Chapter 169 No time, get out!

Time flies, and months pass.

The outskirts of the Tagor Desert.

In the sky, the scorching sun that had been hanging for a day gradually fell below the horizon. The fiery red light covered the entire desert with a layer of orange gauze.

At the foot of the mountain, a dusty young man in black wiped the yellow sand mixed with sweat from his head, pursed his cracked lips, and let out a long breath.

“Alas, although this Burning Technique has been successfully evolved through the Purple Fire of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, it is only at the intermediate level of the Yellow Rank and cannot support my consumption at all. It is really too uncomfortable in this desert!”

The young man in black stretched his sore muscles and gave a bitter smile.

"Haha. Don't worry! As long as you successfully swallow the strange fire, the Burning Technique will definitely reach the Xuan level, and then it won't be like this!" An old voice suddenly sounded.

Hearing this, the young man in black slowly raised his head and looked towards the crescent moon gradually rising on the horizon.

Thinking about the hardships he had gone through and about being able to devour the long-awaited strange fire, the young man in black began to get excited and the corners of his mouth gradually opened.

"I will definitely succeed!" His thin lips revealed a bit of stubbornness.

An illusory body suddenly appeared beside the young man, and judging from his face, it was Yao Lao.

"The hard work of the past three years is finally coming to fruition. I will do my best to help you achieve your wish!"

Yao Lao looked at the confident young man next to him, a trace of relief and tenderness flashed in his turbid eyes, and he whispered in his heart.

The silver moon gradually rose to the middle of the sky, and the stars were shining brightly.

In a cave on the mountain, Xiao Yan carefully checked and cleaned it, then sat cross-legged on a huge rock.

"Teacher, what should we do next?" Xiao Yan's eyes calmed down, he swallowed, and his voice trembled slightly.

Yao Lao didn't say anything. He stretched out his hand and three things floated out from the ring on Xiao Yan's hand.

A blood-colored pill, a jade bottle surrounded by white mist, and a thumb-sized gray stone.

"Blood Lotus Pill, Ice Spirit Cold Spring, Soul-gathering, the procedures for using these things are as I told you before, and then."

As he spoke, Yao Lao took a deep breath, his face became solemn, and he stretched out his hand again, and a green lotus-shaped flame flashed out from the Black Ghost Ring.

"Is this the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire?"

Xiao Yan looked at the green flame floating in the air with fiery eyes, feeling the rapidly rising temperature around him. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and forced himself to calm down.

"That's right! This fire is now wrapped by the Bone Spirit Cold Fire controlled by my master. Otherwise, you can't get so close to it now!"

Yao Lao nodded, looked at Xiao Yan, and patted his shoulder with a serious look: "Let's get started! Take the Blood Lotus Pill first!"

"Hmm!" Xiao Yan nodded slightly, sucked with his palm, and the blood-colored pill fell into his palm.

Staring at this fifth-grade pill, Xiao Yan's expression turned ruthless. He closed his eyes and stuffed it into his mouth.

As the drug took effect, large amounts of blood continued to seep out of Xiao Yan's body pores. The blood gradually coagulated and gradually formed an airtight blood-colored armor on his body.

Upon seeing this, Yao Lao waved his hand and took back the Bone Spirit Cold Fire wrapped in the green flame.

In an instant, the floating green flame broke free from suppression and suddenly surged. A terrifying destructive force, as if awakening, emerged in the cave.

The cave suddenly seemed to turn into a sea of ​​green fire. The rocks on the cave wall melted instantly, forming drops of magma that flowed down along the stone wall.

Seeing this, Yao Lao was about to use his soul power to wrap the cave.

Suddenly his expression froze, and he was in a trance for a moment, as if time and space were distorted around him.

It seemed as if I saw a vague figure, tall and majestic, surrounded by stars, standing in the void.

Her eyes were looking at him. Although her face was blurry, her eyes were extremely bright, like a sea of ​​stars and as deep as an abyss.

The figure raised his arm, and the stars suddenly felt distorted. He stretched out a finger, pointing straight towards the cave, but it seemed to encounter some resistance, and it was very slow and difficult.

Yao Lao's mind was immediately captured by the finger. The lines on it were clearly visible. He wanted to look away from it,

But it was as if he was hit by a spell that froze him. Not only did his body not move, but even his eyeballs could not move at all. Suddenly, his hair stood on end and he was terrified. He could only watch him fall.

That finger is beyond description.

