Ye Qing was still able to increase his speed despite being surrounded by the sea of flames. It was as though nothing had happened to him.
The further he went in the sea of fire, the faster Ye Qing became.
Xian Ling'er stood behind him, completely dumbfounded. She didn't expect that Ye Qing had been concealing his strength all this while.
In the first 20,000 miles of the sea of flames, Ye Qing was purely concealing his strength. He only casually released some primordial divine flames to block the path.
When they were nearing the end of the sea of flames, Ye Qing displayed his true strength. The primordial divine flames he released were even more terrifying, causing Xian Ling'er to be dumbfounded.
After sensing Ye Qing's strength, Xian Ling'er's mouth was slightly agape. Her heart was filled with an indescribable shock.
She never expected Ye Qing to have such strength. He had hidden his strength too deeply!
"Hmph, I don't believe that I can't catch up to you!"
Xian Ling'er gritted her teeth. Her body flickered as the might of the Vermilion Bird Divine Flames she released grew even stronger. The deep-blue origin flames completely blocked off the incoming Vermilion Bird Divine Flames.
"Swoosh!"
Xian Ling'er erupted with astonishing speed, wanting to catch up to Ye Qing.
However, to her dismay, she discovered that the distance between her and Ye Qing was increasing.
Xian Ling'er was extremely depressed. No matter what, she was still a powerful existence at the Mysterious Sky Realm. She actually lost to Ye Qing. Her heart was filled with unwillingness.
However, Xian Ling'er didn't think that Ye Qing could last for long. After all, he was only at the sixth level of Celestial Phenomenon and didn't have much origin energy in his body. He wouldn't be able to last for too long. Who knew, he might even need her help in the end.
"Little fellow, I don't believe that you can really walk out of the sea of flames!" Xian Ling'er snorted. Her body flickered as she increased her speed.
In front, Ye Qing was like a gust of wind. Very soon, he arrived at the end of the sea of flames. He was only a hundred meters away from the sea of flames.
As long as Ye Qing was willing, he could leave the sea of flames at any time.
However, Ye Qing did not continue walking. Instead, he stayed where he was with his arms crossed, admiring the scenery in the sea of fire.
Xian Ling 'er was left far behind by Ye Qing. The difference in speed between the two was huge.
In fact, if it wasn't for the sea of fire, Ye Qing might not be faster than Xian Ling 'er.
However, Xian Ling 'er had to resist the influence of the Vermilion Bird Divine Flame, while Ye Qing could devour the Vermilion Bird Divine Flame along the way. The gap between the two of them quickly widened.
Ye Qing took out a cigar from the System Space. Since he had nothing to do, he might as well smoke a cigar and enjoy the scenery.
There was a raging fire all around. After Ye Qing took out his cigar, he lit it up with the surrounding flames and began to smoke.
In the sky, the Vermilion Bird's projection was constantly paying attention to Ye Qing's situation.
At first, the Vermilion Bird's projection thought that Ye Qing couldn't hold on any longer. The temperature of the Vermilion Bird Divine Flame was extremely terrifying in the last hundred meters, so it was reasonable that Ye Qing couldn't hold on any longer.
The Vermilion Bird's projection still felt that it was a pity for Ye Qing. After all, Ye Qing's talent was quite good. It was already very monstrous for him to be able to reach the end of the thirty-thousand-kilometer Vermilion Bird Divine Flame.
The Vermilion Bird's projection believed that as long as Ye Qing's cultivation was a bit stronger, he would definitely be able to come again in the future.
Just as the Vermilion Bird's projection was about to persuade Ye Qing to give up, it suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
The fire was already burning his eyebrows, but Ye Qing still had the mood to stop. It was unknown what was in his mouth, but he still had the mood to enjoy the scenery in the sea of fire. It was as if he didn't realize the danger of the sea of fire at all!
According to the Vermilion Bird's projection's judgment, Ye Qing was trapped in the last hundred meters of the sea of fire. The only thing he could do now was either announce that he gave up, or he might be able to save his life.
Or he could do everything in his power and quickly rush through the last hundred meters, and he might have a chance to succeed.
However, Ye Qing didn't announce that he gave up, nor did he make the final dash. Instead, he stopped. This scene was a bit strange, and no one could understand what Ye Qing was trying to do.
"I say, little guy, why aren't you moving?" The Vermilion Bird's projection couldn't help but ask.
Ye Qing puffed on the cigar in his mouth, a calm and composed expression on his face. He slowly said, "It's nothing, I just stopped to enjoy the scenery. Walk slowly, enjoy it!"
The Vermilion Bird's projection in the sky almost fell to the ground. The shock in its heart was indescribable.
It thought that Ye Qing had encountered some difficulty, but it didn't think that he simply didn't want to move.
But the problem was, what scenery was there to enjoy in the sea of fire?
Also, what was that thing in Ye Qing's mouth? Even the Vermilion Bird's projection didn't know what it was.
"Little guy, if you have the ability to pass this stage, why don't you do it?
Why are you still wasting time?
Hurry up and move! "The Vermilion Bird's projection in the sky urged.
Ye Qing said indifferently, "Haven't you heard of that saying?
Walk slowly, enjoy it!
So, I'm not in a hurry at all. Take it slow. "
The Vermilion Bird's projection was completely speechless. It realized that it was becoming more and more unable to see through the depths of this supreme Dragon Tribe youth. The strength that he displayed was completely different from his cultivation base.
Whoosh!
About an hour later, a blue figure appeared behind Ye Qing. It was Xian Ling 'er, whose entire body was enveloped in the Vermilion Bird's Divine Flames.
When Xian Ling 'er saw Ye Qing, she was instantly given a fright. Her beautiful face paled as if she had seen a ghost.
"You … How are you still alive?" Xian Ling 'er exclaimed.
In Xian Ling 'er's mind, she hadn't seen any trace of Ye Qing along the way. She was guessing that Ye Qing had already been reduced to ashes in the sea of fire.
Xian Ling 'er was still a little disappointed. She mourned for Ye Qing for two minutes. She felt that it was a pity that Ye Qing had died.
Unexpectedly, when Xian Ling 'er was only a hundred meters away from the sea of fire, she saw Ye Qing's figure again.
"Little guy, I didn't mean to bully you. The evil spirit that you turned into shouldn't have come after me. It should have gone after the patriarch of the Vermilion Bird Tribe!" Xian Ling 'er's voice was trembling with fear.
Ye Qing's expression darkened. He took a deep puff of the cigar in his mouth and blew out a smoke ring. "Xian Ling 'er, what nonsense are you spouting?
Who's the evil spirit? "
Xian Ling 'er was taken aback. Her big eyes were filled with confusion.
Xian Ling 'er made her way over to Ye Qing's side. She reached out and touched Ye Qing's cheek. It was warm to the touch, and she was instantly given a fright.
"You … You're really not dead?!" Xian Ling 'er's beautiful face paled. She was extremely shocked.
She had walked through the sea of fire, but she hadn't seen Ye Qing at all. If Ye Qing hadn't been reduced to ashes by the Vermilion Bird Divine Flames, then there was only one explanation. Ye Qing had been walking in front of her this entire time. That was why she hadn't seen Ye Qing!
"Gasp!"
Xian Ling 'er couldn't help but draw a sharp intake of breath after coming to this realization.
"Monster!
You're a monster!
You're even faster than me! "Xian Ling 'er exclaimed.
Ye Qing waved his hand. "It's not that I'm fast, it's that you're too slow. I've been waiting for you for over an hour.
So, do you need help now?
I, Ye Qing, am a kind-hearted person. If you need help, then come and beg me! "
