I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 571 Master and Servant Meet
Above the vast South China Sea, a large black bird flapped its wings and soared like a black lightning bolt.

"Master, the Minyan Continent is just ahead!"

A slight spatial distortion rippled on the back of the large black bird, and then a woman stepped out. She bowed and reported to Xia Daoming, who was sitting cross-legged on the bird's back with his eyes closed, her eyes full of awe.

This woman was none other than Rong Yuan.

"It only took a month, that's great!"

Xia Daoming slowly opened his eyes and nodded approvingly at Rong Yuan.

The journey was long and arduous. If it weren't for Rongyuan leading the way, we would have taken many detours and wasted a lot of time.

"Master's magic weapon is powerful; otherwise, even if this servant were very familiar with the roads, I wouldn't have been able to reach the Minyan Continent so quickly," Rong Yuan said modestly, not daring to take credit.

Xia Daoming smiled and was about to speak when he suddenly sensed a familiar aura.

However, his breathing was somewhat disordered and weak.

Xia Daoming's expression changed slightly. Before Rong Yuan could recover, the giant bird transformed from the Ten Thousand Ghost Banner had already flown off in the southwest direction.

When she came to her senses, she realized that she could no longer control the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner.

The large black bird flew to the airspace above a reef island in the blink of an eye and circled over it.

Inside a cave on the reef island, Ji Wufeng, with a sallow face and disheveled hair, was trying his best to conceal his aura, not daring to be careless in the slightest. At the same time, his divine sense, like tentacles, carefully probed his surroundings, constantly observing the situation, especially the movements in the direction of the Cold Nether Mountains of the Minyan Continent.

Suddenly, Ji Wufeng looked up sharply.

Then, his face lit up with ecstasy, and he leaped into the air, releasing his restrained aura without any restraint.

"Greetings, sir!"

Ji Wufeng leaped onto the back of the large black bird and knelt on one knee.

"You're injured?" Xia Daoming's eyes narrowed slightly.

"My injuries are not serious, but the real fire is a problem. More than a month ago, an inspector from Nanzhen Jishan suddenly came with a group of people and asked me and a group of cultivators to help her explore the bottom of the lava lake and collect the real fire."

The old servant knew that once he entered the bottom of the lava lake, regardless of whether he succeeded or not, his chances of survival were slim, and he would be unable to leave a message for his master. Therefore, he made the decision to flee Hanyou Mountain without hesitation.

After that, I only dared to linger in the seas near the Minyan Continent, keeping a close eye on the situation at Hanyou Mountain. I have no idea what the situation is there now, but I can roughly deduce from what I have seen from afar that the true fire has not yet been taken away.

The inspector was a Fifth Tribulation Dissolution cultivator, accompanied by more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators, all of whom were Second Tribulation Third Stage cultivators. "If you wish to go, sir, you must…"

“You did very well. There’s no rush with the matter of the True Fire. Your injuries are quite severe, and if you delay any longer, it may damage your foundation. I have a Changqing Xuanling Pill here, which Elder Ji recently refined. It has good effects. Take it now to heal your injuries.”

Xia Daoming interrupted Ji Wufeng and took out a pill bottle, which floated towards him.

"Thank you, sir!"

Ji Wufeng held the elixir bottle with both hands.

Seeing this, Rong Yuan's gaze towards Xia Daoming changed.

Just then, two beams of light streaked across the sky from afar.

Even from a distance, Bao Guang split into two directions, flanking Xia Daoming and his group from the front and back.

When Ji Wufeng saw two beams of light streaking towards him, he seemed to have expected it. Instead of being surprised, he showed a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"Are they the ones who hurt you?" Xia Daoming asked, his eyes turning slightly cold.

"Reporting to Master, after I was injured by the patrol envoy that day, I fled from Cold Nether Mountain and found a place to hide in order to observe from nearby. However, I did not expect that the patrol envoy had cultivators who were skilled in tracking, and I was quickly discovered by them. During the chase, I was injured by them many times. Fortunately, Master and Mistress have treated me kindly and rewarded me with many healing medicines, which is why I have been able to hold on until now," Ji Wufeng replied.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Xia Daoming reached out and patted Ji Wufeng on the shoulder upon hearing this.

He knew that Ji Wufeng could have simply left, but the reason he risked being discovered and hunted down was to remain hidden around the Minyan Continent in order to obtain information about the whereabouts of the True Fire as soon as possible.

"I owe everything I have today to you, Master. There is no hardship to speak of! Moreover, this is also a test of my Dao heart!" Ji Wufeng said frankly.

"Good!" Xia Daoming was moved upon hearing this, and his gaze toward Ji Wufeng was full of admiration.

Soon, two beams of light descended upon Xia Daoming and his companions, one after the other, revealing a man and a woman.

"No wonder they didn't run this time. It turns out they had accomplices. One was in the first calamity, and the other was in the second. They certainly had the right not to run."

The woman's gaze swept over Xia Daoming and Rong Yuan with a haughty look, a mocking sneer curling at the corner of her lips.

This woman was clearly a Nascent Soul cultivator who had survived two tribulations in her physical body, and was obviously a person of extraordinary talent.

The man was a second-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who had undergone the Tribulation of Military Decomposition.

"But if you had escaped earlier, you might have had a chance, but now it's too late," the woman continued with a cold laugh.

Before she could finish speaking, two more beams of light shot into the sky from the direction of the Minyan Continent, rapidly heading towards them.

"Wu Feng, do you want me to kill them directly, or capture them and hand them over to you to deal with?" Xia Daoming seemed not to hear the woman's words, nor did he see the two beams of light approaching from afar. He looked at Ji Wu Feng and asked indifferently.

"I've seen arrogant people, but I've never seen anyone as arrogant as you! A mere cultivator at the first tribulation stage dares to talk about killing us! I'll give you a chance. You make the first move, and I'll see what you're capable of to dare to utter such arrogant words!" The woman laughed in anger upon hearing this.

"Thank you, sir, but please kill them directly!" Ji Wufeng bowed and said, ignoring the two people and the two beams of light that arrived in the blink of an eye.

"Haha! Even on the verge of death, you still dare to be so arrogant!" The four of them burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Let's talk about this after you're under my banner!" Xia Daoming smiled faintly upon seeing this.

Before he could finish speaking, the large black bird beneath him suddenly opened its beak.

In an instant, boundless darkness, carrying a terrifying chill and a suction force, swept across the heavens and earth, enveloping the four people.

"not good!"

The four never expected that the black bird beneath Xia Daoming's feet would be so powerful. With just one open of its beak, it unleashed such a powerful spell. Their expressions changed drastically, and their bodies burst forth with precious light, surging with magical power that formed a domain law, attempting to break through the darkness that enveloped them.

But darkness engulfed the precious light and domain emanating from them like a tidal wave.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Screams rang out one after another, and then Ji Wufeng and Rong Yuan saw the large bird open its mouth and suck in a cloud of black mist containing four chains, which it swallowed into its beak.

The four chains bound the four people.

As the four were swallowed into the bird's beak, the two felt the bird's back beneath them ripple like the surface of water.

But the ripples quickly subsided, and the two could no longer sense the presence of the four people.

Even though Ji Wufeng and Rong Yuan had long anticipated that Xia Daoming was very powerful, seeing this scene still made their blood boil, but a chill still involuntarily rose up on their backs.

It's so powerful!
　That concludes today's update.
