(Supplement 4)
Ye Xing had to increase his speed to catch up!
With his speed, the distance he could cover in one day was equivalent to several days for others. Even if he was the last, Ye Xing still had a very high chance of being the first to pass through the sea of flames.
Not only could one travel in a straight line through the sea of flames, which greatly shortened the distance, there was another benefit: the chances of encountering Crystal Fire Beasts were higher.
Both the fire crystals and the meat of the Crystal Fire Beasts were good stuff. When Ye Xing encountered Crystal Fire Beasts, he naturally did not fear them and killed all of them.
In the past three days, aside from the two Crystal Fire Beasts he encountered earlier, he encountered five more. Ye Xing obtained a total of seven fire crystals and fifty kilograms of meat.
Of the seven fire crystals, the smallest one came from the Crystal Fire Beast equivalent to a Three Star Martial Sage. The largest one came from the Crystal Fire Beast equivalent to a Six Star Martial Sage.
As for the other five Crystal Fire Beasts, four were equivalent to Four Star Martial Sages and one was equivalent to a Five Star Martial Sage.
It could be seen that the Crystal Fire Beasts in the sea of flames were equivalent to Four Star Martial Sages. There were more of them.
On the fourth day, Ye Xing increased his speed. The number of Crystal Fire Beasts he encountered in the sea of flames increased.
In just two hours, Ye Xing encountered two Crystal Fire Beasts equivalent to Four Star Martial Sages. Ye Xing killed both of them and obtained the fire crystals and meat.
At this rate, Ye Xing would probably encounter more than ten Crystal Fire Beasts after walking through the sea of flames for the entire day. If he could kill them all, just the flame crystals and tender meat he would obtain would be a huge fortune.
However, after killing the second Crystal Fire Beast, Ye Xing walked forward for less than a quarter of an hour before he stopped and changed his direction, heading to the right.
Ye Xing had comprehended the power of fire and was extremely sensitive to flames. Not far to the left, Ye Xing sensed the aura of a special flame.
The reason why it was special was because the aura of this flame was completely different from the flames in the sea of fire. It was purer and hotter, as if it was of a higher grade.
Ye Xing's Flame Astral Aspect still had room for improvement. It was just that the level of the flames in the sea of fire was too low. Now that Ye Xing had sensed a higher level of flames, he naturally had to go and take a look.
If the Black Hole Astral Form could devour its fire essence and increase the strength of the Fire Astral Form, that would be a great thing.
Ye Xing sensed the source of the special flame after moving forward for several dozen kilometers. It was already in his line of sight.
After comprehending the power of fire, the effect of fire on Ye Xing's eyesight was greatly reduced. Several miles in front of him, there was a mountain of fire that was several thousand meters tall. The special flame he sensed was at the peak of that mountain.
However, Ye Xing's gaze was far away. After breaking through the layers of flames, he did not see the special flame. Instead, he saw a large number of Crystal Fire Beasts on the mountain peak.
There were several hundred Crystal Fire Beasts. The weak ones were equivalent to Two or Three Star Martial Sages, while the strong ones were equivalent to Five or Six Star Martial Sages. These were only a small number, about one-tenth of the total.
In particular, the Crystal Fire Beasts that were equivalent to Two Star and Six Star Martial Sages were even rarer. There were only five of them that were equivalent to Two Star Martial Sages and three that were equivalent to Six Star Martial Sages.
Most of the Crystal Fire Beasts were equivalent to Four Star Martial Sages, accounting for ninety percent of the total.
If Ye Xing wanted to obtain the special flame, he would have to climb this mountain. However, once he did, he would definitely be discovered by these Crystal Fire Beasts.
In a one-on-one fight, although Ye Xing had killed Crystal Fire Beasts equivalent to Six Star Martial Sages, he was definitely not a match for these several hundred Crystal Fire Beasts.
Each Crystal Fire Beast could stomp Ye Xing into meat paste with one stomp.
However, Ye Xing was unwilling to retreat just like that. What was that special flame?
Why was its aura so much stronger than the other flames?
Ye Xing really wanted to know. He wanted to get to the bottom of this. Furthermore, he had some suspicions in his heart. Could that flame with an extraordinary aura be a fire seed?
A flame seed was the source of all flames. A flame without a source would be extinguished after its fuel was used up. A flame seed, on the other hand, did not need fuel and would never be extinguished.
Every flame seed was extremely rare and had a close relationship with the origin of all flames. It was said that any flame seed, when promoted to the peak, could become the origin of all flames.
It was because of this that a flame seed was called the origin of all flames!
The tender meat of the Crystal Fire Beasts was a priceless treasure, but that was only relative. A flame seed was truly a priceless treasure that everyone wanted.
If one could obtain a flame seed, it would be an unimaginable gain. In the entire Qingyun District, there were countless cultivators and more than ten sects. However, there might not even be a single flame seed!
In the Qingyun District, a flame seed was a legend!
Ye Xing had comprehended the power of fire. His perception of fire was different from that of ordinary people. Although he had never seen a flame seed before, he had a strong feeling that the special flame on the mountain peak was a flame seed.
Especially as he approached the mountain peak, the feeling became even stronger.
First, Ye Xing could feel that the special flame was not large. If it was a certain type of flame, it should be very large. Just like the flames around Ye Xing, they were connected into a sea of fire. It was impossible for a single type of flame to only burn in a small cluster. This was not normal.
