Chapter 513: Gathering

Translator: Transn  Editor: Transn

Yun Tianhe was in a state of shock and anger. And unexpectedly, another figure showed up, which made him shocked again. But before he could react, the crack that Hong Xuanlong had created before was torn open again by that person before it could completely close. And then, that figure went into the crack.

It was not until the end of all this that Yun Tianhe finally reacted to it.

“Hmph. Since you’re courting death, I won’t stop you!” Ashen-faced, Yun Tianhe waved his sleeve, and the canopy in the air turned into a water dragon again, falling into the lake. For a short while, the surrounding space-times of Greensword Mountain were brutally suppressed again.

“Uncle Tianhe, what kind of Divine Senses did that man use just now? How could he move so fast?” After watching Zhou Bao flash by, the people standing behind Yun Tianhe were all shocked. Amongst them, a woman asked him the question curiously.

“He didn’t use any Divine Senses. He only used the power of his body to break the space apart!” Yun Tianhe looked quite serious. He added, “Judging by the figure of this person, it must be Zhou Bao of Yunzhou, the most powerful man of the young generation in the Central Mainland Region in recent years. Originally, I thought the reason he became a rising star is that he had some lucky chances. I hadn’t thought he would be able to pose a threat to me. But now it seems that he’s much stronger than I imagined!”

“Zhou Bao of Yunzhou? I have heard of him too. Rumors have it that he possesses a special technique, the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword, and is capable of killing Venerables. Is that true?” The woman asked in surprise and exclaimed, “Is that him?!”

“It’s not terrifying to kill a Venerable with a special technique. It’s just like people in antiquity times could kill Genuine Immortals by skipping ranks with a powerful magic weapon. The horrible thing is that Zhou Bao is able to tear the space apart with bare hands. This shows that in addition to that special technique, his physical strength is also beyond our imagination!” Yun Tianhe said with a solemn look.

“Then what should we do? He has already entered Greensword Mountain!” The woman looked quite anxious when she saw Yun Tianhe’s expression.

“It’s no big deal; after all, we’re just the first line of defense. Even if he enters Greensword Mountain, it’s not easy for him to find the Evil Fire Kylin. No matter how strong he is, he is still alone and can therefore not do anything big.”

In the underground fire vein of Greensword Mountain.

Countless tunnels branched like the roots of a tree straight down into the depths of the fire vein. 10,000 feet below the fire vein were torrents of lava, which rolled in like a raging river that went on and on. Except for a major river channel, which was about 1,000 feet wide, numerous root-like branches formed as the lava flowed. These branches stretched out and formed an underground fire vein with a radius of thousands of miles under Greensword Mountain. There were various Spiritual Stones of the fire-property, adamantine, and lakes that were entirely made of lava. All these mysterious objects were emanating fire-property spiritual qi and Evil Qi, covering the entire earth vein with it.

Here was definitely a holy place for practicing Fire Way Methods.

If a Powerful Divine were here to see through the layout of the underground fire vein with a single glance, then it would be easy for that person to figure out that the lava of this underground fire vein was not scattered randomly. In fact, all the root-like magmatic torrents were distributed fairly regular and happened to coincide with the Way of Heaven. Hence, a formation was formed, and that was why there was such an earth vein.

In the deepest part of this formation was a lava lake that was different from all the other. If observed carefully, one would find that all the magmatic currents in this underground fire vein would get together in it. Therefore, it was abundant with Spiritual Energy of Fire, which was almost materialized into liquid. There was a thick, cloud-like, red mist floating above the lake in which a golden red light flickered. And obviously, the mist was the top Fire-property Evil Qi.

This was the place where Zhou Bao had encountered the Evil Fire Kylin in those years, and it was also the lair of that Kylin.

Of course, that was why Zhou Bao felt strange. Since the Evil Fire Kylin’s lair was so secluded, he would not have found it if he hadn’t been lucky enough. So, how could this Evil Fire Kylin be found?

That was Zhou Bao’s first concern. His second concern was related to Greensword Mountain. Since it was the territory of the Redflame School and, with a Level Nine expert, Raging Fire Ancestor, guarding the underground fire vein, it was impossible for ordinary people to get in. Being lucky, Zhou Bao could sneak into the fire vein with Prince Xiaoming that year. But after that event, Raging Fire Ancestor further strengthened the defense of the entire Greensword Mountain. Under such circumstances, it was quite difficult to sneak into the fire vein without a certain strength. So how could other people find traces of the Evil Fire Kylin?

