452: 451 452: 451 As the only person who had been to the Sub-Fire Dinsion Realm, Huo ngyao’s words were born of experience.
Ye Haochuan and the other two didn’t dispute her and followed closely behind, continuing their hurried journey towards the oasis.
Along the way, they ca across more and more of their own kind killing each other.
The four of them turned a blind eye and avoided these conflicts.
However, while they could avoid the infighting, they couldn’t escape the natural threats of the Fire Sea Desert.
As they reached a sand dune, suddenly, Han Dazhuang called out to everyone, “Stop!”
The three of them halted, and Ye Haochuan asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
“I have a premonition that danger is approaching us,” Han Dazhuang said with a grave expression, “Trust .”
No sooner had he spoken than all four of them felt a stirring beneath the sand.
Looking down, they saw the sand loosening as one giant fiery-red scorpion after another burrowed out from the sand.
Each of these giant scorpions was enormous, comparable in size to a human arm.
And judging by their number, there were at least a thousand of them, which made everyone’s scalp tingle.
“Be careful, these are Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions!” Huo ngyao shouted loudly.
“What should we do?” He Dong asked urgently.
“Don’t worry, these Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions aren’t very strong attackers.
The only thing to fear is the deadly poison on their stingers.
To prevent from being bitten, let’s form a triangle formation and support each other to kill these scorpions,” Huo ngyao shouted back.
“No, I want to capture them alive!” Ye Haochuan objected.
“Are you insane?” Huo ngyao scread.
“These creatures are deadly poisonous, one bite and you’re dead on the spot!”
Ye Haochuan chuckled, “Relax, watch !”
As soon as he finished speaking, he summoned the Strange Fire King Cauldron with an expansive gesture.
The mont this colossal object stood on the sand, its three legs sank deeply into it.
“Everyone, get in!”
With a loud shout from Ye Haochuan, he was the first to leap into the cauldron, followed by Huo ngyao, Han Dazhuang, and He Dong who all jumped in after seeing his example.
As this happened, the Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions chased after them but faced with the towering Strange Fire King Cauldron, they could only sigh in frustration.
Nevertheless, as more and more Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions sward over, they gradually piled up higher and higher.
Seeing this, Huo ngyao beca anxious, “Are you crazy?
Why don’t you start killing them?
If they climb in here, we’re finished.”
“Heh, relax.
None of these creatures can escape the palm of my hand,” Ye Haochuan said with full confidence, “I’m just waiting for them to gather together, then I’ll catch them all in one fell swoop.”
At that, Huo ngyao was at a loss for words.
After waiting a while, they saw the Strange Fire King Cauldron surrounded by densely packed Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions, with even more of them continuously climbing up behind.
It was ti to act!
At this critical mont, Ye Haochuan unleashed his Extre Ice Cotton Palm.
Instantly, the frigid True Qi shot out from his palm, and everywhere it passed, the Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions beca stiff as if they had t their nesis, unable to move.
It was then that Huo ngyao suddenly realized that he was using the weakness of the Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions—their aversion to cold—to attack.
However, what puzzled her was why he was doing this.
With that thought, she directly asked him.
“Heh, these Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions are pri dicinal ingredients.
As a practitioner of both dicine and martial arts, with such a good opportunity, of course, I want to capture them alive to use in pill concoction,” Ye Haochuan explained with a smile.
Only then did Huo ngyao co to an understanding.
“Alright, stop just watching, hurry up and collect these frozen Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions, and put them into the cauldron,” Ye Haochuan instructed.
“Okay.”
Huo ngyao promptly started to work, grabbing the frozen Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions and tossing them into the cauldron, while Han Dazhuang and He Dong, seeing this, also began to help in unison.
Thus, more and more Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions were stuffed into the cauldron, but the Strange Fire King Cauldron seed like a hole that could never be filled, quite magical indeed.
Ti ticked by, second by second…
Almost half an hour later, all of the Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions had been captured by the four, who then jumped off the Strange Fire King Cauldron.
Ye Haochuan excitedly put the Strange Fire King Cauldron into his Space Storage Ring, saying, “Now that’s a huge fortune, hehe.”
To others, these Highly Poisonous Fire Scorpions were useless, but to a dical practitioner like him, they were valuable.
Huo ngyao shook her head, “Alright, let’s hurry on our way.
Delaying too long isn’t good.”
“Sure!” Ye Haochuan agreed cheerfully.
The four continued their journey and, after trudging for another five hours, suddenly before them appeared an endless stretch of green wilderness.
“We’ve reached the oasis!”
Huo ngyao was overjoyed, but at the sa ti, she cautioned, “However, everyone should be careful.
The dangers here are no less than those of the Fire Sea Desert, with threats from all kinds of fierce beasts, not to ntion our own kind.”
Ye Haochuan and the others tensed up, staying on guard.
As they walked through the dense grass, suddenly, a voice reached their ears, “Junior Sister Huo!”
Ye Haochuan and his companions followed the voice and saw not far off, a group of male and female disciples, also dressed in Ancient Martial Arts Sect insignia robes, sitting around a campfire.
Over the fire were several skinned wild animals that looked sowhat like rabbits.
These individuals, relaxed and composed, which hinted at their formidable strength.
“They are…” Ye Haochuan glanced at Huo ngyao.
“They’re all from our Sun Moon Alliance.
You guys need to be careful,” Huo ngyao warned.
“Oh,” Ye Haochuan nodded, reminding himself not to speak out of turn lest his past actions of killing mbers of the Sun Moon Alliance co to light and cause endless trouble.
Lead by Huo ngyao, the four approached the group of Sun Moon Alliance disciples.
Seeing the four walking over, no one called for them to sit down.
One of the cultivationally talented young n spoke indifferently, “Junior Sister Huo, you left our main group to be with these three?
Aren’t you afraid they’ll hold you back?”
“Hm?” Ye Haochuan was especially uncomfortable upon hearing this.
Before entering the Sub-Fire Dinsion Realm, he had changed into a grey Insignia Robe.
Like the identity card, the color of the robe also indicates one’s level, with grey symbolizing Mid-Stage Postnatal boundary.
Actually, with Ye Haochuan’s current Postnatal Peak strength, he should have been wearing the robe of that level, but he was different from others who couldn’t wait to show off their cultivation level by imdiately wearing a new robe upon advancent.
He liked to keep a low profile, to play the fool in order to catch the wise, so he did not do so.
The young man didn’t know his real strength, so his contempt was expected.
“Senior Brother Cheng, they are all my friends.
What is wrong with being together with them?” Huo ngyao said.
Senior Brother Cheng frowned, “Junior Sister Huo, the Fire Elental Realm is not a safe place.
Not to ntion the danger of our own kind hurting each other, the occurrence of fellow sect mbers hurting each other also happens from ti to ti.
If they harbor ill will towards you and compromise your life, what then?”
What the hell is this Cheng guy implying?
What does he take us for?
Ye Haochuan was very displeased.
