Chapter 264: Your Life
After the large group of people left, only four people were left outside the cave where Tong Mingshan was in seclusion.
Wu Jinliang sat on the ground, stretched one leg, bent one leg and crossed his arms, playing with the wind scales in his hand out of boredom.
With the wind scales in Haoji's hand, Shi Chun threw his own wind scales to Wu Jinliang, asking him to keep them as a backup so that he could meet them faster.
The two disciples of the Siding Sect who were healing were really concentrating on treating their burns, and the main task of keeping watch was only for Lao Changtai.
"Why do the several suns, big and small, in the sky seem to be motionless?" Wu Jinliang, who had been looking at the sky out of boredom from time to time, suddenly asked the air.
He had heard that there were places with more than one sun, and some continents also had those.
A disciple of the Siding Sect who was sitting cross-legged in meditation nearby opened his eyes slightly and replied, "A day here is quite long, equivalent to three days in the general timekeeping method."
Wu Jinliang: "So are we going to use the ones here or outside for the 49 days?"
The disciple of the Four Ding Sect felt that this person was just trying to make conversation, so he replied, "Of course it's the normal time outside."
Wu Jinliang muttered, "One day is equal to three days, a little more than sixteen days."
He took a sip of the ice lamb from time to time. The boring waiting process did not last too long. About two hours after Shi Chun and others had left, a faint sound was heard from the closed cave.
Wu Jinliang and others turned around to look.
With a crash, the cave stones were overturned, and a figure appeared in the dust. It was none other than Tong Mingshan. He looked energetic and refreshed, which showed that he had indeed gained a great benefit.
"Brother Wu." Tong Mingshan took the initiative to greet him.
Wu Jinliang got up and asked immediately: "What's going on?"
Tong Mingshan himself couldn't help laughing, "It's done!"
Bang! Wu Jinliang clapped his hands and cheered, then said, "Come on, show it, show it quickly."
Tong Mingshan found it funny and did not refuse. As he wished, he flipped his palm and soon a ball of red flame emerged from his palm, which then turned into a dragon circling in his palm. Controlling it was as easy as moving one's fingers.
After showing off for a while, it was retracted into the body.
Wu Jinliang clicked his tongue and punched Tong Mingshan in the chest.
Lao Changtai was no exception and patted Tong Mingshan on the back, "You are such a good guy, you really have to thank the boss later."
Speaking of this, Tong Mingshan was particularly moved, and seemed to not know what to say. Finally, he blurted out, "I don't need to thank you for your kindness."
Even now, he still felt like he was dreaming. He never thought that he, a person who was expelled from the sect, would actually have such an opportunity.
He naturally knew who to thank, and he also knew that the boss had found an excuse to give him the divine fire so that An Wuzhi and Zhu Xiangxin would have nothing to say.
The two disciples of the Four Ding Sect who were standing nearby were also full of envy. One of them asked, "I heard that after absorbing the divine fire, the power contained in the divine fire will also improve your cultivation. Is that true?"
Tong Mingshan: "The real improvement is the realm. The fire element realm in the body has broken through to the high martial arts realm, but the improvement in cultivation is not that big."
Another person said with great envy: "Now that your realm has been raised to the right level, it will be easy to improve your cultivation. Go back and find some time to retreat. Your cultivation progress will surely be rapid."
Tong Mingshan was also happy, "I hope so. Hey, where's the boss?"
Wu Jinliang chuckled, "The boss is destined to be a hard worker. He has found out about the divine fire and is going to find a second divine fire for you. He asked us to protect you here."
"Ah, there's news about the divine fire again?" Tong Mingshan was very surprised.
He calculated the time with his fingers before coming out of retreat, and knew that he had only absorbed the divine fire for most of the day. He didn't expect to receive news so soon. Wasn't it said that the divine fire was very difficult to find?
Wu Jinliang: "Okay, come with me to find the boss."
He turned around and said to the other three, "Brother Lao, you stay with them and continue to heal here. Mainly, wait for news from the other three routes. If anyone comes to pass on the news, just let them know where we are going. When everyone has been informed, you can also go and meet us."
"Okay, leave this to us, you can go ahead and don't worry." Lao Changtai agreed readily, and the other two also agreed.
No one is willing to take risks easily, and there is no benefit in doing so. It is much safer to hide here, and it is near the exit. If anything really happens, you can get out in time.
Having said this, Wu Jinliang then drove the wind scale and took Tong Mingshan straight to the destination...
A huge metal world, although covered with a lot of dust, but through some exposed surfaces, you can still understand its true background beneath the dust.
In this metal world, a vast metal forest grew. The trees, big and small, had no leaves, and the concave and convex shapes looked like demons dancing wildly.
Some trees were fallen down, and some branches looked like fallen antlers. There were also many round holes on the ground, which were so scarred that it was beyond description.
Shi Chun and others who were hiding on the highest peak of the marginal area and spying felt an inexplicable and huge shock through the flickering dark metallic light.
Due to the interference of the background color, Shi Chun's right eye could not see very far, and he didn't know where the people from Hongyun Castle were.
The contact signal has been set up at the highest peak, but the undercover agent has not shown up yet. I don’t know what’s going on.
After waiting for a long time, the undercover agent did not show up, but Wu Jinliang and Tong Mingshan showed up instead.
When the two of them found the man on the mountain, everyone basically ignored Wu Jinliang. Xu Anchang was the first to ask Tong Mingshan, "Did it work?"
Tong Mingshan nodded, "Success." Xu An breathed a sigh of relief. The task above had a good start.
Wu Jinliang came up to Shi Chun and asked, "Why are you lying there without moving? What's going on now?"
