On the tenth day after the heavenly fire fell, several large holes were burned through the largest protective barrier of the Yanjian Sect. Fortunately, within these ten days, the leaders had returned to the sect, selected several places, blasted out many caves, and hid most of the mortals inside the caves.
As for the inner and outer disciples of the Yanjian Sect, when the protective barrier rose, their tokens all received a unified command: enter the Cliff of Repentance. The Cliff of Repentance, once a deep abyss used to punish erring disciples, now unexpectedly became a powerful natural barrier.
On the twentieth day after the heavenly fire fell, the small barriers on the major peaks of Yanjian Sect were burned through one after another by the falling fireballs, leaving only the barrier on the main peak still struggling to hold on.
On the 30th day after the heavenly fire fell, the barrier on the main peak of Yanjian Sect was broken. From then on, all the territories of Yanjian Sect were exposed to the heavenly fire.

The protective formation of the meeting hall was fully activated. Logically, people in the hall should not be able to feel the situation outside, but the disciples in the hall still felt the slight vibration of the floor under their feet, heard the vague rumbling sound from outside, and heard a dazzling white light from outside the window.
During these short thirty days, the disciples who usually felt that time was not enough finally felt what it meant to feel like the days were long.
"I wonder how Master and the others are doing." A disciple muttered worriedly. Even though he deliberately suppressed his voice, all the disciples in the hall still heard it.
"The skyfire is so powerful, will Master and the others be alright?" A usually well-protected female disciple asked the brothers and sisters around her with tears in her eyes, "I don't want them to be in any danger. When will this skyfire end?"
"It's okay, we can hold on." The usually taciturn senior sister patted the female disciple's shoulder gently, but her voice was choked with sobs.
Silent sadness spread throughout the hall, making it difficult for those present to breathe.
"Everyone, think about our master who is fighting the heavenly fire outside, and think about our fellow disciples. We still have things to do, and nothing can happen!" Nianshu's calm and steady voice spread throughout the hall.
What makes Nianshu different from others is that she doesn't think that the heavenly fire came suddenly. She had received some news from Yan Baibai a long time ago, and she was mentally prepared. The current situation is much better than she expected, and her mentality is different.
"Junior Sister Nian, what do you mean by this?" Shi Lidan's heart skipped a beat and he asked.
"Everyone, have you ever thought about why the sect leader settled us here?" Nianshu said slowly when he saw that everyone's attention was focused on him.
"Because the barrier of the main peak is the final barrier, maybe Master and the others didn't expect the sky fire to be so powerful." A disciple expressed his inner thoughts.
"Also, the meeting hall is a very good defensive weapon." Another disciple added.
"These are only some of the reasons. Leaving us here with the coming of the Heavenly Fire isn't the best solution." She had been thinking a lot during her time studying. Amidst the bewildered gazes of the crowd, she continued to explain, "You should have noticed. The elders haven't appeared before us for a while. They actually knew about this disaster."
After reading the book, most people didn't look too surprised by this. I guess everyone hadn't been empty-headed for the past 30 days.
"Reading, do you mean that the elders put us here for some other reason?" Yang Kuan didn't think too much about it, he just focused on the main point.
Reading nodded: "If I'm not mistaken."
"That's great!" Yang Kuan clenched his fists, making them creak. He said angrily, "I've practiced hard for so many years, but a natural disaster struck and I can't do anything. It's so frustrating!"
Who doesn’t have the dream of being a hero who saves lives and heals the wounded at a young age?
"What is it, Senior Sister, please tell me quickly!" a disciple asked impatiently.
"The elders didn't carry the magical weapon that shrunk the meeting hall with them, probably because they were afraid they couldn't protect it themselves. But the safest way is to throw the meeting hall into the Cliff of Repentance. It's 100% safe there."
Everyone listened quietly to the analysis read by the teacher, and the negative emotions such as sadness and despair that initially spread in the hall gradually subsided.
The purpose of studying was to prevent everyone from continuing to indulge in negative emotions. Anyway, no one knew when the fire would end, so she was not in a hurry to tell the answer in her heart, but analyzed it bit by bit. The longer the time, the better. The key was to guide everyone's emotions.
"All the barriers of the sect have been broken. What should we do if we want to protect the mortals hiding in the sect?" Nianshu asked.
"Take them to the Cliff of Repentance?" Yang Kuan just heard Nianshu mention the Cliff of Repentance. Only then did he remember that he had gone through the Jindan Thunder Tribulation at the Cliff of Repentance. He thought of his deceased Junior Sister Yan and the depth of the Cliff of Repentance. It was actually a good place to hide from the heavenly fire.
"That shouldn't be the case. It's freezing cold under the Cliff of Repentance. Mortals can't stay there for long." Yang Kuan was immediately refuted by another disciple who continued, "Those hiding under the Cliff of Repentance should all be disciples of our sect."
Nianshu nodded, but before she could continue, someone else said, "I think those in charge will blast a few large holes in the ground and hide the mortals inside."
All the disciples and people present nodded, and it was obvious that everyone thought what she said was right.
"After all this talk, you still haven't gotten to the point!" Yang Kuan, looking as if he was sharpening his sword, shouted, "What secret mission do we have? My blade is thirsty for energy!"
