Game Cultivation World: I'm really playing games

As time quietly passed, a faint spiritual fire light began to emanate from Xue Tianhan's body. The light was like a hazy halo, gently enveloping his body. His aura became stronger and stronger, as if a sword that was originally unsheathed was gradually sharpened into a peerless divine weapon.

Finally, Xue Tianhan slowly opened his eyes, the radiance of the Spirit Fire gleaming in them, like a spirit dancing in the deep night sky. He stood up and nodded slightly to Ling Feng, indicating that he had successfully merged with the Spirit Fire.

"Junior Brother Lingfeng, thanks to your help, I was able to succeed." Xue Tianhan said gratefully.

"Tianhan, you already have extraordinary potential. I just provided a little help when you needed it." Ling Feng responded with a smile.

The two smiled at each other and prepared to leave Flaming Mountain, return to the sect, and continue their path of cultivation.

However, Zhao Yu, whose eyes were blinded by jealousy, would never easily let them get what they wanted.

He was filled with jealousy and hatred, and the evil thoughts in his heart grew like weeds. He was still determined to do something evil, and secretly spread the news that Xue Tianhan and others had successfully obtained the spiritual fire and earth flame, hoping to attract the covetousness of greedy forces from all sides, so as to put Xue Tianhan and Ling Feng into deep trouble.

As Xue Tianhan and Ling Feng were traveling through a remote and quiet valley, something unexpected happened. Suddenly, a group of mysterious people in black emerged from the dense woods on both sides of the road like ghosts.

The masked leader, standing at the front of the team, let out a chilling, sinister laugh. That laugh seemed to come from the Netherworld, icy and piercing: "You, obediently hand over the Spirit Fire and Earth Flame, otherwise, this valley will be your burial place today!"

When Xue Tianhan heard this, his eyes instantly became as cold as ice, like the stars in the cold night, flashing with a sharp cold light. He guessed that Zhao Yu was up to something, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence that someone came to rob them just after they got the Earth Flame.

He responded coldly, "You, a bunch of cunning villains, dare to try to get your hands on the spiritual fire? You are simply overestimating your own abilities!"

Ling Feng's hair stood on end in fury. He unsheathed his sword with a clang. The resounding sound echoed through the valley, as if announcing his wrath and determination to these uninvited guests. He roared, "You wishful thinking! You, like yourselves, dare to covet the Spiritual Fire and Earth Flame?"

The leader of the men in black snorted coldly, his voice full of disdain and arrogance. He waved his hand suddenly, and the men behind him rushed towards Xue Tianhan and Ling Feng like a surging tide.

Xue Tianhan was calm and composed. He quickly formed seals with his hands without any panic. The spiritual fire and earth flames instantly ignited in his palms. The hot flames jumped and rolled, as if an awakened prehistoric beast could not wait to show its supreme majesty.

"Then let you ignorant people see the true power of the spiritual fire!" He growled and suddenly pushed the spiritual fire towards the man in black.

The underground flames were like a roaring fire snake, pouncing on the enemy with its fangs and claws bared. Wherever it went, the men in black let out miserable screams, and were instantly devoured by the raging flames, turning into wisps of black smoke floating in the air.

But these men in black were clearly no ordinary men, with some among them being highly skilled experts. After a brief moment of panic, they quickly calmed down, and several experts unleashed a coordinated defensive spell. Glinting shields appeared before them, barely holding off the overwhelming attack of the spiritual fire.

Afterwards, they continued to approach Xue Tianhan and Ling Feng without fear, their eyes revealing greed and determination.

Ling Feng's eyes were as sharp as a torch, keenly spotting the slightest flaw in the enemy's defenses. His body moved like lightning, dashing into the enemy formation in an instant. The longsword in his hand gleamed dazzlingly in the sunlight. He displayed his exquisite swordsmanship, transforming the longsword into an impenetrable stream of cold light, each strike striking the enemy's vital points with unparalleled precision.

"Tianhan, don't show mercy. These people are greedy and don't deserve any mercy at all!" Ling Feng shouted loudly at Xue Tianhan while fighting hard.

Xue Tianhan nodded slightly. He knew the situation was dire and he needed to give it his all. So, he increased his spiritual energy output. The spiritual fire, nourished by this spiritual energy, grew even more vigorous and violent. The blazing flames illuminated the entire valley in a crimson glow, like a burning purgatory.

During the fierce battle, Xue Tianhan's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. He suddenly noticed that the leader of the men in black was hiding in the rear, constantly casting spells to direct the battle. He snorted inwardly, and with a flash of his body, he rushed towards the leader like a ghost.

"It's not that easy to do something behind my back!" Xue Tianhan shouted angrily.

