Eternal Life through Drawing Lots

Chapter 265: Chapter 263: Red Thunder Earth Fire Jade

Saint Fire Divine Realm.

Before the grand hall.

Since this was Fang Yang’s first time entering the Saint Fire Divine Realm to train and cultivate, he needed to take note of a few things.

At that moment, a deacon dressed in gray robes was explaining the key points of the Fire Realm to Fang Yang:

"You are a prodigy ranked in the top thirty of the Earth Ranking, so entering the Fire Realm to train will only cost you three thousand Merit Points."

"With your status, a Saint’s will shall silently watch over you as you venture through the Fire Realm, but do not use that as a license to act recklessly."

"Heh, good luck..."

Before long, Fang Yang strode out of the hall.

The Saint Fire Divine Realm was a Fire Dao Grotto Heaven, a minor world left behind by a Tier Eight Great Saint.

Within it were eighty-one levels of Fire Domain Wondrous Realms.

Each of these Fire Domain Wondrous Realms was home to countless Fire Beasts.

This place was a veritable holy land for Fire Dao Practitioners!

Flickering points of firelight.

The air was scorching hot.

Fang Yang now stood before a layer of azure light screen.

If he passed through it, he would enter the first Fire Dao Wondrous Realm.

’I wonder if the real-world Fire Realm is similar to the one in the bloodline’s Dream World...’ he mused, his gaze lowered.

Then, he stepped forward and passed through the azure light screen.

In an instant, a volcanic world billowing with black smoke appeared before him.

Here, Molten Crocodiles formed from azure flames raised their eyes one after another to gaze at him from afar.

"The first Fire Realm really is similar," he murmured, his pupils contracting slightly.

He ignored the flaming Molten Crocodiles and moved swiftly, passing through the second level, the third, and so on...

He was surprised to find that the Fire Realm in the real world almost perfectly matched the one from the Dream World.

However, his primary goal in the Saint Fire Divine Realm was still to reach the thirty-sixth level of the Fire Realm and obtain the Tier Five opportunity there.

His secondary goal was to collect as many Anomalous Flames from the Mortal Anomalous Fire List as possible to make his [Fire Domain Skill] even more formidable.

Therefore, he had been rushing frantically the entire way.

He moved like a gentle breeze and a swift thunderclap, coming and going in a flash.

When he reached the thirty-sixth level of the Fire Realm, he quickly discovered that there were more Cultivators here.

Among them were plenty of small teams in groups of three to five.

But no matter what, even though he was traveling alone, he wasn’t the least bit panicked.

His trump cards were more than sufficient, including the Autumn Wind Cicada Treasure Robe—which was like a suit of Resurrection Armor—and the Yimu Saint Lance, which carried the full-powered strike of a Tier Six Thunder Dao Saint...

Besides, his own combat power was exceptional.

The sky was crimson.

The earth was scorched black.

Fang Yang held the Crimson Purple Battle Lance as he walked slowly across a mountain range.

He had now reached the thirty-sixth level of the Saint Fire Divine Realm.

Just then, the Carp Eagle Illusion within his first Void Acupoint True Essence Sea suddenly began to hum.

In a flash, the Carp Eagle Illusion shattered and leaped forth, reappearing before him in the form of a Fire Eagle Illusion.

"SCREECH..."

The Fire Eagle Illusion let out a cry, flapped its wings, and turned to face southeast.

All Spirit Body Illusions possessed their own unique wonders.

For example, Ji Juyun’s Golden Toad Illusion could help find treasure.

The Fire Eagle Illusion also had other uses.

A thought struck Fang Yang, and he immediately followed its lead, setting off to wander.

Finally, following the guidance, he arrived at a high mountain cliff.

Standing on the cliff and looking down, all he could see was a patch of inky blackness, a bottomless abyss.

The place looked like the gaping, fearsome maw of some ancient great evil, inspiring dread in all who saw it.

’Well, I’ll be. It wants me to jump off a cliff to get the treasure, is that it...?’ Fang Yang was speechless.

But in the next moment, with a flap, he unfurled the Thunderfire Wings on his back and dove straight down.

A biting wind whistled past his ears, and the sound of wind and thunder boomed around him.

