Chapter 2438
by“In order to achieve immortality, the Devouring Heaven Great Emperor once searched for the Tree of Immortality. He even broke open the passage of the interface and went to countless lower plane star regions. And every time he went to a star region, countless cultivation stars would be devoured by him, resulting in the destruction of all living beings. It was precisely because of this reason that he aroused the wrath of both gods and men.” Qi Hai said leisurely, “Unfortunately, even the Devouring Heaven Great Emperor couldn’t find the trail of the Tree of Immortality.
Yang Kai felt a pang after hearing this.
He could be certain that the Devouring Heaven Great Emperor had never been to the Hengluo Star Region. If he had gone there, there was a high chance that he could have found the Tree of Immortality. However, his arrival would definitely bring indelible disasters to the Hengluo Star Region.”
Qi Hai continued, “Since the Tree of Immortality couldn’t be found, the Devouring Heaven Great Emperor could only think of other ways. It is rumored in the world that the reason why the various Great Emperors encirclement the Devouring Heaven Great Emperor in the Broken Star Sea is because his actions have become intolerable to heaven and earth. In fact, this is only part of the reason.”
Yang Kai’s expression changed, and he asked, “What other reason is there？”
“There is another and the biggest reason. He wanted to take action against another Great Emperor and rob that Great Emperor of something！”
Upon hearing this, Yang Kai’s mind raced, and he seemed to remember something all of a sudden, exclaiming, “Could it be…”
Qi Hai nodded and said, “That’s right, exactly what Brother Yang is thinking. If there is no mortal enmity between the Great Emperors, it is simply impossible for them to fight. However, the actions of the Heaven Devouring Great Emperor have undoubtedly touched the scales and bottom lines of all the Great Emperors. If they don’t pay attention to this kind of thing, then the next unlucky one might not necessarily not be themselves. So they joined forces and declared war on the Heaven Devouring Great Emperor. That battle was earth-shattering, and the universe shattered. This is the later Broken Star Sea！”
“And what the Heaven Devouring Great Emperor wanted to rob was precisely the Phoenix True Fire of the Flame Martial “Great Emperor!” Qi Hai’s expression was solemn. “The Phoenix True Fire is the inheritance of the Fire Phoenix. The Fire Phoenix will die, but the Phoenix True Fire will never go out. It even has the heaven-defying divine ability of Nirvana Rebirth. So the Phoenix True Fire is also known as the Nirvana True Fire and is the number one thing among the Heaven and Earth’s strange fires. The Heaven Devouring Great Emperor wanted to obtain the Phoenix True Fire and understand the mystery of eternal life from it. If the Heaven Devouring Great Emperor really succeeded, then he might really get what he wished for.”
“During that battle, the Flame Martial Great Emperor who was the main target of the Devouring Heaven Great Emperor was the first to fall, and the Phoenix True Fire was also blasted out. In order to prevent the Devouring Heaven Great Emperor from obtaining the Phoenix True Fire, the Yuan Ding Great Emperor had to use his own Mountain and River Bell to suppress it. This was also a helpless move. Without the Mountain and River Bell, the strength of the Yuan Ding Great Emperor plummeted, and he also followed in the footsteps of the Flame Martial Great Emperor. However, the Mountain and River Bell and the suppressed Phoenix True Fire were sent away by another Great Emperor in the chaos of the battle and have since disappeared without a trace！”
“Over the years, countless martial artists have entered the Broken Star Sea, hoping to find the treasures left behind by those Great Emperors, but few people know that the Phoenix True Fire is suppressed under the Mountain and River Bell.”
After listening to Qi Hai’s words, Yang Kai immediately understood why he wanted to stay secretly. He couldn’t help but grin and said, “Brother Qi Hai really knows a lot.”
Qi Hai said, “Qi is also because of some special reasons that he has been paying attention to the news of the Phoenix True Fire and has consulted countless ancient books for this.”
“Special reasons？” Yang Kai raised his eyebrows.
