The Alternative Way of Enlightenment

Chapter 44 Farewell to the Saint of Yaochi
There were no good things left in the ancient temple, so Liu Shan and his companion followed the method recorded by their grandmaster, the fourth generation Yuan Tianshi, and walked out of the pine forest.

When they arrived outside the pine forest, they saw that there were three more people waiting there, namely, Holy Son Yaoguang, Holy Daughter Yaoguang, and Holy Daughter Yaochi.

The three people at this time were not covered by divine light as in the past, but their figures were revealed, but their faces were still covered by magic power.

Seeing Liu Shan and the other person coming out, the Holy Maiden of Yao Chi, who originally wanted to greet them, recognized Liu Shan.

Liu Shan only felt a pair of sharp gazes staring at him. Liu Shan showed a wry smile. He didn't expect to meet them again so soon.

Yao Xi, the Saint of Yaoguang, seemed to sense something, and her curious gaze shifted back and forth between Liu Shan and the Saint of Yaochi.

The Holy Son Yaoguang also looked at Liu Shan, and then seemed to sense something, frowning and said to Liu Shan: "Does the Taoist priest seem to have something very dangerous on him?"

Liu Shan knew that he had sensed the green jade turtle. He just smiled and shook his head.

When Saint Yaoguang saw Liu Shan shaking his head, he knew that he had been presumptuous, and then he smiled apologetically and stopped asking.

After hearing the questions from Saint Yaoguang, Saint Maiden Yao Chi and Saint Maiden Yaoguang also looked at Liu Shan carefully. They seemed to sense the Green Jade Turtle from him. Their eyes were solemn and their brows were slightly frowned. However, Liu Shan had already shaken his head to refuse, so they did not say or ask more questions.

Ye Fan didn't expect that the green jade turtle that Liu Shan had picked up before was really a powerful treasure that could actually scare the Holy Son Yaoguang.

The old knife holder then stepped forward and asked Liu Shan, "I wonder if you two can find any way to get the Taichu ancient mine from the pine forest?"

Ye Fan shook his head. "There are only some dilapidated ancient temples inside. The immortal gold and divine materials in the ancient temples have lost their divinity."

After saying that, he took out the broken Fairy Tear Green Gold. The broken Fairy Tear Green Gold was passed around in everyone's hands, and everyone sighed that it was a pity.

Since they had not found a way out, they had no choice but to set out again. After walking for an unknown amount of time, they suddenly heard light footsteps behind them.

Everyone was shocked and turned around to look. They saw a delicate and pretty child jumping and skipping behind them.

Seeing everyone turning around to look at him, he looked at them curiously, with a harmless look on his face.

After seeing the child, everyone quickly took a defensive stance. After Liu Shan saw the child, he immediately summoned the Lihuo Divine Furnace in his body.

An inch-sized Lihuo Divine Furnace flew out of his body, and in an instant the crystal clear little object turned into a crystal furnace more than ten meters in size. The huge crystal furnace smashed towards the harmless child like a small mountain.

Everyone was surprised at Liu Shan's decisiveness, although everyone knew that there would definitely be no children in the Taichu Ancient Mine.

Because the Taichu Ancient Mine is so dangerous, everyone has gone through life and death to get here. It is absolutely impossible for a child to survive safely, and he followed when everyone was unaware and looked at everyone innocently.

But the person on the other side was a little kid after all, so everyone was still a little hesitant and couldn't bear to take action directly.

When the child on the opposite side saw the crystal furnace coming, it immediately broke free of its skin, and from the child's body grew a five-meter-tall monster covered with bone spurs and a hideous face.

This monster lost its previous cute appearance. It directly crashed into the Lihuo Divine Furnace with its flesh body, and the Lihuo Divine Furnace, which was more than ten meters high, was instantly knocked away by it.

At this time, the attacks from the others also arrived. No one held back, and each used his or her strongest secret technique.

The Holy Son Yaoguang used the Holy Light Technique, and his whole body was like the sun, emitting golden light. Then he smashed the monster with his fist covered by the holy light.

Looking at the gentle Saint Yaoguang, his moves were so simple and domineering.

Saint Yaoguang also used the Holy Light Technique, but she gathered a super large ball of light and smashed it at the monster.

The Holy Maiden of Yao Chi sacrificed a small green tower, which quickly grew larger, flew high into the sky, and then fell rapidly from the sky to suppress the monster.

When Liu Shan saw the small green tower, he realized that it should be a replica of the West Emperor Tower. It should have a portion of fairy tear green gold added to it, right?
It was not convenient for Ye Fan to directly sacrifice the Cauldron of the Mother Energy of All Things in front of others, so he could only use the Mountain-Holding Seal to gather a mountain of divine power and then smash it at the monster.

Except for the Holy Son Yaoguang who was fighting the monster in close combat, the rest of the people were using long-range attacks to help him share the pressure.

After attacking for a while, Liu Shan saw that everyone's attacks seemed to have limited damage to the monster, so he said to everyone around him: "This is not a solution. I have a way to deal with it, but my magic power is not enough. Please help me put this monster into my magic furnace. I have a way to burn it to death."

