Suddenly, the Crow Daoist noticed a familiar aura, the aura of a demon king.
"This is the aura of the White Elephant King. Has he also come to the Fire Domain to refine weapons?"
Su Yu was unaware of the changes that had occurred on the eighth floor. He took out the Bronze Ring from his body and placed the crude Bronze Ring into the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar.
For some reason, the Ghost Face Mask on the jar trembled slightly, as if a tear was falling, and even Su Yu was drawn in by this aura.
However, he did not witness the Empress's childhood, which differs from the original story.
"Are you still waiting for your brother to return...?"
Su Yu sighed softly. The Empress's obsession spanned the entire era of "Shrouding the Heavens," but unfortunately, in the end...
This Bronze Ring wasn't useless. After merging with the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar, Su Yu could feel the Emperor Weapon reviving on its own, making it much easier to activate.
Finally, under his control Devouring Heaven Demon Jar actually possessed a hint of overwhelming power over the heavens. He was very familiar with this scene; the aura that Divine Silkworm Princess emitted when she activated the imperial artifact was just like this, an overwhelming divine might.
With the help of the Bronze Ring, he unleashed his full power at the Immortal Platform Second Heaven Ascension Realm, driving the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar with the force of Saint. This supreme divine might was enough to shatter the entire Fire Domain and destroy everything.
The ninth level of the Fire Domain was a vast expanse of white, with thousands upon thousands of Chaos waterfalls cascading down, creating an incredibly magnificent sight that completely covered the area. The original nine-colored flames were mixed in with the Chaos waterfalls, shimmering with vibrant colors, a truly breathtaking spectacle.
The Devouring Heaven Demon Jar floated above Su Yu's head, appearing incredibly extraordinary. The jar was jet black and crystalline, exuding the aura of Ancient Great Emperor.
Under the protection of the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar, Su Yu approached the small tree, which was slowly burning, the flames forming patches of runes!
One after another, small worlds crumbled and then reformed, a bizarre and uncanny phenomenon. It could actually burn away the heavens and collapse Eternal, but in the end, it was always repaired!
Without the protection of an imperial artifact, even Saint would be burned to ashes upon encountering this cluster of Immortal Fire.
Su Yu opened his Source Heaven Divine Eyes and stared at the flames composed of runes for a while before finally taking out a piece of purple jade pendant.
Chapter 93 The Spirit of Immortal Fire
"Chirp chirp..."
The tree flames flickered, less than a meter high. On one of the branches, a small bird appeared, its wings shimmering, chirping incessantly. Like the flames, it was composed of runes and Dao principles.
"The flames resemble True Phoenix; are they Immortal Fire born from the fall of True Phoenix from the Perfect World Era? Or...?"
Su Yu carefully observed the cluster of Immortal Fire through his Source Heaven Divine Eyes. It resembled a phoenix, lifelike, smaller than the palm of his hand, and moved amidst the flames, mysterious and unpredictable. He had some guesses about this situation...
However, he didn't think much of it and took out the purple jade pendant. He stared at the ghost-faced jade pendant, but the reality disappointed him.
This piece of purple jade remains unchanged, just like any other ordinary jade.
"The ghost-faced human face—what exactly is this pattern that matches the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar?"
Su Yu looked at the purple jade pendant in his hand, while the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar above his head floated in the Void, emitting strands of deep black light, with thousands of auspicious rays falling down, which was extremely astonishing.
The two patterns are remarkably similar, both depicting a ghostly face with a half-smile, which is incredibly strange, and in some ways quite eerie.
However, ever since Su Yu transmigrated, he has carried the purple jade pendant with him. After transmigrating to the Shrouding the Heavens Realm, the Devouring Heaven Demon Lid has always been by his side. He is extremely familiar with this pattern and even feels a sense of kinship with it.
Just as he was pondering, the purple jade pendant began to move. This ancient and mysterious jade pendant began to emit a faint light, and the ghost face pattern on the pendant was incredibly vivid, as if it were sentient, and there were even faint teardrops falling.
However, unlike the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar, it did not exude a sorrowful aura that resonated with its owner.
The Ghost-Face Jade Jue emitted wisps of purple divine light, utterly serene, while the sapling of Immortal Fire in front of Su Yu also underwent a transformation.
A beautiful little bird on a branch of a runic twig chirped twice, its magnificent wings, shimmering with Nine-Colored Divine Light, unfurled and danced around the trunk. Its ruby-like eyes stared curiously at the Ghost-Face Jade Jue, its bright red pupils shifting slightly, full of life.
Su Yu could even sense the true emotions within this cluster of Immortal Fire; it was as if it were a real living being, utterly real.
