Chapter 669: Chapter 666: Blazing Sky Sacred Fire!_1
At first, he didn’t think so, and just assumed that Li Ruoxiang would not consider his opinion. After all, compared to the Green Lotus Sect, he was still in a weaker position, so why would Li Ruoxiang think about his ideas? Even if she got the treasure, what could he, Yang Chen, say or do?
It should be known that this treasure was even better than the Silver Dragon Scissors, and it was something the Green Lotus Sect could hardly afford with half of their accumulated resources.
But who would have thought that Li Ruoxiang would simply agree to give it to him?
He really underestimated Li Ruoxiang as a woman!
No, to be more precise, he was accustomed to human nature.
He had been harmed by Hua Wanru, thinking that all women were unreliable, but now it seemed that women were different from each other, and Hua Wanru could not represent all women. For example, Li Ruoxiang was an upright and principled woman, a woman who was clear about right and wrong!
“Don’t worry, the ownership of this treasure belongs to you, Yang Chen. I, Li Ruoxiang, will not steal it from you.” Li Ruoxiang casually threw down these words, and then focused her attention on Mu Zhijiao again.
At this moment, Mu Zhijiao was still hesitant, which made Li Ruoxiang unhappy: “What, Mu Zhijiao, are you going back on your word?”
“That won’t happen. How could we in Huangsha City ruin our own reputation? Sect Leader Li, please bring your people with me.” Mu Zhijiao sighed, ultimately not daring to make the decision to go back on his word.
He knew full well that if he did, it would spell the complete ruin of Huangsha City’s reputation!
He was clear about what was more important and what was less important.
Seeing Mu Zhijiao saying so, Li Ruoxiang led several elders and Yang Chen together, and they all left with Mu Zhijiao.
Mu Zhijiao, accompanied by a few people from Huangsha City, said respectfully with a smile: “Sect Leader Li, the treasure we have placed in a very secret place, which is a bit remote. I hope you don’t mind.”
“I understand.” Li Ruoxiang responded, not finding it strange.
Some treasures, such as Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasures, had high spirituality. In order to make their spirituality more abundant when not in use, they needed to be placed in a space that suited them. Over time, the effectiveness of these treasures might even improve.
Thus, Mu Zhijiao led Yang Chen and the others through many twists and turns, eventually bringing them underground.
As they went deeper inside, the temperature increased rapidly, from slightly hot at first, to burning hot, and finally scorching hot.
This made Yang Chen frown, wondering what kind of treasure Mu Zhijiao was taking them to see, for the environment around them was composed of magma. The deep pits and walls were all filled with boiling magma flowing around, it was a shocking sight.
If this magma was ordinary magma, it would be fine, but clearly, it was not ordinary magma! If one were not careful, even martial artists who came into contact with it would suffer some damage.
Only after a cup of tea’s time had passed did Mu Zhijiao stop in a magma cave underground.
Immediately after, everyone stopped before a huge magma pit.
In this pit, the flames produced by the magma were shooting upwards, but it was not these flames that caught everyone’s attention. Rather, it was a seed wrapped in layers of magma and fire!
Yang Chen looked at the seed and couldn’t help but be attracted to it.
Others couldn’t tell, but he could.
This seed was unmistakably a Seed of Strange Fire!
“It’s actually a Strange Fire!” Yang Chen never expected this.
After all, he thought that Mu Zhijiao would bring him to see a Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure.
“It’s actually a Strange Fire!”
“A Seed of Strange Fire!”
The elders of the Green Lotus Sect were also not lacking in discernment, and they quickly deduced that it was a Seed of Strange Fire.
“As you can see, this seed wrapped in magma is indeed a Seed of Strange Fire. And this environment is created by the Strange Fire Seed itself.” Mu Zhijiao explained without any omissions.
When it came to Strange Fire, Yang Chen was very interested, and he began to examine the seed closely. The more he observed, the more shocked he became, and in an instant, his eyes widened as if he had seen something incredible.
“This!”
At the same time, the elders of the Green Lotus Sect frowned: “Mu Zhijiao, is this Strange Fire the treasure you want to give us?”
“Wasn’t it supposed to be a Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure?”
“Exactly!” The elders glared at Mu Zhijiao one by one, not afraid of Huangsha City at all. They had been promised a Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure better than the Silver Dragon Scissors, but now it was just a Strange Fire. Of course, they were not happy about this and felt that they had to get to the bottom of the matter!
It’s not that the Strange Fire wasn’t valuable, but they simply had no use for it. Moreover, their understanding of Strange Fire was limited, and they generally believed that it was more useful to alchemists.
Mu Zhijiao now felt like crying but had no tears to shed. He also wanted to take out the treasure, but he didn’t have it!
Now questioned by a group of Green Lotus Sect elders, he could only respond with an apologetic smile: “Well…everyone, I didn’t want it to be like this either, but there was a mishap. This Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure, our Huangsha City, is temporarily unable to take it out. The Strange Fire is not bad either, it’s worth even more than the Silver Dragon Scissors. Can’t you all make do with it?”
“Mu Zhijiao, it seems like you never intended to give us the Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure in the first place!”
“That’s right, Mu Zhijiao, you set the rules, and now you’re the one going back on them, what do you take our Green Lotus Sect for?”
Li Ruoxiang was also somewhat unhappy, but seeing Yang Chen’s eyes shining with enthusiasm, she asked him: “Yang Chen, what do you think? The decision is up to you, so how it goes is completely up to you. It seems that you have a unique understanding of fire, are you interested in this Strange Fire?”
Seeing that the decision was in Yang Chen’s hands, Mu Zhijiao hurriedly looked at him, unable to reason with these female elders.
For a moment, Yang Chen didn’t answer.
He appeared calm, but in reality, he was already quite shocked inside.
He had been thinking about what this Strange Fire could be, since just a single seed could create an environment of magma. This fire’s power was really extraordinary.
So, he had been thinking for a while, and finally got a clue.
It was precisely when he got a clue that he was overjoyed.
As the saying goes, there is no need to put effort into looking for things that come easily!
This Strange Fire was none other than the Blazing Sky Sacred Fire!
What is the Blazing Sky Sacred Fire?
Back then, when Yang Chen was under the control of the Tiandu Emperor, he had obtained the Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure, the Blazing Fire Spirit Brush. However, the brush was a rather awkward Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure. It had no power on its own, and other than crafting prohibitions, it only had the power to tear apart space, but even that it could not exercise at present.
By the time it could be used, Yang Chen probably wouldn’t need the Blazing Fire Spirit Brush anymore.
The only thing that could bring out the Blazing Fire Spirit Brush’s power was the Blazing Sky Sacred Fire, which was also the ink required by the Blazing Fire Spirit Brush!
