Chapter 40 Breaking into the Grandmaster's Mansion
"how is it going?"

As soon as he left the palace, Su Youqian couldn't wait to ask Liu Chengfeng. It was clear that he was terrified of Empress Qiuchi, like a mouse before a cat.

Despite his dissolute lifestyle, Su Youqian behaved properly within the palace.

"It's done."

"It's done? What conditions did my aunt set?"

Su Youqian knows Empress Qiuchi all too well; she won't act until she sees the benefits.

"Take away from the fire."

"Remove the fire—"

Su Youqian screamed, drawing out the sound.

Do you know what "Li Huo" is?

"Isn't it just the flames of the River of Fire?"

Liu Chengfeng certainly didn't know what Li Huo was, but he was still confident.

"Brother, it's not that simple. To put it nicely, Li Huo is the flame in the Li Huo River. To put it bluntly, Li Huo is the remnant flame of the Li Huo God General."

"It's impossible to get it."

Su Youqian couldn't help but smile wryly and shake his head.

"You're finished. You can't retrieve the fire. If you go back empty-handed, your aunt will surely chop off your head."

"No one can get it?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, since the founding of Qiuchi Kingdom, no one has ever been able to obtain it. This is the remnant flame of the God of Fire, which has never stopped flowing, but it cannot be obtained."

Su Youqian told Liu Chengfeng about the situation with Li Huo.

The so-called "Li Huo" refers to the fire that the God of Li Huo used to draw heavenly thunder and condense earth fire.

When the spiritual vein dojo was finally completed, a small amount of divine flames remained underground, flowing endlessly and even flowing into the River of Fire.

However, no one in Qiuchi Kingdom has ever seen the Li Fire, nor has anyone ever separated the Li Fire from magma or fire spirit energy.

Empress Qiuchi's request for Liu Chengfeng to retrieve the Li Fire was simply an impossible task.

“With the ancestral hall activated and the Li Huo appearing, the people from the Grandmaster’s Mansion will definitely try to obtain it. The Li Huo will greatly benefit the Grand Marshal’s White Tiger Six Divisions Technique and White Tiger Heart Method, so he won’t miss it.”

"It seems that obtaining the Fire of Li will not be easy."

No matter how difficult it is to get the fire, Liu Chengfeng must go and retrieve it.

"It's not just difficult; even if you could actually obtain the Blazing Fire, the Grandmaster's Mansion might not let you go."

"Who cares, let's take it first."

With little time to spare, Liu Chengfeng rushed towards the Grandmaster's Mansion.

"Really?"

Su Youqian was busy keeping up.

"Otherwise, is there a better way?"

Su Youqian couldn't help but frown. He didn't have a better solution either. If he had a better solution, he wouldn't have asked his aunt for help.

"Senior, I would like to borrow some of the Fire of Departure. Could you lend me a hand?"

On his way to the Grandmaster's Mansion, Liu Chengfeng sought help from the stone lion.

"Hmph, you want to drink spiritual energy."

In his mind, the stone lion offered Liu Chengfeng terms.

“Alright, once this is over, I’ll guide your spiritual energy.”

Liu Chengfeng readily agreed.

"Bullshit! You're not royalty, your word doesn't count. Do we need you to forcefully draw in spiritual energy?"

The stone lion is bound by a restriction, preventing it from forcefully absorbing spiritual energy; otherwise, it would have absorbed it long ago.

"I can help you."

The ancient tree spoke timidly, but the stone lion remained silent, ignoring Liu Chengfeng.

Liu Chengfeng was overjoyed and quickly thanked the ancient tree before heading towards the Grandmaster's Mansion.

As Liu Chengfeng rushed towards the Grandmaster's Mansion, Empress Qiuchi also fulfilled her promise.

With Empress Qiuchi's permission, Lady Chen made a move against the young leader of the Denglong Holy Sect.

"How can the Holy Sect of Ascending Dragon be allowed to run rampant on the territory of Qiuchi Kingdom?"

At Qiyun Sect, Lady Chen ascended into the sky, flicked her sleeves, and a fierce wind arose, roaring like a dragon, as she charged towards Ma Xian, the young leader of the Denglong Holy Sect.

"Grandma, I am acting on the orders of the Divine Dynasty to arrest criminals."

Ma Xian, standing atop the golden gourd, was startled. He slashed with his sword, unleashing a thousand-meter-long beam of light that leveled a mountain peak.

Ma Xian, a young genius, even surpasses the talent of Ye Yitian.

However, compared to Lady Chen, there was still a considerable gap, and after a few moves, she fell into a disadvantageous position.

"Get down—"

Lady Chen's long sleeves billowed, and her hidden blades flowed like a surging river, knocking Ma Xian down from the sky.

Ma Xian was no match for him and turned to flee. Lady Chen did not pursue him and stayed behind to guard Qiyun Sect.

