Caidie blinked her bright peach blossom eyes, curiously watching Yao Yan swallow the Netherworld Poison Fire into his stomach. She couldn't help but reach out and touch Yao Yan's chest, and asked in a low voice: "Just eat it like this? Sir, aren't you worried about its backlash~"

That's a strange fire!

"Hmm~" Ling'er shook her big tail and tilted her head. She didn't feel much, nor did she think that the strange fire was delicious. In her opinion, those strange fires were all very fierce and not as delicious as the pills.

"I already have five kinds of strange fire in my body, and their levels are higher than this one, so I'll be fine." Yao Yan smiled and explained softly. With his current physique, even if he allowed the Netherworld Poison Fire to torment him, it would be difficult for it to hurt Yao Yan.

He was not in a hurry to refine and devour the Netherworld Poison Fire. He planned to go into seclusion after obtaining another strange fire.

"Let's go to the location of the other strange fire." Yao Yan tore the space in front of him casually, reached out and pulled Caidie into it, and headed towards the extreme north of the northwest continent, because the other strange fire was in the desert in the extreme north.

It was a dead silent world. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but desert. It was even more desolate than the Tagor Desert and there was not even a trace of life.

At least there are traces of Warcraft and snake people in the Tagor Desert, and some exotic flowers and plants can be seen on the roadside, but the extreme north of the northwest continent does not even have these. There is only endless desert and strong winds, and even the energy of heaven and earth is extremely thin, almost non-existent.

Therefore, this place is called the Sea of ​​Death by people in the northwest continent!
……

"Wow~"

Endless gales swept across the sky and earth, blowing up yellow sand all over the sky, covering the scorching sun in the sky and turning this place into a dark world, as if there would be no end.

Suddenly, a space crack appeared from high in the sky, and a moment later, two people and a fox walked out of it.

"Om~"

An invisible ripple spread out from under the feet of the leading man. Wherever it passed, the raging sandstorms between heaven and earth calmed down. As the fine sand slid down lightly, the dim sky and earth gradually became clear, and the sunlight became more dazzling.

Yao Yan looked at the scorching sun in the sky. Unlike the sun in the Izumo Empire, the sun in the Sea of ​​Death had a blood-red color. Even the sky was gray and filled with a sense of death. He felt it for a moment and said, "Sea of ​​Death? The name fits this place very well..."

"It was also a matter of luck that we were able to find that strange fire. There is no regular pattern to its appearance, but every time it appears, it will stir up a huge sandstorm, and in the very center, there will be a fire tornado with very powerful power!" Caidie looked at the familiar scene in front of her and recounted what she saw that year.

There was a pause.

She looked at Yao Yan and reminded him, "If you want to find it, you have to rely on Ling'er. She seems to be able to sense the breath of strange fire. Also... you can't stay here for long!"

"I feel it." Yao Yan nodded slightly, then raised his hand and clenched it. He could clearly feel that the fighting spirit in his body was escaping to the outside world, but the speed was extremely slow. It could be suppressed with a little control. However, this incident just showed the horror of the Sea of ​​Death.

You know, Yao Yan's strength has reached the level of high-level semi-saint, and even he has been affected. If it were a cultivator below the Dou Wang level, he would probably be drained dry by this place in a few days.

This sea of ​​death is like a dried-up sponge that absorbs all nutrients and devours all living things.

This place should be close to the edge of the Douqi Continent. It is gradually dying, like a withered petal, eroding inwards bit by bit.

People die, and so does the world.

The Douqi Continent is a sealed world that has been cut off from the greater world. It cannot be replenished with the origin of the greater world. The origin it contains will eventually be consumed, and it will inevitably die, turning into a dead place like the scene before its eyes.

That day may come tens of millions of years later, but it is an indisputable fact that the Douqi Continent is heading towards decline.

The energy of heaven and earth, the resources for cultivation... everything will only become less and less.

"Ling'er, it's your turn to work!" Caidie gently pinched Ling'er's neck, looked into her sparkling eyes, and urged her that if they wanted to find the mysterious fire, they had to rely on the little fox in front of them.

"Oh~" Ling'er shook her front hooves and called out to Yaoyan twice, as if she wanted to ask for help. The little foodie obviously didn't want to do such a hard task.

"You eat so much every day, and when I ask you to do something, you always make excuses." Caidie pinched Ling'er's ear angrily and said unhappily.

