"Heart Fire tests a cultivator's divine soul."
Shangguan Xian smiled. "If you aren't confident about this trial, don't attempt it. There's no turning back."
Xu Zimo looked at Zhang Hengzhi.
Of the three, Zhang Hengzhi was the weakest.
"Don't worry. Though I'm not particularly strong,
I'd say my Dao heart is firm," Zhang Hengzhi said with a smile.
"I'm not afraid of this so-called Heart Fire."
The so-called Heart Fire was actually a bridge.
A fiery bridge leading to the mountaintop, suspended between cliffs.
Flames burned upon the bridge, and those flames were violet.
It seemed as though savage faces were forming within the flames.
By the time the three arrived, people were already crossing the bridge.
Some wore hideous expressions, unable to describe the searing agony.
Some were directly consumed by the flames, ultimately vanishing into nothingness.
Yet some still strode as swiftly as if flying, utterly unaffected.
"Oh, right. There's something you might be interested in," Shangguan Xian said to Xu Zimo with a smile.
"What?"
"The lord of Shi Yan City has come to the Chaos Fire Domain," Shangguan Xian said.
At that, Xu Zimo understood.
The man had come to avenge his son.
"What cultivation realm is that so-called city lord in?" Xu Zimo asked again.
"You want to know? Join our Shenwu Fire Domain," Shangguan Xian said with a smile.
"I'll settle that city lord for you."
Xu Zimo shook his head slightly and looked toward Zhang Hengzhi.
"He should be a Heavenly Venerable," Zhang Hengzhi replied.
"The city lords of the cities beneath the Chaos Fire Domain are all Great Emperors.
Shi Yan City is considered rather powerful among those cities."
"Then that's no fun," Xu Zimo said.
He had wanted to capture a Fire Tribe Great Sage for the Blue Man to taste.