A fierce and thrilling battle ensued, with the overwhelming power of the Great Dao suffocating the Qiyun Sect. Ma Xian's defeat and retreat brought a sigh of relief to everyone.

When Liu Chengfeng and Su Youqian arrived at the Grandmaster's Mansion, they did not rush in immediately. Instead, they stood on a high place outside and observed the mansion from afar.

From a distance, one could see that an array had already been formed on the Lihuo River.

There are three bridges over the Lihuo River. Ye Yitian and Ye Yiqing each occupy one bridge, while Cheng Nan occupies the middle bridge.

An array was formed beneath their feet, drawing magma from the Fire River. The magma was extracted from the river and then separated through the array.

After separation, the magma surged towards Cheng Nan, where Cheng Nan used fire to separate the magma and carefully sift it.

In front of Cheng Nan was an ancient crystal urn, only the size of a head, with an array inside.

This urn was used to hold fire that had been separated from the fire.

However, despite Ye Yitian and his team's painstaking efforts to peel away the magma, they were unable to extract any fire.

The powerful figures of the Grandmaster's Mansion all know that the magma flowing from the ancestral hall must contain the remnants of the Flame of Departure.

Extracting fire from so much magma is more difficult than sifting gold from a sea of ​​sand.

"Cheng Nan truly deserves to be called the best alchemist in Qiuchi Kingdom. His mastery of the fire control and flame splitting technique is truly excellent."

Watching Ye Yitian and the others busy themselves from a distance.

Ye Yitian and her brother made a rough selection of the magma, which was then finely sifted by Cheng Nan. Without a doubt, Cheng Nan's fire control technique was superior to theirs.

When it comes to controlling and dividing flames, no matter how skilled a cultivator is, they cannot compare to an alchemist or a swordsmith.

They are the true masters of fire.

Even Ye Ziyang entrusted Cheng Nan with the important task of extracting the Li Huo.

While Ye Yitian and his group were busy, the experts from the Grandmaster's Mansion guarded the four directions to prevent any disturbance. In addition, Pan Nuolin from the Ascending Dragon Holy Sect was watching the excitement from the sidelines.

Liu Chengfeng opened his Dome Eye and looked at the River of Fire. Within the Dome Eye, he could see the Fire that others could not see.

There is indeed fire within the magma of the Fire River. It is as thin as a hair and is integrated with the magma, making it impossible to separate. "How can we extract it now? Leaving aside how to extract the fire, we can't get it just because the Grandmaster's Mansion is guarding it."

Seeing the scene before him, Su Youqian was at a loss.

"I go--"

Liu Chengfeng barged directly into the Grandmaster's Mansion, which immediately filled the mansion with murderous intent. The powerful figures of the Grandmaster's Mansion drew their swords and set their sights on Liu Chengfeng.

At this moment, Zhicheng gave the order, and the experts from the Grandmaster's Mansion rushed forward.

"Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth. We are here on His Majesty's orders."

Su Youqian was busy following behind Liu Chengfeng.

Su Youqian's words prevented the experts from the Grandmaster's Mansion from making any rash moves.

"What do you want to do?"

Ye Yitian stopped what she was doing and looked at Liu Chengfeng.

"Take away from the fire."

Liu Chengfeng said this, but his eyes were fixed on Pan Nuolin.

"To extract the fire from the earth? You think you can do it? Only those with unparalleled and profound fire-controlling techniques can extract the fire from the earth. Do you think you can do it?"

Cheng Nan sneered and stopped what he was doing, his eyes revealing a ruthless glint.

"Can you do it? If you can, I won't need to activate the Thunderfire Divine Board."

"you--"

Cheng Nan was so angry that his face turned ugly; bringing up this matter was like reopening old wounds.

"The fire is not for you to take. Leave now."

Ye Yiqing felt uneasy, but secretly thought that Liu Chengfeng might be able to obtain the Li Huo.

Liu Chengfeng ignored Ye Yiqing and set his sights on Pan Nuolin.

“You are going to arrest me.”

Pan Nuolin had only come to watch the spectacle, but when he saw Liu Chengfeng approaching him, he burst into laughter.

"There's a road to heaven but you don't take it, there's no door to hell but you keep breaking in."

“I was just a guest, but you insist on courting death. Fine, I’ll take you down first, and then apologize to Senior Ye.”

"I'll kill you first, then I'll take the Li Huo."

Liu Chengfeng shouted loudly, and the Thunder Sound Staff was in his hand.

When the Ascending Dragon Holy Sect threatened him with the Cloud Sect, he killed the disciples of the Ascending Dragon Holy Sect.

“How dare you speak so arrogantly! I will cut off your hands and feet and then detain you as a living sacrifice in the divine court.”

Pan Nuolin roared, his body like an arrow, his sword like lightning, rushing towards Liu Chengfeng. His sword transformed into lightning, splitting into four, severing Liu Chengfeng's hands and feet.

