Beneath the sinkhole!
Golden flames filled the entire underground river. As the flames spread, the temperature in the underground river rose gradually. The water in the entire underground river was boiling as if there were ferocious beasts fighting in it.
Eventually, the water in the underground river evaporated completely, revealing the bumpy river bottom. White mist hovered in mid-air. It was red like fire as if it was a burning cloud. Even the space seemed to be slightly distorted.
Endless flames gathered in one place from top to bottom as if they were worshipping. If not for the thickness of the surrounding stone walls and the incomparably sturdy soil layer that had been deposited over the years, the entire sinkhole would probably have collapsed.
Meanwhile, there was an empty space in the middle of the sea of flames. There were no flames at all as if the flames around had a spirit of their own.
A skinny silhouette sat in the middle of the empty space with his legs crossed. He was naked like an old monk in meditation. If one were to look closer, one would notice that golden flames were seeping out of every pore on his skin.
The young man did not care about that at all. He continued sitting with his legs crossed as if he was lonely. His eyes were closed, and the endless flames around him were getting more and more intense as he breathed through his nose and mouth.
Nobody knew how long had passed.
The young man let out a muffled growl. His tightly shut eyes finally showed signs of loosening at that moment. Subsequently, he opened them slowly.
"I've finally built my foundation!"
Ye Chen got up and stretched his stiff bones. He patted the dust on his body and revealed a smile on his face. "Divine Dao Base. Great. The Golden Fire Crystal didn't disappoint me!"
The sea of qi in his dantian was completely liquefied. It was the sign of spiritual power being liquefied. It was also the sign of Foundation Building. The liquid should not be underestimated. Even a drop of it contained energy that a Spirit Assembly powerhouse could not compare to.
"I've integrated the Golden Fire Crystal now, but there's still some heavenly fire energy left in it. It'll be a waste if I let it go. I can use it to refine a divine power!"
Ye Chen thought to himself as he rubbed his chin.
The so-called divine power was something that broke a regular person's understanding. For example, ancient martial artists could tear tigers apart leopards and lift 500-kilogram cauldrons. However, they could not lift themselves up by grabbing their own heads. Naturally, that was impossible in the world of science.
Divine abilities were meant to defy science!
My body is already invincible in the current world. With the current conditions, there is no room for improvement. But I can consider refining a fire-elemental technique, such as the Golden Eyes of the Three-eyed Gods in the deity realm!
Ye Chen said thoughtfully.
When he was in the Immortal Dimension, he ruled over a hundred races, and the members of the Three-eyed Race possessed the Innate Divine Ability of Scorching Golden Eyes. They relied on a pair of golden eyes to illuminate the world, and nothing could escape the gaze of the golden eyes. It was even to the extent that they could emit a Scorching Golden Light that restrained all evil.
"This is it!"
"Although I can't restore the real Golden Pupils of Fury, I can use the power of the Heavenly Fire to imitate a counterfeit version of the Golden Pupils of Fury. This supernatural power can absorb any kind of fire. When it is mastered, it can burn the sky with a single glance!"
After making up his mind, Ye Chen realized that his clothes had long been burned by the heavenly fire. He could not help but walk to the side and take off the old man's robe and put it on himself. Then, he sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate the Golden Pupil Flame!
…
Shennongjia was dead silent!
Zhang Xuanqing of Dragon Tiger Mountain was shocked.
People only knew that Shen Tiannan doted on his only son, Shen Xingye. However, they had no idea that Shen Tiannan doted on Shen Xingye to the extent that he indulged him.
The reason was that Shen Tiannan was under the tutelage of the Southern Sect's leader, An Daoyuan, at that time. Shen Tiannan had displayed a monstrous talent in cultivation, and An Daoyuan favored him a lot.
An Daoyuan was the master of Hong Kong's spell world back then. Although his spells were unparalleled, he was lustful. He had many women, and those women were 40 to 50 years younger than him. However, Shen Tiannan had an affair with his master's woman and impregnated her only son. After the scandal was exposed, the pregnant woman was punished, but she refused to say anything about Shen Tiannan.
