Only after it is activated does it have the power to burn all things.
" Shen Mu embraced this Heavenly Fire as if hugging an octagonal crystal pillar.
The Heavenly Fire was as thick as his waist and taller than he was; together with the two Taotie Pouches, it made things very difficult for him. "You should go now! " Lady Tianyin gazed ahead, her expression grave.
"The Yin Son of Heaven will soon arrive here! " Shen Mu immediately took his leave and leaped down from Lady Tianyin's palm; the Divine Man of Kaihuang hurriedly followed. With a splash, the Divine Man of Kaihuang was stunned to see Shen Mu plunge headfirst into the sea, not standing on its surface or flying.
Fortunately, Lady Tianyin scooped him out of the sea and gently blew a breath at the two of them.
Shen Mu and the Divine Man of Kaihuang immediately flew madly back the way they had come, riding clouds and mist, covering tens of thousands of li in an instant, and soon arrived before the Tianyin Realm Boundary Stone, where they finally landed.
The Divine Man of Kaihuang was about to pass through the boundary stone when Shen Mu hastily said, "Senior, wait! " The Divine Man of Kaihuang was puzzled. He saw Shen Mu set down the Taotie Pouches and the Heavenly Fire pillar, take out a dozen small jade bottles, and pour out the dragon saliva in them. The Divine Man of Kaihuang did not understand what he was doing.
Shen Mu chanted incantations and employed a peculiar divine ability; black sand swarmed forth and burrowed into the small jade bottles one by one. Shen Mu tightened the stoppers and set a series of strange runic seals around the bottles. He opened the Divine Man of Kaihuang's clothes pocket and placed the small jade bottles inside. "After you go out, you cannot be exposed to light.
When day comes, the black sand will leave your body.
I feared you would die, so I collected some soul black sand. Once we are outside, I will refine a treasure for you that can collect the black sand during the day and let it enter your body at night.
" The Divine Man of Kaihuang showed a look of gratitude. At that moment, a violent tremor suddenly came from the Tianyin Realm. "The Yin Son of Heaven has arrived!
" Shen Mu felt a chill in his heart and turned to look back.
