Chapter 9 Dialogue
"Run! Why have you stopped running?"
"You little thief, how dare you kill a member of my Ji family and publicly humiliate us! Today, I will grind you to dust!"
"Young Master Ye, come back to Yao Guang with me. Yao Guang will focus on nurturing you..."
Various voices came, and Ye Fan was caught in a dilemma.
Hua Yunfei, who was standing to the side, did not delay and transmitted his voice, "The Bodhi seed on your body can ward off fire and can protect you from harm."
Ye Fan was shocked to hear this. How did Hua Yunfei know that he had Bodhi seeds? When did he expose himself?
But now he had no other choice. He looked at Ji Hui and said coldly, "You old hag, just you wait, one day I will kill you!"
Without hesitation, he plunged headlong into the depths of the fire domain.
"Ignorant little thief, you dare to dream of surviving after entering the Fire Domain." Ji Hui sneered, her killing intent fully revealed, and led the Ji family in pursuit.
Hua Yunfei, Yao Xi, and others followed closely behind.
Ultimately, Ye Fan was forced into the sixth level of the Fire Domain by Ji Hui and the others.
"No one below the level of a sixth-level fire domain expert can survive..."
"Let's go, if we don't get out soon, we won't be able to hold on any longer."
A group of people stepped back.
Hua Yunfei didn't make any moves during this time, knowing that Ye Fan was definitely safe inside.
Once the surroundings quieted down, he was the first to turn and leave; this was not the right occasion to go looking for Ye Fan.
Back near the demon world, the great war between the various forces and the demons was nearing its end, and without a doubt, the demons suffered a crushing defeat.
After all, with the two immortal lineages plus forces like the Tai Xuan Sect and the Xiao Yao Sect, the number of cultivators and high-end combat power far surpasses that of the demon race.
Even with their immense magical powers, the Peacock King and the Azure Dragon King could only protect a small number of people from escaping.
The turmoil of purging hostile demon races continues, but none of this concerns Hua Yunfei anymore.
He didn't need to get involved in these trivial matters. After giving a few instructions to the elders, he made an excuse to return to Tai Xuan and left first.
……
The Fire Domain was once associated with immortals in the legends of the Eastern Wilderness.
There are even rumors that the Eastern Wilderness's most precious treasure—the Wilderness Tower—once used the flames here to repair itself, but whether it's true or not, no one can say for sure.
But Hua Yunfei believes this legend is mostly true.
After all, the cluster of immortal fire and the desolate tower in the deepest part of the Fire Domain were passed down from the Chaotic Ancient Era or even the Immortal Ancient Era, and their origins are astonishing.
Furthermore, both of these items have a great karmic connection with the Desolate Emperor.
At this moment, Hua Yunfei was carefully observing the area around the edge of the Fire Domain, and he could still see cultivators from the Ji family and the Yao Guang Holy Land guarding outside from time to time.
He didn't leave; he turned back.
Ye Fan was still trapped inside. After thinking it over, Hua Yunfei decided to go and see him.
Using the Devouring Demon Jar as cover, he entered the Fire Domain unnoticed and without alerting anyone.
For some reason, Hua Yunfei couldn't help but laugh when he thought about Ye Paopao's miserable situation at this moment.
Different circumstances lead to different mindsets.
During this period, Hua Yunfei not only found Wei Yi to break his own restrictions, but also successfully obtained the Devouring Demon Jar, completely changing the trajectory of his fate.
As fate would have it, Ye Fan continued to encounter all the misfortunes that were destined to happen.
Compared to that, it's really quite tragic.
At this moment, Hua Yunfei was standing in the fourth level of the fire domain. With his cultivation level, he could no longer withstand going any further.
He had no choice but to use the Devouring Demon Jar for protection.
A thin layer of dark light appeared on his body. Although it was very faint, as he took a step forward, the surrounding flames involuntarily separated and could no longer harm him in the slightest.
Deeper into the sixth fire domain, the divine fire here is already extremely terrifying; those with less than a half-step Great Power level cultivation cannot remain here permanently.
