Chapter 2359: Chapter 2356: [The Fire Clan’s Internal Strife!]

Flame Valley!

The second layer of the Fire Domain!

Beneath the Fire Well, Ye Tianchen, with absolute strength, wielding the Taie Sword and hovering above with the Holy Heaven Prison, reached the bottom of the Fire Well. It was there that a strange scene appeared, leaving Ye Tianchen puzzled and even surprised!

The Flame Valley has been perpetually burnt by flames year-round, never ceasing. It’s been completely engulfed by flames, both above and below ground, at least several kilometers high in the sky and hundreds of meters below ground, all shrouded in flames. There were once martial arts experts who attempted to enter the Flame Valley by digging tunnels, but they all failed, ending in ashes!

At the bottom of the Fire Well is a stone chamber. When Ye Tianchen saw the stone walls surrounding the chamber, with no traces of flames burning and not even a hint of the scorching heat, he realized that something unknown must have happened beneath this Fire Well. So he sat cross-legged at the cushion on the stone table, using his "Tracing Back to the Source" divine skill to uncover the truth!

A severely wounded youth was relentlessly pursued by three martial artists engulfed in flames, driven to the edge of Flame Valley. From their conversation, it was clear that the hunted youth was also a member of the Fire Clan. However, it seemed that he wasn’t accepted by the other members of the Fire Clan, unrecognized by them. Moreover, these individuals from the Fire Clan wanted to kill him!

When the youth claimed to be the "Fire God," the three Fire Clan pursuers were taken aback. Using his "Tracing Back to the Source" method, Ye Tianchen heard the youth’s words and found himself absorbed into the scene!

"Fire God, could this youth really be the youthful version of the Fire God?" Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but ponder.

With this thought, Ye Tianchen’s gaze settled on the gourd in the youth’s hand. It was a green gourd, unlike the Fire God Gourd, but it gave Ye Tianchen a feeling that when this green gourd transforms into the Fire God Gourd, the youth would indeed become the true Fire God!

Bang!

Spurt!

The youth was incredibly resilient, but facing the powerful trio from the Fire Clan, he still struggled to cope and was struck down, spewing blood from his mouth. Yet his gaze was resolute, possessing a never-yielding spirit, which somewhat surprised the pursuing trio and made them hesitate.

"Hmph, ant, you are not of the Fire Clan, daring to cultivate the Fire Clan’s divine skills is simply seeking death!"

"That’s right, your father modified the ancestral Fire Clan spell and was expelled from the clan. Now it’s your turn to die!"

"The Fire Clan divine skills are forbidden to outsiders. Anyone who dares to cultivate them will become an enemy of the entire Fire Clan and must be killed!"

The trio shouted loudly, expressing extreme displeasure with the youth, eager to bring about his doom.

Upon hearing their words, the youth glanced at the green gourd in his hand and scoffed, saying contemptuously, "From the ancient early stage to now, the Fire Clan has endured through ages. The words of the ancestral founder declared that the Fire Clan divine skills should be cultivated by all to maximize the Fire Power. The Fire Divine Abilities are not exclusive to the Fire Clan, but your faction within the clan has become increasingly vicious and despicable, reaching the point of betraying your teachers and ancestors. The Fire Clan should purge all of you!"

"Hahaha, purging our faction? By you? You seem ignorant of your own limits!"

"Your father couldn’t achieve such a feat, how could you? You can’t!"

"We control the Fire Clan. An outsider like you, a dying man, should remain silent!"

Boom!

Three powerful bursts of flame shot towards the severely wounded youth. He stood in mid-air, glaring at the flames, clutching the green gourd tightly, declaring loudly, "Since the ancient early stage, no Fire God has emerged, leading to chaos within the clan. If I become the Fire God, I will revitalize the Fire Clan and certainly eliminate despicable beings like you!"

Spurt!

The youth defended against two bursts of flame but was struck by the third, leaving a gaping hole in his chest, with blood continuously dripping. Yet he didn’t retreat, merely glancing at the trio with cold determination, stating, "I will definitely kill you!"

"Ha, truly ignorant of life and death, with an unyielding mouth. What will you use to kill us?"

