This is a small mountain valley, with no vegetation growing, the dry air is rich with Fire Elents.
The entire small valley seems to have been smoked by fire all year round, even the stones are an eerie black, so have even cracked from burning.
Ye Fan keenly noticed that in so places, the stones have actually been burnt into a glaze-like appearance, reflecting stunning glimrs under the sun.
"What kind of high temperature would this require?"
Ye Fan marveled, those stones aren’t ordinary stones, regular fire couldn’t scorch them, let alone burn them to such an extent.
Moreover, he sensed sothing ominous, as the forest here has leaves in a strange black-purple color, they couldn’t recognize the tree species, the leaves are divided into five forks, each fork seems to be curled up by high temperature, forming a purple-black claw shape that resembles Ghost Claw.
"I feel sothing is very wrong here, we better hurry past while we can!" Bai Yan wolf was feeling quite anxious.
"Agreed."
Ye Fan concurred deeply, this place could very likely be the lair of so powerful monster, and probably one that can manipulate Fire Elents.
Logically speaking, those capable of using Elental Divine Power to attack are usually Xuan Beast, but Ye Fan found it hard to call such a monster a Xuan Beast because they are essentially dead things, similar to zombies.
Previously, he only heard of humans dying and their souls becoming zombies by absorbing Earth Vein Energy, never thought Xuan Beast could beco zombies too.
However, monsters like the previously defeated Yin Thunder Beast can’t even be considered zombies, they’re agile, possess unique abilities, and are powerful both offensively and defensively.
Just as Ye Fan and Bai Yan wolf were about to pass through this small valley, a piercing crane cry suddenly ca from the ears, then a large shadow was cast in the sky, Ye Fan looked up and instantly felt trouble.
High overhead, Ye Fan discovered that a gigantic Fire Crane was swooping down like lightning, its sharp claws flashing with a tallic luster, clearly not a foe to be trifled with.
Boom!!
The Fire Crane let out another cry, spewing a pillar of fire towards Ye Fan and Bai Yan wolf, the temperature was so high that Ye Fan could feel a burning sensation even from afar.
"Damn it, it’s Siphon Fire Chain..."
Bai Yan wolf cursed, quickly performing Chasing Star Step, hurriedly fleeing, it too sensed the terrifying Power of Destruction in this pillar of fire.
The eyes of this massive Fire Crane were normal red, but its chaotic deanor clearly marked it as sothing like the Yin Thunder Beast, driven purely by a killing instinct.
"This Mist Ghost Forest is truly evil, why do these kinds of monsters keep appearing? How can we fight them?"
Bai Yan wolf muttered while hastily escaping.
"Swoosh!"
Ye Fan directly slashed with a Hand Blade, even if it was a Xuan Beast he wanted to kill it, because he saw, on the Fire Crane’s belly there was also a red rune similar to the one on the Yin Thunder Beast’s brow, evidently of the sa type.
A Fire Crane should either bear pure white or fiery red feathers, but this particular one was gray, except for a patch of red on its head and its eyes.
"Clang!"
A loud noise echoed, the sword light slashed against the Fire Crane’s claws, sparking a flare without intimidating this fierce creature, its claws were comparable to Lord Realm Spiritual Treasures, leaving Ye Fan quite surprised.
"Kill!"
"In a tense situation, Ye Fan wanted to slay this gigantic Fire Crane, the crane also aid to burn him and Bai Yan wolf in place, both stood against each other.
Ye Fan shouted, his hands moved, mysterious and imasurable Mystic Light appeared, an ancient aura spread, a miniature mountain erged in Ye Fan’s hands.
Mountain and River Seal!
Ye Fan held the Mountain and River Seal, charging towards the Fire Crane fiercely, attempting to hit it from the sky.
In this Mist Ghost Forest, the powerful Forbidden made it impossible to fly high, yet this gigantic Fire Crane seed unaffected.
Ye Fan couldn’t fly very high, yet the gigantic Fire Crane faced no such trouble.
Ye Fan naturally wanted to bring it down, engaging in close combat, fearing no one.
"Bang!"
The rune on the gigantic Fire Crane’s chest shot out a red light, instantly shattering the Mountain and River Seal in Ye Fan’s hands, the violent force knocking Ye Fan back to the ground once more.
Ye Fan’s first official attack was futile, failing to affect this huge Fire Crane, really wondering why such a powerful creature exists here.
"Hoo!"
The attacks from the gigantic Fire Crane were expansive, each Siphon Fire Chain carried incredibly terrifying high temperatures, turning the ground into magma, the heat was utterly shocking.
"I @#%&..."
Bai Yan wolf jumped around as it was burned, cursing repeatedly, even its body couldn’t withstand such terrifying high heat, almost roasting it.
Not long after, the valley here was devastated, Bai Yan wolf was wrapped in a faint white light all over, barely visible if not looked closely, yet this white glow isolated the dreadful heat, allowing it to survive till now.
"Ye, hurry up and butcher this big bird, I, the King, am almost roasted here... Ouch, it’s scorching."
Though Bai Yan wolf kept bellowing like a ghost, it was full of vigor, despite taking forbidden asures to harm its Primordial last adventure, it remained incredibly strong.
In terms of physical body, it’s no worse than Ye Fan’s Nine Heavens Profound Body Fifth Level, possibly even superior.
