"The Spiritual Fire is in that tower. Won't it be dangerous?" the Giant Crocodile Beast King asked worriedly. If anything happened to the Spiritual Fire, the Giant Crocodile Beast King would most likely never be able to become a demon.
'"Don't forget that the Spiritual Fire came into existence here. It should not be in any danger in this city," the Peacock Beast King said. "Also, Lord Dragon Horse has already followed the Spiritual Fire into the high tower. With Lord Dragon Horse guarding it, the security of the Spiritual Fire should not be a problem."
"Even I do not understand this mysterious place," the Peacock Beast King continued. "I only know, from the memories that our ancestors passed down, that this was a place where immortal cultivators gathered in ancient times. This space is one of the shards from that ancient gathering place. The residents of the ancient city were the immortal cultivators of the lower echelons of the immortal cultivator society. As for the high tower, it seems that it was also used to train these lower echelon, immortal cultivator disciples. But for us, everything in the high tower is still very frightening."
The Peacock Beast King looked at the high tower with eyes full of fear. The tower was slanted at a 45° angle and the top half of it had collapsed.
The city they were in had existed long, long ago. Even the Seven Major Beast Kings did not know exactly how ancient it was. The monstrous beasts in the Fire Domain had always considered this space to be a forbidden land. Unless they were forced to, they absolutely would not put one foot in this place. The mysterious region had a terrifying aura that filled them with horror.
All of the monstrous beasts in the Fire Domain, even the Seven Major Beast Kings, had never dared to come to this region before. But this time, because of the Sacred Flame, the Seven Major Beast Kings had been compelled to come.
Among the Fire Domain's Seven Major Beast Kings, the Peacock Beast King knew the most about this mysterious place. That was because, in the Peacock Beast King's bloodline heritage, there remained the remnant information of his ancestors. This information was the strongest memories that the ancestors of the Peacock Beast King had held on to during their lives. Those images were marked in their bloodline and passed down to future generations.
Among the Seven Major Beast Kings, the Peacock Beast King's ability was second only to that of the Dragon Horse. It was also the wisest of the Seven Major Beast Kings. Hence, the other Beast Kings were willing to listen to what the Peacock Beast King said.
Elsewhere in the city, the human ancient martial art practitioners had finished their discussions. In the end, they decided to enter the ancient city. After all, knowing that the spiritual fire was imprisoned in the high tower, none of the ancient martial art practitioners who had come all this way wanted to give up.
What astonished Mo Wen was that there were more than ten human ancient martial art practitioner teams having discussions. Each team had Martial Arts Grandmasters to hold the fort. With so many human strong practitioners, it was no wonder that they could out the Fire Domain's Seven Major Beast Kings under so much pressure.
Mo Wen did not want to mingle with these ancient martial art practitioner teams. Hence, he found a quiet place to be alone. Knowing that the spiritual fire was in the ancient city, Mo Wen also did not want to give up. At least in a situation with so many people, there was still the possibility of him profiting amongst all the confusion.
Right now, there were still human ancient martial art practitioners flying into the ancient city. Although large numbers of monstrous beasts had gathered, all the human ancient martial art practitioners who had come were the best of the best. Aside from the Seven Major Beast Kings, very few monstrous beasts could pose a threat to them.
Mo Wen knew he was in the southern suburbs of the ancient city. As he explored part of the city, he had discovered a gate which was inscribed with ancient characters indicating that it was the southern gate of the city.
Mo Wen quietly flew into the air, maintaining a distance from the members of Golden Dragon Sect as he moved towards the ancient city.
"Grandmother, among the Seven Major Beast Kings, there is a Peacock Beast King which is very strong," Jin Ying said. "It is said that not long ago, the Yuanming Sect Grand Elder Gu Tong was injured by the Peacock Beast King. If Elder Gu Tong hadn't taken the Yuanming Sect's most valuable Yuan Ming Lantern with him, he would most likely have died at the hands of the Peacock Beast King." Jin Ying's expression was serious as she flew alongside Granny Jin Hua.
Among the Seven Major Beast Kings in the Fire Domain, the Peacock Beast King's ability was ranked number two. Jin Ying knew that they would certainly encounter the seven Beast Kings when they ventured into the city. She hoped her grandmother would not encounter a Beast King which was too strong.
