Chapter 649 Master HP
"Xian'er..."
Zhang Qinghe looked at Long Xianer with love in his eyes.
Ning Daoran almost vomited.
"Master, being a guest official is no small matter."
Ning Daoran groaned and said, "Can you give me a few days to think about it? If I have made a decision, I will take the initiative to find the Sect Master."
"Can!"
Long Xian'er smiled and nodded: "In that case, I will wait for Fellow Daoist Ning to come to my house."
So, after exchanging a few more pleasantries, the two left.
…
Inside the cave.
Ning Daoran pondered in silence.
"Are you hesitating, sir?"
Xiaobai carried a small stool and sat aside, massaging the young master's legs.
"Not really."
Ning Daoran frowned and said, "It's just that becoming a guest official of the Divine Fire Sect is a troublesome matter after all. If the Divine Fire Sect encounters any trouble, do you think it's better for me to take action or not?"
“There’s no need to worry about this.”
Xiao Bai said, "In the Xinghai Divine Territory, only the Divine Fire Sect is the dominant one. The rest of the forces either submit to the Divine Fire Sect or are suppressed to the point where they cannot raise their heads. Under such circumstances, what kind of trouble can the Divine Fire Sect have? Young master, just agree to it. After twenty years, you will enter the Fiery Sun Abyss to practice, and you will leave after you are promoted to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. You don't have to worry about anything."
"That's what you said."
Ning Daoran nodded: "Then wait a few days, and then I will go to visit Long Xian'er and agree to serve as a guest official."
"Young Master is wise!"
…
A few days later.
Chen Ningfeng came to visit with some gifts, probably with the intention of making friends with Ning Daoran, so Ning Daoran asked Chen Ningfeng to take him to see Long Xianer, and Chen Ningfeng readily agreed.
Shenxiao Peak, the main peak of the Shenhuo Sect, and the location of the sect master’s cave.
"Master, fellow Daoist Ning Daoran wants to see you!"
Chen Ningfeng bowed respectfully outside the cave.
Not long after, a ripple appeared in the restriction of the cave, and then a figure walked out, but it was not Long Xian'er, but her Taoist partner Zhang Qinghe, the guest elder of the Divine Fire Sect.
In the large sect of Shenhuo Sect, the position of guest elder... is extremely different, just like the chief of staff. As the saying goes, a chief of staff is worthless if he doesn't have the word "chief" in his name. The same goes for the guest elder. If the guest elder does not have the word "elder" in his name, his status in the sect is extremely ordinary. Even the status of a true disciple is stronger than that of a guest elder. In fact, it is almost the same as an ordinary worshipper.
"Xian'er is in seclusion."
Zhang Qinghe clasped his fists and said, "Fellow Daoist Ning, is this visit for the purpose of serving as a guest official?"
"Exactly."
Ning Daoran said in a deep voice: "After much thought, I decided to follow the advice of Sect Master Long and serve as a guest of the Divine Fire Sect. Then I will challenge the Divine Fire Tower and fight for the opportunity to enter the Lieyang Tianyuan."
"good!"
Zhang Qinghe smiled and said, "Xian'er has just gone into seclusion and will not come out in the short term, but I can still make the decision at this time. I will take charge of the matter of Brother Ning serving as a guest official. How do you think?"
"Okay."
Ning Daoran nodded and smiled.
In fact, he was a little unhappy in his heart. A few days ago, he told Long Xian'er that he would consider it for a few days, but when he visited her today, Long Xian'er actually went into seclusion. Could it be that she really didn't take this matter to heart at all, otherwise postponing her seclusion for a few days would not be a big deal.
This incident at least proves that Long Xian'er seems to have some shortcomings in handling the sect's affairs.
Moreover, it was obviously even more inappropriate to leave the matter of conferring guest official status to the guest official elder Zhang Qinghe.
Inside the sect's main hall.