Yao Yan watched the interaction between the man and the fox, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly: "There is no need for Ling'er to look for it. It is enough to determine the general location... The energy of heaven and earth in the Death Sea is too thin. If the strange fire wants to grow, it can only absorb the fire energy emitted by the scorching sun in the sky. It should not have had any big meals."

He raised his hand and condensed a fire spirit, charging it with the fighting spirit in his body, causing its size to expand rapidly. After a short while, it transformed into a giant purple-blue python, with a body nearly a hundred feet long coiled up, emitting rich fire energy and the aura of the origin of the strange fire.

Yao Yan brought Caidie and Ling'er to the head of the fire python, controlled the fire spirit to release the energy to the extreme, and then waited quietly.

"Young Master, is this feasible?" Caidie asked Yaoyan while holding Ling'er.

"According to your description, the strange fire here should be the Wind Fury Dragon Flame, which ranks 18th on the Strange Fire List!" Yao Yan stood on the top of the fire python, with his hands behind his back, looking at the dim sky in the distance, and talked freely: "This fire can only be born in the eye of the fire tornado in the ancient desert. Unlike other strange fires, it has no fixed place to appear, and will only appear randomly in any place in the desert during the hottest days of each year. It is extremely rare... If you want to encounter it, you can only rely on luck."

He smiled and looked at Caidie, saying, "You are so lucky to meet her!"

Caidie naturally would not say that she had been searching here for half a year. She just had a smile on her face and listened to Yaoyan quietly. She liked staying with him like this, even if she did nothing.

Ling'er, feeling somewhat uncomfortable from the oppression, patted that plump and soft spot in dissatisfaction.

Yao Yan glanced at it silently, and then continued: "According to my inference, it should appear on those few days every year to eat. Once it finishes eating, it will fall into a deep sleep... We don't have time to wait here slowly. Instead of relying on luck, we might as well throw some bait and lure it to the hook!"

He didn't believe that Fengfu Dragon Flame, which had been staying here, could withstand the temptation of the five origins of strange fire. Unless its intelligence had reached an extremely high level, it would definitely be fooled.

But if it had a high level of intelligence, how could it stay in a place like the Sea of ​​Death?

Yao Yan's inference was obviously correct.

After waiting for about three hours, the originally quiet world was suddenly swept by gusts of wind. The sky in the distance was instantly covered by a sandstorm, like a desert tsunami that covered the sky and the sun, covering the location where Yao Yan was.

"It appeared!" Yao Yan said softly with a faint smile on his face.

"Sigh~"

Under Yao Yan's control, the fire spirit was like a living thing, spitting out its snake tongue, and its purple eyes quietly watched the sandstorm sweeping in. In Yao Yan's perception, there was a nearly 100-foot-long fire dragon behind the sandstorm, staring coldly at this side. It seemed to be the incarnation of fire and storm, surrounded by wind and fire, yellow-brown in color, carrying a sandstorm that was enough to destroy a city, and swept towards Yao Yan's location.

The picture is extremely spectacular and eye-catching.

Unfortunately, that's all.

Yao Yan did not hesitate, and the moment he appeared, he stretched out his palm. An invisible palm print condensed between heaven and earth, just like pulling back a mysterious veil, and lifted the sandstorm that was enough to cover the sky and the sun, revealing the fire tornado behind it. Then he grabbed it with one hand, and poured out terrifying power, not giving Feng Nu Long Yan any chance to escape. He directly crushed the outer camouflage and grabbed its real body.

A wisp of khaki flame.

A dozen miles away, Yao Yan took the wisp of earth-yellow flame into his palm, looked at it for a few seconds, and swallowed it into his mouth. Then he looked at Caidie and said with a smile: "Let's go, it's time to go back."

After saying that, he tore open the space and left with Caidie and Ling'er.

As the two of them left.

The sandstorm without the fierce wind and raging dragon flame gradually subsided. At this moment, there was not even a trace of wind in the Sea of ​​Death, and it fell into absolute silence.

……

……

Izumo Empire, Ten Thousand Poison Mountains.

Yao Yan did not return directly to the temple of the snake people. After obtaining the two strange fires, he chose to go into seclusion in the Ten Thousand Poison Mountains. This place was filled with poisonous miasma that had not dissipated for thousands of years. It was the most suitable place for him to condense the poisonous body.

Caidie stood not far away holding Ling'er, quietly accompanying Yaoyan in his retreat. Ling'er didn't make any noise either. As long as she had the pills to take, she could just lie there for the rest of her life.

