Chapitre 208: Chapter 208: The Frenzied Purifying Lotus Demon Flame!
Outside the demon fire space, Jiang Yun withdrew his gaze from the distance, murmuring softly. The next moment, he smiled and, taking Qing Lin along, flashed into the milky white light circle, disappearing without a trace.
As the two entered, the milky white space suddenly erupted with a powerful force. The spatial passage opened by Jiang Yun began to close rapidly, completely sealing within the blink of an eye.
"Bastard—"
A furious roar echoed across the entire Central Plains. With the roar, the heavens and earth trembled and wailed. The next moment, boundless flames, as if swept out from the void, spread out with endless devouring power. The surrounding mountain ranges began to burn and be devoured rapidly by the immense flames.
Dark red magma erupted from the ground, surging streams of intensely hot air from within the rolling bubbles.
Endless black flames congealed into Void Devouring Flame, his face grim as he gazed at the completely sealed demon fire space. Endless flames surged around him, casting a terrifying heat over the region.
He resembled a blazing sun, continuously emitting glaring light. A terrible heat steamed up from the magma, causing the space within a few thousand miles to become distorted.
"Do you think taking advantage of this loophole will work?" Void Devouring Flame coldly stared at the demon fire space. With a shout, he pointed forward, "This seat opens!"
Void Devouring Flame stretched out his finger, pointing into the void.
As his finger descended, boundless seas of fire roared out, transforming into a gigantic finger that descended toward the demon fire space.
"Boom—"
Accompanying Void Devouring Flame's action, a thunderous roar erupted as a massive fire array, spanning nearly tens of thousands of feet, slowly emerged from the void outside the demon fire space...
The sky-covering fire array, resembling a massive fire plate, enveloped this space. As the massive finger approached, the immense array began to rotate like a millstone, causing the energy within this space to become exceedingly violent.
"Bang!"
The collision lasted barely an instant, and the earth-shaking explosion dispersed outward. The surrounding area, spanning thousands of miles, transformed directly into a sea of magma. The ground was forcefully blasted into a massive crater, tens of thousands of feet deep.
"Bastard, even old dead guys from centuries ago want to stop me?"
Seeing the first attack being thwarted, Void Devouring Flame's face darkened further as he prepared to strike again.
"Void Devouring, wait a moment!" Soul Heavenly Emperor who followed closely behind appeared, his brows furrowed as he looked at the distant void, stopping Void Devouring Flame from attacking again.
"Gu Yuan, since when did you like sneaking around like a 'villain'?" Void Devouring Flame said with displeasure, following Soul Heavenly Emperor's gaze. Soul Heavenly Emperor had a faint smile, his tone teasing.
In the distance, a figure with hands behind his back slowly emerged from the void.
"Gu Yuan!?"
Void Devouring Flame's face sank as black flames surged fiercely around him. He angrily shouted, "What are you doing here?"
"Whatever your purpose is, that's mine too. Why ask when you know the answer?" Gu Yuan said calmly, with a faint smile. Then he looked Void Devouring Flame up and down, his tone mocking, "If I didn't come, I wouldn't see you looking so 'pathetic'!"
Stepping on Void Devouring Flame's joke, Void Devouring Flame grew more furious, his face pale as he stared at Gu Yuan with burning anger.
"Hehe, Gu Yuan, there's no need to provoke Void Devouring. Even if you came, you might not fare well." Soul Heavenly Emperor lightly laughed, then looked at Gu Yuan, asking, "You've seen the current situation. What are your plans, Gu Yuan?"
Soul Heavenly Emperor scanned the surroundings, occasionally sweeping his gaze through the void. Gu Yuan's face became solemn, there were already hundreds of powerful auras around them, indicating how many strong beings had gathered.
Just because the demon fire space was closed and due to the three's deterrence, everyone did not act rashly. If the three started fighting, the scene would certainly descend into chaos, making it uncontrollable.
"Someone has already entered the demon fire space first, do you still want to fight us here?" Soul Heavenly Emperor asked, watching Gu Yuan intently, waiting for his decision.
Void Devouring Flame sneered beside him, even if he didn't obtain the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame now, he would get it when the thief eventually came out.
"Soul Heavenly Emperor, you don't need to provoke me. Anyone can take the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, but it cannot fall into the hands of your Soul Clan. Otherwise, countless innocent lives will be lost to your clan's ambitions." Gu Yuan righteously stated, staring pain at Soul Heavenly Emperor.
Agreeing with Void Devouring Flame, Gu Yuan was ready for the decisive battle with the Soul Clan. If he won, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame would naturally be within reach. If he lost, who held the flame became irrelevant.
His only aim now was to prevent it from enhancing the Soul Clan's power.
Seeing Gu Yuan's sincere attitude, the smile on Soul Heavenly Emperor's face gradually faded. He looked seriously into Gu Yuan's eyes. After a moment, Soul Heavenly Emperor laughed loudly,
"Ha!"
"Gu Yuan, I underestimated you. Has Xiao Yan left seclusion?"
Shaking his head with a rueful smile, Soul Heavenly Emperor immediately dropped interest in the demon fire topic. Glancing at Gu Yuan with certainty, he assumed his guess.
Before Gu Yuan could respond, Soul Heavenly Emperor continued, "Since he has, let it be a month from now."
