A moment later, the Pill Lightning scattered. The Northern King's tall and straight body landed beside Xiao Yan. Huo Qing's group revealed a strange expression as they looked at the puppet in front of them. If one were to take a closer look, the dragon scales on the surface of the Northern King's body seemed to have increased compared to before. Moreover, the lightning strength that continued to flow all over its body and its cold killing aura seemed to have become much more powerful.
"What a strange puppet. It can actually absorb lightning energy to refine itself. No wonder you have no fear of Pill Lightning." "Alright."
Huo Qing could not help but click his tongue in amazement at the sight of this strange puppet. Xiao Yan smiled faintly as his gaze landed on the Northern King's body. He could not help but frown after a careful inspection.
"Still mid 8-star Origin Ancestor?" "Alright."
After a round of inspection, Xiao Yan was shocked to discover that the Northern King's strength had not directly broken through like before. Although it was close to the late 8-star Origin Ancestor stage, the pill lightning's effect on the Northern King's strength had slowed down at a rate that was visible to the naked eye. Of course, it could not be denied that this was because the lightning energy had yet to be completely absorbed. However, such a result would inevitably make Xiao Yan feel disappointed.
Xiao Yan helplessly curled his lips. He returned the Northern King to his thoughts. When he extended his hand, a red-colored medicinal pill swiftly flew over from the space above the fire exit. With a flick of his finger, it was absorbed into a jade bottle. After which, it was handed to Huo Qing.
Huo Qing sighed in relief as he grasped the jade bottle in his hand. Soon after, he cupped his fists towards Xiao Yan with a rather solemn expression and said in a deep voice.
"Little fellow, many thanks!" "Alright."
At the side, Huo Rong and his sister both bowed with cupped fists, and their faces were filled with respectful expressions.
"Senior is too polite. I am only doing my best." "Alright."
Xiao Yan shook his head and helped the Huo siblings to their feet. Huo Qing repeatedly expressed his thanks before handing the jade bottle to Huo Xin. The most important thing right now was for this girl to use the pill to break through to the Origin Emperor stage as soon as possible. The Huo Banyan inheritance would also be officially activated!
While Xiao Yan and the others were waiting for Huo Xin to break through in the Huo Banyan Ruins, strange things continued to happen outside on the Flowing Fire Plains.
First, all the Fire Banyan branches in the Fire Banyan Forest mysteriously disappeared, followed closely by the Fire Scaled Lizard beasts diving into the depths of the magma. Outside the plains, the rivers of magma gradually dried up, revealing deep crevices. In the depths of the plains, a huge volcano suddenly emerged from the ground, boiling magma flowing in all directions. However, the experts in that area did not retreat, but instead advanced, guarding the periphery of the volcano for a long time.
. of the Huo of the Huo Banyan Ruins.
Xiao Yan, Huo Qing and the others stood in front of the Huo Banyan Tree. Huo Qing summoned the staff in his hand and raised his hands to his chest. After a series of lightning-quick hand seals, two balls of pure energy wrapped in scarlet flames slowly appeared on the treetops of the Huo Banyan Tree. When the staff was inserted into the ground, the seal covering the inheritance was gradually torn apart. Huo Xing and Huo Xin unhesitatingly leapt onto the treetops under Huo Qing's command. Their bodies gradually merged into the tree and the two of them fell into a deep sleep.
Huo Qing's old eyes could not help but surge with reluctance as he watched the siblings fall into a deep sleep. They had been companions for so many years. Now that they were separated, it would be difficult for anyone to calm down.
….
However, Huo Qing was also aware of the current situation. While his consciousness was still intact, he turned around without hesitation and used all his strength to erect a barrier at the entrance of the cave. This could be considered his final protection.
Xiao Yan stood quietly a short distance away. Everything here should be quietly handed over to this old man who had lived in this place for an unknown number of years. At the end of his life, other than those old friends from the past, what surfaced in his mind was this pair of children whom he had protected like his own son for many years …
"Little friend Xiao Yan, I'll have to entrust them to you! "
Huo Qing's body trembled slightly. Specks of light repeatedly scattered from his body. His consciousness had already begun to scatter. As his neck twitched, he appeared just like a deaf old man as he cried out loudly. It was as though he was afraid that Xiao Yan would not be able to hear him clearly. Only when he confirmed that Xiao Yan nodded heavily did he smile brightly. The glow in his pair of crimson eyes gradually disappeared. His entire body finally turned into starlight and disappeared from this realm.
At this moment, even with Xiao Yan's emotions, he could not help but feel a little choked up in his throat until the ground in front of him began to melt.
Xiao Yan gradually melted and a bright-red flame rose. It carried magma as it spread in all directions. Only then did Xiao Yan focus his attention and gather his strength. The sadness in his eyes gradually disappeared and turned into determination. At this moment, he could only comply with his agreement with the old man and do his best to become stronger. Only then would he have the opportunity to continue protecting this pair of brother and sister!
"Come … Volcanic Rock Flame!" "
After muttering to himself for a moment, this time, Xiao Yan decisively summoned four 'Heavenly Flames' and placed them in four different directions. He used the might of the 'Heavenly Flames' to stop the 'Volcanic Rock Flame' from continuing to spread. After a loud shout, he directly charged into the raging magma-like flames!
The devouring of the 'Heavenly Flames' began!
More than four months later.
In the deepest part of the Flowing Fire Plains, the volcano that had suddenly emerged from the ground a few months ago had now risen to a height of several thousand feet. The churning magma within had gradually fallen to a moderate position. If one looked carefully, there seemed to be something flowing rapidly within the magma.
The periphery of the volcano had already been occupied by figures that filled the sky. The strong people from various places had gathered here for no other reason than that the crater of the volcano was the true entrance to the Fire Banyan Relic. In another ten days, the magma within would completely dry up and the entrance below would be exposed. At that time, all the strong people present would be able to hold the Fire Banyan Token and successfully enter the Fire Banyan Relic!
At this moment, on a tall mountain peak outside the crater of the volcano, Bai Zijing, who was dressed in white, was standing with a few members of the Bai Clan behind him. Bai Rong, whose body was as dry as firewood, was also among them.
Looking at the boiling magma flowing out from the cracks at the edge of the crater of the volcano, a black-robed figure involuntarily appeared in Bai Zijing's mind. The fists under his sleeves gradually clenched together.
"Xiao Yan, once I return to the clan this time around, I will definitely personally drag you out of the Xiao clan. If I do not tear you into ten thousand pieces, how will I, Bai Zijing, have the face to meet my dead younger brother? "
At the same time, at the periphery of the Flowing Fire Plains, a green-robed figure swiftly rushed over from the horizon. Standing on the cliff, he looked at the vast plains that stretched as far as the eye could see. A hint of hope surfaced in his eyes. After a while, after confirming the general direction, the tip of his foot gently touched the ground. His body immediately transformed into a bolt of lightning and rushed towards the depths of the plains.