The only advantage Ye Fan had over it besides his mastery of the Chasing Star Step was the Magic Immunity Divine Ability.
The so-called mana is actually a way of controlling elents to attack, and Ye Fan’s divine ability is precisely to be immune to all elental attacks.
Ye Fan wanted to quickly deal with this Fire Crane, but being unable to engage in close combat was futile. If this continued, it would only drain him and the Bai Yan wolf to death here.
Within the magma, Ye Fan activated the magic immunity divine ability, and the scorching heat dissipated automatically a few inches from his body, unable to harm him at all.
"Suppress!"
Ye Fan shouted loudly, and the first Heavenly Sound of the Divine Soul Resonance Sound Wave Technique roared out, the visible rolling sound waves directly hitting the giant Fire Crane, causing it a montary distraction.
Ye Fan seized this opportunity!
In a battle between experts, life and death often hang by a thread. Seizing this rare opportunity, a flash of light appeared in Ye Fan’s hand, and the Fake Thunder Emperor Spear appeared in his grip.
"Overpowering Nine Heavens!"
Ye Fan unleashed the most fierce strike of the Heaven Slaying Seven Spears. The gun lights crackled, piercing through all obstacles, capable of piercing through all heavens and myriads of worlds.
With a flick of his wrist, Ye Fan threw the Thunder Emperor Spear.
The Thunder Emperor Spear transford into a Divine Dragon, piercing through the void and directly nailing the Fire Crane’s head, bringing it down from the sky.
Imdiately, the Bai Yan wolf was the first to rush up, trying to seize the rune in the Fire Crane’s belly.
"You wretched wolf!"
Ye Fan acted decisively, grabbing the Bai Yan wolf’s tail and pulling it back using divine power. Then, he punched through the Fire Crane’s belly, exposing a red rune that shone with a breathtaking glow like a ruby.
"Woof woof, let go!" The Bai Yan wolf turned to bite Ye Fan’s wrist, causing Ye Fan to quickly release his grip. He then dashed past using the Chasing Star Step and snatched the rune into his hand.
Without the rune, the Fire Crane struggled violently for a mont, then its body gradually faded until it finally disappeared into black air.
"You’re too much!"
The Bai Yan wolf fud with anger. From its perspective, any good item should belong to it, and it wouldn’t hesitate to snatch it even from a familiar person.
"Did you contribute just now? Do you have the nerve to fight for treasure? If I were you, I’d have hit my head on a block of tofu and died already," Ye Fan rcilessly taunted.
Anyway, the Bai Yan wolf was thick-skinned and not afraid of taunts. With its strong ntality, it quickly adjusted itself.
However, Ye Fan’s words struck a chord with it, as it had been rely a spectator in these two battles and naturally felt embarrassed to compete with Ye Fan.
Having had the prior experience, Ye Fan sped up refining this rune quite a bit this ti.
This battle was absolutely a stroke of luck. Had it been soone else in his place, resolving the giant Fire Crane so swiftly might not have been possible.
After continuously slaying two powerful monsters and acquiring two Tao Marks of the Heavenly Dao, Ye Fan was quite pleased.
For a cultivator, Tao Marks are the very foundation of becoming powerful. Once reaching the Lord Realm, engraving the Tao Marks of the Heavenly Dao becos every cultivator’s greatest dream.
The more Tao Marks engraved, the greater power can be wielded. Why can those Great Emperors shatter the sky with a gesture and crack the earth with a stomp? The main reason is that they have already incarnated the Heavenly Dao.
And, the reason why so Saint Lord Level strong individuals are so powerful is closely related to the Tao Marks.
Only by engraving more Tao Marks can greater attack power be utilized, and this is completely proportional.
Half a day later, Ye Fan refined this Tao Mark as well. After circling around his body once, the Tao Mark settled into his Dantian and entangled with the Holy Embryo.
Ye Fan tried to stir it up and found that he could easily spread the Tao Mark onto his fist.
Although he hadn’t unleashed it, Ye Fan understood that a punch with this would be more powerful than the strongest move of his current Xuandi Fist.
This is the power of the Tao Mark, wielding the force of the Heavenly Dao in battle; who could resist it?
Ye Fan mused privately, thinking that if he had had his current strength when he was previously besieged, the loss to those Saint Child Level strong individuals would have been even greater.
"Next ti, I’m never coming out with you again. I’ve gained no benefits at all, just accompanied you in suffering. I can’t bear this pain!"
After Ye Fan refined the rune, the Bai Yan wolf said angrily. This ti, it hadn’t gained any benefit from following Ye Fan, almost losing its life instead.
"Alright, don’t complain. How about two Heaven Grade Spirit Stones?" Ye Fan said with a smile.
"Give them!"
The Bai Yan wolf looked at Ye Fan with skepticism, as if to say, "No rabbit, no hawk."
"Giving them to you now is useless. Besides, I’ve already refined all my Heaven Grade Spirit Stones. I’ll give them to you once we’re out. I can use the Dragon Seeking Skill to get so Heaven Grade Spirit Stones; it shouldn’t be too difficult," Ye Fan said calmly.
"I’ll believe you this once more, but if you dare to renege, I won’t let you off."
The Bai Yan wolf threatened Ye Fan fiercely but quickly lost its montum, "This ghost place is really too sinister, whether we can get out or not is still unknown..."
"Can we get out?"
Ye Fan frowned tightly.
