It was unknown if it was because they could not fly in the Hidden Flame Mountain Range or if there were other concerns, but even an Eighth Tribulation expert like the Heaven Fire Hall Master had to walk forward steadily. Xiao Lingyu naturally followed behind.
It was difficult to see any other living creatures in the mountain range. There were only bare rocks and flames that constantly seeped out from the rocks. It was a world of fire.
After traveling for four hours, Yan Dong brought everyone to a stop at the foot of a mountain.
The mountain had a very strange shape because it became wider the higher they went, while the lower part was relatively thinner. It looked like a pyramid with half of its body pierced into the ground.
"The Hidden Flame Heavenly Fire is sealed here. The entrance is at the top. Let's fly up."
After Yan Dong gave a reminder, he took the lead and flew up, slowly floating towards the top of the mountain.
Xiao Lingyu followed closely behind, but he realized that the higher they went, the greater the spatial pressure. Furthermore, the surrounding fire-elemental energy became more violent, constantly squeezing towards the cultivators' bodies.
The mountain was not considered very tall, but it gave people the feeling that it was difficult to climb. The three Heaven Fire Hall experts had it easy. It was unknown what enchanted treasures they had on them, but even here, they were able to prevent the fire-elemental energies from approaching them.
In order to not expose his true cultivation level, Xiao Lingyu tried his best not to show any signs of strain. He even let the Chaos Nascent Soul release the Primordial Chaos Fire.
With the uniqueness of the Primordial Chaos Fire, ordinary fire-elemental energy did not dare approach it.
However, what Xiao Lingyu did not expect was that the top of the mountain was filled with extremely rich fire-elemental energy.
The three Heaven Fire Hall cultivators were no longer as relaxed as before. All of them had solemn expressions. The special equipment they had on them could no longer block the fire-elemental energy. They had to circulate all of their powers. Vigorous fire-elemental immortal spiritual power could block the fire-elemental energy.
Although the Primal Chaos Truefire could also resist the power of the origin of fire, because Xiao Lingyu had not deliberately improved the quality of his Primal Chaos Truefire for a long time, the power of the Primal Chaos Truefire was not too strong. In order to give himself the calmness of a Ninth Tribulation expert, Xiao Lingyu gathered the Primal Chaos Essence, and his body was immediately wrapped in a circle of gray light.
The Chaos Essence Qi was of a higher level than any origin energy in the Cultivation World. With it protecting Xiao Lingyu's body, even the Fire Origin Energy would automatically take a detour when it surged towards Xiao Lingyu.
The powerful aura of the Chaos essence was naturally sensed by the three top Heaven Fire Hall experts. When they saw that Xiao Lingyu remained calm, they were greatly astonished … As expected of a Nine Tribulations expert. She could remain calm even when facing Origins energy!
The top of the mountain was very flat, as if it had been cut by a giant sword. It looked more like a square square.
In the center of the mountain top, there was a building that looked like a small house. Yan Dong led everyone to the door of the house and stopped.
The door was tightly shut, and the entire house was wrapped in powerful restrictions and arrays. Even if these restrictions and arrays faintly emitted some aura fluctuations, it made Xiao Lingyu's heart palpitate.
Most importantly, this small house, like the mountain, exuded an ancient aura, as if it had existed for countless years.
Yan Dong's expression was solemn. His hands began to gesture in front of his chest, and he began to mutter.
After 10 breaths of time had passed, Yan Dong suddenly shouted loudly, and then he slapped the seal he'd formed on the door.
Immediately, the entire mountain shook gently, and the small house was wrapped in a ray of light. The door of the small house slowly opened.
The door opened extremely slowly in the first few moments, but Xiao Lingyu never expected that after a few moments, the door would suddenly open completely. At the same time, a powerful shockwave surged out of the door.
The three Heaven Fire Hall experts seemed to have expected it, as they quickly dodged to the sides of the door. Xiao Lingyu was caught off guard, and the shockwave swept across his body. Even with the Chaos essence protecting him, he could not help but take a few steps back before stabilizing himself.
"These three old fogeys did not warn me before. They were probably trying to test me."
The shockwave only swept past, and did not continue. Xiao Lingyu walked to the door once again, and when he saw the calm expressions of the three Heaven Fire Hall experts, he could not help but curse inwardly.
"Fellow Daoist, please enter. Once you enter the depths of the mountain, you will see the Hidden Flame Heavenly Fire." Yan Dong acted as if nothing had happened, and said while pointing at the door.
There were no other decorations in the small house, and there was only a bottomless hole. After Xiao Lingyu walked in, he glanced down and discovered that there was a stone staircase in the hole that extended into the bottomless darkness.
"Thank you for leading the way, Hall Master." Xiao Lingyu took a step to the side and let Yan Dong in front, and said with a calm expression.
"Hehe, the Hidden Flame Heavenly Fire has been very violent recently. Fellow Daoist, when you go down later, you must not act rashly. It's best if you restrain your cultivation aura tightly."
After Yan Dong said this with a smile, he led the two Seventh Tribulation experts down the stone staircase.
Xiao Lingyu still followed behind the three Heaven Fire Hall cultivators unhurriedly. The further down they went, although the spatial pressure was decreasing, the surrounding temperature was increasing. Furthermore, the fire-elemental Origin Energy here was denser than at the top of the mountain.
The three Heaven Fire Hall cultivators were very slow. They appeared to be very careful and did not dare to be careless.
Every thousand steps they went down, they would see a corridor connected to the stone staircase. There were many doors on both sides of the corridor. Clearly, there were secret rooms set up inside.
"These secret rooms are used for fire-elemental cultivators to cultivate. When fire-elemental cultivators cultivate in these secret rooms, their cultivation speed will double. The premise is that the cultivator can withstand such a fast speed." Yan Dong explained to Xiao Lingyu.
"No wonder the Fire Spirit Continent has the most experts among the Origin Continents. It's also the most prosperous continent. With such a cultivation treasure land, it can naturally produce a large number of experts." Xiao Lingyu nodded and thought to himself.
After going down about five thousand steps, they finally reached the end of the stone staircase.
The area at the end of the stone staircase was very small. It was less than thirty feet in length and width. Furthermore, the surroundings were not stone walls, but layers of silver restriction lines.
Boom!!!
As soon as the four of them arrived, the restriction began to rumble. Following that, the silver lines also began to crackle for a while.
"The Hidden Flame Heavenly Fire has been very irritable recently. It often attacks the restriction here. In a while, we will open the restriction and let you in. You must remember not to anger the Hidden Flame Heavenly Fire. Of course, with your strength, you have nothing to fear even if it is angered. However, you must be careful not to give the Hidden Flame Heavenly Fire a chance to rush out of the restriction. This is because the restriction will remain open after you enter." Yan Dong solemnly instructed Xiao Lingyu.
"Hehe, Hall Master Yan, don't worry. With me around, I guarantee that the Hidden Flame Heavenly Fire will not be able to rush out of this restriction."
Xiao Lingyu replied with a smile. As if to prove his strength or to reassure the Heaven Fire Hall experts, with a thought, the phoenix feather appeared in his hand. The six Demon Suppressing Immortal Pearls also circled above his head.