Shen Tiannan rushed back and took the initiative to admit it. He was the enemy of the entire Southern Sect in Hong Kong, especially An Daoyuan. However, the result shocked everyone. Shen Tiannan's disciple had surpassed his master and killed his master.
As An Daoyuan died, the entire Southern Sect in Hong Kong was purged. Meanwhile, the woman who had slept with Shen Tiannan passed away because she could not bear the torture. Shen Xingye was pregnant with her only son back then.
Shen Tiannan felt guilty that his lover would rather die than confess to him. Naturally, the guilt was transferred to Shen Xingye.
Naturally, it was a secret. Most people in the world who knew about it were dead. Zhang Xuanqing was one of the people who knew about it. That was the reason why he was shocked when he heard that Shen Xingye was dead.
Shen Tiannan could betray his master and kill his ancestors for a woman. Was there anything that he would not do for his son now?
Everyone present could not help but perk up after hearing Zhang Xuanqing's question. They secretly pricked up their ears, including Yu Lian and the rest.
Shen Tiannan chuckled in a creepy manner. "The person who killed my son is the No. 1 in China's ancient martial arts world, Mad Southern Ye!"
The place fell into dead silence as soon as he said that.
The expressions on everyone's faces stiffened in unison. Their eyes widened, and a tempestuous storm surged in their hearts.
Before this, they had wondered who would dare to kill Shen Xingye despite being condemned by the world. They had thought of many people, but they had never thought that it would be Mad Southern Ye.
One must know that Mad Southern Ye was the No. 1 in China's ancient martial arts world. Why would an ancient martial artist from this mainland come to Hong Kong to kill Shen Xingye?
"What? It's him! "
Yuan Qitai and the rest who were in the crowd could not help but be shocked. Yu Lian could not help but exclaim, "I-Is it Mad Southern Ye who killed his son?"
She was secretly admiring Mad Southern Ye earlier, but Mad Southern Ye became a murderer in the next second. She had no idea what to say now.
Yuan Qitai sighed softly. "Things are getting out of hand now!"
"Master Yuan, is Mad Southern Ye Shen Tiannan's match?" Yu Lian asked by instinct. She was more concerned about that. Perhaps it was because of the first impression, but deep down, she was more inclined to Mad Southern Ye.
As soon as that was said.
Yu Lei, Deng Chan, and the rest could not help but look at Yuan Qitai.
Yuan Qitai shook his head lightly. "Theoretically, Mad Southern Ye has a higher chance of winning. However, now that Shen Tiannan has mastered the Verbal Compliance Law, coupled with the pain of losing his son, it's hard to say what will happen if they fight."
In reality, there was something that he did not mention. There was an unwritten rule in the cultivation world whereby a Mystic Spell Master would be more powerful than an ancient martial artist on the same level. This was because a Mystic Spell Master could perform spells and use magic tools.
"Huh? Then, isn't Mad Southern Ye dead? "
Yu Lian's face turned pale, and her heart was in a mess at the moment.
On the heaven altar.
Zhang Xuanqing inhaled sharply and looked at Shen Tiannan in shock. "Brother Shen, are you sure that Mad Southern Ye killed Xingye? This isn't a joke. You have to think twice! "
One was the No. 1 in the ancient martial arts world, while the other was the No. 1 in the spell world in Hong Kong. Hong Kong was the place where spells were the most popular. Both of them were sworn enemies. No matter who lived or died, it would stir up a huge commotion in China.
He spoke again as he spoke to this point, "Brother Shen, I'm not trying to discourage you, but Mad Southern Ye's power isn't as simple as you think. This person has killed a couple of half-step martial venerables. His ability should be on the level of a martial venerable. You …"
"Oh? Really? "
"What if I, Lei, are included?"
A calm voice came from far away just when he was done speaking.
