Prince Black Li’s body wasn’t much weaker than Zhang Ruochen, the Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon, Qi Sheng, and Chi Wansui. In fact, he had become a Saint a few years earlier than them. He was already in the mid-level.
His combat ability was extraordinary. He could easily kill a Saint that was one or two realms higher, let alone someone in his own realm.
However, he wasn’t able to successfully collect a beam of Nanling Dragon Fire and was instead heavily injured.

The prince is here. Hurry and drive back the Nanling Dragon Fire chasing after him.

The Saint Beasts of the Nine Li Palace feared for Prince Black Li’s safety. They all took out their ancient weapons and attacked the 30-foot-long blue fire dragon.


Sizzle, sizzle.
The weapons melted before they could hit the blue fire dragon, melting and dripping onto the ground.
The Nanling Dragon Fire was extremely terrifying. Ancient weapons melted like wax when touching it.
Four ancient weapons destroyed one after another, even the Saint Beasts of the Nine Li Palace grew fearful. They didn’t continue attacking. Each weapon was invaluable. They were heartbroken each time one was destroyed.
Prince White Li couldn’t successfully take a mature Nanling Dragon Fire, but Zhang Ruochen was still shocked.
He failed but survived,
he murmured to himself.
This black cat must have a powerful defensive treasure inside him.

Zhang Ruochen wondered if he should help the cat drive away the Nanling Dragon Fire to make an ally.
Just then, another strangely powerful aura came from the distance. Blinding white light emerged on the horizon and a beautiful white figure walked out. It was a young man in his twenties. He had long white hair, a tall and thin figure, and handsome features. There was a silver paw print on his cheek.
It was Prince White Li, the star of the young Saint Beasts of Nine Li Palace.

Prince White Li is here!


Since Prince White Li is here, he must be able to save Prince Black Li.



…
The Saint Beasts of Nine Li Palace all let out a sigh. They looked at Prince White Li with respect and reverence. Others lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.
Prince White Li’s eyes were cold. He looked up at the sky.
Whoosh!
Extending a slender arm, a white iron ring spun on his wrist. It tinkled like a lovely windchime.
Then the white ring flew out, producing a string of bursts. It hit the blue fire dragon on the waist, cutting the 30-foot-long dragon in half.
Prince White Li stood tall on the ground. Opening his hand, he collected back the white ring. Then he put his arm back behind his back, his expression cold again.

He’d actually scattered a mature Nanling Dragon Fire. His abilities are quite terrifying.

The Saints there were all impressed.

How come such a powerful figure doesn’t go collect some Nanling Dragon Fire?
someone wondered.


A huge cat with dragon scales scoffed.
Prince White Li’s physique is extremely Yin and cold. Why would he collect Nanling Dragon Fire? Even if he wants to collect something, it would be the Extreme Yin Dragon Qi.

Prince Black Li landed on the ground and glanced at Prince White Li. Without saying anything, he swallowed a saint medicine leaf and started healing.
A long cry came from below the volcano.
Chi Wansui flew out from underground, rushing into the sky. A blue fire dragon was tangled around his body. The light it emitted was even brighter than the sun.
Half of his body was burnt. On many parts, the flesh was burned away, revealing the white bone. Only a ring of green light radiated from his head, fending off the Nanling Dragon Fire so that it was unharmed.
Chi Wansui’s skeleton was special. His bones had lines of dragon veins burned into them. Even the Nanling Dragon Fire couldn’t destroy it.
Boom.
Chi Wansui plummeted from the sky and hit the ground. After the loud boom, the land caved in. The surrounding rock melted into liquid. However, the blue dragon fire was still wrapped around him. It hadn’t been extinguished.
He struggled while roaring. Crashing around, Chi Wansui toppled the mountains on Dragon Fire Island. Anyone could see that he was suffering from unimaginable pain.

Even Chi Wansui failed to collect it?




He’s the next highest talent of the royal family, after the Empress. The entire royal family places great hopes in him and have used the best resources to train him since childhood. The Empress even taught him some things personally.


I heard that the royal family used an ancient secret spell to implant the bones of an ancient Saint of the Chi Family into his body. It helps him cultivate his body and comprehend the Saintly Way.


Even the Nanling Dragon Fire can’t burn his bones. It might really be a Supreme Saint’s bones.

…
No one in this world could be spoiled by the heavens. But Chi Wansui was spoiled by the entire First Central Empire. The resources that he enjoyed since childhood were multiple times more than what Zhang Ruochen and the others had. Even a pig would be able to develop a top physique with them.
Chi Wansui also had extraordinary talent. With the accumulation of resources, he naturally became a top figure.
Of the same generation, only Zhang Ruochen, Xue Wuye, and Monk Lidi were a bit stronger than him. Of course, their current achievements were because those three had unimaginable luck and talent, as well as persistent hard work.
The blue dragon fire wrapped around Chi Wansui’s body. Others couldn’t help him at all. If he wanted to live, he had to rely on himself.

