Legend of the Great Sage

t?”

Ye Duanhai had done nothing so far.
In terms of battle prowess for direct confrontations, it was very likely for him to be the most powerful on the island as a great sword cultivator.
If he stepped in, then they could still put up a battle as three against three.

“Pavilion master Ye, we fire devourers keep a clear record of our friends and foes.
You can take your disciples and leave! However, it would be best if you reconsider his majesty’s invitation, otherwise the flames of Cloud Sail sect might reach the South Sea Sword pavilion in the future!”

Zhu Yan followed up quickly.
He had done this both because of the King of Southern Yue’s instructions, as well as his qualms about Ye Duanhai’s strength.
Their main objective for this trip was still to kill Gong Yuan.
If a great sword cultivator joined the enemy’s side, then it would add many additional factors to the equation, so they were better off just letting him go.

“You’re more than welcome to come.”

Cold light flashed through Ye Duanhai’s eyes.
He knew the fire devourers had intentionally brought up the King of Southern Yue to draw away the hatred.
Originally, he had no plans on getting involved, or he would have taken action long ago.
Right when he was about to leave with his disciples, he glanced at Li Qingshan.
He had promised to fight for Li Qingshan once, and right now seemed like when Li Qingshan needed help the most.

If Li Qingshan spoke up, then he would truly face a tough predicament.
He had some confidence in slipping away from a grand battle against the fire devourers, but the disciples of his sect would probably all die here.
He secretly made up his mind to not bring so many people with him again in the future.
As a swordsman, he was accustomed to moving around alone and being untethered.

“Pavilion master Ye, there’s no need to look at me.
You should go! It’s just three measly fire devourers.
That’s nowhere enough to end my life.
You can take Yu Wufeng with you too.
Go back and focus on cultivating.
Once you’ve made up your mind about facing the heavenly tribulation, I’ll release you from the blood oath.”

Li Qingshan waved his hand in an unconcerned manner.
He could not waste the opportunity he had earned after so much difficulty here.

“Fellow Li, aren’t you cutting off your own path of escape if you do that?” Ji Changfeng panicked.
Gong Yuan ground her teeth in resentment towards Li Qingshan too.
With that, the situation had become a little more dangerous.
He had virtually snuffed out their last ray of hope.

“You don’t have to look at me.
He has no grievances with the fire devourers.
He never planned on fighting anyway.
Since when could you have to beg others for a way out? The only way out is to fight!” Li Qingshan said.

“What a King of Savages.
I, Ye Duanhai, won’t forget that!”

Ye Duanhai clasped his hands at Li Qingshan and actually showed a hint of respect.
He gathered his disciples, created a sword formation, and rushed out of Main-mast mountain.
Sure enough, the fire devourers produced a path for him too.
The sea of fire split apart, allowing Ye Duanhai to approach the ocean.
He vanished in the blink of an eye.

“Hold on, we don’t have any grievances with fire devourers either.
Don’t fire devourers keep a clear record of their friends and foes? Please give us a way out too!” “Yeah, yeah, I’ve always hated merpeople.
I have absolutely no intentions of opposing Fire Melt mountain.”

The cultivators of the South sea all cried out, solemnly swearing that they would sever their connection with the Cloud Sail sect and the merpeople of the South sea.

Zhu Fen said, “Hah, do you know what fire devourers hate the most? Weaklings! Because you’re too weak, you all must die today!”

The cultivators of the South sea erupted with curses, but that only made Zhu Fen roar with laughter.
He said to Zhu Yan, “King Yan, it’s about time.
It’s time for you to take action!”

“I’ve already run out of patience a long time ago!”

Zhu Yan lifted the Fire Tablet of Man high into the air, and Zhu Fen and Zhu Zai’s powers gathered on him.
The Fire Tablet of Man surged with flames.

“The Blazes of Man, Advent of the Fire God! All of you can go and die!”

The great flames that ravaged Main-mast mountain suddenly began to move, gathering together.

With a great cry, a fire dragon whistled out from the sea of fire, complete with well-defined teeth, scales, and claws.
It slammed its tail against the formation, making it totter and flicker.

“Is that all?” Li Qingshan raised an eyebrow.
Compared to the flames of heaven and the flames of earth, the flames of man were just a little too weak.
The fire dragon did possess the strength of a regular Daemon King, but that was all.
So much for telling them all to go and die!

Gong Yuan suddenly communicated with Li Qingshan in a hurry.
“If you can assist me with escaping from here, I’ll lend the Heart of the Abyss to you for a year!”

“Ten years!”

“Three years!”

“Five years!”

“Deal!”

As if Gong Yuan had something major weighing on her mind, she agreed to Li Qingshan’s request very quickly.
During their short conversation, there was another dragon’s cry, and a pair of dragons swam through the air together.
Gong Yuan’s expression became sterner and sterner.
Suddenly, the backs of the two dragons that flew together surged, and two balls of flames condensed into a pair of giant feet on the dragons.
Gazing up along the feet, a colossal figure shimmered in the sea of fire, gradually taking shape.

A giant god of fire that stood on the pair of dragons.
A well-defined body stood like a mountain, radiating with a primitive, desolate aura.
Its face twisted in a blur within the flames, but every single cultivator experienced an unprecedented pressure.
They were shocked.

Li Qingshan frowned.
The sensation basically felt no different from facing the Dragon King of Ink Sea, and it was much more unpredictable compared to the Dragon King of Ink Sea.
The giant god of fire that gave off a violent aura definitely possessed much greater offensive ability.
Once it struck, it would definitely be earth-shattering.
No one present could take it on in a direct confrontation.

The three Fire Devouring Kings in the air were all emotional.
They held their Divine Fire tablets with both hands and bowed towards the giant god of fire from afar.

“Incinerate everything, great god Zhurong!”

Roar! The giant god of fire produced a furious howl at everyone on the mountain, like the eruption of a hundred volcanoes.
Waves of heat surged over, and the defensive formation tottered on the brink of collapse.
