Hunyuan Immortal Sect

Chapter 431 Clean and neat
The majestic white tiger roared as it approached Song Xian, its passage leaving trails of white flames that scorched the surrounding area, turning a hundred-foot radius into a sea of ​​white fire, where massive fireballs were annihilated one after another.

Enveloped in white flames, the fireballs formed by the fire meteors shattered one by one.

With Song Xian's current strength, he doesn't really take the White Bone Extreme Flame seriously. Right now, when he uses Flame Meteor, the power of a single spell is as high as 1550 points.

In other words, he only needs to use Flame Meteor twice to kill White Bone Extreme Flame.

However, his purpose was to absorb and refine the White Bone Extreme Flame for his own use, so after the White Tiger devoured all the fireballs, he did not continue to use the Flame Meteor attack.

Instead, he clasped his hands together and used the Flame Wall spell to protect himself.

As each flame transformed into a shield, it enveloped him.

Only then did Song Xian feel at ease and begin to use the Profound Heaven Fusion Fire Technique. Crimson light burst forth from his palms, enveloping his entire body.

Once the Profound Heaven Fusion Fire Technique was unleashed, all the surrounding white flames were drawn in, merging into the light emanating from his body like moths to a flame.

The white tiger was also attracted by the white bone flame's true form and involuntarily moved towards it.

Wan Huaming naturally noticed the abnormality of the White Bone Extreme Flame, and he was horrified.

This was the first time such a thing had happened since he acquired this white, strange fire.

This crimson lantern was certainly not made by him, nor did the White Bone Extreme Flame belong to him.

He obtained this item during a treasure hunt many years ago. Over the years, he has escaped danger several times thanks to the extreme flames of the white bones inside the crimson lantern. He never expected to encounter someone who could control this flame today.

Seeing that the White Tiger, the true form of the White Bone Extreme Flame, was involuntarily heading towards the opponent, he immediately manipulated the crimson lantern to retract the white flame.

Seemingly summoned by some force, the white tiger, which had originally headed towards Song Xian, turned back.

Just then, Han Yuan, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally made his move.

During their fight, he remained a detached observer. This was not because he was shirking his duties, but because Song Xian had instructed him not to interfere after the opponent used the White Bone Extreme Flame.

Fearing that his intervention would directly obliterate the White Bone Extreme Flame's true form, she decided to wait until she herself had used her cultivation technique to absorb the White Bone Extreme Flame before making her move.

The two had previously fought together against someone who possessed the Xuanluo Yin Fire, and had experience fighting side by side, so they had a certain level of understanding.

Han Yuan had personally witnessed him use the Profound Heaven Fusion Fire Technique to absorb the Profound Luo Yin Fire, and now he saw him use the same technique again to absorb the white flames. The white giant tiger, just like the giant snake of the Profound Luo Yin Fire back then, was hovering between the two.

Seeing this, Han Yuan decisively took action. He transformed into a golden giant ape, and his golden fist, the size of a sandbag, struck towards Wan Huaming.

Attracted by Song Xian's Xuan Tian Fusion Fire Technique, Wan Huaming was unable to control the White Bone Extreme Flame freely. Seeing the golden giant ape attacking, he clapped his hands together, and two golden giant hands appeared to meet the giant ape.

With a deafening roar, the giant ape's golden fist struck the giant palm, causing the golden palm to shake violently with a single blow.

Wan Huaming clapped his hand at his waist, and a majestic black wolf appeared, about ten feet in size, a fourth-tier spirit beast, the Riftwind Wolf.

With a howl, the black wolf instantly conjured several powerful gusts of wind, which attacked the golden giant ape.

The three of them fought so fiercely that the entire underground palace trembled, with rocks flying everywhere. The azure light screen was also distorted and deformed by the residual force of the attack.

With a few blows, the golden giant ape shattered the golden giant hand with its golden fist, which was as big as a sandbag. Facing several gusts of wind that swept in, the giant ape neither dodged nor avoided them, and let out a roar.

In an instant, a huge shockwave emanated from in front of the giant ape, surging outwards in all directions like a tidal wave.

The several gusts of wind gradually twisted and deformed under the impact of the tidal wave-like spatial ripples. After a short while, the wind gradually dispersed.

The lingering effects of the spatial ripples, like layers of ocean waves, continued towards Wan Huaming.

With a flash, the Rending Wind Wolf stood in front of Wan Huaming, forming a huge black barrier in front of it to resist the impact of spatial ripples.

The golden giant ape leaped high into the air and punched the black barrier, shattering it with a single blow.

The Rending Wind Wolf howled and pounced on the golden giant ape, and the two began to fight hand-to-hand.

