Luo Yunyang was very satisfied with the figures on his attribute regulator . This also made him realize that he felt a deep friendship for Yunxi .
Although his sort of friendship sounded simple, it wasn't easy to compensate her .
From now on, he and Yunxi would no longer have the uncomplicated relationship of an employer and an employee .
Luo Yunyang took one more step and stepped through the large golden door before flashing a huge smile at Yunxi . Yunxi returned his wide grin .
Entering this massive golden door wouldn't have posed a problem for Yunxi and Li Qingyun . Yunxi glowed purple, whereas Li Qingyun seemed to be bathed in flames as she charged through like a fiery wind .
When the two of them entered, the six teams were all gathered . Crown Prince Nanshan's gaze on Luo Yunyang wasn't friendly . If Yunxi wasn't standing beside him, perhaps he might have ripped Luo Yunyang to shreds .
As Yunxi stood calmly on the spot and surveyed her surroundings, she realized that what lay ahead of them was a mountain range .
There was indeed a completely different world within the sacred tower .
Most of the people present weren't bothered by these circumstances . After all, they were extraordinary beings who had already seen the majority of the treasures hoarded by a Nebula-Grade existence .
"Quick, take a look here!" someone shouted loudly .
Luo Yunyang and the others walked over quickly and discovered four pill furnaces .
The four-meter tall pill furnaces, which had intricate engravings on them, didn't seem ordinary .
Every line of carving seemed to contain some form of charm, so when all these markings were joined, they seemed to form something .
When Luo Yunyang and the others arrived before the four pill furnaces, they saw a line of words floating mysteriously above the furnaces .
"Gather 100 divine flames and soar straight to the heavens!"
These 10 words seemed to contain boundless awe . When they appeared, some people felt kind of afraid .
Although the words disappeared completely in a flash, everyone still felt some reverence in their minds .
"According to the meaning of those words, it seems like we have to gather flames to light the furnaces . Only this way will we be able to get past this stage," Li Qingyun said as she circled the pill furnaces a few times .
Yunxi and the others had also guessed as much . Yunxi patted one of the pill furnaces and said, "Unless I am wrong, these pill furnaces are Star Nine-Grade treasures . Obtaining one of them would make this trip worthwhile . "
When Yunxi said this, Li Qingyun and the others immediately got all worked-up .
Although they also possessed many treasures, Star Nine-Grade items were considered superior goods that were worth a fortune within the Blue Rain Empire .
Plus, this was only the first stage!
If the first stage of the sacred tower contained such treasure, then one could imagine how astonishing the items that followed would be .
"I think this pill furnace has an affinity with me," said a refined young man .
Although this young man had kept a low profile so far, this hadn't changed his status in the least . He was an aristocrat of the same generation as Crown Prince Nanshan and Yunxi .
His overbearing words invoked a furious gaze from Crown Prince Nanshan . However, the young man remained unmoved .
"You might as well say that every treasure has an affinity with you, Yuan Geng!" Nanfeng sneered .
Yuan Geng chuckled when he heard Crown Prince Nanshan . "There aren't that many things that I don't have an affinity with . You are a good example of that . "
Their attendants took a step forward, as if they were prepared to engage in combat at a moment's notice . Meanwhile, Yuan Geng had produced a scroll .
No, it was actually a drawing .
When this drawing was taken out, Luo Yunyang felt an intense fluctuation within it .
It was a fluctuation that seemed to contain some form of effectiveness . When this drawing fluctuated, Luo Yunyang clearly sensed the hint of a threat .
"It's a Treasure-Storing Drawing!" Crown Prince Nanshan said with a cold gleam in his eyes .
Yuan Geng smiled faintly . "I obtained one by accident, but I never imagined that it would come in handy here . Please let me have my way!"
Although Yunxi didn't say anything, her gaze was fixed on the map in Yuan Geng's hands . Yuan Geng, who appeared a little pleased, moved his arms gently . The scroll called a Treasure-Storing Drawing unfurled in the air .
It was empty . There was absolutely nothing on it .
However, when the scroll expanded completely, a green line shrouded one of the pill furnaces in the blink of an eye .
