Immortality and Cultivation: This old man seeks enlightenment through mere survival.

The so-called Flame Spirit Pill Body.

Its body contains a powerful and unique fire elemental energy.

This spiritual energy is not only extremely hot, but also possesses extraordinary spirituality.

It can interact with various elixirs and produce wondrous reactions.

It is an extremely rare and precious Daoist physique.

The owner possesses an unparalleled affinity and talent for alchemy from birth.

In alchemy, one can often better control the heat and adjust the medicinal properties, thereby improving the success rate and quality of the elixir.

Ever since that terrible icy aura swept through the Black Soil Mountains.

Most of the spiritual veins in the mountain range have been eroded by the cold poison, causing the medicinal fields of many sects in the mountain range to wither and die.

Only this Spirit Medicine Valley, relying on Elder Xiao's special physique, somehow managed to cultivate a large number of medicinal fields and refine countless superior pills.

Mo Qi and Chen Yuan were originally members of the Fire Refining Sect.

Ten years ago, they received a mission from the sect to infiltrate the Valley of Spirit Herbs.

They waited for the right opportunity to "invite" Elder Xiao back to the Refining Fire Sect to solve the problem of the sect's withered medicinal fields.

Elder Xiao secretly went out this time to search for the seeds of a rare spiritual herb in the mountains.

Mo Qi and Chen Yuan had been lying in wait for so long, and now the time was finally ripe.

The two had concealed themselves well, having already gained Elder Xiao's trust, and went out together under the pretext of escorting him.

After leaving the sect, the two revealed their true colors.

First, they persuaded him, promising conditions that were in no way inferior to those of the Spirit Medicine Valley.

However, Elder Xiao was an upright and unyielding man who would rather die than submit, and he directly rejected the conditions offered by the Fire Refining Sect.

That's why this chase ensued.

Mo Qi and Chen Yuan were even more surprised.

Elder Xiao, with such a fierce temper, saw that he was about to be captured, and without hesitation, he ignited his Flame Spirit Pill.

This is the ultimate killing talent of the Flame Spirit Pill Body.

By frantically absorbing the power of pills, regardless of the type of pill, it will be transformed into pure medicinal power to ignite oneself.

In exchange for the fiery and violent spiritual power of flames.

If an ordinary cultivator were to guzzle pills like this, they would explode and die within a quarter of an hour.

But Elder Xiao's face turned red as he forcefully transformed the violent medicinal power within his body into burning fuel, incinerating himself!

"He ignited the Flame Spirit Pill Body, how are we supposed to go back and explain ourselves?"

Chen Yuan, standing on the dark cloud, changed his expression and asked in astonishment.

"Stop him! There's still a chance! Otherwise, we'll both be punished when we get back!!"

Mo Qi suddenly leaped up, and the palm-leaf fan at his feet flew into his hand.

He roared, his arm muscles bulged, and with a twist of his waist, he unleashed a fiery hurricane from his palm-leaf fan!

"Hoohoo!!"

The fiery hurricane was like a blazing dragon, burning and sweeping away trees and gravel along its path, baring its fangs and claws as it lunged at Elder Xiao!

Elder Xiao burst into wild laughter and continued pouring pills into his mouth like beans.

"Playing with fire in front of me? I've been refining pills for sixty years, and fire is the last thing I'm afraid of."

At the same time, he gently grabbed forward with his left hand, and a ball of equally crimson flames shot out from his palm!

in a blink,

The crimson ball of flames then engulfed the burly man's fiery hurricane, burning him to ashes!

Then it transformed into an even more intense ball of fire, hurtling towards Mo Qi!

"Such violent fire elemental power! Chen Yuan, help me!"

Mo Qi frowned deeply, watching as his fire-attribute attack turned into nourishment for his opponent.

He immediately took out a deep blue bracelet from his storage bag and tossed it forward!

The azure bracelet spun in mid-air, transforming into a hazy, misty water barrier that blocked the way.

The raging flames were briefly cut off.

