Chapter 257 Who is willing to go
The two sides officially merged into one group. They did not stay here and did not need to choose any direction. Anyway, they did not know where the sacred fire was, so they just picked a direction and went straight ahead.
As far as the area in front of them is concerned, there is nothing much to explore. Tens of thousands of people have just dispersed from this area. The divine fire would have been discovered long ago, so it is not their turn.
But they did not let it go easily, and people spread out to comb along the way.
The two merged teams didn't get along very well, but there were no conflicts either.
The reason why they are not harmonious is that they are strangers to each other. The reason why there are no conflicts is that the number of demons accounts for the majority of the Siding Sect, and Shi Chun's side can also suppress the Mingshan Sect. The biggest conflict has been suppressed for the time being, and Feng Yaoyang, who is "not as skilled as others", can no longer be arrogant.
Xu Anchang and Shi Chun naturally fell to the back of the team and murmured.
When the two met alone, Shi Chun immediately paid attention to the details, "What's going on? Why are you so late?"
"Alas." Xu An sighed, "What else could it be? It's none other than Senior Brother Feng. It's already good enough that I can convince him to come over for a meeting. By the way, is the Sect Master over there really as powerful as you say?"
Shi Chun: "What do you mean by powerful? Can you say that someone is powerful? He is an elite of the Bailian Sect. I don't understand refining weapons, but I know that he has a high talent for refining weapons."
Xu Anchang was puzzled and asked, "How could the Bailian Sect be willing to expel such an elite disciple with such high talent?"
Shi Chun pointed at the people in front of him, "Those eleven in front belong to eleven sects. Which one of them is not an elite disciple of their own sect? At the beginning, they were all leading figures representing their respective sects to attend the conference. Later, none of them were left. They were all expelled from their sects. How could Tong Mingshan be an exception? The situation is special and the situation is forced. There is nothing we can do."
Xu Anchang teased, "I've heard a little about it. It seems like you're the one who caused all of this. You're really good. You tricked them into becoming accomplices of the evildoers during the Tianyu Liuxing Convention, and now you still have the nerve to drag them into your group."
Shi Chun: "I later heard that they were not only expelled from the sect, but also thrown into jail because of me. I couldn't bear it, so I bailed them out."
Xu Anchang couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "What a pity, such a talented disciple, if I were Bailian Sect, I would definitely feel sorry for him."
Shi Chun: "Who said it wasn't? To be honest, before he came here, the head of Bailian Sect and a group of high-ranking officials found him and pulled him back to the sect, hoping that he could use the people of Mingshan Sect to help Bailian Sect in the Divine Fire Region."
Xu An smiled and said, "That's normal. If I were from Bailian Sect, I would do the same. He didn't agree?"
Shi Chun: "He definitely didn't agree. If he agreed, would he still be with us? Do you know how he rejected the leader of Bailian Sect? He said, I am the leader of Mingshan Sect, how can a leader betray his sect!"
Xu Anchang was amazed as he listened, and his eyes were filled with admiration as he looked towards Tong Mingshan in front of him.
Shi Chun: "Listen, a good horse never turns back. Talented people are so arrogant. It's not just your Feng Yaoyang. Our sect master is the same. It's nothing to be arrogant because of his talent. He is even the sect master of his sect. He is much more arrogant than your senior brother Feng. Of course, his talent in refining equipment must be higher than your senior brother."
Xu Anchang nodded in agreement. "That's right. People with real talent are like this. They don't like empty talk. Let me confirm, is it you who has the final say in Mingshan Sect, or is it him?"
Shi Chun: "Don't worry about this. It's useless for him to say anything. As long as we don't let them know our background, they will still listen to me."
Xu Anchang felt relieved after hearing this. "That's good. Let's talk business. Finding the sacred fire is our main goal. If you have any good plans, you might as well speak up. Before I came, the higher-ups told me to listen to your opinions. After meeting you, I understand. I think the higher-ups should have explained it to you when they asked you to come, right?"
Shi Chun: "It is true that you asked me to assist you. But I know almost nothing about this place, and I don't even know the current situation. If you ask me to give you some advice, I have nothing to offer. By the way, you are from a weapon refining sect, so you should have more experience than me. Do you have any experience to share with me about finding the divine fire?"
Xu Anchang: "What experience do we have? The Four Ding Sect was founded only about 200 years ago, and no one in the sect has ever entered the Divine Fire Region. We are the first batch. And the experience of each sect in entering the Divine Fire Region is also kept to themselves and never leaked.
The higher-ups knew we had no experience in this area, so they did try to come up with a plan, but the idea was too hasty and the time was too short to achieve anything, so they didn't really get anything. They only got one sentence, which they said might be a relatively useful experience."
Shi Chun was suspicious, "Maybe? Isn't this a bit of a joke? Which sentence?"
Xu Anchang: "Seek in the ordinary, take in the extreme. The ordinary is the ordinary, the middle is the ordinary, the extreme is the extreme, the extreme is the extreme. Seek in the ordinary, take in the extreme, just these six words."
"Seek in the ordinary, and take in the extreme?" Shi Chun muttered to himself, then asked, "What does that mean?"
Xu Anchang: "I also want to know what it means, but the higher-ups don't know either. When I asked them where it came from, they refused to tell me, so I didn't ask any more."
After pondering it over and over again, Shi Chun said, "Extremely high, Brother Xu just mentioned the word 'extreme'. Considering the environment here, could it mean extreme environment?"
Xu Anchang hesitated and said, "I have thought about this too, but there is another sentence above, 'seek peace in peace'. What does it mean? I can't figure it out!"
Shi Chun asked back: "When will you figure it out?"
"Uh..." Xu Anchang was stunned, "How would I know that?"