Under the watchful gazes of Luo Yunyang and the others, the pill furnace disappeared without a trace and a pill furnace appeared on the Treasure-Storing Drawing .
This furnace was exactly the same as the pill furnace that had just disappeared, which had obviously been absorbed into the Treasure-Storing Drawing .
After watching the pill furnace vanish, Luo Yunyang was aware that he had been too ignorant during his time in the Da Alliance . The Da Alliance could never hope to compete with the sort of items that the Blue Rain Empire possessed .
"Thank you for letting me have my way, everyone!" Yuan Geng extended his hand and reached out for the scroll .
Even Li Qingyun wasn't in the mood to mock this fellow . There were only four pill furnaces and their importance might determine whether they would be able to continue .
Now that Yuan Geng had taken the initiative and stored a pill furnace, the others had one less opportunity .
Just as Yuan Geng was about to get a hold of the Treasure-Storing Drawing, pure white flames blazed out of it .
Although these flames didn't display any impressive power, they instantly turned the weird Treasure-Storing Drawing into ash .
The pill furnace that had recently vanished appeared once again .
The furnace sat quietly in its original spot, as though nothing had happened .
The only difference was that Yuan Geng's face was dark now . The Treasure-Storing Drawing wasn't inferior in value to a Star-Grade pill furnace, so the fact that it had been burned to a crisp was a considerable loss for him .
Despite this loss, he still hadn't achieved anything other than drawing some animosity towards himself . All of his effort had been for naught .
"These pill furnaces aren't individual existences . They are mysteriously tied to this sacred tower . If we try to obtain them forcibly, we would be humiliated!" said Yunxi . Then, she glanced ahead at the mountain range before she added, "We better hurry up and gather the flames!"
As she spoke, her gaze fell on the peak of a purple mountain .
Although the mountain was tall and lofty, Yunxi saw a flickering light in the sky above it .
Crown Prince Nanshan and the others, who understood what Yunxi meant, turned towards the mountains in the distance as well .
There were all sorts of flames burning above every mountain . They would clearly have to climb many mountains to obtain these flames .
Although no one said anything, they all went their separate ways to complete this task . Yuan Geng, who had failed to obtain the pill furnace, was the first to shoot out towards a green mountain .
Luo Yunyang followed Yunxi to that purple mountain . On the way, Yunxi was taciturn . The Ice Fire Divine Sparrow, who seemed to sense what Yunxi was thinking, didn't say anything either .
As Luo Yunyang was about to thank Yunxi for using the Body-Tempering Golden Body Fluid on him, she suddenly stopped in her tracks .
"This flame-obtaining challenge will be the hardest for you, cousin . " Crown Prince Nanshan obstructed Yunxi's path with a smile .
"Gathering flames shouldn't be too difficult . However, there are only four pill furnaces, which means that two out of the six of us won't be able to make it to the next stage . "
"Although I do not look down on you, cousin, it is impossible to succeed by relying on just these two . They had a hard time making it through the extraordinary gravity after all . "
Yunxi stared coldly at Crown Prince Nanshan before she replied firmly, "You should be worrying about yourself!"
"This is my way of showing my kindness, cousin . Besides, our families have strong ties, don't you think so? If you want to, we could join forces . Although there is no guarantee that we would obtain two pill furnaces, it still beats trying to do everything single-handedly, right?"
"Besides, I can promise you that if we only obtain one pill furnace, I will give you half of the items that I obtain from this sacred tower . "
Half his share? The corners of Yunxi's lips curled into a slightly sardonic smile . She waved the sleeves of her robe, ignoring Crown Prince Nanshan before heading directly towards the mountain .
Crown Prince Nanshan didn't stop her . Instead, he chuckled . "It's fine that you don't want to accept my kind proposal, cousin . Never mind . I believe that you will realize that cooperating with me would be your wisest choice . "
He then turned to a subordinate beside him and gestured . "Go split up and gather flames . When you've gathered 100, meet back here . "
As his seven subordinates took to the skies, Crown Prince Nanshan's lips curled into a cold smirk . "How do you hope to compete with just one person, cousin? Can you really rely on those two pieces of trash?"
