If the first duel of refining the five-grade pill just made everyone think that Cao Chuan was lucky.

Then after the second alchemy skill competition, everyone looked at Cao Chuan with only fanatical admiration and desire in their eyes.

A young monk who can refine a six-grade pill in less than twenty years represents an infinite future.

And what the Five Great Spiritual Courtyards need is not the past and the present, but the vast future.

So a true genius is what they want, no matter what it takes.

It's just that when Cao Chuan returned to the direction of the Fire Spirit Courtyard and sat down with Li Rengui and the Sword King, those who were still thinking about making contact with Cao Chuan just now closed their mouths and looked away.

Compared with Cao Chuan, who appeared in front of everyone for the first time, Li Rengui and the Sword King, who have lived for hundreds of years and don't know how many times they have appeared in front of everyone, are real passers-by, and there are few who don't know the prestige of the two of them.

Among them, although Li Rengui even relied on luck to refine the five-grade pill, his cultivation realm was infinitely close to the realm of the Tribulation, and he was a strong man with extremely strong strength and quite vicious and vicious methods, and few of the five great spiritual academies dared to provoke him.

The Sword King is even more terrifying.

The few knives hanging on his body were all forged from human blood, and the strength of the Tribulation Realm One Heaven may not be considered the top in the entire Demon Venerable, but it is enough to be called an invincible existence in the Five Great Spirit Courtyards.

Coupled with his fiery temper and personality that is not afraid of anyone, almost no one dares to provoke him.

Now that Li Rengui and the Sword King are personally escorting Cao Chuan, the people who were eyeing Cao Chuan just now and wanted to find an opportunity to take Cao Chuan away have all died down, pretending not to know anything, for fear of being targeted by Li Rengui and the Sword King.

At the same time, Cao Chuan, who returned to his seat and was protected by Li Rengui and the Sword King, began to close his eyes and recuperate.

Although it took him a very short time to refine the Six-Rank Refining God Tuohai Spirit Pill, he did have to pay a corresponding price for doing so.

Now he only felt that his soul was a little weak, and he needed to rest for a while and quickly recover his soul strength.

Li Rengui and the Sword King were like two door gods, blocking all the sights that looked here.

Until Cao Chuan exhaled a breath of turbidity, opened his eyes and regained clarity.

At this time, in the ring, the competition between the Fire Spirit Academy, the Water Spirit Courtyard and the Wood Spirit Courtyard had come to an end.

As before, the Fire Spirit Academy still won an unmatched victory in the ring competition.

Next, as long as the Earth Spirit Academy and the Golden Spirit Academy are defeated again, even if they lose in the later skill competition of refining pills, the Fire Spirit Academy can still win the first place in this Spirit Academy competition and continue to sit firmly on the first throne.

Therefore, Cao Chuan did not continue to stay in the arena, but temporarily left Tianhuo City with Wen Jinghao.

Two days ago, the two of them had already visited the entire Tianhuo City.

Now, they were going to go to the huge Sacred Flame Plain outside the Heavenly Fire City.

Because there is a legend about the Holy Fire Plain, Cao Chuan is quite interested.

Same as the Fire Spring.

According to legend, the formation of the Sacred Fire Plain did not come from heaven and earth.

Rather, it comes from a fire that falls from the sky, like a fire lotus.

It is said that hundreds of years ago, when the human and demon races were just beginning to multiply in this land.

Suddenly, one day there was a loud thunderstorm, and the wind swept through almost the entire world with sand and dust.

Soon after, the thunder and wind and sand suddenly stopped, and a fireball turned the whole world into an incredibly hot fireball.

In the fireball, there were bursts of faint light, constantly attracting living beings to set themselves on fire.

Until this fireball landed straight in the direction of the original flame.

As the fireball falls into the Flame Plain.

The Great Plains, which was uninhabited at the time, was smashed out in an instant, a deep hollow with no end in sight, and in the hollow, there were often lines of fire, and then burned all around, burning everything to the ground.

It's just strange that these flames that scorch the entire Great Plains do not cause damage to living beings like the fireballs do, but rather provoke the vitality of the Great Plains to become stronger and stronger as the flames gradually extinguish.

But it was just one night.

The flame began to grow more alive than before.

Many demon beasts and plants that had never appeared in the Demon Realm began to appear, and the spiritual power and evil qi that permeated the heavens and the earth were even richer and purer than before.

As a result, more and more demons began to live in the Holy Fire Plain.

But their real purpose was to find the fireball that had descended on the Sacred Flame Plain.

It's just that apart from the Heavenly Flame found in the Burning Spring, no one has been able to find the existence of a second flame for hundreds of years.

Therefore, the people who looked for the fire back then have already given up, but the legends of the year are all false, and only the mother fire of heaven and earth is true.

But Cao Chuan didn't need to listen to these rumors.

Because he could sense the existence of other fires by himself, and after coming to Heavenly Fire City, this feeling became stronger and stronger, even more obvious than when he encountered the Heavenly Flame Mother Fire in the Fire Spring.

