Crimson Flame Canyon, located in the southwest of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains, is named for the strange, ever-burning crimson flames deep within it.

The canyon’s steep walls are a dark red, scorched by intense heat, and the air is thick with a scorching, dry atmosphere.

Ordinary plants struggle to grow here; only a few fire-resistant, unusual ferns and lichens dot the landscape.

When Ling Shuang led Lie Tian and the other wounded remnants of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, after a grueling ordeal, to the deepest part of the canyon, everyone was exhausted.

Days of fleeing, tense nerves, and untreated injuries had brought the team’s morale and stamina to rock bottom.

Before them lay a hundred-zhang-high, smooth, mirror-like crimson rock wall.

The rock wall was no ordinary rock, but a rare mineral called “Crimson Flame Crystal,” upon which burned a seemingly weak yet eternally burning pale golden flame, the intense heat distorting the air itself.

This was the entrance to the Blazing Fire Secret Realm that Ling Shuang had mentioned.

“This is it.”

Ling Shuang stopped, her pale face flushed an unnatural red from the heat, but a glimmer of hope shone in her eyes.

She turned to Lie Tian and the others, saying, “Please wait a moment while I open the entrance.”

Lie Tian and the others gazed at the burning rock wall, feeling the vast and pure fire-attribute energy contained within, and felt somewhat relieved.

This entrance to the secret realm was so unique and well-hidden; perhaps it could truly allow them to temporarily escape the pursuit of the Demon Sect and the Fusion Beast Clan.

Ling Shuang took a deep breath, suppressing her fatigue and the lingering pain from her injuries, and walked to within three zhang of the rock wall.
