Chapter 388 Blessed Land of Miraculous Flames
Two more days passed, and Qing Guanzi, with one eye swollen and five scales missing from his head, suddenly poked his head out of the smoke and dust and shouted, "Si Nu, you are indeed mighty. If we continue fighting like this, we will not achieve anything even if we fight for another month. We will not destroy the mountain range. I don't want to fight anymore."
Then the woman of Si appeared. Her face was fine, but there were several places on her body where her scales were missing, and there were deep claw marks on the dragon claws that showed the bone. She nodded and said, "Senior is kind and benevolent, and the woman of Si will obey."
So, Qing Guanzi, with a cold face, called out to Ji Rong, who was using her cloud-riding and rain-controlling technique in the air, "Junior sister, your senior brother's fight is really embarrassing. Let's go quickly."
Ji Rong remained motionless. In the past few days, the mountain tortoise had already revealed the two dragons' plan to make a name for themselves.
Right now, the two dragons are at a critical juncture. If she and Qing Guanzi leave immediately, the cultivators of Qi Yan Blessed Land will think that Si Nu has offended Yu Xu Palace.
Therefore, she said calmly, "Senior brother, if you want to go back, you can go back yourself. The Mountain Turtle God Lord has invited me to tour the Qiyan Mountain Range, visit the mountain gods of Hezhou, and eat Hezhou delicacies."
The woman from Si immediately continued, "Senior Guanshan, I greatly admire your great strength. Please don't rush off."
The Blessed Land of Miraculous Flames is renowned throughout the Nine Provinces for its fire crystals and fire marrow. Fire-attribute materials are abundant here; please take some back with you.
Upon hearing this, Qing Guanzi put on a reluctant expression and said, "Fine, since you all want to keep my brother and sister here, then we'll reluctantly stay."
Qing Guanzi agreed quickly, and Ji Rong thought to herself that if they hadn't both been injured, other cultivators would have recognized them.
Meanwhile, Qi Yuan, the chief disciple of the Great Sage of Blazing Flames and now the cave master of the Blessed Land of Miraculous Flames, was still immersed in the melee between the two dragons and had not yet reacted.
This Stone-Forging Demon Emperor Qiyuan has an extraordinary background. He is the descendant of the Qihuo Clan and the Celestial Clan after their marriage. He possesses the bloodline of the Divine Clan. Apart from his red skin, white hair, and sharp teeth, he is no different from the Celestial Clan in appearance.
The Great Sage of Blazing Flames was born into the Qi clan.
In the past, when the Great Sage of Blazing Flames was still alive, six of the fifteen peaks in the Qiyan Mountains were the territory of the Qi clan.
After the death of the Great Sage of Blazing Flames, the Blessed Land of Miraculous Flames was without a Great Sage. Therefore, after Si Nu explained her purpose, Qi Yuan took the lead in giving Si Nu a relatively remote Flame Scale Mountain as a place to settle her tribe.
To his left stood a firebird, his junior sister, the Liao Guang Demon Emperor Kuang Zhen. Upon hearing Si Nu's words, Kuang Zhen immediately patted Qi Yuan several times with her claws, but Qi Yuan did not move.
Finally, Kuang Zhen had no choice but to say, "Senior brother, Jade Void Palace has been kind to our Qi Yan Blessed Land."
Now that our two seniors have come to our place, how can we not speak up, senior brother? You should quickly lead the elders down to greet them, junior sister, go back ahead to prepare the banquet.” After saying this, he rushed towards the mountain gate.
Na Qiyuan finally realized what was happening. He dismissed the elders, junior brothers and sisters, and flew forward alone to Qing Guanzi and Ji Rong, saying, "I have long admired the great sage of Guanshan. When my master was alive, he often mentioned you."
He then bowed to Qing Guanzi and Ji Rong and said, “Seniors, Great Sage Si Nu, Divine Lord Shan Gui, Junior Sister Kuang Zhen has already prepared a banquet for you. Let’s go over there.”
