Chapter 862: Ember Wood

The old man snorted coldly, and said in an unkind tone: "It turned out that this little thing brought you here." I'm a little curious as to how you forced this little liar to tell you the truth. ”

Seeing that he had been exposed, the little thing had to timidly raise his head to look at Yan Gong, and defended himself in a low voice: "Yan Gong, I didn't bring them here......

Yan Gong was stunned when he heard this, and then he was puzzled: "Didn't you bring them here......?"

Feng Yan smiled slightly, and replied, "It was a Philip named 'Jie Wei' who guided us here. ”

"Relieve your worries?" As soon as Yan Gong heard this name, his face immediately changed greatly, and then his voice became a little trembling because of excitement, "You guys...... Do you really see the relief?"

Feng Yan nodded and said, "It's true." But she led us to the jungle and left. ”

"Hey, after all, it's still not enough!" Yan Gong sighed with emotion, and his previous cold face turned into unspeakable regret, and then he shook his head again, "That's it, since you can meet her, you must have her approval." Say, what have you come here to ask for?"

Cang Wunian walked in front of Yan Gong at this time, and solemnly hugged his fists and said, "It's not a secret, we came here this time to wish for the fire of Rong." ”

As soon as Yan Gong heard the words "Zhurong Fire", his complexion immediately changed again, but this time he was not excited, but became serious, dignified and vigilant.

He looked the pair of men and women in front of him up and down, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want Zhurong Fire to do?"

Seeing the displeasure on Yan Gong's face, Cang Wunian hurriedly explained: "Seniors don't need to be nervous, we don't have any plans for Zhurong Fire, let alone take it away, we just need to borrow its power to calcine a piece of the root of the Divine Tree." ”

"Calcining tree roots?" Yan Gong was stunned and hesitated, "It's that simple?"

Cang Wunian nodded decisively, "It's that simple, we just need the charcoal after calcining the roots of this tree, and we have nothing else to ask for." ”

Seeing that there was only expectation on the faces of Cang Wunian and Feng Yan, but there was no greed and calculation, Yan Gong nodded slowly.

The atmosphere suddenly became silent, and Yan Gong did not express an attitude of permission or disapproval after nodding, but put his hands behind his back, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time, Yan Gong sighed faintly: "Hey, I think you should already know that our Fire Light Beast relies on fire sources to survive. ”

Cang Wunian nodded in response: "We naturally understand this. But...... We're not trying to take the fire. ”

Yan Gong waved his hand, "I didn't mean that, let me tell you the truth, the fire source we rely on for survival is actually a spark borrowed from the real Zhurong Fire. ”

"Tinder?" Cang Wunian and Feng Yan were both startled when they heard this, and then looked at each other.

Yan Gong nodded, "That's right, there is an Ember Tree in our Holy Land, and this tree is a divine tree that will never burn forever. However, although the ember wood burns inexhaustibly, the ordinary fire on its body burns and burns and then extinguishes. Not having a constant source of fire is a very dangerous thing for us Flare Beasts, so in the past, our people would go out every once in a while to find a new fire.

"Until one day, an ancestor accidentally discovered the fire of Zhurong, so he fought his life to bring back a star of fire, so far, the ember wood has become a real burning fire tree surrounded by fire all year round. ”

Listening to Yan Gong's narration, Feng Annihilation and Cang Wunian couldn't help but sigh at the magic of this ancient period, there are even trees that are not afraid of fire, and they can not turn into ashes under the burning of Zhurong's fire.

"This ...... Since the flame burning on the ember wood is a spark of the Zhurong Fire, its power must not be underestimated, I wonder if our predecessors can let us try it and see if this flame can calcine the roots of the tree in our hands into charcoal?"

Yan Gong sighed deeply, "It's not that I don't want to, but ...... In the past hundred years, the flame that originally burned on the ember wood has gradually extinguished, and I am afraid that it will ...... before it has burned the roots of the sacred tree in your hands thoroughly."

Yan Gong didn't say anything, but both of them already understood his concern, the old man was afraid that the fire source on the ember wood was not powerful enough to calcine the roots of the divine tree in their hands into charcoal, but he extinguished it first.

Generally speaking, the fire source should be more and more vigorous after encountering something that can be burned, as long as it is not deliberately extinguished with water, and all objects that can be burned are not burned, the fire will not be extinguished.

