Xiao Chen nodded in realization. It was no wonder. An Xiaomo had been down there for a few days. He had thought that he had disappeared. "Lead the way!"
Although the bottom of the hot spring was flat, because of the water, even Xiao Chen walked very slowly here. He was different from An Xiaomo. This guy was a Ghost Talisman Demon. When floating in the water, Xiao Chen could only rely on walking. Moreover, because of the strong gravitational force at the bottom of the pool, his footsteps were very heavy. Every step took a lot of effort.
If not for An Xiaomo, he would not have been able to find anything at the bottom of the lake even if he came in once.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen's footsteps stopped. He was attracted by a jade pendant shining with green light next to a pile of bones at the bottom of the pool. He subconsciously squatted down and wanted to pick it up to see if it was a spiritual jade.
But when he picked up the jade pendant and saw the appearance of the jade pendant, Xiao Chen was stunned! At this moment, his mind suddenly went blank. Tears also gushed out in an instant, mixed in the spring water, but no one noticed …
This jade pendant was his father's jade pendant! Xiao Chen's hand holding the jade pendant trembled a little. He never expected to see his father's jade pendant at the bottom of the lake! This jade pendant was carved by his father. It was made according to the appearance of the jade pendant made from the spiritual jade he had on him. He wore it on his body as an amulet, so Xiao Chen recognized it at a glance. There was no mistaking it!
How … how was this possible? Could it be that his father had died in this hot spring? Among these bones, was there a pile of father's? Xiao Chen couldn't believe it, nor did he want to believe it!
No, he must have made a mistake. Someone else also had this jade pendant. However, when he turned over the jade pendant, the obvious "Xiao" character on the back of the jade pendant would not lie. At this moment, Xiao Chen was silent.
He squatted at the bottom of the water in pain, feeling at a loss. He only felt that at this moment, everything had become meaningless, as if the sky had collapsed. The truth he had been searching for had been shattered.
"Master?" An Xiaomo floated forward for a distance and found that Xiao Chen did not follow, so she quickly turned back to look for him.
Xiao Chen was pulled back to reality by An Little Demon's voice. Looking at the jade pendant in his hand, he was in so much pain that he did not want to respond. He knew that his father was looking for this hot spring water so that he could bring it back to temper his body.
However, was this really his father's skeleton? Although Xiao Chen saw the jade pendant and guessed that his father was most likely dead, there was still a trace of doubt in his heart. If his father fell down, then what about the others? There were so many people in that team. They couldn't all fall down, right?
Didn't anyone spread the news? Could he have accidentally dropped the jade pendant to the bottom of the pond?
Thinking of this possibility, Xiao Chen suddenly felt his whole body relax. Sometimes, as long as there was hope, even if one knew that this hope was not very likely, one would still follow this hope and move forward.
This was the case for Xiao Chen now. He thought of this possibility, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct.
He took a deep breath, stood up, and strode forward. As for the pile of bones behind him, Xiao Chen did not even bother to take a closer look. Only he knew deep in his heart that he did not look at it because he did not want to find anything. The more he looked, the easier it was for him to get lost in some details.
"Let's go, it's nothing!" Xiao Chen shook his head and said faintly.
"Oh …" An Xiaomo did not ask much and continued to lead the way. Half an hour later, An Xiaomo pointed to a depression not far ahead and said, "Master, the Heaven and Earth Mystical Flame is inside!"
Xiao Chen looked around and saw that there was a depression at the bottom of the pond, but it was difficult to find it if one did not walk close. No wonder An Xiaomo had looked for it for so long. If one just looked back and forth, it would be impossible to see it clearly.
There was a little surprise in his heart, and the haze in his heart slowly dissipated. Xiao Chen walked over and squatted down. A scorching hot air came to his face, but there was a gloomy and cold aura in it.
This was a very strange feeling. It felt very hot, but there was an involuntary chill in his heart, and it even made him shiver! This flame was indeed the Heaven and Earth Mystical Flame from the Nine Serenities Hell. As soon as he got close, he felt a chill in his heart.
Just from this encounter, Xiao Chen could feel that this flame was very powerful. It was definitely more powerful than his True Samadhi Fire! Sure enough, the Heaven and Earth Mystical Flame was much stronger than the flames produced by the cultivators themselves.
"Elder Heaven Ancestor, how can I subdue this Mystical Flame and make it my own?" Xiao Chen asked with some excitement and joy.
"If a cultivator wants to subdue an Mystical Flame, the method is very simple. That is to destroy the Divine Sense of the Mystical Flame." Elder Heaven Ancestor said, "The Heaven and Earth Mystical Flame is a spiritual object formed between heaven and earth. It has Divine Sense on it. Although it has not become a spirit, it will not be easily used by others. Therefore, only by destroying its original Divine Sense can you absorb it into your Divine Sense Sea and use it for yourself!"
"Oh? Destroy the Divine Sense? "Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. This was the first time he had heard of this.
