A living person, a powerful Nine-Tribulations True God, was instantly incinerated into nothingness!
Witnessing all this, Dongfang Xuanyi, Wang Chen, and the others involuntarily turned deathly pale, their hands and feet completely icy cold.
They had never imagined that a team of seven coming to Fla Mountain to pick "Fire Elental Lotus Seeds" would lose soone before they even reached the territory of the Fire Elental Lotus Seeds!
This sudden turn of events disrupted everyone’s plan.
Seeing that there were still hundreds of peach pit-sized fiery red bugs flying towards them, even within the blazing heat of the Fiery Realm, everyone felt a chill from their bodies to their souls.
Now, where would they dare to underestimate these Nine-Tribulations True God’s Fire Bugs!
These Fire Bugs might appear to be of Nine-Tribulations True God level, but the flas they turned into after death were terrifying to the extre!
Everyone felt that the flas that had killed Tang Xuan just now certainly surpassed those at the Lower God King level and might have reached the Middle God King or even Upper God King level.
If they were to be touched by these flas, their end would likely be the sa as Tang Xuan’s, dead without even ashes remaining!
Right then, not only were Dongfang Xuanyi, Wang Chen, He Ye, and Chen Bi scared enough to have sowhat shaky legs, but even the previously imposing and elegant Female Martial Artist "Ruan Yuan" was terrified, her lips turning sowhat pale.
While these people were unsure whether to resist or run from the hundreds of terrible Fire Bugs still flying toward them, they heard a voice at the sa ti: "These ’Fire Bugs’ are called ’Death Phosphorus Bugs.’ Once they die, they can burst into flas hundreds of tis more powerful than their combat strength, instantly killing a martial artist."
"To deal with these Fire Bugs, you cannot run; otherwise, they will chase and hit you, directly burning you to death. Quickly suppress all your auras, stand still, and don’t move, even if these Fire Bugs land on you. After they fly past, you’ll be safe!"
This voice was precisely Ye Chen’s!
Ye Chen’s voice carried an absolute calmness, awakening everyone from their panic with hearts racing.
Rembering how Ye Chen’s earlier warning had helped them avoid a fatal crisis, where else could their thoughts wander? They quickly held their breaths as Ye Chen had said, standing still without moving a muscle!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
When the six people stood still without moving, the whole world seed to fall silent, with only the "buzzing" of the flying Fire Bugs audible.
Thud!
One Fire Bug directly landed on the delicate "Chen Bi."
The cute and petite Chen Bi was so scared she almost cried out loud!
It was only at the last mont that she managed to control her mind and not cry out, the consequences of which would have been unimaginable. Yet even so, her clothes were completely soaked through! Enjoy new stories from .Côm
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Not just one Fire Bug landed; among the hundreds, dozens as if exploring, also landed on the bodies of the people present, causing the other people’s hearts to tighten completely.
They had no idea if Ye Chen’s words would work, and they didn’t know whether these terrifying Fire Bugs would suddenly erupt in flas, burning them alive!
Although the Fire Bugs stayed on them for only a short ti, it felt like an eternity for these people.
Only after several dozen breaths passed did the Fire Bugs on the six people take off, having noticed nothing unusual. They rejoined the main body of the several hundred flying Fire Bugs and finally flew away from everyone’s vicinity.
Only when the Fire Bugs were completely out of sight did the people at the scene collapse to the ground.
Even though they had faced many dangerous situations, these terrifying Fire Bugs capable of instantly incinerating people into nothingness still scared them badly!
Only after taking several deep breaths did Dongfang Xuanyi, who had finally cald his mind, look at the only calm Ye Chen, bowing with his fist to him, "Brother Ye Chen, we owe you our lives this ti. Otherwise, we all might have died here!"
"These damnable Fire Bugs, we’ve never heard of them before. How could they appear in this Fla Mountain!"
Hearing Dongfang Xuanyi’s words, Wang Chen, He Ye, and Chen Bi all stood up and expressed their gratitude toward Ye Chen. They understood that even with their thods, attacking these unknown Fire Bugs rashly could have made them the ones dead by now.
Even the usually arrogant Ruan Yuan didn’t dare to look down on Ye Chen this ti.
While she didn’t express her gratitude to Ye Chen directly, the pallor in her face was evident, and she looked deeply at Ye Chen, her eyes devoid of any disdain!
She had been so scared just now, while Ye Chen remained calm, clearly not afraid of these Fire Bugs. Moreover, Ye Chen knew that the bugs were "Death Phosphorus Bugs." Ruan Yuan realized that Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen hadn’t lied; this Four-Tribulations True God, Ye Chen, truly had sothing extraordinary about him!
Seeing the grateful looks from everyone, Ye Chen simply waved his hand and looked toward the place where Tang Xuan had been incinerated into nothingness, sighing, "It’s a pity I only found out about these ’Death Phosphorus Bugs’ from the Soul Beast in my Ice Snow Jade Pendant after they appeared. I was still a step too late to save Tang Xuan."
