After finishing speaking, Wan Lei hesitated, then said to the three women of Huofeng,
"There will be many battles ahead, and your strength is lacking. You won't be able to help much, and you'll be in danger in the outside world. I'll put you away for now. Once I've collected enough fire lotuses, I'll let you out to cultivate."
"Alright."
The three women of Huofeng nodded, their expressions a little dim.
When they first met Wan Lei and came to the Lei Feng Realm, they were the peak combat power of the Lei Di Hall, and they had contributed a lot in the anti-demon war.
But gradually, as Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu grew stronger, and later faced Immortal Realm experts and Demon Lords, and even now that they had arrived in the Immortal Realm, their role had become smaller and smaller, becoming more like Wan Lei's burden.
Fortunately, Wan Lei kept his promise. He did not abandon them because of their low cultivation. After bringing them to the Immortal Realm, he was still trying to help them become immortals, to help and protect them.
Wan Lei's actions proved that he was a man of his word.
From initial helplessness, they had now become fortunate and delighted.
Without Wan Lei, they would have had no hope of becoming immortals in that small world on the Holy Fire Continent, which was even inferior to the Lei Feng Realm.
Wan Lei took out the Yu Ming Diagram and put the three women away.
He had reservations about revealing the Yu Ming Diagram, but he thought that given the potential group battles ahead, he would definitely need to use his two divine artifacts, so he couldn't hide it from others.
By then, not only his companions would know, but even his enemies would know.
The main thing was that Wan Lei was very curious about how others judged his weapons as divine artifacts. But upon careful consideration, it seemed only Qiong Ku was able to recognize divine artifacts.
He himself couldn't even tell what a divine artifact was.
"This is a divine artifact?"
Just as Wan Lei's thoughts were racing, Han Xiaoyun's voice suddenly came from the side.
Damn it! I was just wondering how they judged it, and then you recognized it?
"Uh... Xiaoyun, how did you recognize it?"
Wan Lei finally had a chance to ask this question.
"It's very simple, with eyesight and experience. Those who have come into contact with divine artifacts can feel the majestic aura from them. For combat-type divine artifacts, it's not very obvious, but for rule-type and spirit treasure-type divine artifacts, it's very clear.
Anyone who has come into contact with divine artifacts can tell that yours is one."
"Is that so? Then why aren't combat-type divine artifacts obvious?"
"Because the aura of combat-type divine artifacts is more restrained. Ordinary battles can't stimulate much of it. Only when they are integrated with Dao techniques can some of it be revealed.
For example, you haven't discovered that the weapons of all four of us are divine artifacts."
Upon hearing this, Wan Lei, Fang Xiaoyu, and Dada were all greatly surprised.
Especially Dada, who thought he was the most special in the team, but now he realized he was the most ordinary. You all have divine artifacts. Are divine artifacts being sold wholesale now? Like cheap cabbage?
Fang Xiaoyu narrowed her eyes slightly, then smiled and said,
"Then you are quite capable. Your families must have important figures to be able to get divine artifacts for you."
"Not really. Our weapons are just old things our parents used. They gave us the leftovers. They said that when we become saints ourselves, we can forge our own suitable divine artifacts."
Wan Qianxin, fearing that Han Xiaoyun would reveal too much if she continued, took over the conversation.
However, he was still young and did not understand the precious value of divine artifacts. For him, this item might be truly ordinary. Having just entered the outside world, they lacked social experience and were bound to be somewhat out of touch with reality.
At this moment, Wan Lei had determined that these four youngsters had a 50% chance of being disciples of the Five Elements Hall, but he was absolutely 100% certain that their parents were Saint-level powerhouses.
Because only Saints could forge divine artifacts, and divine artifacts were rare even in the Immortal Realm. If their parents were not Saints, even if they occasionally obtained a divine artifact through incredible luck, they would definitely keep it for themselves. How could they casually let a few children carry it out? What if they lost it due to some accident? Similarly, if these four were not direct descendants of Saints, they would not possess divine artifacts. It should be known that even Saints' divine artifacts were not mass-produced; forging one or two in a lifetime was already very impressive. Any extra would definitely be given to their closest sons or most outstanding disciples.
Only the most doting parents would be willing to equip their children, even those on a trial, with divine artifacts.
At this time, Dada was so envious he couldn't speak, grunting twice and turning his head away.
The crude God Clan members didn't understand the implications and didn't realize that befriending these obviously powerful youngsters would bring immense benefits in the future. They still chose friends based on preference.
Under Wan Qianxin's leadership, Wan Lei and the other seven people flew rapidly towards the northwest.
That was the closest red dot, representing a disciple of the Five Elements Hall.
Without the burden of the three women of Huofeng, the group's speed increased, and they sped along.
All seven of them were extraordinary individuals, with combat power and talent far exceeding cultivators of the same realm, and their speed was naturally the same.
The four youngsters were very fast. Upon careful observation, Wan Lei found that they didn't seem to be using any speed divine abilities. Instead, they formed a peculiar streamlined flow of energy around their bodies, minimizing the resistance of the energy in space, and the energy flowing through their bodies could also give them a boost.
As a result, they were slightly faster than Wan Lei, but not faster than Fang Xiaoyu.
Fang Xiaoyu was of the wind element, naturally capable of manipulating air and energy for her own use, making her naturally extremely fast.
Thus, the resourceful Wan Xiaolei grabbed Fang Xiaoyu and asked her to carry him along, so as not to be embarrassed.
Soon, they arrived at the location of the red dot.
A battle had just concluded there.
On the magma ocean, a huge beast carcass was floating, with more than a dozen corpses of loose cultivators on it. The surrounding spiritual energy was in disarray, clearly indicating that a fierce battle had just taken place.
A handsome disciple of the Five Elements Hall, dressed in red and with a cold gaze, scanned the approaching group. Blood was still dripping from the long saber in his hand.
"Everyone, you're late. I've already collected the fire lotus."
The disciple of the Five Elements Hall revealed a hint of mockery and ridicule at the corner of his mouth.
"We didn't come for the fire lotus."
Wan Lei stepped forward to speak.
"Oh? Then what are you all here for?"
"For you."
"For me?"
The disciple of the Five Elements Hall looked at Wan Lei in confusion.
"My name is Wan Lei."
Instantly, the disciple of the Five Elements Hall's eyes blazed with light. His gaze was filled with joy, yet also with fighting spirit.
The corners of his mouth turned up in a high arc, unable to conceal the excitement in his tone, and he said word by word,
"You're called Wan Lei?!"
