Volume 2 Dragon Bird Chapter 61: Flame Spirit
Xue Zhuyong's psychological fluctuations went through a process from extreme tension to astonishment.
Because he saw with his own eyes that Mo Yan completed the breakthrough from a foundation-building cultivator to a golden elixir cultivator while he was unconscious.
In other words, if someone asked Mo Yan how he broke through the golden elixir, his answer should be that he condensed the golden elixir after waking up from a nap.
It's outrageous.
Then, Xue Zhuyong thought of Mo Yan’s age.
A twenty-year-old Jindan cultivator?
Xue Zhuyong was slightly shocked, but also a little proud.
There shouldn't be many people in this world who are more talented than my son in cultivation, right?
Since all of Mo Yan's injuries have healed, his cultivation has even broken through a major level, and his condition has reached an unprecedented peak, he should wake up soon.
Xue Zhuyong was looking forward to this in his heart.
At the same time, seeing that the strange fire on Mo Yan's body had all dissipated, he finally stopped worrying and helped Mo Yan up from the cracked ground. At the same time, he took out a set of clothes from the storage ring and put them on him.
——Because of being burned by the strange fire, the clothes on Mo Yan's body had long been turned to ashes. He was now naked, and his new skin was as white as jade, making women envious.
However, before Xue Zhuyong could wait for Mo Yan to wake up, his eyes suddenly fixed and a look of vigilance appeared on his face.
Because his spiritual sense detected that two people were approaching this place at a very fast speed.
Could it be the dragon demon king?
wrong.
Xue Zhuyong quickly rejected his idea.
The difference in aura between monsters and humans is very obvious, and the aura of the visitor is obviously not that of a monster.
Could they be the natives of this world?
Because of Mo Yan's bad condition, although he had been in this strange place for quite some time, he still had not had time to explore the place thoroughly and had no idea what the situation was like here.
But the transmission process through the space channel, which lasted only a few breaths, made him realize that he had come to a small world isolated from the outside world.
If the visitor is a native of this world, perhaps he can get some useful information from him to help him and Mo Yan leave this world.
I'm afraid the person coming here is not a good person.
While he was thinking, two tiny shadows appeared in the distant sky.
However, the vigilance on Xue Zhuyong's face gradually turned into surprise as the two shadows grew bigger.
Two beams of light stopped in front of him, the spiritual light dissipated, and the figure in them appeared.
"Why is it you?" Xue Zhuyong frowned, very puzzled.
The two people who fell in front of him were a beautiful woman wearing an ancient palace dress and with a noble temperament, and a very handsome young man.
Xue Zhuyong knew both of these people.
Lu Qingshan and Qin Yitian.
"We are here to find you." Lu Qingshan explained, with a hint of joy in his heart.
He really didn't expect that he could find Xue Zhuyong and the other person so easily.
However, Lu Qingshan took another look at Mo Yan who was still in a coma, and felt the aura emanating from him. He was extremely shocked, "Master Mo, what is this? What happened earlier?"
He clearly remembered that before falling into the Lingyuan, Mo Yan was in a state of being burned by strange fire and was in imminent danger.
How come within just a few hours, all his injuries were gone, and he even broke through the foundation-building stage and reached the golden elixir realm.
"I'm not actually very clear about the specific situation. We have to wait until he wakes up and see what he says." Xue Zhuyong replied, and at the same time briefly told Lu Qingshan about the previous situation.
"This should be the flame spirit of the living being automatically recognizing its master." After listening to Xue Zhuyong's description, Qin Yitian said: "But, as such a noble fire, why would it so easily recognize a foundation-building cultivator as its master? I don't know."
Lu Qingshan's eyes flickered and he nodded slightly.
At this moment, Mo Yan's tightly closed eyes suddenly began to tremble slightly.
"He's about to wake up!" Xue Zhuyong exclaimed softly.
After a few breaths, Mo Yan's eyes slowly opened.
It's just shocking.
In Mo Yan's opened eyes, blue and red flames burst out.
These two colors of flames were the Cold Spirit Fire and Red Lotus Fire that Mo Yan refined and controlled.
The two-colored strange fire completely covered Mo Yan's originally ink-black eyes.
At this time, Mo Yan's left pupil was a deep blue, and his right pupil turned into a fiery red, like yin and yang, looking extremely weird.
However, this strange scene did not last too long. After a moment, the two kinds of strange fire completely subsided, and Mo Yan's eyes finally returned to normal.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, Fellow Daoist Qin?" Mo Yan opened his eyes and suddenly saw the faces of Lu Qingshan and Qin Yitian. He asked in disbelief, "Why are you here?"
