After exiting the transport passenger, Yi Tian had been strolling around Shan Jian City. Ever since he came here, he had yet to experience the style and customs of this place.
After all, it was a city under the jurisdiction of a large sect. Compared to the remote Qing Feng City, the facilities here were much better. Along the way, he saw no less than hundreds of shops and businesses. Furthermore, there were businesses of the other two sects mixed in.
There were also many families and loose cultivators that relied on the Heavenly Demon Sect. Many of them used the Heavenly Demon Sect's banner to open shops. However, the banner was a little different from the Heavenly Demon Sect's orthodox black and white words. The banner had the two words' Heavenly Demon 'written on it.
At this time, Yi Tian was in a state of absent-mindedness. Previously, he had chatted happily with Yin Jie in the 'Transport Passenger'. At the same time, he had also learned a lot about the Western Wasteland. Unknowingly, the two of them chatted until the next day.
Thinking that he still had to meet Huo Chi Lian today, Yi Tian could only find an excuse to bid farewell to Yin Jie early.
However, before leaving, Yin Jie had left a message. Previously, he had sent a message to the higher ups of the Immortal Sword Sect to completely resolve the matter of Wei Xuan Bai. Now, he had officially invited Yi Tian to return to the Heaven Sword City. If he could refine a high grade spirit tool in the next few years and fight for the top three of the Artifact Board, that would be the best.
The sect was willing to fully support him. At the very least, they would provide the required treasures. Of course, if he succeeded, the sect would be willing to pay a high price to exchange for the Holy Spring Water with Yi Tian.
However, this was only Yin Jie's side of the story. At most, the sect would provide some support in terms of materials. As for the other support, it should be his verbal promise that did not count.
Walking on the street, Yi Tian was restless. This opportunity was placed in front of him, and he was free to take it. However, this was very different from his original plan. Originally, he wanted to rely on a large sect to cultivate in the Western Wasteland. As for standing out, he wanted to do as little as possible.
Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished. If not for the mistake during the Core Formation, he would not have been controlled by others. Also, the matter of the 'Sunflower True Fire' had to be resolved in the Western Wasteland. Otherwise, it would be a pity.
However, there was still one more thing that puzzled him. During the auction, Huo Chilian had actually said that he had made a mistake in the grade of the spirit tool he had refined. This matter had to be thoroughly investigated. However, after thinking about it for a while, as a refiner, appraising spirit tools was a basic skill. There were bound to be some reasons why he had made frequent mistakes.
Unknowingly, Yi Tian found that he had already returned to the door of the 'guest' room. As soon as he entered, the shopkeeper came up to him and said, "Esteemed guest, I'm sorry for the delay. Master Huo is already waiting for you in the heavenly room upstairs. Please follow me."
Yi Tian was also stunned for a moment. He hadn't expected that Crimson Flame would keep such a close watch on him. However, this was also good. He could learn more about the Holy Spring of the Rain Shrine from Crimson Flame. He was probably determined to get into the top three of the Earth Roll. He casually said, "Lead the way," and walked up.
Although Yi Tian had stayed in the Heavenly Room for so long, he had never been to the Heavenly Room before. The main reason was because he did not want to be too ostentatious. However, once Crimson Flame arrived, he could no longer keep a low profile. Under the guidance of the shopkeeper, Yi Tian soon arrived at the third floor. He stopped in front of a main hall in the deepest part of the corridor.
The shopkeeper respectfully knocked on the door. Immediately, Crimson Flame's voice came from inside, "Senior Brother Yi, you've arrived. Please come in. This little brother has been waiting for you for a long time."
The shopkeeper gently pushed open the door, a look of worship in his eyes. Yi Tian could only helplessly shake his head and walk in.
After entering the room, Yi Tian casually closed the door. He turned around and looked around. The room was not big, but it was in a good position. He could casually push open a window and look down. He could see the panoramic view of the entire 'guest' room.
