Xiao Chen had never imagined that one day, he would become one of the transmigrators.
However, now that he had become one, he naturally could not disgrace his fellow travelers.
Especially when he possessed a system cheat.
Looking at the Demonic Flame prison around him, Xiao Chen, who had inherited the memories of both Xiao Chen and the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint, was not the least bit panicked. Instead, he took a step forward.
Then, the aura within his body surged like rolling waves, growing ever higher and stronger.
"Mid-phase Five-Star Dou Saint. I never expected you to reach such a level without making a sound."
Sensing the fierce and majestic aura erupting from Xiao Chen, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was somewhat surprised.
It had not expected Xiao Chen to enter the Five-Star Dou Saint realm right under its nose.
At the very instant the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was taken aback, Xiao Chen seized the opportunity. He clenched his hand at the void, and a massive blood-red phantom condensed in his palm. In the blink of an eye, it formed into a huge Blood Axe. With a turn of his wrist, the Blood Axe instantly tore through space, carrying bursts of sonic booms as it slashed horizontally toward the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame with lightning speed.
Its sharpness was beyond belief. Wherever the Blood Axe passed, it seemed capable of splitting even heaven and earth apart. That overbearing momentum made one's soul tremble.
"Heaven-Breaking Three Axes, a mid-tier Heaven-class Dou Technique. It was once Xiao Chen's killing move, used to roam the continent and slaughter countless powerful experts."
Having obtained all of Xiao Chen's memories, "Xiao Chen" instinctively unleashed this Dou Technique after taking control of Xiao Chen's body.
One axe split apart the Milky White Flame shielding the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame. Then, the massive Blood Axe in his hand flashed as he struck three more times!
He showed no mercy. The strikes were unimaginably fast.
The three axe strikes practically merged into one. Ordinary people could only see a red shadow streak across the sky. Only Dou Saint experts could clearly see three crimson blood lines shoot out from space and arrive before it in an instant at an utterly terrifying speed. Though the three blood lines appeared thin and weak, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame sensed an intensely dense feeling of danger from them.
"Fire Demon Halberd!"
In that split second, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame sneered. Unhurriedly, it lightly clenched its hand toward the boundless Magma Sea below. The Magma Sea immediately began to churn violently, and a long halberd of eerie white flames shot out from within, charging toward Xiao Chen to kill him.
Sensing the lethal threat brought by the Fire Demon Halberd, Xiao Chen had no choice but to abandon his continued assault on the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame. The Blood Axe in his hand collided with the Fire Demon Halberd like lightning.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
Then, an indescribably terrifying energy storm swept outward at an astonishing speed the moment they collided. The Magma Sea thousands of zhang below was forcibly torn open by a magma fissure stretching ten thousand zhang long, reaching all the way to the deepest depths of the magma.
After a short while, the storm subsided.
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame abruptly formed hand seals. The Milky White Flame filling heaven and earth suddenly gathered toward it at high speed, then condensed under countless shocked gazes into a flame giant nearly ten thousand zhang tall.
"Demonic Lotus Fire Statue!"
The flame giant's feet plunged directly into the Magma Sea below. Its colossal size made souls tremble continuously. If such a giant threw a punch, even a Dou Saint expert would likely be blasted into nothingness.
"Xiao Chen, submit to me, and you may be spared death." Standing atop the Demonic Lotus Fire Statue's head, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame looked down arrogantly at Xiao Chen, who was as tiny as an ant below.
"You've got shit for brains."
Xiao Chen raised a brow and sneered.
The Demonic Lotus Fire Statue suddenly raised its fist, as immense as a mountain, and smashed it toward Xiao Chen. The instant that punch was thrown, a magma vortex several thousand zhang wide appeared upon the surface of the Magma Sea far below, spinning and howling madly.
This move was enough to kill any Five-Star Dou Saint expert.
"Heaven-Refining Ancient Array, appear!"
The indifferent words had barely fallen.
A thunderous rumble immediately resounded through space. Then, a fire array nearly several tens of thousands of zhang in size slowly emerged from the void above.
The fire array that blotted out the sky and covered the earth resembled two incomparably massive fiery discs, one above and one below, enclosing this entire space.
The Heaven-Refining Ancient Array was divided into the Heavenly Array and the Earthly Array. Once the two arrays merged, all matter caught between them would be refined into nothingness by the array's power.
"How is this possible? How can you control the Heaven-Refining Ancient Array?"
"No, you are definitely not Xiao Chen. Who exactly are you?"
Amid the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's thunderous, ear-splitting roar was terror and shock it could not conceal.
At this moment, it had clearly sensed that the Heaven-Refining Ancient Array, which it had spent ten thousand years mastering, had already slipped from its control.
How could this not frighten it?
It had to rely on the power of the Heaven-Refining Ancient Array if it wanted any chance of leaving this space and regaining its freedom.
Yet Xiao Chen's actions had now nearly reduced its plans to ashes.
How could it not be enraged?
Moreover, with the Heaven-Refining Ancient Array, it would not fear even a Seven-Star Dou Saint.
As for supreme beings above the Seven-Star Dou Saint realm, they could not possibly enter the Demonic Lotus Fire Space.
There was only one consequence for forcing their way in: triggering the restriction left behind by the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint and perishing together with the entire Demonic Lotus Fire Space.
Even Gu Yuan and Hun Tiandi, the two strongest men on the current Dou Qi Continent, did not dare set foot within a restriction left behind by a Half-Emperor.
"I told you, I'm your dad."
"Ancestor, BGM!"
As soon as the Heaven-Refining Ancient Array appeared, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's Demonic Lotus Fire Statue melted away at high speed like a snowman dropped into molten lava.
"Dad's dad is called Grandpa, Dad's mom is called Grandma..."
Xiao Chen: "O_o!!!!"
"What was that sound?!"
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was also startled by the sudden strange sound and let out an odd cry.
Then it looked toward Xiao Chen, whose face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot and whose body was trembling.
What a great opportunity!
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame rejoiced inwardly.
"Heaven-Refining Ancient Array, Refine Heaven to be Slave!"
Compared to Xiao Chen, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame had studied the Heaven-Refining Ancient Array for nearly ten thousand years. Though it had lost control over the array, it could still draw upon a portion of its power through its formidable strength.
At this moment, it floated in the sky as overwhelming Milky White Flame surged from its body, all of it pouring into the great array.
"Bang!" As its shout fell, heaven and earth shook violently. A ring of milky-white light rapidly spread from the edges of the great array toward its center, gathering into a milky-white pillar of light one hundred zhang wide. The pillar was filled with destructive power.
"Refine!" A cruel smile appeared on the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's face as it pointed sharply downward. Both the Heavenly Array and Earthly Array trembled violently, and two milky-white pillars of light instantly shot forth like fountains. Their only target was Xiao Chen.
