Chapter 103: Trip to the Burning Flame Valley
🕑 Added 2023-06-14 23:41:49 +0000 UTCUpon returning to the Soul Clan, Hun Tiandi arranged accommodations for Zi Yan and Xiao Yi Xian before summoning the Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan.
His gaze fell upon Hun Sha, one of the Four Demon Saints, as he asked, "Hun Sha, any news from the Gu Clan?"
Hun Sha replied, "Clan Leader, the Gu Clan is planning to employ a two-pronged strategy. On one hand, they offer the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Jade to us, and on the other hand, they are preparing for war against our Soul Clan!"
"War?" Hun Tiandi was momentarily stunned, showing a hint of surprise.
"Where does Gu Yuan find the courage? Has he changed his ways? Could it be that my previous actions, which forced him and assisted him in unblocking his sights, have made him see the light?"
"To wage war against the Soul Clan, very well!" The corners of Hun Tiandi's mouth curled up inexplicably, revealing a sinister smile.
"Hun Sha, is our Soul Clan prepared for the war? We mustn't be caught off guard by the Gu Clan," Hun Tiandi said, his tone filled with assurance.
"Clan Leader, rest assured, I have made preparations as soon as I received the news. We won't be caught off guard by the Gu Clan," Hun Sha replied confidently.
"Good!"
After discussing some matters with the Four Demon Saints, they left. As they departed, a black-robed man appeared in the great hall.
"Greetings, Clan Leader!" The black-robed man bowed slightly to Hun Tiandi.
Don't ask who the black-robed man is. He is none other than Soul Clan's top alchemist, Hun Kong.
Hun Tiandi wasted no time and asked directly, "Hun Kong, how many days does it take to refine a pill that can suppress the Calamity Poison?"
Hun Kong pondered for a moment and said, "It depends on the grade of the pill you want to refine, whether it's a seventh-grade, eighth-grade, or ninth-grade pill."
Hun Tiandi replied, "The best one, a ninth-grade pill!"
"In that case, some preparation is necessary. After all, refining a ninth-grade pill is no small matter. If you need it urgently, I will immediately make arrangements and start the refining process!" Hun Kong explained.
Hun Tiandi said, "You can start making arrangements first!"
"Understood!"
After Hun Kong left, only Hun Tiandi remained in the great hall.
Since Gu Yuan was preparing to go to war with the Soul Clan, Hun Tiandi naturally needed to make adequate preparations to ensure Gu Yuan's defeat and make him realize the might of Hun Tiandi.
The Central Continent was vast, with numerous forces. Among them, the most famous and representative forces of the Central Continent were: One Tower, One Hall, Two Sects, Three Valleys, and Four Square Pavilions.
One Tower: Alchemy Tower.
One Hall: Soul Hall. Two Sects: Flower Sect, Heavenly Abyss Sect.
Three Valleys: Glacier Valley, Burning Flame Valley, Sound Valley.
Four Square Pavilions: Falling Star Pavilion, Myriad Sword Pavilion, Wind and Thunder Pavilion, Yellow Springs Pavilion.
The Central Continent is vast, but there is nowhere that Hun Tiandi's thoughts cannot reach. Hun Tiandi appears in the territory of the Burning Flame Valley.
Burning Flame Valley is one of the Three Valleys, and its heritage is the strongest among them.
The ancestral figure of the valley, Fireburn Ancestor, was once a pinnacle Nine-Star Dou Sheng, and in that era, he and Hun Tiandi were considered two of the closest individuals to the Dou Di.
Fireburn Ancestor has lived for an incredibly long time, longer than Hun Tiandi and his companions. While Hun Tiandi and the others were still striving, Fireburn Ancestor had already become a regional overlord.
If it weren't for the lack of source energy on the Dou Qi continent, Fireburn Ancestor would have likely become a Dou Di and wouldn't have ended up dying of old age.
In recent years, the Burning Flame Valley has gradually declined following Fireburn Ancestor's passing. The current Burning Flame Valley is not as powerful as it used to be.
