The streets of Flaming Cloud City were very old. The bluestone on the ground was full of potholes, which was the result of pedestrians stepping on it. One could imagine how old it was.
The city was full of life, and everywhere was fiery red. The people of this state loved the Firecloud Trees. They were like huge torches on both sides of the road, like fire dragons lying on the side of the street.
Ye Fan walked on the street, very relaxed, like an ordinary person. He was touring the ancient city with a completely casual look.
In the past, this city had produced the Clan of the Ancients. Although it no longer existed, there would be some young cultivators coming here every year, hoping to obtain some kind of inheritance.
Unfortunately, the eternal family that had existed for hundreds of thousands of years had become the dust of history, leaving nothing for future generations.
Ye Fan was not in a hurry to act. He did not go to find the Ji family. Instead, he walked along the ancient street and carefully observed the city. He felt the heaviness of time.
This was the accumulation of time and time. The ancient city was indeed extraordinary. It had experienced so much time that it made people feel a kind of heaviness.
The city was very prosperous, worthy of being the center of this oasis, but it was not noisy. On both sides of the wide ancient street, the Firecloud Trees sprinkled a large area of shade. There were many pedestrians, but it was not crowded.
For a long time, Ye Fan had been cultivating. Occasionally, he would relax and wander around the ancient city, feeling a little ethereal.
The people coming and going could not affect him. He went with the flow and walked on the ancient street aimlessly. He became more and more relaxed, and his spirit and spirit became one. He actually entered a wonderful state.
Ye Fan's clothes were not stained by a speck of dust. He was light and elegant. Every movement of his seemed to be one with the world. He walked in the crowd but it was so natural. Every step he took produced a trace of dao.
In the palace, the Passing Self was chanting for this life. The Dao Self was connecting the world, comprehending the Great Path, and nourishing the Life Lord. The mental cultivation method recorded in the Western Emperor Scripture ran on its own.
At the same time, Ye Fan's golden sea of bitterness fluctuated. A green lotus trembled, and the mist was hazy. The secret technique obtained from the remains of the Sacred Body of the Ancients, combined with the Dao Scripture, ran on its own.
At this moment, the profound arts ran parallel to each other, harmonizing with nature. The Sea of Reincarnation and the Dao Palace pulsed, and divine power flowed from top to bottom, making him feel as if he was connected to the heavens and the earth, as if he was flying through the clouds.
Ye Fan was as ethereal as the Dao. Although he was standing in the sea of people, he seemed to be standing in the clouds, giving off a sense of transcendence.
He knew that this was a kind of wondrous profound realm, it was a kind of comprehension and comprehension towards cultivation. The Sea of Reincarnation and dao palaces resonated in harmony, allowing his dao energy to grow endlessly.
Ye Fan walked all the way down and unknowingly arrived at a special place in the city. This place was the center of the city, but there were no magnificent buildings.
There were many ancient trees planted here, and it wasn't limited to the Firecloud Tree. There were all kinds of evergreen trees and ancient vines. Many of the old trees would require more than ten people to wrap their arms around them. The ancient vines were as thick as a person's waist. It was truly astonishing to find such a place in the center of a city.
These were the traces left behind by the Clan of the Remote Antiquity in the past. There were many rubble under the old vines, recording the rise and fall of the clan in the past.
In truth, the entire ancient city used to be a corner of the Clan of the Remote Antiquity, but unfortunately, everything no longer existed. There were only some ruins left under the ancient trees.
Ye Fan very naturally walked to this place. His body and mind were ethereal. Although he couldn't break into the fourth Heavenly Layer of the Dao Palace, he was able to experience a kind of nature. The world was born for him and all things were one.
He was undergoing a kind of baptism. His body shimmered and his mind was filled with energy. His body and mind were tempered and sublimated, allowing his original realm to approach perfection.
He was still at the third Heavenly Layer of the Dao Palace, but he felt very different. The Sea of Reincarnation and the pulse of the Dao Palace were in sync and he could grasp traces of the Dao.
Yes, the Dao Scripture and Western Emperor Sutra had blended in harmony for the first time. It caused his body and mind to become clear. Every movement he made seemed to be waving the Great Dao.
"The Sea of Reincarnation and the Dao Palace resonate in harmony. The Dao Scripture and the Western Emperor Sutra exist side by side, flawless and without flaw. As expected, these are the two strongest heart methods."
Ye Fan broke out of this wondrous state and muttered to himself. He felt that after the two sutras harmonized, his combat strength had increased by a great deal and he was even closer to the Great Dao.
He gently gestured. Although he hadn't truly struck out with the offensive arts of the Nine Secrets, he could sense that their might had increased by a great deal. This was a small transformation from a technique to the Dao.
"The power of the Dao …" Ye Fan followed the ancient street and left this place.
He walked around the ancient city and after obtaining enough information, he left Flaming Cloud City and vanished into the horizon.
Not long after, Ye Fan returned to Flaming Cloud City and walked towards the Ji Family's stone gambling den. This was a building built in a garden and dozens of knights lived here.
"What? Someone provided a clue?!"
