High Martial World: I Gain Passive Skills Daily-Chapter 150 - 111: Jiang Xue (Double-Length)

Bai Luoyan indeed planned to use the tactic of provocation.

She truly felt uncertain about the Lake Dragon King, who had once again emerged in the Eastern Court after thousands of years.

Chen Kuang beheaded three people in one night and offered them to the Dragon King of the lake, dispersing the storm and garnering significant attention.

Afterwards, a vague news spread—someone saw him referring to the Lake Dragon King as a senior brother, leaving those who thought Chen Kuang was merely a loose cultivator astonished!

This Chen Kuang, who managed to offend several major powers at once, actually has someone supporting him!

Moreover, many Middle Third-Grade Cultivators from sects near Jishao County sensed a fleeting and heart-stopping invisible pressure that night.

Though no one could clearly perceive the Lake Dragon King’s cultivation level, it was roughly confirmed that the Dragon King had broken through to the Upper Three Grades that night! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

A cultivator of the Upper Three Grades, even if newly promoted, was beyond Bai Luoyan’s complete assurance.

Even if she were to use the sect’s treasured artifact, it seemed unlikely to succeed.

Therefore, despite losing face, she had to try to make Chen Kuang leave the Lake Dragon King’s protection.

Only by doing so could she find a chance to kill him!

Unexpectedly, Chen Kuang fell for it so easily... indeed, he’s still too young.

Young people’s arrogance is never a good thing.

Especially for those who are young and exceptionally talented, they mustn’t act too brazenly, knowing that when a tree stands above the forest, the wind will surely destroy it.

Her grandson Bai Fen was similarly proud...

At that time, Bai Fen issued life and death tokens incessantly, fought his way to the forefront of the Canglang Rankings, making countless enemies. If not for her intervention, Bai Fen, after losing to the eighth rank then, even after surviving, still considered challenging again.

The eighth rank on the Canglang Rankings then was Eastern Daoist Monarch "Xuan Yaozi" Yan Taiyi of the Mystic God Daoist Sect.

Yan Taiyi was a kind person with an excellent temperament, rarely taking lives. Despite Bai Fen issuing life and death tokens, he spared Bai Fen’s life.

Bai Luoyan had just left seclusion and almost broke into a cold sweat upon learning this. She quickly stopped Bai Fen, who feeling humiliated, wanted to challenge Yan Taiyi again.

It took her an entire day to convince Bai Fen.

If not, whether victorious or defeated, this battle would be a severe blow to the entire Yihuo Sect.

If Bai Fen failed again, his Dao heart would shatter at best, at worst he would be killed by Yan Taiyi, and Yihuo Sect would lose a genius with the potential to reach Grandmaster.

If Bai Fen won, it would be an even greater disaster!

The factions behind the young geniuses he had killed before could be withstood by Yihuo Sect, but not Yan Taiyi. He was backed by the Mystic God Daoist Sect!

Killing Yan Taiyi would mean offending the entire Mystic God Daoist Sect!

While the Mystic God Daoist Sect esteems morality, they speak morals to strangers, not to enemies...

Once the Mystic God Daoist Sect decides to be hostile to a sect, it would be a true oppression.

By then, not only Bai Fen would die, but the Yihuo Sect would also face destruction!

Bai Luoyan barely made Bai Fen understand that the cultivation realm isn’t just about fighting and killing, but also about human relations. She later placed high hopes on him and cultivated him to Half-Step Grandmaster as expected.

Seeing that he could truly take on a key role in Yihuo Sect, and might push the Yihuo Sect further.

Yet Bai Luoyan didn’t expect that the effort she spent to protect this flame for the Yihuo Sect would unexpectedly be extinguished by some nameless junior years later!

——To be fair, Chen Kuang is somewhat known now, but until the Canglang Rankings’ second update this month spreads, he currently leaves only a shallow impression among the younger generation, far from being famous.

Bai Luoyan naturally felt indignant.

The entire Yihuo Sect wouldn’t be content!

So many years of pouring resources into Bai Fen, only for him to be tripped by a roadside pebble in the end? Ask, how could they accept it?

Without revenge, from now on, Yihuo Sect would become a laughingstock!

On the river surface, the eyes of every Yihuo Sect member reflected the blood-red fire in their hands.

"Boom!"

At Bai Luoyan’s command, the fierce flames instantly flew up, converging toward her. The flames held by the three Sea Breaking Realm Elders were the darkest in color, almost turning black.

The whole river surface was illuminated by the firelight.

At the instant the flames left their bodies, all members of the Yihuo Sect turned pale, some of the weaker ones even coughed up blood directly, and not a few fainted on the spot.

These flames are life fire; losing them would harm their essence.

The "Indestructible Flame," whenever visualized, divides a tiny wisp, existing within the visualizer’s Divine Sense, connected to their life.

Once a person dies, the life fire returns to the main body.

This is the source of Yihuo Sect’s cultivation technique.

Over the years, the "Indestructible Flame" fragmented, serving as the fuel for Yihuo Sect’s gradual growth, while it slowly waned.

But this time, they would reverse the operation, turning fragments into a whole, restoring the "Indestructible Flame" to its prime!

Bai Luoyan took a deep breath, extended her hand, and a small cluster of bright warm yellow flame floated out from her sleeves.

The color of this flame bore no special trait.

Neither the dangerous black nor the blood-red of hatred, it also had no other hues, purely warm yellow, even without layers.
