Chapter 1595: Lonely Heart Sea Holy Fire Sect

"Come on, once the immortal weapon comes out, it will probably cause a bloody storm on the Lonely Sun Continent. Even if we get it, whether we can keep it is another matter."

"Let's not think about the immortal weapon for now. Let's think about how to find the location of the lost city first, right?"

Dugu Yin squatted down first and smoothed out the map, and the others also came over.

"From what this map shows, the location of the Lost City should be the Red Fire Island in the Lonely Heart Sea. There is nothing special about this Red Fire Island. The most terrifying thing is the Red Refining Divine Fire in the center of the Red Fire Island. This flame is specifically used to burn the souls of cultivators. If a cultivator of a low realm approaches, his soul will be turned into ashes by the flame. Therefore, this Red Refining Divine Fire is also called the Soul-Transforming Flame."

"It's okay. After all, we are all in the Mahayana stage. The power of our souls is enough to resist the scorching of the Red Refining Divine Fire for a short period of time. But what about Fellow Daoist Xiao? I wonder if he can resist the Red Refining Divine Fire?" Zhu Xiu'gu was halfway through her words when she suddenly thought of Xiao Lin. Although Xiao Lin could fight against the three Great Sun Golden Bodies with his physical body, he was still in the late stage of tribulation, so she had this question.

After Zhu Xiu Gu finished speaking, the other three all turned their eyes to Xiao Lin. Immortal warriors do not cultivate their primordial spirits, and the power of their primordial spirits is much weaker than that of immortal cultivators. This is also basic common sense in the immortal cultivation world.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lin smiled slightly and said, "The Scarlet Refining Divine Fire is the acquired true flame. Although the power of the Yuan Shen of the cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing Stage can resist it, it is also very dangerous. However, Xiao still has some confidence, so the three fellow Taoists do not need to worry."

The three of them, including Dugu Yin, showed a half-believing and half-doubting expression when they heard it, but since Xiao Lin was so sure, they still chose to believe him. After all, no one would joke about their own life, let alone they were smart people who had lived for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

“The Red Refining Divine Fire is still easy to talk about, but according to rumors, under the ground of this Red Fire Island, there lives a Red Refining Three-Headed Soul-Transforming Turtle. The middle head of the turtle is always swallowing a mouthful of innate soul-transforming flame. Once you are sprayed with it, your soul will almost instantly turn into nothingness, and your body will die. Even the few old bald donkeys in the Buddhist sect don't dare to try it easily. I really didn't expect that the Lost City is under this Red Fire Island.” The strong man named Wen said speechlessly.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lin was secretly surprised. The Innate Soul Flame was a flame only recorded in ancient books. It was the true Innate Flame. Even someone like him who was comparable to the Mahayana stage could not resist it.

Dugu Yin's expression was calm. He smiled and said, "Friend Wen, please be patient. Dugu Yin has been prepared for this matter. Otherwise, he would not have gone to look for the Lost City now."

"Oh? That's true. We collected the map of the Lost City more than a hundred years ago. At that time, you said that the time was not right and did not plan to look for it immediately. You said that you would inform me when you were ready. I didn't expect that you would wait for more than a hundred years. Now it seems that you are here to deal with this evil beast?"

Hearing this, Dugu Yin waved his hands awkwardly and said, "Brother Wen thinks too highly of me. I can't deal with that evil beast. The Soul-Transforming Red Refining Three-Headed Turtle has lived for who knows how many tens of thousands of years. It has lived thousands of feet underground in the Red Fire Island all year round. This evil beast is not an immortal, but its magical powers are no less than those of ordinary immortals. It doesn't have any rare materials on it, so it has been able to survive until now. It's meaningless for us to fight it head-on. We just need to trick it and pass through the passage it is guarding."

"Is it difficult to make him turn a blind eye?"

"Of course it is impossible, but this is not a problem for Fairy Huoying." Dugu Yin smiled mysteriously, but turned his gaze to Fairy Huoying Zhu Xiu'gu.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiu Gu was slightly stunned, and said in confusion: "Brother Dugu, even the old bald donkeys in the Great Bodhi Temple can't kill this soul-transforming red three-headed turtle. How can I, a woman, with weak magical powers, deal with it? You'd better stop joking."

Dugu Yin smiled and said, "Fairy, you are too modest. Dugu Yin has been preparing for this expedition for a long time. He has also read through various books to find the habits of this Soul-Transforming Red Refining Three-Headed Turtle. Finally, Dugu Yin found its weakness."

"Brother Dugu, please stop keeping us in suspense and just speak directly."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yin stopped pretending to be mysterious and said with a smile: "Fairy and Brother Wen, I think you all know about Red Fire Island. There is a sect on this Red Fire Island."