There is only one Dou Sheng in the Burning Flame Valley, a mid-level One-Star Dou Sheng, and a valley master who is a Five-Star Dou Zun.
The Burning Flame Valley is regressing as time goes on.
Within the Burning Flame Valley, there is a Flame, the Twelfth-ranked Flame on the Flame Ranking, the Nine Dragon Lighting Flame. This is the inherited Flame of the Burning Flame Valley.
And Hun Tiandi's goal is precisely this Nine Dragon Lighting Flame.
However, Hun Tiandi's gaze is not only fixed on the Nine Dragon Lighting Flame but on all the Flames listed on the Flame Ranking.
Hun Tiandi understands that only when all the Flames on the Flame Ranking are gathered can they merge and condense the Flame ranked first on the Flame Ranking.
The Dou Qi continent is vast and boundless, so it is not easy to find Flames. Hun Tiandi can only rely on the guidance of the "Divine Book" to barely find some Flames.
This time, Hun Tiandi's gaze falls upon the inherited Flame of the Burning Flame Valley.
The Burning Flame Valley possesses a Flame, yet it does not have enough strength to protect it. That is the wrongdoing of the Burning Flame Valley.
If it were in the past, Hun Tiandi would not have been interested in the Flames beyond the top five on the Flame Ranking.
But now, things are different.
He has successfully refined the Void Devouring Flame.
The Void Devouring Flame has also thoroughly cultivated the Flame Mantra. As long as the Void Devouring Flame devours Flames, it can become stronger.
And when the Void Devouring Flame becomes stronger, the power it obtains will ultimately be reflected on Hun Tiandi.
...
Whoosh!
Hun Tiandi steps into the Burning Flame Valley, instantly erupting with a terrifying aura. This horrifying aura makes the entire Burning Flame Valley tremble in fear, shaking uncontrollably.
This terrifying aura carries immense pressure, startling the strong individuals of the Burning Flame Valley. Many of them, unable to withstand the terror, tremble in their legs and kneel down.
Among those who can still stand under this terrifying aura in the Burning Flame Valley, only a few remain.
Even these few individuals' legs are trembling incessantly, and if it weren't for their firm determination, they might also have knelt down.
The hearts of the strong individuals in the Burning Flame Valley trembled, wondering, "Who on earth has arrived in the Burning Flame Valley?"
"This aura is so powerful, so terrifying! The incoming person is not good!"
...
In a hidden place, the Firecloud Ancestor sensed this terrifying aura, and his expression changed slightly. He left his secluded area and arrived at the plaza of the Burning Flame Valley.
With utmost respect, he addressed Hun Tiandi in the void, saying, "Firecloud of the Burning Flame Valley pays respects to the Clan Chief of the Soul Clan."
As the longest-living and most knowledgeable figure in the Burning Flame Valley, Firecloud Ancestor had naturally encountered Hun Tiandi before. However, it had always been from a distance and never as close as today.
Formidable, terrifying! These were the first thoughts that crossed Firecloud Ancestor's mind.
His head lowered in submission.
Firecloud Ancestor couldn't quite understand why Hun Tiandi had come to the Burning Flame Valley. He had no idea what brought him here.
Could it be that the Burning Flame Valley had provoked someone from the Soul Hall?
Even if they had provoked someone from the Soul Hall, it should be dealt with by those below. How could the big boss behind it all come out?
Firecloud Ancestor couldn't comprehend the reason for Hun Tiandi's arrival, and his trembling heart was unable to describe the shock within.
Since Hun Tiandi is here, the Burning Flame Valley would likely face dire consequences. Firecloud Ancestor could only hope that he was overthinking things.
Otherwise, the Burning Flame Valley would completely disappear from the Central Continent, vanishing into the river of history.
Firecloud Ancestor was in shock.
The strong individuals of the Burning Flame Valley were even more astonished.
They couldn't understand why their reclusive ancestor had come out of seclusion and showed such respect to a stranger.
What had happened to this world?
It should be noted that their ancestor was a Dou Sheng-level powerhouse.
If even a Dou Sheng-level ancestor showed such profound respect to someone, how terrifying must that person's existence and strength be?
