Purgatory Fire, Furnace Hellhound

Upon hearing what Elder Yang said...

A hint of doubt flashed through Chen Ning's mind.

Before he could think it through, Elder Yang thrust out a palm at Chen Ning, the force of which sent Chen Ning crashing through a door.

"Leader! Go! Go as far away as you can!"

Chen Ning was somewhat bewildered.

But since Elder Yang had said so, he retreated to the outside of those palaces.

Inside the main hall.

Dongfang He glanced at the Old Man Yang with surprise.

"Interesting... As far as I remember, this seems to be your first time making a move..."

Dongfang He laughed and said, "What? You sent that kid away because you're worried he'll see you kneeling down and begging for mercy later?"

The Old Man Yang ignored him and mumbled, "Patriarch Dongfang... I'm sorry..."

"What? You're going to attack me? Fine, I'll see if you, this weak and easily bullied person, will bite when pushed to the limit."

An interest flickered across Dongfang He's face.

He immediately unleashed a palm strike, the Saint Power rampaging forth.

However.

Suddenly, an even more terrifying surge of power erupted from the Old Man Yang's body.

That was a destructive force.

The Old Man Yang was surrounded by black flames.

When Dongfang He unleashed his ferocious palm strike onto the flames, it was quickly incinerated.

At this moment.

Dongfang He finally realized that something was wrong.

Not only was the force of his own palm strike burned away, but everything around Old Man Yang was also destroyed.

The pillars inside the main hall also began to melt.

Everything inside the palace was burned.

The terrifying black flames seemed to come from the Nine Nether Purgatory, capable of destroying everything.

The black, ferocious flames continued to spread outwards.

In the blink of an eye.

The entire hall was reduced to ruins.

Only Old Man Yang and Dongfang He remained standing there.

The terrifying flames even burned and scorched the ground beneath his feet, causing it to collapse. In the blink of an eye, the Old Man Yang fell into a giant pit.

The Old Man Yang stepped forward and soared into the sky, hovering in the void.

The black flames emanating from his body scorched through the space around him, making it impossible for him to stay in one place for an extended period.

This was a huge commotion.

This threw the Dongfang Aristocratic Clan into chaos.

Many members of the Lineage perished in these black flames.

The powerful members of the Lineage rushed over here.

The Dongfang Aristocratic Clan has a profound cultural heritage.

There are eight experts at the Great Saint Realm alone.

At this moment, even the Great Saint hesitated before such ferocious flames.

A terrible thought involuntarily arose in their minds.

Anyone who touches that black flame will surely die.

But now that the Dongfang Aristocratic Clan has encountered such a powerful enemy, they cannot sit idly by.

Then.

Eight streams of Saint Power, connecting heaven and earth, erupted simultaneously, attacking Old Man Yang from all directions. These eight streams of Saint Power, like a vast ocean, filled the entire space.

"Die!"

Eight loud shouts rang out, deafeningly loud.

They held nothing back, going all out, unleashing their various Divine Ability, and the violent power fluctuations caused the entire world to tremble.

The Old Man Yang's eyes, however, were filled with madness.

Black flames filled his entire eye.

Seeing the eight Great Saint Sages attacking at once, he not only didn't retreat a single step, but instead charged towards the eight attacks. At this moment, the Old Man Yang back straightened up.

Black flames billowed out, transforming into the head of a ferocious hound. With its mouth wide open, it spewed out black flames, completely destroying the eight attacks.

The terrifying, ferocious dog's head was a thousand feet long.

The black flames continued unabated.

The physical bodies and souls of those eight Great Saints were also completely incinerated.

Upon witnessing this scene...

Dongfang He's face darkened completely.

He had seen that beast's head in ancient books; it was the Furnace Hellhound that guarded the Nine Nether Purgatory. As for the Old Man Yang's body burning with the fire of purgatory, that should be... the Purgatory Fire.

A raging inferno that consumes everything.

This moment.

Dongfang He suddenly felt a little scared. He shouted at Old Man Yang, "Elder Yang, the matter of the Star Soul Cauldron can be discussed again. Why go through with this?"

Pity.

The Old Man Yang did not answer.

His eyes were filled with black flames. At this moment, the Old Man Yang didn't even resemble a human being, but rather a destructive will.

A determination to destroy everything.

Chen Ning, who was outside the palace complex at the moment, naturally saw the gigantic, ferocious dog head that was thousands of feet tall.

My heart was deeply shaken.

So, he silently used his Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils to try and find out what it was...

This is a mythical reward.

This was the first time he had used the Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils technique.

Not only did Chen Ning learn the full appearance of that ferocious dog head, but he also gained an unexpected reward.

At the same time.

The recruitment drive for the Dongfang Aristocratic Clan, not far away, has also concluded.

Here.

We were already very close to the square where the fighting was taking place.

The struggle has come to an end.

Both Ximen Chuan and Huang Yuehua emerged victorious, securing one of the final ten spots.

However, Ximen Chuan was just there to have some fun.

He certainly wouldn't actually join the Dongfang Aristocratic Clan.

At this moment, countless people were craning their necks and gazing at the palace complex of the Dongfang Aristocratic Clan.

The sudden appearance of the terrifying dog's head sent shockwaves through the crowd.

"What kind of technique is that? At such a distance, I could barely stand."

"What a terrifying dog head! Isn't that the direction of the Dongfang Aristocratic Clan's main hall? Could it be that the Eastern Family Head is fighting someone?"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

Now.

Ximen Chuan, however, had no interest in that. He went to Nalan Yao and Hua Luo's side and laughed, "You've all seen it, haven't you? My Ximen Aristocratic Clan is the absolute king in this Star King Domain. No one dares to compete with us. In other words, this young master doesn't lack Star Soul Essence at all."

That's true.

As the eldest grandson of the Ximen Aristocratic Clan, he was naturally the biggest beneficiary when the Star Soul Cauldron was under the control of the Ximen Aristocratic Clan.

This is also why he is so powerful among those of the same realm.

However, the only drawback is that after being enhanced by the Star Soul Liquid, one will become immune to that miraculous effect.

In other words...

You can only use the previous time to improve your realm.

Repeatedly refining Star Soul Essence can at most solidify one's realm, but it cannot lead to further breakthroughs.

But even so.

Ximen Chuan today.

He was only one step away from reaching the Great Saint Realm.

It is estimated that a breakthrough will be achieved within the next year or two.

"With such stunning beauty, wouldn't it be a waste for you to follow Chen Ning? Why not follow me instead?"

At this moment, Ximen Chuan could no longer suppress his desire and finally spoke.

Nalan Yao's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she quickly put on a pitiful look, saying, "But if my husband finds out, he'll beat us to death, no, no... Please, Young Master Ximen, have some self-respect."

"What is there to fear? Your husband is merely at the Saint Realm Early Stage, not even as strong as this Miss Yuehua. How could he possibly be a match for me?"

Ximen Chuan spoke casually.

A hint of sadness flashed in Huang Yuehua's eyes as she said, "Young Master Ximen, didn't you just say you fell in love with me at first sight?"

"Miss Yuehua, my feelings for you are genuine, but isn't it normal for someone of my status to have a few more women?"

"So this is the kind of person you are... I misjudged you."

A look of disgust flashed across Huang Yuehua's face, and she turned to leave.

Ximen Chuan sneered, "You should know who helped you obtain this Star Soul Essence, who helped you join the Dongfang Aristocratic Clan. I can help you, and I can destroy you too..."
