Immortality Cultivation: I can use my clansmen’s energy and blood to add points.

Just as they were about to reach the stone platform, Elder Bai suddenly opened his eyes and glanced sharply in the direction of Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were shocked, but there was no way back, so they could only bite the bullet and move forward.

Elder Bai stood up slowly, a hint of amusement in his eyes: "I knew you would come back."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other, surprise flashed in their eyes: "How did you know?"

Elder Bai smiled slightly, and his voice echoed in the cave: "Although you have hidden well, the aura of the Flame Secret Book cannot be completely concealed. I have already sensed its existence and am just waiting for you to fall into its trap."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang felt a sinking feeling in their hearts; they knew that it would be difficult for them to escape easily this time.

Qingshuang held Luo Chen's hand tightly, and the two prepared for the upcoming battle.

"In that case, we don't have to hide it anymore." Luo Chen said in a deep voice, his eyes determined, ready to fight Elder Bai.

The strong man in golden armor beside Elder Bai laughed loudly and said, "If you find the things, I can still let you live. Otherwise, you will die!"

Luo Chen took a deep breath, he knew that this battle was inevitable.

He slowly reached for the Blood Blade at his waist. A cold murderous aura emanated from the blade, forming a sharp contrast with the heat in the cave.

"Elder Bai, there is no deep hatred between you and me, so why do we have to go to war?" Luo Chen tried to find the last glimmer of chance for a peaceful solution.

Elder Bai shook his head, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "Young man, you don't understand. In this world of immortal cultivation, treasures are power, and power is everything. The Flame Secret Book that you hid is of extraordinary significance to me."

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that they had no choice but to fight.

Luo Chen tightly grasped the Blood Blade, while Qingshuang began to cast spells, preparing for the upcoming battle.

Seeing this, the sturdy man in golden armor roared, waved the magic weapon in his hand, and rushed towards Luo Chen first.

Luo Chen dodged the attack of the sturdy man in golden armor, and at the same time, the Blood Blade drew a bloody arc, going straight to the opponent's vital point.

Qingshuang cast a spell in the back, and waves of cold air surged out from her hands, competing with the heat in the cave, forming a strange scene.

Elder Bai smiled slightly upon seeing this. He did not rush to take action, but quietly observed the fight between Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.

Luo Chen fought with the sturdy man in golden armor for several rounds. Although the opponent was strong, Luo Chen always had the upper hand with his flexible body and the sharpness of the Blood Blade.

Qingshuang's magic gradually took effect, and the movements of the strong man in golden armor began to become slow.

Seeing this, Elder Bai finally decided to take action himself.

He waved his hand lightly, and an invisible force dissolved Qingshuang's spell.

Luo Chen was shocked when he saw this, he knew that Elder Bai's strength far exceeded his and Qingshuang's.

“Young people, you have tried your best, but you are still too young.” There was a hint of regret in Elder Bai’s voice.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang knew that they had to give it their all.

Luo Chen shouted loudly, and a dazzling red light burst out from the Blood Blade. A powerful force surged out from the blade and rushed straight towards Elder Bai.

Elder Bai saw this and a hint of approval flashed in his eyes: "Yes, your Blood Blade does have some skills."

He waved his hand lightly, and an even more powerful force came to meet Luo Chen's attack.

The two forces collided in the air, causing a deafening roar.

The rocks in the cave began to fall, and the whole cave seemed to be shaking.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were repelled by this force. They knew that if they continued like this, they would not be able to withstand Elder Bai's power.

"Qingshuang, we have to use that trick." Luo Chen whispered to Qingshuang.

Qingshuang nodded. She knew that the trick Luo Chen mentioned was their last hope.

The two began to concentrate and gather all their strength together.

Elder Bai saw this and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Oh? It seems you still have some secrets."

Dazzling light began to emanate from Luo Chen and Qing Shuang's bodies, and their strength was increasing rapidly.

Seeing this, Elder Bai finally decided not to hold back anymore and began to cast his most powerful spell.