"You’ve been running for your life along the way, just surviving by the skin of your teeth, without even the strength to fight back, and you dare to talk about killing us?"

"Ha, a person can be so shamelessly boastful to this extent, it’s still worthy of admiration!"

Wow!

The young man didn’t say anything, just glanced at the three members of the Fire Clan. Honestly speaking, he wasn’t a match for these three guys. They were inherently much stronger than him. However, his heart was resolute, and he believed that the green gourd in his hand would certainly help him grow stronger. Thus, the young man’s gaze turned toward the direction of Flame Valley!

"Flame Valley was once the training ground of our Ancient Early Stage Fire God Ancestor. Over the years, every genius of the Fire Clan has come to Flame Valley to explore, to comprehend, to refine themselves, yet none has succeeded!" The young man said solemnly and earnestly.

"Hehe, are you suggesting... you can succeed?" One of the Fire Clan members asked mockingly, smiling.

"Regardless of whether I can succeed, I will go to train in Flame Valley. Perhaps I can, like the Fire Clan Ancestor, become a Fire God within Flame Valley!" The young man’s eyes were filled with unwavering determination.

What Ye Tianchen didn’t anticipate was that Flame Valley was indeed the place where the Fire God, the Fire Clan Ancestor, achieved Great Divine Power. After that, Flame Valley became a destination that every member of the Fire Clan would visit, because they train using Fire Power, and the Fire Power within Flame Valley is the most worthy of comprehension. It was also where the Fire Clan Ancestor, the Fire God, once achieved enlightenment, so it would undoubtedly have left some insights, perhaps even some legacies. Not only Fire Clan members, but many Martial Arts Experts also want to venture into Flame Valley to investigate!

However, the Fire Power within Flame Valley is unimaginably strong. Not to mention other martial artists, even long-term Fire Power cultivating members of the Fire Clan find it overwhelming and cannot easily approach Flame Valley. There was once a member of the Fire Clan who was truly a prodigy; they approached Flame Valley but still ended up with their body and soul annihilated!

Therefore, not all Fire Clan disciples can smoothly enter Flame Valley. It requires certain strength, certain perception; it’s absolutely not something the average person can approach Flame Valley!

Whoosh!

Before the three Fire Clan members could react, the young man turned and dashed toward Flame Valley. The green gourd in his hand kept spinning. This was the treasure he cultivated from a young age, though it hadn’t yet become a powerful Fire Taoist Treasure. However, the young man firmly believed that this uncommon green gourd would certainly become a strong Fire Taoist Treasure!

"Damn it, this guy is just looking for death!"

"He’d rather die in Flame Valley than let us kill him!"

"Humph, fine. He threw himself into Flame Valley and ended up with his body and soul annihilated, saving us the trouble!"

These three Fire Clan members were ruthless characters who, knowing this young man was of the same clan, wouldn’t accept him and insisted on killing him. At the heart of it, they were afraid of their peers surpassing them, fearing this young man would steal their limelight!

Boom!

After the young man entered Flame Valley, he suddenly disappeared, seemingly without even a scream, and quickly fell into oblivion, leaving the three Fire Clan members to smile coldly. In their eyes, the young man being hunted was already at a dead end, simply not a match for the three of them. Throwing himself into Flame Valley to die was no more than an attempt to maintain a shred of dignity!

"It’s better that this guy is dead; we have one less competitor!"

"Indeed, this kid is younger than us yet has vast potential. If he truly returned to the Fire Clan, we might have no standing!"

"Back in the day, this kid’s father modified the ancestor’s Fire Taoist Cultivation Skill and was consequently expelled from the Fire Clan by our faction. Now, more than ten years later, this kid returns, but fortunately, he entered Flame Valley and is already dead!"

"Let’s go back and report to the clan. The Fire Clan is on the verge of being completely overtaken by our faction. No one can challenge us!"

"Yes, the powerful cultivation skills left by the Fire Clan Ancestor Fire God are also in our faction’s hands. Who can destabilize us?"

"Enough said, we need to return for a debrief. The kid is dead, his father also long dead, and the Fire Clan will come under our control completely!"

The three Fire Clan members turned to leave, but at that moment, a blaze of fire sprinted from Flame Valley, splitting into three, targeting these three guys...