Yao Yan sat cross-legged in the void. There was no aura of any strong man around him. His body seemed to have merged into the space. As time passed, a wisp of ochre-colored flame rose around him, but it only rose for a moment before being swallowed up by the purple-blue flame, forcibly merging into it.

In less than half a day, he had forcibly refined and swallowed the Wind Fury Dragon Flame, and the fighting spirit in his body increased slightly.

"Sure enough, it has no effect at all." Yao Yan opened his eyes. There was no surprise in his dark eyes. He had already advanced to the Heavenly Rank of the Burning Technique. The lower-ranked strange fire had no effect on him at all. However, the value of the strange fire was not just to improve the Burning Technique.

He opened his palm, and a ball of wind-attribute energy visible to the naked eye condensed on it, gradually forming a tornado. At the moment it was about to take shape, it quietly dissipated.

Yao Yan felt his control over the attribute of wind, and after a moment, he closed his eyes and continued to refine the Netherworld Poison Fire. This was the highlight of this retreat, and whether he could push open the door depended on this time.

The process of refining and devouring was even easier than that of the Wind Fury Dragon Flame. Almost as soon as they came into contact, the Netherworld Poisonous Fire was integrated into the Burning Decision Fighting Qi.

It also did not bring any changes to the Burning Decision.

Yao Yan raised his hand and summoned the fused strange fire. The originally purple-blue flame became deeper and deeper, and the aura became more and more unfathomable. Ling'er on the side was so frightened that her hair stood on end, staring at the flame in Yao Yan's palm.

The fusion of different fires is not as simple as one plus one. With the fusion of each different fire, the different fire controlled by Yao Yan has now fused seven different fires. The aura it emits is gradually approaching that of Emperor Yan... That aura is superior to all the different fires!
Even Ling'er, who was usually lazy, couldn't sit still and was shaking her body restlessly.

"What's wrong?" Caidie didn't know all this. She just looked at the uneasy Ling'er, and then looked at Yao Yan who was playing with the fusion of strange fire in the distance. Her beautiful eyes flashed slightly, and she seemed to have some guesses.

Yao Yan ignored Ling'er's movement. He pondered for a moment, a faint green light flashed in his eyes, and then the flame in his palm merged into his body. He then activated the Burning Technique in his body and released control of his own aura. An indescribable vast aura instantly filled the world.

The terrifying pressure almost crushed this world.

"Boom~"

A silver bolt of lightning streaked across the dark clouds in the sky, illuminating the world.

As the Burning Decree was put into operation, strange phenomena appeared in heaven and earth, as if they could not withstand this level of extraction!

next moment.

Many powerful men in the Izumo Empire opened their eyes and looked towards the location of the Ten Thousand Poison Mountains. They saw that the poisonous miasma that had shrouded the Ten Thousand Poison Mountains for many years was gathering towards the depths at a speed visible to the naked eye. The horrifying scene was almost terrifying.

No idea what other people felt, but some poison masters near the Ten Thousand Poison Mountains were already scared silly. They looked at the scene in horror, feeling the pressure coming from deep within, and sweating coldly.

"Is some extremely dangerous creature going to appear in the Ten Thousand Poison Mountains?!"

"Don't panic. If something really happens, we have the strong men of the snake people to support us. What do we have to be afraid of?"

"Then why are you packing up?!"

"Aren't you going to run away and wait for death?!"

……

Cai Lin naturally also saw this scene. She frowned slightly, then took a step into the depths of the Ten Thousand Poison Mountains and appeared in the poisonous swamp world. At the same time, she also saw Yao Yan who had entered the state of cultivation in the sky. Feeling the breath emanating from him, she became a little dazed.

"Is this the realm of the Fighting Saint?" she murmured to herself, as if she had realized the horror of that level. She then bit her lip unwillingly. She had tried very hard to catch up with Yao Yan, but was still left far behind by the other party.

Not only has the gap not narrowed at all, but it has become even bigger!

"Sister~" Caidie came to Cailin's side carrying Ling'er, and then the two sisters looked at Yao Yan who had entered a state of cultivation in the sky.

The other party was extracting the poisonous miasma from the entire Ten Thousand Poison Mountains at a terrifying speed and absorbing it into his body. His body was like an abyss that could never be filled, swallowing up endless poisonous miasma. Some poisonous insects, rats and ants mixed in it were directly transformed into nutrients by the strange fire and absorbed into his body!

"What are you going to do?" Cai Lin's cold eyes were filled with confusion as she whispered to herself. (End of this chapter)
