Destroying Ice River Valley-What's So Difficult About That?
The next day, Tang Zhen looked at the energy shield whose energy fluctuations were becoming increasingly calm, and at the two figures sitting cross-legged on the ground that could be vaguely seen inside, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It seems that Huo'er will be able to successfully inherit the Heavenly Flames this time!
This Heavenly Flames contains some of my own Dou Qi. After the inheritance is successful, Huo'er's strength should also improve.
Hmm? Tang Zhen was considering whether to send his daughter out for training, but soon he frowned and looked at the sky to the side.
An old figure flew over at lightning speed and landed beside him.
"Second Elder?" Tang Zhen's face darkened as he looked at the Second Elder, whose expression showed anxiety. "What happened?"
"Valley Master, the Third Elder has been struck by the Ice River Valley's Ice Venerable Strength and is now critically injured!"
The Second Elder quickly replied.
"Ice Venerable Strength?" Upon hearing this, Tang Zhen's brows furrowed tightly, but he quickly said, "Come on, take me to see it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Zhen rolled up his sleeves and appeared in the main hall of Burning Flame Valley with the Second Elder.
The Third Elder, Wu Chen, was pale, covered in frost, with his eyes closed and his body trembling slightly.
"As expected of the Ice Venerable Strength, Ice River Valley!"
Tang Zhen glanced at him, and his face darkened completely. He flashed to the side of the Third Elder, helped him up, placed one palm on his back, and unleashed a surge of powerful Fire Attribute Douqi, expelling the Ice Venerable Strength from his body.
"Puff!"
The next moment, the Third Elder couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood with pale blue ice crystals, but his complexion visibly became much rosier.
"Valley Master."
The Third Elder opened his eyes and saw Tang Zhen's concerned gaze. He grinned and then flipped his hand, revealing a blood-red crystal.
"This is the Magic Core of the seventh-tier Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast that Xiao Yuan wanted."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Third Elder coughed violently.
This Ice Venerable Strength was extremely domineering, but fortunately, he cultivated Fire Attribute Douqi, so his injuries were not particularly serious, just that he looked rather miserable.
"Okay, I understand. You go and rest first. I'll handle this!"
Tang Zhen nodded, then glanced around. Immediately, someone stepped forward and helped the Third Elder to rest.
"What exactly happened?"
Tang Zhen looked at a disciple of the Burning Flame Valley and asked in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, the disciple who had returned with the Third Elder hurriedly said, "Valley Master, after our investigation, we discovered traces of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast in the Fallen God Stream in the northern part of the Pill Domain. So the Third Elder led us to the Fallen God Stream."
After a thorough search, we found the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast. The Third Elder personally killed it, but unexpectedly, the Heavenly Serpent Old Ghost from Ice River Valley launched a sneak attack, severely injuring the Third Elder and attempting to seize the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast's Magic Core. If the Third Elder hadn't activated the Space Jade Slip before losing consciousness, we would all probably have perished there!
"Just for a Magic Core?"
Tang Zhen frowned. Was it really worth injuring someone so badly just for the Magic Core of a seventh-tier Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast? "Sect Master, I heard that Ice River Valley is currently hunting down a woman with the Woeful Poison Body. However, that woman is accompanied by two Dou Zong experts, one of whom possesses Heavenly Flames and is quite powerful. They have killed many people from Ice River Valley."
The Second Elder also stepped forward to add to the list.
"Woeful Poison Body?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhen's eyes widened in surprise. Clearly, he was quite surprised that such a renowned and special physique had reappeared in Central State.
"By the way, that Heavenly Serpent Old Ghost also said that it was our Burning Flame Valley disciples who made the first move."
The disciples of Burning Flame Valley chimed in.
"How could that be?" The Second Elder frowned upon hearing this and couldn't help but curse, "That old bastard has really lost his mind! Valley Master, why don't I lead the team to Fallen God Stream and settle accounts with that old bastard, Tian She!"
"I'll go."
At that moment, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Xiao Yuan?"
The Second Elder recognized Xiao Yuan's voice, but after scanning his surroundings, he couldn't see him.
"This matter concerns Burning Flame Valley, so you don't need to worry about it. Just take good care of Huo'er."
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhen shook his head, looked at the void in front of him, and said calmly.
"Uncle, this matter is probably really related to me. The woman with the Woeful Poison Body that the Second Elder mentioned earlier is my good friend. As for the one who uses the Heavenly Flames, he is my younger brother. He has also cultivated the first transformation of the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations. Perhaps it is because of this that Ice River Valley has some misunderstanding."
