Chapter 606: Chapter 333: Trading Alchemy Auxiliary Materials, Farewell to True Monarch You Bing
Within the light screen, there is a figure sitting silently.
Judging by the appearance, it is undoubtedly his friend Nebula!
Looking at the silhouette within the light screen, Huang Yu grinned, saying: "Nebula, my old friend, guess what I just saw..."
...
As for what Huang Yu did after he left, Qi Chuan naturally had no way of knowing.
Furthermore, he wasn’t overly concerned.
Firstly, meeting Huang Yu today, on the surface, they seemed to have completed a win-win trade, which wasn’t a bad thing.
And as for what might happen secretly, Qi Chuan thought it was quite simple.
The way to handle it would be to use strength to push forward without fear.
No need to be overly afraid.
Two days later, outside the Ice Spirit Island’s Ice Valley Mountain Gate in the Chaotic Demon Sea.
"Ice Valley Supreme Elder, True Monarch You Bing, greets Great True Monarch Qichuan!"
On the square, True Monarch You Bing, along with the Ice Valley Sect Leader and several Core Formation Elders, all saluted the void in front of them.
The Ice Valley Sect Leader and all the Core Formation Elders, were all pale-faced and extremely tense.
After all, it was a Great True Monarch visiting Ice Valley, and if they accidentally left a bad impression, it would be catastrophic.
Meanwhile, True Monarch You Bing gazed at the elegant young figure in the void, his expression was extremely complex.
When Qi Chuan advanced to Great True Monarch, after the Grand True Monarch Ascension Ceremony held by the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect, he quickly learned about it.
At that time, he was incredibly shocked.
Even though he believed that Qi Chuan had considerable talent and potential to enter such a realm.
But when the day came so quickly, it made him feel somewhat incredible.
And today, seeing Qi Chuan again, his heart was also somewhat unsettled.
Seeing an old acquaintance descend on him as a Great True Monarch, and he could only show a respectful expression, this feeling made True Monarch You Bing feel uncomfortable.
"Everyone in Ice Valley, no need to be overly formal."
Qi Chuan waved at the crowd as he spoke.
He directly eyed True Monarch You Bing, his lips moving, he used the secret transmission technique, a clear voice sounded directly in You Bing’s ear: "Fellow Daoist You Bing, have there been any disturbances in the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain over the years? You should know what I’m talking about."
True Monarch You Bing nodded.
He understood perfectly well that what Qi Chuan was referring to was the matter of the special Spirit Flame said to exist within the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain.
Back then, the Divine Fire Sect had a hint of greed for the special Spirit Flame beneath the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain. Due to his distaste for the Divine Fire Sect, he voluntarily informed Qi Chuan of this news.
Later, for some unknown reason, something happened under the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain. The Second Supreme Elder of the Divine Fire Sect, Lin Yan, actually fled with the special Spirit Flame and was wanted by the First Supreme Elder, the Great True Monarch of Divine Fire.
This incident, True Monarch You Bing found very bizarre.
Later, the Great True Monarch of Divine Fire visited the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain several times but returned with nothing. Lin Yan completely disappeared, never to appear again, and the matter gradually settled.
Thinking about this, True Monarch You Bing carefully transmitted back: "After the Second Supreme Elder Lin Yan of the Divine Fire Sect fled with the special Spirit Flame, aside from several visits by the Great True Monarch of Divine Fire to the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain, there has been no anomaly with the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain, but..."
"But what?" Qi Chuan raised an eyebrow and asked.
"However, regarding Lin Yan, I think something is strange, the special Spirit Flame under the Earth Flame Sea... it might still be there... because the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain’s state is almost identical to before Lin Yan went, without any changes, this is my basis..."
After a moment of hesitation, True Monarch You Bing finally spoke the truth.
The reason he did so was also because he had certain thoughts in his mind.
