Chapter 80: Excavating the Earth Fire Wells!
Just three short days had passed.
It had reached the day to visit the Refining Artifact Peak. At the time of departure today, the most excited one on the Green Bamboo Peak was Xiao Yu.
Beneath her green dress, she was still barefoot. According to Xiao Yu, shoes were restrictive and uncomfortable. Moreover, she was originally of the Wood Element Demon Spirit physique, so stepping barefoot on the ground was also good for combat when encountering enemies.
The spirited Xiao Yu stood tall on the head of the Black Lizard. Gazing into the distance with a pair of clear, crystal eyes, at this moment she looked in the direction of the Refining Artifact Peak.
She felt as if countless high-quality spirit medicines were waving at her. She had been enduring for three days for this day.
"Hehe, this lady is going to make a fortune!"
Xiao Yu couldn't help but laugh in a low voice.
"Big liar, let's go. Don't let those few old men at the Refining Artifact Peak wait too anxiously!"
Xiao Yu urged.
Lin Xuan put on the Saint Son's robe. Yesterday, he had personally gone to the sect's main peak, originally wanting to meet the Holy Lord Gongsun Chi.
But he was told by several core disciples that Gongsun Chi had suffered some injuries due to the attack aftermath of the Tribulation Crossing Realm on the human-demon border line and was currently recuperating.
He only sent the planned drawings and some necessary information to Gongsun Chi via transmission, and also obtained his permission. Lin Xuan came back to his senses, hearing Xiao Yu beside him urging him.
He nodded at her, who was extremely excited.
Immediately, he stepped out with a relaxed demeanor. The Golden Sun Robe moved without wind, and a gentle breeze supported his body as he flew towards the Refining Artifact Peak.
"Da Hei, hurry up and keep up with the big liar!"
Xiao Yu patted the Demon Lizard beneath her, saying excitedly.
"Roger that!"
The Demon Lizard named Da Hei did not dare to have the slightest dissatisfaction.
Wild wind suddenly rose beneath its four limbs, and its body chased after Lin Xuan's back like an arrow leaving the bowstring. In just a few breaths, it disappeared into the vast clouds and mist.
One person, one demon spirit, and one demon arrived at the Refining Artifact Peak in half a quarter-hour.
Looking from afar at the Refining Artifact Peak, countless refining workshops stood in great numbers. There were countless busy disciples coming and going, and without exception, they all wore joyful expressions.
Unlike in the past when, due to the resources of one Earth Fire Well, wanting to borrow earth fire to split stream refining would require scheduling for half a month.
The elders above had clearly informed them that Saint Son Lin possessed the ability to open Earth Fire Wells. Not only would he help the Refining Artifact Peak open up two more Earth Fire Wells, but he also planned to include the two peaks around the Refining Artifact Peak, Sky Wolf and Six Liang, into the plan.
What was even more exciting was that a total of ten Earth Fire Wells were to be opened on the three peaks!
With ten Earth Fire Wells, splitting out a hundred refining workshops from each would mean there would be no more talk of scheduling or queuing.
The Refining Artifact Peak was like an engine injected with powerful power. It would absolutely burst forth with unimaginable power!
"Saint Son Lin is here!"
"Saint Son Lin is here!"
A group of Refining Artifact Peak disciples saw Lin Xuan draped in the Golden Sun Robe. Each one hurriedly finished the tasks at hand and started rubbing their fists and palms, preparing to go all out.
On the great hall at the top of the Refining Artifact Peak, the three elders, Wei Mingxuan and the others, who had been waiting for a long time, walked out of the great hall together.
Bowing to Lin Xuan who came stepping on the air, they said: "Saint Son!"
"Have you prepared everything according to my arrangements?"
Lin Xuan asked.
"Replying to the Saint Son, the Refining Artifact Peak disciples have been preparing for three days. They have set up Fire Induction Arrays at various locations. Additionally, the ten cauldrons of the third rank or higher requested by the Saint Son are all in this storage bag!"
