Chapter 1057: Chapter 718: Black Mist and Flames (Part 2)
Therefore, even if Xiang Beifei uses Yin-Yang source energy to imitate the aura of the Dayan Jinshou Formation and make himself a part of it, it is useless.
As long as he passes through, he will inevitably be attacked.
However, Dayan Jinshou is a formation, and Xiang Beifei plans to try whether he can run through it by masking perception with the Candle Dragon Eye.
He conjured up a straw figure, manipulated it, and immediately tossed it out of the deep pit after night fell.
Although the Candle Dragon Eye is very powerful, it also has some drawbacks. It not only shields the enemy’s perception, but Xiang Beifei’s own perception is also blocked. Once it turns dark, he loses contact with the straw figure.
If he were to experiment on himself, Xiang Beifei would not be sure if he could trigger the formation, and if he couldn’t block it, rushing out would be fraught with danger.
Whoosh!
About five breaths later, he retrieved the Candle Dragon Eye, and the sky immediately returned to normal. However, when he tried to perceive again, he found that the straw figure had already been destroyed at some point.
The Candle Dragon Eye surprisingly cannot shield against Dayan Jinshou!
This formation is truly bizarre, worthy of being a backup plan set by a master of the Ancestral Dao Realm. Although Xiang Beifei’s Candle Dragon Eye is impressive, it seems unable to contend with the formation here.
"It should be a problem with the black mist. When we move, it disrupts the black mist and then triggers Dayan Jinshou."
Xiang Beifei analyzed and came to this conclusion.
Since they entered the Rushou relic, the black mist has been everywhere, and it is precisely this black mist that obstructs their sight. Every move they make is actually under the surveillance of the black mist.
Space cannot be traversed directly here, so they can only rely on their bodies to advance. As soon as they move, the black mist can detect it.
Moreover, this black mist is very keen. Even when Xifeng transforms himself into an intangible and immaterial sword beam, he cannot evade the black mist, which can even sense divine souls.
But he quickly thought of a point!
The Dao Palace controls earth, and Rushou controls metal.
In the cycle of the five elements, if so, can we use the property of mutual restraint to deal with this black mist magnetic sand?
Fire overcomes metal!
"Diviner, the Rushou Tribe from ten thousand years ago must have been restrained, right? Was there a flame or something that could restrain metal?" Xiang Beifei asked.
The Diviner pondered for a while and said, "It’s possible, but the Rushou relic uses extremely strong metals. Ordinary flames won’t work; we need special flames, otherwise, the Fire Dao Race would have come in already."
The "Mistfire" sold by the Fire Dao Race cultivators can barely improve vision in the black mist, which means the Mistfire can indeed slightly restrain the black mist here.
Of course, the restraining effect is presumably not significant. The firepower cultivated by the Fire Dao Race is also layered in strength. Currently, their strongest flame is not sufficient to deal with the Rushou relic; otherwise, the Fire Dao Race wouldn’t stand aside.
"What do you mean by special flame?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"It’s hard to say. Ten thousand years ago, the Zhurong Tribe did restrain the Rushou Tribe. It is rumored they had a kind of source fire, the original fire, similar to breath soil. If we had source fire, things would be much easier."
"What exactly is source fire?"
"Source fire exists only in legend. People of the Fire Dao Race spend their lifetimes pursuing elevating their fire path to the level of source fire. Normally, if someone from the Fire Dao Race steps into the Ancestral Dao Realm, it means their cultivated flame Dao embryo has reached the level of source fire!"
The Diviner, well-versed and knowledgeable, knew a lot.
"Does the Fire Dao Race lack masters of the Ancestral Dao Realm?" Xiang Beifei asked.
The Diviner shook his head, "No, their strongest are at the Inquiry Dao Realm. It’s said they have coveted this place in the past, having entered the Rushou relic many times, but at a great cost, and now they’ve given up."
To cultivate the flame Dao embryo to the extreme is source fire, but unfortunately, the Fire Dao Race’s power is not strong enough.
However—
Xiang Beifei suddenly thought that he also had a special flame.
Burning Yang and Burning Yin!
Can these compare with source fire?
He extended his palm, and a pale flame immediately lit up in his palm!
Burning Yang!
"Your flame..." the Diviner looked at the white flame, quite amazed, and said, "Is it useful?"
"I don’t know."
