This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable

Chapter 17 Mysterious Forces_3



In fact, Lu Qingshan had already seized the opportunity to imprint the Peach Blossom Mark on him.

"Run away, it's best if you run back to your den...." The Six Fires Daoist had already escaped far away with the help of the Space-Rending Talisman, out of Lu Qingshan's sight, but the location of the Peach Blossom Mark in his mind was strikingly clear.

Meanwhile, Dantai Qingrun had triumphantly returned, carrying the corpse of the Seven Fires Daoist.

Kill two, release one, that was their strategy this time.

......

The process of Mo Yan's refinement was still ongoing.

Although Mo Yan possessed the Incinerate Body and his cultivation had significantly improved, the difficulty of refining new Netherfire on his body had also drastically increased as the amount of Netherfire increased.

Thus, even though Mo Yan was confident in his abilities, the task was not at all easy.

Amidst towering flames, his uncontrollable low growls continuously emanated.

What was even more terrifying was that masses of Demonic Qi were constantly surging and tumbling, completely enveloping Mo Yan's form.

Under the shroud of Demonic Qi, Mo Yan at this moment no longer seemed to belong to the Human Race, but had transformed into a fierce member of the Demon Race.

This was Demon Fire.

"Is he really okay?" Seeing this, Dantai Qingrun couldn't help but frown, feeling somewhat uneasy.

"He can do it," Lu Qingshan nodded affirmatively.

In terms of growth potential, Mo Yan's Incinerate Body was the strongest talent he had ever seen.

This was a constitution with endless possibilities.

An hour later.

The flames suddenly raged, rising like flood dragons.

Waves of destructive yet eerie strength permeated out, making the space around warp slightly.

However, this scene did not last long.

Amid a roar filled with a sense of liberation, all the Black Flame started to rapidly contract.

Following this, six layers of differently colored rings of fire emerged around Mo Yan's body.

The six layers of fire rings represented the six types of Netherfire Mo Yan had refined.

The outermost layer of fire ring was dark as ink.

It was the transformation of the Demon Fire.

A vast power spread out from Mo Yan like a flood.

Simultaneously, an extremely terrifying aura, mysterious and profound, emanated from Mo Yan.

"Primordial Intent...." Dantai Qingrun, sensing this force, couldn't help but speak out.

Lu Qingshan also felt a hint of emotion.

After refining the Demon Fire, Mo Yan seemed to have derived some new insights, thereby naturally elevating his mental state to the Fire Elemental Original Primordial.

For Mo Yan, who possessed the Incinerate Body, understanding the Fire Attribute Original Primordial Intent was indeed a bit too natural.

Such an enviable constitution, knowing that he had struggled for so long to comprehend just four Primordial Intents...

Lu Qingshan thought wistfully.

"Congratulations." At this moment, all the flames had already dispersed, Lu Qingshan stepped forward, looking at the completely rejuvenated Mo Yan and congratulated him with a bow.

"Once again, I owe it to Brother Lu for his favor," Mo Yan clasped his hands in return, overwhelmed with emotion.

Dantai Qingrun's eyes flickered involuntarily upon hearing these words.

Again?

The friends spoken of by Lu Qingshan, were they all cultivators who were indebted to him like himself?

......

The Six Fires Taoist did not return to the Pan Sect.

Because in his heart, the Pan Sect was no longer safe.

Moreover, he was not prepared to share this achievement with others.

The overwhelming merits of the Five Netherfires, he wanted to monopolize them.

He planned to report this news directly to the higher authorities, and he needed to be quick.

Because if he delayed any longer and those people had already left, what then?

Thus, without even taking time to heal and recover from his injuries, he was eager to send a message to the upper echelons.

The shocking news of the Five Netherfires made his message travel at an astonishing speed, reaching the hands of the Hall Master of the Netherworld's branch in the next level up.

Two days later, the Six Fires Taoist was summoned.

"You say you discovered traces of Netherfire and went there with the Yin Demon Flame to tame it, but you were ambushed?" The Hall Master of the Three Continents' Netherworld branch, Lei Yan, looked sternly at the highly tense subordinate below.

The Six Fires Taoist nodded frantically.

"Who ambushed you?" Lei Yan Hall Master frowned slightly and slowly asked.

"A Dharma Cultivator and two Sword Cultivators," the Six Fires Taoist hurriedly replied.

"Sword Cultivators?" This term seemed to trigger an extreme reaction from Lei Yan Hall Master, his expression became significantly troubled.

He had heard that recently, a Sword Cultivator named Lu Qingshan had severely weakened the strength of the lineage in the Southern Territory.

And now his side had also encountered a Sword Cultivator, which startled him, causing him to associate the two.

"One male and one female, both with very ordinary appearances," the Six Fires Taoist, unaware of why the Hall Master had such a great reaction, quickly added cautiously.

"What about the male Sword Cultivator's methods? What does his Life-bound Sword look like?" Lei Yan Hall Master pressed for details.

"That male Sword Cultivator is extremely powerful; his Flying Sword is ferocious, making it nearly impossible for me to defend against. As for his Life-bound Sword... it's an Earth Element sword, apparently of high quality, I feel it must be at least a superior Heavenly Artifact," the Six Fires Taoist said with lingering fear.

"Earth Element sword..." Hearing this, Lei Yan Hall Master immediately felt much more relieved and couldn't help but think he had been overanxious.

How could any Sword Cultivator he encountered be Lu Qingshan? Besides, wasn't he in the Southern Territory, how could he possibly appear in the Western Domain?

"Do you know their origins? Why did they attack you, ambush you?" Lei Yan Hall Master asked again.

"It must have been to seize our Yin Demon Flame, because I personally saw that among those three, that Dharma Cultivator possessing the Five Netherfires has already started refining the Yin Demon Flame. As for their origins..." Saying this, the Six Fires Taoist hesitated again.

This immediately irritated the Hall Master, who scolded sharply: "Speak whatever you know clearly, what are you flaunting here for?"

The scolding by the Hall Master, intimidated by his authority, made the Six Fires Taoist's heart tremble involuntarily, and he hurriedly explained: "It's not that I am trying to be mysterious... Among those three cultivators, that male Sword Cultivator claimed that they were called 'Prometheus,' which I believe is the name of their power.

But, I have never heard of this 'Prometheus' power before, so I'm not sure if that person was deceiving me or if I am just uninformed.

Moreover, the name 'Prometheus' really seems too strange, almost like it's made up, so I felt that the first possibility was more likely...

Therefore, I dare not just tell the Hall Master directly, fearing that I may interfere with the Hall Master's judgement..."