As he ventured deeper, he carefully sensed the surroundings, and soon Hua Yunfei made a discovery.
In the stone forest ahead, a boy sat cross-legged.
The divine fire could not penetrate within a three-meter radius around it, which was naturally due to the effect of the Bodhi seeds.
"Who?"
Ye Fan, who was healing his injuries, sensed someone approaching and immediately looked in Hua Yunfei's direction.
"It's you?!"
Ye Fan was startled and stared warily at Hua Yunfei who was approaching.
His divine power flowed slowly throughout his body, ready to strike at any moment, even though he knew the gap between the two was enormous.
He was able to come to this fiery area to escape pursuers only because of Hua Yunfei's help.
But Ye Fan really didn't know what Hua Yunfei was up to, or why the other party would help him.
He couldn't understand how Hua Yunfei knew he had Bodhi seeds on him; he had too many things he couldn't show for himself.
"Little Yezi, don't be nervous. You've received guidance from Uncle Li and learned the secret techniques of Zhuofeng. You can be considered half a disciple of Zhuofeng, right?"
"Come on, call me 'Senior Brother' and let me hear it..." Hua Yunfei chuckled and casually sat down.
Ye Fan: "..."
The sixth level of the Fire Domain is called "Purple Qi Comes from the East." The divine fire here looks like flowing purple haze, and the scene is quite spectacular when viewed from a distance.
Only those who ventured deep within realized how terrifying it was; the temperature was so high that even divine power could be melted. Hua Yunfei and Ye Fan were only able to remain unharmed because they both had secret treasures protecting them.
"Senior Brother Yunfei..."
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Fan finally spoke.
He asked bluntly, "Senior Brother Yunfei, did you help me before, and why have you come here specifically for something I have, or perhaps for my constitution?"
Yes and no.
"You must be wondering how I knew about the bodhi seeds on your body, right?"
Faced with Ye Fan's question, Hua Yunfei answered immediately.
"When the Zhuofeng inheritance was activated, I, like you, also obtained the All-Encompassing Secret. At that time, we were both one with the Zhuofeng Daoist Rhyme. I knew then that you possessed the Ancient Sacred Body, and I even saw some of your past memories through your divine sense fluctuations..."
Ye Fan's expression changed instantly. This was too terrifying. He never expected that a single enlightenment would reveal all his secrets.
"Then why didn't I see anything about you?" Ye Fan asked, frowning and doubtful.
"I am already in the third secret realm. Your cultivation is too low; you're only at the Divine Bridge stage. How could you possibly detect me?"
"What else do you know?"
"Not much. All I know is that you come from a life-bearing planet called Earth, and you possess a few treasures in your sea of suffering..."
Oh no, they've seen right through me.
After taking a deep breath, Ye Fan asked, "So, Senior Brother Hua is after the treasure I possess?"
"If I wanted to, I would have made my move back in the Tai Xuan Sect. Wouldn't that have been much safer? Why would I wait until now? Your Tianxuan Steps are extremely fast. I really don't have absolute confidence that I can defeat you..."
"Then what is your purpose? It can't really be about helping someone in need," Ye Fan said indifferently.
Good people? They don't exist.
What kind of miserable life did he live in these three years?
"To be honest, I see that Brother Ye has extraordinary talent and a dragon-like appearance, a face that shines like the sun and the moon. He will surely soar to great heights in the future and become a Heavenly Emperor! Therefore, I cherish your talent and cannot bear to see you die young, so I took action!" Hua Yunfei said in a serious tone.
"Heh..." Ye Fan sneered without replying, thinking to himself: I don't believe you for a second!
"Well, the real reason is that you and I share the same great cause and effect..." Hua Yunfei said meaningfully.
"Cause and effect? What does that mean?"
Ye Fan asked.
"Do you know the origin of the Root of All Things in your body? It belongs to the Ruthless Great Emperor!" Hua Yunfei said solemnly.
"Ruthless Emperor? Never heard of him..." Ye Fan said blankly.
Hua Yunfei: "..."
