However, Ye Zhixin shook her head and said, "Compared to the Mortal Realm, it may indeed be rising!"
"But don’t forget, there are still places like the Forbidden Zone!"
"The Forbidden Zone is filled with powerful experts, and even Martial Gods are not few. Compared to that, the Chu family’s foundation still has a huge gap!"
If you disregard the Beast God, this unparalleled powerhouse,
the distance between the Chu family and the Forbidden Zone is like ten thousand eight thousand miles!
"But at least this is still a once-in-eternity achievement!"
"However, it’s a pity! Young Master’s cultivation method, the ‘Nine Heavens Burning Fire Technique,’ only has the upper volume. At best, it can only be cultivated up to the Martial Emperor realm. If he could find the middle and lower volumes, Young Master’s future achievements would be unimaginable even to us!"
Medicine Elder sighed as he looked at Chu Yan sitting cross-legged there.
Undoubtedly,
absorbing anomalous fire was an extremely suitable cultivation method for Chu Yan."Medicine Elder, where did you obtain this cultivation method?"
Ye Zhixin asked.
"The Undying Fire Sea!"
"What? That deathly forbidden land?"
"Exactly. Back then, I went there to search for anomalous fire, and on a stone tablet in the Undying Fire Sea, I discovered this cultivation method!"
"If it’s that place, then it’s troublesome!"
Ye Zhixin sighed.
Though the Undying Fire Sea is not a Forbidden Zone, it is extremely terrifying.
Anyone who enters won’t have their physical body die,
but they will be invaded by the fire spirits within, turning them into Undying Fire Humans!
It’s said that even the Martial Emperors from Hell’s Gate once perished there!
"However, I think Young Master’s strength should allow him to venture there. After all, he controls Divine Fire!"
"His combat power is beyond what we can imagine!"
Ye Zhixin frowned.
That place was far too dangerous.
If anything happened to Chu Yan while he went...
During a fierce battle with Chu Zhan,
Chu Yan fell into enlightenment.
In fact,
in the few years before returning to the Chu family, he had experienced hundreds of battles.
Though protected by the Purple Star Heavenly Flame granted by the Beast God,
he never used the Heavenly Flame unless in a life-or-death crisis,
fearing it would attract Martial Emperors from Hell’s Gate.
Suddenly, his eyes snapped open,
flames shooting from his gaze.
Then, a green flame rose from his brow—
Divine Fire—the Cangtian Virtual Flame!
Chu Zhan and others standing nearby as his protectors changed expressions instantly.
The moment Divine Fire appeared,
they were filled with a chilling sense of dread!
"What the hell is that flame?"
Chu Zhan was shocked.
He clearly felt that beneath that flame, he would have no power to resist!
"In the name of the Flame Emperor, I use Divine Fire as my guide, calling the Mortal Realm’s Heavenly Fire to return!"
Chu Yan shouted loudly,
his voice rolling like thunder,
echoing across heaven and earth!
When his voice spread,
six Heavenly Fires of various colors burst forth across the Mortal Realm, shooting blazing flames to the sky.
Three of them flew from three directions of the Mortal Realm.
However, this spectacular phenomenon alarmed the patrolling Martial Emperors from Hell’s Gate.
The moment they discovered the anomalous fire,
some Martial Emperors near the fires suddenly struck out,
attempting to suppress the fires.
Yet at this moment, he sensed that the Heavenly Star Flame in his hand was slipping from his control, flying upward!
"How could this happen?"
"I already refined the Heavenly Star Flame long ago!"
Just as he was shocked,
the Heavenly Star Flame suddenly left his palm and flew beyond Hell’s Gate.
At the same time,
two other Heavenly Fires refined by two other Martial Emperors also escaped their control and flew toward the horizon!
This terrified them.
How could something already refined run away?
"Chase it! I want to see who’s secretly manipulating things!"
First Gate Lord Wu Fu was furious,
leading several Martial Emperors to pursue the direction the fires flew.
"The only one in the Mortal Realm capable of such a move should be the Chu family’s powerful Beast God, right?"
Some strong experts from the Netherworld Hell stationed at Hell’s Gate said solemnly.
Martial Emperors shouldn’t have this ability!
"Damn it, that Chu family Beast God is getting more and more outrageous! When will our Sacred Realm’s experts finally arrive?"
"Why rush? You know very well that the stronger one wants to descend into the Mortal Realm, the harder it is. Didn’t Elder Bei Weng say this time the strong one descending is to deal with the Forbidden Zone?"
"And the Forbidden Zone has a half-step World-Creation Realm powerhouse guarding it!"
"Hiss? You mean a half-step World-Creation Realm expert will descend from the Sacred Realm?"
"Nine times out of ten, that’s correct!"
"We just need to wait quietly. Of course, if you want to look for death, you can go test the Beast God’s limits!"
No one dared to act rashly.
If their strength was close to theirs,
they wouldn’t mind fighting it out,
but since the opponent was in the Longevity Realm,
an existence even more terrifying than Elder Bei Weng,
going there would be seeking death!
"Let these Martial Emperors test the Beast God’s limits first!"
"If the Martial Emperors strike and the Beast God still doesn’t move, it means he won’t interfere in the Emperor-tier battles. Then our Hell’s Gate Martial Emperors can act to surround and kill the Chu family!"
Compared to Emperor-tier experts,
their Hell’s Gate Martial Emperors together could drown the opponent with just their spit!
This is the accumulation of endless years, not empty talk!
"Good!"
Everyone nodded.
Sending Martial Emperors to test the waters was a good choice;
if they died, it didn’t matter!
Wu Fu and the others followed the Heavenly Fires all the way.
They stopped only when they were about to reach the Seven Domains controlled by the Chu family.
Suddenly,
Wu Fu and two others spat out blood.
In shock, Wu Fu said, "They severed the connection between us and the Heavenly Fires?"
"Chu family! It must be the Chu family! It has to be their Beast God who used some trick to take away our Heavenly Fires!"
"How shameless! A dignified Longevity Realm expert actually snatched treasures from a group of Martial Emperors like us!"
The Sacred Sun Martial Emperor who came with Wu Fu cursed loudly.
His Heavenly Fire was taken too!
That’s like an adult stealing snacks from a bunch of kids!
Too damn unchivalrous!
Wu Fu’s face turned extremely pale.
He never expected to have his opportunity snatched away!
"The one who stole your Heavenly Fires is me!"
While everyone cursed,
a figure burning with roaring flames strode over from afar.
Each step he took spanned thousands of miles.
In an instant, he arrived tens of thousands of meters in front of Wu Fu and the others.
Behind him,
nine Heavenly Fires hovered, forming a ring.
Even tens of thousands of meters away,
the scorching heat scorched the skin of many Martial Emperors red and raw, causing unbearable pain.
"Who... who are you?"
Wu Fu frowned.
The aura on the other party was terrifying,
and he couldn’t comprehend it!
"I am the Flame Emperor!"
Chu Yan replied.
"You’re a Chu family Martial Emperor?"
Wu Fu asked.
If he was a Chu family Martial Emperor, they wouldn’t dare to act rashly.
If that Beast God slapped them with a claw, it would be disastrous!
But according to the intelligence gathered by Hell’s Gate, there seemed to be no such person among the Chu family Martial Emperors!