It looks small, but it feels like a giant pillar supporting the sky.

It seems very slow, but in fact it feels like crossing time and space in an instant.

With Yao Lao's horrified expression, he touched the green flame with his finger and the picture shattered instantly.

Yao Lao came back to his senses in a daze, looked around vigilantly, and found that everything in the cave was normal, no different from before, as if the previous scene was all an illusion.

"Is it a hallucination?" He wiped his forehead. Although he was only a spirit now, he still felt cold sweat.

I haven't felt that kind of ant-like feeling for many years.

Even if he had met a Dousheng-level strongman before, he would still feel the same as him in front of that finger, without exception!

"Is it the Emperor? Is there still an Emperor in the continent? Why would he take action against the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire?" For a moment, too many doubts lingered in his mind, like a tangled mess.

He couldn't help but look at the blue flame. If it wasn't an illusion, then the blurry figure must have done something to the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire.

He used his soul perception to carefully examine the flame inside and out, but he found that there was no difference from before.

But another feeling came from his spiritual sense, that the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire seemed a little different from before, as if something was missing.

Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan who was unaware of anything, and his expression was a little uncertain for a moment. He didn't know whether he should let his disciple devour this strange fire under such circumstances!
"Forget it! If what happened just now wasn't an illusion, with the means of a person like that, it wouldn't take so much trouble to harm Xiao Yanzi!"

Yao Lao shook his head with a wry smile, buried the matter deep in his heart, and released the suppression of the Qinglian Earth Core Fire.

The green flame swelled up in the wind, and in the blink of an eye, its volume expanded a hundred times, becoming extremely violent, whirring and tumbling, burning everything around it and making a hissing sound.

"Put your palm into the flame. In the center of the strange fire, there is a wisp of original fire. Take it out, quickly!"

After saying that, Yao Lao waved his hand and set up a soul barrier in the cave, otherwise the cave would be destroyed by the strange fire.

Just when Xiao Yan was absorbing the strange fire.

Somewhere in the desert.

Next to a bonfire, several figures were sitting on the ground.

"Lao He, don't be so gloomy. If we didn't find it this time, let's keep looking!"

A sturdy man patted the shoulder of the elegant middle-aged man next to him, and comforted him in a rough voice, "Hey, old lion, you know how much effort I put into finding this strange fire. This time... it's really a pity!"

The elegant middle-aged man sighed with a hint of bitterness on his face.

"Who would have thought that there is a strange fire outside of Shimo City? We have passed by here many times over the years, but we have never paid attention to this place!"

A thin man shook his head and sighed.

"That's right! But Lao He, you have nothing to lose. I asked the people in Shimo City, and they said that four Dou Huangs fought a big battle outside the city at that time. It must have been for this strange fire. Among them was the notorious Queen Medusa!"

“If we were there at that time, with our skills, there would be no chance at all!” said the sturdy man, waving his hand.

"Indeed! There are only a few Douhuang in our Jiama Empire. I didn't expect that there would be four here. I really don't know where these powerful people came from!" The thin man nodded.

As he was speaking, the middle-aged man suddenly stood up and looked in one direction with sharp eyes.

"That's right! Lao He"

"Old River, what's wrong with you?"

"I seem to feel the breath of strange fire!" After saying that, a pair of energy wings emerged behind the middle-aged man and flew quickly in that direction.

The remaining two people looked shocked and looked at each other. Two pairs of wings appeared, turned into two streams of light, and followed.

Deep in the desert, the snakeman temple.

In the spacious and luxurious hall, an enchanting figure was leaning lazily on the purple crystal throne.

Three thousand strands of black hair casually fell on her shoulders. Under the red and gold brocade robe, her almost perfect and delicate body was revealed, exuding a charming and alluring aura.

Her slender jade fingers gently rubbed her eyebrows, and there was a hint of fatigue on her charming face.

Suddenly, the woman's jade hand on her forehead paused, and her narrow and beautiful eyes seemed to penetrate the void and suddenly looked in one direction.

"This is the breath of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire!"

A soft and charming voice, with a hint of majesty, murmured in the empty hall.

Before the voice fell, the figure on the throne had disappeared, leaving only the faint ripples in the space gradually calming down.

In the cave, under Yao Lao's nervous gaze without blinking, Xiao Yan reached his palm into the strange fire and grabbed it at an extremely fast speed.