The leader of the men in black felt Xue Tianhan coming at him like a gust of wind, and his eyes widened in fear, filled with panic and despair. He hurriedly cast his strongest defensive spell, trying to block Xue Tianhan's fatal blow.

However, in the face of the earth-shattering power of the Earth Flame, his defensive spells were as fragile as paper and were easily broken through.

The spiritual fire instantly enveloped him, and he let out a desperate cry that echoed in the valley. In a moment, his body turned into a pile of ashes under the burning of the spiritual fire and drifted away with the wind.

With the demise of their leader, the remaining men in black were thrown into chaos. They had lost their command core and were running around on the battlefield like a group of headless flies.

Xue Tianhan and Ling Feng seized this excellent opportunity and pursued the victory. They used all their skills and cooperated seamlessly, and soon wiped out the group of men in black.

After the battle, Xue Tianhan looked at the devastated battlefield before him, sighed slightly, and said, "These people tried to get something for nothing, relying on luck. In the end, they suffered the consequences. It's their own fault that they ended up like this."

Ling Feng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said: "However, the things they carry can be used by us. It can be regarded as their contribution to our cultivation path. "

After that, the two began to carefully search the black-clothed man's belongings. They found a large number of precious spiritual stones in the black-clothed man's storage bag. These spiritual stones emitted a soft light and contained rich spiritual power. It was obvious that they had collected them on a daily basis.

In addition, there are many rare spiritual herbs. These herbs have different shapes. Some of them have strange runes flashing on their leaves, while others emit a refreshing fragrance. You can tell at a glance that they are excellent materials for making elixirs.

The two of them gained a lot and were quite satisfied.

"With these resources, we will be able to rapidly increase our strength upon returning to our sect, and our cultivation path will be further advanced." Xue Tianhan gazed at the spirit stones and herbs in his hands, his eyes gleaming with excitement and anticipation. More importantly, his plan to make money through alchemy was now largely complete.

"Indeed, this is a pleasant surprise." Ling Feng responded, and he carefully put away the collected items.

After finishing their preparations, they continued on their journey home.

At this moment, their hearts were filled with anticipation and longing for their future journey of cultivation, as if they had foreseen a bright future in which they would concentrate on practicing in the sect and their strength would continue to grow.

However, the thrilling robbery they had just experienced was like a wake-up call in their hearts.

They were deeply aware that this was by no means an isolated accident. Behind it might be more powerful people attracted by the spiritual fire and earth flames. There must be a larger and more sinister conspiracy lurking, like an invisible net that was being quietly woven.

Perhaps at some unexpected moment, a new enemy will appear like a ghost.

Because of this, Xue Tianhan and Ling Feng remained highly alert and vigilant on the long journey back to the sect.

They were like two alert falcons, always keeping a high level of vigilance, closely observing the surrounding environment, not missing any tiny signs that might indicate approaching danger, and only wanting to return to the sect safely as soon as possible.

Sure enough, when they reached a misty forest, a powerful and obscure aura approached quietly.

Xue Tianhan and Ling Feng became alert instantly, standing back to back, looking around vigilantly.

"Who is coming?" Xue Tianhan shouted loudly, and his voice echoed in the mountains and forests.

The mist gradually dissipated, and a group of mysterious figures in gorgeous brocade robes slowly emerged. Leading them was a stern-looking middle-aged man, his eyes shone with arrogance and greed. He said coldly, "Xue Tianhan, hand over the Lei Yan you possess, or today will be your day of death."

Xue Tianhan was shocked. They actually knew that he possessed the Earth Flame. It seemed that Zhao Yu was behind this. "Who are you? How do you know that I have the Earth Flame?"

The middle-aged man sneered, "Hmph, we are from the 'Flame Demon Palace'. The Earth Flame is a powerful spiritual fire, something that countless people dream of. You want to keep it all to yourself, aren't you too greedy? Hand it over obediently, and I'll spare your life."

Ling Feng shouted angrily, "You are wishful thinking. Tianhan's Earth Flame was obtained by him through his own strength. How could he give it up to a bunch of villains like you?"

The middle-aged man's face darkened: "Then don't blame us for being rude."

After saying that, he waved his hands, and the men behind him cast spells one after another. For a moment, various elemental forces such as fire, lightning, and strong winds roared towards Xue Tianhan and Ling Feng.

Xue Tianhan and Ling Feng didn't dare to delay, quickly executing defensive moves. Xue Tianhan surrounded himself with Spiritual Fire and Earth Flame, forming a fiery shield; Ling Feng brandished his sword, its blade radiating bursts of cold light, blocking each incoming attack.

"Tianhan, they are numerous and powerful, we have to think of a way." Ling Feng said anxiously.
