Capítulo 688: Chapter 698: Hungry?
Hearing Wang Yan claim to have captured all the Fire-Eating Ants, everyone laughed and dismissed Wang Yan, turning their attention elsewhere once more.
Qin Xingyuan snorted coldly and said, “Truly ignorant and fearless, daring to think about capturing the Fire-Eating Ant Legion. Do you not know that even a Demon Saint can only kill them?”
Faced with the laughter of the crowd, Wang Yan remained indifferent, shrugged, and said, “What is the existence of a Demon Saint? Anyway, they’ve all been captured by . Don’t you believe it?”
Seeing that Wang Yan didn’t even know what a Demon Saint was, Qin Xingyuan couldn’t be bothered with him, turned to Yan Shilin, and said, “Brother Yan, there’s no need to waste ti on this person; he poses no threat to you. And not just you, to any of those present, he is insignificant.”
Yan Shilin looked Wang Yan up and down carefully again, indeed seeing nothing special about Wang Yan, and couldn’t help but smile, saying, “Pardon the interruption.”
Then, Yan Shilin returned to his original spot, sat cross-legged once more, and closed his eyes.
After Wang Yan’s earlier commotion, the crowd’s initial wariness disappeared entirely.
Wang Yan coldly chuckled in his heart, thinking: These people all harbor murderous intent in their eyes, it seems they won’t spare their lives to seize the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire. However, now that they’ve disregarded , I’ve taken a favorable position. When Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire appears, you will pay the price for your arrogance.
Wang Yan coldly chuckled inwardly, having already made his calculations, but outwardly remained calm. He pulled Ouyang Feiting to a corner and sat down.
The crowd regarded Wang Yan’s appearance as a minor episode and paid no further attention to Ouyang Feiting either, each returning to sit cross-legged, beginning to adjust themselves.
Soon, Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire would appear, and by then the most intense competition would ensue.
Just as the crowd had barely closed their eyes, they suddenly heard the sound of flas burning.
The people couldn’t help but feel both surprised and delighted, hurriedly opened their eyes, and jumped up from the ground, looking around.
“Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire!”
“It’s appearing so soon!”
Several people even exclaid in low voices.
However, as the crowd searched everywhere, they couldn’t find any trace of Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire.
Now, everyone found it odd, as they had clearly heard the sound of flas just now.
Upon a second look, everyone beca both angry and anxious because they saw that in a corner, at an unknown ti, Wang Yan had started a fire, set up a rack over it, and was roasting at.
The fla the others had heard earlier was indeed the fla Wang Yan had ignited.
Several people beca furious and shouted, “Why start a fire here?”
“Quickly put out the fire.”
…
Yet Wang Yan didn’t even glance at them; instead, he took so at from who knows where and started roasting it over the fire.
The crowd shouted for a while and then lost interest since no one had stipulated that grilling at was prohibited here. Moreover, the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire would soon appear, so it was not worth causing a conflict with Wang Yan over such a trivial matter, especially since Ouyang Feiting was the presence of a Demon King.
Thus, these Demon Cultivators muttered a few complaints, each sat back onto the sand, and closed their eyes once more.
However, though their eyes were closed, they couldn’t help but continually sll the aroma of the roasted at, which drilled into their nostrils, making them restless.
They could choose not to look, but they couldn’t help but sll. Additionally, having sat for a day and night without eating much, once they caught a whiff of this roasted at aroma, their stomachs began to growl.
Even their ears picked up the sizzling sound of the at roasting over the fire, this doubled the tornt, making all the Demon Cultivators feel as if they were in Purgatory.
Almost everyone forced themselves to endure, swallowing their saliva over and over. Even Yan Shilin and Qin Xingyuan were gritting their teeth, keeping their eyes shut.
From ti to ti, the sound of Wang Yan and Ouyang Feiting’s hearty eating reached the crowd’s ears.
“Hmm, delicious.”
“It’s a bit too greasy, can’t eat anymore, can’t eat anymore.”
…
The crowd gritted their teeth in hatred; if the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire weren’t about to appear, soone might have already attacked Wang Yan.
Seeing that none of the Demon Cultivators looked his way, Wang Yan smiled faintly. The Starlight Ring flashed, and two mushrooms appeared in his hand.
“Hmm, let’s roast another mushroom.”
These two mushrooms were exactly Hu Wei’s mushrooms. Wang Yan had lit the bonfire precisely to divert attention while eating the mushrooms.
He handed one mushroom to Ouyang Feiting, then pretended to roast the other over the fire before bringing it to his mouth.
But at that mont, Wang Yan suddenly felt a chill coming from beside him.
The chill pierced his body and erged so suddenly, it made Wang Yan shiver all over.
Wang Yan quickly turned his head to look, only to open his eyes wide in surprised delight.
Because he saw, right beside him, a small fla appeared out of nowhere.
The fla was milky white, as small as a candle fla, yet its flickering made Wang Yan’s hair stand on end with a creepy feeling.
Furthermore, Wang Yan clearly felt that this small fla had an extrely terrifying power.
Seeing this, Wang Yan couldn’t help but have a thrill in his heart, secretly exclaiming, “Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire!”
Wang Yan looked up at his surroundings, only to find that everyone was still sitting there, trying to resist the sll of roasting at, fully imrsed in a state of not hearing or seeing anything. No one noticed this small Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire.
In ecstatic delight, Wang Yan slowly brought the mushroom from the fire to his mouth, and then slowly reached out his hand to grasp the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire.
However, just as Wang Yan’s hand extended out, the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire unexpectedly flickered and shrank back into the sand, leaving only a tiny fla tip exposed.
Seeing this, Wang Yan froze his half-extended hand mid-air, not daring to move.
He feared making a sudden grab might scare the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire away.
Wang Yan’s hand remained in the air, but a strand of Power of Demon Patterns flew from his palm, winding toward the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire.
Wang Yan intended to use this strand of Power of Demon Patterns to bind the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire.
What excited Wang Yan was that the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire showed no reaction at all to the stealthily coursing Power of Demon Patterns, seemingly unaware even when it approached closely.
Wang Yan, overjoyed, suddenly propelled the thread of Power of Demon Patterns forward, instantly encircling the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire.
But the next mont, Wang Yan forced a bitter smile. For upon contact with the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire, the thread of Power of Demon Patterns evaporated like a drop of water into fla, issuing a “sizzle,” and promptly turning into a wisp of green smoke that rose to the sky.
Then they saw the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire flare up and imdiately absorb the green smoke into itself.
After absorbing the smoke, it seed the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire grew a bit stronger.
At this, Wang Yan could only force a rueful smile, realizing that the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire didn’t fear the Power of Demon Patterns; it seed capable of devouring the Power of Demon Patterns. How could he possibly capture it?
As Wang Yan was frowning in frustration, his eyes suddenly lit up because he realized that the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire hadn’t left seemingly because it was interested in the mushroom he was eating.
“Could it be this little guy is hungry?”
