Black Flame Canyon.
Yue Yang had carefully investigated that place a long time ago because of his admiration for the Flame Drop Ore.
According to the information, it was a canyon that burned in raging flames for its entire life. Moreover, the flames there were much fiercer than other places, and the color was mostly black from afar, which was why it was named Black Flame Canyon.
There were a few mercenaries who were not afraid of fire and death who would occasionally take the risk to enter Black Flame Canyon.
If they did not unfortunately die, then they would usually be able to dig up some good quality Pure Gold, or Fire Stone, which was rare in the outside world and could only be found in volcanic craters.
Of course, some mercenaries could also dig up Flame Drop Ore in Black Flame Canyon.
Flame Drop Ore, after being refined, would become Flame Drop Gold.
The latter was a type of extremely hot liquid metal.
It could be combined with other minerals to create various famous weapons and treasures in the Heaven Realm. It was a very precious mineral.
The high quality Flame Drop Gold, after being refined many times, would become a Flame Drop Crystal Gold, which was an extremely hard and completely immune to the corrosion of the fire element at room temperature … … If this Flame Drop Crystal Gold was put up for auction, even if it was the size of a finger, it could be sold for a high price of more than ten million. It was one of the hundred items that the Heaven Realm always bought from the Lower Realm.
"Boom! Boom, boom, boom! "
When Yue Yang carried Drunken Cat and flew about fifty kilometers away from Black Flame Canyon, he, with his extremely sharp senses, heard an intense battle.
Someone was fighting outside Black Flame Canyon?
Could it be that they were also here for the Flame Drop Ore?
If that was the case, then Yue Yang would not be surprised at all.
"Someone is fighting? It seems like they are getting closer! " Drunken Cat also woke up from her sleep and immediately got off from Yue Yang's back. After a slight adjustment, she regained her usual calmness. She clenched her fists and continuously increased her strength, preparing to face the sudden attack of the enemy.
"Hold your breath and observe the situation." Yue Yang waved his hand, indicating that she did not need to be nervous.
"Okay!" Drunken Cat looked at Yue Yang, and her tense nerves slowly relaxed. With him here, she just needed to listen to him. Even if there were any changes, he would be able to deal with everything.
Rumble …
At some point in time, the sky had been dyed a dazzling blood-red.
Countless Heavenly Fire Meteors poured down like raindrops, densely crashing into an area of about thirty kilometers in radius. Even though the range of the attack was still a distance away from Yue Yang and Drunken Cat, the tremor caused by the attack and the subsequent shockwave still made them frown. Although he wasn't able to see it with his own eyes, Yue Yang estimated that the attacker was at least at Heaven Rank Level 4.
If it was just the strength of a Heaven Ranked Level 4, then it was fine.
This place was too close to the Black Flame Canyon. Although the fire element seemed quiet on the surface, it was actually very active. Once it was disturbed, it would erupt with a frightening might.
The power of those Heavenly Fire Meteors smashing down was not inferior to a Heaven Ranked Level 5 expert's attack.
The heatwave was monstrous.
If the Fire Element was already so powerful in the outskirts of the Black Flame Canyon, what would happen inside the Black Flame Canyon?
The outskirts of the Black Flame Canyon might not be comparable to Supreme Lie Huo's Sea of Fire World, but in the Black Flame Canyon, the Fire Element inside would probably surpass it. The Sea of Fire could be balanced by the Hourglass World's water. Where would he find so much water to reduce it here? If he didn't bring Drunken Cat along and was alone, it would naturally not be a problem. However, since he was already here, it would be a pity if he didn't let her take the opportunity to temper herself … Right now, he didn't know if he was friend or foe, so he should just wait and see!
"Shh!" Yue Yang made a hand gesture to hide.
"Understood." Drunken Cat changed from her usual self and completely listened to Yue Yang's arrangements. She held her breath and quietly hid beside Yue Yang.
After the Heavenly Fire Meteors smashed onto the ground, a few shadows escaped from the raging flames.
Two of them were 'old friends' that Yue Yang knew.
One was Skeleton Man Rachel, the leader of the Black Skeleton Bandits in the Southern Heaven Realm.
The other was the Vampire who had a falling out with Lima under the Redemption City and was scared away by Lima's trick. Yue Yang didn't know the name of this Vampire, but this Vampire's strength wasn't bad. He had the strength of Heaven Stage Level 3 and was only a little weaker than Skeleton Man Rachel.
However, no matter if it was Skeleton Man Rachel or Vampire, they were both in a sorry state.
Skeleton Man Rachel and Vampire each brought along two Heaven Rank subordinates, fleeing from afar while feeling battered and battered.
Yue Yang could see that if it wasn't for the two of them protecting them, the Heavenly Fire Meteors just now would have been enough to kill Skeleton Man Rachel and Vampire's subordinates. The two of them cherished the fact that their subordinates were Heaven Stage and would rather be in a sorry state to protect their lives. That was how they managed to escape from the Meteor Shower alive.
The enemies who released the Meteor Shower did not chase after them.
Instead, they retreated.
They returned to the Black Flame Canyon on their own.
Due to the distance, Yue Yang couldn't see what it was even with his Heaven Eyes Divine Vision. He only saw that when it came and went, it brought along a hundred meter tall black flame that soared into the sky.