Seeing his companion fall into a disadvantageous position, Chen Yuan's expression hardened, and he forced out a few drops of blood essence from his fingertips and flung them into the Hundred Soul Banner.

"Go, you ghostly general!"

He let out a howl, and as his voice fell, a cloud of pitch-black mist emerged from the Hundred Soul Banner.

Then, a pair of twisted, coiled bull horns emerged first from the black mist.

Then four ghostly claws stretched out one after another, clinging to the black mist.

A ghost general with a blue face and fangs, whose eyes burned with a ghastly green flame, crawled out.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

It sneered and circled around, and as soon as it detected the nearest living person, the will-o'-the-wisps in its eyes flickered impatiently.

"Idiot, go that way!"

Chen Yuan's face turned pale. He quickly activated his connection with the essence blood and pointed it towards Elder Xiao.

This ghostly spirit was his trump card, which he had kept in the Hundred Soul Banner.

One hundred living souls are refined into one yin soul.

A ghost general can only be forged from one hundred ghosts.

This ghost general is incredibly powerful, comparable to someone in the late stage of Qi Refining.

Unfortunately, it is ferocious and arrogant, and harbors great resentment, making it easy for it to turn against its master.

Chen Yuan would not use it unless it was a critical moment!

Seeing the ferocious ghost general rushing towards him, Elder Xiao was not afraid at all and roared angrily.

"Come on! Come on!!"

"You all want my Flame Spirit Pill Fire, don't you? Fine, I'll let you have a taste first!"

"With my broken body, I will become raging flames!!!"

With Elder Xiao's angry shout, flames burst forth from all seven of his orifices, like a powder keg about to be ignited.

The next moment, he transformed into a human torch and charged towards the two of them!

At the same time, a secret telepathic message drifted into Lu Zaian's ears from behind.

"Fellow Daoist, please deliver a message to the Spirit Medicine Valley within seven days. You will be richly rewarded, otherwise you will be in grave danger!"

Lu Zaian was about to head south to escape the battlefield when he heard this voice transmission and was taken aback.

"What message are you spreading? You didn't say anything! Who's in danger? Are you talking about me or the Spirit Medicine Valley?!"

Before Lu Zaian could think any further, a deafening explosion erupted in the center of the battlefield!

"Boom boom boom!!!"

A dazzling crimson light entered Lu Zaian's eyes, and an area with a diameter of ten feet was transformed into a purgatory.

Flowers, trees, rocks—all burned to ashes!

A violent and intense burst of spiritual energy spread out!

Lu Zaian's expression changed drastically, and his entire body's magical power surged forth, forming layers of water shields in front of him.

At the same time, the "Iron Armor Technique" was pushed to its maximum intensity.

That's not enough to guarantee safety.

Lu Zaian flicked out a first-grade high-level Golden Bell Shield Talisman, which transformed into a golden bell and firmly enveloped him.

"Clang!! Puff puff puff!!!"

next moment,

With a buzzing sound, the defenses that Lu Zaian had erected in front of him were destroyed one by one.

A violent shockwave pierced through Lu Zaian's body, sending him flying and crashing to the ground.

"It's careless!"

Lu Zaian gasped, his lungs burning with pain, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood before struggling to get up.

The power of a late-stage Qi Refining Dao Body self-destructing is terrifying!

Even at such a great distance, and with multiple layers of protection, I still suffered serious injuries.

Lu Zaian felt as if his whole body was on fire, especially his chest, which was burning unbearably.

It felt like a red-hot iron branding his chest.

"Ouch, it's so hot! What's wrong?"

Sensing something was amiss, Lu Zaian pulled open his clothes to take a look.

Upon closer inspection, a bright red flame mark appeared on the left chest.

The flame mark looked as if it had just been applied, still radiating intense heat, like a tattoo.

Lu Zaian felt his heart clench violently, as if it had been grabbed by an invisible, fiery giant hand.

At the same time, a faint voice suddenly appeared in Lu Zaian's ears from nowhere.

"Go to... Spirit Medicine Valley immediately, otherwise... the Flame Seal will self-destruct within seven days, burning your heart... and you will die."