The Crack Wolf was clearly no match for the golden giant ape; the two were not even in the same league. Soon, the black giant wolf was punched away by the golden giant ape and crashed into the stone wall, spitting blood as it fell to the ground. But it still fearlessly leaped up and pounced on it.

This is the benefit of a spirit beast that has signed a soul contract; it will faithfully carry out its master's orders until it dies in battle.

If a spirit beast had not been bound by a soul contract, it would have already fled by now if it had been raised using ordinary methods.

Wan Huaming's eyes flashed, and his spiritual power continuously poured into the crimson lantern. The runes on the lantern's surface spun faster and faster, and the White Tiger, the true form of the White Bone Extreme Flame, gradually broke away from Song Xian's Xuan Tian Fusion Fire Technique and headed towards the crimson lantern.

However, it was clear that the Wind-Splitting Wolf was getting more and more seriously injured under the attacks of the golden giant ape.

Wan Huaming finally made a decision and decisively gave up control of the White Bone Extreme Flame.

The Rending Wind Wolf was a spirit beast he had raised for many years. It had finally reached the fourth rank, and he was even more reluctant to part with it than with the White Bone Extreme Flame.

After all, the Rending Wind Wolf still has room for improvement, while the White Bone Extreme Flame has its upper limit.

Moreover, even if the White Bone Extreme Flame were reclaimed, it wouldn't resolve the current crisis, because the opponent also has a way to control the White Bone Extreme Flame, and this fire wouldn't be able to harm them at all.

If the Rending Wind Wolf dies, it will damage his mental state, making the situation even more unfavorable.

Therefore, he immediately stopped pouring spiritual energy into the crimson lantern. Then he clasped his hands together, his spiritual energy surged, golden light shone brightly around him, and a majestic phantom appeared behind him.

As the crimson lantern lost its spiritual power, the runes flowing on its surface gradually stopped, and the White Bone Extreme Flame itself moved towards the crimson light that Song Xian had condensed.

Wan Huaming was enveloped in golden light, which enveloped his imposing figure as if the two had become one.

The next moment, a glint seemed to flash in the eyes of the majestic phantom. The phantom gradually solidified, its features blurred, yet it still exuded an aura of dominance over the world.

The imposing figure slowly drew the long sword from his waist and slashed down.

In an instant, chaotic sword energy enveloped the area within a hundred feet, and the streak of sword light, like a shooting star, pressed down on the golden giant ape with immense power.

The golden giant ape roared, and spatial ripples surged toward the sword light like a tide, only to be cleaved in two by the sword light as easily as tofu.

Han Yuan's figure shifted instantly; the golden giant ape transformed into a black giant tortoise, its body radiating a brilliant, dark light that coalesced into a black circular shield. Simultaneously, its head and limbs retracted into its shell. The surrounding stone walls were ravaged by the chaotic and disordered attacks of the sword energy, sending rocks flying.

The sword light struck the black circular shield that had formed around the giant black tortoise. There was no sound of them clashing, but rather ripples that spread outwards in all directions.

The ripples spread across the surrounding stone walls, making a loud thud and sending stone chips flying.

With a sharp shout, Wan Huaming unleashed an even more dazzling sword aura. The black circular shield surrounding the giant tortoise gradually twisted and deformed under the pressure of the sword light, and after a short while, it shattered like a curtain of water.

"Go to hell!" Wan Huaming roared, a mad gleam in his eyes.

The sword light shattered the dark circular shield that had formed around the giant tortoise, striking its back.

With a deafening roar, the entire underground palace seemed to collapse.

The giant tortoise remained motionless, its head and limbs retracted into its shell.

With a soft cracking sound, a crack finally appeared on the surface of the tortoise shell. However, the crack only appeared on the surface and did not penetrate inside.

However, the sword light, as if its energy had been exhausted, dissipated into light under this attack.

Wan Huaming's expression changed, his eyes shifting from wild glee to astonishment and terror.

He hadn't expected that his strongest attack would only leave a shallow crack on the surface of the tortoise shell.

What exactly is this Xuan Turtle? Its shell is so tough.

Just as he was in shock, the Xuan Turtle's form changed again, transforming into a white jade spider.

With a spit, it unleashed a torrent of pure white silk threads, crisscrossing and shooting towards him.

Wan Huaming retreated rapidly, his spiritual power surging within him. Behind him, a towering figure flashed with a sharp light in his eyes, drew his longsword from his waist once more, and slashed down with it.

The sword light met the snow-white silk threads, slicing them into pieces and shattering them.

Han Yuan's form changed, transforming back into the shape of a giant tortoise.

Upon seeing this, Wan Huaming's mind stirred, and he swept his sword light across, slashing at Song Xian, who was performing the Profound Heaven Fusion Fire Technique. At this moment, Song Xian had completely absorbed the White Bone Extreme Flame into the crimson light around him and was refining it.

