428: Scramble
In these past few years, Qian Chenji and Yu Mofan both successfully advanced to the Immortal Lord Realm, greatly increasing their strength.
Now, both of them had come for this Eternal Immortal Flame.
Their gazes swept across, and Qian Chenji and Yu Mofan also noticed Su Changqing's figure; the two quickly walked over.
"Brother Su, long time no see."
The two smiled and bowed, somewhat surprised.
Su Changqing also returned the bow:
"Brother Qian, Miss Yu, long time no see."
"Brother Su, have you also come for this Eternal Immortal Flame?"
Qian Chenji spoke first.
Su Changqing heard this and nodded frankly.
"That's right, it's for this Eternal Immortal Flame."
All three were here for the Eternal Immortal Flame, making them rivals.
However, none of the three were ordinary individuals, so they didn't care too much.
"This Eternal Immortal Flame has an extraordinary origin and has been suppressed beneath this Qi Refining Pagoda. It's only recently that disturbances have been reported, making it unstable. However, this place is the territory of the Immortal Spirit Academy, and they have the home advantage. It won't be easy to seize this Eternal Immortal Flame."
Qian Chenji slowly explained.
Su Changqing heard this and looked over.
In the field, almost half the people were dressed in Immortal Spirit Academy attire.
These people were the powerhouses of the Immortal Spirit Academy, ranging from the Immortal Venerable to the Golden Immortal Realm, all present.
This Immortal Spirit Academy was also no ordinary force.
It was located west of Central Province, recruiting all the Prodigies of the Immortal Realm. The Academy was filled with powerhouses, and many strong individuals, after graduating from the Immortal Spirit Academy, maintained a connection.
Therefore, its foundation was quite deep, even surpassing the Beast Taming Sect and the Liu Family of Central Province.
Of course, compared to the Supreme Immortal Court, it was still far inferior.
However, its strength was enough to be considered top-tier.
Su Changqing saw that five Immortal Venerable powerhouses from the Immortal Spirit Academy were present in the field, including two Immortal Venerable Middle Stage and three Immortal Venerable Early Stage.
And Qian Chenji and Yu Mofan were not traveling alone; each was accompanied by two Immortal Venerables.
After all, these two were the top Prodigies of their respective forces; if they traveled alone, they could easily encounter danger.
"Although the snatching of Immortal Fire relies on individual ability, Brother Su, with only Golden Immortal cultivation, your chances of winning are probably not high."
Yu Mofan spoke.
She saw at a glance that Su Changqing was still only at the Golden Immortal Peak cultivation, and had been stuck in the Golden Immortal Realm.
After all, he controlled too many Laws, and the difficulty of advancing to Immortal Lord was not just generally great.
Even if Su Changqing could contend with Immortal Venerable powerhouses, with so many Immortal Venerables in the field, he alone would definitely have no chance of winning.
In fact, Yu Mofan even felt a bit of pity.
After all, Su Changqing had too many Laws within his body, which might even prevent him from ever breaking through to the Immortal Lord Realm.
Perhaps by the time she reached Immortal Venerable, Su Changqing would still be stuck in the Golden Immortal Realm.
Su Changqing smiled faintly, not caring, and said calmly:
"When Immortal Fire appears, it's all about individual ability."
The two heard this and said no more.
In any case, both of them were determined to obtain the Immortal Fire on this trip.
Su Changqing glanced around and also saw a few familiar figures, people from the Liu Family of Central Province and the Beast Taming Sect.
These two families had little interest in this Immortal Fire; each only dispatched an Immortal Venerable Early Stage and a few Immortal Lords to try their luck.
In the field, the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.
The Qi Refining Pagoda swayed, and the Eternal Immortal Flame inside seemed about to emerge.
In the field, the Immortal Venerables of the Immortal Spirit Academy were on high alert.
After all, this Eternal Immortal Fire was a treasure of their Immortal Spirit Academy; if it were taken by other forces, it would not only be a loss but also a disgrace.
"Pay attention, the Scarlet Ridge Immortal Flame is about to appear."