A mature Nanling Dragon Fire is too hard to collect. Even Prince Black Li and Chi Wansui failed. How did Zhang Ruochen do it?


He’s the Time and Space Descendant with great fate. We can’t compare to him.



…
Just then, the dragon patterns on Chi Wansui’s bones shone with golden light. It flowed quickly toward his arms.
Boom.
Leaning back, he roared. Horrifying power burst from his arms, tearing apart the blue fire dragon.
He jumped and punched ten times. He shattered the Nanling Dragon Fire in the air into dozens of small sparks.
Rules of Saintly Way pulled the small sparks into Chi Wansui’s Sea of Qi. Then he sat on the ground, arms forming a circle. A ball of dark Holy Qi surged out of his forehead. It transformed into a small Qi flame that enveloped him.
The power that Chi Wansui used to shatter the blue fire dragon has surpassed a Xuanhuang Saint. It must be hidden in his bones.
Zhang Ruochen stored this detail in his mind. If he fought with Chi Wansui later, he’d have to be careful of this trump card so he wasn’t caught off-guard.
Chi Wansui couldn’t collect a mature Nanling Dragon Fire, but he’d gotten dozens of sparks. This was a great achievement too.
But compared to Zhang Ruochen, no matter how many sparks he collected, he could only use it to temper his body and help with his cultivation. He couldn’t release the Nanling Dragon Fire as an attack.
Now, only Qi Sheng and the Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon didn’t have the chance to collect a mature Nanling Dragon Fire.
Between them, Zhang Ruochen thought it was more possible for the Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon. After all, his tribe and the Divine Dragons were just as strong in ancient times.
Plus, a dragon had more advantages in taking Nanling Dragon Fire.
Zhang Ruochen jumped into the volcano. He entered the boiling lava to find Ao Xinyan. She was hiding in a relatively obscure place. When Zhang Ruochen found her, she’d successfully collected a Nanling Dragon Fire spark.
Zhang Ruochen was surprised.
After all, the strong Saint Beasts had all failed and turned to dust. Ao Xinyan was only a First Trial Pre-Saint, but she’d succeeded. This warranted shock.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen, Ao Xinyan was very excited.
Team Leader, you came just in time. Please protect me. I’m going to do my second Pre-Saint Trial.


You should repress your cultivation and do that after we leave Dragon Fire Island. Come with me now.

Zhang Ruochen was about to take Ao Xinyan away, when strong Holy Qi waves came from underground. A heat wave ten times hotter than the lava hit him in the face.

Zhang Ruochen, where are you going?

The Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon’s roar sounded. Then a mass of Nanling Dragon Fire surged out of the lava, rushing toward Zhang Ruochen and Ao Xinyan.

He’d really successfully collected a mature Nanling Dragon Fire.

Zhang Ruochen’s expression changed. Extending a right hand, the seven apertures on his palm opened up. He also attacked with Nanling Dragon Fire.
Boom.
The two bursts clashed. They resolved each other, but the surrounding temperature rose higher and higher. With Ao Xinyan’s cultivation, even the Saint King Dragon Pearl couldn’t protect her. She was about to melt.
Seeing that her situation was bad, Zhang Ruochen used spatial power and grabbed her wrist. He used the Spatial Move and disappeared from the lava.
The next moment, they appeared above the volcano. Ao Xinyan hugged Zhang Ruochen tightly. She still hadn’t recovered from her fear. It had been too dangerous. Any misstep would’ve destroyed her.
Huang Yanchen stood inside an invisibility formation and looked at the distant volcano.
They seem…
she murmured to herself.
Very close.

Blackie sighed.
After all, Zhang Ruochen did something wrong to her.


What?
Huang Yanchen glanced at it.
Blackie had misspoken. It quickly closed its mouth, pretending that it hadn’t heard anything. It continued to control the Fighting Fire God Formation to repress the five Saint Beasts of the Ancient Dragon Mountain.

Zhang Ruochen, you won’t be able to escape.

The Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon rushed out of the volcano, transforming back into his original form.
Just then, a 20-mile-long demonic dragon appeared. It flew in the air, eyes burning with blue fire. It radiated with corrosive and demonic Qi.
Another deafening voice came from underground.
Count me in for killing Zhang Ruochen.

A figure rushed out of the volcano. He had six wings on his back and was covered in Nanling Dragon Fire. It didn’t stop until it flew above Zhang Ruochen. It was Qi Sheng, the Qitian prince.