Xiao Yuan's voice then rang out.
How is Huo'er?
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly, then said softly.
"The inheritance has been successful. Now, as long as we digest the remaining Dou Qi in the Heavenly Flames, our strength will greatly increase."
Xiao Yuan said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhen nodded slightly to the Second Elder, then flashed back to the outside of the altar.
The silver flame shield had dissipated at some point, revealing Tang Huo'er, who was wearing a wide robe, and Xiao Yuan, who stood up to greet her.
"Are we going to save that Calamity Poison Girl?"
Tang Zhen glanced at Tang Huo'er and asked in a calm tone.
"Yes, and some of my brother's trump cards cannot be easily exposed. Therefore, I must resolve the troubles in Ice River Valley before he uses his methods, otherwise my teacher will be in danger."
Xiao Yuan nodded with a rather solemn expression.
"It seems the Venerable Yao is with your brother?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhen nodded, then flipped his hand, and a jade piece appeared in his palm.
"Take this jade piece with you. If you encounter any trouble that you can't solve, crush it. I don't want Huo'er to hear bad news about you after she wakes up."
Tang Zhen said with a teasing smile.
"Don't worry, Uncle Tang, as long as it's not the Valley Master of Ice River Valley who makes a move, I don't care about anyone else!"
Xiao Yuan took the jade piece and said with a smile.
"Don't be careless. The Valley Master of Ice River Valley also has the Woeful Poison Body. Although it was formed later in life, it is still terrifying. Even if you have the protection of the Heavenly Flames, you must be extra careful!"
Tang Zhen's expression darkened slightly as he earnestly gave his instructions.
"I will, Uncle, don't worry. Senior Tianhuo will be awakening soon. What difficulty will it be to destroy Ice River Valley then? But after that, I will need Uncle to send someone to take over. I'm determined to Ice River Valley's power and territory!"
A chilling expression appeared on Xiao Yuan's face as he spoke with murderous intent.
"Hehe, I forgot you have quite a few helpers around you now! In that case, you go ahead, I'll keep an eye on Huo'er. This time, we're very grateful to have you."
Tang Zhen nodded and said with a smile.
"Uncle, you're too kind. This is a seventh-grade Healing Pill. I'll have to trouble you to pass it on to the Third Elder."
Xiao Yuan smiled, then took out a jade bottle and handed it to Tang Zhen.
"Yes, that's thoughtful."
Tang Zhen nodded and accepted the jade bottle.
"Uncle Tang, farewell!"
Xiao Yuan cupped his hands in greeting, his figure transformed into a bolt of blue lightning, and he vanished in a flash.
Ice River Valley
Tang Zhen stared in the direction where Xiao Yuan had disappeared, muttering to himself as a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Dealing with Ice River Valley is no easy task.
In the past, there have been many conflicts between Burning Flame Valley and Ice River Valley, but the two are roughly equal in strength. If they were to fight each other, it would be easy for someone else to reap the benefits.
However, Xiao Yuan now has two Dou Zun expert by his side, and given his relationship with Huo'er, dealing with Ice River Valley would be quite beneficial for Burning Flame Valley.
Carrying Cai Lin with him, Xiao Yuan left the Burning Flame Valley without lingering and sped off towards the direction of Tianhuang City.
On Heavenly Flame Venerable's side, Xiao Yuan left Soul Imprint on a jade piece. With Heavenly Flame Venerable's abilities, as long as he knows Xiao Yuan's approximate location, he can directly tear through space and quickly arrive at the location, finding Xiao Yuan by relying on the Soul Imprint.
Cai Lin didn't say anything about Xiao Yuan going to save other women, because she knew that when it came to the order of arrival, both Xiao Yi Xian and Yun Yun had an advantage over her. Besides, this was about saving someone, and she couldn't be jealous over something like this.
At their speed, traveling at full speed, they soon arrived at Tianhuang City. In order to save time, Xiao Yuan directly used his soul power to lock onto Liu Qing's location, and then took Cai Lin and landed inside the Liu Family's manor.
"Liu Qing, I need to use a wormhole, quick!"
Xiao Yuan didn't stand on ceremony with Liu Qing. As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up Liu Qing and flew towards the Space Wormhole.
"I was just about to ask someone to tell you that Xiao Yan and his Burning Flame Valley are in trouble. It's said that Ice River Valley has sent a large number of powerful experts to Ye City to capture them!"
Liu Qing also hurriedly said.
