In the blink of an eye, Ye Kong had already flown near the top of the flaming mountain.
Under the dark clouds that filled the sky, the flame that soared into the sky was even brighter. As he neared, he discovered that the center of the bright red flame was actually transparent white.
"It's really cold!" Generally speaking, a cultivator's ability to adapt to cold and heat was many times better than a mortal's. However, this world-famous Cangbei Frigid Fire was not an ordinary item. When they got close to it, even a cultivator like Ye Kong felt the blood in his body begin to solidify.
As he neared it, he felt that even the Spirit Qi in his body began to circulate sluggishly.
"No, I have to descend. I can't take it in the air." Ye Kong looked down and saw that at the highest point of the flaming mountain, there was a pentagonal altar. There was a tall stone pillar at each of the five corners of the altar, and each stone pillar was tied with a black chain as thick as an arm. The five chains converged at the center of the altar, and the Cangbei Frost Fire was spurting from the center of the five chains into the sky.
"Big Yu, does the Cangbei Frost Fire have to be attached to the metal chains?" Ye Kong asked in confusion.
Big Yu also did not understand his question and replied, "I guess these metal chains are locking the frost fire and not allowing it to move freely."
"Locking the fire with metal chains? What a joke. But if we want to obtain the frost fire, how do we undo the metal chains? "How to take the frost fire away after seeing it was a problem.
Big Yu laughed. "The Water-Fire Gourd. I heard that Elder Shi used the Water-Fire Gourd to retrieve the Cangbei Frost Fire, so don't blame Little Yu for making things difficult for you. If she hadn't given you the gourd, you wouldn't have been able to retrieve the frost fire even after seeing it."
Ye Kong had also thought about the Water-Fire Gourd, but Big Yu was inside. The Cangbei Frost Fire was extraordinarily powerful, and he was worried that Big Yu would not be able to withstand it.
Knowing Ye Kong's concerns, Big Yu laughed. "Young Master, you don't have to worry about this. The water and fire in the gourd are separated and do not affect each other." Big Yu then urged, "Young Master, you'd better act quickly. In a moment, the black clouds hanging over the mountain will dissipate."
"Alright!"
Ye Kong descended and jumped off the flying carpet before it even touched the ground.
It was really cold. Ye Kong exhaled, and the white mist quickly turned into ice shards that fell on the ground of the altar.
Looking again, the five iron chains that locked the cold fire were actually covered with icicles. Dark clouds rolled in the sky, and a huge flame shot into the sky from the altar at the top of the mountain. The source of the flame was five black iron chains that were as thick as a man's arm, covered with icicles. This scene was as strange as it could get.
However, what made Ye Kong even more surprised was that the Fire Qilin was sleeping on a jade platform below the altar. This was the first time that Ye Kong had seen this kind of Mythological Beast. He discovered that the so-called Fire Qilin was actually a fiery red Qilin.
Contrary to Ye Kong's imagination, Fireshine wasn't very big. It was about the size of a large wolfhound. This made Ye Kong feel a little contemptuous.
"Fireshine, so it's just a little kitten. You'd better not wake up, or else I'll catch you and make you my mount!" Ye Kong coldly snorted and took out the Water-Fire Gourd. He silently chanted a spell and pointed at the cold fire with his index and middle fingers.
"Collect!"
The cold fire that shot into the sky seemed to be attracted by some kind of force. It slowly deviated, and the fire head aimed at the gourd.
Then, a wisp of the cold fire that was locked in the chains was slowly pulled out and quickly absorbed into the Water-Fire Gourd.
However, it wasn't over yet. Ye Kong didn't want a wisp. He wanted to absorb all of the cold fire into the gourd. This way, he could conveniently take away the five black chains. These chains had been exposed to the flames and the bitter cold for more than a hundred thousand years without suffering any damage. Obviously, they weren't ordinary materials.
Seeing that the Cangbei Cold Fire was about to be completely absorbed, a soul-shaking roar suddenly came from behind.
"Roar!" Fireshine was furious. As a guardian spirit beast, it had a spiritual connection with the treasures it guarded. It was furious that the cold fire had been taken away.
Ye Kong looked back and saw that Fireshine was no longer the same as before. It was a little kitten that was growing rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it had grown several times bigger and had become a majestic giant Fire Qilin.
"Collect quickly!" Ye Kong let go of the Water-Fire Gourd and continued to absorb the Cangbei Cold Fire. He quickly took out the Black Suo Sword.
"Phew!" Fireshine spat out a mouthful of scorching fire. Then, it stomped on its hind legs and leaped onto the altar.
Ye Kong didn't dare to be careless. He somersaulted backwards and dodged the scorching fire. Then, instead of retreating, he charged towards Fireshine.
"Clang, clang, clang." There was a sound of metal clashing. The Black Suo Sword produced several golden-red sparks on Fireshine's body.
With a flip of his body, Ye Kong was already standing behind Fireshine.
This guy snatched the cold fire and dared to take the initiative to attack. This completely ignited Fireshine's anger.
"Crack!" Fireshine's sharp claws scratched the ground of the altar, making an ear-piercing sound.
"What are you doing? Do you think I'm afraid of you? Come on! " Ye Kong provoked Fireshine and attracted its attention. The Water-Fire Gourd had already absorbed more than half of the cold fire.
Fireshine was furious and pounced again. Its two thick front claws whistled through the air as if they could tear everything apart.
There was a loud bang and stone fragments flew everywhere.
Even the thick and heavy jade that was laid on the altar couldn't block the Fire Unicorn's claw. Looking at the big hole that looked like a big mouth behind him, Ye Kong, who had barely dodged the attack, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. This Divine Beast's power was really fierce.
"Come on, come on." Ye Kong shouted. He jumped off the altar and ran on the stone mountain.
Fireshine followed like a shadow. On top of the stone mountain, a red flame followed a white shadow flying at high speed.
"Roar!" Fireshine chased after it a few times, but it didn't catch up. It immediately stopped and roared to the sky.
The fire attribute spiritual energy around it quickly condensed and soon turned into a huge fireball. Then, like a meteor, the fireball smashed towards Ye Kong with raging fire.
"This is Blazing Meteor!" Big Jade in the Water-Fire Gourd hurriedly reminded, "Fireshine's special spell. Be careful. With your cultivation, you can't block it!"
Hearing this, Ye Kong stopped the idea of blocking. He raised the bone shield and flew backward.
"Boom!" The Blazing Meteor fiercely smashed onto the place where Ye Kong was standing just now. Only then did Ye Kong realize how powerful this Blazing Meteor was. Putting aside the huge pit on the ground, what was even more powerful was that this Blazing Meteor was still burning even after it smashed onto the ground. It even burnt the red rocks into a few pieces, yet it did not stop.
Looking at the giant bone shield in his hand, there were several black holes burned by the splashing sparks.
"This Mythological Beast is really powerful. An ordinary defensive magic tool can't even block the splashing sparks!"
Ye Kong's surprise didn't last long because soon there was something that shocked him even more.
