# Chapter 925: Ye Xu's Flame
All eyes were fixed on that mountain peak. Through the mountain, they seemed to see a flame, flickering faintly. Under the reflection of this terrifying flame, the mountain itself appeared to become transparent.
Fire within the mountain, the mountain burned by fire!
That cluster of flame flickered on and off, carrying traces of dark red, sometimes illusory, sometimes solid. Around the flame, everything seemed empty—no mountain rocks, only a void of blazing light.
"Void Flame!" Some people's pupils suddenly contracted. This flame was an incredibly powerful void flame, but it had already taken on a layer of solid form, and the dark red color indicated it was the highest grade of void flame.
"Ye Xu's Flame!" Tianlin Gongzi and the other Martial Emperor's Disciples' eyes trembled slightly. This Carefree Mountain indeed possessed Ye Xu's Flame. They had to obtain it.
"Let's go!" With a step forward, their bodies rose into the air, charging toward the rolling flame mountain.
The Dragon Lord of the East Sea Dragon Palace, the Emotion-Killing Princess of the Divine Palace, and Duanmu Prince of the Jade Heaven Royal Clan all flickered into motion, rushing toward the central Ye Xu's Flame.
"Everyone, don't forget our agreement." Tianlin Gongzi said lightly to the others. The powerful experts' eyes hardened, showing contemplative expressions. They had learned from these Martial Emperor's Disciples that Carefree Mountain contained a high-grade flame. The reason the Ten Thousand Sects Assembly was held at Carefree Mountain was precisely because they had already contacted the Martial Emperor's Disciples and made arrangements.
In return, the Martial Emperor's Disciples had agreed to certain conditions, such as giving them some good items and, additionally, destroying the Heavenly Lake.
"Hehe, rest assured, I naturally remember the agreement." The Dragon Lord smiled slightly, but his heart was pounding. Ye Xu's Flame, appearing in dark black color—this kind of terrifying flame could easily incinerate even Venerable-level experts like themselves. Even if they wanted to obtain it, it would be as difficult as reaching the heavens. Yet such a powerful flame was right before their eyes and had nothing to do with them, which made these overlords of the Qian Domain feel unwilling.
"You'd better keep the agreement and help us seize this flame. We will also give you the agreed-upon items. Otherwise, we will summon our fellow disciples and seniors, and your sects will be razed to the ground."
Tianlin Gongzi threatened lightly, causing those experts' eyes to stiffen. They were actually being threatened. But considering the other party's identity, they could only swallow their anger and endure the humiliation.
A Martial Emperor-level expert had more than one or two disciples—countless disciples, in fact, ranging from Heavenly Martial Realm to Venerable Realm, including some extremely powerful Venerables, forming a terrifying force. Although these disciples might not necessarily receive personal instruction from the Martial Emperor, they still maintained contact with each other.
A powerful Venerable-level Martial Emperor's Disciple could potentially turn the entire Qian Domain upside down.
"Rest assured, even if we wanted this flame, we couldn't obtain it. Tianlin Gongzi, feel free to take the flame." The Carefree Sect Leader said heartily. As the Carefree Sect Leader, he naturally wouldn't offend the Carefree Divine Sect.
"Good. I'll trouble the Sect Leader and all the other sect masters to clear the path for us." Tianlin Gongzi said lightly.
The Carefree Sect Leader and the others turned around and struck out terrifying palm forces toward the flame mountain. Rumbling sounds erupted as the mountain peaks shattered.
These powerful Venerables could destroy mountains with a wave of their hands.
"Boom, boom, boom..." Waves of sky-shaking palm forces blasted out, and the mountain range continuously crumbled and broke apart. Waves of flame began to stir wildly.
Many people in the distance could only watch helplessly. The power of the flames on this flame mountain was beyond what they could withstand. If they stepped inside, the flames would incinerate them to death.
"So these Martial Emperor's Disciples came for the flame of Carefree Mountain." The crowd finally understood. Moreover, these Martial Emperor's Disciples had some agreement with those powerful sect masters. These people were to help the Martial Emperor's Disciples seize the treasure.
However, that terrifying Ye Xu's Flame—how could these Heavenly Martial Realm Martial Emperor's Disciples possibly handle it?
The endless sky-burning flame mountain was shattered. Toward the peak where Ye Xu's Flame was located, a path was forcibly opened, wide enough for people to pass through.
"Thank you, all sect masters."