Xue Feng Immortal Reverend, a Vice Dean of the Immortal Spirit Academy, spoke.
He was at the Immortal Venerable Middle Stage cultivation, a Vice Dean of the Immortal Spirit Academy, noble in status, and extremely powerful.
Behind him, several Immortal Venerables nodded solemnly.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on the Qi Refining Pagoda.
Suddenly.
The ground shook, and the Qi Refining Pagoda cracked open in response.
Then, a ball of scorching flame shot into the sky.
The power of the flame instantly illuminated an area of tens of thousands of miles, and countless powerhouses felt covetousness in their hearts.
One must know that the Eternal Immortal Flame had a certain auxiliary effect even on Immortal Venerable powerhouses.
And if it were used to refine for a Junior in the Family, it could create a Prodigy.
The Eternal Immortal Flame had an extraordinary origin and extremely strong offensive power, especially for Alchemists or Artifact Refiners, it was even more beneficial.
Many of the Immortal Venerables present were even hired by certain Alchemists.
"Boom!"
Along with a violent explosion, the Scarlet Ridge Immortal Flame instantly burst in the air in the next moment.
Then, Xue Feng Immortal Reverend's figure flashed, heading straight for the Scarlet Ridge Immortal Flame.
As he was about to grasp the Scarlet Ridge Immortal Flame, an attack came from behind.
Xue Feng Immortal Reverend saw this and quickly dodged.
"Hahahaha, Xue Feng Immortal Reverend, treasures belong to the capable. I won't be polite with this Scarlet Ridge Immortal Flame."
As the voice fell, another Immortal Venerable Middle Stage powerhouse had already arrived near the Scarlet Ridge Immortal Flame.
"Flying Cloud Old Ghost, this item is a supreme treasure of my Immortal Spirit Academy! How dare you steal it? My Immortal Spirit Academy will never let this rest!"
Xue Feng Immortal Reverend was furious and immediately put down harsh words.
Who knew that Flying Cloud Immortal Reverend was not afraid, sneering repeatedly.
"To tell you the truth, this Scarlet Ridge Immortal Flame was entrusted to me by an Alchemist friend to acquire. After it's done, he will help me break through to the Immortal Venerable Late Stage."
With that, Flying Cloud Immortal Reverend tightly clutched the Scarlet Ridge Immortal Flame, his eyes filled with greed.
This item was closely related to his advancement to the Immortal Venerable Late Stage, so he naturally wouldn't easily hand it over.
Even if it meant becoming an enemy of the Immortal Spirit Academy.
Flying Cloud Immortal Reverend's action naturally aroused the anger of the Immortal Venerables of the Immortal Spirit Academy.
In an instant, several figures attacked in unison.
"Boom!"
The battle erupted instantly.
And the Immortal Venerables who were originally watching from below also didn't hesitate, directly joining the great melee.
At this moment, it was the best time to contend for the Scarlet Ridge Immortal Flame.
The aftermath of the battle between over thirty Immortal Venerables was extremely terrifying.
Even Yu Mofan and Qian Chenji, these two Prodigies of the Immortal Lord Realm, could only retreat silently, not daring to step forward, fearing being affected.
The two looked at Su Changqing and warned:
"Brother Su, in such a battlefield, if you don't have Immortal Venerable-level combat power, it's probably best not to easily get involved."
"That's right, this level of battle is not something you and I can participate in; it's better to watch from the side."
Although the two had previously heard that Su Changqing had slain an Immortal Venerable from the Liu Family of Central Province, they didn't actually believe it in their hearts.
They thought Su Changqing must have used some special means.
Now, seeing his Golden Immortal Peak cultivation, they believed it even less.
Of course, the two had a subtle emotion hidden within them.
Although Su Changqing had defeated them both back then, Su Changqing had completely cut off his own path of cultivation, making it impossible to advance to Immortal Lord in the future, and the gap between them would only grow wider.
However, Su Changqing only smiled faintly, then looked up and said:
"What you two said makes sense, but... it's time for me to make my move."
