The most secure job in Dajin

Chapter 391, Fire Axe

Chu Junshan's question about whether Hua Changxi was the Lord of Lingguang Palace was not a random guess.

First, the revival of the Dan Sheng Palace, the appearance of the Star Gazing Tower and the Xuanyuan Mansion are almost all directly related to Hua Changxi. Now that she is involved with the Lingguang Palace, it is not surprising at all.

Secondly, Hua Changxi is also a fire spirit root cultivator who practices fire-based magic, but his strength has always been a mystery.

Thirdly, such a major event occurred in Nanxiang County, yet the Palace Master of Lingguang Palace has not shown up, which has puzzled everyone. However, if Hua Changxi is indeed the Palace Master of Lingguang Palace, and she is trapped in this blessed land, then the reason for her absence is quite clear.

"Chu Junshan, are you out of your mind?"

Zhu Yan was reluctant to believe that the red-clad female cultivator opposite him was the Palace Master of Lingguang Palace, and loudly questioned Chu Junshan.

Chu Junshan wasn't very confident either, and looked at Zhu Yan: "When did you come in?"

Zhu Yan: "September 20th."

Chu Junshan: "September 20th of which year?"

The question made Zhu Yan pause for a moment, and he finally spoke: "Yongxing 28 years ago."

Chu Junshan: "The day I entered this blessed land was the 8th day of the 8th month of the 32nd year of Yongxing."

Upon hearing this, both Zhu Yan and Hua Changxi's expressions changed.

After entering Zhu Rong's Tomb, neither of them really noticed the passage of time, never imagining that four years had already passed.

Ignoring Zhu Yan's astonishment, Chu Junshan spoke again: "Where is Hua Changxi? Did she come in before or after you?"

Zhu Yan: "After me, but it shouldn't be too long later."

Chu Junshan's gaze turned to Hua Changxi again, his expression now very certain: "The Vermilion Bird Army lost contact with the Lord of Lingguang Palace at the end of September in the 28th year of Yongxing, which coincides with the time you entered this blessed land. Isn't that too much of a coincidence?"

He paused, then said with certainty, "Hua Changxi, you are the Lord of Lingguang Palace!"

Zhu Yan was still somewhat incredulous and looked at Hua Changxi as if seeking confirmation, hoping she would deny it.

Unfortunately, Hua Changxi still did not respond.

Zhu Yan couldn't stand this ambiguous situation any longer, and instantly snapped, "Are you the Palace Master of Lingguang Palace? Speak up, are you mute?"

Hua Changxi couldn't be bothered with Zhu Yan's rage; at this moment, her mind was preoccupied with the passage of time.

She hadn't expected time to pass so quickly. After entering Zhu Rong's Tomb, she felt like she hadn't accomplished anything yet, and four years had already gone by.

Chu Junshan, disapproving of Zhu Yan's angry roar, spoke again: "Hua Changxi, do you want to know the current situation of the Vermilion Bird Army? Do you want to know the situation in Nanxiang County?"

These words did indeed catch Hua Changxi's attention.

Hua Changxi was indeed thinking about the Vermilion Bird Army and Nanxiang County. After hesitating for a moment, he used his spiritual power to condense a line of fiery red characters that floated in the air: I do not know the art of sound transmission!

Upon seeing these words, Zhu Yan and Chu Junshan felt as if thousands of grass mud horses were galloping through their hearts.

Sound transmission is a very basic spell, okay?

The inability to transmit sound through divine sense could be due to an unopened spiritual platform, but the inability to transmit sound through spiritual power is equally problematic. Is this person some kind of savage who came from somewhere?

Zhu Yan looked at Chu Junshan with a mixture of amusement and disbelief, his eyes full of questioning: How could someone who doesn't even know how to use telepathy be the Lord of Lingguang Palace?
Chu Junshan was also stunned, and his initial confidence turned into hesitation.