Shi Chun: "Wait for someone to come and meet me so that I can find out the situation at Hongyun Fort."
Wu Jinliang: "Why hasn't he come yet after waiting for so long? Do you want us to sneak in and check it out first?"
Shi Chun raised his chin towards Xu Anchang and said, "Brother Xu, you should be on the safe side and make a decision after you understand the situation."
This was also true, so Wu Jinliang kept silent and looked towards the metal world.
It was not known whether it was a coincidence or the arrival of Wu Jin and the other man brought luck, but soon, figures flashed at the foot of the mountain, and someone came out from the iron forest, and soon slipped in front of everyone.
The visitor was a middle-aged man wearing dark red clothes. He looked honest and kind, not like a demon.
Shi Chun opened his right eye to observe the visitor and felt a little disappointed. Without the magic flame, his energy and blood would be wasted.
The man was a little surprised to see so many people suddenly, especially when he saw Wu Jinliang and others carrying gourds. His sense of surprise immediately soared several levels.
When Xu Anchang saw them, he asked, "Why did you come just now?"
The middle-aged man said, "We were digging a hole before and asked someone to go in and search, but we didn't see any signal from the connection."
Xu Anchang: "Did you find it?"
The middle-aged man shook his head, "I haven't found it yet."
Shi Chun interrupted, "My name is Shi Chun. May I ask your name, brother?"
The middle-aged man immediately looked at Xu Anchang, with an obvious tone of inquiry.
Xu Anchang smiled bitterly in his heart. They all know which sect you are from and have seen you before. If you really do something wrong, it doesn’t matter whether you hide your name or not.
He immediately nodded slightly.
The middle-aged man then replied: "Next week, Wuxian, Master... Brother Chun's name is well-known and has been heard for a long time."
Shi Chun groaned, "It's just a little bit of a bad name, not worth mentioning. It turns out to be Brother Zhou, nice to meet you, nice to meet you. May I ask, are you sure you saw the divine fire before?"
Zhou Wuxian shook his head and said, "I didn't see it. One of my fellow disciples saw it, but he didn't see it clearly. He only saw a flash of fire in a hole. Everyone heard the sound and rushed to look for it, but they found nothing. They have been looking for it until now."
Shi Chun: "Didn't see clearly? Could it be that you saw it wrongly?"
Zhou Wuxian: "It's unlikely. Brother Shichun may not know that those holes are all pitch black, and it's very obvious whether there is fire or not. Another thing is that the holes in this metal world should be burned by high temperatures. And those iron trees should be molded by high temperatures, and you can see metal wax dripping on the ground. According to various signs, there should be a divine fire here!"
Hearing that there was a divine fire, Xu Anchang became more alert and asked, "Will we be discovered if we go in and look for it?"
Zhou Wuxian hesitated, as if he didn't know how to answer. After thinking for a while, he said, "This metal area is estimated to be about ten miles in radius. When we explored it from high altitude, we found that the ground had suffered a huge impact. It should be formed by a huge meteorite falling here.
We have been searching for a long time but have not found any trace of the sacred fire. After meeting and discussing, twenty of us dispersed within a ten-mile radius to monitor and wait until dark. If there is a fire, it will be easy to find. I am not sure whether you will be discovered if you sneak in. "
This means that the situation has been made clear to let them consider it on their own.
Shi Chun interrupted again, "Is Hongyun Fort much stronger than your Siding Sect? When you came here, didn't you bring any hidden magic weapons with you?"
He didn't believe that the Demonic Path would not provide any military support to this side. It was understandable that they couldn't find a suitable candidate to come in under the limited conditions, but it was a bit unreasonable to say that the Demonic Path could not get the magic weapon.
This was the reason why he had carefully planned the sneak attack on Feng Yaoyang. If the assassin had not been targeting his master Chun, he would have really wanted to take away Feng Yaoyang's Qiankun bag as well.
Xu Anchang: "We have magic weapons, and so do they. The biggest problem is that we are much weaker than them in overall strength. Once we start, we must be serious and not let them get away. That would be troublesome. It's best to do it at night so that they can't be seen easily."
Tong Mingshan and others were a little confused when they heard it, but Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang understood immediately that if they used magic skills, their identities as demons would be exposed.
Shi Chun thought for a moment and said, "Alright, let's go to night. Now, it's still early and it's still early. One day here is equivalent to three days. Let's not waste time and go to the ice field first."
Night time was just what he wanted, as he could use the special ability of his right eye to look down from a high altitude.
Xu Anchang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Brother, do we need to rush like this?"
He was unwilling to waste even this little bit of time. He really didn't expect that the person sent by the higher-ups would be so dedicated and hardworking. It seemed that he was more dedicated than him. It seemed that the higher-ups chose this person for a reason.
Before Shi Chun could speak, Wu Jinliang suddenly said, "That is to say, the people of Hongyun Fort have never seen the appearance of the divine fire here, is that what you mean?"
Everyone looked at him, and Shi Chun asked, "Jinliang, what do you mean?"
Wu Jinliang raised his chin towards Zhou Wuxian, "You answer me first, okay?"
Zhou Wuxian looked at Xu Anchang again, and after he nodded in agreement, he replied, "I really haven't seen it. I just saw a fire."
After getting the confirmation, Wu Jinliang said: "Chuntian, since you haven't seen it before, it's easy. We can make a fake divine fire. As long as we can lure them away, this place will be ours to do whatever we want."
Shi Chun rolled his eyes and said, "The divine fire is fake? With your work, do you think everyone else is blind?"
Wu Jinliang chuckled, "I'm really not good at this job, but there are people who can. Master, don't be in a daze, I can't do it, but you can. Show them your divine fire."
