Chapter 176: Tang Valley

"Master, do we really have to go down?"

After putting on the Polar Cold Marrow Jade, although they were no longer attacked by the scorching heat, looking at the bottomless abyss-like rock valley, Xia Yang and Xia Xue were both hesitant.

You know, continuing to go down, besides having to suffer the threat of different fire, they would also be affected by demonic energy.

Baili Changfeng actually had no bottom in his heart, but people from the Demon Clan had sneaked into the center of the array eye, and he had to go to stop them. Moreover, there were Demon-Suppressing Guards guarding outside the military formation, and they couldn't withstand the soul attacks of the Demon-Suppressing Guards.

With a Nascent Soul cultivator present, plus some magical treasures he carried, they should be able to support them to reach the center of the array eye.

Seeing that his two disciples had the intention of retreating, and Hua Changxi's expression couldn't be seen, Baili Changfeng could only say: "Do you know what place is below?"

Hearing this, Hua Changxi, Xia Yang, and Xia Xue all looked over simultaneously, not understanding why Baili Changfeng would ask this.

Xia Yang: "The center of the array eye."

Baili Changfeng: "This center of the array eye was called Tang Valley in ancient times."

Xia Yang and Xia Xue exclaimed simultaneously: "Below is Tang Valley?"

The two obviously knew about Tang Valley.

Xia Xue looked enlightened: "That's right, the place where the Fusang Divine Tree grows is Tang Valley."

Xia Yang's expression was somewhat excited: "Master, there are records in ancient books saying that there is a congenital hot spring bath in Tang Valley, which is the bathing place of the sun in the prehistoric period. Is this true?"

Baili Changfeng: "There is indeed a hot spring bath in Tang Valley, but whether it is the bathing place of the sun, I don't know. However, the hot spring bath is definitely a blessed place for fire-spiritual-root cultivators. As long as you can withstand the tempering of the hot spring bath, the quality of your spiritual roots will be greatly improved, and you might even be able to shape a fire spiritual body."

Hearing this, Xia Yang and Xia Xue couldn't remain calm.

They were fire-spiritual-root cultivators. Although the quality of their spiritual roots was good, compared to a fire spiritual body, it was definitely not worth looking at.

If they could shape a fire spiritual body, their cultivation talent would definitely be improved by a large margin.

Looking at his excited two disciples, Baili Changfeng poured a basin of cold water on them: "Since the legend says that the hot spring bath is the bathing place of the sun, the temperature inside is definitely not low, and not everyone can withstand the tempering."

Hearing this, the originally excited Xia Yang and Xia Xue immediately wilted.

Yes, they couldn't even withstand the different fire, so how could they withstand the high temperature in the hot spring bath?

Baili Changfeng looked at Hua Changxi: "The senior has powerful strength. After solving those six Demon Clan people, the senior can go into the hot spring bath to try it out. It will definitely be beneficial." Saying this was also to hang her with the benefits in Tang Valley, so as not to avoid her giving up halfway when encountering danger later.

Hua Changxi had been silent, listening silently to the conversation of the master and his three disciples. Hearing Baili Changfeng say this, she frowned: "Fellow Daoist Baili came specifically to stop Lu Yan. Are you all from the Artifact Saint Palace?"

Baili Changfeng's expression paused, not understanding why Hua Changxi would suddenly mention Lu Yan, but he still nodded: "Yes, Lu Yan and I are both direct disciples of the Artifact Saint Palace."

Hua Changxi: "The four great sacred sites are each responsible for suppressing an array eye. The Artifact Saint Palace is responsible for suppressing the array eye here."

Baili Changfeng nodded.

Hua Changxi: "Those few Demon Clan people were brought by Lu Yan, which means that the instability of this array eye comes from the internal turmoil of the Artifact Saint Palace. I'm not wrong, am I?"

Baili Changfeng's expression changed, but he still nodded again: "What does the senior want to say?"

Hua Changxi: "Since the instability of this array eye is caused by your internal turmoil, solving those few Demon Clan people is your duty. I just happened to run into you by chance. I can help you for the sake of being fellow humans, but solving those few Demon Clan people is not my responsibility."

Hearing this, the expressions of Baili Changfeng and the three changed.

