Chapter 297: Flame Ascendant
Chapter 297: Flame Ascendant
"The Zheng family was completely annihilated, and on that day, a purple flame soared into the sky."
"The Radiant Light Cave Master has already taken control of the entire mountain range. In total, thirty-eight clans, big and small, in the vicinity are forbidden from taking even half a step outside."
"I had a premonition, and those who fled quickly... You have no idea what I saw in the Zheng family..."
A cultivator with a gloomy expression whispered on the street, and as he spoke, he glanced around and then took out a telepathic artifact.
Shen Yi passed by the group without changing his expression.
Of course, he knew what was left of the Zheng family.
It was nothing more than a group of wooden men, their souls and Dao infants devoured by the Ageless Tree.
As the cultivator reluctantly conveyed the news, he saw the stunned expressions on the faces of the others. He put away his artifact, shook his head, and said, "But I've never heard of any sect producing a Flame Ascendant with such power. It's likely that they've reached the Divine Transformation Realm."
Upon hearing this, Xu Wanwen's expression became tense.
Although she had anticipated this news, hearing it firsthand still made her heart sink a little.
The distinctive purple-golden flame was too obvious to be mistaken.
Thinking of this, she subconsciously slowed her steps and continued to listen to the conversations around her.
"It seems like the Radiant Light Cave is about to make a big move."
"Hey, not necessarily."
The cultivator who had been scared before suddenly laughed again, "Let me tell you, they not only didn't make a big deal out of it, but they even deliberately suppressed the news. It's possible they've provoked some other powerful force, or they're in the wrong."
"How wrong do they have to be to swallow this humiliation?"
The others couldn't help but click their tongues as they recalled the news they had just heard. Could it be that a prestigious immortal sect was actually feeding their cultivators to demons?
They couldn't continue this conversation any further.
"A bunch of big mouths..."
Xu Wanwen quickened her steps and caught up, noticing that Shen Yi seemed completely unbothered.
Let these people keep shouting.
Within a month, the news of Flame Ascendant massacring the entire Zheng family would spread far and wide.
"Why have these people gathered here?"
Shen Yi interrupted Xu Wanwen before she could lean in to whisper.
He wasn't deaf; let them chat.
Who was this Flame Ascendant? Now, he was the Ageless Tree Ascendant, exuding a pure and gentle aura.
"They're probably just bored."
Xu Wanwen was easily sidetracked, and she glanced to the side, whispering, "Once you reach a certain level, diligent cultivation only wastes your lifespan. Resources are the most important thing."
"But heavenly materials and treasures are mostly owned, and the risk of fighting for them is too great. One wrong move could lead to the dissipation of your cultivation and the destruction of your body."
"So, everyone is waiting for an opportunity."
Shen Yi slightly turned his head, "Whose opportunity are they waiting for?"
Xu Wanwen counted on her fingers, "It should be Da Qian, right?"
Before she could finish, a commotion broke out on the street again.
Several figures emerged from the entrance of a tavern, their auras overwhelmingly powerful, each of them High Realm Profound Yuan Masters.
They were silent and their gazes were chilling.
As soon as they stepped onto the street, they stood out like wolves among sheep.
Their clothing varied, but their demeanor was similar, indicating they were from the same place.
"They're all from Da Qian."
A Qing, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly spoke up.
"How do you know?" Xu Wanwen looked at him curiously.
"The formation array on their boots is ours," A Qing whispered.
Upon hearing this, Xu Wanwen let out a muffled hum, "What a waste of good intentions, feeding a dog. Our family did so much for them, but when we were in trouble..."
A Qing lowered his head and remained silent.
Radiant Light Cave and Da Qian were allies, and it was clear which was more important. Even if the Xu family were to wholeheartedly serve Da Qian, they still wouldn't be as important as the allies of the other party.
However, the Temple of Martial Arts hadn't said a word from start to finish, which made the elders of the clan feel rather disheartened.
"..."
Shen Yi was inexplicably caught off guard.
He noticed that all the cultivators on the street, those with even a bit of strength, had gone from a lazy state to being tense.
"It's time to prepare for some unexpected gains."
Xu Wanwen adjusted her emotions.
In reality, the entire Monster Suppressing City served the Immortal Sect and Da Qian, and only these three had the courage and qualifications to enter the Thousand Demons Cave.
But soon, she became a bit puzzled, "Why haven't I seen any Divine Transformation Golden Bodies? According to reason, Da Qian should have at least one Golden Body leading the way each time they enter the Thousand Demons Cave."
The next moment, Xu Wanwen's entire face went numb.
Flames swept across the horizon, and the scorching heat made the entire Monster Suppressing City hazy.
A figure slowly descended.
He had empty hands and wore a snowy white outfit. He walked in front of the group of Da Qian cultivators and said indifferently, "Radiant Light Cave is occupied with other matters, so I've come to handle this matter on my master's orders."
Several Da Qian cultivators, their faces rarely showing a hint of relaxation, replied, "Thank you, Senior Tang."
A Qing flipped through her small booklet and, excited, grabbed Shen Yi's sleeve, "It's Tang Yuan!"
"..."
Shen Yi helplessly lowered his gaze.
"He's the most famous Heaven's Talent under Clearwind True Monarch of Wutong Mountain. Born in a small country, he grew up under the guidance of Yin Soul Cultivators. In the end, he caught the attention of Clearwind True Monarch with his Profound Yuan Path and entered the Soul Transformation Realm at just 1,900 years old."
A Qing quickly sketched the man's face in her small booklet, "Elder Brother Shen, you know those places that primarily cultivate Yin Soul, right? They basically don't have Profound Yuan Techniques or sufficient resources, and he forcefully made his way up all by himself."
"Tsk."
Xu Wanwen bumped Shen Yi with her shoulder, "What's so great about that? I'm only 600 years old. How about you?"
"About the same."
Shen Yi silently calculated, realizing he had been in this world for just one year and four months.
"Seems like it."
A Qing was startled, then put away her booklet.
There were two people by her side who were no less impressive than Tang Yuan.
"How many more Spirit Fruits do you need?"
Tang Yuan didn't pay attention to others and directly asked the people in front of him, standing on the street.
"We're still missing sixteen Longevity Fruits."
The oldest-looking Da Qian cultivator among them responded with a bow.
"Has Radiant Light Cave found a suitable Immortal Cave for you?" Tang Yuan continued to ask concisely.
"We found one... But the Blood Transformation Demon Emperor fell recently, and now the Thousand Demons Cave is filled with crises." The Da Qian cultivator sighed.
"No worries, just do your best."
Tang Yuan nodded slightly and took the jade slip handed to him, "I'm not from Wutong Mountain, but I follow Clearwind True Monarch's teachings. If you trust me, Senior Tang, then from now on, everything will be arranged by me."
"Thank you, Senior, for your understanding!"
Several Da Qian cultivators bowed in succession.
Xu Wanwen's face showed surprise, "When did Da Qian become so humble?"
In the books she had read since she was young...
The Temple of Martial Arts was a major power with over ten Divine Transformation Cultivators, dozens of High Realm Martial Immortals, and many Profound Yuan Masters.
Now, they were actually showing such great respect to a disciple by name of Clearwind True Monarch?