The air in the cave seemed to freeze. All the cultivators held their breath and watched this contest of power nervously.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang's joint attack was finally completed, and a huge beam of light burst out from them and rushed straight towards Elder Bai.

Elder Bai's spell was also completed at the same time, and an even larger energy wave attacked Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.

The two forces met in the air, bursting out with unprecedented light.

The entire cave was shaking under the impact of this force, as if it would collapse at any time.

Finally, the light dissipated, and the figures of Luo Chen and Qingshuang appeared in front of everyone.

Although they were tired, they still stood.

Elder Bai stood there, with some blood at the corner of his mouth.

From this we can know that Elder Bai suffered serious injuries from the attack just now.

When the sturdy man in golden armor saw this scene, his face changed drastically. He did not expect that these two seemingly ordinary cultivators could actually compete with Elder Bai to this extent.

Elder Bai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, including surprise and admiration.

"You two are indeed not simple." Although Elder Bai's voice was calm, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang could feel the heaviness in it.

Luo Chen took a deep breath. He knew that this was a critical moment. They had to find an opportunity to retrieve the Secret Book of Flame while Elder Bai was injured.

He winked at Qingshuang, who understood and began to quietly cast a spell, preparing to summon the Secret Book of Fire back from its hiding place.

Elder Bai seemed to have sensed their intentions. He waved his arms again, and a powerful force dissolved Qingshuang's spell again.

Seeing this, Luo Chen immediately swung the Blood Blade, and a blood-red light cut through the air and headed straight for Elder Bai.

Elder Bai dodged Luo Chen's attack with a flash, but his movements were obviously slower than before.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang seized this opportunity and launched their strongest attacks at the same time.

The two forces collided in the air again, the rocks in the cave fell down one after another, and the whole space seemed to be shaking.

The sturdy man in golden armor and other cultivators retreated one after another. They had never seen such a fierce battle.

Although Elder Bai was very powerful, he seemed to be struggling under the joint attack of Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.

Just when the battle was getting intense, Qingshuang finally found an opportunity. She quickly summoned the Secret Book of Fire back from its hiding place.

The Secret Book of Flame drew a streak of fire in the air and fell into Qingshuang's hands.

Seeing this, Luo Chen immediately shouted: "Qingshuang, go!"

Qingshuang nodded, she knew that now was not the time to hesitate.

The two men immediately turned around and prepared to escape the cave.

Elder Bai saw this and shouted angrily, trying to stop them.

But Luo Chen and Qingshuang were already prepared. They used Qingshuang's concealment spell and quickly disappeared into the night.

Upon seeing this, the sturdy man in golden armor and other cultivators chased after them, but Luo Chen and Qing Shuang had disappeared without a trace.

Elder Bai stood in the cave, looking at the direction they left, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang rushed in the night. They knew that although they had temporarily escaped from the pursuers, the secret of the Flame Codex had been leaked, and they would face more challenges and dangers in the future.

"What should we do next?" Qingshuang asked. She knew that the emergence of the Secret Book of Flame would cause a huge uproar in the world of immortal cultivation.

Luo Chen pondered for a moment, then said: "Let's find a safe place first and study the Flame Secret Book carefully. Only by understanding the secrets can we better improve our strength."

Qingshuang nodded, she knew Luo Chen was right.

So, they planned to leave the secret realm of Fire Valley first.

The main reason is that there are too many cultivators in the secret realm.

If they are not careful, they might be exposed.

Secret realm.

Especially the advanced secret realm.

It is usually easy to enter, but difficult to leave.

Under the cover of night, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang carefully avoided the immortal cultivators who were searching everywhere in the Fire Valley.

They knew that once discovered, not only would the Secret Codex of Flame fall into the hands of others, but their own safety would also be greatly threatened.

The two traveled through the secret realm, looking for a place where they could temporarily stay.

"We have to find a hidden place and not let anyone find us." Luo Chen whispered, his eyes scanning the surroundings, looking for a possible hiding place.

Qingshuang nodded, she knew that Luo Chen’s worries were not unreasonable.

Once the secret of the Flame Codex is leaked, they will face endless pursuit and danger.