It was only after the Mini Nine inside the Ice Snow Jade Pendant reminded him that Ye Chen knew these suddenly appearing hundreds of Fire Bugs were called "Death Phosphorus Bugs."
By that ti, Tang Xuan had already reached out to capture a Fire Bug, and it was too late for him to withdraw his hand, even for Ye Chen to co to his rescue, leaving no choice but to watch him die.
"Tang Xuan, my friend..."
Hearing Ye Chen ntion Tang Xuan, the other people also showed a saddened face.

After all, the seven had co together, yet now one was dead. It was difficult for the remaining mbers to describe their feelings.
After a long silence, Wang Chen finally spoke again, "Let’s go. We mustn’t let Tang Xuan die in vain, nor can we let this venture be for nothing. We must get our hands on the ’Fire Elental Lotus Seed’!"
"On the journey ahead, everyone must be more careful. If there’s a demon we don’t understand, we should avoid it if possible. Safety is the priority!"
The remaining mbers nodded in agreent.
They had already reached Fla Mountain, and of course, they were not going to beat a retreat now!
The team continued to advance.
They encountered over a dozen waves of demons. So of the demons were recognized by Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen or Ye Chen, and the six of them joined hands to eliminate these beasts.
For so demons that appeared incredibly strange, the group couldn’t figure out their abilities and carefully circled around them instead.
With caution, the six of them finally reached a valley flanked by two huge cliff walls deep within Fla Mountain.
This valley stretched further than the eye could see, its length and depth completely unknown!
"According to what the Divine King ancestor of our clan told us, crossing this valley will take us to our destination, the ’Fla Lotus Pond’ where the Fire Lotuses grow," said Ye Chen.
"In the Fla Lotus Pond, there’s the Red-Crowned Fire Python, and no other demon dares to enter. Within a thousand miles of that region, it’s all the territory of the Red-Crowned Fire Python."
"This valley at the periter of that territory is the last difficulty we must face. Within this valley are Fla Black Crows. These Fla Black Crows are all of the ordinary Nine Tribulations True God strength. Although they are not difficult to deal with, there are so many of them that crossing this valley is impossible without confrontation. We must be ready for a tough battle ahead," said Dongfang Xuanyi, looking at the valley in front of them and addressing the others.
Ye Chen and the others nodded their heads, each bringing out their weapons and magical artifacts.
Then, they stepped forward and headed into the depths of the valley.
After progressing only a few miles into the valley, Ye Chen and the others saw the cliff walls on both sides of the valley covered with countless massive black crows.
Each crow was several ters in size with black flas flickering over its body. Its beak and claws shone with a terrifying lethal light.
When Ye Chen and the others saw these black crows, the Fla Black Crows also spotted the group of six.
Squawk! Squawk!
Suddenly, the Fla Black Crows let out harsh, discordant cries as thousands of them flapped their wings, attacking Ye Chen and the group.
In the farther reaches of the valley, even more Fla Black Crows crowded the sky, the exact number impossible to gauge.
Countless Fla Black Crows covered the sky in a blanket of fire and darkness. This scene caused the complexion of the six people below to change drastically.
"Charge through to the area near the ’Fla Lotus Pond’ where these black crows dare not venture!"
"Let’s all break through using our own thods!" shouted Dongfang Xuanyi. He wielded a blood-light broadsword that transford into a giant blade a thousand ters long, slaying dozens of Fla Black Crows in one swing.
As Dongfang Xuanyi killed dozens of Fla Black Crows, even more of the birds swooped toward him. With a grave expression, he pinched a magic formula with his hands, and his external true qi twisted violently, instantly shredding countless Fla Black Crows, their remains falling to the ground.
In another location, Wang Chen summoned a mirror artifact, which emitted golden rays of light. Each ray cut through the air, felling swathes of Fla Black Crows. Despite their numbers, the crows couldn’t get anywhere near Wang Chen.
Seizing the opportunity when a large number of Fla Black Crows fell, Wang Chen shot forward tens of ters.
The petite and lovely female martial artist, Chen Bi, activated a blue ribbon that protected her body, and with a flash of divine light, she flew into the horde of Fla Black Crows and began fighting them.
The white-clothed youth He Ye brought out a Mini Tower Artifact which spun and grew to a hundred ters tall.
With each impact or suppression from the Mini Tower, a large number of Fla Black Crows t their demise.
Ruan Yuan, who was powerful, moved even faster while killing the Fla Black Crows. The protective flas around her emitted terrifyingly cold auras, freezing every Fla Black Crow that touched it before they exploded into pieces.
As Ruan Yuan moved forward, she couldn’t help but look for Ye Chen.
She wanted to see for herself how formidable the young man, a Four Tribulations True God, really was.
Looking backwards, Ruan Yuan couldn’t see Ye Chen, but looking forward, even she, who was very quick at killing Fla Black Crows, was taken aback.
She saw that Ye Chen didn’t make any moves but simply shot forward. Wherever he passed, any Fla Black Crow that touched him was thrown back and shredded into pieces.
Both Ye Chen’s speed of progression and his rate of killing the crows were several tis faster than hers!
