Chapter 72: Fire Receiving Art

Fire Receiving Art?

What is this thing?

Pei Ling was stunned for a moment before he quickly realized that this must be a special method for absorbing immortal fire.

The problem was that when he showed Zheng Jingshan his ‘talent in alchemy’ back then, he had relied solely on the system’s one-click management. This Senior Brother Zheng had most likely seen him controlling the immortal fire during the process of refining pills and thought that he must have mastered the Fire Receiving Art, so he did not even mention it to him.

This is going to be troublesome!

Ouyang Xianxing frowned slightly. This was a mission arranged by the Double Mulberry Faction leader. She thought that she only needed to be a loyal fighter, and the most troublesome situation she could encounter would be pursuing a narrow gain while neglecting a greater danger. She did not expect Pei Ling to pose such a big problem even before the Clear River Faction arrived.

“… I’ll teach you the Fire Receiving Art now. Learn it quickly!” After thinking quickly, Ouyang Xianxing took a deep breath and said in a low voice.

Pei Ling’s cultivation level was low to begin with. Without the Fire Receiving Art, it was impossible to refine the Cold Marrow Fire.

“Senior Sister.” Hearing this, the corners of Xue Ying’s mouth twitched as he revealed a mocking expression. Fang Ji hurriedly advised, “Although the Fire Receiving Art is not some profound spell, how can a mere Qi Refinement realm cultivator learn it without taking at least half a month? Moreover, the Cold Marrow Fire is an eighth-grade immortal fire, and it’s one of the best among eighth-grade immortal fires. With his cultivation level, even if he manages to learn it, if he’s not familiar with it, he will suffer a backlash if he makes a mistake.

At that time, not only will we waste the Cold Marrow Fire, but we won’t be able to complete the Branch Master’s mission. We’ll lose both our lives and our wealth!”

He could not help thinking of retreating. “Why don’t we bring him back first and report to the Branch Master? Then…”

“No, no!” However, Ouyang Xianxing rejected him immediately and said firmly, “So be it. The Branch Master did not specify our time for this mission. The Gu Abyss is vast, and outsiders might not have a chance if they don’t know the location of the Cold Marrow Fire! Why should we turn around and let the Branch Master’s previous efforts go down the drain?

As for Junior Brother Pei’s cultivation level…

When he starts refining the Cold Marrow Fire, you will protect him.

He’s only a Qi Refinement realm cultivator. With your Foundation Establishment realm cultivation, treating him shouldn’t be difficult!”

Fang Ji was anxious. This was indeed not difficult for him.

In fact, the reason why Zheng Jingshan asked the three of them to be in charge of this mission was that he wanted Ouyang Xianxing, who had the highest cultivation level, to lead the team and ensure their safety during the journey. Xue Ying was in charge of setting up the array to prevent the immortal fire from escaping and to support everyone. As for Fang Ji, who cultivated both medicine and poison, he was mainly there to protect Junior Brother Pei during the process of refining the immortal fire.

However, Double Mulberry Faction had been on a decline in recent years, and their resources were decreasing year by year.

This time, Zheng Jingshan suddenly risked everything to obtain the mission of the Cold Marrow Fire, but he did not give it to Fang Ji and the other junior brothers and sisters who he usually relied on. Instead, it benefited an outer sect disciple who had just entered the sect! How could Fang Ji and the others accept this?

If not for the Branch Master’s prestige, Fang Ji and Xue Ying would not even want to participate in this mission.

Therefore, after leaving Kulan Courtyard, even with Ouyang Xianxing holding the fort, Fang Ji gave Pei Ling a hard time.

At this moment, seeing that Pei Ling did not even know the Fire Receiving Art, he thought that it presented an excuse to force Pei Ling to return and Ouyang Xianxing to take a step back. He would suggest that he or Xue Ying absorb the Cold Marrow Fire.

Unexpectedly, Ouyang Xianxing would take the risk of staying here for half a month for Pei Ling!

