Wei Chen's power could double!
Wei Chen caught the hidden meaning in Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow's words, and he was quite intrigued by the idea of many from the Fire Tribe dedicating their lives to this cause.
This benefit was enough to compel Wei Chen to give his all. Even before the negotiations had truly begun, Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow had thrown out a heavy bombshell that made it impossible for Wei Chen to refuse.
This was both the sincerity of Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow and a desperate measure.
Once the fire dissipated, the Fire Tribe would slowly vanish from the Endless Divine Realm, becoming indistinguishable from the masses. As the patriarch, Fire Shadow would be the one to suffer the most. That feeling was worse than death.
After pondering for a moment, Wei Chen calmly asked, "Patriarch, what exactly should I do?"
"I will first take you to the volcano; I hope you can assist us," Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow replied sincerely.
The volcano was a sacred place within the Fire Clan Secret Realm, accessible only during the Fire Tribe's ancestral worship ceremony held every hundred years. The location of the fire was such that only a handful of people from the entire Fire Tribe could enter. Outside of the ancestral worship and celebration ceremonies, only Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow had the qualification to enter the volcano.
The precious fire was nurtured and grew within that volcano.
Wei Chen had long heard of the fire's formidable reputation. Yue Songyang, Deputy Hall Master, had negotiated with him about helping to capture fire in Winning the Qin Divine Realm. Even obtaining just a small amount of Fire Shard would be enough to dramatically boost his strength.
The preciousness of fire was well understood among the higher-ups in the Endless Divine Realm. However, fire was hard to find; it was nearly impossible for it to appear on the mainland of Endless Divine Realm. Yue Songyang also did not know what kind of luck he had stumbled upon when he discovered fire's existence right within Winning the Qin Divine Realm—a divine vessel that even Ying Qin Supreme Deity had not found.
Wei Chen understood the terror of fire. He suddenly realized that there was a reason why Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow wanted Donghua and their seven members to leave at first. The fellow known as Ying Qin Supreme Deity being "driven away" was not unjustified.
As for what fire truly was, Donghua and his seven companions were unaware, but seeing Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow's demeanor made them understand the seriousness of the situation. It concerned the survival of a great clan, and there was no room for jokes.
At that moment, the Shaohuang God King suddenly said, "Since it is such an important matter and we cannot see it, let us wait here."
Among the seven of them, Donghua was the strongest and had the most authority. When he spoke, the others would listen.
Seeing the Shaohuang God King's sudden declaration, Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow's eyes showed a hint of gratitude.
However, unexpectedly, Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow did not allow Donghua and his companions to leave. With a grateful expression, he said, "Let's go together. Many minds are better than one; perhaps there will be a chance for a breakthrough."
Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow was not doing this for Wei Chen or for Donghua and his group; he was genuinely moved by the Shaohuang God King's words. The Shaohuang God King had taken the initiative to go, and Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow felt that he could not let Donghua and his companions leave.
It was about respecting others when they respected you. Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow did this quite well. To put it plainly, it was a reflection of emotional intelligence and human warmth. If someone lacking in emotional intelligence had been in his position, they would have simply followed the Shaohuang God King's wishes and let Donghua and his companions leave. Although Wei Chen and Donghua's group would not think much of it, there would certainly be some resentment in their hearts, which would be detrimental to future developments.
The Shaohuang God King pondered for a moment before looking at Wei Chen.
Wei Chen was the leader; the Shaohuang God King's words were merely an attempt to avoid putting Wei Chen and Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow in a difficult position.
Wei Chen replied calmly, "Since Fire Clan Leader has invited us, let's go together. Collaborating is indeed better than fighting alone."
And so it was decided. Under the leadership of Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow, Wei Chen and Donghua's group flew toward the volcano.
The volcano was located at the very center of the Fire Clan Secret Realm, several thousand miles away from Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow's residence.
The area of the Fire Clan Secret Realm was not particularly large; while it was decent enough, compared to the Endless Divine Realm, it felt insignificant. However, within that small area, the number of powerful individuals was not inferior to those ranked in the middle tier of Divine Realms within the Endless Divine Realm, which was quite remarkable.
Moreover, the people of the Fire Tribe were inherently fierce; they fought recklessly and possessed formidable combat strength that ordinary people could hardly match. In battles of equal level, those from the Fire Tribe could gain a significant advantage due to their mastery of Fire Element Energy. This fierce style had been evident during their assault on Privy Hall.
However, that time, after all, it was the strength of the village that posed a significant threat to Privy Hall, but in the end, they returned empty-handed. Nevertheless, their combat power was profoundly demonstrated; it was rare for the Fire Tribe to show themselves in the Endless Divine Realm. Once they did, it caused a great shock among the higher-ups of the Endless Divine Realm. Many sought to find the existence of the Fire Tribe and the Fire Clan Secret Realm. The higher-ups had some speculations in mind, but they could not find the entrance or the specific location.
