A soft green light emanated from the Wings of Life, then quietly merged into the Chaos energy flow, rapidly spreading outwards.

After a long time, Lu Qingshan finally discovered the appearance of that life in his consciousness.

"As expected, it's a fire-based life form."

A hint of a smile flashed in Lu Qingshan's eyes.

As Desperate Land within the Universe Ocean, the Burning Flame Sea, though not as infamous as the Tilted Peak Realm, the Universe Boat, or the Liuzhong Mountain, is still an extremely dangerous region that has nurtured countless unique flame-based life forms.

These fiery creatures have no intelligence, only a destructive instinct, but they are often accompanied by precious treasures.

Whoosh!

Lu Qingshan's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

His figure darted about quickly, in a matter of moments.

He was already above that fiery life form.

It was a colossal beast formed from crimson flames, shaped like a tiger, tens of thousands of kilometers long, with flames radiating astonishing heat around it.

Its senses were extremely sharp; the moment Lu Qingshan appeared, it abruptly raised its head, its eyes, composed of flames, fixed intently on the uninvited guest. "Roar!"

The fiery behemoth let out a deafening roar, spewing out a blazing white pillar of fire that hurtled straight toward Lu Qingshan.

The temperature of that pillar of fire far exceeded that of the surrounding pale yellow flames; even Universe Master would likely be instantly vaporized if struck head-on.

"Indeed, the flame lifeforms in this Burning Flame Sea are stronger than the Water Flow Spirit in the Tilted Peak Realm Waters!"

However, Lu Qingshan simply turned slightly to the side and easily dodged the attack.

He also made a move.

The golden World Projection instantly enveloped an area of several light-years, and the fiery behemoth's figure suddenly froze, as if it were being pressed down by a golden world.

It struggled frantically, its flames surging as it tried to break free from its terrible restraints.

But how could a mere fire-based being devoid of intelligence possibly withstand the power of the Eternal Kingdom, Peak Domain Supreme Treasure?

"Years!"

Lu Qingshan held the Eternal Holy Sword in his hand.

With just one sword strike, Time-Space froze.

The terrifying fiery behemoth's figure seemed to overlap in the void, and a terrifying sword beam traversed countless overlapping planes, precisely striking the fiery behemoth's head.

boom!

The fiery behemoth didn't even have time to scream before its massive body shattered under the blow, turning into countless sparks that scattered in all directions.

Just one strike.

This terrifying fire creature, comparable to Fourth-Order Universe Master, vanished into thin air.

The Time Slash is only Sixth-Order Secret Technique, but when combined with the Supreme Supreme Treasure, it can easily unleash the power of Level 7 technique. With Level 3 difference, even without using the Divine Power Burning Secret Technique, it can easily kill the opponent!

Then Lu Qingshan flew towards the original location of the fire creature and found a large pile of blood-red ore under the fire creature's body, like a treasure mountain.

" Flowing Fire Star Sand... and there's so much of it."

Looking at the large pile of small fragments of ore, Lu Qingshan showed a surprised expression. The reward for killing this flame life form was much greater than the reward for killing a Water Flow Spirit.

Sure enough, venturing into the Desperate Land Universe Ocean was full of surprises.

Flowing Fire Star Sand. This is an extremely precious material for refining Supreme Treasure.

He had used just a tiny bit inside the Flame Cave of the Master of Craftsman God, and he could already feel the intense resentment Master of Craftsman God... This shows that even for the Master of Craftsman God, this thing was an extremely rare treasure.

With so much Flowing Fire Star Sand, crafting dozens of fire-attribute Supreme Treasure shouldn't be a problem.

With a wave of his hand, Lu Qingshan stored all the ores into his storage arm guard, and then headed deeper into the Burning Flame Sea once again.

The flames here are already quite powerful; Top Overlord would be instantly melted upon arrival. However, they are still far from the flames he seeks.

As they ventured deeper, the color of the flames in this Flame World of the Burning Flame Sea changed, gradually shifting from pale yellow to orange and then red. With each color change, the temperature rose sharply, making the flames incredibly terrifying.

In this process.

Lu Qingshan also encountered three flame creatures. Without hesitation, he attacked and killed them all, obtaining some special treasures from the Burning Flame Sea.

One of the fiery beings even contributed a Fire Spirit Pearl to him, a very rare item... a precious treasure for cultivating the Fire-Space Law.

About a century later, Lu Qingshan arrived at an area where the flames were pure white, and the surrounding temperature had reached a terrifying level.

"The flames here are similar to the flames inside the black gourd of the Master of Craftsman God."

Lu Qingshan looked around. The white flames were like a vast ocean, each one radiating a terrifyingly high temperature capable of melting even the Top-tier Supreme Treasure. Even Universe Master would not be able to endure this for long without Peak Palace Supreme Treasure or Peak Armor Supreme Treasure.

