--- Chapter 212 ---
Entering the Burning Fla Valley, Baek Ain and his wives could feel the extre heat from the surroundings. However, they also felt sothing was weird about the valley's atmosphere.
"This... Did sothing happen to the Burning Fla Valley?" Baek Ain asked straightforwardly.
Ancestor Huo Yun sighed and replied, "Well, yes."
"It's quite an embarrassing event. A week ago, soone seduced my Tang Clan's little girl and stole our Heavenly Fla, the Nine Dragons Lightning Fla..."
"Aih, now my Tang Clan's little girl is depressed and locked herself in the bedroom."
"That bastard nad Yan Xiao. Just wait until I heal my old wounds...."
"I will chase that bastard to the end of the world and skin him alive!"
[Hmm, Yan Xiao] Alicia was putting puzzle pieces together.
[Host, this Yan Xiao fellow...]
Baek Ain laughed wryly inside, 'Yeah, there is no mistake. It is definitely Xiao Yan.'
'Aih, this guy always left behind a random ss for . No wonder he had the Nine Dragons Lightning Fla and Wind and Thunder Fury Fla beside the Chilling Bone Fla.'
[He stole one and got another by chance]
[Dayum, as expected of a Protagonist]
[So, will you return the Nine Dragons Lightning Fla to the Burning Fla Valley?] Alicia curiously asked.
'Nah.' Baek Ain returned casually.
Although it sucked for the Burning Fla Valley to lose such a precious Heavenly Fla, Baek Ain got the Nine Dragon Lightning Fla fair and square by killing Xiao Yan.
Why would he return it? Nine Dragon Lightning Fla is on a better hand now.
Still, Baek Ain also decided to help them a little. Having an extra faction under his control doesn't sound bad.
Yeah, a 'small' compensation for their loss.
[Ding! You have discovered Burning Fla Valley's Ancestral Gate! Do you want to Sign In?]
A system notification appeared before Baek Ain's eyes.
Baek Ain furrowed his brows slightly before rejecting it. There is a more valuable place to Sign In inside the Burning Fla Way, and he doesn't want it on a re entrance gate.
His daily Sign-In is precious, okay.
When Ancestral Huo Yun escorted them deeper into the Burning Fla Valley, Baek Ain saw a glimpse of the ancient furnace. It was a gigantic, bronze-colored furnace similar to the one he used to refine the 10th Tier Pill at the Yao Clan.
Yet that furnace has many holes and cracks all over.
"That furnace..." Baek Ain asked Ancestor Huo Yun.
Ancestor Huo Yun nodded and explained, "Yes, that's Heaven Subduing Bronze Furnace, and we used it to contain the Nine Dragon Lightning Fla."
"Countless experts, including , have left behind marks on the Ancient Furnace and used our Secret Art so no one could access the Nine Dragons Lightning Fla beside us."
"After all, that Heavenly Fla is akin to my Burning Fla Valley's lifeline because we use it for basically everything from heating a fertile land to crafting powerful artifacts." Ancestor Huo Yun reminisced about the good old days.
"Yet that bastard nad Yan Xiao tempered the mark by modifying our Secret Art and destroyed the Ancient Furnace to get our lifeline..." He cursed shortly after.
Baek Ain rubbed his chin and said, "Elder, maybe I can help you with the Ancient Furnace and the Heavenly Fla."
"Are you going to give us your Essence Fla?" Ancestor Huo Yun returned while sizing Baek Ain up.
"Obviously, no..." Baek Ain was speechless. He only used Golden Crow's Fla for healing Ancestor Huo Yun, and this shaless old guy already dread of having it.
"Oh..." Ancestor Huo Yun was disappointed. He looks like a child tricked by his parents on Christmas morning.
"..." Baek Ain.
"Pfft, hehehe~!" Yi Xian and others giggled at this.
"You reap what you sow."
Baek Ain facepald and continued, "Even though I couldn't give you my Essence Fla, I can give you a burning seed of another Essence Fla that wasn't low in quality. Your Burning Fla Valley can nurture it and recover your loss."