There was a square table in the middle of the room. There were four chairs around it. Crimson Flame, who was sitting on one side, saw Yi Tian arrive. He stood up and gestured for him to sit opposite him.
It seemed that Crimson Flame had a lot to say. Yi Tian also had a lot to say. After opening a soundproof barrier, he casually walked forward and sat down.
After the two sat down, Crimson Flame said, "Senior Brother Yi, you've made this little brother wait for a long time. This time, I won't disturb you. We can chat to our heart's content."
Yi Tian replied indifferently, "You were lucky last time. I had to go through a lot of trouble to finally resolve the matter."
"That was also because Senior Brother Yi is strong. However, according to my estimates, Senior Brother Yi should be able to easily counterattack, right?" Saying that, Crimson Flame looked over with a playful expression.
Yi Tian felt a little nervous. Could it be that Crimson Flame could see through his strength? That should not be the case. However, his face did not reveal any flaws as he said, "How do you know that I can easily counterattack? Furthermore, you keep calling me Senior Brother. Is there a misunderstanding? "
When Crimson Flame heard this, he laughed involuntarily and said, "It's this little brother's fault. I didn't make it clear to Senior Brother. My 'Heaven and Earth Imperial Fire Sect' is a branch of the 'Li Fire Sect'. The cultivation techniques we cultivate are of the same origin. Unfortunately, they are incomplete. However, it is still very easy to detect fellow disciples."
This time, Yi Tian understood something. He lightly said, "Then why aren't you in the sect? Why did you end up in the Western Wilderness?"
Crimson Flame closed his eyes and looked up for a moment. Then, he sighed and said, "Senior Brother Yi, do you know that the 'Li Fire Sect' of the Central State is divided into three branches? They are the main branch, the 'Heaven and Earth Imperial Fire Sect' and the 'Great Sun Glorious Sun Sect'. The founder of my 'Heaven and Earth Imperial Fire Sect' was originally the first seat of the 'Li Fire Sect's' Artifact Pavilion. Back then, he was angry at the way fellow disciples competed with each other. Therefore, he came out to establish his own sect. "
"Oh, that's interesting. Then what about the 'Great Sun Glorious Sun Sect'?" This was the first time Yi Tian had heard of the secret of the Central State's' Li Fire Sect '. It seemed to match what had happened in Mount Yi's cave when he first started cultivating.
"The 'Great Sun Glorious Sun Sect' is a branch of the Alchemy School's first seat. Unfortunately, the Alchemy School and the Artifact School are only auxiliary branches. The ones with truly profound cultivation are still the cultivators of the main branch." Crimson Flame answered with a lonely expression.
"Then what's the situation of the Central State's' Li Fire Sect '?" Yi Tian continued asking.
Who knew that Crimson Flame would reply with a naughty smile, "Senior Brother Yi, aren't you from the Central State's' Li Fire Sect '? Why are you asking me about your own sect?"
Suddenly realizing that he had almost exposed himself, Yi Tian could only laugh and reply, "I haven't returned to the Central State for many years. Naturally, I don't know."
Crimson Flame immediately asked with a serious expression, "Senior Brother, are you really from the main branch? It doesn't look like it. "
Not knowing where he had exposed himself, Yi Tian pretended to be calm and said, "It is indeed so. I have the sect's direct lineage cultivation technique as proof." After saying that, he stretched out his left index finger and flicked it. Instantly, a golden flame appeared.
Crimson Flame opened his eyes wide and carefully observed for a while. Then, he stood up with a smile and said, "Junior Brother Crimson Flame greets Senior Brother of the Sect Master's direct lineage."
This sentence stunned Yi Tian. His words contained too many layers of meaning. He probably couldn't figure it out and would have to ask him for advice. After putting away the flame, he turned to face Crimson Flame and said, "What do you mean by the Sect Master's direct lineage? Is our Central State's' Li Fire Sect 'not a direct lineage? "
"Senior Brother, please don't be impatient. Please listen to your Junior Brother slowly." Following that, Crimson Flame cleared his throat and gave a simple description of the Central State's situation as if he was telling a story.
