It was not the explosion of the Fire Source, but rather the thirty-six "veins" of the Heart of the Fire God that could no longer withstand the rapid influx and outflow of Fire Divine Power, resulting in an explosion.
Flames surged, and Wei Chen dared not approach to check on the Heart of the Fire God. The Demon Lotus was somewhat weakened and might not be able to provide him with safe protection anymore.
As they witnessed the volcano erupting and being utterly destroyed, the people of the Fire Tribe rushed over, kneeling alongside Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow and the Fire Clan Elders, crying out in despair.
The Sacred Mountain had exploded, and the Fire Clan Secret Realm was doomed as well.
Hearing those anguished cries, Wei Chen and Shaohuang God King felt sympathy but found themselves powerless. The Source of Fire Flower had already exploded; it was highly likely that the flame was doomed as well.
Donghua and Shaohou were eager to know what Wei Chen had encountered in the Fire Source, but since it concerned Wei Chen's secret, they dared not ask.
Surely, the volcanic eruption must have something to do with Wei Chen.
After all, over eight years, that force beneath the volcano had erupted ten times, destroying Wei Chen's formations and unleashing flames that engulfed the volcano, ultimately leading to a massive explosion…
Could all of this truly have nothing to do with Wei Chen?
Donghua and Shaohou did not believe it; in their eyes, it was undoubtedly related to Wei Chen. He could not escape blame in this matter.
Yet they were wise enough not to ask; it would be futile anyway. Wei Chen would certainly not divulge anything. For them, as long as Wei Chen emerged safely, that was what mattered most. The fate of the Fire Tribe was of little concern to them…
With a sense of detachment, though they felt sympathy, their own people were far more important.
At that moment, a powerful call resonated in Wei Chen's heart.
Wei Chen did not understand the meaning of that call; he only sensed that it was the Demon Lotus calling him to plunge into the flames and seek out the Heart of the Fire God.
It seemed to be saying, Demon Lotus Emperor, come help me!
"Is the Heart of the Fire God… calling for me? Or is it calling for my Demon Lotus Bloodline within me?"
"It makes no difference; I am Demon Lotus!"
Wei Chen did not hesitate. He casually greeted Donghua and Shaohou before flying towards the collapsing Flame Mountain, diving headfirst into the raging flames.
Seeing Wei Chen re-enter the interior of Flame Mountain, several Fire Elders, anxious to discover the state of the Fire Source, followed in his footsteps and rushed inside.
However, the moment they came into contact with the flames, they were all reduced to ashes.
The power of the flames was still as fierce as ever; those flames emanated from the Fire Source, and those Fire Elders were essentially walking to their deaths.
But how did Wei Chen manage to get in?
Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow and the remaining Fire Clan Elders were filled with suspicion. Wei Chen could freely enter and exit the Fire Source, making it highly likely that this explosion of Sacred Mountain was closely related to him!
The members of the Fire Tribe were filled with righteous indignation. A large group gathered, united in their anger, seeking to hold Wei Chen accountable. Previously, they had sworn loyalty to him, but now, with the imminent destruction of the Fire Tribe, that loyalty was rendered null and void. The Fire Clan Leader and Fire Clan Elders never expected that Wei Chen would not only fail to save the Fire Tribe but would instead lead them into a situation from which there was no return!
This was intolerable!
More and more members of the Fire Tribe gathered behind Fire Clan Leader Fire Shadow. Through the words of those Fire Elders, Wei Chen became the scapegoat for the volcanic collapse and explosion.
The shift from benefactor to enemy happened far too quickly!
The enraged members of the Fire Tribe would not wait for Wei Chen to come out and explain himself.
They were on the brink of madness!
Having lost their volcano, lost their Fire Source, they would soon lose their Fire Clan Secret Realm as well, becoming indistinguishable from others and losing the unique traits of the Fire Tribe—essentially leading to their extinction. In such circumstances, they desperately needed an outlet for their anger. Unfortunately, Wei Chen was that outlet.
Donghua and Shaohou also became targets of blame.
Led by dozens of Fire Elders, thousands of powerful members of the Fire Tribe surrounded Donghua and Shaohou!
“What exactly did Wei Chen do?”
"Surely it was Wei Chen's doing. The Fire Source exploded, and Wei Chen bears the greatest responsibility!"
"If it weren't for Wei Chen, we could have held on for a while longer. The Fire Source wouldn't have exploded so quickly!"
"What exactly did your master Wei Chen do?"
The elders were filled with righteous indignation, eager to drag Wei Chen out and devour him alive.
Donghua and Shaohou's expressions turned grim. Had they been ungrateful?
Although they suspected that the volcanic explosion was related to Wei Chen, given his temperament, it was impossible that it was intentional!
Donghua and Shaohou each summoned their weapons. The people of the Fire Tribe were unreasonable, and without Wei Chen present to explain, they could only endure the slander for now.
If a fight was to happen, let it be a decisive one!