Yuanming Sect Grand Elder Gu Tong was a famously strong practitioner from the Zhen Wu Mystery Dimension. His cultivation was comparable to that of her grandmother. He had also had the Yuanming Sect's most valuable Yuan Ming Lantern; even so, he had still nearly died at the hands of the Peacock Beast King.
"Ying'er, don't worry. There are some unparalleled strong practitioners among the human ancient martial art practitioners too. There will naturally be someone who will go up against those formidable Beast Kings."
Granny Jin Hua smiled. If they didn't have the certainty of success, the human ancient martial art practitioners would not enter the Fire Domain so boldly. Among the human practitioners who came, she could think of a few people who were far more capable than her.
The group moved at a fast speed. Soon, they arrived at the ancient city. Just as a Golden Dragon Sect ancient martial art practitioner was about to fly into the ancient city, his facial expression changed drastically. His body plummeted towards the ground like a piece of rock.
With a loud thud, the Golden Dragon Sect ancient martial art practitioner at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm slammed forcefully into the ground. He was facing downwards and his limbs outstretched.
"Huh?" The sudden change startled all the Golden Dragon Sect ancient martial art practitioners. They stopped immediately, staring cautiously at the city.
"Everyone, be careful. There is an Anti-air Field. We cannot fly any further." The Golden Dragon Sect ancient martial art practitioner who fell onto the ground crawled up. With a bitter smile, he loudly warned the others. There was a mysterious anti-air energy in the air above this ancient city. Nobody could fly above it.
No wonder then that earlier, the Dragon Beast King had actively descended from the air and walked on the ground when returning to the city.
The few members of the Golden Dragon Sect glanced at each other. Then, one by one they landed on the ground and walked in an orderly fashion through the city gates. This ancient city hid many secrets. No one dared to act recklessly in such a place.
However, they faced a new danger when walking on the ground. Before them, there were countless monstrous beasts blocking the city streets. Once an ancient martial art practitioner entered, the monstrous beasts would immediately swarm over from all directions.
The Golden Dragon Sect ancient martial art practitioner who had fallen into the city had already been surrounded by a large number of monstrous beasts. They swarmed out of the buildings and street corners, frenziedly attacking any human they could find.
Mo Wen flew in the air in front of the city gate. He glanced at the dense red wave of beasts in the city and rolled his eyes. No wonder the Dragon Beast King had stuffed all the monstrous beasts into the ancient city. Its goal was most likely to block the human ancient martial art practitioners from getting close to the spiritual fire.
The ancient city had an Anti-air Field. Once the monstrous beasts had blocked off the ground, the human ancient martial art practitioners would have to slaughter the creatures, cutting out a bloody path if they wanted to reach the city center.
These Beast Kings planned to use the lives of large numbers of monstrous beasts to hinder the human ancient martial art practitioners.
After all, the human ancient martial art practitioners that had the ability to reach the city were not weaklings. Although their numbers weren't many, each one of them was very powerful.
Mo Wen landed on the ground and entered the city through the southern city gate. The one step that he took looked undemanding, but with it, he traveled fifty to sixty meters. It was the Inch Travel Steps; one inch under his feet could cover a thousand miles.
With Mo Wen's current cultivation, he could already unleash the Inch Travel Steps to the pinnacle level that he had been able to in his previous life.
The streets of the ancient city were very wide, seemingly wider than roads in modern metropolitan cities. Mo Wen had just entered the city when monstrous beasts began to surround him from all directions. These monstrous beasts did not have high levels of cultivation. Most of them were third and fourth rank monstrous beasts. They were the main forces of the monstrous beast army.
Mo Wen did not begin slaughtering the monstrous beasts. Instead, he unleashed incredible movement techniques, nimbly slipping through the mass of monstrous beasts. The creatures could not even touch the corners of his clothes before he had quickly passed them.
Even when facing monstrous beasts, Mo Wen preferred not to kill. If he could avoid killing, he would. Also, fighting large numbers of monstrous beasts would undoubtedly increase his Inner Qi consumption, which would cause the speed that he was moving forwards at to decrease. It brought no benefit to him.
The goal of the Beast Kings was most likely to expend the human ancient martial art practitioners' Inner Qi. After all, it was almost impossible for monstrous beasts of these ranks to pose a threat to the lives of human ancient martial art practitioners.