It's understandable that ordinary cultivators don't know how to transmit sound, but it's truly baffling that the Palace Master of Lingguang Palace doesn't know even the most basic sound transmission technique.

However, it seems normal that Hua Changxi is so isolated and out of touch with the world that she doesn't even know how to use telepathy.

Although Hua Changxi was eager to know the current situation of the Vermilion Bird Army and Nanxiang County, she knew she couldn't ask. Asking would be tantamount to admitting that she was the Palace Master of Lingguang Palace. She could only suppress her eagerness, continue to meditate, and adopt an attitude of indifference towards whether Chu Junshan would tell her or not.

Seeing her like this, Chu Junshan became even more uncertain about whether his previous guesses were accurate.

However, being a master of strategic maneuvering, he naturally wouldn't offer himself up to someone to provide answers or pass on information. Since Hua Changxi was showing an attitude of not wanting to know, he turned around and went to explore the space.

After much exploration, he quickly discovered that this space was vast and boundless, and unless one had mastered a spatial teleportation technique, it would be impossible to move an inch inside.

Unfortunately, he had never practiced any supernatural abilities such as spatial teleportation.

However, he can transform into a supernatural being.

Chu Junshan immediately unleashed the divine power of 'Pangu True Body', his body suddenly growing larger and taller, and in an instant, he became a giant who could stand tall and upright.

After transforming into a giant the size of a mountain, Chu Junshan couldn't wait to stroll through the space. One of his steps was equivalent to hundreds of steps for Zhu Yan and Hua Changxi.

At first, Hua Changxi and Zhu Yan were a little nervous, but soon they relaxed.

There's no other reason than that, although Chu Junshan's steps were large, walking in the vast space was still very slow, and his movement speed was not as fast as Zhu Yan's 'Shifting Stars' divine power.

However, before the two could even breathe a sigh of relief, their hearts were in their throats again.

It turned out that Chu Junshan, seeing that the 'Pangu True Body' supernatural power was not very useful in the Chicken Egg Space, used another supernatural power—the Furnace True Body.

By transforming their physical bodies into furnaces, they can absorb and refine various energies within the space to strengthen themselves.

As soon as the 'Furnace True Form' appeared, blood rain and red wind began to fall in the originally chaotic space.

These blood-red rain and crimson winds all swarmed towards Chu Junshan. At this moment, Chu Junshan was like a bottomless black hole, constantly devouring the blood energy, fire-elemental law power, and soul power within the Chicken Egg Space.

If he were anywhere else, he would have quickly absorbed all the energy in the space.

Within the Chicken Space, apart from the area where Chu Junshan was located experiencing some turbulence, the other areas remained completely unaffected.

However, this still greatly shocked Hua Changxi and Zhu Yan.

"How come another fire axe has appeared?"

Zhu Yan stared dumbfounded at the fire axe in front of Chu Junshan. He had always thought that the fire axe was a token of this blessed land, something unique to him.

But now, Chu Junshan also has one in front of him, and it's even bigger than the one in front of him.

Hua Changxi was also taken aback, but he quickly fell into thought.

If the Fire Axe isn't a token of the Lord of Zhurong's Tomb, then it can only be a tool for testing this space.

How did the fire axe come about?
Hua Changxi didn't see how Zhu Yan created the fire axe, but Chu Junshan created the fire axe after using a fire-based divine power.

Fire-based supernatural power.
Hua Changxi's eyes flashed, and with a wave of her right hand, a rapidly spinning flame appeared.

When the Myriad Fires Converge to the Ancestor Divine Power was unleashed, a fiery red meteor shower appeared, a hundred times more powerful than the blood rain and red wind caused by Chu Jun Mountain.

At this moment, the originally chaotic space suddenly became filled with sparks.

Countless sparks converged into a meteor shower, all flying toward Hua Changxi's right hand.

At the same time, a dazzling fire axe appeared in front of Hua Changxi.
