Flame Master

These crisscrossing rivers of lava are not ordinary lava; they form a vast and indescribable array.

The total area of this formation is probably as large as 100,000 zhang.

If a powerful expert at the Death Xuan Realm were to fall into it, they would undoubtedly die. Even experts at the Reincarnation Realm like Ying Xuanzi and Tian Yuanzi would be in a very sorry state if they were to fall into it.

Xiao Ming flashed, and then a thought struck him. His gaze followed the complex and intertwined rivers of lava, and after a brief exploration, he finally discovered that these massive rivers of lava that traversed this Dark Space ultimately converged and merged at one place.

At that point of convergence was a vast lava lake, thousands of feet deep, its crimson magma constantly bubbling. The temperature was enough to instantly turn a powerful Life Xuan Realm into ashes.

In the center of the lake, he saw something—a Stone Coffin.

The Stone Coffin was entirely crimson, floating silently on the lava. It looked as if it had been cast from a single crimson crystal. Stone Coffin had no lid, so one could see that a person seemed to be lying inside.

By the light emanating from the lava, one could vaguely make out what appeared to be a tall, handsome man. Even with his eyes closed, a faint air of authority lingered between his brows. His long, fiery red hair burned like flames.

"Flame Master..."

Xiao Ming looked at the man, his eyes narrowing slightly. This Flame Master seemed to have feelings for his cheap disciple, or perhaps he did have feelings for the Ice Lord.

Splash!

In the endless darkness, there seemed to be a sudden tremor, and a deep, clanging sound of iron chains rang out. Then, the entire space seemed to tremble violently.

Roar!

A piercing shriek, as sharp as if it could tear the soul apart, suddenly rang out from the depths of darkness. Then, the sound of chains rattling filled the air as the darkness writhed wildly. Next, a gigantic Dark Giant Palm, roughly ten thousand feet in size, suddenly tore through the darkness and grabbed at the Stone Coffin in the center of the magma array.

Boom!

However, just as the Dark Giant Palm was about to touch the lava lake, the massive lava array, which was about tens of thousands of feet in size, suddenly erupted. Rivers of lava roared and surged, and giant waves of lava, thousands of feet in size, rolled. The roaring sound was like the roar of a lava dragon, shaking the space.

Splash!

A towering crimson light surged, and streams of magma suddenly flowed down rapidly. As the magma flowed, it became clear that beneath the magma array were countless massive black chains, each a thousand feet long, covered with obscure and complex runes.

The lava flowed rapidly down the chains, instantly staining them red. As the lava flowed, it became clear that the massive chains were completely bound to that enormous, Dark Giant Palm.

Sizzle!

The chains turned crimson, and a towering white mist erupted from the Dark Giant Palm. Instantly, a shrill shriek echoed once more from the endless depths of darkness.

The Dark Giant Palm struggled, but still could not break free. In the end, it could only retreat again and shrink into the Dark Giant Palm darkness. Faintly, a roar of extreme unwillingness echoed throughout the entire space.

After the Dark Giant Palm was repelled, the magma array calmed down once more, as if the earth-shattering spectacle had never occurred.

On the lava lake, the Stone Coffin still floated quietly, as if it had not changed at all due to the previous anomaly. The red-haired man inside had his eyes closed, but this time, a red light suddenly flashed across his handsome face, and his ten fingers placed in front of him seemed to tremble slightly.

Even so, he still did not wake up. There was only a faint, seemingly emanating thought. Suddenly, a flash of red light locked onto Xiao Ming's direction, and the sleeping red-haired man's eyelids twitched, as if he was about to wake up.

Xiao Ming watched quietly as a plume of lava shot into the sky, and a tall figure appeared before Xiao Ming with strange hair and an expressionless face that exuded a sense of oppression.

The aura of the Triple Reincarnation Tribulation erupted, and a pair of deep eyes locked onto Xiao Ming.

"You seem to carry the Aura of the Great Desolate Monument and the Ice Lord, and you don't seem to be from the Tian Xuan Continent. Who are you?!"

Xiao Ming wasn't surprised to be recognized. A Reincarnation Realm Third Level expert was already at a very high level, equivalent to Gu Yuan's level. He hadn't even reached that level and had switched to the Tian Xuan Continent's cultivation system. It was perfectly normal for him to be discovered as an outsider.

My name is Xiao Ming.

As he spoke, Xiao Ming released a wisp of Aura, Aura vanished in an instant, but it made the Flame Master's expression no longer calm.

Ancestor Realm?!

"Don't worry, I mean you no harm," Xiao Ming said, waving his hand.

Flame Master frowned; he didn't look well.

"You saw what happened just now. This space is only Demonic Race. The one just now was the Great Heavenly Demonic King of the Demonic Race. There's nothing else."

"He's the one I'm looking for."

After hearing Xiao Ming's words, Flame Master frowned again and tentatively said, "This guy is the mount of the Other Devil Emperor, one of the top three in the Demonic Race. We sacrificed many powerful warriors to capture it."

He's been suppressed in this Demon Suppressing Prison for so many years, yet he's never been refined or destroyed by the formation. On the contrary, his power has only grown stronger, perhaps even stronger than before he was sealed. And you should know about the powerful vitality and corrupting nature of the Otherworldly Demons, so what use are you to them?"

This Great Heavenly Demonic King is a powerhouse extremely close to the Ancestor Realm. In the Dou Qi Continent, he would be at least Half-Emperor. Even if such a powerful being is sealed away, it would still be troublesome. Not to mention that this is also a different kind of Otherworldly Demons, which is even more troublesome and difficult to deal with in terms of energy level. The Flame Master's caution is necessary.

"Since you know my strength, why worry?" Xiao Ming didn't explain further, after all, what he had done wasn't exactly honorable.

The Flame Master's eyes flickered, but he didn't make any move; instead, he became wary.

Xiao Ming was speechless at his reaction. With his strength, it wouldn't be difficult for him to forcibly take away the Great Heavenly Demonic King, but Flame Master was desperately trying to stop him, and if he made a mistake, the situation would become quite serious.

"Desolate, come out and talk to your old friend."

Sorry, I fell asleep again. I woke up in the middle of the night and quickly finished this chapter. Sigh, maybe it's because I'm getting old (>_<)