Qi Hai clasped his fists and said, “To tell you the truth, Qi’s wife was seriously injured twenty years ago and has been unconscious ever since. Although Qi has tried every means to prolong her life, although her life is barely preserved, it is not a long-term solution. To save her, in this world, apart from the Undying Liquid on the Unaging Tree, only the Phoenix True Fire can do it.”
Yang Kai’s expression sank, and he snorted coldly, saying, “Brother Qi Hai, are you trying to ask me for the True Phoenix Fire？ If so, then I’ve misjudged you. I just had a nice chat with you, but I didn’t expect Brother Qi to still have this plan. Farewell！”
“Brother Yang misunderstood.” Qi Hai quickly waved his hand. “Can you listen to me one more word？”
Yang Kai looked at him coldly and said, “I have no kinship or acquaintance with you. Why should I bother with your shitty business.”
Qi Hai was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, and he said, “If Brother Yang is willing to help me with this matter, then Qi is willing to pay any price. As long as Brother Yang speaks, Qi will definitely handle it for you.”
“Even if it means asking you to die？” Yang Kai grinned, revealing an evil smile.
Qi Hai’s complexion changed slightly, but he quickly smiled freely and said, “If Brother Yang really saves my wife, Qi will commit suicide in front of you.”
Yang Kai was slightly moved, and the corner of his mouth twitched as he said, “Crazy！”
Qi Hai showed a smile and said, “I wonder if Brother Yang has ever met a woman in his life who can live and die together with him and never leave him. If you have met, then you must be able to understand Qi’s mood.”
Suddenly, several beautiful figures flashed in front of Yang Kai’s eyes, and his heart couldn’t help but be touched.
He was thinking, if those people encountered such a thing, what would he do？ Suddenly, he somewhat understood Qi Hai’s mood.
“Although it’s a pity, I can’t give you the True Phoenix Fire.” Yang Kai shook his head. The True Phoenix Fire was far too precious. He intended to leave it for Liu Yan and couldn’t just hand it over because of Qi Hai’s words.
Who knew if what Qi Hai said was true or false？ Even if it was true, he didn’t have much of a relationship with him.
Qi Hai said, “Brother Yang has truly misunderstood. I don’t want your True Phoenix Fire.”
Yang Kai furrowed his brows and said, “Then what do you want？”
Qi Hai replied, “I was just thinking that if it’s convenient for Brother Yang, could you come with me? As long as you use some of the True Phoenix Fire’s Nirvana Supernatural Power, it will be enough to save my wife, and it won’t cause you any loss at all.”
“Just this？” Yang Kai asked in surprise.
“Just this！” Qi Hai nodded seriously.
Yang Kai pondered for a moment and then said, “What kind of injury exactly did your wife suffer？ Why does it have to be the True Phoenix Fire to save her life？”
Qi Hai’s expression darkened as he said, “Rather than an injury, it’s more like she was poisoned by a kind of cold poison. Outside the border of our Eastern Region, there is a vast expanse of wild ancient land. Very few people set foot in that wild ancient land, so opportunities and dangers coexist. Many powerful warriors in the Eastern Region like to go to that wild ancient land to explore and temper themselves. My wife went to the wild ancient land alone twenty years ago and returned seriously injured a month later, and has been unconscious ever since. According to the diagnosis of the alchemists in our Qi Family Castle, the poison that my wife was poisoned with is the Heavenly Frost Earth Rain！”
“Heavenly Frost Earth Rain！” Yang Kai’s complexion changed upon hearing this, and he lost his voice and said, “One of the ten great poisons？”
Qi Hai looked at Yang Kai in surprise and said, “Brother Yang knows about Heavenly Frost Earth Rain？”
Yang Kai nodded slightly： “I’ve heard of it.”
Qi Hai smiled bitterly and said, “Since Brother Yang has heard of it and also pointed out that it is one of the ten great poisons, naturally he knows that people who are poisoned by this kind of poison basically have no solution.”
“That’s true！” Yang Kai sighed slightly. The ten great poisons have no solution once poisoned, and basically it’s just waiting for death, unless one encounters some peerless treasures of heaven and earth, such as the existence of the Evergreen Tree.”
