Chapter 6848 Flame God Inheritance
Standing on the Divine Flame Altar, Chi Yutong touched her forehead with one finger. A spark of the Heaven Vein Dragon Blaze lit up at her fingertip. Then, Chi Yutong flicked her finger, sending the flame toward the divine pole in the center of the altar.
As the pole caught fire, runes along its surface started to glow, and sacred light spread across the altar.
Millions and millions of experts from the Flame God Sect, whether young or old, male or female, stood on the Divine Flame Altar, feeling their bloodlines ignite. A ball of flame appeared on each of their foreheads.
As these flames burned, they excitedly knelt and kowtowed toward the pole.
Long Chen could sense streams of energy flowing into the divine pole. From it, a dragon-shaped totem gradually manifested, radiating a sacred aura.
The once lifeless Flame God Sect instantly regained vitality. Even the withered trees came back to life.
“The god path’s power! The divine daughter has awakened the totem pole! Our Flame God Sect is once again a god path legacy...!”
Many elders were moved to tears. They had never imagined the Flame God Sect would return to the god path.
Long Chen could tell that Chi Yutong’s power was connected to the totem pole. The pole was now her main weapon.
The experts of the Flame God Sect kept sending their power into the totem pole, which became Chi Yutong’s own strength.
Blessed with the power of god path legacy, Chi Yutong had become someone entirely new.
Long Chen sighed as he watched the sacred aura swirl around her. The god path clearly had its benefits. With all the Flame God Sect’s luck and faith focused on her, Chi Yutong’s power would rise quickly.
Furthermore, no traitors could hide under the light of the totem pole.
Chi Yutong only let Chi Quan take the traitors away and gave up some resources because she didn’t want to kill them herself. Leaving them here would only cause trouble. In the end, Chi Yutong had managed the situation effectively.
She paid a small price to achieve her goal, and most importantly, those resources no longer held much value for the Flame God Sect now that they were switching back to the god path. Long Chen supported her decision.
The divine flame grew increasingly intense. Each person's bloodline power also ignited, revealing new divine flame runes within their bloodlines. It was as if everyone was connected through a formation centered around a totem pole. As their energy fueled the fire's blaze, their individual power expanded accordingly.
Additionally, the laws of the Heavenly Daos started to gather at the top of the totem pole. This was a natural property of the Heaven Vein Dragon Blaze, which could draw the power of heaven and earth. With the activation of the totem pole, everyone in the Flame God Sect had evolved.
Once the ceremony was complete, Chi Yutong and Long Chen just stood there and watched the divine fire burn.
At this moment, someone reminded them, “Divine Daughter, it’s almost time!”
“So fast?”
Chi Yutong and Long Chen were surprised—a whole day had passed without them noticing. Chi Yutong called for Chi Yuluo, but the latter wanted to keep working on her divine flame runes and didn’t join them. After saying that, she even winked at Chi Yutong.
Chi Yutong blushed and glared at this brazen girl, then left with Long Chen.
...
As the Scarlet Blood War Chariot sliced through space, Long Chen gazed blankly out the window at the passing scenery.
“Long Chen, what are you thinking?” Chi Yutong asked curiously.
Even though they had only known each other for a day, a lot had happened. They already felt like close friends, so Chi Yutong was comfortable asking him personal questions.
Long Chen sighed. “Before I came to the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture, Zheng Wenlong told me this was the last pure land in the nine heavens and ten lands. I actually believed him, but he tricked me. How is this a pure land?”
Chi Yutong simply laughed at Long Chen’s complaints about Zheng Wenlong.
She replied, “The outsider devils have invaded everywhere in the nine heavens and ten lands. The Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture is free from them. Doesn’t that make it a pure land?”
“Although there are no outsider devils here, the ‘innerdevils’ cause headaches for us. We can kill each outsider devil we come across, but the inner devils are much more difficult to eradicate,” said Long Chen.
Chi Yutong knew Long Chen was talking about the Deep Earth Sect, as well as those who had betrayed the Flame God Sect. She also lacked a good way to handle such individuals. She hated them deeply but couldn’t bring herself to kill them.
Although letting them leave the Flame God Sect was the best way to handle the situation, it wasn’t fair to the people they had hurt. After all, the traitors had yet to pay for their actions.
“Then what do you think a pure land looks like?” asked Chi Yutong.
Long Chen reminisced about his days in the Spirit race and gave a quick account to Chi Yutong. Chi Yutong was amazed.
“The Spirit race? I definitely want to see them. However, they don’t exist around here. When we hunt devils, we only operate within designated areas. If we venture too far, we will lose the protection of the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture, and our survival will be at risk,” said Chi Yutong.
As they chatted, Long Chen learned that the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture had a karmic luck region. Within it, any extremely powerful devils would be sensed.
Therefore, the outer edges of the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture were ideal for hunting devils. Chi Yutong had a detailed map indicating where the devil races were, their tribe strengths, and their skills.
Thanks to this information, Chi Yutong felt confident enough to employ traps, formations, toxic pills, and other tactics to hunt down half-step double manifestation Divine Sovereigns.
According to her, these devil Divine Sovereigns differed from those Long Chen had encountered before. They were less intelligent and unable to speak. Moreover, their fighting methods and inherited techniques were much weaker.
This fact piqued Long Chen's curiosity.
Did the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture possess an ability to suppress these devils? Or were these devils just innately dumb?
Why would they stay in the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture and let themselves be hunted? Why wouldn’t they leave? There were various suspicious points.
Suddenly, the space in front of them trembled, and a massive gate materialized. Before Long Chen could see inside the gate, he heard a voice that made him roll his eyes in annoyance.
“The Flying Feather Gate’s Zhang Gonggong welcomes the divine daughter!”
Chi Yutong frowned. Gritting her teeth, she suddenly grabbed Long Chen’s hand and walked out like that.
“You!”
When Zhang Gonggong saw Chi Yutong holding Long Chen’s hand, his eyes immediately turned scarlet.
