Chapter 988: On the Eve of the Convention!
Ye Chen and the others settled down in the Azure Phoenix Clan.
The other people of the Blue Phoenix Mountain were all in the vicinity. They all lived on the peak of the Azure Phoenix Clan.
The peak of the Azure Phoenix Clan towered into the clouds, piercing straight into the horizon.
Furthermore, this mountain peak was extremely steep. It was extremely difficult to climb this mountain peak. One needed extremely powerful body techniques or divine abilities to climb it.
Not only were there many powerful spirit beasts on this Blue Phoenix Mountain, there were also all sorts of strange flowers and plants. The Spiritual Qi was so dense that it was frightening.
After Ye Chen and the others moved into this Blue Phoenix Mountain, those disciples with weaker cultivations began to climb this mountain peak one after another. They wanted to search for opportunities at the peak of this mountain.
The room that Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue were staying in was quite a distance away from the peak of the mountain.
Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue were not in a hurry to go up the mountain either.
Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue sat cross-legged in the cave, quietly adjusting the Spiritual Qi in their bodies.
The two of them cultivated for half a month.
During this half a month, Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue did not see any members of the Azure Phoenix Clan, nor did they meet any other cultivators.
Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue were at the peak of the mountain, peacefully cultivating in seclusion.
Soon, almost all the guests had arrived.
The Fire Bathing Convention of the Azure Phoenix Clan was about to begin.
A maid came to Ye Chen’s residence.
“The Fire Bathing Convention has already begun. Please go and watch!” The maid said when she saw Ye Chen.
“Okay!”
Ye Chen replied and followed behind the maid as they walked toward the Blue Phoenix Grand Hall.
The Blue Phoenix Grand Hall was already filled with people.
These people were all disciples of the Azure Phoenix Clan. Some of them were sitting cross-legged on the ground, circulating their cultivation techniques and cultivating. Some were standing at the side, discussing something.
In the middle of the Blue Phoenix Grand Hall, there was a large bronze war drum.
Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue followed the maid to a corner of the Azure Phoenix Great Hall.
Ye Chen looked at the bronze war drum.
On the surface of the bronze war drum, there were some lifelike carvings that looked lifelike.
At the base of the bronze war drum, there were some words carved. These words were carved out by runes, and these runes looked extremely mysterious and unfathomable.
“These words were written by the Grandmasters of my Azure Phoenix Clan!”
“These words represent the Fire Bathing Convention. This is a treasure left behind by the Grandmasters, a treasure forged by the Grandmasters themselves.”
The maid explained to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen nodded when he heard this.
From Ye Chen’s point of view, this bronze war drum was indeed very powerful.
Ye Chen saw the words at the bottom of the bronze war drum and saw the power of these words.
At the bottom of the bronze war drum were carved some symbols. These symbols contained a terrifying pressure.
Ye Chen estimated that if he used his fist force to hit the bronze war drum, the bronze war drum would definitely be able to block his attack. It could even make the bronze war drum vibrate.
However, the bronze war drum was after all an important treasure in the history of the Azure Phoenix Clan. Ye Chen did not dare to move carelessly. Otherwise, if he angered the Grandmaster of the Azure Phoenix Clan, the consequences would be severe.
Although Ye Chen did not touch the bronze war drum, he began to study it carefully.
Ye Chen looked at it for a while and discovered that the mysterious array formation contained on the bronze war drum was not a simple inscription.
Ye Chen had never seen the array formation on the bronze war drum before, and it looked rather mystical.
“What’s going on with these array formations?”
Ye Chen looked at those mysterious array formations and was extremely puzzled.
“These mysterious arrays were all passed down by the Grandmasters to the Grandmasters of the Azure Phoenix Clan. The Grandmasters engraved these arrays on the bronze war drums, making this bronze war drum an extremely rare treasure!”
“These bronze war drums are the most ancient weapons of our Azure Phoenix Clan. Back then, our Azure Phoenix Clan suffered a great disaster. In order to protect the Azure Phoenix Clan, these Grandmasters passed down their inheritance and passed it down to the most outstanding disciple of our clan.” The maid immediately explained.
Hearing the maid’s words, Ye Chen nodded.
Ye Chen looked at the array formation and his eyes slightly narrowed.
At the very front of the bronze war drums, there was a huge chair. On the chair, there were several praying mats. On the chair, there were already many people.
On the praying mats, there were also some people. They sat on the praying mats and closed their eyes to meditate. They seemed to be comprehending the array formation on the bronze war drums.
These people were all young people.
Ye Chen looked at those young people and thought to himself, these young people should be the young elites of the Azure Phoenix Clan.
The maid led Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue into the main hall.
At this moment, the young people in the main hall all opened their eyes and their gazes fell on Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue.
However, Ye Chen and the others had already concealed their identities, so they were unable to discover that Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue were humans.
At this moment, many people had already gathered in the main hall.
At this moment.
Ye Chen saw a familiar figure.
That fiery red figure was especially eye-catching in front of everyone.
It was none other than the Fire Empress.
“As expected, the Fire Empress has also come here. I wonder if she has comprehended that Golden Decree!” Ye Chen muttered.
Because Ye Chen concealed his aura, the Fire Empress could not discover Ye Chen.
Other than the Fire Empress, there were also many powerful Dao Fusing Realm cultivators who had come here.
Even the Deity Clan Grandmaster and the Spirit Clan’s Grandmaster had come.
They had also come to the Azure Phoenix Clan.
Ye Chen sucked in a breath of cold air.
He knew that if he exposed his identity here, it would be very dangerous.
Therefore, Ye Chen did not plan to expose his identity for the time being.
There were a few hundred people in this hall.
These young men and women were all participating in the Azure Phoenix Clan’s sacrificial ceremony this time.
Ye Chen followed Murong Qingxue and stood in a corner.
Ye Chen and Murong Qingxue were not conspicuous among the crowd of the Azure Phoenix Clan.
Most of these young people were powerful warriors of the younger generation. Ye Chen’s strength was at the late stage of the Escape One Realm. Only Dao Fusing Realm experts could attract the attention of others here.
Therefore, Ye Chen could not attract the attention of these young people at all.
At the top of the Great Hall sat three old men. These three old men were all Dao Fusing Realm experts.
These three were dressed in purple robes and wore crowns on their heads.
Their clothes were embroidered with feathers of gold, silver, and blue.
These three were the Grandmasters of the Azure Phoenix Clan.
The sudden appearance of three Dao Fusing Realm experts was enough to show the importance the Azure Phoenix Clan attached to this Fire Bathing Convention.
The purple-robed old man sitting at the head seat instructed a white-haired old man beside him.
This white-haired old man was the chief of the Azure Phoenix Clan.