Ning Daoran's appointment as a guest official went very smoothly. After a discussion among several elders and a nod from Zhang Qinghe, the title was given. The guest official token was handed to Ning Daoran, who was asked to collect the offerings on time every month. Then everything was settled.
On the mountain road.
Ning Daoran and Chen Ningfeng walked side by side.
"Where are you going next, Brother Ning?"
"Shenhuo Tower, please lead the way, Fellow Daoist Chen."
"Fellow Daoist, are you going to challenge the Divine Fire Tower now?" Chen Ningfeng was shocked.
"Exactly."
"Whatever."
Chen Ningfeng smiled slightly: "I will take you there right away. It would be better to go to the Divine Fire Tower to familiarize yourself with it earlier. After all, if you want to enter the Lieyang Tianyuan, you must be among the top six in the Divine Fire Tower."
"Um."
Ning Daoran nodded.
“Fellow Daoist…”
Chen Ningfeng transmitted his voice, "Please don't take the matter of the sect master's retreat to heart. Although it is indeed a bit inappropriate and I don't pay enough attention to your promotion to guest official, perhaps the sect master's cultivation suddenly had some kind of opportunity, so he had to retreat."
"Friend Chen is overthinking."
Ning Daoran said: "We cultivators don't pay attention to trivial matters. I won't take such cumbersome matters to heart."
"So wonderful."
Chen Ningfeng smiled and nodded.
…
Soon after, they arrived at the inner gate hall.
A fiery red tall building stands between the mountains, towering into the clouds. This building is the Divine Fire Tower.
"Daoyou."
Chen Ningfeng looked up at the upper floors of the Divine Fire Tower and said with a smile, "This building is the Divine Fire Tower, and it is the foundation of our Divine Fire Sect. It is said that there is a heroic spirit guarding each floor of the Divine Fire Tower. These heroic spirits are a wisp of spiritual fire left by the geniuses and sages of the Divine Fire Tower. The Divine Fire Tower itself is a weapon refining object. Those who enter the Divine Fire Tower need to challenge them one by one and defeat the heroic spirits on this floor before they can go to the next floor. In this way, the higher the floor, the stronger the heroic spirit. Fellow Daoist Ning should be mentally prepared."
"Um."
Ning Daoran looked up at the clouds and asked, "How many floors does this Divine Fire Tower have?"
"Ninety-nine floors in total."
Chen Ningfeng smiled and said, "Currently, the sixth place is on the seventy-first floor, which means that as long as you advance to the seventy-second floor, you will be ranked in the top six. If you can maintain this ranking for twenty years, you will be qualified to practice in the Fiery Sun Abyss."
"I see."
Ning Daoran smiled happily and planned to challenge the Shenhuo Tower.
"Hello!"
But at this moment, a young disciple in crimson clothes sat on a hill next to the Divine Fire Tower, emitting the aura of an early Nascent Soul. He looked like a ball of fire, and his fire attribute cultivation was definitely not low.
"Are you the guest official that just visited the Inner Gate Hall?"
The young disciple raised his lips slightly and said with a smile: "What a joke! This Divine Fire Tower was guarded by the ancestors of our Divine Fire Sect. How can a mere guest like you covet it? Excuse me for being blunt, but don't be so ignorant of the current situation. Leave quickly to avoid embarrassing yourself in the Divine Fire Tower."
"Long Jiuyu, stop talking nonsense and being rude to Mr. Ning!"
Chen Ningfeng frowned and scolded.
"Second Elder, am I wrong?"
There seemed to be a raging fire in Long Jiuyu's eyes: "Aren't there enough outsiders in the Divine Fire Tower? Now there's another guest official from Zining. Humph, are these people so eager to suck the blood of our Divine Fire Sect?"
"presumptuous!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Chen Ningfeng frowned: "Why don't you shut up!"
"I have the right to speak my mind. If the Second Elder is unhappy, he can report me to the Sect Master. Humph... You, an elder from another family, can't control the true disciples."