She used her magic to create a fog to hide the two people.

After some searching, they finally found a hidden cave.

The cave is located under a cliff, and its entrance is covered by dense vines, making it difficult to be discovered.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang carefully walked through the vines and entered the cave.

The interior of the cave was spacious and dry, and the walls were inlaid with some glowing minerals, providing them with sufficient light.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang found a relatively safe corner in the cave and sat down to rest.

"Now, we can finally take a breath." Qingshuang said softly. She took out the Secret Book of Fire from her arms and looked through it carefully.

Luo Chen also came over, and they began to study the contents of the Secret Book of Flame.

The secret book records many methods of using the power of fire, as well as some powerful fire spells.

The more they read, the more they felt that this secret book was precious.

"If we can master the spells recorded in this secret book, our strength will be greatly enhanced." Luo Chen's eyes flashed with excitement.

Qingshuang nodded, she knew Luo Chen was right.

However, she also understood that it was not easy to master these spells, and it required a long period of practice and comprehension.

"We have to be careful and not let the secret book fall into the hands of others." Qingshuang reminded. She knew that the temptation of the Secret Book of Fire was enough to drive any cultivator crazy.

Luo Chen nodded, he understood Qingshuang’s concerns.

They decided to take turns to keep watch to ensure the safety of the Flame Book.

Time passed slowly as they practiced and were on guard. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang spent several days in the cave.

They gradually mastered some basic spells in the secret book and their strength improved significantly.

However, the good times did not last long. One night, there was a sudden noise outside the cave.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang immediately became alert, they knew that someone might have discovered their hiding place.

Luo Chen quickly hid the Secret Book of Fire in his arms, and then he and Qingshuang quietly approached the cave entrance to investigate the situation.

Through the gaps in the vines, they saw a group of cultivators holding magical tools and searching outside the cave.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other. They knew that it would be difficult to escape easily this time.

"There's some trouble now."

Luo Chen said in a low voice.

"We have to be careful and not let them discover our whereabouts." Qingshuang said softly, with a hint of determination in her eyes.

Luo Chen nodded, and he drew the Blood Blade from his waist, ready to deal with any possible battle at any time.

The two held their breath and quietly observed the situation outside.

"They don't seem to have discovered us." Luo Chen said in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the cultivators outside.

"But don't let your guard down, they may just be testing you." Qingshuang reminded. Her spells were ready and could be cast at any time.

At this moment, a cultivator seemed to notice something unusual at the entrance of the cave. He signaled to his companions and then slowly walked towards the vines.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang's heartbeats quickened. They knew that once they were discovered, a fierce battle would be inevitable.

"Are you ready?" Luo Chen asked Qingshuang in a low voice.

Qingshuang nodded, a gleam of determination flashing in her eyes.

The immortal cultivator had already walked to the front of the vines. He stretched out his hand to push aside the vines and was about to step into the cave.

Suddenly, a loud noise came from a distance, attracting everyone's attention.

The group of immortal cultivators turned around and rushed towards the source of the sound.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, they knew this was an opportunity.

"Let's go now!" Luo Chen said in a low voice.

The two quickly left the cave and followed a hidden path towards the depths of the secret realm.

They knew that although the depths of the secret realm were filled with dangers, they were also relatively safe because most cultivators would gather near the entrance.

After several days of trekking, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang finally found a relatively safe valley.

There is a clear lake in the valley, surrounded by dense woods, which is an ideal hiding place.

"Let's settle down here temporarily." Luo Chen said, looking around to make sure there was no danger.

Qingshuang nodded, and she began to set up a defensive magic circle in the valley just in case.

Luo Chen sat down by the lake and began to practice the spells in the secret book.

He closed his eyes, feeling the power of fire flowing through his body, gradually merging into one with it.

After Qingshuang finished setting up the magic circle, she sat next to Luo Chen. She took out the Secret Book of Fire and continued to study its contents.

"Luo Chen, look here." Qing Shuang pointed to a passage on the secret book and said, "It seems to record a method of cultivation that can enhance the power of fire." (End of this chapter)
