Chapter 2333

Afterwards, the few of them also chatted casually for a while, getting to know each other.

The more they talked, the more Huo Xuan sensed that Jun Xiaoyao's conversation was extraordinary, his horizons even far higher than his own.

He was, after all, the noble son of a secondary ultimate power.

But facing Jun Xiaoyao, he felt he was only slightly stronger than a mud chicken.

The two were not on the same level of rank and standing.

As a result, this instead made Huo Xuan hold a few points more respect for Jun Xiaoyao.

Huo Xuan also said that when the time came for Feng Luohan's birthday banquet, they could go together.

Afterwards, Jun Xiaoyao and Huo Ling'er also departed.

"Right, can we go to that Half-Immortal Fire place for tempering?" Jun Xiaoyao said.

"Master, you're too impatient, aren't you? Not going to bond with your disciple first?" Huo Ling'er said.

"Is it that important?" Jun Xiaoyao said.

Huo Ling'er gave Jun Xiaoyao a resentful look with her eyes.

She also knew that the reason Jun Xiaoyao agreed to come was mainly for that Half-Immortal Fire body tempering.

She brought Jun Xiaoyao, heading toward the center of the Blazing Sacred Tree.

In the center of the Sacred Tree, there was a massive flame gate, as if cast from fire copper gold crystal.

Atop the gate, a red-robed old man, small and shriveled like a walnut, sat cross-legged.

A pair of long flaming eyebrows, seeming ready to ignite. "Grandpa Huo Qiang."

Seeing this old man, a smile appeared on Huo Ling'er's pretty face, and she called out sweetly.

"Hehe, so it's little Ling'er who's come. Do you need to borrow the Sacred Tree Ancient Fire for cultivation?"

Seeing Huo Ling'er, that old man named Huo Qiang also revealed a trace of doting smile on his face.

Huo Ling'er is the Fire Clan's little princess, and also an existence doted on by all; she is very well-liked by the Fire Clan's elders.

"Mhm, but it's not me, it's my master!" Huo Ling'er said.

"Oh?"

Huo Qiang looked at Jun Xiaoyao beside Huo Ling'er. His old eyes revealed a trace of surprise.

Jun Xiaoyao sensed Huo Qiang's gaze. However, he naturally could not probe anything out.

"A high-level Quasi-Emperor……" Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.

As a secondary ultimate power, the Fire Clan's foundation was not bad, using a Quasi-Emperor expert to guard the important ground.

But for the current Jun Xiaoyao.

A Quasi-Emperor was just that.

Even a high-level Quasi-Emperor, in his eyes, held not the slightest deterrence.

"Huh……"

Discovering he actually could not see through Jun Xiaoyao, a strange color flashed in Huo Qiang's old eyes.

He even felt a faint sense of danger from Jun Xiaoyao.

This was shocking.

How could this young man before him possibly bring him danger?

Huo Qiang thought, perhaps this white-robed young master had some secret on him.

However, since he was someone Huo Ling'er brought, he could not pry to the bottom of it.

"Little Ling'er, are you sure you want to give this precious spot to this young friend?" Huo Qiang said.

The Fire Clan's Half-Immortal Fire, the Sacred Tree Ancient Fire, even within the Fire Clan, only the most core clansmen have the qualifications to enter.

And there is also a limit on the number of times.

This move of Huo Ling'er's is not small.

"Of course!" Huo Ling'er said without the slightest hesitation.

She is not that kind of fussy, hesitant personality.

Jun Xiaoyao saw this, and his expression also held a trace of gentleness

and softness.

Although this Huo Ling'er has always had impure motives, plotting against him.

But in the end, she is still a pretty good girl.

Jun Xiaoyao thought briefly, then said: "This senior, may I ask if there is another way to enter?"

"Master, you……" Huo Ling'er looked at Jun Xiaoyao.

"Taking up your spot wouldn't be too appropriate."

"But……" Huo Ling'er still wanted to say something.

