Green, Black, Purple
He had always wanted to know if the Method Formula that Bi Changchun had comprehended by observing the stars was the same as his. If it was, would he one day be able to enter the Spirit Transformation stage as well? Unfortunately, he never had the chance to verify it.
Ten days later, he had recorded the remaining seven cycles of the Four Directions Star Chart into the jade tablet. All that remained was to spend time comprehending the Method Formula contained within. So far, he hadn't yet delved into the longer-term cycles of the entire starry sky, because they were too complex and time-consuming. He would leave that for when he had the leisure!
Although he was practically imprisoned on the island, he was free to move around. Apart from a few buildings in the center of the island that he was not allowed to enter at will, Bi Changchun did not actually restrict him excessively. Over time, he naturally became quite familiar with the island's environment.
After more than half a month, Yue Qianchou discovered that He Li would fly away from 'Shuntian Island' at a certain time every day, and he didn't know what he was doing.
On that day, when He Li proudly showed off a strangely shaped iron rod to Yue Qianchou, claiming it was a magical Law Treasure he had crafted, Yue Qianchou suddenly realized and said, "You leave the island every day just to craft this Law Treasure."
"That's right, no, it's not for refining this Law Treasure. I'm learning weapon refining, hoping to one day become a revered master weapon refiner like the Ancestor Nanming," He Li explained.
Yue Qianchou stared speechlessly at the iron rod in the man's hand. This unfortunate kid had probably spent too much time in the Demon Ghost Domain and hadn't seen much of the world. He finally managed to forge a treasure, but it turned out so ugly, and he was so smug and shameless. Glancing around at the boundless lake, Yue Qianchou asked in confusion, "Is there any fire around here that can forge treasures? I haven't seen any."
He knew that Demon Race could release demonic fire, but even those at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage could only release it briefly and could never use it for refining weapons. Moreover, he was only at the mid Tribulation stage, so it was even more impossible for him. As for Demon Race at the Spirit Transformation stage, he didn't know.
"You've only been here a few days, and there are already many things you haven't seen in this Demon Ghost Domain." He Li admired the staff in his hand and laughed smugly, "Without the fierce fire for refining treasures, how could Ancestor Nanming have refined spiritual treasures here? Have you ever heard of the Three Flavored True Fire?"
"Three Flavored True Fire?" Yue Qianchou muttered, rolling his eyes. Damn it! He'd heard that Laozi used Three Flavored True Fire to refine Sun Wukong in Journey to the West. Shaking his head, he humbly asked, "I've never heard of it. Please enlighten me, Brother He."
He Li, with an air of knowing he was ignorant, put away the treasure in his hand and actually adopted a tone of imparting knowledge, saying, "The Three Flavored True Fire is said to be a celestial fire used by immortals in the Immortal Realm, formed by the fusion of three kinds of fierce fire. Even ordinary immortals find it difficult to master this Method Formula. Do you know which three kinds of fierce fire it is formed by fusion?"
"I don't know," Yue Qianchou shook his head. He Li smiled and said, "The Three Flavored True Fire is formed by the fusion of three kinds of fierce fire: blue fire, black fire, and purple fire. Do you know what the function of these three kinds of fierce fire is?"
"I don't know." Yue Qianchou shook his head halfway, while He Li began to explain, "Azure Fire, also known as Essence Fire, has an unimaginable temperature, making it the perfect fire for refining treasures. Black Fire, called Netherworld Ghost Fire, can burn people's minds and destroy their Divine Sense. Purple Fire is extraordinary; it is said to be able to melt all things in heaven and earth, and nothing in the mortal world can withstand it. It is said that even immortals in the celestial realm cannot withstand it without a considerable immortal Law Treasure. If someone can fuse these three kinds of intense fire, they can refine the Three Flavored True Fire, which can slay immortals and be invincible. Isn't that amazing?"
"Judging from what Brother He is saying, could it be that you have seen the Three Flavored True Fire?" Yue Qianchou poked his head in front of him and asked suspiciously.
