Chen Wuji and Zhu Xiangxin, who were guarding two Ice Flames, had changed their hiding place to a deep ravine in some mountains.

The designated place by Wu Jinliang was naturally not difficult to find.

When members from Mingshan Sect and Shudao Mountain arrived together, it frightened Chen Wuji and Zhu Xiangxin so much that they dared not show themselves until Wu Jinliang called out several times. Chen Wuji then surfaced, but Zhu Xiangxin still hid and did not show her face.

It wasn't until Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang personally came over to reassure them that they lowered their guard.

A group of people then entered a cave in the cliffside.

"See, I didn't deceive you, did I?" Shi Chun pointed at the two Ice Flames in Zhu Xiangxin's hand, speaking to Gu Lianni and the others following her.

Gu Lianni and Yuan Yao's eyes instantly lit up, both subconsciously swallowing their saliva in true envy.

Pang Hou, holding a large clump of dirt, was no exception even though he had seen them before.

"Give it to them," Shi Chun instructed Zhu Xiangxin.

Zhu Xiangxin hesitated for a moment, even though she had already absorbed the Ice Flames, she knew these were treasures. To just give them away? But she also knew that Shi Chun's word was final, so she reluctantly handed them over.

Gu Lianni caught one in each hand and, after personally verifying them, looked both excited and slightly teary. These were truly their Divine Fire.

Outsiders couldn't understand the immense pressure she had faced. Having just entered the Divine Fire Domain, she had led the troops from Shudao Mountain into severe losses and even lost the Magic Artifact for the Element Locking Array, which they needed to seek Divine Fire. How could she face her sect if she returned empty-handed?

It might be somewhat easier for others to return disgraced, but she was the daughter of the Sect Leader of Shudao Mountain. Her status brought not only a sense of superiority but also significant pressure. She feared she might never be able to hold her head high again.

But now, things improved with two Divine Fires at once; even if they found no more, she could barely manage to answer to her sect.

Compared to Shi Chun's place, two Divine Fires might not seem much. In fact, Divine Fires are very hard to capture, like the previously captured Earth Flame, which one wouldn't typically get so close to.

It's usually quite good for a sect to manage two or three fires in one visit, as most sects end up with none.

Of course, securing two fires was certainly not considered good for a sect like Shudao Mountain, and further effort was needed.

But regardless, Gu Lianni's pressure was significantly reduced now.

Once the items were in their hands and verified, she nodded to Pang Hou, signaling, "Give it to them."

So the clump of dirt in Pang Hou's hand cracked and fell to the ground, revealing the bright yellow flame in his palm. Zhu Xiangxin's eyes instantly brightened. Seeing Shi Chun nod, she quickly took it into her hands.

Gu Lianni and the others couldn't wait to leave with the Divine Fire.

Shi Chun then said to Wu Jinliang, "Call all the brothers in."

Wu Jinliang went out at once and soon brought others into the cave.

Seeing the new Divine Fire, Tong Mingshan and An Wuzhi's eyes also lit up; they could barely shift their gaze and held their breath.

The others were also surprised; another new Divine Fire? Having dealt with this for so long, they knew Divine Fires were extremely rare.

Shi Chun glanced at the three who practiced the Fire Attribute Skill, saying calmly, "I know that according to the rules of even distribution, this Divine Fire should theoretically go to An Wuzhi since the other two have absorbed two each, and An Wuzhi has only one. However…"

As he spoke, An Wuzhi's heart sank, peering desperately at Shi Chun, his eyes revealing a pitiful look.

But Shi Chun's tone was firm, "Actually, this decision could have been made behind the scenes, keeping the other two in the dark, but I think some things can be hidden, and some should not, especially when it comes to dividing shares. It's better to speak openly so everyone knows.

The Divine Fire Covenant is mainly an event for Artifact Refiners. An Wuzhi and Zhu Xiangxin's participation is somewhat due to the Sect Master's grace.

Of course, that's not the most important thing. The main goal of our expedition is not just to benefit a single person or a few people.

Brother Chu and others risked their lives repeatedly to help you get the Divine Fire, almost losing their lives multiple times for it. Are they happy about that? Are they willing? What is their reason for risking their lives for you?

Therefore, this trip to the Divine Fire Domain is mainly to help the Sect Master acquire as much Divine Fire as possible, to aid the Sect Master in prevailing.

Not for anything else but for those three treasures; securing those treasures will mean a long period of cultivation resources for Brother Chu and the rest.

Thus, they're helping you as much as they're helping themselves.

So, whenever we find Divine Fire, it should first cover our Sect Master's needs. If the timing doesn't suit the Sect Master, it should be distributed to the other two. Like when we found Golden Flame in the Iron Forest, the Sect Master was still at the exit absorbing Divine Fire Red Flame, and we didn't know when he would be done. We wouldn't wait specially for him; we just gave it to Zhu Xiangxin.

The distribution will continue in this way. If anyone's unhappy, it doesn't matter, and it's not too late to leave. I won't make it difficult, but that's how it's going to be—I have the final say!""

He pointed at Zhu Xiangxin, "Give the Divine Fire to the Sect Master for him to absorb in seclusion. Everyone else, leave and do not disturb."

The Divine Fire was now in their hands, and Zhu Xiangxin truly didn't want to part with it, but in the end, she obediently handed it over to Tong Mingshan.

Receiving the Divine Fire, Tong Mingshan was indeed pleasantly surprised; he too thought it was meant for An Wuzhi this time and had not expected otherwise.
