Chapter 571: Skyrocketing Tension.

Translator: Lam_Editor: Hitesh_

”Seems like the Fire Water Secret Grounds is going through some unrest right now.” Lin Fan focused his gaze into the distance. He could sense some disturbance up ahead, as a series of auras pierced their way into the void.

Furthermore, it didn't seem as though the clashes were happening on a single spot. Fights were breaking out in all directions.

The Fire Water Secret Grounds were unestablished secret grounds. Evidently, they were in the sights of coveters.

However, in a place like this, no matter how many treasures there were, there would definitely be more people grabbing and fighting over them. They would definitely not be enough for everyone. As such, with the dangers lurking around them, they would have to watch their backs.

With that, Lin Fan chased in the direction where Fairy Hongyun and her sect members had headed off to.

After Lin Fan's departure, the void trembled. At the spot where Lin Fan was moments earlier, a few men appeared out of nowhere. One of them frowned and tore a hole in the void with a curl of his finger like a mountain.

”The Infinite Bat Old Master has been slain. Who in the world would have the capabilities to do so?”

The man's expression changed to one of a slight bewilderment. While the actual powers of the Infinite Bat Old Master weren't all that strong, his Paradise was utterly mysterious and strange. It was extremely difficult to kill someone like him.

”Brother Luo, there's no lack of wealth to be found in this Fire Water Secret Grounds. The Infinite Bat Old Master was a greedy person who knew no bounds. It wouldn't be that much of a surprise for him to bump into someone tough and get himself killed in reverse.”

Another man looked really frosty. His gaze was split into Yin and Yang, with the Yin Yang Qi swirling within his eyes. It was as though he could reverse the Heaven and Earth, changing all of the worlds upside down.

”The Fire Water Emperor was a powerful being of the old ancient times. His lifetime's worth of fortune must definitely be astounding. Amidst it, the most valuable item is the True Essence of Water and Fire. If one can obtain the True Essence of Water and Fire, they can inherit the legacy of the Fire Water Emperor. We mustn't linger around here, lest someone else snatches it away.” A man who was holding on to a hand fan commented.

This man's disposition was graceful. However, a strong killing intent emitted from him from time to time, which was pretty obscure.

Despite that, the single strain of killing intent that was sensed from time to time could rattle one's spirits, and have them delve entirely into the power of that endless killing will.

”Life Stealing Scholar, the three of us have already agreed that we would walk this path together as comrades. Our encounters shall depend on our fates from the Heavens itself. Whoever dares to backstab anybody shall be shown no mercy from the rest of us.” Luo Yi gave a grave reminder.

”That's for sure. Alright then, let us hurry on our way. This time around, there are quite a number of elders from the Cloud Sect who have come along. Their powers must be pretty decent. Things should get a little tricky. Let us make sure to take care.” The man with the black and white eyes smiled indifferently.

...

At this moment, Lin Fan was observing the situation in the Fire Water Secret Grounds keenly. The deeper he delved into this place, the more he was realising how complex this Fire Water Emperor was. To think that the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi within this dimension that he had opened up would be this dense and thick! In fact, it was even comparable to that of the Ancient Saint World itself!

Furthermore, the surroundings were all filled with spirit herbs! Even though some of their levels weren't all that high, they were still pretty useful for Lin Fan.

Along his way, Lin Fan had collected all the Spirit Herbs he had come across.

Perhaps these might be items that others might not take a liking to. However, a Grandmaster of cultivating pills such as Lin Fan could create elixirs out of any single spirit herb that no one else would even bother with.

Lin Fan looked ahead into the distance and spotted Fairy Hongyun, Tianyun and Muqing standing together. Near them were a group of people, who were standing still at their spots as well.

”Everyone, watch out! Someone's coming!”

Suddenly, a man within the group felt some vibrations through the void around him. His face changed immediately as he threw out those words of caution.

To think that someone could remain hidden while avoiding their detection! They could only sense the might of the vibrations from the voids upon their arrival.

The disciples of the Cloud Sect felt their mental states shuddering fiercely while their faces changed.

Ever since they had entered this place, they were separated from their elders. Within this Fire Water Secret Grounds, they had to tread with extreme caution, lest they met with any powerful beings.

The moment Fairy Hongyun caught sight of who it was, her face changed into one of elation as she hurried forth, 'Everyone, relax! He's my friend!'
