A group of demon beast experts were gathering, and a Divine Sovereign realm expert was speaking to the young beasts.
Behind the Divine Venerable realm expert stood a massive altar. Atop the altar lay a divine stone, burning fiercely, radiating endless flames. The surging power of faith changed the color of heaven and earth.
"Children, pray, pray to the great sun god, who will bestow blessings upon you.
When you break through to Beast King, the great Sun God will favor you, lighting the way ahead. From then on, you will no longer be lost or alone..."
The Divine Sovereign realm expert of the demon beast clan raised his arm and shouted loudly, and the millions of demon beast experts ahead also knelt and shouted loudly.
Among the crowd, hundreds of thousands of young powerhouses were praying devoutly. As they prayed, the divine stone atop the altar radiated light, illuminating the entire world.
The Divine Venerable-level expert of the beast clan took the lead in kneeling down, prostrating himself to the ground, and excitedly shouted toward the altar:
"Great Sun God, have you heard the devout call of your followers? They are all your children, about to break through to the Beast King realm. They need your guidance and blessings. Please ... "
Buzz."
Suddenly, a divine light descended from heaven and earth, landing precisely on the altar. Through the endless flames, people seemed to see a giant bird descending.
"Great Sun God, you have actually descended in person."
When they saw the giant bird land on the altar, the Divine Sovereign Realm expert of the beast clan shouted excitedly, kowtowing repeatedly, while the other disciples also passionately chanted the name of the Sun God.
"Don't get so worked up. If you like it, I'll come often." Suddenly, a mocking voice came from the altar.
The person who rushed into the altar was none other than Long Chen. From afar, he had spotted the divine stone on the altar. The flames within the stone stirred up the Ice Soul and Fire Spirit in the chaotic space.
Hearing Long Chen's voice, the powerful members of the beast clan present sensed something was wrong and all looked up at the altar.
"Whoosh."
At that moment, Long Chen reached out and collected the massive flame stone on the altar, several meters high, and the entire altar instantly dimmed.
"Friends, goodbye. If you miss me, keep praying. I hear you, and I'll come again."
Long Chen smiled kindly at the stunned beast experts, waved his hand, and crushed a teleportation talisman, instantly disappearing.
Long Chen disappeared, and several blinks passed before the powerful members of the demon beast clan finally realized that their Faith Divine Stone had been stolen in broad daylight—it was not a deity descending at all.
"Roar!"
The powerful warriors of the demon beast clan let out a thunderous roar.
"Chase!"
All the demon beasts were filled with murderous intent, revealing their true forms one after another and charging out in all directions.
Unfortunately, Long Chen had already used teleportation talismans repeatedly, passing through their territory and sprinting all the way.
"Brother Long Chen, you're amazing."
When the divine stone was thrown into the chaotic space by Long Chen, Huo Ling'er shouted in delight, transforming into a fiery dragon to begin absorbing the power of the flame divine stone, but was stopped by Bing Po.
"This is the Faith Fire of the Sun Descendant. If you absorb it, you might become the Sun Descendant's mortal enemy in the future. You need to think carefully." Bing Po said solemnly.
Huo Ling'er was stunned, not knowing what to do for a moment. At that moment, Long Chen's voice rang out:
"What sun descendant? Isn't it the Golden Crow clan?" Is it really that impressive? I've killed countless of their people, and weren't friends to begin with. Just absorb as much as you want. "
The Solar Fire is the ultimate form of the Golden Crow Fire. In the Heavenly Fire World, Long Chen has slain many Golden Crow clan experts and has long had no reservations."
Hearing Long Chen say this, Huo Ling'er was instantly overjoyed. She grabbed the divine stone and started gnawing on it, but to her shock, she found she couldn't absorb the flame power inside the stone.
Bing Po said, "This is not an ordinary Golden Crow Fire, but the Fire of the Sun Descendant. Although it's not the true Solar Fire, the power of faith contained within is simply beyond what you can devour right now."
Since you're determined to devour it, fine, I'll teach you a fire control technique. After you devour it, share some with me. "
Bang!"
Long Chen was still speeding along, but when he heard Bing Po's words, his body swayed and he shattered a mountain peak.
"That's shameless! We're caught up in karma, and you just sit back and reap the rewards?" Long Chen couldn't help but shout angrily.
"Brother Long Chen, don't say that. Sister Bingpo is a good person. I'm willing to give her my power." Before Bing Po could answer, Huo Ling'er quickly spoke up.
It's over, it's over, this child is about to be abducted and now he's starting to speak to outsiders. Long Chen immediately felt a bit uncomfortable inside, but since Huo Ling'er said so, he had no choice.
Bing Po passed on a set of incantations to Huo Ling'er. Huo Ling'er, clever and quick-witted, formed hand seals, and chains of flame flew out, trapping the flame divine stone.
The power of fire was drawn out from the Flame Divine Stone, transformed at the point where the chains met, and then flowed into Huo Ling'er's body.
In this way, Huo Ling'er could truly absorb the power of the Flame Divine Stone. What Long Chen didn't expect was that the stone contained an incredibly immense power.
Huo Ling'er's aura surged wildly; not only did she regain her original strength, but terrifying flames erupted along her body, and she could no longer control the flames.
The Ice Soul Jade Hand pressed against Huo Ling'er. The power she couldn't control was absorbed by the Ice Soul, and not a single bit was wasted.
After one hour, the two absorbed all the flame power, and the flame divine stone lost its original color and eventually turned to powder.
Huo Ling'er seemed to have become a different person, her whole body brimming with strength. With every movement of her hand, golden flames surged, and she still struggled to control these powers.
The Solar Fire ranks sixth on the Heavenly Fire List, even higher than the Ice Soul. Now that Huo Ling'er has mastered a trace of the Solar Fire, even if only a trace of it, its strength has risen to an extremely terrifying level.
Borrowing light from Huo Ling'er, Bingpo's body had already begun to become somewhat ethereal, as if it might scatter at any moment. Now, having absorbed some of the sun's fire, her body became more solid, and her complexion improved a little. However, her aura remained unchanged.
The power inside the divine stone was absorbed by Huo Ling'er, while half leaked out and was absorbed by the Ice Soul. Huo Ling'er felt as if she had been reborn. For the Ice Soul, it was indeed a drop in the bucket—like a dried-up ocean, needing too much replenishment.
Huo Ling'er became lively and lively, very enthusiastic toward Bing Po, as if she were meeting her own sister. If Long Chen had a conflict with Bing Po, she would protect her.
Bing Po wasn't idle either; he began teaching Huo Ling'er some fire control techniques. Compared to Bing Po, Huo Ling'er's fire control techniques were far too superficial.
Seeing Bing Po earnestly teach Huo Ling'er his own ultimate skills, Long Chen felt a bit more at ease. Risking his life to save her was worth it.
The next day, Long Chen finally arrived at the city marked on the map. As soon as he reached the city gate, many people followed him. Suddenly, someone approached Longchen, and instinctively, his protective spiritual energy trembled, pushing the person away.
"Ouch!"
The man suddenly screamed in pain and fell to the ground, and a group of people with grim expressions surrounded him.
"Staged?"
Long Chen frowned, a murderous intent flashing deep in his eyes.