Second, Ye Xing could feel that the special flame had an aura of vicissitudes. It was not like a flame that constantly burned, but more like an eternal flame seed.
"Whether or not it is a flame seed, I have to go up the mountain and take a look. I have to obtain this special flame!"
Ye Xing thought to himself. Although there were several hundred Crystal Fire Beasts on the mountain, Ye Xing was not completely helpless.
He was not only a martial artist, but also an array master!
When he was still a thousand meters away from the mountain peak, Ye Xing began to arrange the array. After comprehending the power of fire, Ye Xing turned the flame into energy and used the flame to inscribe the array patterns. The array he arranged would not be damaged by the flame. Moreover, the power of the array would be strengthened by the flame.
Ye Xing used half of his celestial essence to guide the flame and inscribe the array patterns, and the other half used low-grade celestial crystals to guide the flame. The arrangement speed was very fast. In half an hour, he had arranged a Coiling Snake Array!
Ye Xing's Coiling Snake Array had not reached the small success stage. It was more than enough to deal with a beginner Martial Sage. However, it was not enough to deal with a mid-level Martial Sage.
However, if one was not enough, what about two, three … or even ten?
If he could chain one layer after another to form a chain array, even if it was an ordinary Coiling Snake Array, under the control of the array master, it would have the power to kill a four-star Martial Sage.
As long as the Coiling Snake Array had the power to kill a four-star Martial Sage, Ye Xing planned to harvest this group of Crystal Fire Beasts. The Crystal Fire Beasts were equivalent to five-star or six-star Martial Sages. He could completely rely on the array and his own strength to deal with them.
Soon, two Coiling Snake Arrays were arranged.
At this time, the surrounding flames surged in one direction like waves, forming a Flame Tide. Ye Xing had been here for two hours.
The Flame Tide contained a strong impact force. Even a four-star Martial Sage would find it difficult to resist. However, it was not a threat to Ye Xing.
Ye Xing could withstand the Flame Tide with just his celestial essence defense. Moreover, Ye Xing had the Flame Astral Aspect and comprehended the power of fire. The power of ordinary flames could not hurt him. There was no need to defend at all.
Even in the middle of the Flame Tide, Ye Xing continued to arrange the array.
One Coiling Snake Array after another was successfully arranged by Ye Xing. When the fourth Flame Tide passed, Ye Xing had already arranged eight Coiling Snake Arrays. The eight Coiling Snake Arrays were connected head to tail. The arrays were layered one after another. With Ye Xing, the array master, the power of the array was at its strongest state. Killing a four-star Martial Sage would be a piece of cake!
After doing all this, Ye Xing adjusted his breath for a while and restored his celestial essence to the peak. Then, he began to attack the Crystal Fire Beasts on the mountain peak.
He stood in the array, a thousand meters away from the mountain peak. He was also a few thousand meters away from the Crystal Fire Beasts on the mountain peak. This distance was not far compared to the range of his bow and arrow.
Two rays of starlight shot out from Ye Xing's glabella. One turned into a dark vortex, and the other turned into a starry arrow. The surroundings were suddenly shrouded in darkness.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Ye Xing took out three blue sandalwood arrows and shot them at the same time. The arrows, which contained the power of the Sagittarius Constellation, the power of wind, the power of darkness, and the power of fire, instantly left the bowstring and shot toward a six-star Crystal Fire Beast.
A six-star Crystal Fire Beast was not easy to deal with, especially when there were three of them. Ye Xing would have a hard time dealing with them. Therefore, taking advantage of the sneak attack, Ye Xing wanted to get rid of the strongest Crystal Fire Beast first.
After being attacked by Ye Xing, the Crystal Fire Beast instantly fell into darkness. It felt as if the world had turned dark. At this time, three arrows were shot at three of its vital points.
The Crystal Fire Beast was suddenly attacked. Before it could react, three of its vital points were hit by the arrows. It immediately let out a shrill scream and fell to the ground, twitching.
This Crystalfire Beast was one of the three strongest Crystalfire Beasts. When it was suddenly ambushed and shot by an arrow, it was fatally wounded. This gave the other Crystalfire Beasts a fright. Some of the Crystalfire Beasts were so frightened that they scattered.
Only the other two strongest Crystal Fire Beasts were slightly calmer. However, they also revealed expressions of fear. They immediately looked in Ye Xing's direction.
This result was out of Ye Xing's expectations. Ye Xing thought that after killing one of the Crystal Fire Beasts, the other Crystal Fire Beasts would swarm toward him. He did not expect that after killing the strongest Crystal Fire Beast, the other Crystal Fire Beasts would be intimidated. A portion of them even fled.
Nearly a third of the Crystal Fire Beasts fled. There were a total of one hundred and fifty to sixty Crystal Fire Beasts. With so many Crystal Fire Beasts fleeing, the pressure on Ye Xing lessened by a lot.
These several hundred Crystal Fire Beasts were not a complete group. In fact, they were made up of three small groups. Each Crystal Fire Beast was equivalent to a six-star Martial Saint and was the leader of a small group.
Ye Xing had killed a Crystal Fire Beast that was equivalent to a Six Star Martial Saint, which meant that he had killed a leader. With the leader killed, the group of Crystal Fire Beasts that the Crystal Fire Beast ruled over was naturally frightened and scattered.
Roar —
Roar —
In the blink of an eye, the other two strongest Crystal Fire Beasts roared. They had discovered Ye Xing's position and ordered the group of Crystal Fire Beasts to attack Ye Xing.
