Feng Yun raised his head and looked at the fiery figure in the sky not far away. He answered with basic courtesy, "Senior, are you asking me?"
"I'm not asking you who else?" Tao Bolin said indifferently.�
There are only a few kinds of heavenly fire in the legend. Every kind of heavenly fire had a fatal temptation to any powerful martial artist. To alchemists, it was even more extreme.
Heavenly fire could not only increase a martial artist's combat strength, but it was also the best fire seed for refining pills. It could refine medicinal Pills of a higher grade, and the quality was even purer.
Tao Bolin had already been famous for several hundred years. Not only was he a Sovereign Rank super expert, but he was also a high grade alchemist. He was the most stunning and most famous figure in the Northern Border.
He had gone through all kinds of hardships, traversed countless mountains, and finally found and subdued the Nether Fire flame.�
However, when he saw a young man who was no more than twenty years old actually possessed the Heavenly fire better than his, he felt jealous. If he obtained Feng Yun's heavenly flame, his alchemy will improved greatly.
Feng Yun replied while playing with the fire. "This heavenly flame was gifted by my master, I don't know its name."
Tao Bolin looked at Feng Yun with a frown and said, "What master? Are you disciple of an alchemist?"
"No, my master is a weapon refiner. I am also a weapon refiner!" Feng Yun replied. For some reason, he felt that there was something wrong with this old man.
'Is he after my heavenly flame?' Feng Yun thought in his mind. There was no doubt that his flame was special, normal flames can't evolves but his flame can. It can upgrade by devouring other heavenly flames. Naturally, Feng Yun couldn't tell this to the old man or others, it was his secret.
Tao Bolin looked at carefully, after giving Feng Yun a long glance he didn't linger here anymore, he went straight into the pavilion. 'Obtain Gu Clan's divine objects first, after that, I will deal with this brat.' Tao Bolin thought in his mind as a cruel glint appeared in his eyes.
"Hurry up and go in!" The leader of the Devil Shadow Sect shouted. He led the remaining eight people under him and rushed into the pavilion.
The Vice Alliance Master of the Seven Dao Alliance also exclaimed, "Let's go in as well. We can't let any evil beings descend into this world!"� All of them rushed into the pavilion.
Nangong Lia clenched his fists tightly. Without hesitation, he plunged into the pavilion. The two people behind him also followed him in.
Feng Yun looked at the people who rushing into the pavilion, he tried to scan the interior of the pavilion with his divine sense, but couldn't. Something was blocking his senses.
He didn't know why but his guts were telling him that there was huge danger inside the pavilion.
"You guys wait here. I am going first, I will call you." Feng Yun said to Long Shu and Poisonous Scorpion.
The poisonous scorpion interrupted Feng Yun, "Young master, you shouldn't go inside."
"I will be fine! You two wait for my call, if i won't retern in an hour, leave the Gu City!" Feng Yun said to them. He didn't give them chance to refusal.
"Young Master, you should be carefull of the old man. I think he is after your flame." The poisonous scorpion warned Feng Yun. He was old villain himself cheat many peoples, how could he miss the old man's weird behaiviour.�
"I know!" Feng Yun replied then he nodded towards Long Shu before going in.
Only two people left outside, Long Shu and Scorpion.
At this time, a faint and strange fragrance drifted out of the pavilion.
"What... what is this smell?" Long Shu smelled it and asked in confusion.
Poisonous Scorpion also smelled the smell and his expression became shocked. "This... this is the smell of the sacrificial Gu. Could it be that what Daoist Kuang said is true?"
"What Gu smell?" Long Shu asked in confusion.
"Quick, fly up there first!" The poisonous scorpion cried out in alarm. It flew away from the ground and into the air. Long Shu also followed.
At this moment, not far away, a black mass of something was squeezing towards the pavilion.
"What... what is that thing?" Long Shu said with a frown.
Poisonous scorpions said lightly, "Poison Insects!"
He stared blankly at the rapidly crawling thing on the ground. It was truly a dense swarm of poisonous insects.
There were Earth Rank poisonous ants, Sky Two blood centipedes, and Heaven Rank black-horned pythons...
Countless poisonous creatures emerged from the surrounding mountains.
He felt their scalps go numb as they watched from the sky.
"What's going on?" Long Shu was puzzled.
The poisonous scorpion replied, "It should be the Heavenly Gu Divine Cauldron that is using the Gu in it. The fragrance of this Gu is very attractive to the poisonous insects. Once these poisonous insects enter the Divine Cauldron, they will be melted. But who is using the Gu in the house? Could it be that there are still experts from the Venomous Insect Clan living inside? Or it could be a strong resentful soul?"