Wei Mingxuan respectfully took out a brown storage bag and held it in his hands. Lin Xuan casually summoned it into his hand.
After his spiritual sense explored it, he sensed ten copper-yellow giant cauldrons in a sealed space. Lin Xuan swept his gaze over them; each was a cauldron above the third rank.
"Good, let the disciples get into action!"
Lin Xuan said.
"Xiao Yu, as the supervisor, your task is to put these ten copper-yellow giant cauldrons in place after the earth fire is sealed!"
Lin Xuan brought the storage bag in front of Xiao Yu.
"Also, you cannot run around in this place. Drawing out two Earth Fire Wells on the Refining Artifact Peak with so many disciples is not an easy matter. It will seal off a space!"
Lin Xuan said to Xiao Yu.
"Follow me!"
After speaking, Lin Xuan took a step out and turned into a fleeting remnant shadow, flying towards the side of a Jade Wave Pool on the Refining Artifact Peak.
At the original spot, Xiao Yu, standing on Da Hei's head, grit her small silver teeth.
"Big liar!"
Xiao Yu glanced at Wei Mingxuan below and the other few Refining Artifact Peak disciples.
Wei Mingxuan, having been glanced at by Xiao Yu, felt his body suddenly tremble. That sixth-rank spirit medicine he had treasured for many years—since giving it to Xiao Yu, he had been quite heartbroken about it!
Just as Xiao Yu was thinking of crooked thoughts, a seal mark suddenly floated on her right arm.
Xiao Yu stamped her foot on the spot and chased after Lin Xuan.
"Big liar, just wait for the old woman to come find you. You are abusing child labor!"
Xiao Yu flew to the side of Lin Xuan, who was flying leisurely, and said.
"Who abused child labor? Originally you were saying excitedly that you were willing to eat any kind of hardship!"
Lin Xuan looked at her with eyes full of smiles.
"You big liar, what supervisor does this kind of thing? It is clearly bullying people!"
Xiao Yu said angrily.
But Lin Xuan no longer paid attention to her, instead heading straight for the place where the first Fire Induction Array was arranged. Previously, Lin Xuan had already let the people of the Refining Artifact Peak set up the Fire Induction Arrays.
What the array lacked was just that one bit of fire source primer!
At a place halfway up the mountain, Lin Xuan floated half a meter in the air. His spiritual sense swept over the array on the ground, confirming that there were no problems with the array.
And at this time, Wei Mingxuan led the people of the Refining Artifact Peak and sealed the area within two li of this Earth Fire Well with an array shield!
Buzz!
A thick layer of array shields emerged from all directions, sealing everything within a radius of two li, neither more nor less.
"Great Artifact Refining Art!"
With a thought from Lin Xuan, a cluster of hot flames suddenly popped out on his right palm. The next moment, the fist-sized flame rapidly shrank.
This happened nine times like this.
On the ninth time, it condensed into a fire awn the size of a grain of rice. The formidable flame power, with Lin Xuan's right palm as the center, swept towards the surroundings.
The plants within ten zhang instantly withered, and the ground cracked open with shocking fissures.
"Take position, earth fire come out!"
With a thought from Lin Xuan, he accurately placed the orange-red flame into the array eye.
Boom boom boom...
In an instant, rolling fire power swept in all directions. The eighteen fire-induction needles buried underground, after being charged by the flame, instantly released sky-filling fire energy.
Immediately following, the entire Refining Artifact Peak began to tremble.
Boom...
A sky-rushing fire column shattered the rock barrier and broke directly out of the ground. Rolling flames swept in all directions.
"Seal!"
Immediately, Lin Xuan's hands flipped up and down before the fire column. In just a blink of an eye, he struck out dozens of hand seals.
The sealing array outside the Fire Induction Array was activated. Under the power of the array, the sky-reaching fire column only existed for a few breaths before being sealed beneath the array.
The destruction caused by the fire column during those few breaths was also reduced to the surrounding two li because of the sealing grand array arranged by the many disciples of the Refining Artifact Peak together.