He Li chuckled and said, "How could that be? They are just legends passed down from High Antiquity. Not only have I not seen them, but I believe no one in the entire Cultivation World has seen them either." After saying that, seeing the look of disdain on Yue Qianchou's face, he immediately coughed and added, "Although I have never seen the Three Flavored True Fire, I know the whereabouts of two of them, and I have seen one of them, the Azure Fire."
Yue Qianchou's heart clenched, but he scoffed dismissively, "He Li, you're trying to fool me again. If it's something no one in the Cultivation World has ever seen, how could you possibly have? Your words are contradicting themselves. Do you really think I'm a three-year-old?"
Upon hearing this, He Li became somewhat anxious, his expression as if he had been falsely accused. He took out the broken stick again and tapped it in his hand, his face flushed as he argued, "The Twilight Valley hides the blue, the nine netherworlds hide the black, where does the purple hide? Its trace is elusive. Although others may not know this Mnemonic, it was passed down by the 'Punishment Envoy' who guarded the Demon Ghost Domain throughout the ages. How could I lie to anyone? Besides, the Law Treasure in my hand is made of Azure Fire. Would I deceive you? I said that no one has ever seen the Three Flavored True Fire, not Azure Fire."
"Hehe! I really didn't expect He Li to be so good at this! He can just spout out Mnemonic and fool people, do you think I can't understand it?" Yue Qianchou shook his head and patted He Li's shoulder, sighing, "I have plenty of time, no rush, keep making things up."
"Nonsense..." He Li was so angry that he could barely speak.
Yue Qianchou glanced around guiltily. This guy's a bit dim-witted. He didn't want to attract the sharp-witted Bi Changchun. He quickly waved his hand and said, "Since you say I'm talking nonsense, then explain the verse to me! You can't just say it's true and force me to believe it!"
"Listen carefully, 'the green hidden in the Twilight Valley's refers to the green fire hidden in the Twilight Valley west of Thousand Mile Lake, and 'the black hidden in the Nine Netherworlds' refers to the black fire hidden in the Nine Nether Cave. The last two sentences mean that we don't know where the purple fire is. Now we know that I didn't make this up!" In order to clear his name, He Li rattled off the whole story in one breath.
"You're my boss!" Yue Qianchou's eyelids twitched, his heart pounding with joy. He straightened his expression and said, "Although I don't know if what you're saying is true or false, it seems I might have wronged you. But you can't blame me, since I haven't seen it with my own eyes. How about you take me to see it sometime?"
"Let's go, let's go now. Anyway, Master won't be back for another ten days or so. I'll take you to see Qinghuo right now." He Li still angry and turned to leave.
So Bi Changchun has already gone out! This is truly a stroke of luck! If the Fire Technique could absorb some of the Azure Flame, that would be wonderful. Yue Qianchou nodded repeatedly and said, "Alright! I'll go with you and see if you He Li, are still spouting nonsense to deceive people."
Just as He Li was about to leap into the air, he stopped, turned around, and shook his head repeatedly. This caused the flying sword to spring out, Yue Qianchou, who was about to step onto it, missed his footing, the sword blade tearing his trouser leg and nearly cutting himself. But that was nothing; Yue Qianchou caught the flying sword and asked in surprise, "He Li, why did you stop?"
He Li shook his head repeatedly, and only after Yue Qianchou pressed him repeatedly did he frown and say, "Master instructed me not to bring outsiders to Twilight Valley, so I can't take you."
Yue Qianchou opened his mouth, only to realize it was all for nothing. His anger flared, and he jabbed at me, "Damn it! You've got guts, you're ruthless, you dare to play me for a fool!"
Seeing that he actually dared to scold him, He Li's expression, which was originally a little guilty, immediately darkened, and he said coldly, " In the Demon Ghost Domain, apart from my master, no one dares to scold me. If you dare to point fingers at me again, be careful that you will never be able to see your own fingers again."
Upon hearing this, Yue Qianchou's mouth gaped open again. He then realized that although the other person looked young and seemed easily fooled, he was actually a Demon Cultivator at the mid Tribulation stage, and he was no match for him. He immediately withdrew his hand and shut his mouth, daring not to be presumptuous any longer...