The sword light swept across and struck the flame shields, producing a series of crackling sounds. One after another, the flame shields shattered under the attack of the sword light.

As the sword light attacked Song Xian, Han Yuan immediately launched an attack. The giant tortoise condensed into huge water-shaped tornadoes around its body, which rushed towards Wan Huaming. Then, the Xuan Turtle flashed and arrived in front of Song Xian, blocking the sword light attack for him.

Seeing the water tornado approaching, Wan Huaming had no choice but to withdraw his sword light and attack the water tornado.

As the two sides clashed, the azure light barrier beside them was affected and impacted by various spells. After a period of distortion, the light barrier quietly shattered.

The interior was completely empty except for the array altar and a few array flags.

Seeing this, Wan Huaming was angry, but not surprised.

As early as when Song Xian used the Profound Heaven Fusion Fire Technique to absorb the White Bone Extreme Flame, he realized that this was a trap, and that the other party was specifically targeting him; otherwise, how could such a coincidence happen?

The moment he appeared, these two Foundation Establishment Stage 7 cultivators arrived one after the other, both dressed in robes and carrying hats to conceal themselves so thoroughly. One of them was even someone who specifically countered his White Bone Extreme Flame.

He just couldn't understand who these two people were and why they were going to such lengths to deal with him.

“Fellow Daoists, I have no grudge against you, so why must we fight to the death? If someone hired you, I am willing to pay double the price. If you have your eye on anything I have, just name it, and I will give it to you without hesitation. How about we call it quits?”

Having lost the White Bone Extreme Flame and with the Rending Wind Wolf also severely injured, Wan Huaming knew he was no match for his opponent after this exchange. Moreover, there was another person skilled in fire-attribute magic who had not yet made a move.

Once he has freed up his hands, his situation will only get worse and worse. If he continues to fight, he will only face death. Therefore, he begged for peace.

Han Yuan ignored him, his figure shifting freely between the golden giant ape and the black giant tortoise. Wan Huaming gradually found himself only able to parry, unable to retaliate.

He certainly wanted to break out of the underground palace, but the entrance was still guarded by Song Xian. To leave, he had to first break through the huge wall of flames.

Han Yuan continued his relentless attacks, leaving him no time to attack Song Xian.

The two fought fiercely in the underground palace, smashing the surrounding stone walls to pieces.

On the other side, Song Xian was still wholeheartedly absorbing the White Bone Extreme Flame. As the white giant tiger's body merged into the crimson light, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and the veins on his head were clearly visible bulging.

Only after the White Bone Extreme Flame was completely absorbed did he slowly stand up. Then, he clasped his hands together and cast the Flame Meteor spell. Flames emerged from his palms and transformed into a huge fireball that shot out.

Wan Huaming was already struggling in a one-on-one fight, completely suppressed by Han Yuan. Now, with Song Xian added to the mix, he was even less of a match.

Under the powerful offensive of the two, he naturally could not withstand it. Seeing that he was about to run out of energy, Wan Huaming lost his composure and started cursing hysterically. In the end, he was smashed in the head by the golden giant ape that Han Yuan had transformed into.

Seeing Wan Huaming's head explode and he fall to the ground, Song Xian finally breathed a sigh of relief. In order to obtain the White Bone Extreme Flame, he had been planning this for several years, starting from getting close to Wan Yuesheng.

This underground palace was, of course, something he had already ordered people to dig long ago, just waiting to lure the enemy into a trap. The intelligence Wan Yuesheng obtained, as well as the dead cultivator, were all part of the whole plan.

The cultivator Wan Yuesheng encountered who was killed by the lightning-attribute talisman was just putting on a show for money; he never expected that the pursuers would actually kill him.

The golden cloth in his hand was also stuffed into his fist by the person who was hunting him after his death. He did this to reduce Wan Yuesheng's suspicion and make the whole thing seem more real.

As he had expected, Wan Yuesheng quickly deciphered the hidden information within the golden cloth after obtaining it, and soon arrived at the island following the treasure map's guidance.

When he arrived, Song Xian and Han Yuan were already waiting there. After witnessing his attack on the defensive light barrier of the formation fail, the two finally saw Wan Huaming arrive.

“Fellow Daoist Han, this crimson lantern is mine, you don’t mind, do you? I don’t need anything else, it all belongs to you.”

After taking Wan Huaming's personal storage bag, Song Xian examined its contents. In addition to spirit stones, there were some rare materials, but these were not what he needed. His only target was this treasure that could absorb strange fire, so he immediately took it out.

The fact that we were able to take down Wan Huaming so easily this time was thanks to Han Yuan's help. Without him, it would have been impossible to do so smoothly. In order to show goodwill and sincerity, we gave him all the other items in our storage bag.

After dividing the loot, the two quickly left the area.