This made Cao Chuan very curious about what kind of existence was the fire that had shrouded the entire Holy Fire Plain in flames in the first place.

This kind of powerful power is much stronger than the Heavenly Mother Fire in the hollow under the Fire Burning Spring.

And the Mother Fire of Heaven and Earth itself is already a god-like existence.

"Could it be that it was the real divine fire that descended on the Holy Fire Plain in the first place?"

"That makes sense."

After leaving Heavenly Fire City, Cao Chuan sensed the direction of the fire while guessing the truth of the legend hundreds of years ago.

Meantime.

Wen Jinghao is also using the secret technique of fire detection to help Cao Chuan find clues to the fire.

That's it.

The two of them, who had been walking and walking, had unconsciously walked to a cliff.

If you look down from above, you can see that beneath this cliff is a bottomless black abyss.

However, in such an abyss, Cao Chuan faintly saw the existence of buildings in the darkness, and there were constantly flickering candles jumping and walking in it.

"Could it be that there are creatures beneath the abyss?"

Cao Chuan, who didn't expect that the induction between the fires would bring him here, did not rush down, but very cautiously contacted Mu Qingqiu in the depths of the sea first.

He thought that Mu Qingqiu might know something about this.

However, it backfired.

When Mu Qingqiu was awakened and carefully observed the abyss below the cliff, he immediately shook his head and said: "I have never been here, and I have never heard of this place in other people's mouths, and there is not the slightest spiritual power and evil qi under the abyss, so I can't help you, if you want to know the truth, you can only go down and see it with your own eyes." ”

Unexpectedly, in this world, there were still things and things that Mu Qingqiu didn't know, and Cao Chuan, who was in a dilemma.

Ever since he was betrayed at the Ancient Beast Ruins, he had become a man who wouldn't take risks without being 100% sure.

Now that Mu Qingqiu doesn't know the situation below, and Wen Jing is good at using secret techniques but can't detect the danger below, in his opinion, there will be no accidents if he does this.

So he was a little shaken and a little reluctant to go down to the abyss.

He feared that there was an unknown danger beneath the abyss.

But as the induction between the fires became stronger and stronger, the curiosity in my heart finally overcame the panic in my heart.

"If there is really a divine fire in the abyss, my cultivation realm will definitely be able to break through several levels in a short period of time, and then I will be able to go back to Zhongzhou to fight Liu Chen in advance."

"I can't bear the child to trap the wolf, and I can't get the tiger if I don't enter the tiger's den."

"Looks like I'm going to have to go down."

In order to become stronger, Cao Chuan gritted his teeth and prepared to go to the abyss below.

So getting ready, Cao Chuan jumped down directly with Wen Jinghao.

Wrapped around their bodies with spiritual power, the two of them in the darkness are like kites that are constantly swaying in the wind, constantly falling.

Until both of their feet guessed the ground where there was substance.

After being down-to-earth.

Cao Chuan urged his spiritual power to illuminate the surroundings.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the spiritual power in his body was running, a slightly dazzling light suddenly lit up in the abyss, which was so dim that he couldn't see his fingers.

Meanwhile.

There were bursts of chaotic footsteps from far and near to Cao Chuan and Wen Jinghao's ears.

Cao Chuan's expression was tense, and he immediately stepped forward half a step to protect Wen Jing behind him, and then drew his sword out of its sheath, and placed the Sky Slashing Sword across his chest, and the evil qi and spiritual power in his body were running at the same time, ready to leave here at any time.

But I waited like this, for a long, long time.

Even the footsteps had disappeared, and Cao Chuan and Wen Jinghao hadn't seen anyone come to them yet.

Instead, a light stood on both sides, and the flames above swayed together in a certain direction, as if guiding the two of them to go in that direction.

Realizing that these lights might be guiding the way, Cao Chuan still remained calm and cautious, and did not withdraw the Sky Slashing Sword into the scabbard, but began to walk forward with Wen Jinghao while guarding the surroundings.

Walking and walking.

The two went deeper and deeper into the darkness.

But under the light of the lights, the two of them could also see clearly that the buildings they had seen on the cliff before were actually just endless strange patterns on the stone walls on both sides.

It's just that the ground under your feet is made of stone bricks, and it is very smooth to walk on, and it doesn't look like it can be formed naturally.

"Could it be that this place was inhabited in the first place?"

"But I don't feel the slightest bit of life, could it be that the people who lived here are dead?"

With suspicion, Cao Chuan and Wen Jinghao walked under the abyss for half an hour.

Finally.

See light at the end of the tunnel.

The black fog in front of me began to dissipate.

Under the light of a lamp, Cao Chuan and Wen Jinghao saw a huge statue that was broken in half not far in front of them, and an equally huge altar held by the statue's hands.

on the altar.

A faint flame that seemed to dissipate at any moment was flickering in it.