The Central State's' Li Fire Sect 'had always been suppressing the' Great Sun Glorious Sect 'and the' Universe Imperial Fire Sect 'in order to absorb them back into the main branch. As for Crimson Flame, as a direct disciple of the 'Universe Imperial Fire Sect', he had taken the opportunity when his sect was being annexed by the Sect Master to take away the Artifact Sect's manuals. After that, he ended up in the Western Wilderness.
As for the 'Great Sun Glorious Sect', it had been annexed by the main branch a hundred years ago. The methods used were extremely brutal and bloody. It could be said to be a violent merger. As for whether there were any sect disciples who had escaped, it was unknown.
After hearing Crimson Flame's words, Yi Tian finally knew what was wrong. As a disciple of the Central State's' Li Fire Sect ', if he saw Crimson Flame, he would have immediately taken action to capture him, unlike himself.
However, Yi Tian still had a question, "How do you know I'm from the Sect Master's direct lineage?" The moment he said that, he realized he had said something wrong.
Seeing Yi Tian's tacit agreement, Crimson Flame calmed himself down and said with a smile, "If I'm not wrong, Senior Brother Yi should be from Eastern Ao, right?"
After receiving Yi Tian's confirmation, Crimson Flame continued, "Back when the 'Universe Imperial Fire Sect' was destroyed, the Ancestral Master revealed the sect's secrets to me. The present Central State's' Li Fire Sect 'is a branch sect. However, back then, as I was the Eldest Senior Brother of the sect, I occupied the blessed land, while the direct lineage was chased to Eastern Ao."
"Since your Ancestral Master knows about this, why did he arrange for you to come to the Western Wilderness? Wouldn't it be better to go to Eastern Ao directly?"
"Senior Brother Yi, don't tell me you don't know about your own matters?" Crimson Flame said with understanding.
Having been exposed, Yi Tian sighed and said, "Actually, after the Li Fire Sect's main lineage moved to the east, some unforeseen events happened. Originally, it was renamed the Profound Yang Sect, but a thousand years ago, after the war with the Bright King Road, the Profound Yang Sect was split into the Metal Sword Sect, the Profound Spirit Sect, and the Chiyang School."
Crimson Flame answered, "I know all of this. Our Ancestral Master told me about the Eastern Ao's strength long ago. Senior Brother Yi should be from the Profound Yang Sect's main lineage, right? From the looks of it, you should be a direct lineage disciple of the Profound Yang Sect or the Li Fire Sect."
"Since you know, then you should know that I can't help you too much. There are still a lot of disagreements in my own sect. At most, I can bring you back to the Chiyang School to settle down."
Crimson Flame laughed heartily and said, "Senior Brother Yi, there's no need to belittle yourself. Back when I came to the Western Wilderness, I was only at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment realm, and I was alone. However, my Master went to the successor of the Heavenly Fortune Sect to divine the sect's fate. He said that the Li Fire Sect would prosper in the future, and that this temporary hibernation was for the sake of its future glory. Furthermore, I was ordered to come to the Western Wilderness to find the new Li Fire Sect Master in a time of crisis. It should be you, Senior Brother. "
The Heavenly Fortune Sect again. Yi Tian thought, 'Why is my whereabouts always predicted by the Heavenly Fortune Sect? This matter can be big or small. I really have to pay them a visit one day.'
After calming himself down, Yi Tian said, "I still have some unfinished business in the Western Wilderness. When the time comes, you can come back to the Eastern Ao with me."
"That's great. After all, I'm tired of staying in the Western Wilderness. When the time comes, I can go and experience the glory of the direct lineage."
With a wry smile, Yi Tian said, "Don't get your hopes too high. Chiyang School's internal strife has just been quelled, and there are still the surrounding sects eyeing it covetously. Life won't be easy."