" The Spirit of Immortal Fire? Has this cluster of Immortal Fire developed sentience over the long years?"
Before Su Yu could figure out the reason, the jade pendant, radiating dazzling purple light, began to fly out of Su Yu's hand on its own, slowly flying forward and getting incredibly close to the Spirit of Immortal Fire.
Su Yu did not stop it. He watched as the purple jade pendant approached the Immortal Fire. The temperature of this Immortal Fire was enough to burn all worlds and destroy the Nine Heavens.
This is the ultimate flame at the end of the Fire Domain. Although it does not appear bright or dazzling, it is actually one of the most terrifying things in this era.
However, this jade pendant is definitely of a higher level than the Immortal Fire, so Su Yu is not worried about it being damaged.
The jade pendant, radiating purple light, flew directly into the tree flames, like a bully intruding into someone's home, slowly absorbing and exhaling the runes around the Immortal Fire.
The intricate and mystical flame runes flowed into the ghost face's mouth like streams of light, clearly causing the Immortal Fire to stir.
The colorful little birds that had been flying around the rune tree also flew to the side of the Ghost-Face Jade Jue. Their tiny claws gently touched the surface of the jade pendant, and their bodies, which were as Phoenix Blood Red Gold, trembled slightly. Their small eyes were filled with great doubt.
After fiddling with it a couple of times, I discovered that the purple jade wouldn't melt. The Spirit of Immortal Fire chirped twice and emitted a sliver of light.
This tiny glimmer of light, seemingly insignificant, was terrifying. It was the essence of Immortal Fire exhaled by the dazzling little bird. Even before it got close, the terrifying temperature was already there, burning even the nearby Void to ashes.
Su Yu was very close to this cluster of Immortal Fire. The Chaos energy flowing down from the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar surged, and the terrifying extreme energy boiled. A great collision occurred in this space, causing space to distort, the field to surge, and the Great Dao to crush.
The flames emitted by the Immortal Fire caused the extreme aura of this place to resist on its own. A soft sound was heard, and Su Yu quickly retreated dozens of steps. The black soil nearby turned into dust and drifted down into this space.
However, the collision quickly subsided. The essence of the Immortal Fire spewed out by the dazzling divine bird was directly absorbed by the Ghost-Face Jade Jue without causing a ripple, like a bottomless black hole.
Su Yu waited quietly, his eyes fixed on the Ghost-Face Jade Jue, a little uneasy in his heart.
He didn't know if the Xian Dao energy carried by the Immortal Fire could repair the jade pendant, but he wouldn't give up even if there was only a sliver of hope.
As time went by, the runes on the flaming tree became increasingly scarce, and most noticeably, the leaves on the branches all fell off and disappeared.
However, the Spirit of Immortal Fire on the trunk of the Flame Tree did not run away. The beautiful little bird, resembling Immortal Phoenix, was still playing with the Ghost-Face Jade Jue, and strands of divine light emanated from its crimson wings.
This divine bird, like an innocent child, fluttered about, playing happily with Yu Jue, completely unaware that its home had already been partially eaten by the wicked, ghost-faced bully.
Finally, even the trunk of the Flame Tree was missing several sections, the once radiant divine tree lost its brilliance, and a large portion of the surrounding flame divine patterns and Xian Dao runes were gone.
The Spirit of Immortal Fire finally reacted. Its beak, even more dazzling than the Phoenix Blood Red Gold, opened slightly, and its pair of crimson gold divine wings spread out, emitting chirping sounds. The Little Immortal Phoenix dragged the dim flame tree and began to move. With a "rustling" sound, it tore open a piece of Void, trying to escape into the Void.
At this moment Ghost-Face Jade Jue finally detached from the fiery sapling. It floated in the Void, incredibly crystalline. Finally, its jade body moved slightly, exhaling a wisp of purple energy towards the Spirit of Immortal Fire. It was incredibly sacred, radiating an ancient and profound Daoist charm, mysterious and indescribable.
The dazzling bird that was about to leap into the Void seemed to have caught a whiff of something. With a flap of its divine wings, brilliant crimson clouds danced with fiery runes, creating an incomparably beautiful sight. It turned around and flew towards the jade pendant.
It hovered around the deep purple aura, a hint of fascination appearing in its ruby-like eyes. Its beak opened wide, greedily inhaling the purple aura in the Void, and it joyfully spread its divine wings.
It quickly absorbed the purple energy, its agility increased even further, and a hint of clarity appeared in its eyes.
