Su Yun and Yi Ling both narrowed their eyes, their expressions solemn.

Because the aura of the person who came was extremely strong.

Even more so, a faint layer of flames had begun to appear around it.

That was definitely not ordinary fire, nor was it any special flame; it was Dao fire!

It is a terrifying Dao Fire that only a cultivator at the True Fire Realm can condense!

Clearly, the newcomer was extremely powerful, having already reached the True Fire realm.

Of course, it seems that he has only touched this field and has not yet truly condensed his own Dao Fire, so he is not a true True Fire Realm expert.

He can still be considered an ordinary half-step True Fire cultivator.

This kind of cultivator is incredibly powerful, capable of looking down on any cultivator at the Life Palace Realm. Unless they are genius-level cultivators, no one can be their match!

No wonder the opponent's speed and aura were so astonishing; it turns out they had already surpassed the Life Palace realm.

Su Yun secretly pondered the situation, remaining extremely vigilant.

Soon, the light emanating from the figure gradually faded, revealing its true form.

This was a monk who looked to be around fifty or sixty years old, with a white beard.

But his eyes, sharp as an eagle's, exuded a captivating aura.

A faint flame burned within its pupils.

This is the manifestation of fire burning, representing the depth of the opponent's Taoist arts, having touched upon the realm of true fire.

At this moment, Yi Ling looked at the other party and asked, "Senior, may I ask why you have blocked our way?"

The old man was also sizing up the two of them. After scanning them, he smiled and said slowly, "You two young friends are truly promising. You are at the fourth level of the Life Palace realm, yet you possess such an aura. Impressive, impressive."

The brief compliment left both Su Yun and Yi Ling speechless.

Immediately, Yi Ling smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words, senior. If there is nothing else, we will take our leave now. We hope to meet again in the future."

With that, he prepared to leave.

However, the old man raised his hand and said, "Young friends, please wait."

The two men frowned, becoming even more wary as they looked at each other.

The old man smiled and said, "Young friends, there's no need for that. I just wanted to ask what the astonishing phenomenon that appeared here just now was."

He had just seen a beam of light appear from a great distance, but it disappeared after only a few moments.

He set off decisively, but found nothing except Su Yun and Yi Ling.

Therefore, he naturally couldn't just let Su Yun and Yi Ling leave like that...

Upon hearing this, Su Yun thought to himself, "As expected, I knew this person had come for this reason."

However, he didn't say much, because Yi Ling was there, and the other party had status. Letting the other party speak, or revealing his identity if necessary, would better intimidate him and prevent him from acting rashly.

Previously, inside the ruins, although I had fought against a sculpture that possessed the half-step True Fire realm, that sculpture was never a living person.

The old man before them was far more powerful than the sculpture and posed a great danger, so the two avoided making a move if possible.

Yi Ling smiled and said, "There was indeed a beam of light just now. We were close by, so we came over to investigate, but we didn't see anything. The beam of light disappeared quickly."

"This senior is highly skilled and should have even stronger perception. Has he noticed anything unusual?"

He was very clever; with just two sentences, he not only cleared himself of suspicion but also shifted the question to the old man.

However, the old man was also a shrewd person, and naturally he wouldn't believe it so easily.

He still wore a smile on his face, revealing no other emotion, and looked at Yi Ling, saying, "Is what you say true, young friend? Why can I sense an unusual aura from both of you?"

Upon hearing this, Yi Ling paused slightly.

Immediately, he shook his head, not intending to waste any more words with the other party, and said directly, "Alright, hurry up and get out of my way so I can leave."
