My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife

Qingfeng Li was surprised after seeing Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, Jun Po, and Xie Ming, the four emperors of supreme dynasties, leading their minions to cross the Fire Essence River.

These people were so powerful that even the Fire Essence River couldn’t stop them.

After the four super masters, the masters in the Eighth Level of the Spirit Monarch Realm such as the Devil Monarch, the Demon Monarch, the Ghost Monarch, and the Wicked Monarch, also took out their powerful Dharma treasures and crossed the Fire Essence River.

Other self-cultivators also strived to cross the river and feared to lag behind, for they knew they could only get the inheritance of the Sun Monarch by entering the depths of the Sun Monarch Tomb first.

If they were not able to pass the first challenge, how could they get the legacy?

Some of the following self-cultivators were powerful enough to cross the Fire Essence River, but some were weak and were devoured above the river, turning into black smoke, leaving only miserable screams behind.

Xue Lin shuddered by the side of Qingfeng Li, saying, “Honey, the fire essence is too powerful, with a temperature of at least 9000 degrees.”

Qingfeng Li nodded and said, “I have a feeling that this Fire Essence River is not simple. There may be a treasure hidden in it, which Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, and the rest all missed. But my golden flame is reacting to something. I want to refine the fire essence.”

Black Puppy walked by Qingfeng Li’s side and said, “If I’m right, there must be a saint-level fire essence in the depths of this river. It’s the source. The golden flame will evolve once you get it.”

Qingfeng Li nodded and said, “Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, you and the rest take care of Xue Lin here. I’ll enter the river and check.”

Xue Lin was startled and stopped Qingfeng Li, saying, “Honey, that fire essence is 9000 degrees hot. How can you stand it? Other self-cultivators turn into ashes immediately once they touched it.”

Qingfeng Li shook his hand and said, “Don’t worry about me. My golden flames have already reached 9500 degrees. I can stand the heat.”

Qingfeng Li stepped on the ground and turned into a sharp arrow, rushing toward the Fire Essence River like a dragon, plunging into the river, splattering fire essence away like flame waves, which shocked all the surrounding self-cultivators.

By the shore of the Fire Essence River stood thousands of self-cultivators. They started to discuss when they saw Qingfeng Li diving into the river like a fish.

“Is this guy crazy or brain-damaged, diving like that into the Fire Essence River?”

“Does he want to be burned to death? He is totally out of his mind to be this bold. The human body can never stand the temperature.”

“This guy is courageous and a good example for all self-cultivators, showing the power of fire essence with his death.”

The surrounding self-cultivators were all contemptuous and treated him as a dumba*s after seeing Qingfeng Li dive into the Fire Essence River.

Some other forces were on the north-west of Fire Essence River, such as the Planetary Elixir Pharmacy, the Array Pavilion, the Dharma Treasure Union, and the Martial Alliance.

These people had dealings with Qingfeng Li and knew he was powerful, talented, and clever. He wouldn’t dive into the Fire Essence River without reason.

The vice-master of Planetary Pavilion was Zhen Lu, who had tried to recruit Qingfeng Li before but was turned down.

Zhen Lu looked at Lu Gu by his side, saying, “Lu Gu, you have known Qingfeng Li the longest. Do you know his intention? Isn’t he afraid of the high temperature of fire essence?”

Lu Gu shook his head and said, “Master Zhen Lu, Qingfeng Li is no simple man. I once saw him making monarch level elixirs easily. He may have some saint level flames in his possession and is not afraid of the heat of fire essence.”

Zhen Lu was a little shocked, saying, “We should have recruited Qingfeng Li into our Planetary Pavilion long ago. If he can walk out of the Fire Essence River alive, we need to maintain a good relationship with him at any cost.”

Lu Gu smiled slightly and didn’t respond. He had known Qingfeng Li long ago and was close to him, with frequent communications about alchemy. To be honest, he was closer to Qingfeng Li than Zhen Lu, though he was in the Planetary Pavilion and under the supervision of the latter.

Hai Wu from Martial Alliance was also surprised and stunned. He had dealt with Qingfeng Li a few times before, but it was still beyond his expectation that Qingfeng Li could be this fearless.

Aotian Wu, the Commander-in-Chief of the Martial Alliance stood beside Hai Wu. This middle-aged man had also gotten lots of treasures and spirit herbs after entering the Sun Mystic Realm.

He had reached the Seventh Level of the spirit monarch realm and became a super master only comparable to the emperors of supreme dynasties.

Aotian Wu looked at Hai Wu by his side and said, “Do you think Qingfeng Li will survive?”

Hai Wu nodded, saying, “Commander-in-Chief, I think he’ll be alright. He is always a mysterious guy, who will never do something without confidence in succeeding.”

All the people knew Qingfeng Li thought he would be okay, while the others thought he was doomed.

Qingfeng Li had reached the bottom of the Fire Essence River and didn’t know what others were discussing.

At this moment, Qingfeng Li’s clothes were all burned down, and he was all surrounded by fire essence.

The fire essence was an advanced version of flames, surrounding him like red fairies, burning his skin with high temperature.

Qingfeng Li operated the golden flame inside him, resisting the heat of fire essence with the high temperature of 9500 degrees.

Luckily, Qingfeng Li had the Golden Flames. If it was another self-cultivator at the bottom of the Fire Essence River at this moment, he would definitely die. It was full of flaring fire essence here, bouncing like locusts.

Qingfeng Li walked at the bottom of the river, with each step splitting the Fire Essence apart. The fire essence seemed to fear Qingfeng Li’s golden flame and was afraid of being devoured.

Qingfeng Li’s golden flame could devour other flames but didn’t pay attention to the scattered fire essence. His target was the saint level fire essence at the bottom of this river.

Qingfeng Li felt that a mysterious treasure was hidden in front of him. He had to find it and improve his own flames.