This garden occupied a very large area. Stone materials were piled up and there were palaces and pavilions. Dozens of strange beasts were tied up in the garden, each of them fierce and fierce.
Ye Fan stood in the garden. He didn't have to wait for too long before dozens of youths rushed out. They had all met outside the city gates.
"You saw that cripple. Where is he? How far is he from Flaming Cloud City?" asked the young man in the lead.
His name was Ji Yunge and he was a cultivator at the fifth firmament of the Dao Palace. He was the leader of this group of people and he was very calm.
"If I provide a clue, do you want to immediately give me 100,000 kilograms of Source?" asked Ye Fan.
"What are you talking about?" A disciple of the Ji Family glared at him and said coldly, "Providing a clue is just 10,000 kilograms of Source. You really dare to demand such an exorbitant price from my Ji Family."
When the people beside him heard this, they were delighted. Ji Yunteng sneered and said, "This Ye brat has finally been discovered. This time, I will turn him to dust."
"That's how it should be. For a cripple like him, he made us run around so much but to no avail. We should have killed him long ago."
"He's just a cripple at the second firmament of the Dao Palace. Killing him is as easy as pie. It's just that we can't find his whereabouts. This time, we will refine him to death!"
These people were filled with resentment. All of them wanted to immediately kill Ye Fan and snatch the cauldron away. It wasn't only because they had been searching for him in the past few days, but also because the Ji Family's Grand Elder had been burned to death. It made everyone feel stifled.
It would have been fine if he had been killed by a powerhouse, but a dignified Grand Elder had been burned to death by a puny cultivator. It made them feel humiliated. The most effective way to wash away this humiliation was to kill Ye Fan.
Ye Fan asked for 10,000 kilograms of Source so that they could fulfill their promise.
"Bring us to that mountain range first. If the clues are true, you will naturally be rewarded." Ji Yunge smiled.
Many people revealed looks of disgust. They never expected him to really dare to ask for a reward from the Ji Family. It surprised them and at the same time, they despised him.
They had received some clues before, but they were all provided by cultivators for free. They did not dare to ask for Source Stones and only wanted to form a closer relationship with them.
"I saw that the reward is written very clearly. As long as you provide a clue, you will be rewarded with Source Stones." Ye Fan did not back down.
"What if the clue you provided is fake?" Ji Yunteng sneered disdainfully.
"In this world, is there anyone who dares to play tricks on the Ji Family? Besides, I want to bring you guys there. Am I not afraid of losing my life?" Ye Fan argued.
"You are really interesting!" Ji Yunteng's expression was cold. He had already said it like this, yet he still dared to ask for Source Stones. Did he not want to live too long?
"Alright, we don't have time to waste. Go to the stone square and get 5,000 kilograms of Source Stones!" Ji Yunge waved his hand and ordered someone to get the Source Stones. He said, "If the clues are true, I will give you the other half of the Source Stones. If we can catch Ye Fan because of your clues, it won't be a problem to give you 100,000 kilograms of Source Stones. "
Not long after, someone brought over 5,000 kilograms of Source Stones. They shone brightly and were placed in a pile. Ye Fan did not stand on ceremony and kept them all with a wave of his sleeve.
"Now, bring us to that mountain range." Ji Yunteng sneered, the killing intent in his eyes flashing.
Ji Yunfeng smiled slightly and did not say anything. He waved his hand and ordered everyone to ride on their strange beasts. At the same time, they also found a savage beast for Ye Fan to sit on as a means of transportation.
Dozens of riders rushed out of Fire Cloud City. Many people in the city were surprised. Seeing them in such a hurry, they knew that something big must have happened.
These strange beasts were all extraordinary. After leaving Fire Cloud City, they all stepped on the air and flew high into the sky. Like a flood rushing across the sky, they rumbled and rushed towards the mountain range that Ye Fan mentioned.
"It's that mountain range in front." Ye Fan pointed to a lush mountain range in front of them.
Dozens of riders immediately spread out and surrounded the mountain peak that Ye Fan pointed to.
"There really is someone cultivating here. There are Dao patterns here …" A Ji Family disciple came forward. He was quite knowledgeable about Dao patterns and quickly broke the restriction.
Dozens of riders were filled with killing intent. They rushed up and came to the peak of the mountain. They directly split open the cave abode, causing smoke and dust to soar into the sky.
"There's no one!" Immediately, a Ji Family disciple revealed killing intent and looked at Ye Fan.
"Don't look at me like that. It has nothing to do with me. I only provided a clue. Who knew that he would suddenly leave." Ye Fan was very innocent.
Ji Yunge waved his hand and personally entered the cave abode to observe. The others also followed.
"This robe is exactly the same as the one he wore that day. It really is him!"
"Look, there are traces of the Giant Void Palm Print here. This cave abode was opened with a giant palm print!"
The Ji Family disciples quickly discovered many important clues. They were all filled with hatred and gritted their teeth.
"Damn it, we let him escape again. Otherwise, I would have trampled him to death with a single stomp!"