"And this Essence Fla has an earth attribute, which is firr and better to control than Nine Dragon Lightning Fla."
"Here, take a look." Baek Ain told Gno to create a weaker copy of itself.
A jade crystal fla burst out of Baek Ain's palm and stunned Ancestor Huo Yun.
"This fla, it is close to becoming Heavenly Fla!" Ancestor Huo Yun's eyes lit up in excitent. "And you actually didn't lie when saying it has earth attributes."
"I can feel the richness of the earth elent from it."
"Still, I'm afraid Burning Fla Valley doesn't have treasure to exchange with sothing this precious..." He hesitated.
Baek Ain smiled, "Don't be too discouraged, Elder. Even though I'm not interested in Burning Fla Valley's treasure, I heard you have a unique Dou Technique called the Skyfire Three Mysterious Changes."
Ancestor Huo Yun's expression changed as he looked at Baek Ain with a weak smile.
"I see... So that was your goal from the very beginning." He stroked his beard.
"Alright, Burning Fla Valley is at its lowest point right now. I can give you Skyfire Three Mysterious Changes in return for this Essence Fla's seed."
"But you also ntioned that you can do sothing with the Ancient Furnace earlier. I assud you could help us fix it?"
"That would be correct." Baek Ain chuckled. "I dabbled a little in the Ancient Refining Technique."
"A-Ancient Refining Technique..." Ancestor Huo Yun was shocked again.
"You're going to give a heart attack at this point."
"Just who are you to have this many secrets?"
"I'm just a lone man who enjoys learning many things." Baek Ain righteously responded.
"Very well... On top of Essense Fla's seed, I also want you to help us fix the Ancient Furnace." Ancestor Huo Yun thoughtfully murmured.
"That doesn't include healing my old wounds..."
"Aih, we barely have enough to pay you back."
He cunningly glanced at Baek Ain's won and cleared his throat, "Hey, what do you think of marrying my Tang Clan's little girl? Just to let you know, Tang Huo'er is the most beautiful young lady in the Burning Fla Valley, and you wouldn't regret having her as your wife."
'Old man, you're selling your own descendant now! Have a little conscience!' Baek Ain's mouth twitched.
Even Baek Ain's won were 'literally' taken aback by Ancestor Huo Yun's tactic.
[Sheesh, this Daoist is dedicated] Alicia comnted.
Baek Ain waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about that first. Can you show the area in the Burning Fla Valley that you think is most important?"
Ancestor Huo Yun blinked his eyes in surprise. But he was secretly happy inside because Baek Ain didn't imdiately reject his proposal.
With that in mind, Ancestor Huo Yun laughed and happily escorted them to a secluded part of the Burning Fla Valley. This place is rich in fire elents and close to the Ancient Furnace.
Every ti Baek Ain and others took steps here, they could hear a sizzling noise beneath them. Ancestor Huo Yun ticulously explained that the Burning Fla Valley originated from this area.
Yes, Inner Fire Veins!
Or, if Baek Ain has to use his own words, a living lava that has ford an inner network underground. It provides everyone in the Burning Fla Valley with a rich fire attribute, Dou Qi.
In fact, Inner Fire Veins is not any weaker than the resource points the Eight Ancient Clans owned. As long as it absorbed the natural energy in the plane, it could even evolve into a blessed area.
"No wonder the Burning Fla Valley is prosperous." Baek Ain couldn't help but comnt.
"Right?" Ancestor Huo Yun proudly patted his chest.
"Unfortunately, Inner Fire Veins' energy is too dangerous for a human's body to absorb directly, so we could only refine it first with Nine Dragon Lightning Fla and Ancient Furnace..."
"So, that's why." Baek Ain nodded in understanding.
At the sa ti, a system notification also echoed in his head.
[Ding! You have discovered Burning Fla Valley's Inner Fire Veins! Do you want to Sign In?]
Baek Ain chuckled slyly, 'Hehe, don't mind if I do.'