At least when found, the finder of the Evil Fire Kylin should be the people of the Redflame School. The school took control of Greensword Mountain; and once they found such a treasure, they definitely would not tell others about it. They would just keep it a secret.

There were a lot of smart people in this world, as so were the ones who had the same doubts as Zhou Bao did.

There was a saying: “When greed enters the door, reason flies out of the window.” So even if they knew that there was something odd about the news, those who were confident enough in themselves still rushed there without hesitation.

Even Zhou Bao came there.

At this moment, the deepest part of the lake was not as smooth as a mirror. With many ups and downs, assorted deep trenches led straight down to the depths of the earth.

With a miserable expression, the Evil Fire Kylin was on its hands and knees in a low-lying area, looking at the black light in front of it in terror.

“You don’t need to be afraid. I just use you to attract my enemies this time. As long as I kill them, I’ll let you go!” The black light didn’t make a sound. It just delivered its divine thoughts into the Evil Fire Kylin’s mind.

“Will your enemy really come? It’s been so many days!” The Evil Fire Kylin asked cautiously. It was really unlucky because it knew nothing about the black light. It just knew that the black light possessed a horrifying strength that it was unable to fight against. It was controlled as soon as the black light appeared, and the light didn’t give it any chance to defend itself.

“He will definitely come!” The Kylin received this hard and cold message from the black light. Even in the rolling magma, it still could not help but shiver and didn’t dare to ask anymore.

Once again, the bottom of the lava lake became calm. And the Kylin laid with its stomach on the ground, not moving an inch.

Not knowing how long it took, the Kylin suddenly opened its sharp and ferocious eyes. It had lived in the underground lava lake for many years and had almost combined with the lake. Therefore, nothing that happened in the lake could be concealed from it.

“Someone is sucking the water out of the lava lake!”

What was happening above the lake naturally affected the Kylin under the lake. If it had been ordinary times, the Kylin would have gone out long ago. But now, it could only shake its head and bend down helplessly. Its blood-red eyes were looking straight into the broad ditch not far away. The ditch directly led to the ground. If it wasn’t for the mysterious, black light ball that had controlled it, even if it were discovered and hunted down by others, it could get into the ditch and wouldn’t have to worry about being caught. It should be noted that the dangers underground were no less, or even more, than in the void.

Now, it was very helpless. It didn’t dare to move after being controlled, let alone run away.

It had tried to resist the black light ball before, but it only brought it an undesirable feeling that it would never forget. And now, it had to stay there and wait for the final result.

There was a beautiful white-robed Taoist Priestess with an expressionless face standing above the lake. She was holding a Purple Golden Gourd in a downward gesture. A purple glow emanated from the gourd and swept around the lake.

Both the golden red cloud cluster above the lake and the magma in the lake were directly taken into the gourd continuously. No one knew how broad the space in the gourd was. Perhaps it could suck in the entire magma of the lake.

“It’s the Purple Golden Gourd of Origin, a Pure Yang Celestial Device of antiquity times! Who is this woman? Is she from the Youxian Temple? Mmm, right. The pattern on her robe is exactly the mark of the Youxian Temple!”

Undoubtedly, the mysterious, black light ball knew what was happening above the lake. The sight of the Taoist Priestess and the gourd in her hands made the black light ball think, “The Youxian Temple doesn’t belong to the Four Eastern Regions. So what are they doing here? Oh, I remember that one of its Divine Senses requires the essence and blood of the Evil Fire Kylin. Haha, no wonder they would come here!” Thinking of this point, he laughed bitterly in his heart. His target was not the Youxian Temple. But since he had leaked the news of the Evil Fire Kylin, naturally, there would be all sorts of people coming here. And that was meant to happen. He was ready for it, but he was still a little bit surprised. However, he didn’t care that much about it.

“Ah, what’s that?! Such a powerful gourd! She looks like a member of the Youxian Temple. When did they come to the Central Mainland Region?!”

As the black light ball showed up, another spatial wave appeared near the lake. After that, a lot of holes appeared from which many people came out one by one.

They were from the Divine Wind Palace, Immortal Palace, Dragon Thunder Palace, Jade Pool, and Bigwheel Temple. In short, the five biggest sects in the Four Eastern Regions had all discovered this underground fire vein and its Formation Eye. They arrived here almost at the same time.