Fang Ji’s heart was filled with jealousy and hatred towards Pei Ling. His face was contorted before he forced a smile and said, “Senior Sister, you think too highly of me. Junior Brother Pei’s cultivation level is too low, and I’m not very confident.”

“Just do your best,” Ouyang Xianxing said coldly as she turned to Pei Ling. “Alright, don’t waste time. I’ll recite the chant for the Fire Receiving Art to you now. If you have anything you don’t understand, ask me immediately. It’s just that I didn’t spend much effort on alchemy back then, so I might not be able to explain it to you. What I can’t explain, you’ll have to comprehend yourself.”

Without waiting for Pei Ling to say anything, she opened her mouth and recited a chant that was about a few hundred words long.

Pei Ling only understood the general meaning of the first two sentences. As for the latter part, he did not even know the words, just like the Blood Spiraling Escape Technique from before.

Fortunately, he had the system!

Ouyang Xianxing had just begun to recite when the system went online. “Ding Dong! Detected that the outside world is imparting spells. Recording…”

As soon as this senior sister finished memorizing the incantation, the system prompted, “The spell has been recorded. Host, please name it.”

“It’s called the [Fire Receiving Art.]” It was rare for Pei Ling to find the system so pleasing. His hand trembled and he almost gave it a five-star rating. Then he reacted quickly, clicking on the four-star rating at the critical moment.

Just as he was thinking about how to tell Ouyang Xianxing that he had learned the Fire Receiving Art, tremors could be felt in the surroundings with the Cold Marrow Fire at the center!

The trapping array was finally set up.

Ouyang Xianxing extended her hand to Xue Ying. “Give me the core array flag.”

Xue Ying did not dare to say anything. He glanced at Pei Ling resentfully and handed a small black flag to Ouyang Xianxing. He swallowed his anger and said, “Senior Sister, I really didn’t…”

“We’ll discuss this matter in front of the Branch Master when we return to the Kulan Courtyard,” Ouyang Xianxing said coldly. “Alright, hand over your intrinsic array disc to me.”

“… Senior Sister?!” Xue Ying’s pupils constricted as he blurted out, “You’re actually so wary of me because of this kid’s words?”

Fang Ji, who was at the side, wanted to say something but hesitated. Although he did not dare to say anything when he saw Ouyang Xianxing’s cold expression, he looked at Pei Ling with an increasingly unfriendly gaze.

Ouyang Xianxing could not be bothered to waste her breath. “You dare to disobey me?”

As he spoke, a Bone Flower slowly appeared behind Xue Ying. Thereupon countless white bone chains that pierced through his body wiggled, causing his face to turn pale.

“… Yes.” Xue Ying took a deep breath and held back his anger. He took out his intrinsic array disc and held it with both hands. He lowered his head and said, “How would I dare to disobey Senior Sister’s orders?”

Ouyang Xianxing took the array disc and checked it carefully. After confirming that there was no problem, she waved her hand.

Before Xue Ying could react, the originally translucent Bone Flower behind him suddenly changed and expanded. Then a huge mouth filled with sharp teeth appeared and swallowed him!

Fang Ji was shocked. “Senior Sister, Senior Brother Xue has already…”

Ouyang Xianxing ignored him and formed hand seals with both hands. After the Bone Flower swallowed Xue Ying, it transformed quickly. In just two breaths, it turned into a White Bone Armor that wrapped around Xue Ying tightly. He could not even move his fingertips, and only his nose was exposed.

“Senior Sister, you!!” Xue Ying was shocked at first, then furious. “We’ve known each other for many years, you…”

Before he could finish, a few chains suddenly appeared from the White Bone Armor. With a clanging sound, they completely blocked his tongue.

This should be fine, Ouyang Xianxing thought to herself. Then she kicked him out of the array and instructed Fang Ji to protect Pei Ling in case anything happened. She then strode towards the immortal fire.