Shi Chun: "Put aside the things you can't figure out. Don't let them trip you up. Let's first verify whether the second half of the sentence is what we think it is."
Xu Anchang: "You mean, try an extreme environment first?"
Shi Chun: "Does the entrance, that vast expanse of molten lava, count?"
Xu Anchang pondered, "It should be considered, but so many people have walked around there and didn't find it. If I go again..."
Shi Chun: "Brother Xu, this kind of account doesn't seem to be settled in this way. I think that if there is a sacred fire in that place, there is no need to look for it. If there is no discovery, it is worth looking for it. The problem is that given the situation at the time, it seems that no one has seriously looked for it there. Of course, whether anyone has looked for it afterwards is unknown." Whether it is reasonable or not is just a matter of words. In fact, he also felt that there was no need to go there again, but some things had to be resolved as soon as possible, so he had to go nearby.
Seeing that he was determined to insist, Xu Anchang, who was a little hesitant, still felt that he should respect his opinion for once. What if he really had a brilliant idea? Besides, he was told to listen more. It seemed inappropriate to reject his suggestion for the first time.
"Okay." He nodded and agreed.
What remains is for the two of them to convince their own people. Shi Chun is easy to do, just a matter of giving him a call.
As soon as Xu Anchang landed in front of Feng Yaoyang, he was immediately mocked by Feng Yaoyang, "Junior Brother Xu, you are very close to Shi Chun, be careful not to shoot yourself in the foot."
Xu Anchang didn't argue with him, but whispered: "Brother Feng, I got some important information about finding the divine fire from Mingshan Sect."
After hearing this, Feng Yaoyang immediately swallowed back what he had just said and asked with great seriousness, "What important news?"
Xu Anchang said: "The Bailian Sect has passed through the Divine Fire Region before and summed up the experience in six words, which is 'seek in the ordinary and obtain in the extreme'..."
After being scolded by him, Feng Yaoyang immediately issued an order, ordering the Four Ding Sect to assemble.
The two teams gathered together again. This time there was no need to search along the way. They directly took out the magic weapon Wind Scale and led their men back to the entrance.
Soon, the group returned to the lava area at the entrance and felt the scorching heat before they landed.
Everywhere you look, you can see either bubbling red molten lava or dry, charred land masses, like islands of varying sizes in a lake. In some places, black, white or grey smoke is emitting from time to time.
The group had no other choice but to start searching.
Chu Jingtang, who was going up and down to check the land of Lava Island, sighed from time to time. Lao Changtai, who was in the same group with him, knew what he was thinking and felt that this was meaningless, a waste of time and suffering.
"That's OK. It will only take forty-nine days and the gang will be over. I heard that once you enter the Divine Fire Domain, it's quite safe as long as you don't fight or compete." Lao Changtai took the opportunity to persuade him.
Chu Jingtang smiled bitterly, “It seems that you still don’t know our big boss very well. If it’s really a gangster, just let it go and I won’t say anything.
You wait and see, he came to this place and cooperated with others so quickly, it would be strange if he was a gangster. I still remember clearly what happened on the Moon Sea. Every time they formed a gang, there would be trouble. I feel that something bad is not far away. "
Lao Changtai was deep in thought when suddenly a figure flew in front of them. It was Wu Jinliang, who pointed to a large island in the distance and called out to them, "Meet over there, the boss is waiting for you. Alas, I can't use the mother-child talisman, what a hassle."
Wu Jinliang, who had lived a good life, was a little uncomfortable returning to the life in exile. After picking up the ice sheep and taking a deep breath, he flew away with the big gourd on his back and continued to greet other people.
"His gourd seemed to have lost its weight and became lighter again."
Chu Jingtang stared at the departing figure and muttered something, then went to the designated location with Lao Changtai.
When they saw Shi Chun, they asked what was the matter, but Shi Chun didn't say anything and asked them to wait.
It didn't take too long before the thirteen people from Mingshan Sect gathered together one after another.
Shi Chun glanced at everyone and said bluntly: "Everyone, I want to take Feng Yaoyang's life. Who is willing to take the risk for me?"
When these words were spoken, except for Wu Jinliang who was laughing, the other eleven people were all startled and looked at each other.
Especially Lao Changtai, the look he gave Chu Jingtang was very meaningful. The words he just said were still hot, and things were really getting hot.
Shen Moming asked, "Boss, why is this happening? Is it because of his rude words?"
Shi Chun: "It's one of the reasons, not the main reason. Don't go into the details. I have my own plans, and you will know them later."
Chu Jingtang was really impressed by him. What he feared came true. He sighed and said, "Boss, it's not that we value our lives, but we can't do this. I asked, Feng Yaoyang is at the high martial arts level. A high level is a true high martial arts. He has reached the level of injuring people from a distance. We can't compare. They may have magic weapons on them."
Lao Changtai also said: "That's right, we can't kill him even if we want to. We are no match for Mulan Qingqing. In terms of strength, only you, the big boss, can do it."
What this means is, may I ask if the boss is sure of killing Feng Yaoyang?
Shi Chun: "I can't do anything about this. I need to be there to clean up the mess. Wu Jin is too obvious and it won't work. Zhu Xiangxin is a woman and it won't work either. You are the only ones left. Who is willing to take the risk?"
As everyone looked at each other, Tong Mingshan said, "Since the big boss insists on doing this, I am the sect leader after all, so let me do it."
He felt helpless and didn't want to take any risks. Which sect would let the sect leader take the lead and take risks when encountering problems? But he was found by the boss in advance and was forced to take the lead in this scene.
Shi Chun immediately clapped his hands and praised, "As expected of you, you are the leader of Mingshan Sect! You deserve it!"