Qing Guanzi glanced at Qi Yuan but didn't move. Qi Yuan could only wait anxiously to the side. He thought to himself that this dragon-type Great Sage Guan Shan was indeed arrogant and ignored him.
Fortunately, Qi Yuan was quick-witted. As his eyes darted around, he immediately found the key. So, he quickly walked up to Si Nu, his eyes full of pleading.
Si Nu nodded slightly to him and spoke again, "Senior Guan Shan, let's go to the main peak first. There are still relics left by the Great Sage of Blazing Flames when he attained immortality there."
After the dust-sweeping feast, I will take you to enjoy the scenery of Flamescale Mountain. Young friend Qiyuan is so generous, bestowing Flamescale Mountain upon my Red Dragon clan as their dwelling place.”
Si Nu spoke up, and Qing Guanzi came to Ji Rong's side, picked her up, and said, "Junior Sister, let's go then."
The cultivators passed through the mountain gate made of red jade and entered the Blessed Land of Miraculous Flames, which consisted of hundreds of volcanic rock caves supplemented by a fierce fire array.
The fiery array is covered by layers of stone slabs inscribed with restrictions, preventing the fire from escaping.
All around was a fiery red, and Ji Rong felt as if she had entered a sea of fire, her heart burning with heat.
Upon entering the main cave, Ji Rong discovered that the red rocks were merely an outward appearance. Inside, the cave was like the Guangyang Palace, paved with jade bricks. Although the jade was white, it emitted a warm light, neither hot nor cold, making the cultivators inside feel as if they were in springtime.
When Kuang Zhen saw Ji Rong stop and look at it, he immediately stepped forward to introduce it to Ji Rong, and Ji Rong realized that it was Yang Jade, which was unique to this Qi Yan Blessed Land.
Ji Rong then pointed to the jade brick and asked, "Fellow Daoist Kuang Zhen, can you sell this jade? What is the price?"
"This...?" Kuang Zhen smiled awkwardly, spread her wings, and said, "Fellow Daoist, this was not originally for sale."
Seeing that Huo Niao Kuang Zhen seemed unable to make a decision, Ji Rong stopped asking questions and simply sat down.
At the head of the table, Si Nu, Qing Guan Zi, and Qi Yuan were enjoying themselves to the fullest, while Ji Rong sat to the left of Qing Guan Zi and did not join in.
Then the mountain tortoise sitting to the side stretched its neck and whispered in Ji Rong's ear, "Lord Ji, would you like to eat the remnants of the divine race?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Rong immediately turned her head and asked, "What do you mean?"
The mountain tortoise slowly said, "It means exactly what it says."
Ji Rong disagreed, saying, "There aren't many survivors left now. Since they've done nothing wrong, it would be a waste to kill them."
The mountain tortoise said, "But they themselves don't think that way."
Ji Rong said, "I didn't understand."
The mountain tortoise replied, "We've arrived."
Then the side door of the cave was opened, and two small, cracked bodies were carried in from outside. They were also red-skinned and white-haired, and looked to be quite young.
These two minor cultivators were already dead, and their bodies had long been dismembered. They were now being presented as a single piece for our distinguished guest to choose from.
Ji Rong stared in astonishment as Qi Yuan warmly invited them to choose, and the mountain tortoise said, "Lord Ji, this is the highest ancient courtesy of the Qi clan to their guests."
To entertain distinguished guests, they chose to kill their own kind for food. Ji Rong thought to herself that this was definitely not a custom left over from the heyday of the Qi clan. It was probably a custom that developed after the decline of the gods and the various gods.
When the meat was served, Qingguanzi was indeed very happy. He stood up and stretched out his fat paws to pick out the meat.
Ji Rong had no choice but to stand up and say in a low voice, "Senior Brother Guanshan, have you forgotten what Senior Brother Wanfa said last time?"
Qing Guanzi's outstretched claws froze in mid-air. He said in annoyance, "Sigh, I said I wouldn't stay, but they insist on keeping me."
Ji Rong picked up a plate of spiritual fruit and placed it on Qing Guanzi's table, saying, "Eat more of this."