“However, the True Fire of the Phoenix with the Nirvana Divine Ability may bring a glimmer of hope to my wife.” Qi Hai looked at Yang Kai with burning eyes and said, “The main purpose of my coming to the Broken Star Sea this time is to search for the True Fire of the Phoenix. I originally thought of bringing it back to Qi Family Fort, but… After seeing what happened just now, I realized that I was thinking too simply. With my current strength, not to mention subduing the True Fire of the Phoenix, I can’t even get close to it.”
Previously, the scene where the source power of the Golden Holy Dragon in Yang Kai’s body burst out and fought with the True Fire of the Phoenix, Qi Hai naturally saw it in his eyes. That terrifying battle made his whole body tremble.
“Brother Qi thinks too highly of me. I haven’t subdued it either, I just temporarily suppressed it.” Yang Kai explained lightly.
“Suppress…” Qi Hai gulped down a mouthful of saliva. This sentence sounded even more unbelievable than that Yang Kai had already subdued the True Fire of the Phoenix. He muttered with a look of admiration, “Brother Yang is really a god-like figure.”
Yang Kai furrowed his brows and said, “Although Brother Qi’s feelings for his wife are so touching that even the heavens and the earth are moved, please forgive Yang Mou for being powerless to help.”
Qi Hai’s complexion darkened. He also knew that this kind of thing couldn’t be forced. Yang Kai hadn’t refined and subdued that Phoenix True Fire at all. Even if he wanted to help, he couldn’t. This was the truth. If he wanted to save his wife, Yang Kai had to refine the Phoenix True Fire first and make it obey his heart. Otherwise, once he sacrificed the Phoenix True Fire, not only could he not save people, but I’m afraid he would burn people to ashes in an instant.
“Then… when Brother Yang refines the True Fire in the future, can you go to Qi Family Fort in the Eastern Region？” Qi Hai looked at Yang Kai with a pleading face and said eagerly, “Now my wife only has this one way to survive. Brother Yang, don’t worry. What Qi Mou saw just now will never be spread outside. Otherwise, I will surely be struck by lightning.”
“Qi Family Fort is in the Eastern Region？” Yang Kai raised his brows.
“Exactly.”
“If it’s in the Eastern Region, I may go there.” Yang Kai nodded. This time, whether he can get news about Xiao Xiao from Yin Lesheng or not, he has to go to the Eastern Region, because Xiao Xiao is very likely to be stranded in the Eastern Region.
“Really？” Qi Hai was overjoyed when he heard this and said a little nervously, “That’s great. By the way, if Brother Yang goes to the Eastern Region, just inquire about the Barbaric Ancient Land. My Qi Family Fort is near the Barbaric Ancient Land.”
“Let’s talk about it when the time comes.” Yang Kai didn’t agree right away. It was really hard to give a promise about this kind of thing. Otherwise, if he failed to fulfill the promise at that time, Qi Hai might hold a grudge against him.
Qi Hai clearly understood this too, but now the initiative was completely in Yang Kai’s hands, and he couldn’t force it. He could only take out a communication bead from his Space Ring and carefully hand it to Yang Kai, saying, “Brother Yang, this is Qi’s communication bead. Maybe it can be used in the future.”
Yang Kai took it and casually threw it into his Space Ring, then bowed and said, “Well, let’s part ways here.”
Qi Hai nodded with a complex expression.
Before Yang Kai could leave here, Qi Hai suddenly said again, “Brother Yang, wait a moment！”
“What’s the matter？” Yang Kai turned around and looked at him.
Qi Hai said seriously, “Brother Yang, do you want to go after that Mountain and River Bell？”
Yang Kai grinned and said, “It’s a Great Emperor’s treasure. How could I miss it？ I should always give it a try.”
Qi Hai said, “The Mountain and River Bell of Great Emperor Yuan Ding has infinite power. In the Dao Source Realm, basically no one can succeed in subduing it, unless they get the recognition of the Artifact Spirit and make it take the initiative to choose its master.”
After hearing this, Yang Kai flicked his hair and said handsomely, “I’m so handsome. It should take a fancy to me, right?”
Qi Hai had a black line on his face.