With his incredible movement techniques, Mo Wen was like a fish in the water among the sea of monstrous beasts. He constantly moved forward, nimbly and smoothly. After fifteen minutes, he had traversed a large portion of the ancient city.
But the closer he came to the center of the ancient city, the stronger the monstrous beasts he encountered. A few fifth rank and sixth rank, even seventh rank monstrous beasts began to appear in his vision.
The appearance of these monstrous beasts finally caused Mo Wen's speed to slow down. Maybe one of these monstrous beasts would not have much effect on Mo Wen, but with so many monstrous beasts gathered together, the threat level was high.
The ancient city had six main roads, each of which led to the central square of the ancient city. Right now, on these six main roads, the silhouettes of human ancient martial art practitioners were everywhere. They were slaughtering their way through the sea of monstrous beasts as they moved forward.
Mo Wen took gigantic steps as he moved forward. His silhouette was like a fleeting shadow, constantly slipping pass the monstrous beasts. Occasionally he would attack once or twice, sending a few monstrous beasts that were blocking his way flying. Even a few seventh rank monstrous beasts could not stop him.
As time passed, Mo Wen got closer and closer to the center square. The monstrous beasts he encountered also got more powerful. The cultivation of some monstrous beasts in this area was no weaker than later stage Golden Elixir realm human ancient martial art practitioners. If ancient martial art practitioners such as Jiang Jingtao and Jiang Pingzhou got caught in such a wave of beasts, they absolutely would have perished.
Mo Wen, however, was proficient in movement techniques. He remained steady, still making his way forward.
Roar! Roar!
Suddenly, terrifying roars came from ahead. The sound was like rumbling thunder. It actually caused some smaller monstrous beasts in the surroundings to flip over on the ground from the shock.
Mo Wen glanced ahead. In the street in front of him, a few huge creatures had appeared. A Fire Ape covered in bloody red fur stood in the street. It was fifty meters tall, like a skyscraper. The Fire Ape's arms were very long, almost hanging down to the ground. A frightening aura was emanating from its body.
To the left of the Fire Ape, there was also a Fire Bull. The Fire Bull's shoulders stood at fifteen meters high. It was thirty meters long, and blazing flames covered its body. The aura it emanated was no weaker than the Fire Ape. The two monstrous beasts stood in the street, completely blocking it Mo Wen's path.
Mo Wen's expression turned somewhat serious. Although the two monstrous beasts were much weaker than the Beast Kings, they were certainly more powerful than ordinary pinnacle Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners. Taking them head-on, he would most likely not be a match for them.
Right now, he was less than a kilometer away from the center square, but a real stumbling block had appeared. Getting past the two monstrous beasts was clearly not going to be easy. The Fire Ape and Fire Bull were certainly commanding the main force of monstrous beasts on the main roads. Their positions in the Fire Domain were most likely only second to the Beast Kings.

If ancient martial art practitioners such as Jiang Jingtao and Jiang Pingzhou got caught in such a wave of beasts, they absolutely would have perished.Mo Wen, however, was proficient in movement techniques. He remained steady, still making his way forward.Roar! Roar!Suddenly, terrifying roars came from ahead. The sound was like rumbling thunder. It actually caused some smaller monstrous beasts in the surroundings to flip over on the ground from the shock.Mo Wen glanced ahead. In the street in front of him, a few huge creatures had appeared. A Fire Ape covered in bloody red fur stood in the street. It was fifty meters tall, like a skyscraper. The Fire Ape's arms were very long, almost hanging down to the ground. A frightening aura was emanating from its body.To the left of the Fire Ape, there was also a Fire Bull. The Fire Bull's shoulders stood at fifteen meters high. It was thirty meters long, and blazing flames covered its body. The aura it emanated was no weaker than the Fire Ape. The two monstrous beasts stood in the street, completely blocking it Mo Wen's path.Mo Wen's expression turned somewhat serious. Although the two monstrous beasts were much weaker than the Beast Kings, they were certainly more powerful than ordinary pinnacle Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners. Taking them head-on, he would most likely not be a match for them.Right now, he was less than a kilometer away from the center square, but a real stumbling block had appeared. Getting past the two monstrous beasts was clearly not going to be easy. The Fire Ape and Fire Bull were certainly commanding the main force of monstrous beasts on the main roads. Their positions in the Fire Domain were most likely only second to the Beast Kings.