Qin Yitian glanced at Xue Zhuyong, who also had a questioning look on his face, stood up, and told the two of them the reason and process of what happened.
"Jiaolong Island was actually transformed from the spiritual beast Changsheng Whale?!" Even someone as calm as Xue Zhuyong couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard this shocking secret, and Mo Yan was even more shocked.
"Yes, Lingyuan is the breathing hole of the Immortal Whale." Lu Qingshan nodded and said, "So, you who fell into Lingyuan appeared in this small world."
"It's such a mysterious place, but Fellow Daoist Lu and Fellow Daoist Qin are willing to take the risk to enter in order to save us..." Mo Yan was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
He usually looks like a rational person, but in fact, it's just the opposite. He is an extremely emotional person.
If it weren't for his utmost love and affection, how could he be willing to risk his own life to drag the Dragon Demon King to death together with him?
And the act of Lu Qingshan and Qin Yitian saving him and letting him enter Lingyuan made him feel that he owed them a very, very big favor, so big that he didn't know if he could repay it.
"Since there is an exit, our top priority is to find this exit and leave this world." Xue Zhuyong concluded while staring at Mo Yan's face.
Mo Yan's mood at this moment was very complicated.
Since he woke up, he has never looked at Xue Zhuyong directly.
He had previously believed that he would not live long.
When a man is about to die, his words are good. So he no longer wanted to pursue the matter too much, and before he fell into a coma, he said that he forgave Xue Zhuyong.
As a result of fate, he did not die.
Then the problem arises. His current situation is like a big landlord who gave his land to all tenants before his death, but then came back to life. It is extremely embarrassing.
Even if he took back what he said, he couldn't do it.
But it is impossible to say that I really have no grudge against Xue Zhuyong.
Shaking his head, Mo Yan stopped dwelling on it.
Let’s leave these things to worry about later. The most important thing right now is to find an exit to leave here and return to the outside world.
"People's understanding of the Immortal Whale is only superficial, and there is no mention of what the small world it nurtures is like. Our biggest problem now is that we have too little information." Lu Qingshan analyzed: "So, it would be best for us to find a native in this world who can communicate with us and obtain some valuable information."
"It's just that, although there are lives in this world, there doesn't seem to be anything we can communicate with."
Mo Yan's eyes moved slightly, "Perhaps, I can find a native who meets Friend Lu's requirements?"
"Um?"
Mo Yan stretched out his left hand and spread out his palm. A ball of green flame suddenly emerged from his palm and quickly transformed into a human form, with even the facial features clearly visible.
"Is this the fire spirit of the Flame of Life?" Lu Qingshan reacted.
"Ding ding ding!" The fire spirit jumped happily in Mo Yan's palm, calling out non-stop.
"You can call him Yan," Mo Yan pointed at the Fire Spirit and introduced him, "He was the one who saved my life. Moreover, he is the strange fire bred in this world. He is the most ancient and primitive creature in this world. He is also the native that Fellow Daoist Lu is looking for."
"What is the reason that would make the Flame of Life recognize you as its master?" Lu Qingshan asked puzzledly.
As soon as Lu Qingshan asked the question, Qin Yitian, who was standing gracefully beside him, pursed her lips, her eyes shining like jade, and she glanced at Lu Qingshan in a very subtle way.
Lu Qingshan did not notice Qin Yitian's little action.
"I can only say that I am lucky," Mo Yan sighed, and told what he knew: "This small world is called Yanling Realm. Just as Fellow Daoist Lu saw before, Yanling Realm is neatly divided into two completely different parts, one green and one red, one full of vitality and the other lifeless."
"But a long time ago, the Yanling Realm was not what it is now. At that time, there were no green plants in the Yanling Realm. All places were filled with magma, just like the land under our feet now. Although it was extremely desolate, it was full of vitality. The reason why this world is called the Yanling Realm is because under the action of the surging vitality, a strange creature, the Yanling, was born in the magma. The Yanling's appearance is exactly the same as the magma, mixed in the magma, and it is impossible to distinguish it. And Yan, he was also bred in this environment, and then slowly gained intelligence."
"This is Yan Ling's paradise, Yan Ling's world."
"But things change dramatically. Suddenly one day, another kind of creature appeared in the Yanling Realm, the wood spirit.
Wood spirits live on green plants. Just like fire spirits live in magma, wood spirits usually live in plants.
