I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 613 Invasion
Crimson Fire Crow Mother's expression changed drastically, flames surged, and she shouted, "How dare Xuan Yuan Valley invade us so arrogantly! Aren't they afraid of the Changsun family's wrath? You must go to the Changsun family for help immediately, I'll hold them off for a while!"

"Your son obeys!" The Second Immortal hastily withdrew.

The Crimson Fire Crow Mother quelled her flames and bowed deeply to Xia Daoming, saying, "Thank you for your guidance, fellow immortal. I should be very grateful. However, a powerful enemy has attacked, so I can only delay your service for now. I will come back to express my gratitude after I have defeated the enemy."

"Fellow Immortal Chi Huo, you flatter me. I have already offended you by coming uninvited. Now that we are facing a crisis at Biya Ridge, please do not hesitate to ask if there is anything I can do to help you." Xia Daoming cupped his hands politely, but he was secretly delighted.

The True Fire of the Sun is closely related to the Crimson Fire Crow Mother's cultivation. No matter how profound her understanding of the Dao of Fire is, she might not be willing to part with even a wisp of her own fire. However, if she were to help the Crimson Fire Crow Mother overcome her tribulation this time, it would present a different opportunity.

Seeing Xia Daoming's initiative, Crimson Fire Crow Mother was slightly taken aback, a hint of wariness flashing in her heart. However, she politely declined, saying, "I have always been on good terms with the Changsun family. As long as they come to our aid, Xuanyuan Valley will not dare to act recklessly. I appreciate your kindness, Immortal."

Xia Daoming noticed a slight change in her expression and sighed inwardly. Just as he was about to speak again, he suddenly saw the Second Immortal, who had just left, hurriedly return, looking flustered and even fearful.

"Why are you back again?" The Crimson Fire Raven Mother felt a sense of foreboding when she saw him return.

Sure enough, the Second Immortal said with a mournful expression, "Mother! News has come that Changsun Hao, who accompanied the Inspector General on a campaign against the Green-maned Demon King, was ambushed and killed! The Changsun family is leaderless and in complete chaos!"

"What?" Upon hearing this, the Crimson Fire Crow Mother was shocked, then suddenly woke up and said with a gloomy face, "No wonder Xuan Yuan Valley dared to suddenly raise an army to attack my Azure Crow Ridge. It turns out that they had already learned of this news and knew that the Changsun family was in chaos without a leader and would have no time to care about Azure Crow Ridge!"

"Mother, what should we do now? It is said that the Valley Master of Xuanyuan Valley, Han Yuan Wuxia, has advanced to the Fourth Assembly Realm a few years ago. With his ancestral immortal artifact, the Taiyin Cold Bottle, even a Fifth Assembly True Immortal would not get a good deal in his hands!" The Second Assembly True Immortal said with a worried look.

"Shut up!" the Crimson Fire Crow Mother roared, her flames surging. "Although the Yin True Water in the Yin Cold Bottle is powerful, my Sun True Fire is just the right thing to counter it! Plus, with the Mountain-Protecting Array, the Ten Thousand Crows Array, even without the help of the Changsun family, we are more than capable of contending with it!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Daoming's pupils contracted slightly, and he could hardly believe his ears.

"Taiyin True Water?!"

When he first entered the Immortal Realm, he ordered Xingyi to send people to search for news of True Fire and True Water. Unexpectedly, in just over a year, not only did he find the True Fire of the Sun, but now he has also heard of the location of the True Water of the Moon!
“That’s right, the Taiyin True Water is extremely Yin and cold. Once it’s unleashed, it can freeze thousands of miles. It’s really powerful. But my Taiyang True Fire can break it!” Crimson Fire Crow Mother said in a deep voice.

After saying this, the Crimson Fire Crow Mother pondered for a moment, her eyes flashing, and bowed to Xia Daoming, saying, "Fellow Immortal Xia, you are skilled in the Way of Fire. If you can lend a hand to my Azure Crow Ridge, I am willing to offer two hundred mid-grade immortal stones as a reward!"

Seeing that the Crimson Fire Crow Mother, having lost her backer, had changed her previous refusal and was now actively asking for his help, Xia Daoming did not rush to express his opinion this time. Instead, he asked, "Let's put aside the matter of reward for now. What is the background of Xuan Yuan Valley? And why did you become enemies?"