Pannuolin was guided to the first level and practiced the Lightning Chasing Technique. When he used it, his body was covered in lightning.

The Light Chaser Sword was unleashed, its speed as fast as lightning chasing the light.

Pannuolin's mental cultivation methods and techniques are both of the lowest grade of the virtuous scroll.

He could travel 20,000 li a day and had a strength of 200,000 jin.

A swift and fierce sword strike aimed straight at the hands and feet, and by the time the sound rang out, it had already reached Liu Chengfeng.

What a fast sword! What a fierce sword!

"break--"

Liu Chengfeng roared, his five blows splitting the ground, his blood energy exploding, his inner cultivation circulating, one blow after another, all five blows executed in one breath.

The five sticks are combined into one, as if exploding with five times the force. The five sticks slam down, the air explodes, and the Thunder Sound Stick roars like thunder.

The stick struck the sword, one blow after another, with loud bangs and sparks flying.

Liu Chengfeng unleashed his speed and power to the limit, stacking each strike with frenzied intensity, matching Panolin's power and matching his speed.

In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged more than twenty blows. Pan Nuolin's sword was as swift as a flowing light, and his sword momentum was fierce, but he was still suppressed by Liu Chengfeng's staff momentum.

This scene left the experts from the Grandmaster's Mansion speechless. Faced with the experts who had been guided to higher levels, the experts from Baoshan were simply being crushed.

The fact that Liu Chengfeng and Pan Nuolin are now locked in a fierce battle is outrageous.

Liu Chengfeng's disadvantage was his weapon. Although the Thunder Sound Staff was good, it was far inferior to the Light Chaser Sword, which was forged from Pulse Gold.

After more than twenty moves, the Thunder Sound Staff was covered in wounds; if the fight continued, it would surely break.

"kill--"

Liu Chengfeng let out a long roar, and the Golden Dragon Heart Technique was pushed to its limit. Dragon scale phenomena protected his body, and his sword body flourished.

With a long roar, he opened his mouth and spat out sword energy, the sword light intensified, and he frantically smashed out the Thunder Cudgel in his hand, the Mountain Cudgel, the River Cudgel, and the Thunder Cudgel pouring down.

Pan Nuolin was shocked. He split his sword into hundreds of swords, forming a curtain of swords, and Yuan Ni appeared to protect his whole body.

The Flying Cloud Golden Sword Technique and the Nine Water Sword Pellet shot out instantly, piercing through the sword curtain. When the sword momentum ended, the Thunder Cudgel had already poured down wildly, slamming heavily onto Pannuolin's body.

Even with the protective primordial mud around his body, Pan Nuolin was still sent flying by the Thunder Sound Cudgel, spitting out blood.

"I'm going to kill you—"

Liu Chengfeng strode after him, letting out a long howl, still wielding the Nine Water Sword Pellet, the silver sword aimed at taking lives.

"Don't commit murder—"

Ye Yiqing, who was closest, shouted and rushed to the rescue.

Ye Yiqing raised her sword like a peacock spreading its tail, flames shooting up like a firebird soaring into the sky. With a sweep of her sword, she blocked the silver sword, shattering it and sending it crashing to the ground.

The Nine-Water Silver Sword is special; even if it is shattered and falls to the ground, it will return to Liu Chengfeng's body.

Although both are at the first level of the Guiding Realm, Ye Yiqing is much stronger than Pan Nuolin.

The Ye family's Fierce Beast Heart Sutra is a mid-grade rank in the Sage Scroll, while the Four Fierce Beast Techniques are a high-grade rank in the Sage Scroll.

Even if Ye Yiqing's Peacock Sword was only made of low-grade vein gold, it could still overpower Pan Nuolin.

Ye Yiqing's "Four Fierce Beasts Technique" is a refined version of the Fierce Bird Technique, with extremely intense fire, which is why she can shatter a silver sword with a single strike.

"Come again——"

Liu Chengfeng roared, the sea of ​​blood churned, divine blood surged violently, blood energy was endless, and spiritual energy roared incessantly.

His body was like a treasure mountain, his spirit like a raging dragon, his sword body was blazing, and his sword light burst forth.

The two innate mental techniques of Blood Sea and Treasure Mountain were pushed to their limits, causing Liu Chengfeng's blood energy and physical body to become violent.

Blood and energy surged violently, power soared, the physical body went berserk, and the sword blossomed.

With a long roar that seemed to tear through the air, and a chilling light flashing everywhere, one silver sword after another shot out, hurtling towards Ye Yiqing.

"break--"

Ye Yiqing was startled and cried out. Her sword flashed like a peacock spreading its tail, one strike after another, the sword as heavy as a mountain, flames raging.

Ye Yiqing has already built a sword mountain, and when the flames erupt, it's like a volcanic eruption.

They intended to use this mountain of swords to block Liu Chengfeng's relentless barrage of silver swords.
