Divine God Against The Heavens

Chapter 691 Ch 691: Fire Spirit

Since Tong Nian was not there, there was no meaning for Ye Xiao to stay in Tong Family anymore. However, since he was already here, he went to see Old Man Tong.

As expected of the injuries caused by a Worldly Divine Lord, Old Man Tong was in a very bad condition and it seemed that he'll die in just a few more months.

Since Ye Xiao was already here, he'll obviously not let the Old Man Tong die. He immediately took out the bottle of Life Force he had devoured from a tree and made the old man drink it.

There were a few people from Tong Family present inside the room including Tong Nian's father. All of them clearly knew who Ye Xiao's master is. As his master's disciple, his abilities shouldn't be low.

So, they let Ye Xiao see the Old Man Tong and if possible, treat him. When they saw Ye Xiao giving a bottle filled with white smoke to Old Man Tong and telling him to drink it, they hesitated if they should stop Ye Xiao or not, however, after thinking about it that Ye Xiao shouldn't dare to harm Old Man Tong inside the Tong Family, they didn't stop him and let him continue to do what he was doing.

As for the Old Man Tong, he completely trusted Ye Xiao. He also knew it was because of Ye Xiao that his master was able to recover from the old injuries and return back to the Divine Realm.

Without showing any hesitation, Old Man Tong drank the Lifeforce. The moment the Life Force entered his body, his body started recovering with a speed visible to the naked eye.

Very soon, almost all the injuries of Old Man Tong healed instantly. There were only a few hidden injuries left behind but they'll also be healed in the future naturally. All it'll take was time.

Everyone praised Ye Xiao and thanked him. Ye Xiao accepted their thanks and after a while, he left the Tong Family.

Tong Family was in an entirely new world. Ye Xiao wanted to see if he could find anything special in this world, so he started visiting many different countries and empires.

He wandered around in this world for another two months, but he failed to see anything that could attract his attention.

Right now, Ye Xiao was in a place called Six Territories. Six Territories were neither a country nor an empire or sacred land. But even so, it was one of the five strongest forces in this world.

As the name says itself, Six Territories were actually called Six Territories because it was ruled by the six different forces at the same time. The Six Territories were divided into six different territories, they are Earth End Territory, Heaven End Territory, Green Stone Territory, Green Cliff Territory, Sky Phoenix Territory, and Sky Dragon Territory.

Currently, Ye Xiao was wandering in the Green Stone Territory. However, even here, he was unable to find anything worth his attraction. He was greatly disappointed and thought that this world has nothing to offer him.

Thinking of this, just as he was about to go to the Fifth Floor of Nine Story Pagoda and leave this world, he saw the sky rumbling at a distance as a large fire pillar pierced through the clouds. This was a phenomenon occurring in the sky and it was the sign of the appearance of a precious treasure.

"Hmm? What is that? What a good omen!"

Ye Xiao's eyes lit up when he saw this pillar of fire. Thinking that he might have come across an opportunity, he immediately rushed towards the fire pillar.

As he got closer, the fire pillar grew larger and the temperature became higher.

When he was only tens of thousands of meters away from the pillar of fire, he realized that there were a lot of martial artists here, and they were all going in the direction of that fire pillar.

Ye Xiao looked around and realized that there were many Ancient Immortals and Dao Body Stage martial artists around. The weakest of them were Late Stage Immortal Emperor Realm martial artists and the strongest one was probably at the Late Stage of Dao Body Stage.

"Hey, brother, do you want to avoid the fire pillar and enter the Underground Fire Cave?"

As Ye Xiao was looking around curiously, a voice suddenly entered Ye Xiao's ears. Ye Xiao turned around and saw a Small-eyed Youth running toward him.

"What do you mean?" Ye Xiao asked.

The youth stopped a few meters away from Ye Xiao, then took out a fiery-red bead and said: "I think you are not from the Six Territories so you don't know. Every 1000 years, the Underground Fire Cave will open, and the fire pillar shooting into the sky is the sign of the opening of the Underground Fire Cave. The Underground Fire Cave is special, it is no ordinary cave. If one wants to stay alive inside the Underground Fire Cave, they'll have to think of ways to deal with the scorching power there. Also, after a martial artist enters the Underground Fire Cave, if they don't have some special method to stop the scorching power from affecting their bodies, it'll dry their vital energy little by little and in the end, that martial artist will die."

"I have this Fire Avoiding Bead with me. After the Underground Fire Cave opens, wearing the Fire Avoiding Pearl on your body can slow down the rate of consumption of your Vital Energy by ten times."

"Oh?"

Ye Xiao squinted his eyes. This was new to him, he had never heard of any Underground Fire Cave like this. But he really was not from the Six Territories, not to mention Six Territories, he wasn't even from this world. So, it is not that surprising if one doesn't know anything about a special cave like the Underground Fire Cave.

However, he soon thought of something.

Was the Underground Fire Cave referring to the area beneath the fire pillar?

Seeing the expression on Ye Xiao's face, the small-eyed youth asked in surprise, "Could it be that you don't even know about this Underground Fire Cave?"

"As you already said, I'm not from the Six Territories." Ye Xiao replied honestly.

"In that case, how about you buy a Fire Avoiding Bead and I'll tell you about the Underground Fire Cave?" The small-eyed youth asked in a crafty voice.

"Alright!"

Ye Xiao did not waste any words and directly nodded. Although he believed in his own strength and knew nothing will happen to him even if he directly entered the Underground Fire Cave, with his wealth, it'll not matter even if he were to buy a Fire Avoiding Bead.

After the transaction was completed, the small-eyed youth laughed and said, "This Underground Fire Cave opens every 1000 years exactly at this place. As for the reason, no one knows. It is more like a secret realm. The most special thing about the Underground Fire Cave is that every time it opens, there is bound to be a Fire Spirit inside."

"Fire spirit?"

After hearing this name, Ye Xiao raised his eyebrows. He knew about the Fire Spirits. Fire Spirits were the lifeforms born in a place filled with fire just like Fire Soul. However, unlike Fire Souls, Fire Spirits are intelligent beings. Normally, Fire Spirit doesn't have any use, however, once a Fire Spirit devour a Fire Soul, they'll gain control over that Fire Soul and could manipulate the Fire Soul as they want.

Also, let's say a martial artist is fighting intensely with his enemies and is greatly injured. That martial artist also used up all of his or her spiritual energy and doesn't have an ounce of strength left to continue fighting. If he or she has a Fire Spirit, it'll come out from their bodies at the crucial time and fight the opponents while controlling the Fire Soul.

At a critical moment, one can run while letting the Fire Spirit fight and distract the opponent, saving their life.

It was only one of the Fire Spirit's usage. Another usage of the Fire Spirit that is extremely important and valuable to an Alchemist is that, once an Alchemist refined any pill using the Fire Spirit, Fire Spirit will learn how to refine that pill. After that, even without the alchemist needing to move his fingers, the Fire Spirit could refine that pill on its own.

Also, with the Fire Spirit in possession, a martial artist's affinity with Fire Element will increase by leaps and bounds.

There is also some other usage of Fire Spirits. Fire Spirits are several times rarer than rare Fire Souls.

Ye Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard that every time the Underground Fire Cave opens, there is bound to be a Fire Spirit inside.

He already has the Super Sun Fire Soul. If he were to get the Fire Spirit and let it acknowledge him as its master, at that time, after the Fire Spirit will swallow the Super Sun Fire Soul, it'll definitely be proved to be a great help in the future.
