The Dan Clan was one of the top three powers in the Dark Shadow Realm.
Even though they weren't one of the top powers, no one doubted that they had the backing of a top power. No one dared to challenge their authority.
They occupied a large territory and had many subordinate powers. Most of them were related to alchemy and the subordinate powers were there to obtain more alchemy resources. There were also some business alliances. The Dan Clan's influence was very large.
The Northern Medicine Clan and the Southern Pill Clan lived up to their name.
Yang Wu's group followed Dan Richen to the Dan Clan as guests.
This was a decision that Yang Wu had made after much consideration. Even though this was a very risky move, he felt that it was worth a gamble. At the very least, Old Man Zui gave him a feeling that he had some morals. If the Alchemist Alliance couldn't make the Dan Clan restrain themselves, then the alliance would be a joke.
Yang Wu agreed to come to the Dan Clan because Dan Richen swore that he wouldn't harm them. Secondly, they were still in the Dan Clan's territory. If the other party wanted to use force, they might not be able to handle it. If they chose to compromise, they might be able to get a good result.
Taking a step back, if the Dan Clan dared to harm them, then he would definitely make them pay the price. The divine weapon in his bones gave him this kind of confidence.
Dan Richen didn't have any intentions of harming Yang Wu's group. He only wanted to use his sincerity to convince Dan Zi to return to the Dan Clan. As long as she returned, he would do his best to train her to become the most outstanding alchemist. Perhaps the Dan Clan would have another Saint Alchemist or even a Divine Alchemist.
Yang Wu's group entered the Dan Clan's territory and immediately felt waves of fire Xuan Qi fill the area. The temperature of the volcano wasn't something that an ordinary person could withstand.
Barbarian Bull couldn't help but complain, "What is this place? This old bull's fur is about to fall off from the heat."
"Brother Bull, just bear with it. The Dan Clan focuses on alchemy and cultivates fire Xuan Qi. It's normal for them to like fire Xuan Qi." Yang Wu said from the side.
"Brother, this old bull's mouth is cheap. Don't take it to heart." Barbarian Elephant said from the side.
Barbarian Bull replied, "Right, right. If we can't even withstand this heat, how can we cultivate properly in the future?"
"In the future, let's find a suitable place for us to cultivate." Man Hu said.
"Don't worry about that. There are plenty of good cultivation places in the Transcendent world. There will definitely be a suitable place for you to cultivate." Yang Wu replied.
At this moment, Lu Zhi clicked his tongue in wonder and said, "I sense that this place is filled with formation patterns, as if we're in a world of formations. As long as we activate the formations here, none of us will be able to escape."
Dan Richen glanced at Lu Zhi and said, "How can that force not have one or two great formations to protect it?"
Lu Zhi climbed up the pole and asked Dan Richen, "Patriarch Dan, no matter what, we are your guests. Do you have any array formation scrolls that you don't need that you can give to us?"
Lu Zhi was also very powerful. He was facing the patriarch of a clan and was also a Saint in the Star Pattern Realm. Yet, he still dared to speak like this. His guts were not ordinary.
What kind of person was Dan Richen? He had long seen that Lu Zhi was not ordinary. Not only did he reach the peak of the Heavenly Fish Realm at such a young age, but Lu Zhi also had a unique aura. It was as if there were yin and yang energies intertwining. It might be the legendary Yin Yang Battle Body.
"My clan has a lot of array diagrams and scrolls. I will have someone send some over to little brother later." Dan Richen said politely.
He did not mind forming a good relationship with such a promising young man. Perhaps, he would be able to obtain unexpected benefits in the future.
"Really? Then I have to thank Patriarch Dan. You really are a good person. I will definitely have my lord listen to your instructions." Lu Zhi said excitedly.
Just as he finished speaking, Yang Wu fiercely knocked him on the head. He gritted his teeth and said, "Traitor."
"My lord, how can you be so rough? I was just joking. My loyalty to my lord can be seen by the sun and moon." Lu Zhi resisted.
This fellow's skin was really thick.
Yang Wu and his group came to the Dan Clan's guest hall. Dan Richen first arranged good wine and dishes to entertain Yang Wu and his group. He did not mention anything about Dan Zi returning to the clan.
When arranging their accommodations, Dan Richen's intentions were revealed. The clansmen related to Dan Zi's lineage appeared in front of her.
Even if Yang Wu knew Dan Richen's intentions, he could not stop him. Dan Richen was moving with emotion and reasoning. He was using a common scheme. He did not do anything bad. Could it be that he would not allow him to do so?
Dan Zi was also caught off guard. She did know these people. They were all her uncles, and there were even some grand-uncles. Her grandfather had brought her to see them before. They were all dutiful people, and their status in the clan wasn't high. They were still very sad and pained about Danlong leaving the clan. Danlong's influence in their bloodline wasn't small, and they had once placed high hopes on him.
Yang Wu, Lu Zhi, Su Yanshuai, and the others all returned to their rooms. They gave Dan Zi time to deal with this. She was not young anymore. She could have her own thoughts.