The little red eyes looked around, first glancing left and right at the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar in the Void, then the exquisite bird head shook its head, looked at Su Yu below the jar with a strange expression, and quickly looked away, its eyes fixed on the Ghost-Face Jade Jue, flying around the Ghost-Face Jade Jue happily, emitting chirps.
"This is ignoring me..."
Su Yu seemed to sense the disdain of the Spirit of Immortal Fire, and he stared thoughtfully at the Ghost-Face Jade Jue.
He felt a sense of familiarity with the purple aura that Yu Jue had just exhaled; he seemed to have experienced this purple aura before, during his first cultivation session.
But he cultivated a Chaos dragon that time; could it have any other use?
Chapter 94 The Promise of Cause and Effect
The purple jade pendant emitted a soft glow as it floated from the Void into Su Yu's hand.
Su Yu gently grasped the jade pendant that exuded Daoist charm. This jade pendant was still continuously condensing purple light, and the light it emitted gradually weakened, as if returning to its original simplicity, revealing the extraordinary within the ordinary.
However, Su Yu was reassured, and the divine sense he left in the jade pendant detected the changes in it.
Within the jade pendant, mysterious principles were evolving. Originally, many blurry characters appeared below the host's information, but they were not obvious and were quite indistinct.
However, this result had already surprised him. At the moment, he did not pay much attention to the Ghost-Face Jade Jue, but instead stared coldly at the Immortal Fire not far away.
If the Spirit of Immortal Fire wants to take away the Ghost-Face Jade Jue...
A strong resistance? It's probably useless!
To vow to fight to the death? That's probably difficult!
If such a dramatic situation arises, he'll have no choice but to run away. At worst, he could kidnap Ye Fan and take Ye Fan to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land to escape the trouble. Going to Ye Fan's "in-laws' family" shouldn't be a big problem, since strictly speaking, he's also a member of Ye Fan's "in-laws' family."
He returned to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land as if it were home, where there was both a rare Divine Spring and the fruit of the Nine Marvels Immortal Medicine.
There were even servants and head stewards left behind by their ancestors, who themselves carried divine objects left by their ancestors.
Although these people are highly skilled and most of them don't pay him any attention, Ye Fan is the Empress's "brother," and the head steward will surely provide him with protection out of respect for this fallen imperial concubine.
Even if the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body is as hard as iron and unmoved, and doesn't want to make a move in order to conserve its energy for the Longevity Heavenly Venerable...
At that time, Su Yu will also use his strongest backup plan!
They made Ye Fan, dressed in a tattered white robe, wearing Bronze Ring, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, staggering and trembling as he walked into the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land. Then they made him cry and shout, "It's alright if I die, I'm just worried about my sister!"
Forget it, that's too dangerous. Let's change it to "Sister, save me!"
The Great World of Shrouding the Heavens: The Empress's Brother "99.9% Real-Life Cosplay"!
This was Su Yu's biggest backup plan, which he had always kept hidden in his heart.
The art of mutual destruction!
Although that situation would most likely be worse than being hunted by Immortal Fire, the Empress would probably kill him once she awakens. No matter his identity, it wouldn't save him. Don't even mention the Ruthless One Lineage; even if you were the current Great Emperor, it wouldn't help...
In the blink of an eye, all these outrageous actions flashed through Su Yu's mind.
Ye Fan had just finished his seclusion in the Southern Region, was still working hard to break through to the Divine Spring. These days, he had been studying the mysterious scriptures taught by Su Yu, which had opened up a whole new world for him.
In particular, the supreme treasure of heaven and earth, "Source," is a divine object that is perfectly suited to his Desolate Ancient Sacred Body. It is an unparalleled divine object that is condensed between heaven and earth and contains a large amount of Life essence.
Just as he was rubbing his hands together, ready to make a big splash, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
"What's going on? I'm already a cultivator, why am I still having this feeling? Is it a soul warning?"
Ye Fan looked around in surprise and doubt. He possessed a great treasure and had also obtained a precious scripture.
"Are there always treacherous subjects trying to harm me, like Duan De?"
The Spirit of Immortal Fire, seemingly forged from Phoenix Blood Red Gold, watched the Ghost-Face Jade Jue depart without making a move.
It stared blankly at Su Yu, flew around for a while in a daze, and then the tree flames slowly disappeared. But the phoenix did not retreat. It hovered in mid-air, staring at the ghost-faced jade pendant, and exhaled many rays of light.
At this moment, the blood-red phoenix wings merged with the bright flames, countless runes rapidly evolved, a vast aura swept over, and endless Dao patterns flickered, transforming into tangible matter and becoming a dazzling, rainbow-like crimson glow.
The shape of the crimson cloud resembles a miniature version of the Spirit of Immortal Fire, incredibly lifelike and exquisite.
