Chapter 206 Flaming Heart Jade Liquid
Red Sand Valley is a dangerous place in Changfeng County. It is occasionally ravaged by fire, and the air is filled with fire poison, making it unsuitable for living beings. However, due to its extremely special environment, it occasionally gives birth to treasures that are rarely seen in the outside world.

"It should be here."

A hint of fatigue inadvertently appeared on his sallow face. Wearing a fire-resistant suit, Zhuang Tianyu crossed the barrier of the earth fire and arrived deep in the Red Sand Valley.

As one of only two disciples of the Zhuang family who had achieved the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, he should have been stationed at Wujin Mountain at this time, but instead, he secretly came here to avoid attracting attention.

“A few days ago, the fire in the Crimson Sand Valley erupted, bringing out some fire jade. Normally, this wouldn’t be anything special, as similar things have happened before. But this time, I noticed something unusual about these fire jade. If I’m not mistaken, this place may have been nurturing the Flame Heart Jade Liquid.”

With thoughts colliding in his mind and secret techniques activated, Zhuang Tianyu continued to search for his target.

With the death of Zhuang Tianxing, the only Qi Refining Perfection cultivator in the Zhuang family, the situation of the Zhuang family immediately deteriorated. Although he and Zhuang Tianci, both Qi Refining Great Perfection cultivators, struggled to hold on, the Zhuang family was able to stabilize the situation for the time being. However, as the Huangfeng Sect pressed closer and closer, Zhuang Tianyu knew that if things continued like this, the Zhuang family would be dragged down sooner or later.

It was precisely because he was clearly aware of this that he risked leaving Wujin Mountain and coming to Chisha Valley.

The most direct and effective way to resolve the predicament of the dealer and reverse the situation in Changfeng County is for the dealer to produce another Qi Refining Perfection cultivator. However, this is difficult and requires time and opportunity.

In addition, for the current dealer, if they can refine a top-grade magic weapon, it can alleviate their predicament to a certain extent and buy them more time. And this Flaming Heart Jade Liquid happens to be a good spiritual item that can help cultivators refine magic weapons.

At a certain moment, sensing the secret technique, Zhuang Tianyu took out a piece of fire jade the size of a head from a crack.

"Sure enough."

Holding the Fire Jade in one hand, Zhuang Tianyu was overjoyed as he watched the jade liquid flowing inside.

Ordinary fire jade is just a low-grade spiritual item with little value, and few Qi Refining cultivators would risk venturing into the depths of Crimson Sand Valley to search for it. But this Flame Heart Jade Liquid is different; it is a rare and precious item among first-tier spiritual items.

"With this treasure, I can refine the Flying Feather Sword again, and its advancement to a top-grade magic weapon will be just around the corner."

After confirming that everything was correct, Zhuang Tianyu suppressed his joy and immediately put the fire jade into his storage bag.

After doing all this and carefully observing to make sure nothing was missed, Zhuang Tianyu left without lingering any longer.

However, just as he was about to leave the Red Sand Valley, he vaguely sensed something was wrong. A gust of wind swept up, and a cloud of yellow sand rushed towards him.

"The Wanderer of the Yellow Sands? How could that be..."

His expression changed drastically, and Zhuang Tianyu immediately summoned his own magic sword to protect himself, unleashing streaks of sword light that tore through the gale.

At this moment, he was filled with surprise and doubt. He had naturally considered the Huang Feng Sect when he made this trip. One of the reasons he risked coming here was that he was basically certain that Huang Feng Sanren was still in seclusion and there was no sign of him coming out in the short term. He never expected that the other party would be waiting for him here.

Under normal circumstances, even if Huang Feng Sect discovers something is wrong and Huang Feng Sanren personally emerges from seclusion, it would be impossible for him to reach Chisha Valley and stop him in a short time.

At the same time, deep in the yellow sand, a figure slowly emerged. He was wearing a yellow robe, a green wooden mask, and had a full head of silver hair. His aura was very obscure. He was none other than Huang Feng Sanren, the leader of the Huang Feng Sect.

After the situation in Qingyuan County stabilized, he returned to Changfeng County. However, he did not return to Huangfeng Valley, but instead traveled alone, creating the illusion that he was still in seclusion.

In fact, it wasn't Zhuang Tianyu who first discovered the Flaming Jade Liquid, but him. However, he didn't choose to take it directly, but instead used it as bait to lure the Zhuang family. In terms of knowledge, he was even more insightful than Zhuang Tianyu.

And things ultimately unfolded much as he had predicted. After some time, he finally saw Zhuang Tianyu. "Stay."

Seeing Zhuang Tianyu break out of the encirclement, Huang Feng Sanren waved his sleeves.

In the next instant, grains of dark sand flew out from his sleeve, merging with the yellow wind and launching continuous attacks on Zhuang Tianyu. Each strike was powerful and heavy, making it difficult for Zhuang Tianyu to defend himself for a moment. This was the top-grade magic weapon, Thousand-Pound Sand.

As time went on, Zhuang Tianyu's disadvantages became increasingly apparent.

"No, if this continues, I'll be worn down and die here. The weakness we've found isn't huge, but we have no choice but to give it a try..."

Realizing something was wrong, Zhuang Tianyu no longer hesitated and took out a Fire Fiend Pearl directly from his storage bag.

These beads were obtained by the Zhuang family from the Qingmu family. There are three in total, and each one can unleash power comparable to the peak of Qi Refining. Zhuang Tianxing once activated one of them in Yanqiu to break through Jiang Chen's mist.

"Go!"

With the secret technique activated and a desperate determination in his heart, Zhuang Tianyu activated the Fire Fiend Pearl.

Sensing this change, Huang Feng Sanren's expression shifted slightly, and he immediately activated his magic to protect himself.

The next instant, blazing flames burst forth, and the flying sand and stones that had enveloped the area showed signs of dissipating. Zhuang Tianyu himself was also injured by the Fire Fiend Pearl, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and his already bad condition suddenly became even worse.

Even so, he did not hesitate at all and immediately summoned the mid-grade magic weapon, the Golden Wind Wings.

"go!"

Ignoring Huang Feng Sanren's actions, Zhuang Tianyu spread his golden wings and soared into the sky. Although the Fire Fiend Pearl was powerful, he did not expect to kill Huang Feng Sanren with just one Fire Fiend Pearl.

However, just as he was about to break free, a strange force locked onto him, making him feel as if he were carrying a small mountain on his back, unable to move.

"This is an Earth-Attracting Technique, you..."

Realizing something, he lowered his gaze to the ground, raised an arm with his five fingers spread wide, as if locking onto Huang Feng Sanren from afar. Zhuang Tianyu was filled with disbelief. At this moment, he finally roughly confirmed Huang Feng Sanren's identity.

Before he could think any further, Huang Feng Sanren pulled him hard, and an invisible force burst forth, causing him to plummet from the sky like a bird with broken wings.

At the same time, the flying sand and stones that had been broken by the Fire Fiend Pearl and were showing signs of dissipation started to operate again, directly enveloping the falling Zhuang Tianyu. This time, he had no second Fire Fiend Pearl to use.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the sandstorm dissipated, and everything returned to calm, leaving only Zhuang Tianyu's mangled body lying quietly on the ground.

"Having already lost one tooth and now having lost an arm, the dealer really can't pose any threat anymore."

Playing with Zhuang Tianyu's storage bag, Huang Sha Sanren gazed in the direction of Wujin Mountain, his eyes filled with profound contemplation.