Gu Yuan's face darkened, eyeing both Soul Heavenly Emperor and Void Devouring Flame intently.
"Tell Xiao Yan, if he wants to save his father, come to the Burial Heaven Range with the ancient jade in a month."
After Soul Heavenly Emperor finished speaking, he took Void Devouring Flame and slowly walked into the spatial rift behind him, vanishing from Gu Yuan's sight in an instant.
Watching the sky-stitched rift, the mountain range fell into silence.
With hands clasped, Gu Yuan stood still, whispering to himself, "Burial Heaven Range...a month, huh?" His eyes filled with icy determination.
"Whoosh—" A breeze blew, and Gu Yuan's figure in the sky disappeared without notice.
"What terrifying strength."
"Great Elder, it seems we cannot enter!" The members of the Pill Tower couldn't help but ask the leading elder in the crowd.
After exiting, they searched but found no trace of a spatial rift, leaving them helpless. Forcibly breaking through wasn't an option, they lacked the terrifying strength of Void Devouring Flame.
"You should all return. This matter is beyond your involvement." As the Great Elder frowned, a teenager riding a green ox swiftly approached from a distance.
"It's the Patriarch!" The Great Elder looked up and recognized him, filled with joy.
"Yes!" The Pill Tower Patriarch glanced at the crowd before looking at the demon fire space, speaking gravely, "The time hasn't come for the demon fire space to open. This might be the work of someone who inherited the Purifying Lotus Flame's legacy. Whether it's a blessing or a curse is yet to be seen."
The Great Elder and others nodded in surprise, understanding the hidden circumstances. A new peak strong might soon emerge.
"By the way, Patriarch, there's something to report." Remembering the alliance, the Great Elder spoke respectfully.
With the world in turmoil outside, Jiang Yun and Qing Lin, having entered the light circle, found themselves in a different space after a flash of light.
The first sensation was like being in a furnace. Scanning quickly around, they discovered they were in a space filled with milky white flames.
The entire space was permeated with milky white flames emitting a scorching heat that made them feel hot.
"Nightmare Mist...but not fully mastered!" Jiang Yun laughed softly, feeling the flames trying to invade their bodies but stopped by his barrier. He had no intention of entangling with the upcoming puppet.
He moved his fingertip slightly, shooting out a drop of blood. The blood quickly formed an intricate blood talisman, "Break Nightmare Talisman, break for me!!!"
The talisman shot into the void ahead, causing the space to shake intensely. Deep inside, an entity on a throne furrowed its brows.
The entity, frowning, opened its eyes to the anomaly within the sea of flames, "What's happening? It's not time yet. The Nightmare Mist is broken? Did someone inherit that old fool's legacy?!"
Cold light flashed in its eyes as it sneered. Milky white flames spread from within, casting a destructive heat over the space.
Meanwhile, the space around Jiang Yun and Qing Lin trembled violently before exploding before their eyes.
A sea of magma appeared, with milky white flames occasionally bursting forth to the horizon. It seemed the entire space was an ocean of magma.
"Booming—"
Suddenly, a massive magma column, about a hundred feet thick, rose from the magma sea.
A handsome man, clad in white, sat quietly atop the magma pillar.
"The Purifying Lotus Demon Flame has formed a fire spirit body?!" Qing Lin exclaimed, seeing the Purifying Lotus Flame resembling Void Devouring Flame with a fire spirit body, making it one of the two entities known to have it, proving its might from being ranked third on the Flame List.
The Purifying Lotus Flame's emotionless gaze locked onto Jiang Yun, its cold voice echoing, "How did you break my Nightmare Illusion?"
"Haven't you already guessed?" Jiang Yun responded nonchalantly.
Hearing this, the Purifying Lotus Flame's pupils contracted, shouting, "So it's true...you got that old bastard's inheritance?!"
"So what if you did, I've been trapped here for millennia. Even if he came in person, he couldn't trap me again. Do you think you, a trifling Three-star Dou Saint, can refine me?"
With that, the Purifying Lotus Flame, nearly insane, roared at Jiang Yun with bloodshot eyes.
"Let's see if it works!" Jiang Yun smiled gently, pointing into the void and speaking words that filled the Purifying Lotus Flame with despair.
"Ancient Refining Array, rise!"
With Jiang Yun's action, the space erupted with a thunderous roar. Before the Purifying Lotus Flame's horrified eyes, a massive fire array, tens of thousands of feet in size, emerged from the void.
"Roaring!"
As the large array appeared in the sky, the endless magma sea rolled and revealed another massive fire array below.
Seeing the two arrays form, the flame's face darkened immediately.
"Bastard."
"Impossible."
"This can't be, I've mastered the Ancient Refining Array over millennia, how can I lose to a mere brat?"
Seeing this, the Purifying Lotus Flame roared skyward, body surging towards the sky with milky white fire lines shooting out, merging into the Ancient Refining Array.
Moments later, its face twisted in shock as control over the array slipped away.
"Do you think a mere array can bridge the gap in power? Today, I'll tear you apart!" Cooling down, the Purifying Lotus Flame eyed Jiang Yun venomously, shouting in anger.
"Demon Flame Statue!"
Milky white flames rapidly coalesced around the Purifying Lotus Flame, forming a colossal giant about ten thousand feet tall.
"Roar—"
