Chapter 15: Thundering Fury Mansion

Travis didn't waste any time. He quickly released vines that wrapped around Tammy's wrists. After some investigation, Travis frowned. "The influenza has deeply penetrated the bone marrow. It's difficult to completely cure it with just elixirs..." "Is there any way?" Iwao asked anxiously. "I can only help alleviate it temporarily but to completely eradicate this strain of influenza, we'll need pure Flame Power," Travis replied with a serious expression. Despite his usual jovial demeanor, he was earnest when it came to serious matters. "Alleviation first. Even if it's just that, it'll help. I'll take my sister to find an expert to treat her!" Iwao's pupils flickered with concern. In the past, they had relied on elixirs for relief. The elixir, known as Three Fire Pills, contained three types of fire energy, which could suppress influenza. "Alright." Travis controlled the vines to pierce Tammy's skin. Immediately, a bone-chilling coldness emanated from her, accompanied by a visible ice-blue light that sent shivers down the spine upon contact. Eventually, the vines absorbed all the coldness from Tammy's body. After a while, Travis breathed a sigh of relief. "Burp." A bone-chilling coldness erupted from his mouth. Tammy's complexion improved considerably. After a moment, she slowly opened her eyes. "Iwao..." "Sis, don't worry too much. I'll take you to get treated!" Iwao reassured her hastily. A faint smile appeared on Tammy's lips as she softly said, "Iwao, you don't need to bear too much burden for me. I... I don't want to be a burden to you." "How could you say that? I have a close friend who is an excellent physician. I'll take you to see him! Once you recover, you can start cultivating. By then, I'll teach you every day!" Iwao comforted her while gently coaxing. Before long, Tammy drifted off to sleep. Iwao reached out and picked up Travis, walking outside the cave. "Is there any hope for my sister's condition?" His arm trembled slightly, and there was a hint of tremor in his voice. Facing an enemy several times his size, Iwao never flinched. Even with severe injuries, he wouldn't blink an eye! But when it came to his sister's influenza, he felt utterly helpless. "I can temporarily help her extract the coldness, but I can't completely eradicate the influenza. As I mentioned before, only the purest Flame Power can expel the influenza... Are there any sects nearby specializing in Flame Power?" Travis inquired. "Yes..." Iwao's fist clenched slightly. "Fiery Fire Sect!" Compared to the Wind Sword Sect, the Fiery Fire Sect was much stronger. It was the strongest sect in the Land of the Five Kingdoms! However, joining the Fiery Fire Sect had many restrictions. One must possess an Illusionary Beast of Fourth Rank or above, and it must lean towards the fire attribute. Only then would there be a chance to enter the Fiery Fire Sect for cultivation? Of course, there were exceptions. If one's talent was strong enough, the Fiery Fire Sect would disregard all rules and accept them! Despite being the Great Cyan Empire's top talent, Iwao had never caught the Fiery Fire Sect's attention. From this, one could see how difficult it was to enter. "Alright, after we're done here, we'll head to the Fiery Fire Sect!" Travis casually remarked. "Go to the Fiery Fire Sect... Do you know how strict their disciple recruitment is?" Iwao couldn't help but quip. "To even enter, you need a Fourth Rank Illusionary Beast. With your measly First Rank, you wouldn't even pass the entrance!" Travis became furious. "Nonsense! It irks me! I am the Primordial Hongmeng Tree, traversing the universe, a presence that has dominated the ages! No one in this world can look down on me! In the past..." "Forget the past, live in the present!" Iwao patted Travis's leafy green head and sighed. There was still a chance. Every year, the Fiery Fire Sect would hold tests in the Imperial City of the Five Kingdoms to select disciples. Whoever managed to rank first would be considered a special talent and might be admitted out of turn. "Considering, these two days should be the enrollment days for the Fiery Fire Sect. I need to hurry to the Imperial City!" Iwao looked at the clouds in front of him with a determined look in his eyes. Since the path was laid out before him, he had to persevere no matter what! "Swish! Swish! Swish!" At that moment, the sound of breaking air came from the cliff. Iwao was startled and quickly hid behind a boulder, listening carefully. A total of seven people passed through the thick fog and headed toward the depths of the Purple Chain Mountain! "Does the Leach Family think that with just half an old treasure map, they can join forces with us to explore the ruins of the Purple Chain Mountain? It's ridiculous!" "Since we have the opportunity to monopolize, why bring them along?" "Hurry, the time is approaching." The conversation of several people drifted into Iwao's ears with the wind. "Clayton Family's people?" Iwao narrowed his eyes slightly. From this, it seemed that the situation had become very clear. With one-half of the old treasure map from the Leach Family now in his possession, obtained from Diata's Storage Ring, and the Clayton Family using other means to locate the specific location of the ruins of the Purple Chain Mountain, they intended to leave the Leach Family behind and claim it for themselves! After thinking it over, Iwao decided to make a big move! He approached and gently lifted Tammy, then swiftly passed through the thick fog, tracking them. With the Myriad Wood Soaring Body, Iwao could sense the surrounding flora. In the vast forest, everything was visible! Iwao followed the seven people from afar, maintaining a safe distance. "Kid, you have the guts to join this kind of fun," Travis sighed. "I used to be such a stable, conservative tree. Now look at me, all because of you!" "Don't try to sugarcoat it," Iwao smirked. Deep in the Purple Chain Mountain, there were occasional roars of beasts, their voices thunderous. The closer they got, the more they could sense the oppressive and ferocious beast's intent! It was no wonder few dared to enter this place. There were too many beasts, and a slight mistake could make them prey. In just half an hour, the seven members of the Clayton Family had experienced at least five waves of beast attacks! Fortunately, they were strong and had a narrow escape each time. The leader should be Helio, the head of the Clayton Family, with the strength of the Sixth Level of the Earth Spirit Realm. The other six were also experts from the Clayton Family, all at the Fifth Level of Earth Spirit Realm! Finally, the figures of the few stopped abruptly. Iwao looked ahead and a flash of astonishment crossed his eyes. On the cliff in front, there was a cave hidden by overgrown trees! Thundering Fury Mansion!