Hua Changxi continued: "Tang Valley is full of different fires. Those few Demon Clan people dared to go down, so they must have something to rely on. Fellow Daoist Baili must be mentally prepared."

"What is going on below Tang Valley, no one knows. All I can do is help you when I have the spare energy. Solving those few Demon Clan people still depends on you. You must not pin your hopes on me."

An unstable array eye will threaten the human world. Since she encountered it, she would certainly not ignore it, but the primary responsibility for dealing with the Demon Clan attendants still had to be distinguished.

Baili Changfeng was directly pointed out by Hua Changxi for his little thoughts, and his expression was somewhat awkward: "That is of course."

Xia Yang's expression was somewhat angry: "Protecting the array eye is everyone's responsibility. If demonic energy spreads to the human world, the senior cannot escape and will also be affected. I originally thought the senior was a person of high character, but I didn't expect you to be a selfish person who only cares about yourself."

Hua Changxi heard him say this, her expression turned cold, her spiritual pressure was released, and she directly pressed Xia Yang to the ground: "What kind of person I am is not for you to comment on."

Seeing this, Baili Changfeng immediately blocked in front of Xia Yang, carrying the spiritual pressure for him, and said urgently: "Senior, my disciple spoke without thinking. Please don't take it to heart."

Hua Changxi looked at Baili Changfeng until fine sweat seeped from his forehead before she withdrew her spiritual pressure and sneered: "I have seen too many such cowards who like to push responsibility to others. If I really cared, I would be afraid of dirtying my hands."

Xia Yang heard Hua Changxi call him a coward and was very unconvinced. He wanted to defend himself, but seeing his master and junior sister glaring at him, he could only close his mouth indignantly.

Baili Changfeng did say a word for his disciple: "My disciple was just anxious and confused."

Hua Changxi didn't buy it: "He can care about the world, but he shouldn't transfer the responsibility of caring about the world to others. If others don't do as he wishes, he puts big labels on them and belittles them. Does he really think everyone else is a fool?"

Baili Changfeng didn't speak.

Hua Changxi gripped the Floating Light Sword tightly, suppressing its vibration, took the Polar Cold Marrow Jade, and said: "I have no obligation to protect you. After taking your things, I will be responsible for opening the way later. I will try my best to block the different fire. As for other dangers, you can take care of yourselves."

Saying that, she walked forward.

Seeing this, Baili Changfeng glared fiercely at Xia Yang and then hurriedly led his two disciples to follow.

Without a Nascent Soul cultivator opening the way, they really might not be able to go to the bottom of Tang Valley.

Previously, climbing up from outside the volcanic crater, the colors of the different fire were mainly red, orange, and yellow. But now, going from the top of the volcanic crater to the inside of the volcanic crater, after walking through the flat periphery and starting to go down, the first wisp of different fire that appeared was green.

"Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple?"

Red, orange, and yellow different fires appeared, and Hua Changxi still felt it might be a coincidence, but now that green different fire appeared, she couldn't help but think of the order of natural light colors.

Once the green flame appeared, a sense of closeness welled up in Hua Changxi's heart.

Alchemy fire is green. Although this green flame is not alchemy fire, it carries a strong herbal fragrance. Using it to assist in alchemy can definitely improve the quality of alchemy. For alchemists, it is undoubtedly a rare treasure.

Just like before, Hua Changxi first subdued a wisp of green flame and incorporated it into her dantian, and then helped the Floating Light Sword absorb the green flame.

Going down all the way, it was indeed as Hua Changxi guessed. After the green flame, it was cyan flame, after the cyan flame was blue flame, and after the blue flame was purple flame.

When incorporating the blue flame into her dantian, Hua Changxi felt somewhat arduous, and subduing the purple flame took her a lot of effort.

Once the purple flame entered her dantian, the sea of Qi immediately boiled, showing signs of instability, and Hua Changxi clearly felt a stinging pain from her dantian.

At this time, the Five Finger Mountain seal, which had been hiding in the sea of Qi, flew out, and then, the vast power like a mountain radiated out, suppressing the boiling and surging sea of Qi.

The sea of Qi returned to calm, and the pain in the dantian slowly disappeared. ===== CHAPTER 177 =====