"Xuanyuan Valley doesn't have any particularly impressive background, but it has always maintained good relations with the Kugu Sect. The Kugu Sect's leader is a Seventh-Level True Immortal, possessing considerable skill and influence."

Our enmity with Xuanyuan Valley is related to the fact that Taiyin True Water and Taiyang True Fire are both of the same innate origin, and are mutually reinforcing and restraining.

I am a descendant of the ancient Fire Crow and Azure Feather Eagle, possessing the bloodline of the Fire Crow and a naturally fiery body. As long as I can refine the True Fire Seed of the Sun into my body, I can gradually replenish the True Fire consumed when using it through cultivation.

Xuan Yuan Valley is different. The Taiyin True Water they use is stored in the immortal artifact Taiyin Cold Bottle. Once used, it is gone, and cannot be replenished through the cultivation of the artifact's owner. However, at the bottom of a cold pool in Xuan Yuan Valley, there is an ancient Moon Well. The well's eye reflects the Taiyin starlight all year round, which can condense wisps of Taiyin True Water, but the process is extremely slow.

Later, Xuanyuan Valley found an evil technique from who knows where. By using the principle of mutual restraint and generation between water and fire, they captured beings born with fire bodies and performed evil rituals in the ancient moon well. This could draw down a large amount of Taiyin starlight and accelerate the condensation of Taiyin True Water.

We, the Azure Feather Fire Crows, possess the bloodline of fire crows and are born with fiery bodies. Compared to other fire-type birds, we have a natural affinity for the true fire of the sun. Therefore, we Azure Feather Fire Crows have become the best sacrificial offerings for Xuan Yuan Valley.

"The Xuan Yuan Valley has been relentlessly hunting down my Azure Feather Fire Crow clan, which I naturally refused to tolerate. This has led to numerous conflicts and wars with them. Once, in a fit of rage, I personally killed Han Yuan Wuxia's eldest son, which deepened the hatred between us!"

Towards the end, the Crimson Crow Mother was both angry and helpless.

"So that's how it is. Then this Xuan Yuan Valley is truly evil and cruel, a place where one is destined to die!" Xia Daoming's face turned cold upon hearing this.

His Purple Mansion had been opened, his divine sense was extremely sharp, and he also possessed the Heavenly Eye Divine Power. Whether what the Crimson Fire Crow Mother said was true or false, it could not escape his perception and the Heavenly Eye Divine Power.

Moreover, he possesses three types of true fire and four types of true water divine weapons within his body. He knows that using these divine weapons in battle and casting spells will consume resources, but because the seeds of true fire and true water are within his body, he can replenish them and continuously strengthen them through cultivation.

However, the true water in the bottle is definitely depleted with each use, and cannot be replenished through cultivation.

“That’s right. However, Xuan Yuan Valley is very powerful and has the Ku Gu Sect backing it up. They don’t provoke powerful forces, and those forces are unwilling to make enemies of them for the sake of unrelated people!” said Crimson Fire Crow Mother.

"Rest assured, Fellow Immortal Crimson Fire, I hate the most vicious demons and evil cultivators who wantonly kill innocent people. I will definitely lend you a hand in this battle!" Xia Daoming said.

"Xia Daoming is truly a righteous gentleman! If you ever need my help in the future, I will do my utmost to assist you!" Upon hearing this, Crimson Fire Crow Mother was both delighted and moved, and bowed deeply to Xia Daoming.

"Fellow Immortal Crimson Fire, you flatter me!" Xia Daoming waved his hand modestly.

The Crimson Crow Mother was moved and was about to say something more when the alarm bell outside rang again, urgent and thunderous!

The Crimson Fire Crow Mother's expression changed drastically. Before she could say anything, she made a hand seal, and fiery clouds rose beneath her feet. Flaming wings sprouted from her back, and she soared out of the palace, standing atop the Flaming Mountain. The fiery feathers behind her burned the sky, like a golden sun rising.

A fierce wind howled in the distance, and eight towering cold waves surged in with overwhelming force, like eight silver dragons tearing through the sky. Hundreds of cultivators stood atop each cold wave, shrouded in frost, their chilling aura biting, freezing everything in their path.

Above a gust of cold air directly opposite the mountain gate, three people stood side by side.

　That concludes today's update.
