Primordial Star Scripture-Chapter 693 - 645 Red-Crowned Fire Python and Green Flame Grass
```
The gray-clothed martial artist spoke, and the other three also turned to look into the distant void.
When they saw that one of them had the aura of a Four Tribulations true god, the slender and graceful female martial artist "Ruan Yuan" raised her eyebrows slightly. "Hmm, why is there a Four Tribulations true god?"
"Could it be that Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen have also invited this person for our mission?"
"To pick ’Fire Elemental Lotus Seeds,’ we have to face an ancient beast of the Middle God King level. Do they think this is a joke? When they arrive, I must ask them properly!"

Ruan Yuan, with her eyebrows tightly knit, was clearly quite dissatisfied.
"Perhaps this person has some unique abilities to be invited. Friends Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen who summoned us for this task wouldn’t act recklessly," said the petite and adorable female martial artist "Bi" softly.
"A Four Tribulations true god, no matter how special, cannot be that extraordinary!" Ruan Yuan snorted coldly.
As the four of them were conversing, three figures in the sky finally flew into the Black Mist Valley.
These three figures were none other than Ye Chen, Dongfang Xuanyi, and Wang Chen, who after escorting Nie Ningnin to a safe area in the Icy Realm, had hurried to the Fiery Realm.
All three were entering the Nine Suns Ancient Land for the first time.
After stepping into the Fiery Realm from the Icy Realm with the help of ten thousand Snow Crystals to traverse the boundary barrier, Ye Chen and his companions were deeply moved.
The Fiery Realm was even more vigorously dense with true qi than the Icy Realm they had previously been in.
Moreover, in stark contrast to the bone-chilling cold of the Icy Realm, the Fiery Realm was a completely scorching expanse.
The terrifying ancient beasts living within were more than tenfold in number compared to the Icy Realm.
En route to Black Mist Valley, the trio encountered attacks by lower God King level beasts no less than ten times.
Naturally, the trio made no small gains; along the way, they each collected two to three thousand Fire Crystals.
Just as "Snow Crystals" were the pass to enter the Fiery Realm from the Icy Realm, "Fire Crystals" are the pass to enter the deepest part of the Nine Suns Realm from the Fiery Realm, and Ye Chen and his companions needed to collect them as well. Continue reading stories on novelbuddy
Escorting Nie Ningnin, battling ancient beasts, and collecting "Fire Crystals," delayed their journey considerably, and by the time they arrived at Black Mist Valley, the other four were already waiting there.
"The four friends have arrived so quickly!"
As they landed beside the four, Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen immediately addressed Ruan Yuan and her companions with smiles.
At the same time, Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen began introducing the identities of the four to Ye Chen.
"This tall, beautiful female martial artist is our senior sister from Tai Wu Divine Institute, Ruan Yuan. Friend Ye Chen, Senior Sister Ruan Yuan is even more powerful than the two of us, and in Tai Wu Divine Institute, she has been adored by many male martial artists," they first introduced the slender and graceful female martial artist "Ruan Yuan."
Ye Chen glanced at "Ruan Yuan" and noticed that although she possessed a somewhat delicate and beautiful face, her eyes and thin lips made her appear quite harsh and difficult to get along with.
Having someone like Jiang Yao, a beauty beyond compare, and having seen Divine Lady Long Li who was on par with Jiang Yao, Ye Chen was unimpressed.
Not to mention Ruan Yuan’s looks were no match for Jiang Yao’s and Long Li’s, even their demeanor was far from Ruan Yuan’s reach.
Ye Chen didn’t say much about Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen’s praises for Ruan Yuan, merely smiling and nodding at her before shifting his gaze to the other three.
Upon hearing Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen’s words of praise, Ruan Yuan’s face revealed a faint smile.
Although her appearance did not rival that of the stunning Divine Lady Long Li, she was indeed popular in Tai Wu Divine Institute, and was nearly always the center of attention wherever she went.
Ruan Yuan thoroughly enjoyed this feeling.
However, when she noticed that the Four Tribulations true god youth in Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen’s company merely gave her a cursory glance before moving on, the smile on Ruan Yuan’s face stiffened a bit. She frowned slightly and asked, "I still don’t know the name of this Four Tribulations true god friend!"
Ruan Yuan deliberately emphasized the words "Four Tribulations true god," her tone carrying a hint of mockery.
"This is Friend Ye Chen!" Upon hearing Ruan Yuan emphasize the words "Four Tribulations true god" with a tone of disdain, Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen were taken aback.
They knew well the extent of Ye Chen’s prowess!
Even for their senior sister Ruan Yuan, they were aware that she was definitely no match for Ye Chen.

If it weren’t for Ye Chen mentioning it to the two on the way, telling them not to reveal his method of killing the Golden Light Quintuplets to avoid trouble, Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen couldn’t wait to speak of Ye Chen’s wonders directly to the four people in front of them.
Although they knew that Ye Chen was reluctant to reveal his trump cards, both of them were also unwilling to see Ye Chen being belittled. Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen said to Ruan Yuan, "Sister Ruan Yuan, Martial Artist Ye Chen is actually very strong, not as simple as his realm appears!"
"Oh?" Ruan Yuan frowned slightly. Just as she was about to ask more, Ye Chen smiled and shook his head.
He certainly had no desire to show off to this stranger.
Ye Chen turned to the other three, "I still don’t know the names of these other three Martial Artists."
