At this moment, Xia Ling and the two brothers of the Yuan Clan, upon seeing the Yin Yang Red Fire Bead in Ding Fan’s hand, all revealed a hint of joy in their eyes. Their eyes flickered slightly, and they excitedly said to Ding Fan:

"Congratulations, Brother Ding, for acquiring such a Divine Artifact. With this Yin Yang Red Fire Bead, such Divine Beasts like the Blazing Flame Serpent will be beneath your notice!"

"Indeed, Brother Ding, since you have obtained the Yin Yang Red Fire Bead, your overall power has risen more than a level!"

At this moment, after listening to the words of Xia Ling and others, a hint of complacency also flashed in Ding Fan’s eyes. His eyes flickered slightly, and then his gaze slowly turned to the Blazing Flame Serpent nearby.

At this moment, the Blazing Flame Serpent’s eyes were filled with a look of longing, its cold eyes looking towards Ding Fan. At this moment, Ding Fan sensed a pleading expression from its eyes.

And at this moment, when Ding Fan sensed this, his gaze flashed as well. After pondering briefly, a powerful surge of energy erupted from within Ding Fan’s body. As this surge of energy burst forth, the formation restricting the inner core of the Blazing Flame Serpent suddenly cracked open.

At this moment, as the formation split apart, the inner core of the Blazing Flame Serpent instantly flew towards its mouth. Almost in the blink of an eye, the inner core returned to the serpent’s body.

Once the inner core was back inside, a surge of immensely powerful Life Force erupted from within the Blazing Flame Serpent’s body once more.

At this moment, upon seeing Ding Fan’s actions, everyone around showed a look of astonishment in their eyes. Their eyes flickered slightly, and they spoke to Ding Fan in shock:

"Ding... Brother Ding, you actually returned the inner core to the Blazing Flame Serpent. Don’t you know how much powerful energy is contained within this inner core? Such a precious treasure, how could you return it!?"

"Exactly, Brother Ding, the inner core of the Blazing Flame Serpent must not be returned to it. What if it attacks us again now? If that happens, all our previous efforts will have been in vain!"

At this moment, having heard the words of the others, Ding Fan’s brows furrowed deeply, his eyes flickered slightly, and he slowly said to them:

"No, since the Blazing Flame Serpent has handed over the Yin Yang Red Fire Bead to me, I should return its inner core. This act of betrayal and injustice, I, Ding Fan, cannot commit!"

At this moment, upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, a trace of shame appeared in everyone’s eyes, their eyes flickered slightly, and they all lowered their heads.

And at this moment, seeing the reaction of everyone, the corner of Ding Fan’s mouth curved slightly, his eyes flickered slightly, and then he turned his head towards the direction of the Blazing Flame Serpent.

By now, the Blazing Flame Serpent had already heard Ding Fan’s words. Upon seeing Ding Fan’s gaze, the cold murderous aura on its body gradually dissipated. Its massive body trembled slightly, and then it crawled away into the distance.

Meanwhile, Zhuge Qing watched the departing Blazing Flame Serpent, his eyes flickering slightly. After sizing up Ding Fan several times, a moment of admiration sprayed forth from Zhuge Qing’s eyes.

Once the Blazing Flame Serpent had gone far away, Ding Fan’s gaze shifted slightly. After pondering briefly, he slowly turned his eyes back towards the people around him, the corner of his mouth curved slightly.

"Now, with the Yin Yang Red Fire Bead in hand, it’s time for us to head to the next secret passage..."

At this moment, upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling and the others nodded gently twice, then softly responded to Ding Fan.

Meanwhile, the remaining two divine warriors, upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, showed a hesitant expression on their faces. To be honest, they hadn’t been with Ding Fan from the beginning. Although Ding Fan had just saved them, in their hearts, they believed Ding Fan was also self-serving. The only thought in these two people’s minds now was how to seize the treasures from Ding Fan’s hands.

The two exchanged a glance, from each other’s eyes sensing a greedy light. Their eyes flickered slightly, and they stepped forward, respectfully saying to Ding Fan:

"Brother Ding, could you possibly take us, the brothers, along? Our lives were saved by you, Brother Ding, and we wish to follow Ding Fan alongside you!"

When these two expressed themselves, a hint of surprise appeared in Ding Fan’s eyes. His eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded slowly to them.

"No problem, stay by my side. With so many of us, we can look after each other!"