But he was completely unaffected.

It's not that the divine body is so strong, but rather the Purple-Gold Coiled Dragon Armor!

A purple-gold suit of armor appeared on his body, its surface adorned with countless dragon patterns, radiating an immense aura of power.

The white flames touched the armor and were kept out, unable to harm his divine body in the slightest.

"Using Supreme Treasure of the Void True God Level to defend against such a small flame is truly a waste of its potential."

Lu Qingshan smiled slightly. He took out the black gourd that the Master of Craftsman God had made for him. The gourd absorbed a lot of the flames here with just a single suction.

The white flames here are similar to those collected by the Master of Craftsman God, and are more than enough to refine most of the most Supreme Treasure.

This is also the flame that Lu Qingshan needs.

Refining Supreme Treasure doesn't mean the stronger the flame, the better. Even a trace of a powerful flame can directly weather away True Treasure materials. This white flame, however, can refine Top-Tier Heavy Treasure and Ordinary Supreme Treasure with just a trace of its power... The most suitable one is the best.

Of course, even though he had obtained these white flames, he had no intention of leaving. The most terrifying Flame of Burning Heaven in this Burning Flame Sea was his true target.

That was a legendary flame capable of forging Supreme Supreme Treasure. Even if he didn't need it for the time being, he could still get his hands on it to avoid having to come back here again later. This white Flame World was almost Endless. After flying for a long time, he took out the Eternal Temple and rode forward in the supreme Supreme Treasure Palace.

With his abilities, venturing into the Desperate Land reaches of the Universe Ocean would be much easier for him than for the average Universe Supreme Master.

The Wings of Life's perception remains ever-present.

If he encounters a creature of fire, he will also take action to kill it and plunder its wealth. As for the treasures in other places, he has no time to explore them inch by inch.

The deepest part of the Burning Flame Sea.

The flames here are no longer pure white, but an almost transparent color, as if even the light has been burned away.

In the center of this sea of flames, there are countless vortexes of fire.

Within one of the enormous vortexes, a colossal, crimson creature, resembling Metal Lifeform, hid.

His appearance is similar to that of a human, yet he is distinctly different. A pair of wings made of flames flutter slightly on his back, and his two eyes are like two burning Star Level.

Master of Fire.

The most powerful Universe Master the Fire Source Race, Level 5 powerhouse, has cultivated for countless eons deep within this Burning Flame Sea. As the Universe Master of the First Reincarnation Era, it is now difficult for him to advance any further.

"Um?"

The Master of Fire suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze piercing through the layers of flames as he looked into the distance.

The environment here weakens other Universe Master, but strengthens him. In his perception, an aura is approaching from afar.

That aura was not weak; it was at least at the level of Fifth-Order Universe Master. Moreover, the Palace Supreme Treasure seemed to be at the level of Supreme Supreme Treasure.

" The Lord of Myriad Laws for humankind?"

The Master of Fire looked at the palace, a glint of greed flashing in his eyes.

He was the Universe Master in the First Reincarnation Era. Although he was powerful, he had very few Supreme Treasure. The only one he could boast about was a Peak Domain Supreme Treasure that King Zhen Jia had bestowed upon him.

If he could seize the treasure from that human... his strength would surpass the Level 5 and reach the Level 6.

"The clan leader said that the Lord of Myriad Laws is someone who must be killed. I never expected him to appear in this Burning Flame Sea. Haha, this is truly a godsend!"

The Master of Fire stood up, and the flames around him suddenly surged.

The Lord of Myriad Laws possesses the Palace Supreme Supreme Treasure, making him incredibly difficult to kill. Fortunately, this is the Burning Flame Sea, where he has cultivated for almost an entire Reincarnation Era. His understanding of this place surpasses even his understanding of his Divine Kingdom ... "In other places, I would be no match for him, and even if we encountered each other, I would have to turn and run. But here... as long as I trap him in that Burning Flame Abyss, even the Palace Supreme Supreme Treasure cannot stop him... After he perishes, all I need to do is wait for the next abyss eruption, and everything will be mine!"

A cold smile crept across the Master of Fire's lips.

He began to make traps.

Under his manipulation, the transparent flames deep within the Burning Flame Sea rapidly condensed towards a single point.

After a long time, the flames here had gathered to an extremely terrifying degree, resembling the singularity of a cosmic Black Hole.

However, even as the singularity continued to absorb the energy, the surrounding flames quickly filled the area, seemingly without any change.

The Master of Fire grasped the singularity of fire in his hand, and then the flames seemed to merge completely with him, his body dissipating into the flames.

It's as if it never existed in the first place...

Countless light-years away.

