The earth trembled violently, and the originally dark night sky suddenly turned red. Countless clouds, like burning flames, moved rapidly and swirled around a certain place. There were also faint sounds of wind and thunder. The scene was magnificent and ever-changing.
Underground, the Mysterious Fire Mirror appeared in Lin Yi's hand, and the ancient flame totem at its core slowly flickered, like a flame burning!
The Nine Heavens Fire Palace Grand Formation slowly unfolded, merging with the momentum of the volcanic eruption.
In the darkness, there seemed to be a silent scream, like anger, like a roar!
boom!
A tremendous roar erupted from the depths of the earth as the volcano erupted, causing the earth to tremble violently. Huge columns of lava burst through all obstacles and shot straight into the sky like giant pillars of fire.
Lin Yi activated the Nine Heavens Fire Palace General Formation to envelop the Xuanhuo Altar above. Taking advantage of the power of the volcanic eruption, he soared straight into the heavens and disappeared in an instant.
Incense Valley was shrouded in a blazing red glow of flames, and everyone stared in horror at the enormous pillar of fire that shot into the sky.
Starting from the center of the pillar of fire, the dark clouds in the sky turned completely fiery red, as if the entire sky had transformed into a burning sea of fire.
Moments later, burning ashes, huge stones, and charred embers fell from the sky, some black, some burning, like a desolate apocalyptic rain!
At the end of that pillar of fire, a furious voice roared incessantly!
………………
Lin Yi appeared on the city wall of Dingnan City. Looking into the distance, the huge and terrifying pillar of fire had disappeared, and the earth gradually calmed down.
However, a huge black hole was still clearly visible in the clouds in the sky, and the clouds around the black hole seemed to have been scorched on one side by the flames, turning a strange golden yellow.
Yu Yangzi of Changsheng Hall, Madam Sanmiao of Hehuan Sect, Jin Ping'er, and others all appeared nearby.
Madam Sanmiao walked towards Lin Yi, her slender waist swaying gently like a willow in a light breeze, her alluring charm captivating.
As she approached, she parted her lips slightly and said, "This must be the opportunity His Majesty has been waiting for these past few days, remaining inactive."
Lin Yi smiled slightly and said, "What do you think?"
Lady Sanmiao's eyes sparkled as she smiled and said, "How could I possibly guess what the King is thinking?"
Lin Yi instructed the crowd, "Everyone, step back. The Southern Frontier is about to become lively."
"yes."
The volcano in Incense Valley erupted, causing a dramatic change in the world. The power was immense, and the eruption could be felt within a radius of a hundred miles.
Several days later, in the gloomy sky of southern Xinjiang, although the huge hole burned open by the scorching lava was no longer visible, a large cloud, reddish-yellow in color, still hung high on the horizon in the direction of Incense Valley, which was very eerie.
Such a tremendous change in the world was already eye-catching, but now that it has occurred in the usually low-key and mysterious Fenxiang Valley, coupled with Fenxiang Valley's status in the righteous path of cultivation, it has attracted even more attention from the world.
Rumors spread like wildfire, with everyone speculating about what had happened in Incense Valley.
There are all sorts of rumors, such as the birth of strange beasts or the soaring of mysterious treasures from the volcano.
In just a few days, many unfamiliar faces began to gather on the once peaceful and desolate southern border. Countless people from open and hidden forces were trying to find out what had happened.
Orthodox sects such as Qingyun Sect and Tianyin Temple successively dispatched disciples to Fenxiang Valley to investigate.
The fierce battle between good and evil at Liubo Mountain in the East Sea gradually cooled down as a result.
On the vast expanse of blue waves, the two giants of the Demonic Sect, Wanrenwang and the Poison God, stood side by side, discussing matters concerning Burning Incense Valley.
"What do you think of this matter, Brother Wan?" the Poison God asked.
Wan Renwang smiled and said, "Senior, are you interested?"
The Poison God chuckled and said, "Brother Wan, aren't you curious?"
Wan Renwang looked troubled and said, "We are here on the orders of the King to set up a plan to restrain the righteous people. How can we give up halfway?"
The Poison God said solemnly, "Nowadays, all the righteous people in the world are withdrawing and heading to the Southern Frontier. I am also worried about the safety of His Majesty. I wonder what Brother Wan thinks?"
After a moment's thought, Wan Renwang said, "In that case, why don't we split up? I'll stay here and hold back the righteous people, while you go to the southern border to provide reinforcements."
“Alright,” the Poison God readily agreed.
After the Wan Du Sect members left, Wan Renwang suddenly sneered and said, "That old monster must have sensed something."
His words seemed to come out of nowhere, but Qinglong, the protector of the Ghost King Sect standing to the side, understood what Wanrenwang meant and nodded, saying, "That's right. Three hundred years ago, when our Ghost King Sect fought to the death with the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, the old monster was the most ruthless and impulsive, always charging ahead."
"Even the great battle with the Qingyun Sect a hundred years ago was strongly advocated by him as the sect leader of the Wandu Sect. It seems that the crushing defeat back then has worn down his spirit, and now he avoids anything that seems amiss."
Wan Renwang shook his head and said, "This is not called wearing down one's spirit, it's called gaining more skill. After that battle, the old monster seemed to have a sudden realization, and his temper changed completely. He began to bide his time. In the past hundred years, apart from our Ghost King Sect, the sect with the fastest growth in strength is the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect."
At the same time, the Poison God, who had already left far away, turned back to look in the direction of Liubo Mountain and also gave a cold smile.
Although he didn't know what the Ghost King Sect was plotting, he sensed something was wrong based on his experience, which is why he took the opportunity to leave.

Chapter 124 The Everlasting Bright Moon
In the dark and deep Changsheng Palace of Kongsang Mountain and Baiyun City, a sigh suddenly came.
With a creak, the door opened, and Lin Yi stepped out. Moonlight, like a light veil, draped over him, yet it conveyed an indescribable loneliness.
Loneliness is like frost, and the chill seeps into the bone marrow.
Cultivating immortality and seeking the Dao is perhaps the riskiest business in all the heavens and myriad realms. It involves spending a lifetime in exchange for even a sliver of hope.
Lin Yi looked up at the bright moon in the sky and thought to himself, "When will I be able to be as majestic as the full moon above me, unchanging through the ages?"
Countless images flashed before his eyes: him on Earth suffering from a serious illness and struggling to fight it; him traveling through time and space, being reborn, and then focusing on cultivation.
