Towards the Path of Heaven

Chapter 83

The Fire Cave was a famous and unique place in the Tianji Sect. The Fire Cave not only produced the Hundred Years and Thousand Years Essence Flame, but it was also a place for cultivators to cultivate.

As the name suggests, the Fire Cave is filled with scorching underground magma and the air is extremely hot. However, such a vile place would produce spiritual energy similar to fire. As long as one absorbed this spiritual energy into his body, one could use it to purify his spiritual energy, but it could even purify his physique.

This was especially true of cultivators who cultivated fire-type spiritual techniques or cultivators whose physiques tended towards the heat. Cultivating in the Fire Cave would be more effective.

It was unfortunate that the Southern Region only occupied 30% of the Fire Cave Region, which was originally 50/50, while the Northern Region occupied the remaining 70. Due to this situation, the already crowded Fire Cave in the Southern Region became increasingly narrow. As a result, the frequency of student fights increased.

The top brass of the Southern Region were both angry and helpless about this situation. They could only hope that a strong disciple would appear and lead the Southern Region to reclaim this lost cultivation resource.

When Yan Chutian appeared in front of the Fire Cave, a wave of hot air scorched towards him. For a moment, he could not bear it and could only use his spiritual energy to block it.

As he gradually became familiar with this aura, Yan Chutian spread his spiritual energy. At this moment, he also saw the burning situation in the Fire Cave. In that short amount of time, he saw many figures entering the Fire Cave.

This situation made Yan Chutian vaguely feel that the process of finding the Thousand Year Essence Flame would not go smoothly.

However, after all, he still hurriedly entered the Fire Cave. As soon as he entered, waves of scorching hot air that were even stronger than the outside world swept over him. Yan Chutian's face immediately flushed red and he coughed.

"You seem a lot worse than the rumors. Did you really defeat Zhao Hong?"

While Yan Chutian was in a sorry state, a slightly soft and crisp voice sounded. Looking up, it was unknown when the beautiful figure appeared in front of him.

That beautiful figure had a very beautiful figure and a small appearance. Although her skin was not as white as an ordinary woman's skin and was dark in color, when paired with her face filled with fighting intent, it revealed a strange wild beauty that made people subconsciously want to try to conquer her. .

Seeing Yan Chutian turn his head, the young girl also stared back at him with wide eyes. Without the slightest hesitation, he said, "I'm Dong Puti. In the past, I was defeated by Zhao Hong, but ever since I became a candidate, I haven't had time to take revenge on him." I don't expect you to actually beat him."

Dong Puti briefly introduced himself, and Yan Chutian did not doubt him. This was because he saw this young girl looking sincere. His words flowed smoothly and did not seem to lie.

Hence, Yan Chutian directly said, "Sister Dong, equally."

However, before he could finish his sentence, Dong Puti snorted and said rudely, "Huh! I don't want to be polite with you. You defeated Zhao Hong, so it is meaningless for me to defeat him again. So, I only defeated you once!"

Before he finished speaking, Dong Puti's face was filled with vigor. The fighting intent in her beautiful eyes became increasingly stronger, as if she could actually attack at any moment.

This made Yan Chutian not know whether to laugh or cry. He was supposed to do a good deed, but he instead drew hostility from the other party. Seeing Dong Puti desperately wanting to attack, he hurriedly said.

"Senior brother Dong, please don't be rash. I came to the Fire Cave for some important business."

"God ... It's too late!"

Dong Puti strangely smiled. He immediately stomped on the ground lightly and raised his right hand to punch Yan Chutian. A whirlpool of Spirit Energy swiftly appeared in his right hand, accompanied by a faint flame. As a result, even the space around his fist seemed to be unable to withstand it, and distortions appeared around his jade fist.

His opponent attacked as he pleased. Despite being caught off guard, Yan Chutian could only directly counterattack. As his hand seal changed, a strand of pure Spirit Energy appeared and gathered in the middle of his palm. Finally, it collided with the Fire Jade Fist!

"explosion!"

The loud explosion was deafening. This huge movement naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding disciples. Their gazes fused together and locked onto the center of the explosion.

“Apparently Senior Brother Dong Puti!”

"He's a prodigy. In that short amount of time, he quickly rose to become a Holy Child Candidate. Who's fighting him?"

"That person seems to ... The new Holy Child candidate, Yan Chu!"

"Yan Chu?!"

"explosion!"

Yan Chutian took a few steps back, and a serious expression appeared on his face. Although Dong Puti's cultivation was only at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Stage, he was stronger than Zhao Hong. No wonder he had the confidence to defeat Zhao Hong.

Therefore also Yan Chutian felt troubled. If he were to fight with Dong Puti, the outcome would be hard to predict. Moreover, even if he won, he would expend a lot of energy. How was he going to find the Thousand Year Essence Flame today?

"This "Yan Chu really did not mind the matter. He had already fought with Senior Brother Dong."

"God ... Senior Brother Dong is not someone Zhao Hong can compare to. Today, this person will definitely suffer!"

"Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you defeated Zhao Hong? Today, I will tell you how big the heavens and earth are!"

The surrounding voices that carried a trace of incessant ridicule sounded. After all, they were all old disciples. Seeing a new disciple take center stage, they were unsightly. Naturally, they would rather see Yan Chutian hit the wall.

However, did the situation really change as they thought?

After Yan Chutian retreated, the swift attack he had imagined did not continue. Looking up, he saw that Dong Puti had stopped in the same place and slowly pulled his fist. He then unhurriedly said, "You can be considered to have some ability.

"You're not fighting anymore?"

Yan Chutian asked, puzzled. The question instantly made Dong Puti look like it would attack at any time. Only when Yan Chutian waved his hand did he withdraw his hand.

After withdrawing his hand, Dong Puti continued Yan Chutian's words and asked, "Why did you come to the Fire Cave?"

After hesitating for a moment, he felt that the girl in front of him was not the type of person to hide evil intentions, so he said, "I'm looking for the Thousand Years' Essence Fire."

"You're also looking for the Thousand Year Essence Fire?"

Dong Puti looked at Yan Chutian sympathetically and continued, "That person, Lu Yang, is also looking for the Thousand Year Essence Flame. Moreover, it was he who bought all the Treasures of Heaven and Earth. However, this seems not enough. He's already brought people into the depths of the Fire Cave."

"Lu Yang?"

"Lu Yang had stepped into the realm of Elixir. He was one of the Saints of the Southern Divine Region."

Dong Puti's words instantly made Yan Chutian's heart sink. How could he imagine that the Thousand Year Essence Flame he was looking for happened to be sought by Lu Yang?