"you……"
Chen Ning was very angry.
Ning Daoran frowned. It seemed that although Chen Ningfeng was an elder in the Shenhuo Tower, his status was not high.
But it's no wonder. The elder is in the early Nascent Soul stage, and the provocative true disciple is also in the early Nascent Soul stage. They are in the same realm, so it's really hard to be convinced.
"What's your name?"
Ning Daoran suddenly asked.
"Long Jiuyu."
The other person raised his mouth: "How?"
"Long Jiuyu..."
Ning Daoran used his Nascent Soul consciousness to scan the Divine Fire Tower and said with a smile, "Oh... you are ranked on the 71st floor, and the sixth one is you, fellow Daoist. I am just wondering, you are only ranked sixth, not first, why are you so arrogant?"
"What did you say?"
Long Jiyu was getting anxious.
"With this kind of character, are you worthy of being a true disciple? Is there no one left in the sect?" Ning Daoran continued to provoke.
Long Jiuyu screamed and was about to take action.
"stop!"
At this time, a figure appeared on the third floor of the Divine Fire Tower. It was an old man in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
“Grand Elder…”
Long Jiuyu clasped his fists respectfully.
"Are you Guest Ning?" The Great Elder ignored Long Jiuyu and turned his gaze to Ning Daoran.
"Exactly."
Ning Daoran clasped his fists and said, "I want to challenge the Divine Fire Tower, but I don't know how to do it?"
"Simple."
The Great Elder said, "Wear the jade token of your identity, force out a drop of blood and throw it into the Divine Fire Tower to confirm your identity before you can challenge. However, you can only challenge the Divine Fire Tower once within ten days. Is Fellow Daoist Ning ready?"
"Um."
Ning Daoran nodded: "Ning is ready."
"Well, please."
The Great Elder rose up and activated the Divine Fire Tower. Suddenly, the entire Divine Fire Tower began to hum, as if it had awakened.
…
Ning Daoran forced out a drop of blood and shot it into the Shenhuo Tower. Then he floated down to the first floor of the Shenhuo Tower and walked in through the iron door that had just been opened.
"Hmph, let's see how you make a fool of yourself!"
Long Jiuyu sat cross-legged on the hill and said with a cold look.
"Bummer."
Ning Daoran replied via voice transmission.
"you……"
Long Jiuyu became anxious again and wished he could fight to the death immediately.
Ning Daoran has been practicing Taoism for many years and has seen many people who think they are geniuses and are arrogant. He doesn't have any attitude towards Long Jiuyu. He just tells him not to provoke him and not to kill him. Otherwise, he will just kill him.
As for geniuses, only those who survive to the end are called geniuses, and those who die early are wastes.
…
“Buzz~~~”
On the first floor of the Shenhuo Tower, a ray of golden light descended from the sky and poured onto an old monk.
The old monk sat cross-legged with his eyes closed and a thick pair of Buddhist beads hanging around his neck.
He slowly opened his eyes and said, "I am Master Hui Pu, a guest of the Divine Fire Tower. Who are you and how dare you challenge the Divine Fire Tower?"
"My name is Ning Daoran. Like you, I am a guest of the Divine Fire Tower."
"oh?"
Master Hui Pu said calmly: "The heroic spirits in the Divine Fire Tower are extremely powerful. It is not a place for a guest like you to come. Leave quickly to avoid being laughed at."
"Buzz!"
While he was speaking, Ning Daoran suddenly turned into a blood-red ray of light and rushed over. His right fist made a roaring sound, and his whole body was wrapped in fist energy. He punched the opponent's face with a heavy punch! "Bang~~~"
The loud bang echoed in the huge space. Master Hui Pu didn't even have the chance to stand up and was directly blown into a pile of debris.
"So pitifully weak."
Ning Daoran held the handrail and slowly walked towards the second floor.