"Oh, no we have to warn Feng Yun!" Long Shu couldn't help but exclaimed suddenly.�
Long Shu took out a voice transmission and tried to contact Feng Yun but couldn't.�
"I'm going in!" Long Shu said before going into the pavilion. The Poisonous Scorpion has no choice but to follow her.
...
"No, this place is full of resentful souls. No one can survive here for so long. The ones that are offering the Gu in here might be powerful resentful souls or remnant souls," Feng Yun said solemnly.
"What? Can resentful souls use the Gu?" Long Shu and Poisonous Scorpion exclaimed.
"Perhaps he is not as simple as the resentful soul. It is possible that he has already developed a consciousness to control everything here," Feng Yun said.
"Then... what should we do?" Long Shu was puzzled.
"Lets go in!" Feng Yun said without fear and moved into the pavilion.
After entering the pavilion, he did not find any traces of others. He only felt his vision turn black and his surroundings became pitch black. A cold and fearful aura assailed his nose.
"What's going on?" Feng Yun was confused. He immediately used his soul force to see what was going on.
Tao Bolin was not far away from him. He seemed to be in a panic. He was surrounded by Earth Grade flames. He held the Five Directional Cauldron tightly in his hand, as if he was on guard against any unknown injuries.
"It seems like this old man can't see anything just like me!" Feng Yun thought to himself.
Then, he saw Devil Shadow Sect, Seven Dao Alliance, Nangong Lia and the others coming in one after another.
Looking at their panicked expressions, he knew that they were also frightened by the dark world.
At this moment, Tao Boling, who was not far away using his domain. A sea of fire surrounded him, dispersing the visibility around him.
However, Feng Yun noticed that Tao Bolin's domain seemed to have been suppressed. The sea of fire could only spread two meters away.
If it was outside, with Tao Bolin's ability, it wouldn't be a problem for everything within five hundred miles to be covered in a sea of fire.
"There's something strange here!" Feng Yun thought worriedly.
Then, he looked in front of him, his pupils contracting.
He saw a hunched Old Woman in front of him. This Old Woman was wearing the uniform of the Venomous Insect Clan. She was kowtowing heavily and seemed to have fallen asleep. In front of her was a small cauldron.
This small cauldron was very exquisite. It looked very ancient and elegant. The walls of the cauldron were carved with strange patterns that looked extremely profound. Wisps of white smoke were emitted from the small cauldron, and the white smoke was mixed with a slightly strange smell.
"Heaven... Heaven Gu Divine Cauldron!" Feng Yun could not help but exclaim.
Although he had never seen what the Heaven Gu Cauldron looked like, before he left Venomous Insect Sacrifice City, the high priest had described the appearance of the Heaven Gu Cauldron to him, so he recognized it at a glance.
Although the high priest had asked him to help him find the Heavenly Gu Cauldron, to Feng Yun, the Heavenly Venomous Insect Divine Arts was what he needed the most.
"Since you are here, it's fine to take back the Heaven Gu Divine Cauldron. I just don't know if this granny will cut off her love or not. Maybe it would be better to let her go to Venomous Insect Sacrifice City together," Feng Yun murmured with a disappointed expression.
Then, his heart shook. He exclaimed again, "She... She doesn't have any life aura. Could it be...
"A fully condensed resentful soul!" Feng Yun couldn't help but glance at Old Woman.
That's right. She is also a resentful soul. However, she is very different from other resentful souls. Her resentment is especially heavy, and she still has a trace of consciousness before she died. Her strength is very terrifying. He estimate that she was a Divine Rank expert when she was alive.
"Divine Rank?" Feng Yun took a deep breath and muttered. At this moment, he finally guess what was the black curtain was.
This place is covered by a black curtain. It is the manifestation of her great domain. In this great domain, she is the true ruler. Once she doesn't let them out, none of them will be able to live!
A great domain was a divine ability that only an expert of Divine Rank could do.
Tao Bolin's small domain was originally nothing in this great domain. On the other hand, Feng Yun hasn't even touched the domain yet, he started became little worry.
He was stuck in the domain of Divine Rank expert, it was almost impossible for him to break out from this domain.
They need to kill the old woman if they want to break this great domain. Otherwise, they will not be able to leave from this great domain.�
Feng Yun wanted to try something but saw Old Woman raised her hands slightly, the poisonous insects seemed to hear her call and rushed into the cauldron.
Feng Yun saw that there were many poisonous creatures around him, which gave him goosebumps.
"This... just like what Daoist Kuang said, she's using the cauldron!" Feng Yun said in surprise.
Feng Yun muttered in his mind, 'She is just doing what she usually does when she was alive, so she is only doing it unconsciously now.'
Feng Yun stared at the poisonous creatures crawling into the small cauldron one after another. As if he didn't fear death at all, waves of strong Gu fragrance filled this world.