Jun Xiaoyao waved his hand

【empty line in source — preserved as empty translation】

Elder Huo Qiang then said: "Another way — can you produce something that would move my Fire Clan?"

Although Jun Xiaoyao is the person Huo Ling'er fancies. But after all, he is not a Fire Clan member, but an outsider. Letting him enter for no reason would also be against the rules.

Jun Xiaoyao thought for a moment, raised his hand in a beckoning gesture, and sent out a cluster of flame.

It was precisely the Tuo She Ancient Emperor Flame that Jun Xiaoyao had signed in for earliest.

"Huh?"

A glint appeared in Elder Huo Qiang's eyes. "This fire is not bad."

The Fire Clan loves nothing more than gathering all the fires under heaven.

This is greatly beneficial to their cultivation.

For example, Huo Ling'er, who possesses the Holy Body of Fire Spirit, can enhance her cultivation by swallowing and refining flames.

"However, just this one cluster of fire is not quite enough," said Elder Huo Qiang.

Seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao once again summoned another cluster of fire.

As this cluster of fire appeared, four-colored blazing flames rose and surged, transforming in the void into the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise — four fire spirits of the four symbols.

"This..."

Elder Huo Qiang's eyes narrowed, and his breathing became slightly hurried.

"This is the Four Symbols True Fire, formed by fusing flames of four attributes, capable of condensing the four fire spirits of the symbols," said Jun Xiaoyao.

This Four Symbols True Fire previously had some effect on him.

But now, the effect is not particularly significant.

Like the flame of Lord Gudi Tuoshe, it is almost useless — tasteless to consume.

Even if he gave it away, Jun Xiaoyao would not feel the slightest regret.

Moreover, his Chaotic Azure Lotus Body can, in time, condense Chaotic Fire.

That would far surpass the Four Symbols True Fire.

"Good, it will do!"

Elder Huo Qiang nodded.

Jun Xiaoyao gave him two types of flame, whose value was already sufficient.

"Master, I feel I haven't helped you much," said Huo Ling'er, her interest seemingly low.

Jun Xiaoyao obtained this opportunity on his own, without relying on her.

She constantly feels she has broken her word.

"It's fine; this cost means nothing to me."

"Perhaps later, when I come out, I'll give you a small gift," Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.

Only then did Huo Ling'er smile.

But she also wondered what gift Jun Xiaoyao could give her.

Afterwards, Jun Xiaoyao passed through this gate and entered the interior of the Blazing Sacred Tree.

After he entered, Elder Huo Qiang said to Huo Ling'er.

"Little Ling'er, where did you find this young master of yours? He indeed gives off a very mysterious feeling..." said Elder Huo Qiang.

As a high-ranking quasi-emperor, his perception is also not ordinary.

Yet he has never seen anything like this — a young junior whose depths he cannot fathom at all.

"Right, right, Ling'er's judgment is quite good, though the master's origins are indeed unclear."

"Ling'er met him on the Wanxing Battlefield..."

Inside the Blazing Sacred Tree, the air is filled with the essence of Li Fire, simultaneously accompanied by vigorous vital essence.

Generally, wood fears fire.

But this Blazing Sacred Tree is an exception, its interior filled with various kinds of scorching flames.

Naturally, these have no effect whatsoever on Jun Xiaoyao.

He ventured deep within.

Finally, he saw a cluster of bright fire.

This cluster of fire glowed bright yellow, like a small sun, illuminating the interior space of the sacred tree.

Within the fire, numerous runes surged forth.

Moreover, a faint immortal intent wove around it, giving a sensation of scorching heat upon the soul.

"This is the half-immortal fire, the ancient fire of the sacred tree..." Jun Xiaoyao observed the ancient fire of the sacred tree.

He had previously experienced a cluster of immortal fire obtained from the Gods' Stele.

However, because it was not a fire seed, its energy dissipated after being exhausted and then vanished.
