Chapter 49 - Chapter 49: Clouds gather in all directions!

Jia Ma Empire, the imperial capital.

In a dark space, a man and a beast looked at each other.

At this moment, they both discovered the movement in the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

"Old man, could this be..."

Jia Xingtian frowned, as if thinking about something.

He just felt it clearly, a hot breath erupted from the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

Under the huge pupils of the Youhai Jiao Beast, his eyes rolled, "Yes, this is the breath of strange fire!"

The Youhai Jiao Beast's perception of strange fire is definitely far superior to Jia Xingtian's.

Because he is a magic beast himself, and the beast fire is bred in his body.

Therefore, as long as a strange fire is born in the territory of the Jia Ma Empire, he can sense it immediately.

"Is it really the Strange Fire?"

His suspicions confirmed, Jia Xingtian's furrowed brow showed no sign of relaxing.

Instead, a wave of unease welled up within him.

In recent times, his Jiama Empire has experienced countless anomalies.

First, there was the terrifying celestial anomaly three months ago, and now, the Strange Fire.

This caused Jia Xingtian to worry deeply about the future of the imperial family.

"I know what you're thinking, but now that things have come to this, any further worry is pointless. Rather than sit and wait for death, it's better to take the initiative."

The nearby Youhai dragon beast, as if seeing through Jia Xingtian's thoughts, stared at him with its massive head, unblinking.

"What do you mean?"

A flicker of hesitation crossed Jia Xingtian's eyes.

"Indeed, this strange fire must be controlled by the royal family!"

"Hasn't Yue'er become an alchemist? Let's consider it a gift to her, two old men!"

the Dark Sea Flood Beast said, its massive body suddenly bursting out of the water and landing before Jia Xingtian.

"But, your injuries..." Jia Xingtian said with some concern.

The Dark Sea Flood Beast was a sixth-tier magical beast, its combat power at its peak rivaling that of an eight-star Dou Huang.

However, due to frequent battles for the royal family, the Dark Sea Flood Beast had accumulated numerous hidden injuries.

Furthermore, its strength had declined significantly, and now it could only exert the combat power of a four-star Dou Huang!

"It's okay, don't worry about me!"

The Dark Sea Flood Beast shook its head. "The Yunlan Sect will definitely not give up on this battle for the Strange Fire. If you go alone, something unexpected might happen. After all, no one knows if that old immortal from Yunshan is still alive..."

"Alright!"

A gleam suddenly flashed in Jia Xingtian's eyes. "Then let's go to the Demonic Beast Mountain Range together."

With that, a pair of Dou Qi wings suddenly emerged from behind Jia Xingtian.

And just like that, man and beast soared into the sky...

...

Yunlan Sect, meeting hall.

"Please, Sect Master, help me!"

Yun Yun sat high in the main seat. Below him stood the figure of a middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man's appearance wasn't particularly remarkable, but his most striking feature was his alchemist's attire.

Meanwhile, on the medicine cauldron on his chest, six brilliant light patterns shone.

The man in the middle was none other than Gu He, the sixth-grade alchemist known as the King of Pills!

As an alchemist, Gu He had an almost crazy desire for strange fire.

So, when he realized that a strange fire was about to be born in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, he came to ask Yun Yun for help.

Yun Yun sat in the main seat, wearing a moon-colored robe with her hair piled high.

Her elegant and graceful temperament would fascinate countless hungry wolves.

After listening to Gu He's words, she thought for a moment and nodded lightly, "Okay, I will go with you."

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

Gu He's eyes flickered with ecstasy.

He desperately longed to obtain a strange fire. As a sixth-grade alchemist, he could only refine sixth-grade, primary-level elixirs.

However, if he could subdue a strange fire, he felt confident enough to even attempt a sixth-grade, advanced-level elixir.

Therefore, Gu He was determined to obtain the strange fire that had just emerged!

Now, with a Dou Huang expert taking action, the battle for the strange fire was almost certain to be won.

"Without further delay, let's set off immediately. This is a great opportunity to retrieve the Purple Spirit Crystal for Yanran."

"Okay!"

With that, the two of them, one in front and one behind, prepared to set off.

However, just as Yun Yun and Gu He were about to reach the door, a slightly older figure blocked their path.

"Master?"

Yun Yun raised her head in confusion. When she saw the figure's face clearly, her face lit up with excitement.

Ever since she took over as Sect Leader, Yun Shan had been in seclusion.

So, calculating the time, Yun Yun hadn't seen her master in almost ten days.

"Greetings, old Sect Leader."

Gu He also hurriedly and respectfully bowed to Yun Shan.

"Hmm..."

Yun Shan nodded calmly, then turned to Yun Yun and said, "Are you heading to the Demon Beast Mountain Range to steal the Strange Fire?" "

Master, aren't you in seclusion? How did you know?"

Yun Yun nodded, but a wave of confusion welled up in her heart.

During his retreat, Master had completely cut off all perception of the outside world. How did he know about the Strange Fire's appearance?

"Hehe..."

Yun Shan didn't reply, but smiled faintly.

Then, he took a step forward, and a terrifying aura suddenly unleashed from his body.

"Master, have you made a breakthrough?"

Yun Yun's eyes widened, a flicker of surprise washing over her pretty face.

"It was just a fluke."

In a split second, Yun Shan withdrew his aura. "I sense the presence of the old demon from the royal family and the Nether Sea Flood Beast, heading towards the Demonic Beast Mountain Range." "

If it were just the two of you, you'd never be able to defeat them, so I'm going with you this time."

After hearing Yun Shan's words, Yun Yun nodded in sudden realization.

Fortunately, Master emerged from seclusion just in time, otherwise, she and Gu He would have been in for a nasty fight.

"With the old sect leader's intervention, the fate of the strange fire is sealed."

Gu He was the happiest person.

With a Dou Zong powerhouse like Yun Shan by his side, who in the entire Jiamao Empire could possibly stand up to him?

"Then let's set off immediately!"

Gu He urged, unable to contain his excitement.

"Hurry!"

With that, the three of them suddenly soared into the sky...

Simultaneously, from every corner of the Jiama Empire, winged figures could be seen, all rushing in the same direction.

These included the three great families of the Jiama Empire, the Alchemist Guild, and even several powerful individuals who had remained hidden from the world.

In this way, almost all of the Jiama Empire's top forces were heading towards the Warcraft Mountains! This kind of grand spectacle was a once-in-a -century event in the Jiama Empire...