After returning to his room, Yang Wu began to meditate and cultivate.
He was cultivating the Soul Control Heart Sutra. He was also meditating and cultivating various combat skills. At the same time, the Supreme Nine Mysteries Formula was still crazily absorbing the fire Xuan Qi here. When the fire Xuan Qi entered his body, it was automatically filtered by his Dantian. It condensed into pure energy and fell into his Dantian. At this moment, he suddenly felt a trace of strange energy mixed in the Xuan Qi. He looked inside and found that the rejected energy was black. It was like a tiny black worm. It was seeping into his bones and internal organs. Fortunately, it was isolated and purified by the thunder power of the Heavenly Thunder Bone.
"The energy here is strange. Could it be that the Dan Clan did something?" Yang Wu wondered in his heart.
Yang Wu did not say anything. The little bit of energy just now was not fatal. It was also impossible for it to pose any threat to experts like them who were full of vitality. It should not be the Dan Clan's doing, but it could not be ruled out.
Yang Wu continued to absorb the Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth here. A large amount of fire Xuan Qi seeped out from the ground. The black energy was contained in the fire Xuan Qi. If he did not have his Dantian's power to purify it, he would only feel that it was a mottled energy that would not cause any harm to his body.
At this moment, Lan Yao Ji, who was in his heart, was connected to Yang Wu's mind. It said: "Master, this is the fire poison energy."
"What is fire poison? Is it something with too much firepower? "Yang Wu asked.
"That's not what it means. It's that the fire seed has been infused with poison and has become another type of 'poisonous fire'. Any living creature that absorbs too much will die from the poison. I'm afraid that everyone here has been poisoned." Lan Yao Ji said.
"A fire seed with poison. Is that what it means?" Yang Wu asked.
"That's what it means. However, this kind of poison will not directly harm living creatures. Instead, after accumulating enough, it will gradually explode. It is especially obvious to weak living creatures. The stronger the living creatures, the better they will not die immediately. However, the fire poison will hide and affect their lifespan and cultivation." Lan Yao Ji replied.
Yang Wu immediately understood.
The Dan Clan had a huge hidden danger.
"Is there a way to solve it?" Yang Wu asked.
"Find the source of the poison and destroy it." Lan Yao Ji replied. Then, it said: "This poison can corrode the fire seed. Its level is probably not low. Even I can't do anything to it."
"Such a terrifying poison source." Yang Wu exclaimed.
After that, Yang Wu refined more of the poison source's power and sealed it. Perhaps this was the reason why Dan Richen was so anxious to find Dan Zi. The fire seed here was the sacred fire "Peach Pink Flame." Only Dan Zi, who was of the same origin as it, could go deep underground and resonate with the fire seed. That was the innate flame left behind by the Dan Clan's ancestors.
This was something that Dan Richen had mentioned before. However, Yang Wu did not know that it was so serious. It had already affected the foundation of the Dan Clan. Perhaps the Dan Clan had not realized the seriousness of the matter.
After a night, Dan Zi knocked on Yang Wu's door.
Yang Wu let her in. Seeing that she was not in good spirits, he knew that she did not sleep well last night.
"Master, they asked me to stay. What do you think I should do?" Dan Zi asked with a troubled expression. Looking at her worried expression, she seemed very pitiful.
"Go straight to your heart." Yang Wu said in a low voice.
His words were holy, clearing her heart. After Dan Zi quivered, her mind became clear. She couldn't help but reply, "I want to return to the clan. Grandfather will be happy, but I don't want to be bound by the clan."
"As long as you are strong, your clan will only value you and respect you. How can they restrict you?" Yang Wu replied.
"Then, does Master want me to stay?" Dan Zi asked again.
"You already want to stay, don't you?" Yang Wu asked.
Dan Zi lowered her head in embarrassment and replied, "I'm … I'm sorry, Master."
"Your choice is not wrong. There is nothing to be sorry about. However, they chose to give up on you. If you return like this, it might not be a good thing." Yang Wu said.
"Then what should I do?" Dan Zi also had the same concerns. She was very worried.
"Let's see what conditions your clan leader will give. If you return to the Dan Clan, it will save me some trouble." Yang Wu smiled and said.
He had already thought of a plan that would satisfy both sides. He was in a good mood.
Dan Zi misunderstood Yang Wu. She thought to herself, "Could it be that Master really hates me and doesn't want me to stay by his side?"
Before seeing the Dan Sun, Yang Wu first found Old Man Zui. This guy had swindled a lot of old wine from the Dan Clan and was drinking himself into a drunken stupor.
"Yang Wu, come quickly. The Dan Clan's' Nine Immortals Wine 'is really good. Once it goes down my throat, it's as if I've ascended to the Immortal World. It feels really good." Old Man Zui called out to Yang Wu.
"Old Man Zui, the Dan Clan's situation isn't good right?" Yang Wu asked.
Old Man Zui raised his eyebrows and replied, "You noticed the situation so quickly. It seems the Dan Clan's situation is more serious than I thought."
"Such a big clan still hasn't found a solution. It seems this matter is not easy to deal with."
