The Extreme Flame Zone.
This was where many people made their fortunes. At the same time, it was also where even more people met their end.
Not to mention the terrifying Flame Demons, the Heavenly Flame’s Burning Poison alone was enough to make all experts tremble in fear.
Burning Poison from ordinary flames could still be gradually treated and eliminated with medicine but the Burning Poison from Heavenly Flame was almost incurable. Therefore, those who came to the Extreme Flame Zone could not stay for too long.
Qin Yichen did not rush to approach the Extreme Flame Zone. He sat down cross-legged, quietly feeling the scorching air currents permeating all around him.
After closing his eyes, he could feel the scorching energy piercing his body like steel needles, forcefully trying to squeeze in.
These were the source of the Burning Poison.
“This Attribute…” While sensing, Qin Yichen’s brows furrowed. He discovered that these scorching air currents seemed to have their own consciousness, as if they were living things.
This discovery startled Qin Yichen.
This was something he had not anticipated beforehand. [No wonder in just three thousand years, it had formed such a dangerous place, even spawned terrifying creatures like the Flame Demons. Most likely, the Flame Demons are congregation of these scorching air currents. That’s why they are immortal and indestructible. They can spawn wherever there are these flames because they are made up of it.].
Under Qin Yichen’s control, his Yuan Energy began circulating, and then he witnessed something that shocked him.
His Yuan Energy was actually devouring these scorching air currents!!!
This discovery left Qin Yichen completely dumbfounded. He had never known what Attribute his internal Yuan Energy was, but it was certainly powerful and could counter many things.
Like Evil Spirit, Death Energy…
However, that was just countering. Now, this was devouring!
[Could it be that the Heavenly Flame of the Extreme Flame Zone shares the same source as my internal Yuan Energy?]
Sharing the same source meant having similarities.
Thinking about shared sources, Qin Yichen suddenly realized. [I guess my Yuan Energy does indeed carry characteristics akin to the Fire Attribute, but it is only akin to the Fire Attribute. It is not actually of the Fire Attribute].
However, regardless of whether they shared the same source, being able to devour meant the Heavenly Flame here could help him improve his cultivation.
“If it can be devoured…” Qin Yichen’s breathing became slightly rapid.
He had always relied on Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones to increase his cultivation. However, Heavenly Lightning Yuan Stones were inefficient.
The Heavenly Flame of the Extreme Flame Zone was different – if his Yuan Energy and it shared the same source, advancement would be much faster.
[Maybe…] Qin Yichen thoughtfully pondered over this.
Even Liang Hongsheng, a Martial King, was drenched in sweat, but he did not feel much. This must be the reason.
“If I could get the source…” Qin Yichen’s gaze turned toward the depths of the Extreme Flame Zone. His goal was no longer about destroying the fallen meteorite, but to refine it!
He became increasingly confident about this journey to the Extreme Flame Zone.
“Seems like the Flame Orbs are going to be useful to me.” Qin Yichen’s first goal was no longer to venture into the Extreme Flame Zone, but rather to focus on the Flame Demons’ cores – the Flame Orbs.
Flame Orbs actually had no use for ordinary people.
There was once a Fire Attribute Martial Artist that had died from Burning Poison after trying to refine a Flame Orb. Since then, no one dared to refine Flame Orbs anymore.
It could be said that for those who came to the Extreme Flame Zone, Flame Orbs were just proof for obtaining noble titles, nothing more.
Of course, even so, Flame Orbs’ prices were ridiculous, even reaching the point where millions of silver coins could not buy one.
After all, gathering a thousand ordinary Flame Orbs could be exchanged for a Baron title. With a title in the Grand Empire, one could stand above others from then on. Therefore, trying to exchange money for Flame Orbs was an extremely difficult matter.
However, Qin Yichen was not worried. He possessed what everyone coming to the Extreme Flame Zone needed.
Flame Repellent Pills.
This was what he had been refining these past few days.
Although he was not clear exactly how terrible the Extreme Flame Zone’s Burning Poison was, Flame Repellent Pills were necessary for traversing any territory that was rich in the Fire Element. With them, one would not need to fear the invasion of Burning Poison.
However, Flame Repellent Pills also had time limits. One pill could only last for a day at most.
Now having established his goal, Qin Yichen did not directly enter the Extreme Flame Zone, but walked toward a city near it.
Flame City.
This was the city’s name.
In Flame City, there were no luxurious mansions like other Grand Empire cities, no bustling crowds. It was quiet. Even at the city gates, there was not a single guard.
The houses here were all mud-brick houses. Even though separated from the Extreme Flame Zone by quite a distance, the temperature here was still above forty degrees.
Ordinary people simply could not resist such high temperatures.
People here, even passersby, were at least in the Martial Grandmaster Realm. Those who came here were generally Spirit Realm experts.
Occasionally, even Martial Kings would descend from the sky.
After arriving at Flame City, Qin Yichen was not in any hurry to find lodging. He walked around the entire city to understand the situation here.
As expected, the most numerous in this city were Medicine Shops, all selling Ice Attribute Pills to resist the invasion of the Burning Poison here.
The prices were somewhat ridiculous though. Even the worst Level One or Level Two Pills cost thousands of silver coins.
At the same time, Qin Yichen also learned of another peculiarity.
Not all experts who came here were seeking titles.
They had actually come to obtain Flame Orbs just to sell them for money. After all, one Flame Orb was worth over a million silver coins.
This was far more profitable than other jobs.
Of course, after earning this amount, without doubt, they would be left with chronic conditions, forever suffering the pain of the Burning Poison.
After calculating, Qin Yichen felt that if he wanted to obtain large quantities of Flame Orbs, the Pills he carried definitely were not enough. He needed to cooperate with a Medicine Shop.
Thinking this, Qin Yichen walked into a Medicine Shop.
This shop was named ‘Spirit Fire Pavilion’. It was considered one of the top two in Flame City.
Walking inside, Qin Yichen immediately felt a cool breeze hitting his face. Just standing inside was like being in a different world.
After entering, Qin Yichen discovered many people sitting inside, seemingly recuperating. Each one of their aura was not weak.
He even sensed a Martial King here.
Qin Yichen was not surprised by this though. He just walked directly toward the counter.
