Chapter 970 Red Flame Palace
In the history books of demons, the status of female demons was not so low from the beginning.
At first they are similar to the female cultivators in the world of immortality. You can see that they also belong to different sects and families, and there are also female generals.
A hundred years before the demon entered the galaxy, these female generals had achieved many military exploits and led their armies to fight against alien races.
But gradually, the number of female generals dwindled and they no longer appeared.
Women's low mental power has become the norm, and they no longer practice spiritual power.
"You are sympathetic. Why don't you worry about yourself, whether you will become like them. Female slaves have always been a burden to the clan, and now that there is no ceremony to exchange saints, it is even more useless."
The priest warned her, "Don't offend the king by sympathizing with them, otherwise I won't be able to protect you."
Tang Yue felt contempt and hatred from his words. Why?
The priest stepped into the front hall of Red Flame Palace, and Tang Yue followed him in.
"See the priest." A group of men in linen clothes knelt on the ground, their voices trembling.
The priest said calmly: "Get up. From now on, you will listen to Yue's arrangements for the chosen girl. She is delicate and frail and is not able to make swords by herself. You can do whatever she asks you to do."
"Yes." The craftsmen responded fearfully.
It turned out that the priest, like Tang Jinghui, thought that she did not know how to make swords and wanted to let these people do it directly.
A green light flew over. The priest reached out to grab it and opened his hand. It turned out to be a letter.
He read a few lines and the expression on his mask turned serious.
"I'll leave first. I'll send Wei Zhi over to serve you later."
The priest drifted away, and it seemed that something urgent had happened.
Tang Yue was left alone to face the people kneeling on the ground.
"Everyone, please stand up first. Who is the person in charge here?"
A man with a mustache stood up and said, "The villain Hu Shan is the leader here."
This guy's name is quite normal.
"Can you take me to visit the Red Flame Palace?"
"Of course, please wait a moment. I'll tell them to go to work first. The Scarlet Flame Palace was only opened recently, and there is still a lot to do."
Applause whispered instructions to the dozens of people, and they dispersed and went in different directions.
"Follow me." Manager Hu led her into the corridor on the right.
Suddenly, she felt a malicious gaze, and when she looked back, she saw a tall, strong man hurriedly lowering his head to cover up what he had just done.
Tang Yue remembered that the priest had ordered that these people be castrated in order to maintain the purity of the chosen women, and thought that many of them would come here to hate themselves.
Manager Hu did not notice her movements and explained from the front: "The Red Flame Palace is mainly divided into three parts, the main forging hall, the quenching underground chamber and the weapons treasure house."
The further inside, the higher the temperature became, and Tang Yue saw faint fire coming from the entrance in front.
Entering it, there is a huge furnace in the center, surrounded by dozens of casting platforms. Each casting platform is covered with hammer marks and runes. You can tell at a glance that it is used for forging weapons.
"The most precious thing in the Crimson Flame Palace is the famous underground Crimson Flame Furnace. It was built by the King himself. The materials are the bones of the Emperor's mother, and what burns in it is the true fire of the sun that will never be extinguished."< br>
Tang Yue looked at the furnace, which was glowing with cold metal and was several meters wide and high. He felt like he heard something extraordinary, "You said this was made from the bones of the Emperor's mother?"
"Yes, the bones of the Emperor's Mother are the only material in the lower world that will not melt in the true fire of the sun."
"Um, is the Emperor's mother still a human?" How could she still take out her bones and make them into such a big thing?
Manager Hu hurriedly knelt down, "I am so scared that I dare not disrespect the emperor's mother."
"Sorry, I made a mistake. I just got here and don't understand these things." Tang Yue pulled him up.
Manager Hu wiped the sweat from his head, "The selected girl can ask some things, but we can't tell." "Okay, then can you tell me why the Scarlet Flame Palace is closed?"
"Firstly, the king handed over the casting of weapons to the Tang family; secondly, the king didn't like people of the same clan killing each other, so he ordered to stop forging superior weapons. With those not-so-good weapons, casualties can be reduced. Less.”
Tang Yue feels that if this matter is true, it shows that the United States is very powerful and actively restricting weapons will not bring insecurity.
"Is this really the sun's fire?" Tang Yue approached the stove and took a closer look at the flames coming out of it.
Legend has it that the True Fire of the Sun is the original fire of the Great Sun Golden Crow, the divine beast of innate fire.
It is dark inside and bright outside, blooming with dazzling golden light, containing the most powerful power of Yang, which can burn all things, restrain evil spirits, and never be extinguished.
The fire does appear to be bright on the outside and dark on the inside.
Manager Hu stopped her and said, "It is not safe to get too close to Yue Xuan. It is dangerous. I will prove it for you."
He took out a pot of water and poured it forward. Fire burst out of the stove and burned all the water.
Tang Yue was stunned. The only fire that could burn water was the fire of the sun.
"Then if you put the materials in, they will be burned away. How can you make a sword?"
"We will use our mental power to hold the material and prevent the flames from directly burning the material, ensuring that the material can be melted just right but not burned out."
"Why bother? Just use other essence fires."
Director Hu said: "The raw liquid melted by the Sun's True Fire does not contain any impurities and has its own power of light. Other essence fires do not have this effect.
The king prefers weapons with the power of light. In the past, we used to think that the best weapons in the United States had the power of the sun. ”
Speaking of which, she has collected Nanming Lihuo, Liuding Sacred Fire, Honglian Yehuo, and three of the ten major Sacred Fires.
She doesn't want to miss it when she meets the real sun and fire.
However, you must find a proper container so that it cannot burn its living space.
Could she also try to find the skeleton of the Emperor's mother?
Manager Hu led her back, "The quenching basement directly connected to the main forging hall is the quenching basement. The newly formed weapons must be quenched here."
The underground chamber was relatively dark, but there was a cold moisture in the air that contrasted sharply with the scorching heat of the main forge hall.
There are three quenching pools here, and the water in the pools is extremely cold.
"These three quenching cold pools are made of Kunwu cold jade. The master carved a magic circle on the bottom of the pool to enhance the toughness and spirituality of the weapons.
There is a water channel at the bottom of the pool leading to the cold pool. When weapons are being cast, the water in the pool can be continuously replaced to ensure that the water here is always in an extremely cold state. ”
Manager Hu pointed to a school gate, "There is a road here that leads to the weapons treasure house, but the king has sealed this road and ordered that no one is allowed to enter. I have not entered for decades."

Tang Yue nodded, "This is enough. Thank you, Manager Hu, for the introduction."
Director Hu hurriedly handed over his hands, "This is what I should do. Do you want to rest next, or start making swords immediately?"
"Let me take a rest first."
Manager Hu took her to the lounge here, placed her in the largest room, and left to get busy.
At this time, Wei Zhi brought five other maids into the Scarlet Flame Palace. The priest actually let them all come, and the arrangements were very thoughtful.
As soon as Wei Zhi saw her, she asked, "Yue Xuannu, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. What's wrong? What happened?"
Wei Zhi whispered: "Something big has indeed happened. King Tanxiang led his troops to attack our country and wants the king to hand you over."
Tang Yue was confused, "Why is it none of my business?"
"King Tanxiang said that a very qualified saint had a problem last time and doubted our king's ability, so he wanted to pick you up and personally supervise and teach you."
