huo long’s body shrank to just a few dozen meters as it swam through the lava. this made it much more difficult for others to find them.

in truth, the entire heaven dragon flame region didn’t have a proper landmass. all it had were floating islands.

so by going through the lava, it was possible to reach any location. as they traveled, huo long constantly grew stronger, because its split bodies were all called back.

back then, it had sent out eight split bodies. one had detonated to hold back qu dajiang, and of the remaining seven, only six returned. most likely, the last one had been destroyed by some powerful earth flame spirit beast.

with six split bodies returning, huo long’s power grew explosively. after merging temporarily, huo long once more sent out eight split bodies. but this time, the split bodies were sent to the primal chaos space to each absorb a divine flame crystal. absorbing the divine flame crystals would rapidly increase its power.

it had to be known that huo long possessed its own life and spirit now. the flames that were absorbed by it could impart their unique abilities to it. it was like a person learning different techniques.

the primal chaos space had grown by ten times with his advancement to the jade core realm. it was three million miles wide, practically becoming a minor world.

however, other than a medicinal field, the rest of it was barren.

long chen was too lazy to plant the iron spruce oaks again. even at the peak of the foundation forging realm, the life energy they had been able to offer him was almost negligible.

now he had advanced to the jade core realm. during the tribulation, the iron spruce oaks had only been able to heal a single injury. they weren’t even as strong as his own natural recovery ability.

as for the withered iron spruce oaks, they had been incinerated by the divine flame crystals. that was why the primal chaos space was mostly empty.

on the edges of the primal chaos space were the chains filled with thunderforce. lei long was currently latched onto them, absorbing their energy. these were the chains that had fallen off the divine gate.

they had been piled into a huge mountain. lei long was continuously absorbing their energy.

the blazing dragon cauldron was not far, its whole body shining. there was a divine flame crystal being refined inside it, and its power was nourishing it.

there were eight flame dragons in the vicinity, each of them holding a divine flame crystal. their efficiency was eight times greater than before.

it was unknown whether it was because of huo long’s influence, but lei long suddenly flew out of its pile and coiled around one of the flame dragons. it was like they were communicating.

just a moment later, lei long returned to its rations and actually summoned its own split bodies. furthermore, lei long summoned over a hundred of them in one go, and it began to crazily absorb thunderforce. it seemed lei long had mimicked huo long’s skill.

“huo long, slow down a bit.” long chen suddenly sensed two figures rushing from above together.

he had huo long follow them. those two weren’t going too fast, and they had no idea that in the sea of lava below them, there was a flame dragon swimming around.

“senior apprentice-brother guo, we haven’t found suitable earth flames yet, but the alliance master wanted us to give up and find long san. don’t you think that’s a bit unreasonable?” grumbled one of those disciples.

the disciple called senior apprentice-brother guo said, “what can we do? we can’t go against the orders from higher-up. even if we don’t find anything this time, we’ll have another chance. but if we offend the alliance master, we’ll probably be kicked out of the divine pill hall. it’s not worth it to be disobedient.”

long chen was startled. so the two of them were actually searching for him. he stealthily sent his divine sense up and saw that they were disciples of the divine spear alliance, and they were jade core experts.

“just what happened to long san? did he go crazy? he actually killed over a hundred disciples of the divine shield alliance. not even dan yanxue and kan dongze dare to protect him any longer, and they sent out the order to kill him on sight. if he’s going to die, why couldn’t he just die without causing a fuss? we don’t even have time to search for earth flames because of him.”

over a hundred disciples killed? long chen sneered inside. it seemed dan yanxue and kan dongze were even more vicious than he had realized. they had killed so many of the divine shield alliance’s disciples.

this would truly be a fearsome injury to the core of the divine shield alliance. without enough alchemists, the divine spear alliance would become the main force of pill valley in the future.

whether it was in the present or the future, this vicious move of the divine spear alliance had completely turned things around. it definitely got the most use out of the chess piece known as long san.

all those people were killed by long san, and now that the divine spear alliance discovered this scourge, they would immediately abandon their prejudices and join hands with the divine shield alliance to kill him. they would appear righteous while also managing to kill him to cover the truth.

if his guess wasn’t wrong, those people who had disguised themselves as long san and killed other disciples would all be quietly eliminated by dan yanxue and kan dongze. that way, once long san was dead, there would be no one to testify against their version of stories.

when an investigation was carried out, dan yanxue would point their investigation toward that idiot jiang zijun. before entering the heaven dragon flame region, jiang zijun had clearly expressed how he wanted to kill long san.

what had happened was that long san had been chased down by jiang zijun. and driven by revenge, he had decided that since he couldn’t beat jiang zijun, he had launched an indiscriminate slaughter to vent. when the time came, all those people who had died would be said to be killed by him, while the responsibility would be pushed onto jiang zijun. it wasn’t a bad plan.

continuing to hear them talking, he realized that they were just complaining, and he lost interest. he had huo long speed up, as he wanted to go see that golden phoenix again.

he had long since been attracted to the heaven incinerating flame. that was the existence ranked third on the earth flame ranking, and it only existed in legend.

the golden phoenix was still young, and this was the best time to subdue it. once it matured, then let alone a jade core disciple, even a life star expert would have to scram upon seeing it.

a landmass quickly appeared ahead. it floated atop the lava. as he wove around some small islands, he quickly found the spiritual imprints he had left behind.

however, when he approached this region, he sensed powerful auras clashing from ahead. powerful undercurrents were raging in the lava.

“oh? people are fighting the golden phoenix?” long chen was startled. he had huo long find a concealed spot, while he stealthily stuck his head out of the lava. seeing the situation, he was delighted. the heavens were finally making things up to him.
