Xuanhuo Altar.

It is a huge circular altar. The altar is suspended in the air and is supported by thirteen round stone pillars below. The twelve stone pillars on the edge of the altar are as thick as two people hugging each other. The stone pillar in the center requires at least five or six people to hold it together.

Above the altar is a three-story cupola pagoda. The stone steps of the pagoda, the guardrails, everything is made of a very peculiar red material. From afar, it was like a huge flame reaching into the sky.

"Let's go inside."

Chen Xu walked in front and pushed open the heavy gate of the pagoda. Baguio followed him, vigilantly watching the situation around him.

Rumble~~~

The heat wave is coming.

The temperature inside the Xuanhuo Altar was extremely high, and Chen Xu and Baguio were like being in the midst of magma. The dark red light and the constantly steaming white mist made the two of them feel irritated.

Baguio protected her body with a sad strange flower, "It's really, it's so hot here, and I don't know how that Shangguan Ce has been guarding here." If it were me, it would not be possible to stay here for a day, or even an hour. ”

Chen Xu glanced around, "It's so hot here, it's likely that it will be a great help for Shangguan Ce's cultivation of fire attribute exercises." Let's hurry, those fish-people may not last long. ”

Baguio nodded, "Okay, let's hurry up." Aunt You said, there seems to be some formation guarding here, let us be careful. ”

The two walked through a brief corridor and came to a large hall.

In the center of the main hall was a blazing flame. The dark red light of the entire Xuanhuo Altar, as well as the extremely hot breath, were all emitted by this flame. On the ground around the flames, there are eight statues of fierce gods.

Baguio curiously observed the eight gods on the ground for a while, "It's so strange, I have never seen these gods before, are they the totems of the Incense Valley?" These eight gods are definitely fierce gods, and no matter how you look at them, they should not be worshiped by the Righteous Path Sect. ”

Chen Xu stared at the eight god statues, and suddenly remembered in his mind that there was a magic circle guarding the Xuanhuo Altar.

"Baguio, get out of here!" Without saying a word, he pulled Baguio back quickly.

Thundered.

At the same time as Chen Xu pulled Baguio back, all the gods on the ground began to glow strangely. These rays of light converged in the air, forming a picture of the eight fierce gods. The eight fierce gods in the picture seemed to come to life, and let out a hideous whistling sound.

The originally scorching hall suddenly blew a gust of wind.

The flames began to burst into dazzling light, rising with the wind.

Immediately after, the eight fierce gods formed by the convergence of light all pounced on the flame, merging with the flames.

Roar!

A low roar came from the flames, and for a moment the entire hall seemed to tremble.

A giant beast swooped down from above, its body burning with raging flames, its razor-sharp claws, and the slightest movement of its claws on the ground left deep scratches on the hard crimson rock.

Baguio couldn't help but shudder, "Let's get out of here, I feel that this beast is very dangerous." ”

"No, this beast is powerful, but it can be easily subdued by us." Chen Xu stood in front of Baguio, looking confident.

Roar, roar, roar!

The flame beast approached step by step.

Chen Xu took out the Xuanhuo Jian from his arms, urged it with spiritual power, and a scorching breath gushed out.

When the beast saw Xuanhuojian, it suddenly stopped, its huge head slowly turned, and its flame-like eyes fell on Xuanhuojian. It seemed to be incredulous, looked at Xuanhuo Jian, then at Chen Xu and Baguio, its huge head turning, it seemed to be a little irritable, and kept letting out a low roar.

A moment later, the Flame Beast suddenly bent its front legs down, its body bowed, and its huge head slowly nodded three times towards the Xuanhuo Sword. Then there was a low roar, and the flames on the entire body suddenly dimmed, and all the flames disappeared one by one.

Eventually, even the body of the giant beast slowly dissipated into this space.

Baguio blinked, looking at the place where the flame beast had disappeared, and it felt like a dream. The fierce beast that felt irresistible just now actually disappeared like this after seeing the Xuanhuo Jian?

She grabbed Chen Xu's arm tightly and said excitedly: "This Xuanhuo Jian is actually so powerful, it can actually subdue that fierce beast. Hey, do we want to find a way to summon that beast again and see if Xuanhuo Jian can control it? ”

Chen Xu wiped the sweat from his forehead, "It's important to rescue the nine-tailed sky fox, let's not make any extraneous branches." ”

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is the benefit of knowing the plot.

In the original work, Zhang Xiaofan, who had already cultivated the three exercises of Buddhism, Taoism and Demons, was still not the opponent of the flame beast even with the help of the three-eyed spirit monkey that had fully exploded. If he hadn't been subdued by Xuanhuo Jian at the last moment, Zhang Xiaofan and the Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey would have died.

Baguio was still shaking Chen Xu's arm, "Oh, let's try." If I can subdue that fierce beast and rescue the nine-tailed sky fox, it will also give me a little more points, won't it? ”

Chen Xu was unmoved, "It's too dangerous, if Xuanhuo Jian can't subdue the fierce beast anymore, won't we die a miserable death?" Besides, how can you be sure that the people of Incense Valley have no way to control that beast? ”

Baguio thought about it, if he could control this fierce beast with only Xuanhuo Jian, how could the fox clan who captured Xuanhuo Jian back then end up with a near-annihilation?

"You're right, I was so excited that I didn't think about Zhou Xiang."

She paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "I see. The reason why Shangguan Ce is the only one guarding here, and he can leave here without hesitation, must be because of the fierce beast guarding. ”

Chen Xu agreed: "It should be like this. ”

The two stopped talking and walked down the stone steps to the second floor of the Xuanhuo Altar.

The second altar was pitch black, except for something that shimmered in the depths of darkness.

Chen Xu and Baguio were on their own guard and walked cautiously towards there.

The glowing thing was a stone platform more than half a man high, in the shape of a cylinder, exuding a faint coolness. The shimmer of light from the stone pillar keeps changing colors, sometimes reddish, sometimes light purple, sometimes goose yellow, sometimes green, and it is very beautiful.

On the plane of the stone platform, there is a ring-shaped indentation, and three characters are engraved next to it - Xuanhuo Jian!

Chen Xu took out the Xuanhuo Jian and put it into the dent.

Click.

The Xuanhuo Jian and the dent are in perfect agreement.

A moment later, suddenly a dull sound came from overhead. The stone slab above the two of them slowly parted in a deep voice, and a huge stone cave appeared in front of them.

The passage to the third floor of the Xuanhuo Altar opened.
