In the deepest part of the Fire Source World in the Asura Empress' palace, there was a lone island in the middle of the sea of fire. There was a volcano on the island. For countless years, the volcano had been spewing out hot magma, which formed the current Sea of Fire after the magma fell.
No one knew how many years it took for this place to form the Sea of Fire. Until one day, the situation in the secret realm suddenly changed. A spatial gap suddenly appeared in the sky above the island, and after a flash of lightning, tribulation lightning directly fell.
After being struck by the lightning bolts, they scattered in all directions, stirring up the sea around the isolated island. Some of them even stirred up waves that were thirty to forty feet high in the lava.
The tribulation clouds remained for nearly a quarter of an hour before slowly dissipating. Finally, the spatial gap in the sky slowly shrank and disappeared without a trace. On the island, a figure that had been tempered by the heavenly lightning fell from the sky and directly disappeared into the volcano.
Tens of thousands of miles away, the deserted island near the Sea of Fire shook a few times again. A giant dragon head poked out of the Sea of Fire and looked into the distance for a while. In the end, it just raised its head and roared, then dove headfirst into the sea.
After the tribulation clouds, the volcano in the Sea of Fire did not erupt again. Thus, the Fire Source Secret Realm maintained peace for an unknown period of time. Until one day, many years later, a tremor came from the depths of the Sea of Fire. Then, a low roar came from the volcano on the island again. Then, the volcano resumed its eruption state.
At the same time, a purple fireball flew out into the sky. That purple light was Yi Tian's life true fire, the Purple Thunder Flame. However, this time, the Purple Thunder Flame was not like before, where it could only be released in wisps. After the wind blew, the Purple Thunder Flame was withdrawn into Yi Tian's mouth.
After the purple flame faded, Yi Tian's original appearance was revealed. It looked no different from before. His body was still in the Asura Dharma Body, but the six eyes on the three heads were dark purple.
After a while, the green spirit energy around his body was released again, and the deep purple color in his eyes slowly returned to its normal pitch black color. Yi Tian shook his head and stretched his limbs in the air. After that, he put away his Asura Celestial Body and flew towards the shore of the sea of fire.
Now that he had withdrawn all of his spiritual power, he only had the spiritual pressure fluctuations of a Yuanying cultivator. If he were in the outside world, he would definitely be mistaken for a low-grade cultivator.
This time, Yi Tian did not deliberately rush back, but he found that his speed had more than doubled compared to before. In comparison, he seemed to be more at ease.
After flying to the sea area where Ao Ling was previously, Yi Tian stopped in the air, then cupped his hands towards the deserted island and said, "Senior, it has been many years since we last met. How have you been?"
A deep dragon's roar erupted from beneath the sea again, following which a massive dragon head rose from the surface of the sea and slowly stopped in front of Yi Tian. Ao Ling said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect you to be able to successfully transcend the tribulation with two cultivation methods at the same time. It seems that as long as you don't die prematurely, your future achievements will definitely be above Luo Qin's."
"Senior, you flatter me. I'm just lucky." Yi Tian cupped his hands and said.
"Isn't luck a symbol of strength? Since ancient times, there have been more or less outstanding geniuses, but most of them have not reached your level. Or rather, some of the powerhouses were not as strong as you are now." Ao Ling sized him up and said.
"It's my honor to be able to catch senior's attention." Yi Tian replied politely, "Then, I wonder if I'm qualified to continue chatting with senior now?"
"Even though you've already reached the early-Body Integration Stage, there's still a long way to go before you can meet my requirements," Ao Ling said with a shake of his head. "I won't ask for much, as long as you can give me a drop of Immortal Energy Spiritual Liquid every 5,000 years."
"A drop every five thousand years? That's more than enough time. How can you help me, senior?" Yi Tian asked.
"With your strength, you are not the most powerful being in the outside world. At the very least, it would be very easy for Luo Qin to deal with you." Ao Ling thought for a moment before saying, "How about this? Come and find me when your cultivation base reaches the Grand Ascension Stage. At that time, if you can surprise me again, perhaps I will follow you."
"Follow me?" This time, it was Yi Tian's turn to be astonished. If he really had a demon beast like Ao Ling by his side, then he would be able to do as he pleased in the Upper Spirit Realm. Even if he were to face Grand Ascension Stage cultivators of the other realms, he would still be able to do so. However, from what Ao Ling was saying, he was still unable to make Ao Ling follow him.
Nodding, Yi Tian directly took out the remaining two drops of Immortal Essence Spiritual Liquid from his storage ring and gently handed them to Ao Ling, "These two drops are my advance for the next ten thousand years."
After Ao Ling sniffed it, he opened his mouth and swallowed it without hesitation. After that, he said with satisfaction, "Okay, in this case, I will sign an equal contract with you. When your cultivation base reaches the Grand Ascension Stage, come and find me. I will protect you for the next ten thousand years." After speaking, he opened his mouth again and spat out spiritual power. It condensed into a 'golden seal text' rune contract in the air.
Yi Tian stared at the 'golden seal text' rune contract for a while, then he reached out his finger and wrote his name on the contract with a stream of spiritual power. After a while, the rune contract slowly dissipated in the air and split into two golden lights that flew back into his forehead.
Then, Ao Ling spoke again, "I didn't give you anything in return for the drop of Immortal Essence Spiritual Liquid I took from you before. I just told you to come and find me after you passed the Thunder Tribulation. Now I see that your strength has improved a lot. What you lack is defense. " After speaking, a rock of a hundred feet in size automatically flew out from the barren mountain behind him. It constantly shrank in the air and turned into a three-inch tortoiseshell piece that fell into Yi Tian's hand.
After weighing this thing, Yi Tian's face couldn't help but change. This thing was Ao Ling's tortoiseshell. Its defense was probably beyond imagination.
"Thank you senior for your generous gift. This thing is comparable to all the top defensive spiritual treasures in this world." Yi Tian replied with a smile.
"You can refine this tortoiseshell piece into a defensive spiritual weapon. In the future, even if you encounter a Grand Ascension Stage cultivator with the strength of Luo Qin, you can withstand it." Ao Ling explained.
"May I know how to refine this tortoiseshell piece into a spiritual weapon?" Yi Tian asked.
"You can refine it with your natal true fire." Ao Ling said with a smile, "You're from the Immortal World's Nanming Li Fire Sect, so there's no problem."