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, the two instantly showed a look of excitement in their eyes. The corners of their mouths slightly lifted, and they respectfully said to Ding Fan:

"Well, we must thank Brother Ding here!"

Listening to their words, Ding Fan’s eyes were filled with indifference. To be honest, Ding Fan wouldn’t care about these irrelevant people, while these two were rejoicing.

Beside them, a sharp light flashed in Zhuge Qing’s eyes. His eyes flickered slightly, and he coldly looked towards the direction of the two.

Meanwhile, Ding Fan completely ignored this, his eyes flickered slightly, and he slowly said to everyone around:

"Ladies and gentlemen, let’s see whom the inheritance in the Sirius Tomb will ultimately belong to!"

At this moment, after hearing Ding Fan’s words, a gleam of anticipation instantly welled up in the eyes of everyone, their gazes flickering slightly, and then they all nodded towards Ding Fan.

At this moment, after seeing the reaction of the crowd, a sharp light instantly flashed in Ding Fan’s eyes, his gaze flickering slightly, and then his body lightly stepped forward.

Almost in an instant, Ding Fan’s figure disappeared into the magma, and when those around saw this, a look of shock appeared in everyone’s eyes, their eyes widened, and then everyone began searching in the direction where Ding Fan had been.

"Brother Ding, where are you going now?"

At this moment, Xia Ling’s anxious voice came out of her mouth, and just when she was extremely worried, violent bubbles began to rise slowly from the magma, and as these bubbles rolled out, Ding Fan’s body instantly emerged from the magma.

At this moment, on the surface of Ding Fan’s body, the Yin Yang Red Fire Bead was emitting a faint glow, preventing the magma from getting close to him, while beneath him was the Blazing Flame Serpent.

The Blazing Flame Serpent was also releasing terrifying temperatures from its body, with a powerful, domineering aura bursting forth instantly.

At this moment, those around, upon seeing this, finally heaved a sigh of relief, their eyes flickering slightly, before focusing their gazes on Ding Fan.

Seeing everyone’s gaze, Ding Fan’s lips curled into a slight arc, his gaze flickered slightly, and he said slowly to the crowd:

"Everyone, follow me!"

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, a difficult expression appeared in everyone’s eyes as they looked at the endless magma before them, and for a moment, no one dared to take a step forward.

Seeing their reaction, Ding Fan’s lips curled into a slight arc, paused slightly, and he spoke gently to the crowd:

"Don’t be afraid, I can protect you!"

As Ding Fan’s words came out, hesitation still filled everyone’s eyes. Truth be told, feeling the terrifying temperature emanating from the magma, none of them dared to step forward.

Seeing their reaction, Ding Fan’s brow furrowed slightly, then he turned his gaze towards Xia Ling, and in a calm voice, he spoke:

"Xia Ling, you trust my words, don’t you?"

Hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s gaze flickered slightly, her lips trembled, then she nodded slowly towards Ding Fan.

Seeing Xia Ling’s reaction, Ding Fan’s lips curled into a slight arc, raising slightly, and he said slowly to Xia Ling:

"Jump up, I’ll keep you safe!"

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, trust appeared instantly in Xia Ling’s eyes, she nodded gently, then leapt towards Ding Fan.

When Xia Ling jumped up, a pale yellow light instantly enveloped her body, and as Ding Fan extended his hand, he caught her instantly.

Sitting on the Blazing Flame Serpent, surprise instantly appeared in Xia Ling’s eyes. Her gaze flickered slightly, and then she exclaimed joyfully to Ding Fan:

"Brother Ding, why don’t I feel any heat at all?"

Hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan’s lips also raised slightly, his tone paused, then he spoke slowly to Xia Ling:

"Because I used the Yin Yang Red Fire Bead to shield you from these terrifying temperatures, even if you were to touch the magma, nothing would happen."

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, surprise instantly flashed in Xia Ling’s eyes, and she excitedly surveyed her surroundings.

When the others around saw that nothing happened to Xia Ling, a look of surprise appeared in their eyes, their gazes flickering slightly, and only then did they slightly trust Ding Fan.

At this moment, Zhuge Qing, upon seeing this, also curled his lips into a slight arc, his gaze flickering slightly, and then he said to Ding Fan loudly:

"Brother Ding, here I come!"

As he said this, Zhuge Qing’s body instantly jumped up, carrying a gust of wind as he leapt fiercely towards Ding Fan.

And as Zhuge Qing leapt, a faint glow enveloped his body, and the gentle power instantly shielded him from the terrifying temperature outside.