Enduring the high temperature of the strange fire, in an extremely nervous and uneasy mood, he pursed his lips, grabbed a piece of green magma liquid that was like a solid entity, and slowly pulled it out of the green flame.

"Swallow!"

There was a slight tremor in the old voice. Yao Lao tried hard to stay calm. The next step was the most dangerous step in swallowing the strange fire.

This kind of rare item with destructive power can make a strong man unable to live or die, let alone devour him whole.

The cave suddenly became quiet. Xiao Yan's face was full of hesitation and struggle. Yao Lao remained silent and did not speak, quietly waiting for the decision of the young man in front of him.

At this moment, Yao Lao frowned and looked outside the cave. He felt three auras rushing towards here at a very fast speed.

"Guhe of the Gama Empire, friends inside please come out and see us!" A gentle and arrogant voice came from outside the cave.

"Gu He. Yunlan Sect's Dan King Gu He?"

When Xiao Yan heard this, a sharp look flashed in his eyes. Thinking of the scene in the Xiao family's hall more than two years ago, the hesitation and struggle in his heart suddenly disappeared.

"I'm busy!" Yao Lao's cold voice sounded. This was the critical moment. No one cared who you were, let alone that you were from the Yunlan Sect.

"The effect of the Blood Lotus Pill is running out! If you don't seize this opportunity, you will have to go collect herbs again. Xiao Bai is not here, so I don't know when I will be able to collect them again!"

Seeing Xiao Yan's expression, Yao Lao knew that he had made his choice. A gratified smile appeared on his old face, and he said softly:

"Don't worry about the outside world. They are just three Dou Wangs. If they know what's good for them, just leave! If they have any inappropriate thoughts, I will take care of them!"

As he spoke, a fierce look emerged in Yao Lao's eyes. As a sixth-rank alchemist, it was obvious why Gu He came here. He must have come for the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire.

"Gu He is sorry to come here because I have something important to discuss with you. Thank you for taking the time to meet me!" Gu He's slightly deep voice sounded again.

Yao Lao stared at Xiao Yan as he swallowed the green magma in his hand. He was very nervous. When he heard the chattering outside, he became furious.

"I already told you, I'm busy! Get lost!"

A word "roll", carrying unparalleled soul power, created ripples in the air and burst out from the cave.

"Hmph!" X3
Three muffled groans were heard outside the cave.

"Fighting Emperor!"

"He is not just an ordinary Dou Huang!"

Yan Shi and Feng Li behind Gu He were horrified and looked towards the cave with fear.

"This is just a warning. If you continue to pester me, I will not hold back. Get out of here!" Yao Lao shouted harshly.

"We are no match for Lao He right now, let's go back first!" Feng Li said softly with a serious expression.

"Lao He, Lao He, are you crazy?" Seeing that Gu He didn't respond for a long time, Yan Shi couldn't help but walk forward.

Gu He was very excited, his lips trembling slightly, and he murmured, "This is... This is a strange fire!"

"Didn't you sense it a long time ago?" Yan Shi frowned and asked in confusion.

"No, no. This is not... No... It's another kind!" Gu He's eyes lit up and he spoke a little incoherently.

"What's this and that? And what's wrong with you?" Yan Shi had never seen such an expression on Gu He's face.

As the only sixth-rank alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire, he has always been very arrogant and indifferent.

"You mean, you felt another kind of strange fire?" Feng Li seemed to understand what he meant.

"Yes! Its color is eerie white, and it's chilling to the bone. This is the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, which ranks eleventh on the list of strange fires!" Gu He calmed down a little at this point, and continued:
"What I sensed before was the original strange fire from the underground magma space, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire! I didn't expect that after searching for so many years, I didn't even see the shadow of the strange fire, but I could sense the aura of two kinds of strange fire here!"

"Let's leave first!" Yan Shi's eyes flashed and he winked at Gu He.

"Okay!" Gu He looked at the cave reluctantly, and he and the two of them turned into streams of light and disappeared.

Yao Lao felt relieved when he sensed that the aura outside was fading away. Now was not the time to get into conflict with them. If it had an impact on Xiao Yan's swallowing of the strange fire, he would regret it forever!
"Xiao Yanzi, you better hold on tight!" A trace of worry flashed across Yao Lao's eyes. With his spiritual power, how could he not know about the little movements of those people outside?
It seems that they are just retreating temporarily and have not given up.

With Gu He's power, he might be able to summon strong men soon, and then we'll be in trouble!