Under the influence of vitality, the number of wood spirits began to grow and expand rapidly.
These wood spirits devoured piece after piece of magma land, transforming it into another kind of lush green landscape.
The survival condition of the Yan Ling is magma. After being swallowed by the magma, the Yan Ling will slowly lose their vitality and die.
As the Mu Ling clan expanded, they were no longer satisfied with their original seclusion, and gradually developed to the point where they wanted to share the Yan Ling Realm with the Yan Ling clan. As a result, the number of Yan Ling clan members was reduced by more than half.
It would be fine if they were just evenly matched, but the Wood Spirits are still not satisfied with this and are still constantly squeezing the living space of the Flame Spirits.
The Yanling clan also tried to resist.
But it seemed that there was some external will at work, helping Mu Ling to dominate this world and easily disintegrated Yan Ling's offensive.
The Yanling clan's resistance failed.
Therefore, the world today is different from what you thought, where the Flame Spirits and Wood Spirits each occupy half of the territory. In fact, the territory of the Flame Spirit clan is less than one-tenth of this Flame Spirit world."
Lu Qingshan was silent.
He has figured out the reasons for the twists and turns in the evolution of the Yanling Realm.
The external will that Yan mentioned was actually the will of the Immortal Whale.
Wood spirits can bring countless vitality to the Yanling world.
If a world wants to continue to expand and improve, the basis of everything is the evolution of life.
Therefore, the Longevity Whale must hope that the Wood Spirit Clan will replace the Flame Spirit Clan and control the Flame Spirit Realm.
The Yanling Realm was born from the Immortal Whale, which is the master of this world.
How could Yan Ling defy the will of the Creator?
Mo Yan sighed and continued, "If this trend continues, in another thousand years, the Yanling clan will disappear from the Yanling world forever, and the magma land will completely turn into an oasis. The Yan itself is the flame of living things, a kind of strange fire. Like the Yanling clan, the survival of strange fire also depends on the fire environment. If this situation continues, after the wood spirit completely dominates the Yanling world, he will also disappear from the world along with the extinction of the Yanling clan."
"So, in order to prevent himself from dying and disappearing after a thousand years, he needs to find a host." Lu Qingshan continued.
As long as the strange fire is refined by a cultivator, it can survive based on the cultivator and is not restricted by any other conditions.
"Yes." Mo Yan nodded and said frankly: "It just so happened that I showed up at this time, and he was quite satisfied with me. Seeing that I was in danger, he recognized me as his host, saved me, and helped me break through to the Golden Core Realm."
"So that's it." Lu Qingshan finally realized.
Although Mo Yan's burning body caused him to have a strong affinity with strange fire, that was all he had. There was no possibility that he would make the supreme strange fire like the Flame of Life bow down to him.
That kind of physique is called Long Aotian physique, not Burning physique.
If it weren't for this reason, why would the Flame of Living Beings do such a thing as actively recognizing its master?
"This can be considered a blessing in disguise for you. Not only has your cultivation broken through to the Golden Core Realm, but you have also obtained a strange fire of the level of the Flame of Life." Lu Qingshan exclaimed in amazement.
The strange fire, the Flame of Life, can bring endless benefits to Mo Yan.
Mo Yan's experience is simply a clear template for a protagonist in a drama.
"It's hard to say whether it's a blessing in disguise or not. If I can't leave the Yanling Realm, everything will be in vain." Mo Yan was very calm. He looked at Yan who was jumping in his palm and muttered a few words in a language that Lu Qingshan couldn't understand.
Yan made a thoughtful expression, then started calling out in a dripping voice.
Mo Yan listened attentively to the call of the fire spirit.
After a while, the fire spirit finally stopped its continuous calls and calmed down. It jumped from Mo Yan's palm to his shoulder and looked at Lu Qingshan and the other two.
Mo Yan thought for a moment and said, "I asked Yan, he didn't know where the exit of Yan Lingjie to the outside world was, but he knew that there was an extremely peculiar place in Yan Lingjie. Every once in a while, a powerful vitality would burst out from that place."
Lu Qingshan and Mo Yan looked at each other and both knew what was going on.
This strange place that Yan mentioned is most likely the exit of Lingyuan.
"Then let's hurry over there and find a way to leave here as soon as possible." Xue Zhuyong said.
"No," Mo Yan shook his head, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and said to Xue Zhuyong: "Yan also told me that today, it's not just you and I who appeared in Yan Ling's territory."
"What you mean is..." Xue Zhuyong remembered something.
"Dragon Demon King!" Mo Yan said sternly.
