Buzz … When the last rune entered his mind, Ye Fan retracted the two red lights in his eyes.
He flew out of the crater using his movement technique. Then, he activated his spiritual power and extended his right hand. He bent his fingers into a claw and sucked in the air toward the mountain-like sand pile several hundred feet away.
Whoosh … The sand pillar rose again and flew into the crater!
In the blink of an eye, the huge crater that was several hundred feet deep was quickly filled up by the sand.
After doing all this, Ye Fan knelt on the sand and kowtowed three times toward the Divine Cauldron.
Buzz … Countless golden lights gushed out from the sand. The golden light barrier that had been shattered by Ye Fan was restored to its original state. The golden light dazzled!
The barrier of the Divine Cauldron was restored automatically!
After three flashes, the golden light barrier slowly disappeared. Just like before Ye Fan arrived, it was incomparably transparent, flat, and quiet.
Ye Fan stood up and turned around to leave.
"Hiss …" Just as Ye Fan was about to use his movement technique, a low hissing sound came from the desert several hundred miles away.
Ye Fan smiled and turned around.
This voice was all too familiar to him.
It was the Fire Snake!
Whoosh! His figure flashed and disappeared in an instant. Then, he reappeared several hundred miles away in the sky.
Above the golden sea of sand, a gigantic, fiery-red fire snake was rapidly swimming towards the direction of the sand where the divine cauldron was buried!
The earth-shattering sound and the three shockwaves made the Fire Snake, who was absorbing the Sun Essence in the desert, become alert.
It was worried that the Golden Bull would be taken away. Therefore, it didn't have time to absorb the Sun Essence and quickly rushed toward the Golden Bull.
Before Ye Fan came back, it had to protect the Golden Bull. It couldn't let anyone get close to it.
In the sky, Ye Fan looked down at the Fire Snake in the sea of sand and said with a smile, "Brother Snake, I trust you have been well since we last met."
It was Ye Fan!
When Fire Snake heard this sound, it immediately stopped and raised its huge head to look at the sky!
High up in the sky, the silver-haired, black-robed Ye Fan slowly descended with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.
It was indeed Ye Fan!
Fire Snake was delighted!
"Hiss … Hiss …" It let out an excited hiss as it raised its giant dragon-like body and soared into the sky to welcome Ye Fan!
In the blink of an eye, the man and the snake met in midair.
"Old friend, we meet again," Ye Fan, who was hovering in the air, said with a smile as he reached out to stroke Fire Snake's large head.
"Hiss … hiss …" The Fire Snake rubbed its scalding and smooth head against Ye Fan's palm intimately, hissing incessantly.
"I came here to retrieve something from the golden bull. I didn't intend to disturb your cultivation, but I didn't expect to alarm you," Ye Fan said to Fire Snake with a smile.
"Hiss … Hiss …" The Fire Snake couldn't speak, so it could only hiss.
Although Ye Fan didn't understand snake language, he could still tell that Fire Snake was very happy that he had come.
"Cultivate well here and protect the people of Fire Dragon Town," Ye Fan said as he stroked Fire Snake. "Wait for me to gather all nine divine bulls, then I'll come here immediately to rescue your wife and reunite you two."
Although he was now the Demon Monarch of the Demon Realm and had the ability to reconstruct his body, Xian 'er's soul was still in the hands of True Lord Fire Dragon. At that time, True Lord Fire Dragon had personally told him that the day he succeeded would be the day Xian' er was reborn.
The day he succeeded referred to the day he gathered all nine cauldrons and comprehended the Divine Cauldron Secret Technique, not the day he obtained the power of the Heavenly Demon.
Immortals always spoke with hidden meanings. This was something he was very clear about.
After hearing Ye Fan's words, Fire Snake nodded.
"I still have to find the remaining eight divine bulls, so we'll part ways here today. The next time we meet again will be the day I succeed. Brother Snake, wait for me," Ye Fan said solemnly as he looked into Fire Snake's huge eyes.
"Hiss …" Fire Snake replied to Ye Fan, reluctant to part.
Ye Fan smiled, patted Fire Snake's forehead, and disappeared in an instant.
Fifty kilometers away, Akatsuki was standing on a block of ice with Baihu in her arms. She was constantly looking in the direction of the voice.
Whoosh! Ye Fan's figure suddenly appeared beside her out of thin air.
Seeing Ye Fan return, Akatsuki smiled brightly.
She was already accustomed to Ye Fan's astonishing movement techniques.
"Is everything done?" She asked when she saw Ye Fan's smile.
Ye Fan nodded with a smile.
"That's great!" Akatsuki was genuinely happy for Ye Fan.
However, she also felt a hint of disappointment.
After the Nine Cauldrons were gathered, Ye Fan's wife, Fujiwara No Chiko, would wake up. At that time, they would be reunited as husband and wife. She could only be envious of them.
When she thought of the moment when she would have to leave Ye Fan in the future, Akatsuki felt very uncomfortable.
"What are you thinking about?" Ye Fan asked when he saw the disappointment on Akatsuki's face.
"No … nothing." Akatsuki came to her senses and said, "I'm thinking that it's still early, so where are we going next?"
Yue Hongji began to use lies to cover it up.