Could it be the Demon Beast Boss that guarded the Black Flame Canyon? However, he had never heard of any Demon Beast appearing in the Black Flame Canyon before. The main reason why the mercenaries who went there died was because there was a kind of explosive flame eruption in the Black Flame Canyon. No matter if it was a fire attribute race or a beast, once they were sprayed by this explosive flame, they would immediately turn into smoke … This was the main reason why the Heaven Realm mercenaries didn't dare to go to the Black Flame Canyon. As for the Demon Beast occupying it, no one had ever heard of it before.
"Damn it, damn it, Blood Fang, because of your wrong information, the Black Skeleton Group that I had painstakingly managed for many years is finished, completely finished!" Skeleton Man Rachel no longer had the pretentious look that Yue Yang had seen before. Instead, he angrily roared at his companions.
"I admit that I am responsible for the wrong information, but you should also know that I didn't want this to happen! Your Black Skeleton Group is finished, but didn't my Bat Group also die? If I didn't use my treasure to protect them just now, how could your two subordinates still be alive? Rachel, I did get the wrong information, but it wasn't my original intention. It's not that I don't want to make up for it. Look at how I used my most precious Guardian of Light, you can see how much I have sacrificed for our cooperation! " That Vampire called Blood Fang immediately frowned when he talked about the battle. It was obvious that he was very pained to use that Guardian of Light.
"Leader, what should we do now?" One of Rachel's subordinates saw that the two bosses were almost done arguing, so he came up to ask.
"No matter what, it has nothing to do with you! With your strength, it's impossible for you to go back to the Black Flame Canyon. How about this, we'll stay and think of a way. The four of you, immediately return to Silver Leaf City to rest and wait for our return. Pay attention, don't cause trouble for me, especially don't provoke the new Emerald Lord and the three clans of Soaring Dragon, Sky Demon, and Sky Reaching Clan. Those experts from the Western Heaven Realm, even the Lionheart King has to curry favor with them. "Rachel sternly warned.
"Subordinate understands."
Even without Rachel's reminder, the four of them wouldn't dare to become enemies with the new forces of the Emerald Territory.
One had to know that not everyone had the strength to provoke a cross-border war, and it was obvious that the experts of the three clans of Soaring Dragon from the Western Heaven Realm had won both openly and secretly, becoming a force with absolute power in the Emerald Territory.
After waiting for his four subordinates to leave, Rachel angrily slashed a hundred-meter-long crack in the ground with his blade. "Damned Lord of the Black Flame, this bastard has been hiding underground like a rat for thousands of years. To think that he has quietly accumulated such a powerful strength. If we hadn't joined hands to explore, we would have been deceived by the tranquility of the Black Flame Canyon! It turns out that he has always been hiding in the Black Flame Canyon to absorb fire energy. Fortunately, we discovered it early. Otherwise, when he succeeds and comes out, the group of enemies we used to fight with will all die without a burial place. "
Vampire waved his hand, indicating for Rachel to calm down. "Rachel, it's still in time. We have already found traces of the Black Flame Lord. If we wait for him to absorb all the fire energy from the Flame Dropping Stones, that would be really bad."
Rachel's skull made a thinking gesture. "Blood Fang, the problem is, with just the two of us, even if we know that the Black Flame Lord is at the critical moment of advancing to Heaven Rank Level 6, we are still powerless to stop him. Now that there is no one to help us, the two of us are powerless. We can only watch helplessly as the Black Flame Lord absorbs fire energy to advance. It's really maddening! "
"No matter what, we can't let him advance." Vampire Blood Fang put on a pair of sharp silver claws and waved his hand. "Even if there is no one to help, we have to harass him to the end. The Black Flame Lord is at the critical moment of advancing and is most likely to be destroyed. If it was any other time, we would have no choice but to escape."
"If only the clown was here." Rachel sighed.
"With him here, I'm even more worried. It's hard to guarantee that the clown won't use us as cannon fodder and reap the benefits in the end." Vampire immediately sneered.
"Although there is that kind of danger, his brain is still more useful. He can think of a way and has a higher chance of success. With just the two of us, I really don't have any confidence!" Skeleton Man Rachel sighed.
"…" When Drunken Cat heard this, she stretched out her hand to touch Yue Yang, as if asking Yue Yang why he didn't go out and cooperate with the other party.
Yue Yang shook his head.
A mysterious smile appeared on his face.
If they went out to help now, even if they won, the spoils of war would still be given to Rachel and Blood Fang.
He had enough strength and was hiding in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to attack. Why did he have to cooperate with Skeleton Man Rachel and Blood Fang? Moreover, these two fellows were not good people. If he cooperated with them, it would be hard to guarantee that they wouldn't do something behind the scenes.
It would be fine if the Black Flame Lord was an extremely strong enemy. But from Rachel and Blood Fang's tone, it was just a Lord that was hiding to absorb fire energy. Not to mention Heaven Ranked Level 5, even if it reached Heaven Ranked Level 6, Yue Yang wouldn't care about it. Since Lord Lie Huo was so powerful, he had already killed him. What difference would there be with the Black Flame Lord? This guy was at most an elite monster, not even a BOSS.
The only thing that was worthy of Yue Yang's caution was the dangerous terrain of the Black Flame Canyon.
Sometimes, the harsh terrain was more terrifying than the enemy, because it was something that could not be completely grasped without knowing its true depth.
"Let's do this … …" Yue Yang made a 'they fight on both sides, we'll pick up the middle' gesture towards Drunken Cat. If this shameless plan was in normal times, Drunken Cat would definitely despise it. But now, her sense of justice would not overflow to the Southern Heaven Realm. In her heart, although she didn't view her opponents as strange like Yue Yang, she also felt that everyone here was an enemy, and nothing she did would go overboard.