"Holy Fire Sect?"

"Yes, it is the Holy Fire Sect. Every ten generations, the Holy Fire Sect holds a Holy Fire Festival. During this festival, a beautiful woman must be sacrificed to worship the God of Fire. Although this method is a bit cruel, it is rumored that only after the sacrifice can the Red Fire Island be safe. Otherwise, the mountains will collapse and the earth will crack, causing countless lives to suffer."

"Could this be the work of that evil beast?"

"Indeed, the Soul-Transmuting Red Three-Headed Turtle will transform into a human form every ten sixty years and have sex with the sacrificed woman. But how can a mortal body have such sexual pleasure with such a being? Afterwards, not only will the woman's soul be devoured, but even her body will turn into ashes because it cannot withstand the red divine fire of the Soul-Transmuting Red Three-Headed Turtle. But this is the only time every ten sixty years that it will leave the passage it is guarding."

"Dugu Yin, I treat you as a friend. Are you planning to sacrifice me? If you really think so, Zhu Xiu Gu will definitely not agree. I'm leaving now." Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiu Gu's pretty face flushed at first, but soon became a little angry, pointing at Dugu Yin and said loudly.

Dugu Yin was scolded for no reason, but he immediately thought of the reason, and waved his hands and said, "Fairy, you misunderstood. Even if Dugu Yin had the courage of heaven, he would not dare to say anything to you."

After saying this, Dugu Yin hurriedly told his plan.

It turned out that he planned to wait for the three-headed red turtle to be drunk for a short period of time after committing adultery on the day of sacrifice. If a woman appeared at this time, it would become lustful again and would not let her go. At this time, they could lead her out of the cave and trap her with the Tianyi Divine Water All Things Formation. In this way, they would be able to successfully pass through the passage guarded by it and enter the underground.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Huoying's expression eased a little. Although she was still being used as bait, she was merely being lured into the formation, which would not affect her reputation.

"Tianyi Divine Water All-Seeing Formation?" Xiao Lin's heart moved when he heard this formation.

"This method is feasible. The Tianyi Divine Water All-Seeing Formation is the nemesis of that evil beast. Although we cannot kill it or really trap it, we can still trap it for an hour or two. By then we will have enough time to go underground." Dugu Yin said.

He also told everyone his plan.

"Could it be that the Lost City is underground of the Red Fire Island?" asked Fairy Huoying.

Dugu Yin shook his head and said, "It is rumored that there is an entrance to an underground palace guarded by the Soul-Transforming Red Refining Three-Headed Turtle. No one has entered this underground palace for countless years. Now, from the map of the Lost City, it is located on the Red Fire Island. So Dugu Yin judged that the Lost City is most likely under the underground palace."

Then Dugu Yin continued, "As for what dangers there are under the underground palace, Dugu Yin has no idea. But you have cultivated to your current level, and you must have experienced many dangerous situations. As the saying goes, you can't get a tiger cub without risking it. The resources of the Gu Ri Continent are basically occupied by the Buddha and the Demon. Our Xiandao Sect has almost no chance to make a breakthrough. Now that we have this opportunity, it is still worth a try. Of course, Dugu Yin has told you everything he knows without reservation. If you still have concerns and don't want to take risks, Dugu Yin will never force you."

Xiao Lin and the other two did not object when they heard this. After a moment, the strong man named Wen said, "I have waited a hundred years to explore the Lost City. Brother Dugu has made all the necessary preparations. I will definitely participate."

"Xiu Gu is also willing to accompany Brother Dugu. I am already very grateful that Brother Dugu thought of me." After thinking for a while, Zhu Xiu Gu also expressed her willingness to go together.

Dugu Yin set his gaze on Xiao Lin.

"Naturally Xiao Lin is willing to go as well." Xiao Lin had been searching for a super cross-domain teleportation array for a long time. Through Dugu Yin, he knew that the only two super cross-domain teleportation arrays on the Gu Ri Continent were both controlled by Buddhism and Demonism. He and the Buddhism sect were already at loggerheads, and the Demon sect's Saint Ancestor Wu Lin was his mortal enemy. If he let him know of his existence, he would probably take action immediately, and even put dealing with Buddhism behind. By then, he would be in great danger.

Therefore, Xiao Lin was very eager to find the super cross-domain teleportation array. As for Dugu Yin's invitation to him to explore the secrets of the [Sumeru Yin and Yang Realm] together, it was secondary. After all, even if Dugu Yin obtained the Holy Yang Order, there was still a Holy Yin Order that was missing. What's more, the entrance to the [Sumeru Yin and Yang Realm] was controlled by the Great Bodhi Temple, and the chances of entering it quietly were not very great. Moreover, immortal weapons were illusory, and even if they really existed, they would require great opportunity and luck to obtain them. Xiao Lin practiced Taoism in order to continuously improve his own realm, hoping that one day he would be able to ascend to the immortal world and enjoy immortality. No matter how good the immortal weapon was, it was not as important as his own realm.

