Gulp.
The whirlpool was a long and narrow passage. After Jian Wushuang plunged into the whirlpool, he kept moving forward. Gradually, he felt that the lake water around him was getting hotter and hotter, and there was even a trace of fire in front of him!
After an unknown period of time.
Puff!
As if he had passed through the thermocline, Jian Wushuang instantly came out of the water and was shocked by the scene in front of him.
After passing through the narrow passage, the view in front of him suddenly widened, and a huge furnace fire pool appeared in front of him.
The furnace fire pool was tens of thousands of feet long and was hidden deep in the ground. Countless blood-red flames, as thick as water, kept coming out and burning the void.
"This … this is all the Innate Fire Qi!"
Jian Wushuang's face was immediately filled with ecstasy. It should be noted that he had only absorbed a finger-sized Yi Wood Qi, and it had awakened the Ancient Bronze Cauldron. After that, he had absorbed a fist-sized Qi of Ding Fire, which had made the Ancient Bronze Cauldron reach a higher level.
But now, if the Ancient Bronze Cauldron absorbed all the Innate Fire, how much would the Ancient Bronze Cauldron grow?
Jian Wushuang's eyes flickered. In his Interspatial Ring, the Ancient Bronze Cauldron shook violently like never before!
"Disperse!"
Jian Wushuang opened his right hand and grabbed at the furnace fire pool. In an instant, countless divine power gushed out from his hand and formed a huge enclosed space in the Innate Fire Pool.
Then, Jian Wushuang no longer suppressed the Ancient Bronze Cauldron and let it fly out of the Interspatial Ring.
Whoosh!!
In an instant, the Ancient Bronze Cauldron was suspended in the air, spinning rapidly and making a few long whistling sounds.
The next moment, the Ancient Bronze Cauldron seemed to have turned into the king of fire. Like a whale sucking in water, countless Innate Fire Qi rushed out of the pool and quickly poured into the Ancient Bronze Cauldron!
One streak, two streaks, three streaks …
In the blink of an eye, countless Innate Fire Qi intertwined and came from all directions with the Ancient Bronze Cauldron as the center. They poured into the Ancient Bronze Cauldron!
They were so densely packed that they blotted out the sky and covered the sun!!
Jian Wushuang blinked when he saw this. Would this ancient bronze cauldron suck up all the Innate Fire Qi here?
One had to know that the Connate Fourth Fire Qi was the cornerstone of the Spirit Flame Sacred Ground's cultivation.
"Forget it, I don't care anymore."
Shaking his head, Jian Wushuang sat down cross-legged and slowly closed his eyes. Godforce gushed out from his arms to refine the ancient bronze cauldron.
Three years had passed since he had started cultivating.
.....
Outside the Innate Fourth Fire Pool.
The Old Heart Dominator sat cross-legged in silence, her brows slightly furrowed.
She occasionally lowered her head to look at the sealed Natural Fire Pool of Fourth Heaven, and she occasionally raised her head to look towards the distance while a wisp of anxiety that couldn't be resolved appeared on her face.
"It's been three years. Why hasn't Sire Bu Qi come out yet?"
The Old Heart Dominator seemed a little worried. It had been three years since Jian Wushuang had entered the Connate Fourth Fire Pond. She hadn't seen any trace of Jian Wushuang in these three years, but she could sense that the Innate Fourth Fire Pond's Qi was rapidly decreasing at a visible rate.
This made her uneasy. If Jian Wushuang had only absorbed a little bit of the Innate Fourth Fire Qi, it wouldn't have mattered. She could have led Jian Wushuang here and left quietly without anyone noticing.
However, if Jian Wushuang had absorbed too much, the result would be like the difference between heaven and earth!
The Connate Fourth Fire Pond was the Spirit Flame Sacred Ground's accumulated Innate Fourth Fire Qi for tens of thousands of chaos cycles. Even as an elder of the Spirit Flame Sacred Ground, she had to repeatedly report to the sacred ground's leader if she wanted to use even a little bit of the Innate Fourth Fire Qi.
However, in the three years she'd been guarding the Connate Fourth Fire Pond, the amount of Innate Fourth Fire Qi that the Spirit Flame Sacred Ground consumed was equivalent to several chaos cycles' worth of Spirit Flame Sacred Ground!
If the matter were to be exposed, she wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility even if she was crushed to pieces!
Just as she was feeling uneasy, a series of hurried footsteps came from behind her.
"Who is it?"
The Old Heart Dominator's heart clenched.
"Elder Heart, it's me. The sacred lord sent me to retrieve some Innate Fourth Fire Qi."
As he spoke, a boy holding a gourd walked in.
When the Suixin Hegemon saw this, he couldn't help but relax slightly. Fortunately, this was only the Sacred Lord's servant.
"Mm. Give me the gourd. Just wait here for me."
The Old Heart Dominator feigned indifference.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, Elder Heart Dominator."
The boy grinned.
"It's no trouble at all."
The Old Heart Dominator smiled, then took the gourd and stuck it into a fist-sized hole. Instantly, an endless stream of Fourth Fire Qi surged out and gradually filled the gourd.
Seeing that nothing was wrong, the boy casually said, "Elder Heart Dominator, the sacred lord wants me to ask you something. Has anything happened to the Connate Fourth Fire Pond recently?"
The Old Heart Dominator's heart trembled, but he didn't turn around. He squeezed out a smile and said, "I've been guarding it personally. What could have happened?"
The boy nodded, not noticing the strange tone in the Old Heart Dominator's voice. He said casually, "Elder Heart Dominator, speaking of which, do you know where Elder Mount Moth went? The sacred lord has been looking for him recently and hasn't seen him anywhere in the sacred ground. "
"Oh? Mount Moth disappeared? "
The Old Heart Dominator raised an eyebrow.
"That's right. Speaking of which, Elder Mount Moth has been missing for quite some time. Ever since you returned from your mission, everyone has only seen him once, but he hasn't been seen again."
"… Perhaps he's found a place to cultivate in seclusion?"
The Old Heart Dominator's heart trembled. For some reason, he vaguely felt that news of Elder Mount Moth had a lot to do with Jian Wushuang.
"Should be."
The boy didn't suspect anything. A moment later, the Old Heart Dominator handed the gourd to the boy. The boy immediately thanked her and waved his hand with a smile. "Elder Heart Dominator, I won't stay here any longer. The sacred lord is still waiting for the Fourth Fire Qi."
"Take care. I won't see you out."
A moment later, the boy left. The Old Heart Dominator heaved a long sigh of relief.
Then, she lowered her head and looked at the sealed Connate Fourth Fire Pond door again. The worry in her eyes grew.
There were still seven years before it was time for the new shift. At that time, the Fourth Fire Qi in the Connate Fourth Fire Pond would be greatly reduced, and it would definitely be discovered.
.....
Seven years passed in the blink of an eye.
Inside the Connate Fourth Fire Pond.
The vast sea of Connate Fourth Fire Qi had shrunk greatly. In ten years, the Connate Fourth Fire Qi in the Connate Fourth Fire Pond had decreased by at least seventy percent!
The ancient bronze cauldron floated in the void like a giant gluttonous beast, tirelessly devouring large amounts of Connate Fourth Fire Qi!
