After receiving Xuan Jizi's message, Yi Tian hurried over. He didn't expect to meet Ceng Shun, one of the Li Fire Elders. If Han Liu could faintly sense that he had a cultivation method of the same origin, there was no reason why the stronger Ceng Shun couldn't.
Just as Yi Tian was feeling a headache, the wisp of Li Flame that he had cultivated in his Niwan Palace suddenly flared up. It instantly covered Yuanying's body in a thin layer of emerald green feathers. Yi Tian carefully examined it and felt as if Ceng Shun was secretly observing him. However, when the Li Flame covered Yuanying's body, the feeling of being secretly watched disappeared.
If he guessed correctly, the Li Flame he cultivated should have the ability to isolate his senses. He immediately calmed down. Thus, he walked forward and bowed to Ceng Shun in return.
A trace of doubt flashed through Ceng Shun's eyes before quickly returning to normal. Then, the three of them gathered together to discuss this operation. After listening to Xuan Jizi's explanation, Yi Tian understood that Nine Immortal Mountain was paying extra attention to Yan Peigong. Thus, they arranged for several cultivators to lead teams of three to search for Yan Peigong's whereabouts.
Xuan Jizi's team just happened to have two experts from the Spirit Realm. They were also the strongest team. With his participation, they could naturally kill Yan Peigong on the spot if they encountered him in a four against one battle.
However, while the idea was good, Yan Peigong was no fool. When faced with such a three-man team, Yan Peigong would naturally avoid them.
Although Nine Immortal Mountain had set up an inescapable net over the years, they still didn't have the chance to catch him.
However, this trip to the Beast King's Cave was different. Xuan Jizi gave a brief overview of the recent pursuit and said, "There is a Corpse Prison in the Yuanhao Dynasty. Many of the remaining demon cultivators of the Yuanhao Dynasty are imprisoned there. If Yan Peigong has the chance, he definitely won't miss it and will release them. "
"Fellow Daoist Xuan Jizi, don't you think you're overestimating yourself? The Yuan Hao Dynasty has already been destroyed for fifty to sixty thousand years. The demonic cultivators imprisoned in the Floating Corpse Prison should have exhausted their lifespans by now, right?" Yi Tian asked in confusion.
"Regular daemons are obviously unable to live that long," said Xuan Jizi, "However, according to what I know, the daemons of the Turtle clan and the cultivators of the Fiery Phoenix clan who can undergo nirvanic rebirth are naturally able to last that long. At the same time, the daemons of the Daemonic God back then were only able to cause the current trouble because of a moment of benevolence."
"Why is there someone from the Fire Phoenix Tribe involved as well?" Yi Tian asked in surprise, "I wonder if any of the Fire Dragon Tribe's demon cultivators are involved as well?"
Xuan Jizi nodded and replied, "The two of you may not know this, but although the Yuan Hao Dynasty has long been overthrown, the few princes, dukes, and ministers left behind were all outstanding figures of their respective races, and their cultivations have long reached the ninth level. Coupled with their extraordinary abilities, it's not impossible for them to break free from the corpse prison, but it's not impossible for them to struggle at death's door. "
"According to what you've said, Yan Peigong will definitely use this opportunity to enter the prison and open it. If that happens, the Daemonic Realm will fall into chaos," Ceng Shun also lost his cool and asked.
"That is indeed possible," said Xuan Jizi, "And according to the records of the Nine Immortal Mountain, there are plenty of ancient daemonic beasts suppressed in the Yuan Hao Dynasty. If they were allowed to break free, it would be a matter of imminent danger."
"If that's the case, why hasn't senior Scarletbeard taken action?" Yi Tian asked, "He's obviously the most powerful in this world. In such a dangerous situation, senior Scarletbeard's strength as a tenth level Daemonic Exalt is exactly what is needed to turn the situation around."
Xuan Jizi's face changed slightly when he heard that. A sliver of gloominess flashed through his eyes, "Brother Yi, you've been fortunate enough to see master's mirror image. We disciples of the Nine Immortal Mountain haven't seen it in many years. Master has passed down Fu Zhao. This time, the disciples of the Nine Immortal Mountain will cooperate with the Daemonic Exalts of the various clans to deal with this matter. "
"Since senior Scarletbeard isn't suitable to deal with this matter personally, then let us do it," said Ceng Shun, "I think senior Huo has his reasons for personally handling this matter this time."
Yi Tian was shocked. The senior Huo that Ceng Shun mentioned was most likely Ancestral Master Wu Ye's Soul Pet, Fire Chain. He didn't expect Yan Peigong's matter to actually alarm him. Yi Tian could feel that Yi Shun, who was in the Beast Pouch at his waist, had a slight reaction. However, he quickly returned to his original state and fell into a deep sleep in the Beast Pouch.
Xuan Jizi hurriedly added, "Brother Yi, please wait here for a moment. Today, we still have to wait for senior Fire Chain to arrive. Right now, he should still be settling some trifling matters in the Fire Wyrm Clan. "
Just as he was speaking, a red streak of light rapidly flew over from the horizon. Yi Tian was stunned, and his expression changed slightly. The speed of this streak of light wasn't any slower than his full-powered escape technique, or rather, it was comparable. If he didn't use a secret escape technique, it would be very difficult for him to surpass the other party in terms of speed.
Then, a dragon's roar came from the sky. The streak of light streaked across the horizon and arrived in the blink of an eye. After landing, it transformed into a human form. It was actually an old man in his fifties. His skin was slightly red, and fire spiritual energy surrounded his body without any intention of restraining it. Judging from the spiritual energy fluctuations around Fire Chain, his cultivation was at the peak of the intermediate stage of level nine, and it seemed like he was about to break through to the late stage.
Seeing this, Xuan Jizi hurriedly walked forward and cupped his hands in greeting, "Greetings, senior Huo Chain."
"Greetings, senior Huo." Although Ceng Shun was one of the two Li Fire Elders, he was still a junior in front of Huo Chain. At this moment, he didn't dare to be arrogant and respectfully walked forward to greet him.
As for Yi Tian, after looking at him for a bit, he discovered that the true flames around Fire Chain were actually the Li Fire Palace's Wu Ming Flame. He didn't expect that Fire Chain had also cultivated the Li Fire Nine Transformations to the intermediate stage of the seventh stage. It seemed that he was definitely above Ceng Shun.
At this moment, Yi Tian discovered that the Li Fire in his Niwan Palace seemed to be flickering erratically. It seemed that it was affected by a technique of the same origin. At the same time, the seal on Yuanying's forehead finally changed. Purple flames directly fell and replaced the green Li Fire around Yuanying.
As the purple Li Fire Lightning Fire flourished, it suppressed the originally restless Li Fire. In an instant, Yi Tian felt cold sweat dripping down his back. However, he acted as if nothing had happened and cupped his hands in greeting like Xuan Jizi, "Greetings, senior Huo."
Fire Chain's gaze swept past the three of them and finally stopped on Yi Tian. He didn't say anything for a long time, but his eyes were filled with shock. In the end, his gaze lingered on the beast pouch at his waist for a while before he withdrew his divine sense. He then turned around and greeted the three of them in turn.
Xuan Jizi took the opportunity to introduce Yi Tian's identity, but Fire Chain's eyes were filled with even more suspicion. However, this was the first time they met, so he couldn't directly ask about it. Otherwise, it would seem too strange.
However, when the two from the Li Fire Palace heard that Yi Tian was also one of the people involved in the meeting with Yan Peigong, they revealed a look of understanding. Afterwards, the four of them discussed for a moment before flying towards the Beast King's Cave.
