At this moment, Palace Master Jiang Hong, who had hurriedly flown over, was still on tenterhooks, fearing that his disciples would suffer great losses. He kept praying in his heart, "God bless us, Red Emperor Celestial Ancestor protect us, I hope not too many people die in this disaster. As long as less than half of the people die, it will be a great fortune for our Red Emperor Palace!"
When the first immortals died, he and the two Grand Supreme Elders had already sensed it and identified the direction of the immortals was east, which might be near the ship, so the three of them hurried back. Unfortunately, they didn't go far before they were blocked by six or seven Heaven Immortals. Those people released immortal fires and surrounded the three of them.
At this critical moment, Jiang Hong had to release the palace treasure, a peak sixth-stage immortal fire. With Feng Fei's help and Phoenix Dance in Ninth Heaven, he burned the Heaven Immortals and forced them to retreat, then hurried back!
Along the way, Jiang Hong kept looking up and saw two faint white mists of immortal death not far from the ship. He became more and more uneasy. "Looks like our disciples are risking their lives! Two of the enemy's Heaven Immortals died, so who knows how many cultivators on our side have died? It looks like the odds are against us … "
Heavenly Immortal Zhong Yi comforted him, "Palace Master, don't worry too much. Life and death are decreed by fate, and riches and honor are determined by the heavens. Many years ago, our Scarlet Thearch also encountered a few similar calamities. Didn't we all survive?"
Jiang Hong shook his head and said nothing with a heavy heart.
It was because of these disasters that the Red Emperor Palace couldn't achieve glory.
The three of them hurried back to the ship and looked at it anxiously, only to find that Qin Di and the ten Spiritual Immortals were all alive and well. They were very surprised and quickly asked, "How is it? How many disciples did we lose? How many stayed? "
Jin Bu 'Er answered, "Palace Master, we lost a total of ten people!"
"What? Only ten people? "The three of them couldn't believe it! How could only ten people die in such a big battle?
Jin Bu 'Er said, "Palace Master, you'll understand once you enter the treasured ship. Our Red Emperor Palace's losses are very small, but we managed to thwart the enemy's attack. Therefore, this is a great victory for us!"
Jiang Hong asked eagerly, "What happened? Can you tell me in detail? "
Jin Bu Er recounted everything that had happened. In the end, he said, "This time, it's all thanks to Qin Jin. He is the greatest contributor! If it wasn't for him, we would really be finished! "
Jiang Hong understood what had happened, and only then did he feel at ease.
He patted Qin Di's shoulder and said, "Qin Jin, good job! Thank you for saving so many disciples! From now on, you are the third Grand Elder of the Red Emperor Palace! The ten Spirit Immortals have to listen to your commands! "
Qin Di hurriedly said, "Palace Master, this is what I should do."
Jiang Hong exclaimed in admiration, "Actually, with your qualifications, you managed to make the second pill furnace on Mount Zhong Ding ring on your first day of joining the sect. Not long ago, you also became a level-five Alchemy Master. Any one of these two achievements could have made you a Grand Elder of the palace. However, I suppressed them both because I was afraid that you would not be able to defend against external injuries. Now that you've personally killed a second stage Heavenly Immortal, you've proven your strength. Me? I won't suppress you anymore! From now on, you are the pillar of the Red Emperor Palace. You are our common hope. Everyone has to rely on you! "
Qin Di said, "Disciple's cultivation is too shallow. I can only do my best."
Jiang Hong asked, "I heard that you have a celestial sword and a Lower Flame. What grade are they? Do you need me to provide you with resources to help you upgrade them? "
Qin Di answered, "Disciple has a level-five celestial sword and a level-six celestial fire. It was because of them that I managed to win by luck. "
Jiang Hong was shocked. "Their grades are so high? It's almost as high as the palace's treasure! I can't help you then. "
At that moment, Heaven Immortal Zhong Yi started to help treat the injured. Four of the ten Spirit Immortals were severely injured. They were carried into the treasure ship and soaked in a type of Hundred Herbs Potion. This was a method passed down by the Red Emperor's ancestors, and it was very effective in treating burns.
Everyone returned to the treasure ship and looked for the cultivators that had been lost. They realized that there were four low-level Spirit Immortals and six elite disciples among them. Most of them had followed Di Wan. Because of his misjudgment, he had set off too late, causing his subordinates to be implicated. They couldn't return to the treasure ship in time and ended up in trouble.
Because of that, Di Wan knelt on one knee and apologized to the Palace Lord. "It's all my fault. Please punish me, Palace Lord."
Jiang Hong frowned. "When you return, you will be punished to face the wall for 300 years!"
Di Wan knew that the punishment was very light. He had already reached the peak of Spirit Immortal and needed to go into seclusion to find an opportunity to break through. He felt regretful, so he said, "Disciple was too careless and made a huge mistake. I'd rather stay in the Southern Continent and help the sect find immortal fire resources. I won't go back until I find 100 heaven-grade spiritual fires. "
Jiang Hong nodded. "Since that's the case, you can stay. However, it's very dangerous to stay here. Discuss with Qin Huo later and see if he has a way to help you complete the mission. Qin Huo is the direct disciple of the Red Emperor Celestial Ancestor. He has unfathomable means. Even I was surprised that he forced the enemy to retreat. There's no harm in learning from him. "
He made this suggestion mainly to let Di Wan build a good relationship with Qin Di.
Di Wan's aptitude was not bad and he had a high chance of becoming a Heaven Immortal. Once he became a Heaven Immortal, he would be the fourth grand elder of the Red Emperor Palace. If he offended Qin Di because of what happened before, it would cause discord in the Red Emperor Palace. Therefore, Palace Lord Jiang Hong planned ahead.
Di Wan bowed. "Yes, disciple understands."
Jiang Hong called Qin Di over and praised him. "Qin Huo, you've made such a huge contribution. How do you want me to reward you?"
Qin Di thought about it and said, "How many low-grade fire seeds do I have? Can you bestow some to me? "
Jiang Hong looked at him. "What do you want low-grade fire seeds for?"
Qin Di didn't hide it from him. He smiled. "Disciple has a sacrificial fire method that can upgrade immortal fire. Therefore, I want to try it. "
Jiang Hong said, "Sacrificial fire method? I do know of such a method. But it's not the Red Emperor Palace's direct mental cultivation method. Moreover, there's a certain risk in using it. You should know that not every immortal fire can perform sacrificial fire. Sometimes, it will attract evil spirits and cause uncontrollable consequences. Qin Huo, I took a quick glance and found that there seems to be a god nurturing inside your immortal fire. You need to be careful. "
Qin Di smiled. "Disciple already knows. Thank you, Palace Lord, for your guidance. "
He had already asked Yohime and Zhu Rong about this. Both of them said that Lord Li wasn't a bad person. Therefore, he wasn't afraid that Lord Li's divine fire would have problems.
Jiang Hong said, "Our sect's Palace Shaking immortal fire is slowly nurtured using the secret method passed down by the Red Emperor Celestial Ancestor. I have the method to nurture immortal fire here, I can pass it to you! Using it to nurture immortal fire is at least safer than using the sacrificial fire method. "As he spoke, he took out a blank jade slip and carved a paragraph of content on it.
