"Young Master, it's getting late. His Highness is waiting for you. It's time for you to come over." After an unknown amount of time, the maid gently woke him up. Two other maids prepared a loose nightgown by the hot spring pool.
Tang Yan woke up, feeling refreshed and feeling comfortable all over, but he still felt awkward in his heart. After hesitating for a while, he put on his nightgown: "Just wear this?"
"only this."
"Didn't you prepare any underwear?"
"Young Master, please." The maids looked like robots and ignored the teasing words implicit in his words.
Tang Yan helplessly arranged his pajamas, and followed the maids' lead all the way to the main palace at the top of the Immortal Mountain, which is the palace of the Immortal Phoenix. All the maids stopped outside, bowed their heads respectfully, and then retreated in turn.
"Mother, are you looking for me?" Tang Yan stood outside the palace door and called tentatively.
"Come in." A cold voice came from inside, which was different from the blazing high temperature barrier of the palace, making people feel cold from the bottom of their hearts.
"The child has come in." Tang Yan deliberately raised his voice and shouted, pushed the door in, and closed the door smoothly. The palace was very dark, empty, quiet, and no one was around. Only clumps of flames floated out of thin air, and came from the door.
It extended all the way to the depths of the palace, as if leading him.
Tang Yan subconsciously tightened his nightgown. Following the guidance of the flames, he turned into the depths of the palace and walked to a secret door. After pushing it open, he looked down and saw a spiral staircase going all the way down.
There is no bottom visible, like it leads to a dark underground, with only scattered fireballs floating on the edge of the stairs.
What? So mysterious! Tang Yan walked down the stairs for tens of thousands of steps. He was almost numb. It felt like the stairs ran through the entire fairy mountain and went straight to the ground. Finally... Tang Yan was drowsy.
When we reach the bottom of the stairs, the space is still very narrow. There is only a blazing fire door in front, embedded in the dark stone wall. The size of the fire door can only allow one person to pass through.
Just when Tang Yan was wondering, the cold voice of His Highness the Immortal Phoenix came out from behind the fire door again, but this time...
"Take off your clothes and come in."
Take it off... Tang Yan almost choked, scratched his head stupidly, subconsciously touched his collar, and managed to hold back a tone: "Ah??"
"Take off your clothes and come in!!" The voice inside was cold, echoing in the narrow space through the fire door.
"I still need to take off my clothes." Tang Yan looked up, then looked around, licked his lips, and muttered strangely: "Our... relationship... this... isn't very ethical."
"Green Fire Juyi! Protect the body! Come in!" Three voices came out in succession, all of them were as cold as ice shaken from the eaves, without any human emotion.
"Ah? Ah." Tang Yan secretly grinned, almost slapped himself, and pulled off his nightgown. The ghost green fire evaporated on its own, flowing turbulently throughout his body. He secretly abandoned his weird thoughts and calmly stepped through the fire door.
The next moment!! Boom boom boom!!
The scene in front of me was bright red, and a fierce and domineering magma rushed towards me, and there was magma in all directions. It was like a pack of wolves galloping, and like a battlefield with thousands of troops. The roar was endless, and there were waves of magma rushing, colliding, and splashing everywhere.
The sky was filled with fire and rain, and the terrifying high temperature was about to melt the space.
What appeared before Tang Yan's eyes was a blazing ocean of magma!
All he could see was the viscous and fiery magma tide, which could not be seen to the edge. When he looked up, he saw ferocious red sharp stone ballast, like stalactites in an underground cave, but covered by magma and dripping continuously.
There are two completely different worlds before and after the Fire Gate!
Outside the fire door, there is silence and darkness, and the flames are flickering.
In front of the Fire Gate, high temperatures corrode bones and magma surges.
Tang Yan was submerged by the lava coming towards him. The terrifying high temperature and the strange flames contained in it almost melted the clothes condensed by the ghost green fire. Phew!! The ghost green fire protected the master on its own, the light was blazing, and the fire surged.
The whirlpool-like posture spread out forcefully and violently pushed back the magma.
"There is a cave under the fairy mountain!"
Tang Yan walked out of the magma ocean on the green fire wave and stood in mid-air. Huo Ling'er appeared unconsciously and squatted on Tang Yan's head, looking at the surrounding world of flames with question marks on his face.
It is roughly estimated that this magma ocean world located underground is at least ten kilometers wide, covering the entire fairy palace complex in the core area of Nanhuang. However, the temperature of the space is extremely high, and the green fire barrier has to be fully propped up to resist the energy of the space.
Terrible heat.
In the middle of the entire magma world, not far from Tang Yan's foothold, there is a blood-red building that is only half the size of a football field, but it can survive the erosion of magma. Its toughness can be imagined
.
The blood-red color is irregular and does not have any special embellishments. It is just a complete boulder, as if it exists naturally. From time to time, surging waves of magma will collide on it, causing terrifying rain of fire to fall all over the sky. The scene is gorgeous but shocking.
