When I flew closer, I found that almost every corner of this island was covered with a dark red spirit bamboo.

This bamboo is no more than three feet high, the posture is strange, often a trunk, will spit out hundreds of branches, on which the bamboo leaves are dense, no wind swaying, as if supporting a sea of flames.

The temperature inside the island is much higher than that of the outside world, and if you put a raw egg on the ground at will, you can cook it in a few dozen breaths.

"Bazhu Island has planted millions of flame bamboos."

Slowly landing on the island, Chen Ping narrowed his eyes, revealing a thoughtful gaze.

The Flame Sun Bamboo is only a first-order spirit plant, and a single spirit stone can buy a large bundle, so it is not suitable to describe it as a rare thing at all.

But this bamboo has one characteristic.

Absorb the aura of heaven and earth of various attributes around it, and spit out pure fire aura.

Due to the low grade of the Flame Sun Bamboo, planting thousands or tens of thousands of roots has no obvious effect.

However, the Flame Sun Bamboo planted all over the mountains and fields here has caused the fire aura coiled on this island to be at least three times more than that of Haichang Island.

Bazhu Island is the residence of the Smelting Fire Alliance, with hundreds of refiners and more than a dozen refining masters.

In the cultivation world, ninety percent of the refiners are cultivators who specialize in fire attribute exercises.

Therefore, the demand for fire aura is much higher than elsewhere.

Chen Ping sailed 40,000 miles to Bazhu Island this time to find someone.

The deputy leader of the Smelting Fire Alliance, Shangguanjin.

This person is Tu Zhenxi's old friend, and it is said that he has a lot of Qingxuan Iron Essence on his body.

At the beginning, the five catties of iron essence that Tu Zhenxi got were bought from Shangguan Jin.

Chen Ping has collected twenty-five catties of iron essence at present, which is about ten catties away from the lowest expectation.

However, since he had also cultivated physical arts, it would not be impossible for him to use some more iron essence to build the Five Elements Pure Yang Sword, and it would be even more powerful.

Haichang's family couldn't count on it, and after a few years, Chen Qiudong barely bought two catties.

He sincerely hoped to make up 35 catties on Bazhu Island.

Otherwise, we would have to continue to travel tens of thousands of miles south to the distant Twin Cities Cultivation Realm to acquire iron essence.

……

When Chen Ping found the station of the Smelting Fire Alliance, it had been half an hour.

As the only foundation-building force on Bazhu Island, the Smelting Fire Alliance did not build a city on flat ground like most families.

Instead, a giant basin was chosen to house the industry and the monks of the League.

The basin in front of him was wide and narrow at the bottom, like a big pot for cooking rice, and it was tightly wrapped around by tall and strong flame-sun bamboo.

From above, there are more than a dozen huge bluestone halls and densely packed houses, and the streets are full of people, quite prosperous.

The rock walls of the basin are engraved with runes that flicker with fine light, which should be the heel of the formation.

The Smelting Fire Alliance is rich and wealthy, much stronger than the Chen family, and must be guarded by a third-level formation.

As he approached the entrance of the basin, Chen Ping quietly operated the exercises, and his feet gradually suspended about half a zhang from the ground.

"I've seen my seniors."

Several guards in armor looked at Chen Ping's appearance floating in the sky, and knew that he was a foundation building monk, and immediately hugged their fists and greeted respectfully.

The Smelting Fire Alliance is worthy of being a well-known refining force.

Looking at the bright green armor on the bodies of these Qi Cultivation Guards, they are all the best defensive magic weapons.

"Excuse me."

Chen Ping's heart moved, and he said straight to the point: "I want to visit the leader of your league's Shangguan League. ”

"Did the seniors have a relationship with the leader of the Shangguan Alliance?"

The leader-like long-necked man took a few steps forward, and then asked cautiously.

"Chen was introduced by Tu Zhenxi and brought a letter of introduction written by him."

Chen Ping's complexion was calm and calm.

"Senior Chen is actually Master Tu's old friend!"