Perhaps Ying Qin Supreme Deity was the only one among the higher-ups of the Endless Divine Realm who knew the entrance to the Fire Clan Secret Realm. He had saved Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow's life, leaving behind a debt of gratitude. After hearing about Wei Chen's situation, Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow saw hope. With their powerful formation techniques, perhaps they could stabilize and consolidate their forces.
If successful, Wei Chen would be a great benefactor, and Ying Qin Supreme Deity, as the introducer, would also deserve significant credit.
In any case, the combat power of the Fire Tribe was formidable and should not be underestimated. Even if the area of the Fire Clan Secret Realm was vast, it was likely that no one in the Endless Divine Realm dared to look down on them.
On the way to the volcano, Wei Chen asked Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow, "Patriarch, why didn't your branch of the Fire Tribe assist when you attacked Privy Hall? If the Fire Clan Secret Realm had intervened, Privy Hall would have been destroyed long ago."
"Brother Wei Chen, you may not know this. In our Fire Tribe, unless we are threatened at our doorstep, those tribes within the Endless Divine Realm operate independently. Our Fire Clan Secret Realm is no different. Even within our Fire Clan Secret Realm, we are divided into many tribes. Although we maintain harmony among ourselves, our Ancestral Instruction dictates that we handle our own matters. Therefore, we could only watch and wait without intervening," Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow replied calmly.
Wei Chen nodded and smiled. "Perhaps there was also a risk of exposure? Once the Fire Clan Secret Realm is revealed, many supreme God-Level figures might unite to invade and seize fire from us."
"Exactly. We have many concerns; fire is precious, and those Supreme Gods would undoubtedly covet it. A united attack is very possible. Thus, we wouldn't take such risks to help Privy Hall; teaching them a lesson is sufficient. There's no need to destroy Privy Hall just because one person died."
"That time, Privy Hall also learned a profound lesson; that is enough for us in the Fire Tribe."
Upon hearing this, Wei Chen admired both the system of the Fire Tribe and their broad-mindedness. Each tribe cleans its own doorstep without caring about others' roofs—unless it involves a matter of extermination; there’s no need for assistance; they resolve their issues themselves. This gradual training has made every branch of the Fire Tribe incredibly strong. If it truly came down to a battle involving extermination of the Fire Tribe, the power they could unleash would be astonishingly terrifying.
Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow's words resonated not only with Wei Chen but also with Donghua and their seven companions, who felt a sense of agreement with his viewpoint.
For the first time in their lives, Wei Chen and Donghua's group found common ground in governance through division rather than unity—a governance style that characterized White Out and the Fire Tribe.
Divided governance allows each branch to freely develop and compete against each other without large-scale internal strife or consumption; there’s nothing wrong with that as long as it remains manageable.
Wei Chen pondered for a moment, looking at Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow, and calmly asked, "Patriarch, you invited me here because you value my Formation Assignment, believing I can help you gather and reunite the fire, right?"
"Exactly," Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow nodded.
Wei Chen smiled and said, "Aren't you worried that I might take your fire away? After all, I have heard about its preciousness. It is said that just a bit of Fire Shard can significantly enhance one's strength."
Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow replied seriously, "Brother Wei Chen, I have negotiated with the elders of our clan. As long as you can help us reunite the fire and assist our Fire Tribe in overcoming this crisis, we can allow you to take three Fire Shards with you."
Upon hearing this, Wei Chen couldn't help but be astonished. The Fire Tribe was truly investing heavily!
However, that was contingent upon solving the fire crisis, which was quite challenging. Wei Chen had not seen the situation on-site and did not dare to make any rash conclusions.
Wei Chen continued, "Patriarch, aren't you worried that I might not be interested in Fire Shards and instead directly take the Fire Source?"
"The Fire Source cannot be taken away. It either dissipates or remains dominant at its birthplace; no one can carry it away. Brother Wei Chen, you can try later. If you manage to take the Fire Source away, you will be regarded as a god by our Fire Tribe, and everyone in the tribe will become your subjects."
Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow looked at Wei Chen with a grin, seemingly unconcerned about the possibility of losing the Fire Source. After all, that would be nearly impossible.
Hearing Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow's words, Donghua and the other six felt a chill run down their spines. Was there really anything in this world that Wei Chen couldn't accomplish? Perhaps this boast from Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow could bring great trouble to the Fire Tribe!
Wei Chen quietly calculated for a moment and asked, "Patriarch, what if the Supreme Gods united to attack the Fire Tribe? Would they still be unable to obtain the Fire Source?"