In the blood-red sky, dazzling red flames were billowing, raging non-stop, and there was a vague sonorous cry, echoing throughout the entire magma world, containing a strange sense of sharp force, like a sharp blade tearing apart the space.
Is that a fire phoenix?
Tang Yan walked toward that building, and the closer he got, the clearer it became that the flame in the sky was actually a fire phoenix spreading its wings. It was red and dazzling, with golden light, gorgeous and cold. It exuded terrifying heat, like a master in the sea of fire, with the look of looking down on all living things.
It is majestic, and even more proud of overlooking the sea of fire, but it is purely a gathering of flames, not the true body of the Fire Phoenix.
In the depths of the spreading flames, a figure could be vaguely seen sitting cross-legged in silence. Because the temperature was extremely high, the space around her was almost distorted. She could not see her appearance clearly, and could not see anything clearly, but it should be Her Majesty the Immortal Phoenix.
"Mother." Tang Yan landed on the ground and saluted respectfully. Huo Ling'er raised her little head and blinked at the fire phoenix high in the sky.
"Starting today, we will be in seclusion for one year!" The cold voice of the Immortal Phoenix came from the twisted space.
The phantom of the fire phoenix spreading its wings in the sky moved slowly, filled with a terrifying temperature like burning the sky and melting the earth. It lowered its head slightly and stared at Tang Yan, or at Huo Ling'er on his body.
Tang Yan couldn't help but breathe quickly, feeling as if he had fallen into Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace and was about to be roasted to death. Huo Ling'er was so frightened that she quickly retracted into his hair, only revealing her small head and looking nervously.
High in the sky.
"Retreat? Here?" The corner of Tang Yan's mouth twitched slightly, thinking that he heard wrongly. Although he was a semi-saint, retreat was not a trivial matter and required calmness. He really had no confidence in maintaining calm in such a hot and chaotic underground world.
"Since ancient times, 'Fire' has been the most powerful thing in the world. It is extremely domineering and fierce in nature, and its wildness is comparable to 'Thunder' and 'Electricity'. Heavenly Fire is the emperor of fire, and its temperament should be extremely crazy, extremely domineering, and extremely violent.
But is the sky fire in you a little bit 'wild'? As the inheritor of the green fire, your responsibility is to protect the growth of the ghost green fire, but it is not to let it enjoy itself comfortably."
In the twisted space, the flames were slightly dispersed, and the image inside was slightly clearer, showing the true appearance of the immortal phoenix, but it was different from the phoenix crown and harem, gold and silver dingpei, and no fiery red robe wrapped around it when they first met in the fairy palace.
From Tang Yan's point of view, she could vaguely see her beautiful face, and even more clearly, her snow-white neck and delicate and round collarbone?! Like jet black hair, scattered on her snow-white body!
No clothes on? Tang Yan's eyes were glued to her delicate and round collarbones and snow-white and delicate shoulders. No matter how hard he moved away, his brain was buzzing, his pupils were slightly dilated, and his breathing suddenly became sluggish.
I have seen the real face of the immortal phoenix for a long time, and the visual impact of that year is still fresh in my memory. She is as beautiful as a royal queen, as beautiful as a beautiful girl, as clear as a flower, and as fragrant as a jade. It is indescribable luxury and respect, and its indescribable elegance is peerless!
And today...she actually...
But the wonderful thought passed away in a flash, and Tang Yan bit the tip of his tongue as if he was awakened, telling himself not to have any random fantasies. He took a deep breath, sat cross-legged in silence, and accepted the instruction of the immortal phoenix.
He somewhat understood the character of the Immortal Phoenix. Since he personally ordered him to come here and introduced her to her secret retreat, it must not be a simple retreat. There may be something more important. "Please give me a lesson, Mother."
"This retreat lasts for one year. You can release the ghost green fire with all your strength and let it release the power of the green fire. I will release the power of the phoenix true fire. The two fire powers will blend in space. I can make the phoenix true fire swallow the green fire.
With the power, you can urge the ghost green fire to swallow the power of the phoenix's true fire." The immortal phoenix proposed its own concept of illusion.
Tang Yan's eyes changed, and he secretly understood what the immortal phoenix meant.
Does she want to swallow her own sky fire essence, and then let herself swallow her phoenix flame essence? Let them eat each other, complement each other, and grow together?
Brilliant idea!!
If the Ghost Green Fire can swallow up part of the Phoenix True Fire, it will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes. For the Ghost Green Fire that is still in the growth stage, the Phoenix True Fire will definitely be a great supplement like an elixir.
For the immortal phoenix, the pure firepower that can swallow the ancient sky fire ghost green fire can also make her phoenix true fire more condensed and better improved, which may help her consolidate the realm she just broke through in one fell swoop!
Win-win! Awesome!
But... the ghost green fire is too immature, how can it withstand the devouring of the holy phoenix true fire? If you are not careful, it may be swallowed too much, and even the origin of the green fire may be injured.
The opportunity was rare, Tang Yan was tempted, but he was afraid that Qing Huo wouldn't be able to hold it.