"It's still early." Ye Fan smiled. "How about this, I'll take you to a place. We'll rest there first, and then we'll leave for Sishui in the evening."
"Where?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan.
"My cave residence, Feng Ming Mountain, Lingyun Cave." Ye Fan looked at Akatsuki and said with a smile.
He had already guessed Akatsuki's thoughts.
How could Akatsuki's disappointed expression escape his eyes?
Ye Fan could not bear to see this woman who had saved him with her own body and was deeply in love with him.
Since it was still early, he decided to take her to his Lingyun Cave to sit.
Taking her to his Lingyun Cave, he could entertain her and express his gratitude. Secondly, he could use his wedding cave residence to remind her that he was a married man.
He could give her anything, except for feelings.
"Your cave residence? Really? "Akatsuki's eyes lit up.
She did not expect that Ye Fan would take the initiative to take her to his cave residence.
"Of course it's real. Do you want to go?" Ye Fan smiled and asked Akatsuki.
"Yes." Akatsuki nodded excitedly, her disappointment swept away.
"Let's go, we'll go now." Ye Fan said. With a flick of his sleeve, clouds appeared beneath his feet, and the two people and one fox flew into the sky.
"Why did you suddenly think of taking me to your cave residence?" Akatsuki was surprised by Ye Fan's sudden invitation.
"You saved my life. I haven't thanked you yet." Ye Fan turned to look at Akatsuki from above the Auspicious Clouds and said with a smile, "Since we have time now, I'll take good care of you."
"Take good care of me?" Akatsuki smiled. "How will you take good care of me?"
"I'll make you a few of my signature dishes, then let you try the Hundred Flowers Intoxication that I brewed in my previous life. Finally, I'll take you around my cave residence." Ye Fan smiled.
"You? You know how to cook? "Akatsuki asked with a smile.
"What? Can't I cook? "Ye Fan asked with a smile.
"I thought you only knew how to kill people." Akatsuki smiled.
"Actually, killing people is the same as cooking. You have to pay attention to technique, experience, and control of the fire." Ye Fan smiled and said to Akatsuki, "Cooking is about color, aroma, and killing is about stability, accuracy, and ruthlessness. They say that governing a large country is like cooking a small fish. In my opinion, it's the same for killing people. Cooking uses kitchen utensils, killing uses knives and swords. Cooking produces oil, killing people bleeds. When cooking, the ingredients sizzle, and when killing, the other party screams. Let's put it this way, an expert who knows how to kill will definitely become a good cook. "
"If you keep talking like that, I'll lose my appetite." Akatsuki said, "I've heard of many assassins' experiences in killing people, but to compare killing to cooking, this is the first time I've heard of it."
Ye Fan smiled and didn't say anything else.
Although Yue Hongji had a smile on her face, she felt a chill in her heart.
Ever since Ye Fan became a demon, the murderous aura on his body had increased by dozens of times. If she hadn't heard those words with her own ears, she wouldn't have believed that they came from Ye Fan's mouth.
The Auspicious Clouds moved as fast as lightning, and the mountains, rivers, and cities below flowed past their feet like water.
An hour later, the two of them crossed thousands of miles and arrived at the boundary of Feng Ming Mountain.
"The mountain in front of us is Feng Ming Mountain." Ye Fan said to Akatsuki.
"Mountain? What mountain? " Akatsuki looked at the empty plains in front of her with a puzzled expression. She turned to look at Ye Fan and asked, "Why don't I see it?"
Ye Fan was stunned at first, then shook his head and smiled.
Feng Ming Mountain had an invisible barrier set up by Brother Kim. Those who hadn't reached the highest level of cultivation couldn't even see it, let alone enter.
Akatsuki was indeed a Japanese expert, but compared to a barrier set up by a top expert like Brother Kim, it was like heaven and earth.
Ye Fan stretched out his palm and gently waved it in front of Akatsuki. A gentle green light flashed past.
After the green light disappeared, Akatsuki's beautiful eyes widened as she exclaimed in a low voice!
A few miles away, a huge green mountain peak appeared out of thin air!
The entire mountain peak was carved into a mountain peak with uncanny craftsmanship. It rose from the ground and towered into the clouds, connecting heaven and earth!
Looking at the huge green mountain peak in front of her, Akatsuki was dumbfounded. Her mouth opened into an O shape.
What!
Ever since she was young, the biggest mountain she had seen was only Mount Fuji. She had never seen such a strange mountain peak before!
Putting aside the mountain peak for the time being, what really made her feel incredulous was the invisible barrier on the mountain peak!
In terms of cultivation, Akatsuki could be considered a top-notch expert in Japan. Otherwise, Matsumoto Takeyoshi wouldn't have invited her to help. However, a barrier expert like her actually didn't notice the huge barrier in front of her!
What kind of expert could set up such a domineering barrier? Akatsuki's expression changed.
Ye Fan? Impossible.
Ye Fan's spiritual energy was indeed powerful. If he used it to a certain extent, he could completely envelop the mountain peak with his spiritual energy. However, his spiritual energy could only play a protective role. It couldn't make such a huge mountain disappear completely!
The person who could do this was unimaginably powerful. Even Ye Fan wouldn't be able to fight against him!
Akatsuki thought to herself as the Auspicious Clouds under her feet arrived in front of the mountain peak.
