Yan Huang Fei Huo (Flying Sword) (Red): Blazing world flames, sky-burning fire, forged from the primal essence of heavenly fire from the nine heavens, a pair with Jing Lei Zi Dian.
Jing Lei Zi Dian, Yan Huang Fei Huo (Collected): 2/2
Jie Huo (After Yan Huang Fei Huo strikes a target, there is a 30% chance to inflict a burning status on the opponent for 15 seconds)
Fei Huo (When piloting Yan Huang Fei Huo, it can transform into a streak of flying fire for attack, with an area of effect of fire arc splash within three meters)
Jie Huo Shao Tian Jian Zhen (Yan Huang Fei Huo transforms into flames to form a formation, within the coverage area, fire attribute attack power is strengthened by 100%, and lightning is absorbed to continuously restore stamina and injuries. This sword formation is effective for both friend and foe)
Lei Huo Jie Tian (Jing Lei Zi Dian and Yan Huang Fei Huo can simultaneously set up a sword formation, the effects of thunder and Jie Huo can stack and be amplified by 15%)

Yu Sui (Self-detonation of Jing Lei Zi Dian and Yan Huang Fei Huo, unleashing a world-shattering strike)
...
The effects of Yan Huang Fei Huo are very similar to Jing Lei Zi Dian.
However, Bai Ye pondered carefully and felt this was somewhat redundant. These were originally a pair of swords, so their effects were naturally similar. The key was the significant additional amplification in power when used simultaneously.
As a single sword, it appeared to be of Red quality, but in reality, it was only at Black quality. With both swords in hand, it truly became a Red quality flying sword.
Bai Ye happily had the Steel Slime swallow the flying sword. His Steel Slime’s quality improvement was also nearing completion, requiring only a little over a hundred thousand growth points.
Simultaneously, his King's Treasure collection gained another item.
"Pururu, pururu, pururu..."
At this moment, Gao Ming's Den Den Mushi rang.
Bai Ye picked it up casually and smiled, "I've received the item."
Gao Ming chuckled, "That's good."
Bai Ye said, "You were so quick to give it, it seems things went smoothly."
Gao Ming replied, "It's not entirely over yet. There are quite a few restricted zones, and we want to make a significant impact in that region, so we're conducting more thorough explorations. However, the information you provided was completely accurate, so we had no reason to withhold the item."
Bai Ye asked, "So, the reason for contacting me is to get more intelligence?"
Gao Ming honestly said, "It would be best, of course, but we don't need it urgently for now. We need at least a month to complete the exploration of all the black-clothed men's restricted zones and some hidden quests. Moreover, the items produced in the dangerous areas there are quite good."
Bai Ye inquired, "Then why are you looking for me?"
Gao Ming replied, "You asked me to investigate something."
"Oh?" Bai Ye asked, "Liu Shiyue?"
Gao Ming nodded. "Liu Shiyue is the vice-leader of the Hidden Dragon Association. His influence is very significant. Currently, the leader of the Hidden Dragon Association is named Nan Liang, but Nan Liang, Liu Shiyue, and another vice-leader named Jin Jinse are on equal footing."
Bai Ye remarked, "This structure is quite interesting. What's the reason?"
Gao Ming asked, "Do you know the origin of the Hidden Dragon Association?"
Bai Ye replied, "I know a little. They almost all come from an ability world, a powerful upper-tier world. The Hidden Dragon Association was initially founded by chosen ones from that world who successfully left the world battlefield."
"The original intention was, naturally, to help the chosen ones from that world adapt better to the world battlefield. By gathering people from the start, they could establish an advantage, control restricted zones, hunt others, and obtain more resources."
Gao Ming continued, "Yes, and Liu Shiyue's father is a core member of the Hidden Dragon Association, not a core member within the world battlefield, but outside of it. His father lived until the end twenty years ago and successfully left the world battlefield."
Bai Ye realized, "No wonder the vice-leader can stand on equal footing with the leader. Is the other one in a similar situation?"
Gao Ming said, "Jin Jinse is even more so. The Hidden Dragon Association has three founders, and one of them is her grandfather."
Bai Ye couldn't help but grin. What was this? A second-generation heir, and a third-generation heir?
However, relying on background to gain power meant their strength might be...
Regardless, Bai Ye had never heard of these two people in his past life. As for the leader Nan Liang, Bai Ye had some impression; he was indeed the first leader of the Hidden Dragon Association, although the position was later changed.
Gao Ming continued, "Previously, Liu Shiyue was in the beast-taming area, leading people to capture sea beasts."
Bai Ye asked, "Sea beasts?"
Gao Ming nodded. "Yes, they seem to be acquiring rideable sea beasts, possibly for venturing out to sea. The specifics are still unclear."
Bai Ye inquired, "Are they still in the beast-taming area now?"
Gao Ming replied, "That's also unclear. After all, he's a vice-leader; it's not easy to keep tabs on him. We can only monitor the members of the Hidden Dragon Association to infer their movements. As it stands, they should have already acquired enough sea beasts."
Bai Ye nodded. "Help me keep an eye on them. I need to know Liu Shiyue's movements and where he's going."
Gao Ming cautiously probed, "Bai Ye, why are you monitoring Liu Shiyue?"
Bai Ye didn't hide it. "He has to die."
There was no reason to conceal this matter.
Gao Ming would certainly not collude with the Hidden Dragon Association. The Evil Spirit Group was established by leveraging their opposition to the Hidden Dragon Association.
The future was uncertain, but as it stood, since the Evil Spirit Group had declared war on the Hidden Dragon Association, they had to be on opposite sides. Only then could the Evil Spirit Group claim a righteous cause.
Therefore, Bai Ye was not afraid of speaking his mind.
Furthermore, Bai Ye knew very well that Gao Ming was waiting for this answer.
With this answer, Gao Ming could wholeheartedly assist him, as Gao Ming, a core member of the Evil Spirit Group, would likely be pleased to see Liu Shiyue dead.
As for why?
It wasn't important.
Gao Ming's tone carried a hint of excitement. He had indeed been waiting for this answer. Smiling, he said, "Alright, I will personally oversee this matter. I'll contact you when I have news."
Bai Ye nodded. "Goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
Bai Ye hung up the Den Den Mushi. He wasn't too anxious about Liu Shiyue's matter.
Because, he would definitely die, and at Bai Ye's own hands.
Bai Ye had received benefits and had also promised Jin Sha.
In a way, Bai Ye considered himself a man of his word.
As Bai Ye mused, he stepped across the boundary of the area.
Passing through the surging light curtain, Bai Ye immediately smelled the scent of gunpowder.
What appeared before Bai Ye was a dilapidated city, with towering buildings that had long been abandoned, giving off an aura of decay. The streets were empty, with wrecked cars scattered everywhere.
Bai Ye took a deep breath and couldn't help but spread his arms.
A familiar scent!