"Fire Elder, we are unclear about the situation since Wei Chen is not here. I suggest we wait for him to come out and explain before making any decisions!" Shaohuang God King maintained his composure. He understood that Wei Chen had his own reasons, and it would be best to wait for him to clarify things.
If this escalated into a fight, although Donghua and Shaohou were not afraid of anything, the Fire Tribe had too many members. They were not worried about losing; they feared that too many from the Fire Tribe would be killed, creating an irreparable enmity!
The Fire Clan Elders watched Donghua and Shaohou with hawk-like gazes and coldly stated, "Don't think you can deny it. Wei Chen destroyed the Fire Source, and as his subordinates, you must also pay for its destruction!"
"The truth has not yet been established, Elder. Making rash conclusions at this time seems rather inappropriate," Shaohuang God King said. He was not known for his good temper and had already tried to ease the atmosphere with his words, but the Fire Elder's aggressive stance ignited Shaohuang God King's anger.
"No matter what, you will die here!" the Fire Elder roared.
Donghua and Shaohou realized that the Fire Tribe was cornered and no longer cared about the truth. Their Fire Source had completely collapsed, and the Fire Tribe had lost its foundation. It wouldn't be long before they became just another ordinary human tribe in the Endless Divine Realm. Their fury needed an outlet.
Since it had come to this...
Let there be battle!
The remaining few exchanged deep glances and said, "What need is there for excuses when we can easily find faults? Let these Fire Barbarians witness our might!"
Wei Chen was absent, yet the Shaohuang God King still held some authority. Moreover, surrounded by the Fire Tribe, the others were filled with rage. With the encouragement from the Shaohuang God King, they needed no further provocation and launched into battle!
It was not the Fire Tribe that struck first; it was Donghua and Shaohou who took the initiative!
They had never engaged in a proper battle within the Endless Divine Realm and were itching for a fight. The despicable Fire Tribe had repaid their kindness with enmity, and Donghua and Shaohou could no longer tolerate it!
The battle erupted in an instant!
Donghua and Shaohou faced off against thousands of Fire Tribe warriors, with even more joining the fray.
Blades flashed and swords clashed!
The chaos of combat was unrestrained!
Divine weapons gleamed!
Stars shone brightly above!
Donghua and Shaohou unleashed their abilities, mercilessly slaying members of the Fire Tribe.
During their time in the Fire Clan Secret Realm, Donghua and Shaohou had absorbed a significant amount of Fire Divine Power. Although they could not wield Divine Power directly, they had unknowingly absorbed plenty of it due to its abundance in the Fire Clan Secret Realm.
Fire Divine Power inherently carried Boisterous attributes, and those Boisterous factors had merged into their bloodlines. Standing close to the volcano's peak and gazing at the Fire Source, it would have been strange not to be infected by the Boisterous essence.
If this had occurred at another time or place, without such a concentration of Boisterous energy within them, Donghua and Shaohou might have refrained from attacking; after all, the Fire Tribe was also suffering greatly.
But this time was different. The Boisterous factors within them exploded under the pressure of being surrounded by the Fire Tribe warriors.
They showed no mercy!
Donghua and Shaohou were each a hundred meters apart, soaring in the air, forming a Seven Star Formation that balanced offense and defense perfectly.
The Fire Tribe that charged within dozens of meters could not get close to Donghua and Shaohou, as they were all cut down by their blades.
A vast surge of Stellar Power, a fierce and commanding sword aura, along with the native spiritual energy of the Ancient World!
At this moment, Donghua and Shaohou unleashed their techniques, engaging in the first battle within the Endless Divine Realm!
In these eight years, they had ample time to unite and devise such a balanced Seven Star Formation!
This battle was not unexpected for Donghua and Shaohou. Long before the Source of Fire Flower was nearly shattered by that powerful Shockwave impacting the formation set by Wei Chen, they had speculated that perhaps something would go wrong with the Source of Fire Flower. The people of the Fire Tribe, desperate, would surely act recklessly. Swearing loyalty to Wei Chen meant nothing; once the Fire Source collapsed, the impending doom of the Fire Tribe would unleash their fury upon Wei Chen, as well as Donghua and Shaohou.
The Seven Star Formation had been meticulously planned. Although they had never practiced it in real combat, they had mentally rehearsed it countless times. They had envisioned this encirclement during the gathering at the Eastern Forest Contest, preparing for the Seven Star Formation. While it appeared rough on the surface, there was intricacy within; their preparation for the formation was proof of that.
Upon their initial assembly into formation, they felt no unfamiliarity; their offensive and defensive coordination was seamless. Whether attacking or defending, they exhibited remarkably powerful results.
The Fire Elder, leading the strong members of the Fire Tribe, charged towards Donghua and Shaohou, rushing to their deaths with fervor, only to be completely annihilated by their sword aura and Stellar Power!
Before long, around Donghua and Shaohou, the bodies of the Fire Tribe had piled up densely!
The seven Great Beings of the Ancient World, in their first battle within the Endless Divine Realm, were engaged in a bloody massacre!
