nascent soul hundreds of years before him, but in the Dao, seniority matters not. Those who have attained enlightenment are the masters. Right now, his cultivation base was comparable to these two Nascent Soul cultivators. In the future, he was bound to surpass them. If anything extraordinary ever appeared, Muye Changting naturally wouldn't be polite with them.
Two figures arrived together, and the woman with the oval face at the front saw Muye Changting and her eyes lit up. "Brother, why are you here too Did you hear that a fire-type spirit beast was born here" The people who came were exactly Muye Changshui and Fang Ling, two women.
"That's right, you wouldn't be here with such esteemed guests accompanying Lord Xiang. What brings you to this commotion"
Makino Chanting laughed, but on the faces of Cheng Dexiang and Meng Rujun, there was a slight change. The Makino family's recent momentum was quite strong. Makino Changshui had a good fortune, his cultivation progressed rapidly, and he became a Yuan Ying cultivator two years ago. And Makino Chanting becoming a Daoist partner with Fang Ling added two more Yuan Ying cultivators to the Makino family. Now that the three of them appeared here together, if any treasure appeared, they might not be able to compete for it.
“That distinguished guest from the Xiangdu, she wants to borrow a treasure from your elder brother. However, her personality is aloof and cold, I couldn't say much to her. She's just someone from Xiangdu. If your elder brother doesn't lend her the Kuiyang Golden Lock, let’s see how she will find the treasure.”When mentioning that woman from Xiangdu, Muye Changshui pouted her lips. As someone who was born into a family and had excellent cultivation talent, she was treated as a precious jewel by her family and held herself in high regard. Naturally, she didn't have any good feelings towards this noblewoman from the imperial family who came from Xiangdu.”
"Little sister, don't just casually speak like that. This person is not only from a distinguished background, but his own strength is something our 牧野 family can't afford to offend. The fact that the Qiyáng golden lock in my hand could be useful to him is also the luck of our 牧野 family. As long as he shows gratitude, it will be enough to offset one disaster in the future."
Upon hearing Makino Nagamizu's words, Makino Changting hurriedly stopped him. Though he hadn't seen the true face of the extraordinary woman who had come with Xiang Du, Makino Changting was deeply impressed by her skill. Although they were both Yuan Ying cultivators, the other party's strength was already beyond his reach.
“Is that really possible” Makino Nagamitsu muttered softly.
"Indeed, extraordinary and unfathomably powerful." Fang Ling exchanged glances with the woman, both showing a hint of apprehension on their faces.
“Alright, let’s not mention her then. Out of sight, out of mind. Brother, the celestial phenomena here are so astounding. Even from afar, we can't make out anything. Why don't we go into this sea of fire and have a look” Mu Ye Changshui had recently broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage. After two years of seclusion, he couldn't contain his excitement any longer. Looking at the sea of fire that even triggered geothermal activity, he suspected something peculiar was happening. His face was full of interest.
“Well then, let's go in and have a look. What do Brother Cheng and Madam Meng think” Muye Changting nodded.
“I was just thinking the same thing. However, this phenomenon has awakened the earth’s fire, which is no small matter. Although our cultivation levels are not low, we still need to be more careful.” Cheng Dexiang said with a cautious expression.
Five people agreed on a plan, each activating their magical defenses and slowly entering the sea of fire.

“Such pure fire energy!” As the several people entered the sea of fire, the flickering flames illuminated their faces red. However, this wildfire that raged across the mountains and plains did not harm them in the slightest. Only after entering the sea of fire for nearly a hundred miles, did Cheng Dexiang, Meng Rujun, Muye Changting, and the others' expressions become increasingly astonished.
