Chapter 5223 Willing to Confide in Brother Xiao Yan
Xiao Yan, the Immortal Flame Demoness, and Xuan Huang appeared in a completely different world of flames.
Above a strange continent, suspended in the void, consisting of countless enormous, angular structures.
This is not simply a raging inferno; the crystals within are not cold, lifeless objects. Liquid flames flow within them, radiating intense, violent energy fluctuations.
The entire space was illuminated with a bizarre and fantastical light, and the air was filled with pure and ancient fire-attribute energy.
Its intensity caused even the Flame Heart within Xiao Yan's body to become restless.
"This is the Crystal Flame Realm." The Immortal Flame Demoness's clear, cold voice rang out. She looked around, seemingly very familiar with the place.
"Senior Huo Zhixia, you know these flames so well, why didn't you take action to collect them?" Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Not all flames need to be taken away; I will only seek out the Heart of Flame when I need it," said the Immortal Flame Demoness.
"Moreover, I mostly seek out flames from the sub-world. Searching for fire in the Nine Realms is too risky and could easily create unnecessary karma."
It sounds like she's no longer pursuing the flame, but rather quenching the fire within her body.
"This Heart of Flame is ranked fifth and is called Thousand Crystal Flame."
Xiao Yan stared intently at the Heart of Flame, clearly sensing the surging of the flame's essence within it.
Compared to the Earth Vein Molten Core Flame absorbed by the Stoneheart Clan, the flame essence emitted from it is even more concentrated.
“However, this fire is not without an owner,” the Immortal Fire Demoness added, her gaze sweeping over the enormous crystals around her.
"It is supported by three races, who devour this fire to cultivate and consolidate their development. At the same time, the three races also join forces to protect this fire."
Just then, countless figures suddenly appeared around them, including a giant several dozen feet tall whose skin was as cold and cracked as magma.
Some were clusters of pure fire spirits, leaping about in countless shapes.
Another group consisted of enormous scorpion-like creatures covered in crystals, who surrounded the Thousand Crystal Flames they protected.
Upon seeing this, Xuanhuang suddenly waved his sleeve, unleashing the powerful aura of the dragon race, attempting to intimidate with the power of his bloodline: "I am Xuanhuang of the dragon race, here to borrow some fire. You shall not act rashly!"
The moment Xuanhuang's bloodline power was released, all the figures trembled and froze, not daring to move an inch.
"King of the Dragon Clan, we have been recuperating here for a thousand years. The Dragon Clan is so domineering, lending us this fire so casually, completely disregarding our survival and even our lives!!"
The leaders of the three races stepped forward. Even with the bloodline suppression, this fire was the key to their survival. Without it, the three races would surely perish.
"Borrowing only the essence of the flame, without affecting your own mind, you need not worry."
"I am not here to seize or plunder, but because the situation is urgent and I need the help of this source of flame. I hope you all understand."
As the king of the dragons, Xuanhuang naturally wouldn't bow his head in any way. He simply talked to them politely, but whether they wanted to or not was beyond their control.
"This fire is the result of countless efforts of our three races to achieve our current prosperity. If you take away its source, how will we resist the invasion of foreign races in the future? The Dragon King is disregarding our lives."
Xiao Yan was stunned. He couldn't understand what the Stone Heart Clan was saying, and now he couldn't understand Xuan Huang's words at all. He could only understand what the other strange-looking guys were saying.
"What do you mean by the bigger picture? Protecting our people and our homeland is our duty, and it is of utmost importance to us!"
The three tribes shared the same attitude, none of them willing to back down even an inch.
"Don't push your luck!"
Xuanhuang shouted in a deep voice, and his powerful aura suddenly spread out, instantly shaking everyone away.
"If the Dragon King insists on forcibly seizing the source of fire, we will die sooner or later anyway, so why fear a battle!"
The three clan leaders, who had been forced back, proudly stepped forward again. Xuanhuang's eyes darkened, and he was about to make a move.
"Brother Xuanhuang, please wait. They are the owners of the flames and should not be forcibly taken. If you really do not wish to do so, then let this matter rest."
Xiao Yan stopped Xuan Huang, unwilling to let him harm any living beings in the Mountain and Sea World, as the Immortal Flame Demoness had said, which would create unnecessary karma.
"Their desire to protect their home is no different from ours in protecting what we cherish. To seize by force is not the way of us."
Although the three races were so overwhelmed by the dragon's might that their blood surged and they almost lost their footing, their eyes burned with a resolute flame.
They growled, revealing their determination to rather perish than surrender.
Looking at the three clans who were ready to die, Xiao Yan was moved. He realized that he had done the same thing, protecting his homeland and Shenxi at all costs.
“Brother Xuanhuang, I understand. If there is really no other way, we can find another fire.”
Xuanhuang looked at the persistence and determination in Xiao Yan's eyes, and then glanced at the three clans who were on high alert and determined to protect their homeland to the death.
"Now I understand why people respect Brother Xiao Yan as their esteemed leader. Such a character is truly admirable."
"Listen up, all of you! I am the King of the Dragon Clan, and I always keep my word. I will take this source of fire, but not by force!"
He lightly touched his brow with his finger, and a golden light shone from his fingertip. A drop of dazzling essence blood, containing unimaginable life essence and pure dragon power, floated out.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Yan's pupils suddenly contracted. He understood that this was Xuan Huang's essence blood and immediately tried to stop it.
"Brother Xuanhuang, you absolutely mustn't!" Xiao Yan clasped his hands in a respectful gesture.
"It's just a drop of essence blood; it won't harm me. This is the world of mountains and seas. I acknowledge Brother Xiao Yan and am willing to become his true friend. In this world, I will spare no effort to help him!"
Xuanhuang said in a deep voice, and before Xiao Yan could speak, his gaze swept around the surroundings again.
"I will use a drop of my blood essence, and I will also send dragons to guard this place. In the name of the Dragon King, I will ensure that the three races will live in peace and tranquility for a thousand years!"
Upon hearing this, the momentum of the three races gradually eased. Xuanhuang had already made the limit of his concessions.
Their only concern was the danger they would face after the source of the flames was extracted. Now that Xuanhuang has made a promise, the problem is solved.
The three races are not fools who have managed to maintain this relationship. They know that if they do not back down now, even if the Dragon King does not cause them trouble now, he will definitely not let them off easily later.
"We pay our respects to the Dragon King!"
A voice rang out, which Xiao Yan couldn't understand, but he saw all the figures around him prostrate themselves in worship.
He understood that the three races had already accepted the conditions offered by Xuanhuang.
Xiao Yan looked at Xuan Huang immediately. Since he first came here and met Xuan Huang, Xiao Yan had been suspicious of him because of his straightforwardness.
Even now, Xiao Yan understands that having cultivated to this level, a friend like Xuan Huang is truly invaluable.
"Such a precious item, how can Xiao Yan possibly accept it!"
Xiao Yan clasped his hands in a deep fist salute.
