Chapter 701: The So-Called "Taixuan Hong", Danger on All Sides

Taixuan Tianyi was completely dumbfounded as he stared at the six people standing before him.

They varied in height and age, but they shared one commonality: all of them were staring at him with profound interest.

He wondered, “How can there be people in here? And six of them at that!”

Taixuan Tianyi looked as if he had seen a ghost. A chilling shudder ran through his body as he instinctively tried to back away, only to find himself immobilized by an invisible force, completely unable to move.

Even now in the Abyss Realm, there were still people secretly searching for the place where the Purple Extreme World-Purifying Saint Monarch fell and hunting down the Taixuan family. It should have been impossible for anyone to find this place, let alone six people at once.

Taixuan Tianyi’s expression changed drastically when he realized his body was walking off the edge against his will.

He thought, “No, this can’t be happening!”

Even though he didn’t know what he would face, he was certain these six people were up to no good. Instinctively, he tried to turn his head to seek help from the Spirit of Sun. From the corner of his eye, he seemed to catch a glimpse of purple streams of light converging, but they made no further movement.

He thought angrily, “This damn Spirit of Sun! It has received our Taixuan family’s offerings for so long for nothing!” However, he also felt helpless; merely being acknowledged—even if it was by the Three Dragon Shadows—wasn’t that important.

The Ancient Kings looked at the little guy standing before them with strange expressions.

“Three Dragon Shadows, True Radiance Talent,” Xuan Tian Ancient King said softly. “To think such a little guy would pop up.”

Taixuan Tianyi’s heart pounded with unease. Upon hearing Xuan Tian Ancient King’s words, he suddenly realized something. These six people before him were moving freely within this Flame Space without any protection whatsoever.

He thought in shock, “This is the interior of the Sun Flame. Even a Morning Star would find it difficult to remain here for a long time without protection. Could it be that these six people are all Moonlights?”

Taixuan Tianyi grew increasingly horrified. How could there be six Moonlights here?

It was unimaginable to him. Many years ago, the last Moonlight in his family had fallen, and their Moonlight Spirit had even been snatched away. Since then, not a single Moonlight had been born among them. Even in the Abyss Realm, a Moonlight was considered a foundational pillar of power. Even among the top factions like Great Heaven and Longevity, not a single one possessed six Moonlights simultaneously.

These thoughts barely flashed through his mind before his vision blurred.

In the next moment, he had been brought down from the Spiritual Tower and into a certain palace below.

The restrictive force surrounding him vanished, but Taixuan Tianyi didn’t dare to make a move. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Xuan Tian Ancient King’s eyes flickered slightly as he reached out and made a pinching motion. Taixuan Tianyi only felt the world spin around him as his Spirit Body was forcibly yanked out.

“What a complex Spiritual Imprint. I’ve never seen anything like it.”

Tossing it back with a flick of his hand, Xuan Tian Ancient King abandoned the idea of searching his memories.

Taixuan Tianyi snapped out of his daze, his body stumbling. He instinctively clenched his hand, only to find that the Fire-igniting Ash he had been holding had disappeared at some point.

Looking up, he saw an authoritative middle-aged man on his left fiddling with the Fire-igniting Ash. “It’s quite similar to the Flame Fire Golden Sand…”

“This armor has an interesting forging method and uses precious materials, but it lacks any real Power. It’s probably the casual armor of some powerhouse, used merely for decoration…” The armor on his body had also been stripped off, leaving him in nothing but his inner garments.

“Little guy.”

Taixuan Tianyi looked at the man who had just yanked out his Spirit Body. Seeing the warm smile on the other party’s face, he couldn’t help but feel a sliver of goodwill toward him.

Xuan Tian Ancient King smiled. “Don’t be so nervous. Gaining the Three Dragon Shadows’ acknowledgement right off the bat, a True Radiance Talent. I suppose I’ve finally seen a living one today.”

Taixuan Tianyi tried his best to stay calm, catching fragments of information from their few words.

He thought, “He has never seen a True Radiance Talent?

“There are quite a few True Radiance Talents in the Abyss Realm. Could it be that they aren’t from the Abyss Realm at all, but from an Outer Realm scattered within the Nether Fog?

“An Outer Realm that possesses six Moonlights? This is simply unbelievable…”

“What’s your name?” Xuan Tian Ancient King suddenly asked.

For some unknown reason, Taixuan Tianyi blurted out the answer without a second thought. “Taixuan Tianyi.”

The moment the words left his mouth, a terrified look flashed across his eyes. Within his Spirit Body lay the ancestral imprint of the Taixuan family. That was the fundamental reason why, despite their clan declining to such a state, their method of offering sacrifices to the Purple Extreme World-Purifying Saint Monarch had never leaked out.

Yet, in a moment of a daze, he had actually spoken his true name.

He thought, “What method did this person use to subtly bypass my Spiritual Imprint?”

“Taixuan Tianyi?”

Hearing this name, the expressions of the several people present turned a bit subtle.

“Another Supreme Profound, but this one feels somewhat different from the last one.”

“Did the last one not report our information to his family when he went back, or are they simply not of the same lineage?”

“This kid looks rather stupid. Let’s try to fish some more information out of him.”

“What is this thing?” Hanhai Emperor asked, toying with the Fire-igniting Ash in his hand.

“This… this is…” Taixuan Tianyi hesitated in his heart. Suddenly, his vision darkened as a burly figure stepped up beside him, casting a shadow that covered most of his body. It was the very person who had stripped off his armor.

Zhenwu Ancient King looked down at him coldly. “Since you’re unwilling to speak, then you can stay silent forever. I’d like to see if that Spirit of Sun is willing to protect a guy who was merely acknowledged.”

He reached out with his large hand, ready to crush him.

Taixuan Tianyi’s heart leaped in fright. Just at that moment, the warm-faced man stepped forward and effortlessly blocked the savage brute, shaking his head. “You’re too rough. You’ve completely terrified our little friend here.”

Xuan Tian Ancient King consoled, “My friend here is a bit reckless by nature. Please don’t take it to heart.”

“I will ask one more time. What exactly does this thing do?” Hanhai Emperor said in an indifferent tone.

Taixuan Tianyi looked at the elegant man with a warm smile on his face in front of him. He then glanced at the burly man with crossed arms and a murderous look on his face, before turning his gaze to the authoritative middle-aged man who was pinching the Fire-igniting Ash.
