Chapter 116: Flames Fall into the City
Flame City is located in the north of Taigu City, separated by more than a hundred miles.
Shen Xing and Ji Liuyue returned to Taigu City from Dajing, rested in Taigu City, and then headed directly north to Flame City.
At this time, the two of them had traveled about sixty miles, the sun was not very sufficient, but the weather was unusually hot, the temperature was frighteningly high, and it was deserted here, and the ground was not a single grass. As far as the eye can see, the earth is full of cracks, black and yellow.
Shen Xing wiped the sweat from his head and said, "I used to think that Fire City was just a legend, but I didn't expect it to be a Fire City. Before it even gets there, the temperature can heat people to death, and if some beasts run here, they will be roasted directly. ”
Ji Liuyue's face was extremely bad, her physique was a water attribute, she was a water walker, water and fire were restrained, she had been running her true qi all the way, forcing the cold qi out of her body to protect herself and Shen Xing, otherwise she would have been roasted to death by this hot weather.
Shen Xing looked at Ji Liuyue's face and sighed lightly: "It's not a way to go on like this, you won't be able to survive before you reach Flame City, wait for a way to completely avoid this fiery aura." ”
Ji Liuyue frowned, pondered, and after a while, she spoke: "The five elements are mutually reinforcing, and only the five elements can enter and exit at will in Flame City. Originally, it was no problem for me to go to Flame City alone, but now I have to protect you, I can't bear the pressure of two people alone, so it's better to let me go alone, and you return to Taikoo City and wait for me to come back. ”
Shen Xing shook his head resolutely and said, "Fire Walkers are already difficult to get along with, if you are asked to borrow the Fire Spirit Bead for me, they will disagree even more. ”
"If you insist on going to Flame City, there is only one way to do it. Ji Liuyue stopped and suddenly grabbed Shen Xing's hands.
Shen Xing was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "This lonely man and widow in the wilderness, don't pull and pull like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold ......."
Ji Liuyue's face flushed, and she said angrily: "What do you think, you have the power of the five elements, but you are not very proficient." However, I can transmit the true qi in my body to you, because my attribute is water, and I can resist the heat for you. ”
Shen Xing felt a cool breath flow from Ji Liuyue's palm into his body, which was very comfortable. And Ji Liuyue's face was even worse.
Because of the excessive output of true qi, Ji Liuyue suddenly fainted and was embraced by Shen Xing.
Shen Xing was a little embarrassed, it was the first time he had such intimate contact with Ji Liuyue, and his heart was jumping. Fortunately, Ji Liuyue soon came to her senses, she gently pushed Shen Xing's shoulder, her face was slightly red, and she lowered her head and said, "As long as I am by your side, the water attribute true qi injected into your body will automatically operate, so that it will share some of the pressure for you." ”
"Thank you. Shen Xing stared at Ji Liuyue's gaze, with a different look in his eyes.
Ji Liuyue dodged Shen Xing's gaze, turned around, pointed ahead and said, "Let's speed up our pace and reach Flame City as early as possible, so that we can reduce some of the time to resist the heat of the Flames." Otherwise I won't be able to hold out for long. ”
"Speed up!" Shen Xing shouted, slapped his head violently, shook his head, and said, "I'm so stupid, I've absorbed the power of the Earth Spirit Bead, and I've become one with the earth." As soon as my mind moves, I will escape into the ground, and we will just run away from the ground, so that we can avoid the heat. ”
said that it was too late, Shen Xing directly grabbed Ji Liuyue's hand and took her into the ground.
After driving for a distance, Shen Xing broke through the ground with Ji Liuyue, and a fiery breath came to his face, burning his body. In front of him, a sea of fire was surging, and the raging fire roared like a roaring beast.
It is a city of fire, an ancient city that has been hidden by fire. Shen Xing and Ji Liuyue stopped in front of the city, not knowing how to get in at all.
Just when the two of them hesitated, a red-haired man suddenly walked out of the sea of fire.
The man walked out of the fire city with his bare feet as if he were walking on the ground, and walked in front of Shen Xing and the others, revealing a fierce and vicious look, his eyes were hideous, and he was very scary.
"Get out!"
The red-haired man didn't say a word, he roared and rolled out, threw up his long sleeves, and the sea of fire behind him immediately erupted with magma rage, attacking Shen Xing and the others.
Shen Xing was keenly opposite, and immediately exerted the power of thick earth to erect an earthen wall in front of his and Ji Liuyue's bodies.
The fiery magma hit the earth wall, breaking the earth wall, Ji Liuyue flew up in the air, screamed, waved her arms, as if dancing in the air, and a dark cloud immediately floated in the air, and a heavy rain poured down, extinguishing the raging fire that came to her face.
The red-haired man was furious, pointed at Ji Liuyue in the air, and shouted: "I didn't expect that he was also from the Five Elements Sect, why did you help outsiders steal the Fire Spirit Bead!"
