Chapter 1441: Chapter 1440: The Secret of the Ten Thousand Fires Stream and the Threat
Finally, when the flames of death came together, it was like a black sun rising into the void.
It was then that the Three Elders of the Holy Flame slowly opened their eyes.
Like the others, a mass of black flame emerged from within them, burning their entire bloodline to ashes.
Having used this move, even if Xu Zimei did not kill them, they would not live much longer.
Because at this moment, they were nothing but walking corpses, devoid of life.
They relied on their last bit of consciousness to hold themselves up.
“To die by this move, with so many of your compatriots to accompany you in death,
you should be proud,” Old Wang said coldly.
“Proud? You think you’re worthy?” Xu Zimei laughed.
“Attack,” Old Wang roared.
The three exhausted their last strength, the blazing flames transformed into a Death God-like lightning bolt.
It landed on Xu Zimei.
Only the constant sound of explosions rumbled.
Xu Zimei didn’t even have time to dodge; the flame seemed to have a tracking ability and directly entered Xu Zimei’s mind.
Seeing this scene, the Three Elders of the Holy Flame felt at ease.
Because Xu Zimei was doomed to die without a doubt.
They grinned, using their last moments of life, wanting to see Xu Zimei die before their eyes.
……
Meanwhile, Xu Zimei, his gaze deepened.
He felt the condition inside his body.
Once the flame entered his mind, it began to burn both his flesh and Divine Soul.
His Spiritual Energy seemed to be like fuel for this flame.
The more it burned, the more vigorous it became.
The aura of death pressed closer and closer; Xu Zimei could feel the oppressive force.
His consciousness was blurry, as if he could see the ferry of the Netherworld Realm.
Only the dead could see the ferry and be taken to the Netherworld Realm.
“So this is the feeling of death,” Xu Zimei grinned slightly.
In the next moment, his body suddenly exploded with an endless aura of life.
Among them was the Tree of Life, and the Heaven-reaching Wood obtained from Ju Mang.
The life force of both was unimaginably powerful.
At this moment, they stood against the flames of death.
From an outsider’s perspective, Xu Zimei’s current state was half living, half dead.
Life and death confronted each other, constantly clashing.
“No matter how strong your life force is, it can’t withstand this Death Seal,” Elder Cui whispered.
“The death energy within still gathers countless lives from our king’s mansion, enough for you to die several times over.”
“If you consider the entire population of the Chaos Fire Realm, that might be more interesting.”
Xu Zimei shook his head and said, “Otherwise, just the people from the king’s mansion aren’t even enough to fill my teeth.”
Xu Zimei was not being arrogant.
The life force from the Tree of Life was indeed too powerful, and these few people couldn’t do anything to him.
The Three Elders of the Holy Flame stared at Xu Zimei.
Seeing the life force on his body remain so strong, as vast as the ocean.
In contrast, the death aura was being pressed down bit by bit.
“It’s impossible, how could this be,” the three elders shook their heads, appearing somewhat in collapse.
They could not believe their own failure.
Nor did they dare to face their own defeat.
Because they had sacrificed the entire king’s mansion’s lives, except for the children, to unleash this move.
Yet to their opponent, it was hardly a scratch.
This contrast led the three to a point of breakdown.
“Take your repentance and go to the Netherworld Realm to see your deceased comrades,” Xu Zimei said.
A “bang” sound came from within him.
The life force thoroughly suppressed the death energy.
This supposedly fatal move was easily nullified by him.
Xu Zimei waved his hand, and the vast Spiritual Energy came from the void, suppressing the three remaining figures where they stood.
In fact, even if Xu Zimei did not suppress them, these three could not escape.
He just did it to be more secure.
“Speak,” Xu Zimei said.
“Speak of what?” Old Wang asked faintly.
He was dejected, his gaze even somewhat dead.
So many of his compatriots had died, and it was all his fault.
“What exactly did you research in the Inner World,” Xu Zimei asked.
“Do you think we will tell you?” Elder Cui snorted coldly.
“Defeated, we admit defeat.
But it’s impossible for you to know anything.”
“If I’m not mistaken, you still have some children alive in your king’s mansion,” Xu Zimei said.
“What do you want to do?” Old Wang’s expression changed.
This was supposed to be the last hope he left for the king’s mansion.
“I am not one to ruthlessly kill lives.
Those children have no power to resist, and I don’t want to kill them either.”
Xu Zimei said, “If you cooperate with me, they naturally can live.
But if you want to test the sharpness of my blade, I don’t mind using their brains for a test.”
“Even the children, you won’t spare; are you even human?” The Three Elders of the Holy Flame scolded angrily.
“You’re wrong there, I very much want to spare them.
But doesn’t the ultimate decision lie in your hands?” Xu Zimei asked.
“If you answer my questions, I can promise not to harm anyone,” Xu Zimei said.
The three remained silent for a long time.
Seemingly pondering something, their hearts torn.
Ultimately, Old Wang made the decision, “What do you want to know?”
“The first thing, about the Tyrant Blade,” Xu Zimei asked.
“Why are you willing to protect him at the cost of offending a Great Saint?”
“We need experimental subjects from the Myriad Water Streams.
All along, because he managed Stone Rock City near the Lihuo Realm.
We captured those from the Myriad Water Streams through him,” Old Wang said.
“He knows our secret and is on the same front with us.
We need him for many things, so we protect him.”
“Because of your king’s mansion identity, you’re not suitable to show yourselves, right,” Xu Zimei said.
“That’s right, but now it seems the Chaos Palace has found out,” Old Wang said with a wry smile.
“Otherwise, in this battle, the Chaos Palace would not have been absent.”
“What exactly are the Myriad Water Streams?” Xu Zimei asked.
“How should I put it,” Old Wang considered for a while.
Then said, “Some say it’s misfortune, others say it’s the origin.
But according to our years of research.
We can basically conclude.
The Myriad Water Streams, as its name suggests, is the origin of the Water Tribe.”
“Water Tribe?” Xu Zimei was puzzled.
“More precisely, it’s the Water Beasts,” Old Wang replied.
“We tried to harness its power.
Clearly water and fire are incompatible, yet those Myriad Water Streams remarkably have a strong amplification effect for us of the Fire Tribe.”
“So you have been using the Myriad Water Streams to strengthen yourselves, aiming to break through realms.
Am I right?” Xu Zimei asked.
“Yes, but the Chaos Palace prohibited us from merging with the Myriad Water Streams,” Old Wang replied.