The others did not hesitate and used their divine power to help Liu Shan. With the help of so many people, Liu Shan directly controlled the Lihuo Divine Furnace. A strong suction force immediately came out of the mouth of the Lihuo Divine Furnace, like a black hole. The monster had no way to resist this suction force and was sucked into the Lihuo Divine Furnace step by step.

The moment the monster was sucked into the Lihuo Divine Furnace, the crystal lid of the Lihuo Divine Furnace closed instantly. The sun and several divine bird marks on the Lihuo Divine Furnace also began to shine brightly, transformed into divine forms, and flew from the Lihuo Divine Furnace into the furnace.

Liu Shan quickly controlled the Lihuo Divine Furnace and used the colorful cloud flames from the Fire Domain that had been stored before to wrap the monster. The divine bird and the sun also merged into the colorful cloud flames to help refine the monster.

The monster that was so brutal and invincible just now did not have the slightest resistance in front of the gentle colorful flames. It could only roar and scream in despair, and was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Liu Shan quickly recalled the Lihuo Divine Furnace, put it into his body, and pretended that all the energy was exhausted.

Everyone was looking at this terrifying divine furnace, marveling at its power. Only Ye Fan was marveling at the power of the five-colored cloud flame. He knew that the flame that had just burned the monster to death was not from the divine furnace itself, but from the five-colored cloud flame of the Fire Domain.

It is also in his Cauldron of the Mother Energy of All Things, but his Cauldron of the Mother Energy of All Things is made from the essence of Xuan Huang and cannot be taken out in front of everyone.

Seeing the five-colored flames so powerful, Ye Fan was very excited. He thought that if he encountered danger in the future, he could also use this trick to burn the enemy to death directly. It was too domineering.

The monster had been burned to death. The old knife handle asked Liu Shan, "Are you okay? Can you keep going?"

Liu Shan nodded, continued to pretend to be exhausted, and did not answer.

Then he continued: "Let's leave quickly. This monster might just be a pawn here to explore the way. If we wait too long, there might be more terrifying monsters coming."

Everyone was shocked and didn't dare to delay any longer, so they immediately ran in another direction.

Liu Shan and Ye Fan stopped while running. It turned out that they were also using the Source Heavenly Eye to explore the way while running. But even with the Source Heavenly Eye, they still stepped into danger unknowingly.

"Don't run, we have arrived at another Jedi Red Moon Cave." Ye Fan said to everyone.

"A blood-stained crescent moon, so yin and so gentle." Yao Xi, the Saint Maiden of Yaoguang, said in horror after taking a look at it with her spiritual sense.

"This is a demonic land. The blood moon on the ground echoes the bright moon in the sky, attracting the moonlight from the sky and covering this place with blood. Then, it creates an endless murderous intent that destroys all creatures that come in."

“It seems that…” Li Desheng, who had been just standing by, began to speak tremblingly.

"There is a blood moon above the ground and a devil's cave underground. Stop looking at it," Ye Fan said to Li Desheng.

Liu Shan began to look around curiously, he was looking for Fallen Sun Ridge.

The Origin Heavenly Book records that the Fallen Sun Ridge and the Red Moon Cave coexist with each other and are equally famous. One alone is a desperate place where one is almost certain to die, and the two together are a desperate place where one is absolutely certain to die.

But the Fallen Sun Ridge here is an exception. It was used by Emperor Hengyu to refine the Hengyu Furnace, and it forcibly absorbed most of the energy. In the end, when the Hengyu Furnace was completed, most of the Fallen Sun Ridge was also destroyed.

Liu Shan was searching alone, which was a bit too slow, so he said to Ye Fan: "Please help us find the Fallen Sun Ridge that is associated with the Red Moon Cave.

After a while, Ye Fan said to Liu Shan: "There is the Fallen Sun Ridge over there, but it's a little strange. The Yang energy in the Fallen Sun Ridge is very little. Judging from the terrain, it is not enough to fight against the Red Moon Cave."

Liu Shan began to sense the direction Ye Fan was pointing. Sure enough, there was a black sun, extremely yang, extremely strong, extremely evil, and extremely powerful, like the mark of the sun on the human world. However, its yang energy was obviously insufficient, and it was at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the yin energy of the Red Moon Cave.

When Saint Son Yaoguang, Saint Daughter Yaoguang and Saint Daughter Yaochi heard Ye Fan mention Fallen Sun Ridge, they all exclaimed in surprise.

"Fallen Sun Ridge? Could it be the place where Emperor Hengyu trained his weapons as rumored?"

After hearing the three people's exclamations, the old knife handle also asked in surprise: "Where did the Jiang family emperor refine the extreme imperial weapon?"

Liu Shan said, "Emperor Hengyu has refined the ultimate imperial weapon Hengyu Furnace at the Fallen Sun Ridge here. He has destroyed the terrain of the Fallen Sun Ridge here! Therefore, the Yang energy of the Fallen Sun Ridge here is not enough to fight against the Yin energy of the Red Moon Cave. As long as we go to the half-abandoned Fallen Sun Ridge, we will definitely find a way to escape from the Taichu Ancient Mine."

After hearing this, the others all thought it made sense, so they all started moving towards the sun mark that they were sensing.
