C26 Red Lotus(2)
"You're not bad at all, but it's a pity that you met me," Dung Tianzuo said arrogantly, and a red current of air rose from his body.
Chiang Wenn's attack on Dung Tianzuo's chest was stopped three inches from his chest.
"You! Hiss ~" Chiang Wenn was shocked to see this strange scene. Before he could react, he felt a burning pain on his left arm that was holding Dung Tianzuo's right hand.
Dung Tianzuo let out an evil smile as his right hand broke free from Chiang Wenn's grip and he grabbed Chiang Wenn's left arm. The red air current that rose from his body expanded and wrapped around Chiang Wenn's entire left arm.
From the way the air was twisted, the red air was frighteningly hot.
Chiang Wenn's left arm tried its best to break free from the strange red air current, but it was unable to break free from Dung Tianzuo's hand.
"Ah!" Chiang Wenn screamed in pain, and his left arm was burning with flames.
"I can't stand it anymore? It's not over yet." When Dung Tianzuo heard Chiang Wenn's shout, a disappointed expression appeared on his face.
Lee Zhuohua, who was watching the battle from below the arena, frowned when he saw the unexpected change in the arena. "Stellar Energy! Astral Realm?"
Lee Zhuohua had already been suspicious of Dung Tianzuo in the previous battle, but he never expected that he would see an aura that only an Astral Realm expert would have.
"No, he is still at the Body Forging Realm. Then this Gang Qi..." Lee Zhuohua could not understand why this Dung Tianzuo, who was clearly at the Body Forging Realm, would emit Gang Qi from his body.
At this moment, even the few people in the main audience could not calm down when they saw the change in Dung Tianzuo.
"The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus? It really is someone from that branch." Yuh Guangcheng stood up as soon as he saw the red aura around Dung Tianzuo's body.
"It seems to be true. It's just that I don't know what he came here for and I hope he doesn't have anything to do with Aunt Hongdenggui." Lian Nichang said as she looked at Dung Tianzuo on the arena.
Meanwhile, Chiang Peisheng and Duanzheng Shangxian, who were standing at the side, were also shocked. They had never thought that they would see the aura of the Astral Success Realm from a Body Forging cultivator.
"Old man Jiang, your grandson is in trouble." Duanzheng Sian said to Chiang Peisheng in a strange tone.
Chiang Peisheng turned a deaf ear to the words of Duanzheng Shangjun, and his gaze was fixed on the red stream of air that was rising from Dung Tianzuo's body. No one knew what he was thinking.
Seeing how Chiang Peisheng didn't care about Chiang Wenn at all, Duanzheng Shangjun coldly snorted, "Heh! Truly heartless."
Chiang Peisheng ignored him and turned to Yuh Guangcheng, asking, "City Lord Yu, what is this Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus?"
He stared at Dung Tianzuo, who was on the stage, and slowly thought about Chiang Peisheng's explanation.
"The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus is a unique kind of flame that is different from ordinary flames. It uses the will of the human heart as the fuel for its combustion. It is said that Aunt Hongdenggui had already cultivated this special kind of flame back then and had fused it into her own aura." Yuh Guangcheng continued to look at Dung Tianzuo as he spoke.
"Then, why would a Body Forging cultivator like Dung Tianzuo possess such a flame?" Chiang Peisheng continued to ask.
"That's because their cultivation methods are different from ours - they directly pass on their cultivation to the next generation. Thus, Dung Tianzuo is able to unleash the Red Lotus Air while only at the Body Forging Realm." Yuh Guangcheng explained the secrets of that bloodline.
"Seeing that Dung Tianzuo's Red Lotus Aura can only burn external things, but not Chiang Wenn's desires. He must be the successor that the man in the capital has recently found." Lian Nichang, who was standing at the side, spoke up at this moment.
At this point, Lian Nichang and Yuh Guangcheng's expressions changed slightly. Before, they were still fine when they were not sure which line Dung Tianzuo belonged to, but now that they were certain, they looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
They knew perfectly well what would happen when the next generation was found.
"It looks like the situation in the capital is also about to get chaotic." Yuh Guangcheng sighed and said, something that only he and Lian Nichang could understand.
In the drill ground.
Lee Zhuohua, who was watching the battle, saw what was going on on on the stage, and then he saw the red stream of air around Dung Tianzuo's body. He vaguely felt that it was familiar, and he searched through his memories about Gang Qi.
Lee Zhuohua had dabbled in all sorts of things in the boundless world. He had not left the sect for a long time, and the place he frequented the most was the Scripture Pavilion of the Heavenly Faction. The Scripture Pavilion was all-encompassing, and Lee Zhuohua felt that the airflow in front of him was related to a description he had seen in his memories.
That description was recorded in a book called The Wondrous Objects of Heaven and Earth. Lee Zhuohua had only briefly read it back then and could not remember the contents, so it was a little troublesome to recall.
After a while, Lee Zhuohua's eyes lit up as he recalled the description. He roughly understood what was going on with Dung Tianzuo's Gang Qis.
"The Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus? Then it's not strange that this Dung Tianzuo is only at the Body Forging Realm. After all, once someone finishes cultivating this kind of flame, there will be no other person in the world who can obtain it, unless..." Lee Zhuohua thought in his heart and the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile.
"Since there is someone in this world who can cultivate the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus, it seems like I have underestimated this place."