Back then, due to his dislike of Lin Yan and the Divine Fire Sect, he informed Qi Chuan of the special Spirit Flame, thinking Qi Chuan was of good character, and rather than letting the Divine Fire Sect obtain it, it was better for Qi Chuan to take the special Spirit Flame, a choice made under circumstances.
Now, the situation was completely different.
Qi Chuan had already become a Great True Monarch.
Furthermore, he was of good character and an old acquaintance.
Informing him that the special Spirit Flame beneath the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain might still be there might win some favor from him.
This favor from a Great True Monarch is extremely important for the development of Ice Valley.
This was his proactive decision.
"Hmm... thank you True Monarch You Bing for the information. So it seems the special Spirit Flame beneath the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain might indeed still exist."
Qi Chuan nodded and said.
Actually, he had also learned later about the Divine Fire Sect considering Lin Yan to have defected and being wanted, which happened after he left years ago.
What surprised him was that True Monarch You Bing would voluntarily inform him that the special Spirit Flame might still be under the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain.
It should be known, on the surface, the special Spirit Flame had already disappeared.
True Monarch You Bing could completely choose not to speak, letting the resource-rich area of the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain remain unchanged.
But True Monarch You Bing still spoke.
Even though he would know the truth even if True Monarch You Bing didn’t say anything.
Yet, saying and not saying, there is still a significant difference.
After a brief exchange, Qi Chuan soon left Ice Spirit Island, heading alone to the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain not far away.
He quickly arrived and, from a distance, this Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain indeed looked no different from before.
"Because I was previously occupied with breaking through to the Great True Monarch, it seems I haven’t come here to cultivate my physical body for years, the unchanged Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain is actually a good thing."
"Unfortunately, the Great True Monarch of Divine Fire visited several times but wasn’t burned to death by the special Spirit Flame, what good luck..."
Qi Chuan thought to himself.
The special Spirit Flame within the Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain is extraordinary; back then, Lin Yan was burned to ashes in an instant even as a Quasi-Great True Monarch.
If the Great True Monarch of Divine Fire had bad luck and got burned to death, it wouldn’t be impossible.
Plop!
At the volcano’s mouth, Qi Chuan dove directly into the crimson magma lake, splashing lava everywhere.
"First, let’s see if the special Spirit Flame is still in its original location!"
Qi Chuan’s figure quickly submerged within the magma.
Before long, Qi Chuan reached a depth of more than two thousand zhang, surrounded by brilliantly white magma.
The temperature was extremely high.
However, this Earth Flame Sea Fire Mountain is, on the surface, just a Tier Four Middle Grade Physical Cultivation Land.
Thus, with a thin layer of Great True Monarch’s magical power shimmering around him, Qi Chuan easily isolated the heat, allowing him to stay here for a long time.
"Fire-Seeking Technique!"
With a thought, Qi Chuan directly activated the Fire-Seeking Technique.
A slight pulse at his brow, a subtle stir within his heart.
Following his memory and the guidance of the Fire-Seeking Technique, Qi Chuan reached a location over a hundred zhang away from where the special Spirit Flame previously appeared.
The power of the Fire-Seeking Technique flowed through his eyes.
His vision changed.
Qi Chuan clearly saw, over a hundred zhang ahead, an Invisible Qi Flowing Fire Lotus, silently suspended in the brilliantly white magma, seemingly eternally unchanged.
"It’s still here, the special Spirit Flame is indeed still here..."
"But, how come after not seeing it for years, it seems bigger than before?"
Qi Chuan murmured to himself, gazing with some amazement at the Invisible Qi Flowing Fire Lotus. Compared to before, it indeed seemed slightly larger.
"It’s still growing!"
Back then, when Qi Chuan was still a Quasi-Great True Monarch, he realized that due to Lin Yan’s matter, he definitely had no chance of refining this special Spirit Flame at that time.
Now, he had already ascended to the Realm of the Great True Monarch, with his Nascent Soul reaching a height of eight inches one, his strength having drastically increased.
Yet, he still felt a lack of confidence, and hastily attempting to refine it might lead to significant errors.