Ji Liuyue fell down and shouted, "You wicked man, why did we ever want to steal the Fire Spirit Bead?"
The red-haired man smiled disdainfully and said, "Ordinary people who dare to come to this Fire City, they all come here to steal the Fire Spirit Bead, do you think Lao Tzu is a fool?"
Shen Xing smiled lightly, stepped forward, and said to the red-haired man, "It seems that the Firewalker is really as hot-tempered as the rumors, and it is really extraordinary when I see it today." ”
The red-haired man shouted, his voice was extremely high, and said: "You kid don't pat on the back, Lao Tzu doesn't eat you." Since you said you weren't here to steal the Fire Spirit Orb, what are you going to do?"
Shen Xing looked at the red-haired man, and found that although this person was short-tempered, he had an upright personality, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Actually, I am a descendant of Lingdi. ”
"What!" The red-haired man exclaimed, and said in shock: "Is the Lingtu clan finally going to rise again, I have heard a lot of legends about the Lingtu clan, but I didn't expect to see the descendants of the Lingda today." ”
Ji Liuyue frowned, walked to Shen Xing's side, and whispered in his ear: "Why did you reveal your identity so quickly, have you forgotten what your mother-in-law said?"
Shen Xing chuckled and whispered: "The person in front of me looks fierce and vicious, and he lives in the Flame City, no one wants to get close to him, so I'm not afraid that he will leak my identity." Besides, if I don't identify myself, he'll continue to prevent us from entering the city. ”
While the two of them whispered, the red-haired man also fell into a struggle, showing a hesitant look. He scratched his head, puffed up his chest to look at Shen Xing, and said, "Even if you are a descendant of Lingdi, I can't be derelict in my duties. It is my responsibility to protect the Flame City and the Fire Spirit Orb, and no one should be allowed to trespass on it. ”
Shen Xing had already thought of this result, so he showed a look of pity, shook his head and said: "It's a pity that I have the power of the thick earth, originally I wanted to use the power of the thick earth to consolidate the defense of the Flame City, but I can't use the defense technique if I can't enter the city." ”
The red-haired man looked even more shocked when he heard this, and exclaimed, "You have actually obtained the power of the earth, so the power of the earth spirit bead has been obtained by you?"
Shen Xing smiled and nodded.
"My master said that those who can absorb the power of the Five Spirit Beads are all given by Heaven, and they are the only people in heaven and earth who can integrate the five elements into one. In this way, you are the Mandate of Heaven, you are the Mandate of Heaven that integrates the five elements!" The red-haired man was very excited, and he quickly walked to Shen Xing's side, knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "You Yan knocks on the Mandate of Heaven!"
Ji Liuyue looked stunned, and Shen Xing was also a second monk at a loss. He originally wanted to make up an excuse to explain that he was here to help Flame City, but he didn't expect to learn about the Destiny of Heaven.
Shen Xing thought about it for a while, and suddenly found that he had met the Red Fire Saint Ji when he had obtained the power of the Earth Spirit Bead, and in the process of communicating with the Red Fire Saint Ji, he learned about his ancestors six thousand years ago. Now I met the guardian of Flame City and the Fire Spirit Bead, and I knew about the Destiny of Heaven. It is speculated that when he goes to find the other three spirit beads, he may also get some secrets.
Thinking of this, Shen Xing finally understood why the ancestor had to guide him to find the Five Spirit Beads. It turns out that not only can you get the power of the five spirit beads, but the most important thing is to be able to learn about the secrets of the spirit beads from the mouth of the guardian of the five spirit beads.
Shen Xing was finally relieved at this moment, picked up You Yan, the guardian of the Fire Spirit Bead who was kneeling on the ground, showed a smile, and said, "It turns out that you also know about the Mandate of Heaven, originally I was embarrassed to borrow the power of the divine fire in the Fire Spirit Bead, but now everything is easy to say." ”
You Yan laughed out loud and said, "The Five Elements Sect people of the past generations guarded the Five Spirit Beads in order to wait for the arrival of the Heavenly Destiny One Day and let him take back the power of the Five Elements that belonged to him. I didn't expect the Destiny to be discovered, and he was also a descendant of Lingdi. I have nothing to stop, you go back to the city with me, and I will personally send you the power of divine fire. ”
Shen Xing was also overjoyed, so he followed him to Flame City.
However, before he had taken two steps, there was a sudden loud bang in the city, and a wave of heat broke through the sky, breaking through the scorching flames, like an invisible whirlwind, sweeping endless flames and heading straight into the sky.
You Yan exclaimed, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted: "It's not good, someone has stolen the Fire Spirit Bead!"
Just as the three of them were trying their best to rush into the Flame City, in an instant, the sea of fire was monstrous, and a deafening roar came out of the sea of fire.
Shen Xing looked into the sky, and a huge purple-maned black-pupiled horse slowly emerged!
