In the True Martial Realm, the cultivation of a low-grade alchemist or a low-grade refiner is at least a desolate realm, because only a desolate realm martial artist can achieve the release of true yuan and the formation of condensation, which is the most basic condition that an alchemy refiner needs to have.

And a middle-grade alchemist or middle-grade alchemist usually has a Hong-level realm cultivation, otherwise he will not be able to control the vitality more accurately and achieve the effect of improving the grade of the elixir or spiritual weapon.

From this, Hong Qitian deduced that although the guy in front of him called Bai Fang was hiding his cultivation, he should also be a Hong-level martial artist.

It's just that Hong Qitian didn't think that Fang Bai's strength could compete with him.

After all, in Hong Qitian's eyes, the age of Fang Bai, who had undergone disfigurement, looked like he was only about forty years old, at such an age, only those second-grade sects or more powerful sects could rely on their rich heritage to cultivate a Hong-level powerhouse, otherwise it would be difficult to become a Hong-level martial artist.

Take Hong Qitian as an example, he can be regarded as talented, but when he was promoted to the Hong-level realm, he was over eighty years old, and now he has reached the Hong-level intermediate realm, and he is more than 100 years old.

It's just that when a martial artist cultivates, he absorbs the vitality of heaven and earth, and his physical body has also been tempered, so he looks much younger than his real age on the surface.

For example, Hong Qitian is now over 100 years old, but he looks like he is just a sixty-year-old man in high spirits.

Hong Qitian felt that Fang Bai should be a martial artist who had just entered the Hong level, as the so-called newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, he was not very old, and he believed that his strength was strong, so he had no one in his eyes, and he spoke wildly, and he didn't even pay attention to himself, a senior in the alchemy world.

Of course, Fang Bai had no one in his eyes and spoke wildly, it was just that Hong Daqi listened to Yu Dajiang's words, he came to Fang Bai now, he wanted to teach this junior who didn't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth a hard lesson, and then drive him out of Ziyan City, so as not to threaten his position.

Hong Qitian originally thought that by releasing his martial arts aura, he would be able to give Fang Bai a dismount and make him a big ugly, but he didn't expect that Fang Bai, who was shrouded in his martial arts aura, did not change his complexion, although his black hair was fluttering, his clothes were hunting and dancing, but his body stood majestically like a pine.

"This ...... This kid is not simple, I still underestimate him!"

Hong Qitian was secretly frightened, and immediately put away his original contempt, and his face began to become solemn.

"If you want to drive me out of Purple Flame City, defeat me first!

Fang Bai gave Hong Qitian a contemptuous look, and then his figure jumped high, sweeping past the tall courtyard wall of the martial arts trading market, and in a few ups and downs, the person was already thousands of meters away, sweeping towards the east of the city.

"Hmph, it's not enough!"

Hong Qitian snorted coldly, jumped down on the wall, squinted his eyes and looked at Fang Bai's back, and then chased after him.

Although it was already dusk at this moment, the martial arts trading market was about to close, and most of the martial artists had dispersed, there were still a small number of martial artists who noticed the movement of Hong Qitian and Fang Bai's side and hid in the distance to watch.

If Hong Qitian didn't chase after Fang Bai, those martial artists would definitely think that he was a dignified Purple Flame Sect Worship Elder and a Hong-level middle-level powerhouse, and he was afraid of a rising star who had just emerged, and if this was spread, it would be a blow to his Hong Qitian's prestige.

Therefore, Hong Qitian must chase after Fang Bai, and he must do his best to defeat Fang Bai, otherwise he will not be able to get off the stage.

Fang Bai was first, Hong Qitian was behind, and the two powerhouses swept towards the outside of Ziyan City at a gallop, leaving only an afterimage that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

Some martial artists wanted to follow the past to see the excitement, but when they chased out of the martial arts academy trading market, they couldn't see Fang Bai and Hong Qitian, and they couldn't even catch the breath of the two of them, so they had to give up with regret.

Ten miles east of Ziyan City, on the shore of the Lake of Fire.

Fang Bai stopped by the lake and turned to look at Hong Qitian, who was following closely.

The so-called fire lake is because the water of the lake is as red as fire, and when the wind blows, the waves in the lake are surging, as if the flames are burning and rising.

Moreover, the temperature of the fire lake is extremely high, and it is in a boiling state all year round, even if a desolate level martial artist stands by the lake, he will have the feeling of standing next to the huge earth fire magma, and it is difficult to withstand the high temperature.

Fang Bai knew that there must be something strange in this lake, but at this moment, his target was Hong Qitian, and he was going to go down to the lake to take a look after solving Hong Qitian's matter.

Along the way, Fang Bai didn't use any body techniques, just let the wind vitality circulate in his body, and he easily left Hong Qitian behind, just this Fang Bai still has some reservations, otherwise Hong Qitian wouldn't even be able to touch his shadow.

Hong Qitian chased after Fang Bai all the way, almost using his ability to eat milk, but he always ate dirt behind Fang Bai's back, and his heart became more and more surprised, only then did he know that Fang Bai's strength was not weaker than his own, and he began to regret a little in his heart, he shouldn't have listened to Yu Dajiang's words, and he came to trouble him without checking Fang Bai's details.

But now, Hong Qitian has been unable to ride a tiger, no matter what, a battle between him and Fang Bai is inevitable.

Victory, his current reputation and prestige will not be affected in any way.

defeated, disgraced, and his reputation plummeted.

Moreover, Hong Qitian understood that after the Purple Yan Sect learned the news of this middle-grade alchemist and middle-grade refiner named "Bai Fang", he would definitely offer tempting conditions and try his best to win over Fang Bai, if he lost to Fang Bai in the upcoming duel, then his position in the Purple Flame Sect would definitely be below Fang Bai in the future.

Hong Qitian thought that he was over 100 years old, if he succumbed to a forty-year-old junior, it was really a little difficult to accept, if he really fell to that point, it would be better to resign from the position of the Purple Yan Sect as an enshrined elder and go to a sect in other countries to serve as an enshrined elder.

It's just that the status and treatment given by other sects may not be comparable to that of the Ziyan Sect, and Hong Qitian has been an elder in the Ziyan Sect for decades, so he has some feelings for this place and doesn't want to leave anymore.

Hong Qitian still has a glimmer of hope, maybe Fang Bai is just a Hong-level beginner-level martial artist, but he has only cultivated some kind of high-level body secret technique, so he has left himself behind, when it comes to real combat power, he must not be his opponent.

Hong Qitian secretly prayed that his hopes would become a reality.

However, Hong Qitian knew in his heart that Fang Bai was already invincible in the duel with himself just by virtue of his wonderful body technique.

Because even if Fang Bai can't beat himself, he can use the advantages of his body to deal with himself and consume his vitality, and if he can't catch up with Shang Bai, he is helpless.

"Fang Bai, you and I are of equal strength, if we fight, I am afraid it will be difficult to distinguish the winner in a short period of time. Why don't we go back to Ziyan City and spread the word that the fight is a tie?"

Hong Qitian suddenly took the initiative to show weakness.
