Under the cloudless sky, there is a misty mountain range, this is the northwest of the Shuangdi Mountain Range, along the mountain range to the northwest, is a plain with no end in sight, this plain extends to the core area of the middle of the Cloud Continent.

At the junction of the plains and the mountains, a huge city stands majestically, backed by the vast Shuangdi Mountains and facing the vast plains as the sea.

This city is the famous refining holy place on the Yunxiao Continent - the Fire City.

The Fire City is not only a place where refiners gather, but also a famous commercial city on the mainland, countless merchants come here to sell the spirit weapons refined by the Fire City to all parts of the mainland, and there are also many warriors who come here, hoping to find a dream spirit weapon for themselves, because of this, the Fire City has also become the largest city around the entire Shuangdi Mountain Range.

In the center of the Fire City stands a huge teleportation array, since the day it was built, it has never stopped operating, the people waiting in line for the teleportation, the nearby water is impassable, nearly a hundred long dragons extend out, and the black pressure is full of people.

At this time, the teleportation array was surging with spiritual light, and the six figures walked out of the void, which was Zhu Huo and his party.

The disciples of Fire City who were in charge of guarding the teleportation array saw Zhu Huo and immediately stepped forward to salute, this move also attracted the attention of the people waiting in line, and after discovering that it was Master Zhu Huo, they saluted respectfully, and even directly waved the space ring full of spirit stones, shouting loudly, hoping that Zhu Huo could create a custom spirit weapon for him.

Zhu Huo didn't pay much attention to these people, and after he said a few words to the disciple, he summoned a floating spirit ship from the space ring, and took Xing Yu and the others directly onto the spirit ship and walked away.

This spirit ship is the most exquisite spirit ship Xing Yu has seen so far, compared to the spirit ships of the Moon Worship Sect and Zhuo Yu, whether it is in terms of flight speed or stability, it is much stronger, Xing Yu was surprised, but also quickly understood that the spirit ship is also a kind of spirit weapon, and it is normal to have such a spirit ship in Fire City, as the base camp for refining spirit weapons.

The spirit ship stopped at the northeast corner of the city of fire, where a magnificent mansion sits, and above the vermilion lacquer gate, there is a huge plaque made of 100 gold stones, on which are inscribed with two large golden characters - Zhu Fu.

The words on this plaque do not look like they were carved later, no matter from the pattern or handwriting, it is more like in the process of making the plaque, directly fused and cast, so that it can be perfectly integrated.

Seeing that plaque, Xing Yu was also slightly surprised, the hundred gold stone is a kind of artificially synthesized metal, which is condensed by the smelting of hundreds of precious ores by senior refiners, and more are used to refine middle-level high-grade spiritual weapons, and the Zhu family made such a large piece of gold stone into a plaque, which also shows their profound heritage as a refining family.

In fact, everyone knew that if it weren't for the disunity within the Fire City, the division of the three families, and the fact that the refiners themselves did not have a deep study of martial arts and limited combat power, with their background and the wealth accumulated from selling spiritual weapons, they could easily rank among the four rank forces, and they were still the top ones.

"This is the Zhu family, you go with me to see the head of the family, you still have to talk to the head of the house in person. ”

Zhu Huo leads the way in front, although he has the highest prestige and the greatest fame in the Zhu family, but today's head of the family is Zhu Kui after all, and everything still has to be decided by the head of the family himself, which is also the rule that the Zhu family has set up first, not looking at the generation, only looking at the identity, who is the head of the family, he will listen to whom, and it is absolutely not allowed to overstep the line, I think this is also one of the reasons why the Zhu family can exist for thousands of years and accumulate such a heritage.

Xing Yu followed Zhu Huo into Zhu Mansion, and the twenty guards standing at the door saluted in unison after seeing Zhu Huo, Xing Yu just glanced at it, and found that these twenty people all had the peak cultivation of the sensing realm, and one of the people who looked like a captain had reached the realm of half-step ascension, which was no worse than his own cultivation.

"The martial artists at the peak of the sensing realm and the half-step ascension actually used it to see the gate, this Zhu family is really wealthy. ”

Some of these martial artists have not practiced flame spiritual power and do not have the identity of refiners, so Xing Yu quickly saw that these people were just martial artists hired by the Zhu family, and they were similar to their guest status, after all, such a large family property still needs to be protected, so it can be guessed that I am afraid that there will be more powerful martial artists in the inner mansion.

However, Xing Yu didn't feel threatened, although even the half-step spirit ascension martial artists could only look at the gate, but since the Zhu family was willing to invite themselves, it showed that they absolutely recognized their own strength, not to mention, the half-step spirit ascension martial artist who looked at the gate was already over thirty years old.

