"I know, it must be the master. The blood the master injected into my body before he left. No wonder I found that I couldn't control my power."
"Also, I can actually vomit water now, but I always feel a warm feeling in my stomach. Could it be that I can vomit fire?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of golden flame appeared from Little Black's mouth.
Instantly, the temperature around Xiao Hei rose sharply, and within a few seconds, the temperature within a radius of 100 meters reached several hundred degrees.
"Ah, what kind of flame is this? It's so hot, so hot!" The four sect leaders were startled and quickly flew more than a hundred meters away.
Even Xiao Hei was startled, and then the golden flames disappeared.
"This, this is the master's flame. The master actually bestowed his divine fire upon me. Haha, long live the master."
Xiao Hei's admiration for Lin Qing reached its peak, but he was still a little puzzled as to how his flames could affect the surrounding environment.
However, the flames released by the master had no heat whatsoever. One could only conclude that the master's control over fire was so superb that he could prevent even the slightest bit of the divine fire's power from leaking out.
Xiao Hei said to the four people in the distance, "Sorry, I just gained these abilities and I'm still getting used to them. Are you all alright?"
Seeing that the flames had disappeared, the four quickly returned to Xiao Hei's side: "It's alright, it's alright. Senior Dragon King is truly powerful, even able to bestow the Samadhi Fire upon you."
"Yes, yes, Senior Dragon King is so kind to you."
Xiao Hei said smugly, "Of course! Oh, right, you said you waited for a year? I slept for a year?" Xiao Hei remembered something, and his expression changed drastically.
"Yes, a year has passed now."
Xiao Hei's figure instantly turned into a golden light and disappeared: "Ah, I forgot, my master also gave me a task. I'm leaving now. Oh no, oh no, I mustn't miss it."
Seeing this, the four looked at each other, wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads:
[I never expected Lord Black Tiger to be stronger than all four of us.]
Yes, in just one year, the Black Tiger, whom we could easily crush, is now able to crush us with ease.
Yes, the most important thing is that he only slept for a year.
Xiao Hei was thinking that Hu Qi's son's banquet hadn't started yet, otherwise Xiao Hei would have trembled all over when he thought of Lin Qing's methods.
It used to take two days to fly from Jianmen to Huqi's territory, but now, in just a few hours, Xiao Hei has already appeared on Huqi's territory.
At this time, Hu Qi and his wife had become beastmen-like beings, with human bodies but covered in white tiger fur.
Its head also resembles a tiger's head, and its wings are tucked behind its back. It is holding a small tiger in the arms of Hu Qi's wife, Hu Niu.

This little tiger was only a few days old. Its eyes were still tightly closed, its whole body was snow-white, and it had a pair of very small wings on its back.
Tiger Qi and Tiger Girl sat in the main position on a huge open space in the cave.
Below were tiger-type demons, as well as a few demons who were on good terms with the tigers. On the side, there were some small demons with human bodies who were serving the animals, keeping an eye on them.
These monsters are different from Hu Qi, of course. They were forcibly transformed into human form, and this is how their lives will be.
Hu Qi and Hu Niu are different; they are cultivating their physical form. As their cultivation deepens, they can gradually transform into real humans.
[Hu Qi, when will the banquet start? We've been waiting for hours.]
"Yeah, yeah, I'm drooling over all the delicious food I used to eat." A powerful pig demon drooled as he looked at the food he used to enjoy.
"We came here with good intentions to attend the banquet, and you've made us wait for so long? What do you mean by this?" said a tiger demon who had some disagreements with Hu Qi.
Hu Qi: "Please be patient, please be patient. I am waiting for a powerful senior who has promised to attend the banquet. Please bear with me until he arrives."
"Oh, that's alright, we'll just wait a little longer."
【Ugh, I'm starving! I hope that senior you mentioned arrives soon!】
[Hmph, what kind of bullshit senior is this, making me wait so long? If you don't give me a straight answer today, don't blame me for causing trouble.] Judging from Hu Mie's appearance, he's clearly here to cause trouble.
Tiger Girl: "Tiger Exterminator, what are you doing? Are you trying to cause trouble at my son's banquet?"
Hu Mie became even angrier: "Hmph, who told you to give birth to this guy's son? I don't even know what's so good about this guy that makes you follow him so devotedly."
Before Hu Qi and Hu Niu could speak, an unusually arrogant voice rang out: "Hu Mie, you dare to slander my master? Do you want to die?"
A golden figure appeared here, and Xiao Hei stood proudly and majestically in the center of the banquet, looking down on all the demons.
"Who is this? How dare you speak to me like that?" Hu Mie immediately stood up and glared angrily at Xiao Hei in the arena.
Upon closer inspection, he immediately said with disdain:
"Hey, isn't this Black Tiger? What's this? You've dyed your fur golden, and you even have an owner? When did you become a human's lackey?"
Tiger Girl noticed and exclaimed in surprise, "Ah, Black Tiger, you're Black Tiger! How come your fur has turned golden?"
Little Black: "Hmph, what are you? How dare you talk like that? My golden fur was a gift from my master."
"Boom!" Hu Mie's body smashed through the cave and flew out, then crashed to the ground, his fate unknown.
Where Hu Mie had originally stood, Xiao Hei's figure appeared, and the phantom of Xiao Hei in the center of the arena slowly disappeared.
"Hiss!" All the demons gasped in shock. They hadn't even seen how Xiao Hei had sent Hu Mie flying.
You should know that Hu Mie is the strongest monster here. Even Hu Qi, who hadn't cultivated any secret techniques before, wasn't as strong as him.
However, now that Hu Qi has mastered his secret technique, we'll have to fight him to see how strong he really is.
Hu Qi's expression changed drastically. He thought Xiao Hei had also come to cause trouble, and he immediately looked at him warily.