However, Zhu Rong's Fire and Ember Wood and even the roots of the Dragon Blood Divine Wood in the hands of Cang Wunian and Feng Annihilation were not something that could be understood by common sense, so it was not unfounded that the Yan Guild would have such worries.

Strictly speaking, the flame of the Zhurong Fire burning on the Ember Wood should be counted as a kind of energy, which is very huge and can be kept in a very stable state for a long time.

However, no matter how huge the energy is, there will always be a time when it will be exhausted, unless there is an external force that constantly instills or blesses it, it will eventually dissipate after all.

Cang Wunian and Feng Yan couldn't help but feel sorry for this, they finally found the fire source related to Zhurong's fire, but it was so unfortunate that this fire source was about to be extinguished.

After thinking about it, Cang Wunian still asked unwillingly: "Dare to ask the seniors if they know where the original ancestor brought back the flame of the Zhurong Fire?"

Yan Gong's eyes widened violently when he heard this, and he was stunned: "What's the matter? Could it be that you still want to go to Zhurong Fire in person?"

Cang Wunian nodded firmly, "It took us a lot of effort to come to this place, just for such a purpose. If we can't find the fire of Zhurong, there is no point in us going back. ”

Although I don't know where the pair of men and women in front of them came from, and why they have to find the Zhurong Fire to calcinate a piece of the root of the sacred tree, but judging from the looks of the two, this matter is indeed very important to them. That level of importance is as important as the meaning of the fire source to their firelight beasts, comparable to life.

Yan Gong glanced at the two of them deeply, and finally compromised, "Okay, okay...... Xie Wei will not lead you here for no reason, and she will not cut us off in order to help you. I will take you to the Holy Land, and whether or not you can calcine the roots of the tree in your hands into charcoal depends on your creation. ”

As he spoke, he saw a flash of fire around him, and immediately flames came out from under his feet, and then quickly swam away, forming a circle of fire on the ground.

The circle of fire encompassed Cang Wunian and Feng Annihilation together, and then the two of them saw that the fire in front of them suddenly skyrocketed, but it was Yan Gong who had already cast a spell and took them out of this place.

The temperature around them suddenly rose, but it was not so hot that it was unbearable, and the wind and the delirium could faintly see each other's slightly worried expressions in the firelight.

Soon, however, the flames and heat dissipated, and they found themselves taken by Yan Gong to a place that looked very empty and felt very deserted.

It was pitch black all around, and there was a wind whirring in his ears, and the wind obliterated him left and right, and couldn't help muttering: "This place looks like the top of the cliff that surrounds the clearing?"

"Yes, we're on top of a cliff, you two be careful, don't fall down. Yan Gong's voice sounded behind them.

When Cang Wunian heard this, he hurriedly grabbed Feng Yan's shoulders and turned around with her.

Then they saw that some distance away from them, Yan Gong's body was surrounded by a circle of firelight, and it seemed that his movements were exerting some magical powers.

After a while, I saw him shout "open", and a beam of flame flew out of his hand with his voice, and then I saw the sporadic firelight in the dark void, as if it was hit by some invisible prohibition.

When the light of the fire completely dissipated, the charcoal fire floating in the air appeared in their sight.

Cang Wunian and Feng Yan glanced at each other, and then immediately flew forward, and when they got closer to take a closer look, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.

What appeared in front of them at this time was a tree about two people tall, with no leaves on it, only branches of different thicknesses, which looked sparse and sparse.

This tree looks like a small sapling in terms of height and number of branches, and it definitely doesn't make people think that it has anything to do with any sacred tree anyway.

That's it, the strange thing is that some branches of this tree are flashing with fire, but some places are still the trunk as it is, which is why Fang Cai Feng and Cang Wunian only saw that there seemed to be a section of charcoal fire in the distance, which was obviously like the light of a red-hot wooden stick in the dark night.

"This ...... Is this Ember Wood?" asked Cang Wunian with a sneer.

Yan Gong glanced at him and replied, "Yes, this is the Ember Wood now. ”

"But...... This is also too far from what I imagined. Feng Yan also muttered.

Yan Gong sighed, "It's no wonder you're so surprised, after all, this Ember Wood is indeed not like this. At least a hundred years ago, it was a burning fire tree, although it was not tall, but the scene was quite spectacular when viewed from a distance. ”

Indeed, in the imagination of Cang Wunian and Feng Annihilation, this ember wood should be decorated with red flames from head to toe, and even if the flames are weakened now, at least some flames should be visible.
