Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“From now on, we won’t be able to kill him in Blazing Yin City.”
They all dispelled the evil thoughts in their hearts. Other than feeling helpless, they also felt envious.
After all, ever since Blazing Yin City was established, there were less than ten people who could obtain the Flame Bearing Token directly from the City Lord. And the person who obtained the Flame Token as soon as he entered the city was even more unprecedented.
While these experts felt pity, they were secretly glad that they did not show their malice previously. Otherwise, with this person’s style of doing things, if he knew what they were thinking, he would definitely become mortal enemies with them.
Xiao Shi looked at the black token on the ground. Before he could speak, the young Ming Wu behind him said directly. “Congratulations, my lord, on obtaining the Flame Bearing Token! With the Flame Bearing Token, you can immediately become a Flame Bearer and don’t have to go through any more tests.”
“Flame Bearing Token?” Xiao Shi’s heart skipped a beat. Only then did he pick up the black token on the ground. The black token was made of a special material and emitted a cold aura unique to Yin flames.
This was also the reason why Xiao Shi had not taken the risk to pick it up previously. He did not expect that this token could actually make him the Flame Bearer of Blazing Yin City. This saved him a lot of effort.
If he followed the normal process, he would have to go through many tests before becoming a Flame Bearer.
Although Xiao Shi was not worried that his ability could not pass those tests, the test that the Flame Bearer had to undergo was very complicated. It would take a lot of time.
Now that the other party had directly given him the Flame Token, it saved him some time.
“That person just now is the City Lord of Blazing Yin City?” Xiao Shi asked.
“No.” Ming Wu shook his head. “That’s the City Lord’s butler, Lord Mo. Although the City Lord did not appear, Lord Mo is equivalent to the City Lord himself in Blazing Yin City.”
Xiao Shi understood.
Whoosh!
A figure suddenly flashed in the distance and appeared in front of Xiao Shi. It was the tall Flame Enforcer who had agreed to let Xiao Shi enter the city. A smile appeared on his face. “From the first time I saw you, I knew that you were not simple. I didn’t expect you to become my colleague so quickly. Congratulations!”
Towards the congratulations of this person, Xiao Shi only nodded coldly. He had no intention of getting close to him.
This tall Flame Bearer did not care about Xiao Shi’s cold attitude. He continued with a smile. “Refine the Flame Bearing Token first, then follow me to the Flame Bearer Division. Before becoming a Flame Bearer, there are still some important steps that need to be completed in the Flame Bearer Division. After that, you will be a member of our Flame Bearer Division.”
When Xiao Shi heard this, he did not immediately do as he was told. Instead, he looked at the young Ming Wu beside him. Compared to this tall Flame Bearer, he trusted this new subordinate more.
After seeing Ming Wu nod, only then did Xiao Shi thought to himself. He tried to refine the Flame Bearing Token in his hand.
The refinement process was not difficult. However, after successfully refining it, this Flame Bearing Token replaced the black clothes in his body. Not only did it make him more immune to the coldness here, but it also made him feel a sense of familiarity with it. It seemed to have obtained the recognition of Yin Flames. Therefore, he possessed the ability to control Yin flames.
“Let’s go.” After the tall Flame Bearer saw that Xiao Shi had successfully refined the Flame Bearing Token, he led the way. He led Xiao Shi to the Flame Bearer Division.
Not everyone could go to the Flame Bearer Division. Ming Wu could not follow him, so he could only stay.
Under the lead of this tall Flame Bearer, Xiao Shi went all the way to the Flame Bearer Division in Blazing Yin City. Although the entire Flame Bearer Division was not located in the center of the city, it was very close.
From afar, Xiao Shi had already seen a dense building. The building was huge. Although it was near the streets, no one approached it on the surrounding streets. They all circled around it. It was as if there was a great fear here that made them unwilling to approach.
This building was pitch-black, and the cold aura seemed incomparably dense here. Even if he was wearing black clothes that could not be affected by the cold, he would probably feel extremely uncomfortable here.
Now that Xiao Shi had refined the Flame Bearing Token, not only did he not feel uncomfortable in this dense cold, but he also felt very comfortable. He felt like he was bathing in the sun in winter. He felt warm all over. The blood qi in his body circulated faster. If there were injuries on his body, it would automatically heal in the cold without needing to do anything.
Apart from the coldness, Xiao Shi also felt that this place was filled with intense blood and death. Clearly, there had been several massacres. It caused the void to be tainted by blood and not dissipate for a long time.
Other than that, a huge statue was in front of the building’s door. The statue was a man with disheveled hair. He raised his hands high and roared at the sky. Its body was covered in eyes. These eyes revealed different expressions. Some were fierce, some were cold, some were bloodthirsty, and some were crazy.
Due to the height of the statue and the angle, Xiao Shi could not see the face of the statue clearly. However, from this statue, he felt an extremely powerful fluctuation.
This fluctuation made Xiao Shi realize that this statue was alive!
He took a deep look at the statue and followed the tall Flame Bearer through the door.
“This is the Flame Bearer Division. Apart from the City Lord and Lord Mo, our Flame Bearers are the greatest in Blazing Yin City. Normally, no one dares to come here. Or rather, people who come here usually end up dead.” The tall Flame Bearer smiled. He was in a good mood.
Along the way, he introduced and explained to Xiao Shi. After circling around seven to eight pavilions and a few small paths, Xiao Shi was quickly brought to a hall.
Outside the hall, there were already thirteen Flame Bearers waiting here. They were standing, sitting, or squatting. When they saw Xiao Shi, their eyes lit up.
Xiao Shi looked at the thirteen Flame Bearers. Among these people, most of them were at the Blood Martial Realm. However, there were also four Martial Soul Realm experts.
The leader was a burly man, but he wore a huge bamboo hat that covered most of his face, only revealing the part below his nose. His body emitted a powerful aura that belonged to the Martial Soul Realm.
The others also had different outfits and auras. However, to Xiao Shi’s surprise, not everyone had that cold and bloody aura. He even felt a kind and benevolent feeling from a few of them.
However, these people were the most dangerous. It was even more dangerous than those people who emitted a cold and bloody aura. And now, these Flame Bearers looked at Xiao Shi with admiration.
“Miao Shiwu should have told you, right?” The Flame Bearer wearing a huge bamboo hat said. “Before you become a Flame Bearer, there is still an important step to complete. That is… to control the Yin Flame!
“Although the Flame Bearing Token gives you the ability to control Yin flames, you need to control Yin flames yourself. You only need to enter the hall now to go to the Yin Flame Holy Land. Go there and control the Yin Flame that belongs to you. After you complete this step, you will be a member of our Flame
Bearer.”
Xiao Shi remained silent. He maintained his cold and aloof persona. His body moved and entered the hall in front.
These Flame Bearers were waiting outside. They could not enter the hall. Moreover, after Xiao Shi stepped into the hall, they could not see anything. “Guess… How much can he become?” The Flame Bearer wearing a huge bamboo hat looked at everyone and asked.
“Although he’s very outstanding and has the potential of a demon, he’s still only in the first blood form of the Blood Martial Realm. His strength is limited. He’s probably better than Miao Shiwu.. I estimate that he can become 15 and replace Miao Shiwu…”