"Yes, you need to use your own Divine Sense to refine the Mystical Flame's Divine Sense and add your own Divine Sense to it." Elder Heaven Ancestor continued, "This process may be very long, because it will also take some time for you to form a communication with the Mystical Flame's Divine Sense."
"Communication with Divine Sense?" Xiao Chen suddenly had an idea, "Then isn't it similar to the intent of comprehending the Dao in the Dao Comprehension Sand Valley?"
"Huh? It's really similar! " If Xiao Chen had not mentioned it, the Elder Heaven Ancestor would not have thought of it. "This way, you have the advantage. With the experience of communication, you should be able to smoothly form a communication with the Mystical Flame and then try to refine it!"
"Okay, then I will try it now!" Xiao Chen was a little excited.
"However, Xiao Chen, there is one thing I must remind you of. Although the Mystical Flame can increase a cultivator's strength after being subdued, it is not easy to subdue it." Elder Heaven Ancestor reminded him seriously, "In the Cultivation World, many cultivators who possess Mystical Flames can only do so under the protection of the elders of their clans or sects. However, you have no one to help you. Elder Heaven Ancestor, even if I wanted to help, I would not be able to. "
"Haha, aren't I a genius?" Xiao Chen said smugly. "I am a genius, even more powerful than you when you were young."
"Bullsh * t, without the help of Spirit Jades, you are nothing." Although Elder Heaven Ancestor said this, he had to admit that after Xiao Chen reversed cultivated the Heaven's Stolen Fortune battle art, his strength had indeed increased very quickly! In less than half a year, Xiao Chen had successfully built his foundation. In the Cultivation World, he would be considered a genius, not to mention in the secular world where the spiritual energy was thin.
Even with the help of Spirit Jades, how could a genius in the Cultivation World not have the help of Spirit Jades? Or even more! Moreover, Xiao Chen had only started cultivating at the age of 18. He had clearly missed the best age. No matter how good his talent was, it would still be wasted.
"Hehe." Xiao Chen sat cross-legged on the edge of the Flame of the Underworld. He closed his eyes and began to use his mind to communicate with it.
Perhaps it was because he had the experience of communicating with the Dao Enlightenment Sand Valley. Very quickly, Xiao Chen's mind poured into the Flame of the Underworld and established a connection with it.
Xiao Chen's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of joy. It seemed that this Deviant Flame was very easy to communicate with. It was so easy to establish a connection with him?
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen hurriedly concentrated and continued to communicate with the Deviant Flame.
Xiao Chen seemed to have entered a new world. This was not the bottom of the hot spring, nor was it his spiritual space. Instead, it was an endless world of darkness. Inside, he could not even see his fingers in front of him. All around him, there were only clusters of bluish-purple flames surging back and forth …
At this moment, Xiao Chen felt like he had entered a sea of fire in an ice cellar. Even though it was scorching hot on the outside, his heart was bone-chilling cold. This feeling was like two extremes of ice and fire. One cold and one hot, two extremes that could make a person collapse.
Xiao Chen's forehead was covered in sweat. However, his teeth uncontrollably chattered as they trembled. He seemed to feel the anger of the Flame of the Underworld. This Deviant Flame could actually sense his intention to refine it. While it was protesting, it was also using its actions to punish Xiao Chen's ignorant actions.
At this moment, Xiao Chen seemed to understand why the Elder Heaven Ancestor said that in the cultivation world, cultivators would need the protection of their family or sect's elders in order to subdue the Deviant Flame of the Underworld. If it was an ordinary person with a weak mind, under the cruel torture of ice and fire, it would be a small matter for them to suffer from Qi deviation. They might even collapse and die if they were not careful.
"Break for me!" While Xiao Chen used his body to resist the scorching heat and bitter cold, he released his divine sense, surging in all directions, preparing to invade the Deviant Flame.
After releasing his divine sense, Xiao Chen felt an obstructing aura. In the surroundings, there was something that was resisting Xiao Chen's divine sense. However, Xiao Chen was also a determined person. He would not give up just because of this little bit of difficulty.
In the past, when he could not become a martial artist, he persevered for more than ten years. He was a good example. How long had it been? However, he did not care and continued to use his divine sense to invade the surrounding Deviant Flame.
His divine sense was very strong. He did not believe that this Deviant Flame could resist for a while, but it could resist for a lifetime!
Xiao Chen's persistence seemed to have aroused the strong dissatisfaction of the Deviant Flame. Xiao Chen clearly felt that his body was more than twice as hot as before. That bone-chilling cold in his heart had also dropped to the freezing point.
Suddenly, the scene in front of Xiao Chen changed. It turned into another scene. It was as if he had returned to the bottom of the hot spring. He saw an imposing man falling from above, falling into the bottom of the lake …
It was his father, Xiao Feng! Xiao Qiang's heart trembled. He saw his father struggling in pain, unable to breathe in the hot spring. He tore at his clothes, and the jade pendant on his neck was torn off and thrown to the side …
"Ah — —" Xiao Chen watched as his father walked step by step towards the edge of death, but he was powerless. It was as if he was by his father's side, but he was unable to interfere. He was like a bystander, only able to watch from afar.
