At these words, Xiahou You's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed excitedly:
"So Young Master Taiping wasn't using the Thunder Sound Five-Direction Earth-Splitting Formation at full strength against his enemy because he was preparing this Origin-Returning True Flame!"
Beside her, disbelief first flashed through Xiahou Qingyuan's eyes when he heard this, before giving way to envy and jealousy.
For disciples of secluded sects like them, who knew the truth, from the moment they began undergoing Heavenly Tribulations, their clan or sect elders had taught them to seek a way to recreate Earth-Fire Tribulation Transcendence, to restore the former glory of the Human Race contending against heaven.
But whether it was their Jade Balance Mountain.
Or the other reclusive aristocratic clans and sects, in the hundred thousand years and more since the last spectacle of Earth Fire Burning the Heavens, not one cultivator among their disciples had managed to recreate that extraordinary sight.
If this minor cultivator before them, from a third-rate sect and with no backing whatsoever, accomplished today what the countless disciples of secluded sects and aristocratic clans had failed to do, it would undoubtedly be an utter humiliation for the younger generation of sect disciples like them.
Thus, Xiahou Qingyuan frowned and said coldly:
"Even if he can condense Origin-Returning True Flame, whether he can withstand the next eight bolts of Tribulation Lightning falling from the Heavenly Tribulation Eye remains unknown!"
Hearing this, Xiahou You immediately retorted:
"So what?"
Xiahou You continued:
"If everyone clung to life and feared death as you do, the Ancestor of Earth Fire would never have appeared in this world!"
"If everyone were like you, our Human Race would probably still be living in underground caves where the sun never shone, at risk of becoming food for Great Yao at any moment!"