The long-necked man's eyes lit up, and he said flatteringly: "Senior Shangguan Yan, please come with me, the leader of the Shangguan League just returned to the island a few days ago." ”

"He really knows Tu Zhenxi."

Chen Ping nodded slightly, Tu Zhenxi is a refiner, and it is not surprising that he often comes to the Smelting Fire Alliance to discuss teaching and research.

Following behind Shangguan Yan, the two walked briskly towards the basin.

The air inside was exceptionally hot, and the surrounding heat waves were blowing in on the face, making the mouth dry.

Fortunately, the basin is inhabited by monks who have cultivated and can protect their bodies with spiritual power, while mortals are obviously unable to survive here for a long time.

"What is the relationship between Xiaoyou and the leader of your alliance?"

Idle, Chen Ping asked with a smile.

"The leader of the Shangguan League is the uncle of the younger generation."

Shangguan Yan replied without being arrogant or humble.

"Hehe, young and promising."

Chen Ping praised casually, turned his eyes, looked at a place far away, and said in surprise: "What is that?" ”

Following his line of sight, he saw a round of red sun several zhang square on the roof of a palace, emitting an infinitely dazzling and scorching light, reflecting in all directions.

"The Sun of Earth Fire is a low-grade Dao weapon that has gathered all the top refiners of this alliance."

Shangguan Yan immediately spoke, his tone mixed with arrogance.

"The Earth Fire Sun is a special function of the Dao Weapon, which seals a large amount of Earth Fire Essence and can provide unparalleled assistance for smelting materials. But even if it is a person within the alliance, he has to pay two hundred spirit stones a day for rent. ”

"Oh?"

Chen Ping's eyes moved slightly, and he said tentatively: "Listening to Xiaoyou's meaning, non-monks from your alliance can also rent this treasure to assist in refining?" ”

Next, he was about to start refining the Pure Yang Sword.

But the mere step of melting the green iron essence is a huge project.

Counting the help of Tu Zhenxi and Zeng Tingxuan, it is estimated that it will take several years.

But if you use the Dao weapon of the Earth Fire Sun, you can save most of your energy.

"Hehe, Senior Chen guessed right."

Shangguan Yan touched his head and explained: "Outsiders who rent the Earth Fire Sun need to pay a deposit of 200,000 yuan in advance, and charge a fee of 300 spirit stones every day. ”

"Third, it is forbidden to take the sun of earth fire out of the basin."

"Are the conditions so harsh?"

Chen Ping frowned, and immediately extinguished the idea of renting the Fire Sun.

First of all, mortgaging 200,000 spirit stones to the Smelting Fire Alliance was not excessive.

There are about 100,000 ordinary attacking inferior Dao weapons, and tens of thousands of special functions are higher.

Moreover, the rental fee of three hundred spirit stones a day can be accepted by him through gritted teeth.

Unfortunately, this treasure could not be brought back to Haichang, and this restriction made him a great disappointment.

The value of the Five Elements Pure Yang Sword was amazing, and Chen Ping didn't dare to refine it with great fanfare in the Smelting Fire Alliance, which he was not familiar with.

Reluctantly, he glanced at the Earth Fire Sun a few more times, and a bold idea flashed in his mind.

"Forget it."

Chen Ping shook his head violently in private, and his face returned to normal.

Forces that focus on alchemy or refining weapons are generally extremely difficult to mess with.

If he snatches the Sun of Earthfire, I am afraid that he will face endless pursuit and killing by the Smelting Fire Alliance and the large and small forces with which he has intricate relationships.

For the sake of a 200,000 spirit stone inferior Dao weapon, Chen Ping was unwilling to make up his mind.

Moreover, the strength of the Smelting Fire Alliance itself is not weak.

There are a total of more than a dozen foundation-building monks in the entire Bazhu Island, and the alliance leader and the two specially appointed guest secretaries are even more in the realm of great perfection.

Once he blatantly snatched the Sun of Earth Fire, it would be difficult for him to get out of the way.