Inside the Eternal Temple, Lu Qingshan looked towards the location of the Master of Fire, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"Disappeared..." He could sense that the divine power of the Master of Fire had completely vanished, but the life force remained.

In other words, he was still in that place, but apart from the life force, he had nothing else.

The Fire Source Race... beings born of fire, born from Star Level... subordinates of King Zhen Jia, heh heh...

Lu Qingshan watched the other person's performance quietly.

He pretended not to notice and continued flying at a steady speed in that direction... Decades passed, and Lu Qingshan collected some more of the black flames before continuing his journey.

"They're here, they've finally arrived..."

Within a vortex of flames, the Master of Fire was overjoyed, his eyes filled with excitement.

He held the crimson singularity in his hand.

However, just as the Palace Supreme Treasure approached, a look of doubt flashed in his eyes.

Because this Palace Supreme Treasure seemed different from the ones he had seen before. Had the Lord of Myriad Laws actually changed the Palace Supreme Treasure?

The white palace, shrouded in countless mists, blocked his senses, making it impossible for him to perceive any atmosphere within it.

"This Lord of Myriad Laws truly possesses immense wealth; he likely owns more than one Supreme Supreme Treasure. Even if this Palace Supreme Treasure isn't the Supreme Supreme Treasure, it's at least Peak Supreme Treasure." The Master of Fire revealed greed, knowing that his Palace Supreme Treasure was merely a Top-tier Supreme Treasure.

Even a spare Palace Supreme Treasure, Lord of Myriad Laws, is countless times better than him.

"But this is even better!"

After the Palace Supreme Treasure arrive at the location he designed,

The Master of Fire immediately made his move, and the crimson singularity hidden nearby suddenly erupted.

A terrifying impact,

It crashed fiercely into the Palace Supreme Treasure.

Boom boom boom!!!

The white Palace Supreme Treasure almost no resistance, pushing back countless kilometers before being swallowed by a black abyss of flames.

It worked!

The Master of Fire revealed an excited expression; the plan was going even more smoothly than he had imagined.

However, before he could rejoice for long, a destructive sword beam shot towards the vortex of flames where he was. The moment the sword beam collided with the vortex of flames, a blinding light erupted.

The terrifying shockwave spread outwards, no less powerful than the previous explosion.

The vortex of flames shattered under this attack, and the Master of Fire could no longer conceal himself.

"How could this be! Lord of Myriad Laws, what are you doing here?"

The Master of Fire's expression changed drastically.

He never expected that the Lord of Myriad Laws was not among the Palace Supreme Treasure.

Moreover, it can accurately locate its own position.

" Master of Fire, you dare to scheme against me? You're really tired of living."

Lu Qingshan spoke coldly.

His body became transparent, and then he swung his sword again, this time with a power a billion times more terrifying than before.

" The Three-Element Annihilation!"

This is the only Seventh-Order Secret Technique Lu Qingshan has ever created, and it's the first time he's demonstrating it. Seventh-Order Secret Technique, Supreme Supreme Treasure, Divine Power Burning... Even the Universe Supreme Master could be slain before him... let alone a mere Universe Master!

The invisible sword light directly transcended the limitations of Time-Space, and in an instant, it slammed into the Master of Fire's divine body.

"No!!!"

The Master of Fire cried out in terror.

But the sound quickly dissipated.

Under this sword strike, his divine body shattered instantly, turning into nourishment for the Burning Flame Sea.

Several Supreme Treasure popped out from his body and were put away by Lu Qingshan.

A Peak Supreme Treasure Weapon, a Peak Supreme Treasure Armor, a Peak Domain Supreme Treasure, a Top-tier Palace Supreme Treasure, and... countless ores from the Burning Flame Sea.

This Master of Fire had explored the Burning Flame Sea for trillions of epochs. He himself was a fire-based being, and with the perfect timing and location here, he had gathered countless materials, all of which now benefited Lu Qingshan.

Lu Qingshan looked towards the abyss.

"What a pity. That Cloud and Mist Mysterious Heaven Palace has been with me for so long. Now that it's in the abyss, even if it's erupted again, it'll probably be completely destroyed, with only some materials remaining."

Lu Qingshan had come to explore the Burning Flame Sea, so he naturally knew about the place and thus understood the Master of Fire's conspiracy. Although he lost a Peak Palace Supreme Treasure this time, overall he definitely made a huge profit.

Moreover, killing the Master of Fire weakens the power of the World Beast, and the Will of the Original Universe will also grant some rewards.

Lu Qingshan did not leave. He landed where the Master of Fire had been and looked towards the abyss.

The Burning Flame Sea can only obtain a portion of the Flame of Burning Heaven when the abyss erupts; at other times, unless one has the ability to delve deep into the abyss, it is impossible to obtain it!

That abyss—rumored to be the Universe Supreme Master have entered it and never come out—he had no desire to try it.
