After taking a few steps, Chu Xi inadvertently turned around and gasped in shock. The enormous stone door behind her was becoming increasingly faint, shifting from deep blue to pale white, as if an invisible hand were slowly erasing it. In a moment, the stone door vanished into the raging flames. The thought of the way back disappearing made even Chu Xi, who usually remained calm, feel a surge of panic.
"It's fine, Senior Dragon will take us out," Li Hong said confidently. Hearing this, Chu Xi managed to calm herself down. After walking another ten steps, the heat around them intensified; even with her internal energy circulating throughout her body, she still felt a tightness in her chest.
The blazing light cast on Chu Xi's small face made her look very pale. The flickering flames reflected in her eyes, and her lips trembled slightly. The ends of her long black hair were curling and changing shape, releasing a faint burnt smell. When she reached out to touch the tips of her hair, Chu Xi's expression grew even more distressed.
Li Hong chuckled as he pinched her palm. "Are you regretting it now? If you are, I can send you back immediately; the passage is still there."
"No!" Chu Xi shook her head firmly and instead asked, "Where exactly is Senior Dragon?"
Li Hong didn't know either. He remembered that last time they entered the formation, the Fire Dragon appeared after a while. He decided to try summoning the Fire Dragon right there. Before he could act, a robust male voice boomed beside him: "Kid, you finally made it!"
The voice sounded strangely like it resonated within his heart rather than being heard in the conventional sense; it was quite sudden. Li Hong jumped three feet high and almost let go of Chu Xi's hand.
Chu Xi immediately sensed this and looked around excitedly yet nervously as she asked, "Did Senior Dragon arrive? Where is he? Why can't I see him?"
"Hey? You brought a little girl with you." As soon as the words fell, a massive flaming dragon head materialized, gradually revealing its enormous body. The Dragon Whiskers flared angrily, and fireballs the size of grinding wheels spewed forth from its fiery mouth. Its gigantic scales and towering physique made it look incredibly majestic.
The boundless Fire Sea seemed to vanish; in that moment, only this flame-formed giant dragon existed in the world.
The Fire Dragon's enormous fiery eyes were fixated not on Li Hong but surprisingly on Chu Xi!
Li Hong "heard" the Fire Dragon seemingly talking to itself: "The girl is quite beautiful; she even has a natural Fire Spirit Root. Not bad at all; she would make a perfect dragon servant..."
"Dragon Slave!" Li Hong's heart skipped a beat as he exclaimed, "She is my junior sister, not some Dragon Slave!"
"Oh..." The Fire Dragon shook its massive head, sending large bursts of flames flying like meteors. It turned its big head towards Li Hong and said in a voice that resonated in his heart, "Right... I'm dead, what do I need a Dragon Slave for? My bad, my bad. Since she's your little lover, let's forget about it."
Li Hong felt his face flush with embarrassment. What little lover! He quickly changed the subject, not daring to let go of Chu Xi's hand, and slightly bowed with his left hand on his chest, saying, "I've met Senior Dragon."
"What senior this and senior that! I don't want to hear it! It's not every day I get to talk, so we should chat more often. I could easily be your senior's senior, but you and I have a deep connection, so let's consider ourselves equals from now on. Haha, I'll give your little lover plenty of face." The Fire Dragon's mouth opened and closed as if it were chattering endlessly. But Li Hong knew that the voice of the Fire Dragon did not come from the giant dragon's mouth before him; rather, it was something he felt within himself. He couldn't be sure about it.
Chu Xi stared in fascination at the enormous mouth that could fit her whole body and murmured, "Divine Consciousness communication... Wow! The most advanced way to communicate with divine beasts! Dragon Slave? What does Dragon Slave even mean..." She was momentarily lost in thought at the unfamiliar term, but nothing could stop her from being captivated by the Fire Dragon.
"The little girl has some knowledge; not bad, not bad. She's right. In the past, when your power was low, even if my dragon pearl was inside you, you couldn't communicate with my Divine Consciousness. Now it's completely different; your power has greatly increased. Haha, finally we can have a good chat without me having to keep gesturing—it's exhausting!"
Communication? Just listen to you ramble... Li Hong thought bitterly.
The Fire Dragon paused for a moment before erupting with a roar of flames, its expression turning extremely indignant: "What! You think I'm rambling?!"
Li Hong was dumbfounded. Could it really know what he was thinking?
"Not exactly; I only know what you're thinking if it concerns me. Am I some kind of parasite in your belly? Hmph, I'm not! Rambling? I'm just lonely!"
Oh... Li Hong simply shut his mouth and silently communicated with the Fire Dragon in his heart, "I finally managed to get in here today; there's something I'd like to ask."
"I can tell you anything! Hehe, for example, how did you get close to your little lover..."
Li Hong rolled his eyes and thought, "Stop joking around. I have something important to discuss. How did your Dragon Pearl end up in my body last time?" He pointed to his forehead.
"Well, I'm not really sure. When you came in last time, I was really angry at first. Hmph, you actually flaunted my Dragon Pearl right in front of me! I wanted to scare you a bit. But then you suddenly collapsed and fainted, and I watched helplessly as my Dragon Pearl entered your body, traveling up your meridians straight to your Purple Palace, and then it just stopped there. Why my Dragon Pearl ended up in your body... honestly, I don't know either..."
He actually didn't know! Li Hong was momentarily stunned.
"What are you afraid of? This is a good thing! You got a great deal and are still acting coy! Hmph! Anyway, now you have me inside you, and I have you inside me... Ugh! That sounds wrong! What I mean is, you now have my Dragon Pearl that I've painstakingly cultivated for thousands of years inside your body, which will greatly benefit your cultivation in the future! First of all..." The Fire Dragon transformed into two massive hands the size of small mountains and began counting on its gigantic fingers. "First, from now on, you won't be afraid of any fire. Humans always say that the Fire Sea is the most torturous place in the world, ha ha! From now on, the Fire Sea will be child's play for you. You might still struggle against a mountain of blades with your current physique, but you definitely won't need to worry about the Fire Sea. No matter if it's True Sunfire, Starfire, or Yin Extreme Thunderfire, none of them can harm you one bit because I'm an expert at playing with fire! Secondly, you'll also be unafraid of water. We Divine Dragons are also experts at water; although I'm a Fire Dragon, Water Dragons are all part of the same family. No worries there; you'll definitely be able to go into water without any issues! Thirdly, as long as you’re careful not to get your head chopped off or be split into a thousand pieces—like losing an arm or leg—you'll regenerate. In other words, as long as you're cautious, you basically won't die. Hmph! You got lucky; whatever lifespan I should have will also extend to you!"
Li Hong was filled with unexpected joy; indeed, what Chu Xi said was correct! The one thing he was most worried about was no longer an issue! He would also possess endless longevity in the future; it was just... would his cultivation speed be as slow as that of a Divine Dragon?
"Don't worry! You're a bit extraordinary; I knew that the moment you stepped into this damned Li Fire Formation. As for how you're extraordinary, I'm not quite sure yet... But hey, if your cultivation speed is slow, so be it; slow work yields fine products."
Hearing this, Li Hong finally felt relieved.
However, the Fire Dragon continued, "There's just one small problem."
Li Hong's heart sank again. "What problem?"
