Chapter 161 Flame Region (1/2)
Chapter 161 Flame Region
The Ji Family was chasing after Ye Fan due to the Great Void Art. But for the Flickering Light Sacred Lady and Hua Yunfei to also be chasing him, it was definitely a bad omen.
He quickly also noticed the Unfettered Sect’s most outstanding disciple, Li Youyou. She was also following like a floating wisp of smoke.
At the same time, he also saw several other familiar figures, each of which were the top disciples of the Taixuan Sect. Other than them, there were even more unfamiliar figures he had never seen that were chasing him from the distance.
Now the trouble had become big. The Ji Family was chasing after him for the Great Void Art, but these other great powers also had unknown motives and were each doing their best to catch up to him.
Ye Fan knew that his future and life was now unknown. It would be very difficult for him to break off from these people.
“Little brother Ye, how about you come back with me? In this region, only my Flickering Light Sacred Land can ensure your safety.” The Flickering Light Sacred Lady once more transmitted to him. Her voice was very soft, bringing an enticing charm.
Ye Fan truly wanted to go crazy and go to the Flickering Light Sacred Land. By publicly giving them the Great Void Art, he would cause the two great powers to fight amongst themselves.
His current situation was definitely extremely dangerous. Everyone treated him as a treasure to be collected.
Just as Ye Fan’s mind was distracted, light shone below the Flickering Light Sacred Lady’s feet, and a golden lotus appeared with each of her steps, softly swaying like a thin willow in the breeze. In an instant, she caught up to him.
Ye Fan’s eyes opened wide, and he did his best to increase his speed. This beautiful woman was too mystical, and she narrowly passed him.
A light heavenly laugh rang out. The Flickering Light Sacred Lady reached out her slender jade hand, her fingers possessing a strange power that brushed against Ye Fan’s back.
Although they were separated by hundreds of meters, Ye Fan’s still felt a fragrant wind. That hand was on the verge of sticking to his back, and he felt as if he could already feel that soft hand.
He turned cold, shouting, “Flickering Light Sacred Lady, how old are you?”
Everyone paused for a moment and didn’t understand. The Flickering Light Sacred Lady was slightly startled, but she quickly laughed. “Crafty kid.”
Ye Fan had only done this to scatter her attention and avoid the danger just now. The jade hand was thrown off and he quickly picked up speed.
Blue clothes fluttered as Hua Yunfei caught up to him, transmitting, “Junior brother Ye, as a disciple of the Zhou Peak, come back with me to the Taixuan Sect.”
Clouds and mist filled the air as the Unfettered Sect’s Li Youyou also caught up.
“Little brat Ye, let’s see who can save you now!” Ji Hui’s face was ashen as the distance between them became smaller and smaller.
If he did have to fall into someone’s hands, he definitely couldn’t land within this old crone’s. Otherwise Ye Fan’s death would definitely not be an easy one. He didn’t want to taste this world’s tortures.
“Hahaha…little kid Ye, don’t run. Big sis won’t hurt you,” Ji Biyue sweetly laughed. The five-colored lightning beneath her feet shone, quickly pulling closer to him.
Ye Fan’s heart was cold. All of these people were young experts who had all cultivated three secret realms and were not at all weaker than Elders.
Looking back, other than the Ji Family Elders, they were all outstanding disciples like Hua Yunfei, Li Youyou, Ji Biyue, the Flickering Light Sacred Lady…
There were now around twenty cultivators still chasing him that he was unable to throw off. Half of them he had seen before, while half were unfamiliar to him.
“Little kid Ye, big sis will pamper you…” Ji Biyue’s eyes were like water, her figure’s sexy curves definitely moving. That green moon above her head actually flew out towards Ye Fan, descending down and enveloping him.
“Oh pretty lady, we can do it in private, but in a public place with so many people, it’s not that good.” Ye Fan’s spirit shivered and his footwork became even stranger. Each step had a Dao charm to it, and with several steps he managed to break away from that green moon.
Pu Nation was definitely considered well known within the southern region. The reason why many cultivators knew of it was because of a Flame Region within its borders.
No one knew why the Flame Region would perpetually blaze. Ever since the Ancient Desolation, countless years had passed, yet it had continuing burning.
There were no plants above, and no magma below. There was nothing to sustain its flames, but they never went out.
The Flame Region was not somewhere average cultivators could approach. But peak cultivators would always go there when refining Vessels, because the flames there possessed a mysterious energy that could help a Vessel form and have the Dao and Truth engraved upon it.
Of course, the Flame Region wasn’t some peaceful land. Normally it was still endurable. But when the flames were surging high into the sky, the danger rose greatly, and even sovereigns could only retreat.
There was many ancient texts about this place, some even relating to Immortals and the Desolate Pagoda. But there were only a few lines, and they weren’t very clear about what this place was.
Ye Fan started off fifteen hundred kilometers away from the Xixian mountain range. From the center of Pu Nation, he arrived at its western end, seeing a field of flames. Only now did he notice that there was a hundred kilometer wide Flame Region blocking his path forward.
“Little bastard, how are you going to escape now?!” Ji Hui’s expression was extremely gloomy, and a killing intent soared in her eyes. Blocking his retreat, she stopped chasing him.
The others all stopped and sealed the three sides, using the Flame Region as the fourth wall. They blocked him and stopped advancing.
Ye Fan originally wanted to fly higher than rush out, but seeing this many people, his heart shook and he didn’t hastily do anything.
“Damn crone, what can you do to me? Isn’t it just a bunch of flames? Do you really think it can block me?” Ye Fan stood there, noticing the various people’s reactions.
“Are you dumb? If you don’t even know to be afraid of the Flame Region, I don’t know whether you are ignorant or stupid.”
Seeing her attitude, Ye Fan immediately understood that this place was not some place he could just barge into.
“Little brother Ye, there’s no need to hesitate. Come with me, the Flickering Light Sacred Land will groom you…” The Flickering Light Sacred Lady secretly transmitted to him. Her beautiful voice and figure patiently tried guiding him.
Ji Hui personally came forward slowly. The other Elders followed behind her. At this point, they definitely wouldn’t give Ye Fan any chances.
On the other side, flames were blazing. The temperature was so hot the earth was completely roasted, and much of the surrounding land was cracked.
Ye Fan ground his teeth and decided to take the risk. He slowly retreated into the Flame Region. In any case, there were no other paths to life.
“Little Ye, there’s no need to be so unyielding…” Ji Biyue laughed, her jade foot stepping across the five-colored lightning and floating over.
Ye Fan charged into the Flame Region. The flames surrounded him, and divine light covered his body. He quickly ran through it, preparing to pierce through to the other side.
“You’re just wasting your energy. Only once you die will we be able to set our minds at ease.” Ji Hui also advanced and entered into the Flame Region, following him like a demonic monster.
There were over a dozen people chasing after him. The others all hesitated slightly before following the Elders in.
The people chasing him split into three groups, leaving him only one path: the forward path deeper into the Flame Region.