They felt suffocated. A trash with only a cultivation at the second firmament of the Dao Palace had repeatedly stirred up such a storm and was able to escape each time. They wished they could immediately capture him and burn him to ashes.
"Now do you believe me? I definitely wouldn't dare to provide false clues." Ye Fan said from the side. At this moment, he felt killing intent. Someone wanted to deal with him. However, he did not panic. With a calm expression, he said, "When we return, you can pay me the other 2,500 kilograms of Source, right?"
"Aren't you afraid that we will kill you here?" Ji Yunteng sneered.
"Before I came, many people in Fire Cloud City knew that I left the city to provide you with clues. I believe that the Ji Family is trustworthy." Ye Fan did not care. Even if there were powerhouses at the fifth firmament of the Dao Palace among these people, their speed was definitely not as fast as his. There was no need to worry that he would not be able to escape.
Ji Yunge smiled and said, "When we return, I will pay you the other 2,500 kilograms of Source. The Ji Family will keep their word."
After lingering here for a long time and searching the entire mountain range, everyone returned to Fire Cloud City. Ye Fan followed them into the garden.
"This guy must have eaten the guts of a leopard. He really dares to ask for a bounty!" A disciple of the Ji Family said coldly.
Ji Yunge glared at him and said, "This is the bounty set by the Ji Family. Don't mess around. If I find out that you have damaged the family's reputation, don't blame me for not letting you off!"
Not long after, the 2,500 kilograms of Source was brought. Ji Yunge walked out and personally handed it to Ye Fan, letting him leave.
Ye Fan thanked him with a smile on his face and left without looking back.
"Giving him 10,000 kilograms of Source just like that? The clues he provided are useless. He didn't even see the shadow of that Ye guy!" Someone was indignant.
Ji Yunge swept a few glances at them and said, "The people of Fire Cloud City are watching. Do you want to kill him here? This is not without its benefits. It is like buying a bone with a thousand gold. In the future, someone will send us even more valuable clues. "
At this point, Ji Yunge's expression froze. He said, "Where did Ji Yunteng and Ji Yunbiao go?"
"They followed him out, most likely …"
"Nonsense, if word of this gets out, how will others look at my Ji Family!" Ji Yunge was furious.
"With Ji Yunteng's temper, he definitely can't stand it. He doesn't want him to take away 10,000 kilograms of Source just by talking. I think he has most likely killed him now." Another disciple of the Ji Family said.
Ji Yunge smashed a stone table in the garden with his palm. After a moment of silence, he said, "Since it has already come to this, let's send a few more people. Make things more beautiful. I don't want any rumors to spread."
On the outskirts of Fire Cloud City, Ye Fan stopped in his tracks. He turned around and said with a smile, "Friends of the Ji Family, why are you so enthusiastic? You've already sent me out of the city, why haven't you returned?"
"Swish, swish!"
Ji Yunteng and Ji Yunbiao's figures flashed out from the shadows. Both of them were filled with killing intent as they pressed forward step by step.
"You want to kill me, why is that?" Ye Fan's face darkened. He looked at the two of them and said, "I kindly provided you with clues, why do you repay kindness with enmity?"
"Brat, do you think it's so easy to take my Ji Family's Source? Just by moving your lips, it's 10,000 kilograms of Source. How can there be such a good thing! "Ji Yunteng sneered.
"You guys are too cold by nature. No matter what, I'm the one who provided the clues, yet you guys want to kill me."
"So what if we kill you? You brought us to an empty cave abode and took away the Source just like that. Don't you feel that it's a bit troublesome?!" Ji Yunbiao was filled with killing intent.
Ye Fan suddenly laughed out loud, looking very carefree.
"You're about to die, what's there to laugh about? I'll send you on your way!"
"Do you guys think you can kill me?" A cold smile hung on the corner of Ye Fan's mouth, and he said, "I'm afraid you'll lose your lives here."
"You … You've only just entered the Dao Palace Secret Realm. You dare to compete with the bright moon with the light of a firefly?" Ji Yunteng sneered again and again, revealing his killing intent.
"Killing you is no different from crushing a bug to death." Ji Yunbiao rushed over and slapped down with a Giant Void Handprint.
The giant black hand covered the sky, covering Ye Fan beneath it, making a rumbling sound.
"Pa!"
At this moment, Ye Fan attacked. A giant golden palm swept across the sky, smashing the giant black hand and covering Ji Yunbiao, whose face was filled with horror.
Puff!
It was hard to imagine how powerful the giant golden palm was. It directly smashed Ji Yunbiao into pieces, smashing him into minced meat and making him disappear.
"You … Who are you?!" Ji Yunteng shouted.
A powerhouse at the Third Firmament of the Dao Palace had been killed by a single slap. It really made him shudder.
"I'm the Ye Fan you said you could crush with one foot."
"What, how could it be you?!" Ji Yunteng retreated in shock, his face extremely livid.
"Haha …" Ye Fan laughed and said, "Of course it's me. Thank you for giving me the Source. I'll use it to cultivate."
"You …" When Ji Yunteng heard this, he thought about everything that had happened. He was so angry that his body trembled and his fingers trembled.
