Chapter 1325: Investigation (2/2)
Peng Yan’s expression flickered with astonishment. “There must be a Heaven Nourished grade fire-attributed treasure inside his flame domain!”
After taking a moment to sense Nie Tian’s flame domain with rapt attention, he added, “A Heaven Nourished grade fire-attributed treasure! This aura seems to belong to the Origin of All Flames, and is very similar to that of the Divine Flame that appeared in the Domain of Flame’s End. Our sectmaster himself went there several times just to find that Divine Flame, but even he failed to locate it every time!”
Li Yu chimed in. “The Divine Flame that could burn down an entire domain and cause fundamental changes to all of its realms... No wonder it’s so extraordinary!”
The elders of the fire element sect then started discussing among themselves while they were still within Nie Tian’s earshot, as if they didn’t think it was inappropriate.
“Is that aura he exudes really from the Divine Flame that devastated the Domain of Flame’s End?”
“This is odd... so odd!”
“Don’t tell me that he can actually enter and investigate inside the volcano to see if there’s a teleportation portal or any sign of Pang Chicheng there.”
Nie Tian, however, who was the focus of their discussion, slowly descended into the volcano, enveloped in his flame domain.
FIZZ! FIZZ! FIZZ!
Hundreds of fiery spell formations on the crimson inside of the volcano that had been vested with different wonders of fire seemed to be stimulated, as they all burst into flames at the same time.
Spell formations of different shapes and colors started transforming. Some morphed into flame phoenixes. Some morphed into flame qilins, while others took the form of Heaven Flame Beasts.
Some even transformed into blazing soul-form beings that floated in midair and eyed Nie Tian.
In the next moment, flame power that contained endless wonders burst forth, along with a soul-piercing power. They all had the same target: Nie Tian.
BZZZ! BZZZ!
Sparks sputtered off the outermost part of Nie Tian’s flame domain as dazzling fiery light attacked his flame domain from all directions in an attempt to burn it to ashes.
“This won’t do! He’s going to be overpowered!” With this thought, Huang Jinnan exclaimed, “Nie Tian! Come back! Your strength and cultivation base won’t allow you to contend against those fiery spell formations!”
Hou Chulan also cried out, “Come back now, Nie Tian!”
Peng Yan and the other elders’ faces turned pale with fright as soon as they sensed the might of the fiery spell formations on the crimson inside of the crater multiply by the second. All of them were convinced that Nie Tian was going to be burned to death.
“This Son of the Stars is just too stubborn! If he dies in our sect, how will we explain it to the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace?”
It seemed to them that Nie Tian’s flame domain could be melted and burned to ashes at any moment now.
SHEW!
All of a sudden, a streak of unusual spatial light shot from under the lava lake and wrapped around Nie Tian like a colorful ribbon.
In the next moment, the power that the fiery spell formations had sent after his body and soul vanished completely.
At the same time, Nie Tian was carried into the lava lake and disappeared.
“D-did a streak of spatial light just wrap around Nie Tian and drag him down?” Huang Jinnan exclaimed in shock, “Is he going to be okay?”
“There are such unusual spatial fluctuations inside this volcano, and it’s vested with such terrifying fiery spell formations,” Hou Chulan said with a stern expression. “Why didn’t Martial Uncle Shao conduct a thorough investigation of it? Did he let Pang Chicheng off intentionally?”
“If that’s the case, that senior martial sister of mine died, and the one who’s responsible went unpunished?” Lin Yaoyao said angrily.
Huang Jinnan and Lou Hongyan also fixed their eyes on Peng Yan and the other elders of the fire element sect, their eyes filled with suspicion and discontent.
“I’m not in a place to ask about that.” With these words, Peng Yan cast his eyes down in hesitation. Seconds later, he turned to Lou Hongyan and said, “Your master had his scruples. After all, our former sectmaster took him into our sect and taught him with all his heart. Perhaps it’s his gratitude towards him that made him reluctant to dig into this place, even though he must be aware of its abnormality.”