The several Martial Emperor's Disciples stepped forward, heading toward the central vast flame mountain, and shouted: "I hope all sect masters will keep the agreement—do not approach within half a step. Additionally, help stop the others."
Those sect masters fell silent, guarding the checkpoint, blocking others from crossing this area.
"Brother Hua, this flame won't do you much good. I hope Brother Hua can yield it to me." Tianlin Gongzi said to the young man from the Hua Clan beside him.
"This Ye Xu's Flame is a void flame. How could it be useless to me? Tianlin Gongzi, you should try persuading those two instead." The Hua Clan young man said casually with a smile. But Tianlin Gongzi had only asked tentatively—of course, this Hua Clan young man wouldn't let go of this void flame.
As for that madman, if he could obtain Ye Xu's Flame, he would probably dare to kill Tianlin Gongzi himself, so there was no need for words.
And the remaining ice-fire young man—what he loved most were extreme flames and extreme ice souls. Encountering this void flame, he was even less likely to give it up.
"This Ye Xu's Flame, I am determined to obtain it." Tianlin Gongzi thought to himself.
"Let each rely on their own abilities." The ice-fire young man spat out a light voice, stepped forward, and rushed toward Ye Xu's Flame. He excelled in ice and fire. If he obtained Ye Xu's Flame, he could definitely unleash its terrifying effects. However, the others wouldn't let him succeed so easily.
"Come back." A cold shout rang out. The Hua Clan young man made his move. With a single shout, a terrifying suction force attached itself to the ice-fire young man's body, causing him to stiffen, as if he would stop and be unable to move forward.
"Get lost!" With an angry roar, terrifying ice soul power extended toward the Hua Clan young man. Wherever it passed, the space turned to ice, frozen solid.
At the same time, Tianlin Gongzi's body flickered rapidly, leaping toward the mountain range.
"Where do you think you're going?" Brilliant golden light bloomed. A terrifying destructive force enveloped Tianlin Gongzi's body, causing him to stiffen. Instantly, he released his martial soul, pressing it toward the opponent.
Everyone was going all out. Coming to the Qian Domain this time, they were determined to obtain Ye Xu's Flame. As long as they could get close to it, they had ways to collect it.
In the distance, the crowd gathered at the edge of the passage, watching the four Martial Emperor's Disciples fighting for the flame. Their eyes hardened. These great sect masters had actually made an agreement with them, personally guarding the checkpoint and not allowing anyone to approach.
However, some people also coveted Ye Xu's Flame. They circled around the endless flame mountain, trying to get close to the peak where Ye Xu's Flame was located. Even if they didn't know whether they had a chance to obtain this terrifying flame, they at least wanted to try.
On all sides of the flame mountain, peaks continuously crumbled. Many people were clearing paths, splitting open the flame mountain, forcibly cutting out many roads.
The four Martial Emperor's Disciples continued their violent battle. Even when paths were cleared and people approached the mountain range where Ye Xu's Flame was located, they acted as if they hadn't noticed, still fighting extremely fiercely.
"Void flame." Someone used their true essence power to grab at Ye Xu's Flame. But as soon as their true essence approached Ye Xu's Flame, they immediately felt a terrifying burning pain, extremely intense and unbearable. They simply couldn't get close to Ye Xu's Flame.
"All of you, get lost! This Ye Xu's Flame is not something you can obtain." Tianlin Gongzi swept a cold glance at those people, his killing intent leaking out.
But at that moment, within the vast flame mountain, snowflakes began to fall. This pure white snow drifted with the wind, scattering through the air, continuously spreading, covering more and more area. Only when they landed on the flame mountain did the snowflakes melt.
"Hmm?" Many people's eyes hardened. How could there be snowflakes? The flames here were so fierce—how could snow still fall from the sky?
Their gazes looked into the distance. At the end of the snowflakes, there was a figure walking on the snow, ignoring the flames pressing close to him. His figure was both illusory and solid. This snow-covered space gave people an unreal feeling.
As for the young man stepping along the snowy path, just one glance made the crowd's hearts tremble violently.
Although they couldn't sense his aura, just looking at him made them feel as if they could sense that bone-piercing cold invading their bodies. Jet-black long hair, ink-like eyebrows, cold and emotionless pupils, a black long robe, and rolling demonic qi swirling around him.
"Demon!"
"What a terrifying demonic young man!" The crowd's expressions stiffened. Just one look, and they could feel that this young man must be extremely terrifying!
