Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7446
Chapter 7360: The God of Beacon Fire
“As the Grand Governor of a Hundred Stars, you must have acquired quite a few treasures and resources during your conquests. Since you insist on relying on yourself, let’s go check out the ‘Beacon Fire Divine Palace’ first,” Li Chaoxi said with a smile.
“By the way, Senior Sister Chaoxi, do you know where the Beacon Fire Divine Palace is?” Li Tianming asked curiously.
“Well…” Li Chaoxi pondered for a moment before replying, “It’s said that in the core area of the Burning Heaven Universe Street, there are several mysterious buildings, including the one covered in red flames. We’ll find out when we go
there.” “Understood. Then let’s go without delay,” Li Tianming nodded and smiled.
After saying that, the two headed deeper into the Burning Heaven Universe Street.
Along the way, they passed many magnificent stalls selling various treasures.
However, Li Chaoxi had already acquired a very satisfying ‘Heavenly Heart Peach Blossom,’ which would greatly benefit her in the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War.
Li Tianming’s goal was simply to exchange treasures for money.
Only a full wallet mattered!
After all, Li Tianming wasn’t one to be a kept man.
Therefore, the two didn’t linger and headed straight for the core.
On the way, Li Chaoxi suddenly spoke, “It’s said that the person behind the Feng Huo Shen Dang is incredibly powerful and mysterious, so even though their trading style is unique, no one has ever dared to cause trouble. It’s definitely our top choice for this trip.”
“To be able to deal with so many powerful individuals from various races and such a wide range, and still keep their arrogance in check, doesn’t that mean Feng Huo Shen Dang has a huge business?” Li Tianming asked, somewhat surprised.
“It’s more than huge, it’s practically a monopoly!” Li Chaoxi said very seriously, “If they didn’t leave some room for other merchants, the street vendors probably wouldn’t be able to operate.”
These words piqued Li Tianming’s curiosity even more.
But he wasn’t in a hurry; he’d see it for himself soon enough.
Time passed slowly.
Soon, the two arrived in front of an extremely luxurious hall.
“Based on what my father described, this should be it,” Li Chaoxi said slowly, looking at the scene before him.
Li Tianming looked up and was immediately shocked.
“So big?”
Despite being somewhat prepared, he was still very surprised.
The size of the ‘Beacon Fire Divine Hall’ was almost one-tenth of the entire Burning Heaven Universe Street!
In the center of the street, it stood like a towering mountain, and the entire hall was made of translucent red crystal.
On the crystal, red, leaping flames burned. These flames were far away from Li Tianming and Li Tianming, but they still emitted an intense heat.
The flames seemed to burn eternally, with a long and steady flow.
“Let’s go, let’s go in and take a look.” Li Chaoxi pulled Li Tianming inside.
She was also very curious, after all, it was her first time here.
After entering the ‘Beacon Fire Divine Hall’, a wave of heat hit them.
Even the intense heat made Li Chaoxi frown.
Li Tianming, however, remained calm. After all, he cultivated in symbiosis with Yinghuo and possessed the same Eternal Purgatory Body.
So this burning sensation was nothing to him.
Upon entering, Li Tianming glanced around and was shocked to find that the interior was entirely constructed of red crystals,
accompanied by blazing flames .
“No wonder it’s so hot; it’s all fire inside,” Li Chaoxi said, waving her slender, white hand to try and dispel the heat.
Soon, Li Tianming’s gaze was drawn to the various windows.
Many customers entering the ‘Beacon Fire Pawnshop’ were passing through these windows.
Just as Li Tianming was about to ask someone for directions, he suddenly saw a young man with two deer antlers approaching from a distance.
“It looks like someone’s coming this way…” Li Chaoxi tugged at Li Tianming’s sleeve, reminding him.
Li Tianming didn’t respond immediately; he wasn’t sure if the young man was targeting him and Li Chaoxi.
He pretended to be nonchalant, but eventually, the antler-wearing youth reached Li Tianming.
Only then did Li Tianming see the young man’s full appearance.
The young man had blue scales below his left eye, refined and handsome features, and a gentle expression, but his exposed left arm resembled an eagle’s claw.
Antlers, scales, and an eagle’s claw all appeared on a humanoid creature, making it difficult for Li Tianming to determine its race.
“Fellow Daoist, you seem a little lost. Is this your first time here?” the antler-wearing youth said with a warm smile.
“Indeed, it’s my first time. What can I do for you?” Li Tianming asked politely, bowing.
“Nothing much. I just took the liberty of coming here and wanted to offer you some guidance. Actually, to pawn items, just go directly to those windows. There’s no need to be confused; someone will guide you once you’re inside,” the antler-wearing youth added with a smile.
“Thank you for your explanation, Fellow Daoist. I’ll go try it now.” Li Tianming readily offered his thanks, immediately preparing to pull Li Chaoxi away.
Aside from the unavoidable battles during the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War, Li Tianming didn’t intend to get involved with anyone; this was his principle for this trip.
However, sometimes things don’t go as planned.
“Fellow Daoist, please wait.” The antler-clad youth called out to Li Tianming, glancing at Li Chaoxi before turning back to Li Tianming. “If I’m not mistaken, you two are also here to participate in the Myriad Sects Emperor War, aren’t you?”
Li Tianming seemed to sense Li Chaoxi’s wariness from her tightly clenched hand. He gently rubbed his thumb against the back of Li Chaoxi’s hand, signaling her to relax.
“Don’t be nervous, you two. I really mean no harm; I just want to get to know you,” the antler-clad youth continued with a smile.
Li Tianming turned to face the antler-clad youth, smiling. “Fellow Daoist has excellent eyesight. We are indeed from the outer regions.”
Li Tianming didn’t intend to hide his origins, nor did he need to; his strength and age made it easy to guess.
However, he still held back, not fully revealing his background.
A hint of surprise seemed to flash in the eyes of the antler-faced youth. He smiled and said, “It’s fate that we meet. Actually, I’m also one of the participants. My name is Qiu Lin, from the Qiu Clan’s Qianyuan Sect.”
“My name is Li Tianming, and this is my wife, Li Chaoxi. We have some urgent matters to attend to, so please excuse us, Brother Lin.” Li Tianming cupped his hands and gave a generous salute, showing ample respect as a peer.
After saying that, he immediately took Li Chaoxi and left without lingering.
