Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1564 Soul Flame

Ye Qing had witnessed the battle between sages firsthand outside the Taixi Mountains.

Among sages, their words become law. Their every move not only resonates with heaven and earth, but even their ultimate techniques can be unleashed effortlessly, requiring almost no effort to build up, just like ordinary moves!

Even from afar, Ye Qing felt a tremor that emanated from his very soul!

At this moment, the two sage-level experts on both sides were evenly matched, and neither could gain the upper hand over the other.

In addition, there were many Venerables and Domain Lords at both sides clashing.

After watching for a while, Ye Qing endured the intense burning sensation and said, "What do we do now? That thing is in the air!"

The big yellow dog's expression shifted, and it asked, "Can your domain cover that area?"

“Covering it up shouldn’t be a problem!” the big yellow dog said.

“If the domain expands, you can teleport there instantly and take everything away!” the big yellow dog said.

“That’s probably difficult. There might be something else beneath that altar!” Ye Qing said. “And didn’t you notice? Neither side has touched the Flameless Fire. That thing is hovering there. If their target is the same thing, they will definitely rush in that direction.”

“But that’s not the case right now, which is a bit strange!” Ye Qing said. “Moreover, even if I use my domain to rush over, these are saints. Once I withdraw my domain, it will be difficult to escape under their noses!”

"Damn it, seeing such a treasure right in front of you and not being able to get it is really frustrating!" the big yellow dog cursed and said, "Hey kid, don't you have any ideas?"

"I think we need to find out what's going on with that stone first!" Ye Qing said thoughtfully. "I actually have a solution too!"

"What method?" the big yellow dog asked.

Ye Qing pointed to the lava river beneath their feet and said, "Let's go down into the lava river. Once we're below this altar, I'll use my mental power to test the condition of this stone. If it can move, I'll open my domain and hide the Great Evolution Pagoda at the bottom of the lava. After I collect it, I'll go inside the Great Evolution Pagoda and hide there."

At this point, Ye Qing pondered for a moment and said, "I can also use the magician's abilities to create chaos and cover for us!"

"The problem is that this means we'll have to go deep into the heart of the Saintly Battle Group. These four Saintly experts are fighting around this altar, and there's a terrifying aura emanating from it. There should be some kind of creature inside the altar," Ye Qing said. "Besides, we also have to go deep into the bottom of this magma. As you've felt down there, it's impossible to tell which way is which!"

The big yellow dog's expression shifted, and he said, "You could try your method. I'll take you there!"

"Can you tell directions?" Ye Qing asked.

"I'm a dog, my nose is sharp!" the big yellow dog cursed.

Ye Qing then came to his senses and nodded, saying, "Okay!"

The two entered the lava again.

The magma was extremely deep. Ye Qing sank hundreds of meters down, and the surrounding temperature seemed to have risen even higher. Ye Qing felt that he had reached the limit of what he could endure.

Then the big yellow dog pulled Ye Qing along. Even in the thick lava, the big yellow dog's nose was still very useful.

The two continued on their way, and soon they arrived at the foot of the altar. The big yellow dog exhaled, for Ye Qing was completely enveloped in lava and could not speak!

The big yellow dog used its energy to separate the lava somewhat, then looked at Ye Qing and said, "Kid, we're directly below this altar now. Try using your mental energy. Spread it out a bit, don't let them pinpoint your location!"

"That's exactly what I'm worried about!" Ye Qing said, "They are Saint-level experts..."

"Just use it, I'll use my technique to conceal your aura!" The big yellow dog muttered something to itself, then placed its paw on Ye Qing and said, "You can use it now!"

Ye Qing nodded.

Then his mental energy quickly spread out!

In an instant, all the auras on the battlefield above appeared in Ye Qing's mind.

He saw four saints fighting!

He saw the woman holding a pipe, who exuded the aura of a peak Venerable.

Similarly, he also saw Wen Jia and Zhou Bai above him, their faces contorted in pain, their bodies seemingly withering away.

He saw below the altar, where the little boy was sitting in front of a flame, with two people guarding him behind him. The little boy was talking to the flame!

The flames were pitch black and malevolent, as if some terrifying creature lurked within them.

Even with just a mental probe, Ye Qing felt as if his soul was trembling.

This pressure was far greater than that of the saints.

"What's wrong?" the big yellow dog asked, seeing Ye Qing's pale face.

"Within the altar, there is a terrifying creature, hidden in the black flames!" Ye Qing said.

"Black flames, are you sure?" the big yellow dog asked.

"Yes!" Ye Qing nodded and asked, "What is this?"

“No wonder there’s flameless fire here! If I’m not mistaken, this thing is an ancient evil beast, Jiu Xuan! The black flames you see are soul fire, which can burn a person’s soul!” The big yellow dog said, “However… judging from the current situation, this beast should not be an adult yet.”

"I don't know about that. The power from those people is flowing towards him!" Ye Qing said. "Among the Mi clan members, there seems to be a child communicating with him!" Ye Qing added.

"Communicate with it?" The big yellow dog's expression shifted. "Then it seems that this thing was sealed in this place, and these people are providing it with energy to break the seal!"

"Don't worry about that for now. Try it and see if you can lift that flameless fire," the big yellow dog said.

Ye Qing nodded, and then he tried to use his mental power to move closer to the fiery red crystal!
