Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Leaving Qingmu Peak, Bei Qingtang instructed Xu Zhangqing: "Junior Brother, summon your Broken Moon Flowing Frost; there are too many people now, my travel tool cannot hold them all."
Xu Zhangqing naturally did not refuse, immediately summoning it to float in the air.
"Broken Moon Flowing Frost?"
"It looks so familiar!"
"A male cultivator actually uses this kind of travel tool?"
Everyone except Zhao Chengdao had strange expressions upon seeing it.
This thing is like a Flower Bud Boat, mostly used by female cultivators.
Male cultivators' travel tools come in all shapes and types.
Under Bei Qingtang's lead, Zhao Chengdao, Liu Ying, Su Wanqing, Yun Shu, Jiang Che, Tieshan, and Shuilianlian all entered the Broken Moon Flowing Frost.
Everyone rose into the air and flew toward Chi Huo Peak.
Along the way, Bei Qingtang took out Bi Huo Dan, one for each person: "This is the first batch of rewards; as long as you persist, you will get more."
Xu Zhangqing was seeing Bi Huo Dan for the first time, so he held it in his hand to observe carefully.
The size of a dragon eye, the pill body was round, plump, and full.
Overall it was not red, but red gold.
It seemed to emit a glazed luster.
The touch was warm with a hint of coolness, yet not discordant.
Moreover, it did not emit even a trace of scent, which was truly magical.
From this, it could be seen that the talent and ability of the alchemist who refined it were absolutely top-notch.
Jiang Che said: "It is said that Bi Huo Dan refined by different flames have different effects; this red gold color is definitely top-grade among its kind."
Bei Qingtang said proudly: "Produced by Dongting Immortal Sect, naturally it will not be shoddy."
"It was personally refined by Wang Yangyin, one of our three top-tier alchemists."
Because of the rarity of the profession, alchemists, talisman masters, and array masters who reach a certain height are famous not only internally but also outside.
Upon hearing that the Bi Huo Dan was refined by Wang Yangyin, everyone's eyes lit up.
Xu Zhangqing naturally knew this person and had even met him once.
He still remembered that not long after he had just met Senior Sister Yu, he attended a Pill Appraisal Meeting held by the Dan Pavilion of Di Huo Qu and happened to see the other party walk up after refining pills.
Since it was refined by this person, the quality was definitely unquestionable.
Therefore, Xu Zhangqing immediately put it in his mouth, but did not swallow it, nor did he chew it.
Instead, he activated his mana to decompose it bit by bit, channeling all the medicinal power contained within onto himself.
Although this could not completely immunize him against damage from flames and high temperatures, as his cultivation realm increased, his own fire resistance would grow stronger.
Since they were going to a place entirely of fire, no one dared be careless; everyone except Bei Qingtang absorbed it.
No one knew how long passed, but everyone inexplicably became irritable.
Immediately after, a scorching breath surged in like a heat wave.
Because they had absorbed Bi Huo Dan, no one was harmed.
Xu Zhangqing and the others looked out and saw flickering red firelight in the distance; as they drew closer, the mass of fire grew larger and larger.
Upon careful observation, one would discover that within this mass of fire was not a mountain peak at all, but the enormous corpse of a bird.
The corpse's structure was clear, still maintaining its original shape.
Even dead, it still covered the sky and blotted out the sun, terrifying beyond measure.
Even more, it actually had... three legs.
The trunk formed the main peak, the wings spread into secondary peaks.
The three legs supported the mountain base, the skull condensed into the peak top.
Flesh and blood, after ten thousand years of change, gave birth to many fire beasts.
Such as fire rats, Hudou, Chi Yan Beasts, and birds like Fire Crows.
Seeing this scene, many people were speechless, unable to say a word.
Xu Zhangqing couldn't help but transmit his voice: "Eldest Senior Sister, this isn't something picked up by our Dongting Immortal Sect's first Sect Master, is it?"
Bei Qingtang did not answer, but glanced at him sideways, looking as if she couldn't be bothered to deal with him.
Xu Zhangqing smiled awkwardly and secretly speculated in his heart: "Could it be that the first Sect Master of Dongting Immortal Sect is a Lao Liu?"
The entire Chi Huo Peak was divided into multiple districts.
Left Wing
Right Wing
Dan Huo District
Ling Huo District
Skull Forbidden Zone
Thoracic Residence District
Xu Zhangqing's group, under Bei Qingtang's guidance, soon arrived at the Right Wing.
As soon as everyone approached, they saw a hundred-zhang-large thing that looked like some kind of "palanquin" at first glance, entirely made of giant Qi Yan Wood.
"What is this thing?"
"Could it be that our task this time is to attend to this?"
"It looks like the mount of some Great Power!"
Not only was Xu Zhangqing curious, everyone was very concerned.
Bei Qingtang introduced: "This is the Jingyuan Mountain Yu; its specific function is inconvenient to disclose. For the next period of time, you must ripen the Qiyan Wood."
The faster the time, the richer the rewards obtained."
Upon hearing this, the crowd looked at each other.
Some people were very excited.
Some people were very hesitant.
As for Xu Zhangqing, in his heart he only wanted to leave here, not wanting to wade into muddy waters.
Bei Qingtang said indifferently: "I have a matter to leave for; you may do as you please."
Then she rose into the air and flew toward the other side of Chi Huo Peak.
At an extremely fast speed, she disappeared from everyone's sight.
Xu Zhangqing and the others looked at each other in dismay, somewhat at a loss.
Fortunately, everyone was at the "Golden Core Stage", and they quickly adapted to the atmosphere and environment here, one after another walking toward the Qiyan Wood.
Different people learned different Cultivation Methods.
However, without exception, all could judge Lingti.
Xu Zhangqing casually touched it, then looked at the system, and sure enough information popped up.
Qiyan Wood
Spirit Qi Sufficient
No Damage
Not Yet Mature
The content was not much, it could be called brief.
This was the first time Xu Zhangqing had encountered this kind of situation in his many years of planting and cultivating.
Su Wanqing observed while opening her mouth to say: "That is to say, we just need to ripen it here, right?"
Zhao Chengdao said with a solemn expression: "The Wood Spirit Qi here is barely better than nothing; we can only rely on our own magic power to ripen it, the consumption is not generally large."
Jiang Che, on the other hand, took it lightly, with a face full of indifference: "Anyway, as long as the value of what is given next exceeds the Bi Huo Dan, it's fine."
Xu Zhangqing thought for a moment: "How about this, let's not act together, but split into two batches.
After one batch finishes, the other batch continues to start, what does everyone think?"
Zhao Chengdao praised: "Not bad, a good idea."
Regarding this idea, no one refused, and they even agreed quite a bit.
Soon, the eight people split into two batches, four people per batch.
Xu Zhangqing, Zhao Chengdao, Jiang Che, and Tie Shan grouped together.
Liu Ying, Su Wanqing, Yun Shu, and Shui Lianlian grouped together.
Taking advantage of the time they were ripening, Xu Zhangqing strolled around the Jingyuan Mountain Yu.
The ground was everywhere with jumping fire mice, and they were not afraid of people at all, even a bit familiar.
At this time, Zhao Chengdao came over and asked in a low voice: "Xu Ling Shi, tell me the truth, is the Dongting Immortal Sect planning something big?"
Xu Zhangqing froze for a moment, then wanted to speak but stopped: "This..."
Zhao Chengdao wore an expression of 'as expected', and said with certainty: "There are records in the Longhu Immortal Sect that the Jingyuan Mountain Yu is a powerful Magic Tool specially for purifying filth and evil forces!"