"SCREECH, SCREECH..." The Fire Eagle Illusion flapped its wings and cried out, the Fierce Flame it radiated growing ever more intense.

Along with its cries, Fang Yang suddenly felt as if he had arrived in an entirely new world.

This was no longer an inky-black maw, but a beautiful valley with clear waters and green mountains, as lovely as an eternal spring!

The only imperfection was that as Fang Yang arrived, the valley rumbled and Primordial Qi converged, unexpectedly materializing a Fire Beast out of thin air.

"ROAR..."

The Fire Beast bared its fangs and roared at the sky.

Having just appeared in the world, it was trying to intimidate Fang Yang into retreating.

It had the appearance of an azure Griffin, shaking its head and tail. Its wings were wreathed in azure flames, and its feathers stood on end like swords, making it look exceptionally ferocious.

This was a powerful Fire Beast whose aura was approaching the middle of Tier Five!

And behind it, a mysterious black treasure light was hidden, drawing Fang Yang’s attention.

A cold glint flashed in Fang Yang’s eyes. "It has no intelligence. It’s just a puppet."

With that, he tightened his grip and thrust forward, a flash of crimson light erupting from his spear.

The Griffin Fire Beast roared and channeled the power of raging flames to fight Fang Yang.

Instantly, a turbulent, majestic shockwave erupted, and the sound of their battle spread out from the bottom of the cliff.

Because of the Griffin Fire Beast’s unique nature, the sounds of battle grew louder and louder, attracting the attention of the teams outside.

’I can obtain the Tier Five opportunity. There will be some trouble, but no danger and no future consequences. Auspicious,’ a thought inexplicably surfaced in Fang Yang’s mind.

He snorted coldly, put more force into his technique, and pierced the Griffin Fire Beast with a single thrust of his lance, causing it to dissolve into pure Fire Essence Qi and return to the world.

Immediately, he rushed toward the treasure’s glow.

[Red Thunder Earth Fire Jade]

The Red Thunder Earth Fire Jade, from the outside, looked like a palm-sized butterfly.

Its entire body was fiery red, its form elegant. As it fluttered, it gave off tiny arcs of electricity, a sight so beautiful it made one forget the mortal world.

This was a fire-aspected treasure that also contained the profundities of the Thunder Dao, and it was as high as Tier Five.

Strangely, Fang Yang actually sensed a trace of Dao rhythm on this treasure that was similar to that of Chenri the Great Saint!

’With this, I can master the Magic and Divine Techniques from the Sewing Fire Bing Thunder Skill Department,’ Fang Yang realized, then snatched up the Red Thunder Earth Heart Jade and put it away.

After storing away the Tier Five opportunity, he didn’t leave in a hurry. Instead, he tightened his grip on his lance and squinted as he gazed up at the sky.

RUMBLE...

A quarter of an hour later, five figures descended from above, surrounding him completely.

It was a team from the Muri Clan!

"We were waiting for you up there, but you never came up? Heh, you damn bastard, so we came looking for you!"

"Such pure Fire Essence Qi... what an incredible treasure it must be."

"Wait, is that Fang Yang?"

"So what if it’s Fang Yang? We have Brother Tianxiu with us. We’re not afraid of him."

"Fang Yang, we’ve been waiting here for days! Why did you steal our treasure?"

The five of them were mounted on Fierce Beasts, each with a different expression.

They were now verbally attacking Fang Yang, one after another.

Not long ago, they had heard the sounds of battle.

That was why they had deliberately waited high above the cliff, intending to assess the situation before deciding whether to make a move.

Now, seeing all the signs that Fang Yang had obtained the opportunity, the flames of jealousy were stoked in their hearts.

Fang Yang might be in the top thirty of the Earth Ranking, but he was, after all, only a Tier Four Cultivator.

Their leader, Muri Tianxiu, on the other hand, was a Tier Five Peak expert and a top figure who had even entered the Celestial Ranking.

Between Tier Four and Tier Five, there was a massive barrier.

If Fang Yang’s cultivation were at Tier Four Peak, they would certainly have retreated, but the current Fang Yang was not.

’Fang Yang, what will you do?’ At that moment, the Saint’s will peeking in on this place, "Master Lanwen," watched with anticipation.