When Xing Yu walked into the gate of the Zhu family, he saw a huge square covering an area of more than 100 acres, and there were about 100 furnaces and 10 meters tall distributed on the square, and there were vigorous flames burning under each furnace, and some people wearing refiner clothes controlled these flames, as if they were refining spiritual weapons.

This kind of scene alone is enough to shock Xing Yu, Feiyun Valley also has a Furnace Valley, but it has no more than twenty furnace tripods, and most of them are some low-level refining furnace tripods, such a scale is simply not worth mentioning compared to the Zhu family.

The furnace for refining is also divided into grades, its grading standards are the same as spiritual weapons, refining different levels of spiritual weapons need the corresponding level of furnaces, strictly speaking, the furnace itself is also a kind of spiritual weapons, so unless the financial resources are abundant, let alone refining, even the furnace for refining can not afford it, which does not include daily maintenance, maintenance and upgrading.

After walking through the square and walking for nearly a stick of incense, Xing Yu came to the hall under the leadership of Zhu Huo.

Before he got closer, Xing Yu immediately felt an extremely strong pressure suddenly envelop him, and his legs that stepped forward also froze at this moment, and his whole body was like carrying a thousand heavy burdens, and it was difficult to move an inch.

"It's another Earth Yuan Realm powerhouse, is this to test my strength or to give me a dismount?"

Xing Yu continued to walk forward without moving, his spiritual power poured into his whole body, stubbornly resisting the coercion that surged towards him like a tide, and slowly walked into the main hall like this, and did not stop because of the powerful coercion.

"Yes, it seems that I did choose the right person this time. A low exclamation sounded, and the coercion disappeared in an instant.

Without the suppression of coercion, Xing Yu's body loosened, and after feeling it himself, he also judged that the realm cultivation of the person who released this spiritual power coercion should be stronger than Yang Yitao, but compared to the original Zhuo Buqun, it is much weaker, in between.

"Xingyu, this is the head of the Zhu family-Zhu Kui. Zhu Huo reminded softly that he was Zhu Kui's uncle, so he didn't salute him, but the few people who came back with him all bowed down to Zhu Kui and saluted.

Xing Yu raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Kui, just opposite Zhu Kui's eyes, at this moment, Xing Yu suddenly felt a shock all over his body, and a tingling sensation suddenly came from his head, he hurriedly skimmed his eyes, but he didn't expect this Zhu Kui to be able to convey spiritual power through his eyes, and he really achieved the ultimate in spiritual movement.

For refiners and alchemists, it is necessary to master the power of flames skillfully, and only when the control of flames reaches a certain level can they refine high-grade spiritual weapons or elixirs, so exercises such as spirit action are often a compulsory course for senior refiners.

The spirit movement is similar to the realm of selflessness, both are a kind of cultivation method that martial artists have acquired, and Zhu Kui can control spiritual power with just his eyes, it is enough to imagine how skilled his control of flame spiritual power is, not surprisingly, the latter must be a very high-level refining master.

Seeing that Xing Yu did not salute, the Zhu family members on both sides of the hall were immediately a little displeased, they already knew that Xing Yu was here to take away the Zhu family's only qualification to participate in the Cloud Cloud Conference, these clansmen originally complained about this, but now seeing that Xing Yu did not even salute when he saw the patriarch, the dissatisfaction in his heart was immediately aroused.

"A low-end martial artist from a second-grade force is so arrogant, and he doesn't look at what place this is, this guy doesn't think that we need him to fight on behalf of the Zhu family, so he is really afraid that he will not succeed. ”

"That's it, I didn't see much strength, but I saw his rampantness, and I didn't know how Zhu Tong's kid recommended the person, but the old Zhu Huo really brought him back. ”

These people's discussions basically belong to the category of whispering, but even so, he still can't escape from his keen hearing, but in the face of these criticisms, he just stood quietly on top of the main hall, and his expression did not even change.

He was not the only one who heard the discussion, and many of the strong people present were also very powerful, but no one directly pointed it out, maybe even they had doubts about Xingyu's strength.

"Xingyu, you know what you were invited for, right?" asked Zhu Kui with a smile, not seeming to hear those criticisms.

"Master Zhu Huo has already said it when he saw me. Xing Yu said in a calm tone.

Zhu Kui nodded when he heard this, and said with a smile: "In this way, you must be ready, since we are willing to give you the quota, we naturally believe in your strength, during this time, you will recuperate in the Zhu family, and adjust your state, and when the conference starts, we will personally send you there." ”

Xing Yu nodded, and was just about to agree, when a cold drink suddenly came from the side of the hall, and then, a burly, two-meter-tall bald man walked straight out.

"The head of the family is slow, I wish Yuan has something to say. ”

Hearing the words of the big man, Xing Yu's eyes narrowed, judging from the look of the big man, Xing Yu had already guessed what the latter was going to say, it seemed that the words that Zhu Tong reminded him were indeed true. (To be continued.) )