Xiao Hei said calmly, "There's a happy occasion today, so no one should have died. You're lucky."
Tiger Girl, however, wasn't worried at all and said, "Little Black, where is your master? Didn't Senior Dragon King say he would come to my son's banquet?"
The once arrogant Xiao Hei, upon hearing this, immediately smiled broadly and said, "Oh, Sister Hu Niu, Master had something to do and went to the Southern Region. He asked me to attend in his place."
"Here, this is a gift from the master to the little guy." With that, Xiao Hei opened its mouth and spat out the hundred-year-old orb of light.
Xiao Hei will kill its master's enemies without hesitation, but it will act differently towards its master's friends or acquaintances (demons).
Tiger Girl: "Ah, it's important that Senior Dragon King's matter is so important. It's great that you could come, and you even brought such a big gift. But what if the little one eats it?"
Xiao Hei: "It's alright, there won't be any discomfort. If it can't be refined, it will remain in the little guy's body. You can use your spiritual power every day to help refine it."
"In this way, the little guy's cultivation will advance exceptionally quickly, and his talent will become even stronger."
Tiger Girl's face lit up with joy upon hearing this: "Haha, thank you so much! Our little one is so lucky! Husband, say something, are you stupid?"
"Ah, oh, thank you so much, Brother Black Tiger! Thank you so much, Senior Dragon King, for such a generous gift!" Only then did Hu Qi come to his senses and quickly expressed his gratitude!
Xiao Hei grinned, showing off his white teeth. He was incredibly happy; Hu Qi, who used to suffocate him, was now so fierce.
One person was severely injured by my single move, while the other treated me with utmost courtesy. Just thinking about it makes me feel great.
At this moment, several single tigresses at the banquet, looking at the majestic and domineering Little Black, suddenly felt their hearts flutter with spring fever (or perhaps a touch of ecstasy?).
Meanwhile, in the Southern Region.
Lin Qing has been constantly traveling in the Southern Region over the past year, and has now cleared more than 90% of the territory.
Lin Qing's solution was simple: he blew air into an area to disperse the demonic energy in the air, and then let the sunlight shine in.
The corpse demons within this area will perish in a short time, but the demonic energy has already seeped into the soil. Only by exposing it to sunlight for an hour can the demonic energy be prevented from recovering in a short period of time.
And so, a year has passed. Now, more than 90 percent of the land is free of corpse demons, and the demonic energy is gone, hidden only underground.
There's no other way but to clean up the southern region first, since these cleaned areas are exposed to sunlight.
The erosion by demonic energy is very slow; it is estimated that it will take several years to penetrate the ground.
More than twenty days later, the demonic energy in the last area was also cleared away, and not a single corpse demon was left. Of course, Lin Qing didn't know if any of them were underground.
Lin Qing spent some time arriving at the center of the Southern Region, which was the teleportation array connecting to the Demon Realm.
Of course, the teleportation array had already been destroyed by Lin Qing. This time, he came here to solve the problem of demonic energy underground in this southern region.
Over the course of more than a year, Lin Qing left behind an array wherever he cleared an area, and now these arrays have linked the entire Southern Region together.
The formation is an ordinary formation; the Spirit Fire Formation is a formation that can release flames.
Lin Qing left a trace of Samadhi True Fire in these spirit fire arrays, giving them a trace of divine power so that they could burn away demonic energy and not be extinguished by it.
As for why he didn't use the Samadhi True Fire, Lin Qing said that he didn't have the ability to set the entire Southern Region ablaze with the Samadhi True Fire.
Chapter 274 Tang San and Dugu Bo (Please subscribe, vote for monthly tickets, and recommend this book)
Of course, it wasn't that Lin Qing truly lacked the ability, but he was afraid he wouldn't be able to control the Samadhi Fire, and if it spread outwards, then everything would be over.
Lin Qing made a hand seal and shouted, "Activate!"
Instantly, countless spirit fire arrays in the Southern Region began to activate, one after another connecting to the other, traversing the entire Southern Region, and finally all the spirit fire arrays formed a super-large spirit fire array.
"Boom!" Instantly, flames erupted throughout the entire southern region, carrying a trace of the power of the Samadhi Divine Fire.
If you looked down from the sky, the entire southern region was ablaze, with flames rising thousands of meters high, a truly magnificent sight.
When the Southern Region burned, everyone on the entire continent knew, because the flames of the Southern Region dyed the entire sky red.
The top powers in the Central Region, Northern Region, Eastern Region, and Western Region all learned of the news from the Southern Region immediately.
Countless people began to travel to the Southern Region. According to the records of the Overlord Sect, "On May 10, 58888, divine fire descended from the sky, igniting the Southern Region and purifying the dead zone destroyed by the demons."
"On May 10th of the year 58988, the divine fire was extinguished overnight, and the Southern Region was reduced to scorched earth. There was indeed not a trace of demonic energy left."
Lin Qing realized that there must be a corpse demon hiding in the shadows or underground that hadn't been killed by the sunlight because he hadn't completed the third side quest.
However, since the fire was already raging, Lin Qing didn't care much anymore; completing the mission was only a matter of time.
As for whether there will be any humans or demons in the Southern Region, Lin Qing had already come up with a solution.
One hundred telepathic messages were left in each area. As long as a person or demon enters, it will be triggered, conveying Lin Qing's aura and words.
Even so, there are still people around. Lin Qing can only say you deserve it!
Lin Qing estimated that it would take about a year to burn. Looking at this fiery inferno, he figured that no one would be able to find this place.
He found a cave at random, set up a barrier to isolate the flames, modified the cave a bit, and then lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Anyway, Lin Qing is getting sleepier and sleepier, and he doesn't know why. Could it be because of his bloodline?
