Chapter 563 - Ch 563: Flame Demons

"What?"

Zhao Qing'er and Zhao Yufei were shocked when they come to know about the time flow at the place they were in right now. They could not believe it for some time but they knew Ye Xiao would not lie to them.

"What is this place? Is there a formation here that could speed up the time?" Zhao Yufei asked.

Ye Xiao shook his head and replied, "There is no formation here. This is a treasure. This treasure is a Nine Story Pagoda. Every floor of this pagoda is a treasure. Currently, we could only go up to five floors."

"Right now, we are on the First Floor where time flows ten times faster compared to the outside world. The second floor is where we could grow any herbs or spirit fruit and the herbs could even evolve here to the higher grade. The third floor is filled with True Essence, you should already know about the True Essence since you came here to participate in the Competition of Myriad Worlds. The Fourth Floor is where we can adjust the gravity and could train our bodies. As for the fifth floor, there is a gate on the fifth floor. We could travel to any world we want through that gate. I've already told Qing'er about that gate before!"

"The Sixth Floor, Seventh Floor, Eighth Floor, and the Ninth Floor has yet to be unlocked. We can not go there for the time being!"

The two girls were shocked beyond belief when they heard this. They seemed to not believe what Ye Xiao just said.

It was not their fault for not believing Ye Xiao.

How could someone believe a treasured pagoda to have such features? Let alone this treasured pagoda is known as Nine Story Pagoda, every floor of it is a treasure in itself, one that was on top of the Upper Realm.

Even in the entire realm, they believed there might not be a single treasure that could be compared with even a single floor of the Nine Story Pagoda.

Ye Xiao didn't explain much. He brought the two girls to each floor and showed them everything.

.....

Ye Xiao came out of the cave and started walking around. He had spent one year and six months cultivating. It also meant that he had spent a total of sixteen years cultivating to the Late Stage of Immortal Emperor Realm and at the same time, brought the cultivation of the Fifth Layer of Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique to a new height.

Ye Xiao left the two girls on the First Floor of Nine Story Pagoda and told them that they could go up to the Fifth Floor as they wish but they could not come out of the Nine Story Pagoda. There were not many days left for the First Round of Competition to end. When he'll be teleported back to the Great Martial City, he'll let them out.

Ye Xiao has no destination. He just continued to walk on the path he was walking and about one hour later, he arrived at a place where the temperature was quite high compared to other places.

"What is this place?"

Ye Xiao did not know where he was so he was confused. But suddenly, he heard some sound. He went in the direction from where the sound was coming and soon came in front of a huge cave.

What caught Ye Xiao's attraction was that the temperature suddenly increased when he arrived in front of the cave. Moreover, there seemed to be orange light coming out of the cave's mouth.

Ye Xiao entered the cave and saw a few demons.

These demons were facing someone and the opponent was also a demon but his entire body was emitting red as if it was on fire. There were two horns on the opponent's head and its eyes were shining red.

It was a Fire Demon. It is said that the Fire Demon could only be born at a place filled with high flame energy. One such place was the Land of Fire on the Immortal Star World.

Land of Fire and Ice was a famous forbidden ground of the Immortal Star World and it was also the place where the competition was held to choose ten candidates who'll represent the Immortal Star World in the Competition of Myriad Worlds.

It is said that the Land of Fire's second most dangerous danger was these Flame Demons.

Ye Xiao could also see lava flowing on the ground. Although it was not everywhere, it was still in many places.

Ye Xiao saw those demons killing the Fire Demon and continue entering deep into the cave. He followed behind them silently. He saw them continue to encounter many Fire Demons along the way.

After an hour of arduous battle, the group of demons finally passed through the Fire Demons' horde. Some of the Fire Demons were more powerful and the demons called such Fire Demons as Fire Demon General.

In the end, there weren't many Fire Demon Generals in the horde and their strength wasn't high either. As such, the group of demons easily broke through the final line of defense and arrived at the central part of the cave.

Here, everyone looked ahead with greedy eyes.

In front of them was a blood red sea of fire with a radius of nearly 100 meters. Above the sea of fire, a blood red lotus bloomed. A blood-red halo was continuously rippled out from the red lotus.

.....

"Fiery Raging Lotus!"

Ye Xiao immediately recognize what this lotus was. It was a Top Grade Immortal Rank spirit herb.

"Fiery Raging Lotus!"

A demon called Yu Long licked his lips when he saw Yu Long. His eyes were burning because of greed!

One of the demons said the tone was solemn, "Yu Long, be careful. Since the Fiery Raging Lotus is here, there might be a powerful demon guarding it. We have to be extremely careful."

The demon called Yu Long nodded his head in response but his expression was tense.

"Hahaha, the Fiery Raging Lotus is mine!"

Suddenly, another demon shouted as his eyes were dazzled by the Fiery Raging Lotus' surging Fire spirit energy.

"Hmph!"

How could Yu Long allow another demon to obtain the Fiery Raging Lotus? With a flash, he appeared behind the demon who just shouted that the Fiery Raging Lotus was his and struck out with his palm.

Puff!

Immediately, that demon spurted out blood and fell into the sea of flames. Along with a miserable cry, he fell to the ground and turned into ashes.

Yu Long had killed the demon with a single attack. His face was full of Killing Intents as he said: "It seems that some of the people in the main hall did not take my words to heart!"

"I have already said that we will kill Fire Demons together and search for the Fiery Raging Lotus. We might even encounter the Fire Demon King right now. We will hunt down the Fire Demon King together. And after obtaining the Fiery Raging Lotus, we will take out the seeds from it and divide the fire lotus seeds according to how much effort we put in killing the Fire Demon King."

"If anyone dares to keep the Fiery Raging Lotus for themselves, I will make them pay a heavy price!"

Yu Long coldly harrumphed, expressing his statements.

Everyone's expression was solemn and they all felt a sense of relief when they saw the demon's outcome. At the very least, one of their competitors was now less.

Yu Long swept his gaze across the crowd. When he saw the frightened expressions on everyone's faces, he was finally satisfied. After that, he focused his gaze on the Fiery Raging Lotus.

Generally speaking, the longer the Flaming Rage Lotus existed, the greater its effects would be. The Fiery Raging Lotus in front of him was blood red in colour and was giving off a bewitching feeling. It means that it has already matured but if left, it could still continue to grow.

Presumably, in a few thousand years or ten thousand years, a qualitative change would occur. At that time, the name of the Fiery Raging Lotus would also change and it would be upgraded to another form that could be used by even all the Dao Manifestation Realm experts.

"Looking at the condition of this Fiery Raging Lotus, if I refine all of its Fire Seeds, it is very likely that I will break through to the peak of Ancient Immortal Realm. It's a pity that there are still a few demons here!"

All of a sudden, a dense killing intent flashed across Yu Long's eyes but he quickly suppressed the killing in his heart.

However, right at this moment, a tall and large blood red figure suddenly scuttled out from within the sea of flames.

"Humph! Fire Demon King, I have been waiting for you!"

Yu Long coldly harrumphed he saw the tall and large blood red figure.. Dense demonic energy suddenly burst out from his body.
