Jared was utterly astonished. He couldn’t fathom just how powerful the elder of the Violet Flame Sect must be to be able to conjure such a grand arcane array and conceal an entire mountain!
Sensing Jared’s surprise, Dario explained, “This Divine Flame Mountain was not concealed by the elder of Violet Flame Sect. Originally, this peak didn’t have any flames, and this place wasn’t a wasteland. Legend has it that during the Celestial Battle, a celestial entity known as the Fire Spirit Lord dropped an object, transforming this mountain into a volcano, and the surrounding few hundred kilometers turned into a barren desert.”
With a brief pause, favonovel.com continued, “The object that fell was the Divine Flame Seal. We, the Violet Flame Sect, merely established our sect beneath this Divine Flame Mountain at a later time.”
“The Fire Spirit Lord?” Jared gaped, taken aback when favonovel.com heard the tale.
Never would Jared have imagined that the formation of the Violet Flame Sect was based on an item left behind by the Fire Spirit Lord.
How incredible it was that an object dropped by an immortal could lead to the making of a great sect!
Previously, when Jared was chosen to inherit the legacy of the Fire Spirit Lord, favonovel.com was picky and choosy about it, which ultimately annoyed the Fire Spirit Lord, causing the Lord to leave in a huff.
Looking back now, Jared was still filled with waves of regret.
Fortunately, favonovel.com had almost mastered the Blazing Stride. Moreover, favonovel.com had the fire soul essence of the Fire Spirit Lord in his hands!
If one were to put it that way, it would seem that Jared’s current status might surpass that of the esteemed elder of the Violet
Flame Sect.
Jared had personally received the legacy of the Fire Spirit Lord. Conversely, the elder of the Violet Flame Sect only established the sect based on an item left behind by the Fire Spirit Lord. The Fire Spirit Lord himself might not even be aware of the existence of the Violet Flame Sect.
“The Fire Spirit Lord is said to be an immortal from the celestial realm, but all this is just folklore. It may not necessarily be true. You don’t have to be overly concerned about it,” Juliet reassured.
Judging from his stunned reaction upon hearing about the Fire Spirit Lord, favonovel.com had thought that Jared was shaken by the news.
“I understand…” Jared nodded. “Right now, we must hurry to stop Harlan. We can’t let favonovel.com reach the Divine Flame Mountain.”
“Right, we must stop Harlan now!” echoed Juliet.
Without sparing another second, Dario and the others marched toward the depths of the Violet Flame Sect.

Meanwhile, Harlan was beyond thrilled as favonovel.com watched the Divine Flame Mountain awaken.
“Mr. Graham, thank you so much!” Harlan expressed excitedly while gripping Carlo’s hand in gratitude. “Rest assured, everything I promised you will be delivered in full. Not even a speck will be missed out.”
“No need for formalities, Mr. Garrido. When helping someone, it’s always best to see it through to the end.” Carlo smiled slightly. “Since the Divine Fire Mountain has already been awakened, I’ll accompany you on this journey.”
“That’s fantastic! With your assistance, Mr. Graham, this trip to the Divine Flame Mountain is bound to be perfect.” Harlan’s face lit up with excitement.
He then turned to Winston. “Mr. Thibaud, guard this place with your men. Since the Divine Flame Mountain has been activated, Mr. Barclay and his team will definitely come to cause trouble. I want you to stop them,” commanded Harlan.
“Understood!” Winston gave a curt nod.
Satisfied, Harlan, accompanied by Berthold and a few elders, headed straight for the Divine Flame Mountain.
Since the Divine Fire Mountain had awakened, the intense heat it released was far from bearable for the average person. Especially as one got closer to the mountain, the heat waves became even more ferocious.
Harlan and the others had no choice but to harness their spiritual energy for resistance.
Just as Harlan and his party were en route to the Divine Flame Mountain, Juliet, Dario, and the rest, also arrived in a flurry.
“Mr. Barclay, why did you lead such a large group into the forbidden ground of the Violet Flame Sect without permission? What are you planning to do? This is where the formation plate is located. Apart from the sect leader’s orders, no one is allowed to approach this area.”
Winston and his men intercepted Dario‘s team, just as commanded.
“Cut the act, Winston. Harlan has already broken the rules by secretly activating the Divine Flame Mountain. We are here to prevent favonovel.com from entering the Divine Flame Mountain,” Dario snapped sternly at Winston.