Distracted by Ye Chen’s change of subject, Ruan Yuan felt a twinge of irritation: "Hmph, I’d like to see just how formidable you are. Flame Mountain is no ordinary place; once inside, if you are not strong enough, you’ll surely suffer!"
Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen, unaware of Ruan Yuan’s thoughts, introduced the remaining three to Ye Chen upon hearing his inquiry.
"This lady Martial Artist is named ’Chen Bi’; the one in white is called ’He Ye’; and the one in gray is called ’Tang Xuan’. These three are well-known powerful Nine Tribulations True Gods from our Lingxuan God City."
The other three did not have the same overbearing airs as Ruan Yuan; they all gave Ye Chen a smiling salute.
"The three of us couldn’t compare to sister Ruan Yuan, Dongfang, and Martial Artist Wang Chen. Sister Ruan Yuan is quite famous among the True Gods of Tai Wu Divine Institute. Dongfang and Martial Artist Wang Chen have also joined the Tai Wu Divine Institute and are outstanding talents from the mansion of the city lord of Lingxuan God City. Plus, with Martial Artist Ye Chen, our trip to Flame Mountain now seems to have a greater chance of success," the white-clad youth spoke smoothly, complimenting everyone around him.
After the introductions, Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen didn’t indulge in much idle chat.
Dongfang Xuanyi directly said, "Originally, we planned for six people to work together, but on the way, we met Martial Artist Ye Chen, so for this trip to Flame Mountain, the seven of us will act together."
"As for the ’Fire Elemental Lotus Seeds’, we’ll stick to the usual rule. Whatever we get, the seven of us will share equally."
Ye Chen, Chen Bi, He Ye, and Tang Xuan all nodded their heads, Ruan Yuan glanced at Ye Chen and then nodded as well.
Seeing this, Wang Chen smiled and added, "The place in Flame Mountain that has the ’Fire Elemental Lotus Seeds’, Dongfang and I will lead everyone there."
"However, before we set off, we must also remind all Martial Artists."
"The Fiery Realm is already much more dangerous than the Icy Realm, and Flame Mountain, being situated deeper within the Fiery Realm, is even more perilous. Even though our strength is strong among the Nine Tribulations True Gods and even sufficient to suppress quite a few Lower God Kings, we must still act with caution!"
"Otherwise, if anyone were to fall in this Nine Suns Ancient Land, they would be dead without a trace!"
Hearing Wang Chen’s words, the remaining six nodded solemnly.
The Nine Suns Ancient Land is a remnant of the Heavenly Divine Venerable, with many ferocious ancient beasts released by the Southern Territory King Mansion, and numerous dangerous checkpoints established.
Even Middle God Kings would not dare to say they could be absolutely safe, let alone that they were just Nine Tribulations True Gods!
"However, everyone need not worry too much. The Divine King relative who informed us of the secret of the ’Fire Elemental Lotus Seeds’ has already scouted Flame Mountain. He has told us much about the dangers, so as long as we are cautious, there should not be any major problems."
"We will work together to deal with the ancient beasts around Flame Mountain."
"The main thing to look out for is the demonic beast guarding the Fire Lotus area in the depths of Flame Mountain—a Middle God King level ’Red-Crowned Fire Python’! This ’Red-Crowned Fire Python’ is said to have a strength that is almost on par with an Upper God King. To obtain the Fire Elemental Lotus Seeds, this ’Red-Crowned Fire Python’ is our biggest challenge!" Dongfang Xuanyi added.
Hearing about the guarding beast "Red-Crowned Fire Python" having a strength close to that of an Upper God King made everyone’s expressions change, even Ruan Yuan and Ye Chen became truly serious.
The gray-clad youth "Tang Xuan" even showed a fearful expression, "A strength close to that of an Upper God King… the few of us absolutely can’t match that!"
At this point, Wang Chen waved his hands, "Of course, obtaining the Fire Elemental Lotus Seeds won’t be easy, but we haven’t come unprepared."
"On this trip, the Divine King of our family bestowed upon us a Divine Treasure, called ’Green Flame Grass.’" Wang Chen flipped his hand, and three foot-long green plants with faintly distinctive fiery patterns naturally grown on them were revealed, encased in a white jade box.
Ye Chen noticed that this "Green Flame Grass" emitted a faint fishy scent, and what was more extraordinary was the unusual flame patterns that naturally grew in rings around the three green grasses.
Wang Chen explained, "This ’Green Flame Grass’ has a great attraction to the ’Red-Crowned Fire Python’. All we need to do is allocate some individuals to ignite this grass outside to lure the ’Red-Crowned Fire Python’ out from its guarding spot."
"Then, the others will head to the Fire Lotus location to pick the ’Fire Elemental Lotus Seeds’. As long as we get the seeds before the ’Red-Crowned Fire Python’ notices, we won’t even need to fight it, and our mission will be accomplished!"
After Wang Chen’s explanation, the remaining few examined the three "Green Flame Grasses" in the white jade box. Ruan Yuan took a careful look at the grasses and then nodded, "This is indeed the ’Green Flame Grass’ that can attract a demon like the ’Red-Crowned Fire Python’."
"However, both luring the ’Red-Crowned Fire Python’ away from its territory and collecting the ’Fire Elemental Lotus Seeds’ are extremely dangerous endeavors. After all, any mishap could very likely lead to a direct confrontation with the ’Red-Crowned Fire Python’. How should we seven allocate our tasks?"