"Yes, that's exactly what I'm going to do. Sorry, I've been busy in Burning Flame Valley lately, and I have to leave as soon as I come out."
Xiao Yuan said somewhat apologetically.
"Why are you being so polite with me? If I weren't the patriarch of the family now, and couldn't do whatever I wanted as before, I would definitely follow you to see just how powerful the Ice River Valley really is!"
As Liu Qing laughed heartily, the three of them landed on the ground and arrived in front of the Space Wormhole.
"Do you need Space Ship?"
With a single glance from Liu Qing, guards stepped forward and stopped those waiting to enter the wormhole. Liu Qing then took out a small silver boat and asked with a smile.
"I do have one, but it doesn't look as good as yours. Thanks."
Xiao Yuan took the Space Ship and then tossed two jade bottles to Liu Qing.
Until we meet again!
Xiao Yuan smiled, then grabbed Cai Lin and flew into the Space Wormhole.
Liu Qing shook his head helplessly at Xiao Yuan's decisive style, and then checked the pills in the jade bottle.
"These are... the Imperial Zenith Pill and the Break-Sect Pill!?"
Liu Qing stared wide-eyed at the pill in his hand, his heart trembling violently.
This guy just casually gave me such a precious pill, really... sigh! Liu Qing looked at the Space Wormhole that was gradually calming down and couldn't help but sigh.
The two Xiao Clan brothers, who were once renowned throughout the Inner Academy, were destined to become famous Central State!
However, his cultivation speed was indeed a bit slow, and this pill was also a reminder to him! This guy! Shaking his head, Liu Qing put away the pill with an apologetic smile on his face. He turned around and walked towards the Space Channel, where the crowd who had been delayed and looked displeased were sitting Xiao Yuan at the bow of the Space Ship, but his expression was much calmer.
I thought that with Xiao Yan around, Xiao Yi Xian's Woeful Poison Body wouldn't have any problems, but some things are just unavoidable.
However, it's not surprising that such a special physique always attracts the covetous eyes of some.
Back in the Jia Ma Empire, Xiao Qing Lian, who possessed the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, was captured by the Mo Clan because of this, but fortunately nothing went wrong in the end.
"Qing Lian."
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but recall the little girl who used to timidly follow him around calling him "Young Master." He wondered how she was doing now.
If there's a chance, I could visit the Heavenly Serpent Mansion and see how far that little girl Qing Lian has come.
"But right now, we still need to resolve the matter of Xiao Yi Xian!"
Slowly gathering his wandering thoughts, Xiao Yuan took a deep breath, and then flame-like characters flashed in his eyes.
He had already successfully mastered the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations, but he hadn't reached a particularly proficient level. With five more days to go, the large force from Ice River Valley wouldn't be able to move too quickly. Therefore, Xiao Yuan planned to spend the next five days absorbing the cultivation experience of those predecessors in the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations.
Cai Lin sat to the side, watching Xiao Yuan slowly close his eyes and begin to cultivate. A gentle look appeared on her beautiful face.
Speaking of which, over the years, Xiao Yuan has spent most of her time cultivating. Apart from occasionally indulging herself with her partner, she spends the rest of her time cultivating. Even she herself back then was slightly inferior in terms of such a crazy way of cultivating.
Back then, for the future of the Snake-People Tribe, she was willing to risk her life to advance to the Dou Zong level. Now, even while traveling, Xiao Yuan makes the most of his time to cultivate.
Moreover, like her, Xiao Yuan cultivates not only for his own strength, but also to protect the people he wants to protect.
And I am one of them.
Although she has a strong personality and is unwilling to rely on others for protection, sometimes, the feeling of being protected is actually not bad!
Cai Lin gazed at Xiao Yuan's flawless profile, her smile grew even gentler.
Within the Space Channel, time slipped away swiftly like sand through one's fingers. In the following days of travel, Xiao Yuan's mind was completely immersed in the cultivation method of the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations. He cultivated without knowing the passage of time. When Cai Lin gently awakened him, the silver halo in the distance came into view.
"Are we almost there?!"
Gazing at the silver halo, Xiao Yuan clenched his fists tightly, and a chilling glint slowly rose in his dark eyes.
Like a streak of silver light, the Space Ship flashed through the passage and in the blink of an eye, it approached the location of the light circle. Under such violent spatial fluctuations, the ship's hull also began to shake rapidly.
Xiao Yuan paid no attention to the turbulence. His expression remained calm as he maneuvered the Space Ship, which whizzed away and passed through the silver light circle in the blink of an eye.
