Daoist Dayan opened his palm.
Five fiery-red spiritual beads the size of pigeon eggs were steaming with a brilliant light.
A charm that made one unable to look away condensed on the light beads.
Fire Essence Crystals.
Fire-type supreme treasure.
A Fire Essence Crystal was worth at least three million spiritual rocks. In the cultivation world, it could cause half-step Heaven Realm cultivators to fight madly for it.
Patriarch Tao Ran’s eyes lit up, and his breathing quickened.
This Fire Essence Crystal was extremely helpful for him to step into the Heaven Realm.
He raised his hand and summoned two Fire Essence Crystals back into his palm, gripping them tightly.
“I thought I’d be lucky to have one or two. I didn’t expect five.
“With these two, I’m confident that I can enter the Heaven Realm in 60 years.”
Patriarch Tao Ran smiled and pointed at the remaining three fire essence crystals. “Take the rest as your reward.”
Can you do that? Han Muye wondered.
We risked our lives to get it. You’re using it as payment for me?
Han Muye glanced at Patriarch Tao Ran.
Patriarch Tao Ran seemed embarrassed by his gaze and whispered, “Well, isn’t our cooperation very smooth?
“Don’t be anxious. When we go to the Fire Source Palace, I’ll definitely help you obtain the Nine Sun Techniques.”
Nine Sun Techniques. This was the reason why Han Muye came here.
Now, be it pills or cultivation experience, he had enough.
All that was left to do was to obtain the Nine Sun Techniques and cultivate with all his might.
Han Muye nodded and took the three Fire Essence Crystals from Daoist Dayan.
He would not tell Patriarch Tao Ran that he had also killed a half-step Heaven Realm expert in the mine and obtained many Fire Essence Stones and Fire Marrow Essence.
This old man is very bad, he thought.
In the distance, more spiritual lights flew over.
Han Muye and Patriarch Tao Ran couldn’t be bothered to kill anymore. They raised their sword lights and left.
….
Fire Source Palace.
In the forest, there were a few halls surrounded by various buildings, forming a small city.
Some of these halls were filled with spiritual light, and some had cracks.
This was not so much the entrance to the Fire Source Palace as their last stronghold.
After thousands of years of being besieged, the Fire Source Palace no longer had much strength to resist.
If not for the fact that this place was hidden and had formed an alliance with the cultivators of the Fire Source World, they would have been discovered and killed by the Ethereal Dao Sect.
At this moment, in the main hall of the Fire Source Palace, Palace Master Wang Luosheng had a solemn expression.
3,000 miles away, there was news that more than a thousand cultivators had been surrounded and killed.
The cultivators over there had sent a message using the Fire Source Palace’s elder’s distress signal.
However, in the Fire Source Palace, he did not see any elder leave.
So, who was crying for help? he wondered.
“Palace Master, I think there’s something fishy going on. It’s best if we ignore it,” a green-robed elder sitting below said loudly.
The aura on his body was about to reach the Core Formation realm.
With such cultivation, he was considered an expert in the Fire Source Palace.
Some of the others nodded and shook their heads at his words.
“Gao Min, if an elder of the Fire Source Palace really falls into the enemy’s hands, won’t we lose everyone in the sect if we don’t help him?”
On the other side, a middle-aged man in a green robe stood up and bowed to the chief. “Palace Master, may I be so bold as to ask you to go and save them?
“Please help, Palace Master.”
Many people in the hall stared.
If not for the fact that the Palace Master’s cultivation was already at the eighth level of the Core Formation realm and he held a Dharma treasure, he would not have been able to stop the people of the Ethereal Dao Sect.
If they wanted to save those who were surrounded and killed, without the Palace Master taking action, the others would only be sending themselves to their deaths.
“Hmph, Yu Yize, at the end of the day, why don’t you save him yourself?” A short and fat old man looked dissatisfied as he spoke in a low voice.
“That’s right. If you don’t go yourself, you’ll put the Palace Master in danger. You’re guilty,” said Elder Gao Min coldly.
In the hall, there was a noisy discussion.
Yu Yize looked at the palace master, Wang Luosheng, and said loudly, “As long as the palace master goes, Yu Yize is willing to travel along.”
Really?
His words made the hall fall silent.
Unconsciously, everyone turned to look at the palace master at the head of the table.
Wang Luosheng’s eyes flickered as he said in a low voice, “I’m also curious about who is being surrounded.
“If it’s the Ethereal Dao Sect’s trap, I also want to know what they want.”
With that, he stood up and looked around. “I’ll make a trip. Elder Zhao Feng will temporarily take the position of Palace Master.”
Below, an old man named Zhao Feng stood up and bowed.
He was an elder in the Fire Source Palace whose cultivation was only inferior to the palace master, Wang Luosheng.
Seventh level of the Golden Core Realm, with powerful combat strength. His reputation could suppress others in the entire Fire Source Palace.
After setting up the palace, Wang Luosheng raised his hand, and a five-foot-long sword appeared on his back.
The sword was covered in dark red flames, and the shadow of a fire dragon appeared on it.
“Senior Yun Long, I’m going to save the surrounded disciple. Please follow me,” Wang Luosheng said in a low voice as he cupped his hands at the sword.
The sword trembled and led the flames to envelop Wang Luosheng, then transformed into a 10-foot-long fire dragon.
Wang Luosheng looked at Yu Yize and said, “Let’s go.”
Yu Yize nodded and landed on the back of the fire dragon.
The dragon let out a long cry and flew away.
In the main hall of the Fire Source Palace, everyone looked at the distant fire dragon and pondered for a moment before dispersing.
The fire dragon flew extremely fast. In just a moment, it had already seen the place where the sword light and spiritual light collided.
“Eh?”
Wang Luosheng, who was standing on the head of the fire dragon, exclaimed in surprise.
“He wasn’t surrounded but fought evenly?”