Xiang Beifei threw out a straw figure, and the Burning Yang in his hand spread and fell on the straw figure, surging toward the outside black mist.
Fizz!
The black mist became unstable when it encountered Burning Yang, and there was a powerful force within the black mist that constantly resisted Burning Yang.
Xiang Beifei’s Burning Yang is not invincible either. As long as someone is stronger than him, they can completely resist his Burning Yang.
However, he quickly discovered that when his burning Yang flames covered the scarecrow, this time it didn’t trigger the attack from Dayan Jinshou!
Effective!
Although the burning Yang couldn’t burn away the black mist, it did make the black mist temporarily lose its sense of direction, unable to determine whether to attack or not!
He had the scarecrow move a few more steps with the flames, but when the scarecrow moved quickly, the burning Yang seemed unable to keep up, and the black mist appeared to react.
Whoosh!
With a loud noise, suddenly a massive footprint appeared in the sky once again!
Boom!
The giant foot hit the ground, and the scarecrow was once again crushed to the point of having no remains.
Xiang Beifei made several attempts and finally confirmed the situation. His burning Yang could suppress the black mist, but not significantly. Especially when moving with the burning Yang. If the movement speed was slow, it would only barely interfere with the black mist. Once the speed increased, it couldn’t interfere with the black mist at all.
"Are you a member of the Fire Race?" the Diviner asked in astonishment.
"No."
"Then how can you use fire?"
"Borrowed, let’s go."
Xiang Beifei did not explain in detail. With a pulse of Spiritual Power, his entire body was covered with white flames. He then swung his hand and the burning Yang also landed on the Diviner.
The Diviner was quite nervous because he could clearly perceive the terrifying nature of the burning Yang flames, letting them burn on himself was definitely no good thing.
"Your flames are terrifying, I could be burned away with just a small negligence," the Diviner couldn’t help but say.
"You should be worried about Dayan Jinshou outside, not my flames."
Xiang Beifei still had a good grasp of controlling the burning Yang without making any mistakes.
However, the burning Yang was currently burning his Spiritual Power, so he had to use it carefully.
They cautiously jumped out of the footprint pit and landed in the black iron ruins. After taking a couple of steps, there was no appearance of the terrifying giant footprint, and the two let out a sigh of relief.
"Don’t walk too fast, follow my steps. If you speed up, there will be a problem," Xiang Beifei reminded.
The Diviner was naturally aware of this point and wouldn’t dare to joke about it since entering here relied entirely on Xiang Beifei.
Xiang Beifei headed towards the deepest part of the Rushou ruins, but he still walked along the safe route divined by the Diviner, which was the most reliable way. Because in case they accidentally triggered Dayan Jinshou, at least they could quickly head to the safe spot to remedy it.
Rushou City was vast, Xiang Beifei and the others walked extremely slowly, almost like they were strolling. However, after walking for a quarter of an hour without triggering Dayan Jinshou, they understood that their method was correct.
"Can you divine the most dangerous locations?" Xiang Beifei asked.
The most dangerous spots would surely be the center of Rushou City, so they just needed to get there.
The Diviner said, "I need to rest and divine safely in that broken iron tower ahead."
That place was a safe spot, and Xiang Beifei did not object.
The iron tower, based on its base, was originally estimated to be seven or eight hundred meters high but had been blasted into several sections, now only about a dozen meters remained. They climbed up slowly, and the Diviner began to divine the most dangerous place, while Xiang Beifei looked around casually.
But at this moment, a rumbling sound suddenly came from several hundred meters away, and thick lightning thundered down like rain, violently exploding in that area.
"Who triggered Dayan Jinshou? Was it the Demon Race?"
Xiang Beifei frowned.
Just now, Demon Race members also came in, but it was unclear where they went, as they went in a different direction.
He searched with his eyes and suddenly saw, in a piece of ruins, a person quickly rush through the sea of lightning and disappear at the corner.
But Xiang Beifei suddenly froze!
"What’s going on?"
He was shocked!
"What’s wrong with you?" the Diviner asked in confusion.
Xiang Beifei didn’t speak, just stared intently at that place, trying to search for the figure that rushed out of the sea of lightning, but the person seemed to have disappeared.
"How could this happen? What exactly is going on?"
Xiang Beifei’s heart was tumultuous!
The figure that just ran past, the system interface above their head, was actually a snowflake!