After everyone decided to go, they no longer hesitated and turned into lights, heading north, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Although the Lone Sun Continent is not as big as the Holy Moon Continent, the group may have to go through several regions to reach the Red Fire Island.

However, all of them are top-level beings in the spiritual world, so the short journey naturally won’t take too much time.

The Lonely Heart Sea is located in the north-central part of the Gu Ri Continent. It is a boundless ocean that occupies half of the land. This half of the land is dozens of times larger than the Beitian Shattered Realm where Xiao Lin ascended to the spiritual world. It can be seen that the size of the Lonely Heart Sea is very astonishing.

There are hundreds of islands of all sizes dotted in the Guxin Sea. Although they are called islands, in fact the top ten islands are all like continents, covering an area of ​​hundreds of thousands to tens of thousands of miles. Moreover, among these islands, there are more than a dozen sects scattered around. Among them, the Chishui Temple is the number one force in the Guxin Sea, and the other dozen or so sects are mostly Buddhist sects, with only two being immortal sects.

In the center of the Lonely Heart Sea is the Red Fire Island, which covers an area of ​​thousands of miles. It is not conspicuous in the boundless Lonely Heart Sea, but it is the most famous place because the Red Fire Island is burning with blazing red divine fire. Mortals cannot survive in such an environment unless they are cultivators of a high level.

Especially in the thousand-mile area in the center of the Red Fire Island, those below the Void Refinement Stage cannot stay there for long. But in the north of the Red Fire Island, there is a sect called the Holy Fire Sect. The Holy Fire Sect is a small sect for cultivating immortals. Around the sect lives a race called the Brown Sky Clan. The people of the Brown Sky Clan are very similar to humans, the only difference is that their bodies are reddish-brown and they are short, with the tallest being no more than five or six feet tall. The Brown Sky Clan is the only mortal race that can survive on the Red Fire Island, but they all live on the periphery of the Red Fire Island, far away from the core of the island.

The main gate of the Holy Fire Sect is located on a peak called Holy Mountain in the north of Chihuo Island. At the foot of the Holy Mountain is the Holy Fire City, a small to medium-sized fairy city. Many cultivators come to Chihuo Island and settle in the Holy Fire City.

Because there is a ferocious beast on the Red Fire Island, called the Red-shelled Turtle, which is extremely cruel and powerful, and can spray red divine fire. Moreover, this ferocious beast usually travels in groups, and it is very difficult to hunt it. The reason why the Red-shelled Turtle is very popular is that many cultivators come from millions of miles away to hunt it, just for the Red Heart Pill in its body. The Red Heart Pill is the main ingredient for refining the best spiritual pill, and it is a top-grade treasure that can stabilize the mind of cultivators when they break through the realm. In addition, the turtle shell and turtle blood of the Red-shelled Turtle are all very rare materials, so it has brought prosperity to the Holy Fire City.

On the holy mountain, palaces of various sizes were built from the waist upwards, and on the top of the mountain, there was an extremely majestic dark red palace, which was the mountain gate of the Holy Fire Sect.

All disciples of the Holy Fire Sect practice fire-related techniques, especially some of the sect's high-level techniques. They need to go to the center of the Red Fire Island within a thousand miles to meditate and practice swallowing fire energy. This method of swallowing fire energy is rather unconventional and is not common in the world of immortal cultivation. Therefore, no sect has attempted to seize the Red Fire Island. This is the reason why the Holy Fire Sect has been able to continue to exist despite its weak strength.

At the end of the Holy Fire Sect's palace, on a red stone chair, sat a woman in a red dress. The woman had fair skin and raised willow-shaped eyebrows, which made her phoenix eyes reveal a bit of spring light. The elders of the Holy Fire Sect below lowered their heads and dared not look directly at her.

No one could have imagined that the leader of the Holy Fire Sect was actually such a beautiful and charming woman.

"Elder Sun, the day of the grand sacrifice will be in three days. Have you already chosen the sacrifice?"

A fifty-year-old man with a goatee below heard this and bowed hastily. He said, "Master, the sacrifice has been selected and I am planning to ask you to review it."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, the woman was stunned for a moment, and then a look of surprise appeared on her pretty face. A flash of fire appeared on her body, and the next moment, she turned into a beam of fire and appeared in front of the door of the hall.

As soon as he stood still, four thick rays of spiritual light descended from the sky and landed at the entrance of the hall. When the spiritual light dissipated, four people appeared.
