Su Fan's opportunity, Jiang Xueyi and Shangguan Feiyue
Boom, boom, boom!
Within the extradimensional space, thunderous rumbling rang out without end, as though a furious dragon of the Nine Nether were howling and roaring.
The Nine Nether Rebirth Boat turned into a streak of ghostly light, traveling through the extradimensional space at an indescribable speed.
Endless chaotic spatial currents poured away to either side, like stars clustering around the moon.
Meanwhile.
Profound Domain, the Land of Divine Fall.
Heaven and earth were extremely chaotic here, and it was also a place filled with all manner of legends.
Some said this had once been the battlefield of the "gods" in ancient times. Others said it was where a supreme God King had fallen. Accounts differed, and after untold ages had passed, no one knew what was true anymore!
The only certainty was that this place held countless opportunities, all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and all kinds of ancient inheritances. Some obtained resources here and soared to the heavens in a single bound, while others left their lives here forever!
This place was filled with legends, but also despair. Some soared to the heavens in a single bound, standing proudly above the nine heavens; others were buried here, vanishing without a sound. Some called it a secret realm, while others called it a forbidden land!
And here.
At the bottom of an abyss.
This place was vast and boundless, with no sky and no earth, only endless flames, turbulent heat, and terrifying fluctuations spilling everywhere!
Blood-colored flames burned across the expanse, radiating endless heat that enveloped this place in every direction!
Yet.
At that moment, a handsome young man sat at the center of those blood-colored flames, the endless, mighty blaze around him constantly burning his body!
"Ah..."
Heart-shuddering screams escaped the handsome young man's mouth, filled with endless pain and unspeakable anguish!
The blood-colored flames constantly burned his internal organs, his blood, flesh, sinews, bones, and skin. Excruciating pain swept through his entire body!
The veins beneath his skin bulged, and his whole body trembled without cease. The blood Qi within him had long since boiled over and even begun to burn, making him resemble a human furnace.
"Su Fan!!! Su Fan!!! What's wrong? What's wrong? Are you all right? Miss Feiyue, let go of me! Let me go to him!"
Far away, within a pocket of space, a woman with an extremely tense expression watched the handsome young man in the sea of blood-colored fire, shouting anxiously over and over.
The woman was extraordinarily beautiful, like a fairy from the nine heavens who had fallen into the mortal world. Though touched by a trace of mortal dust, she still possessed an immortal grace that seemed to come from the nine heavens. She did not seem to belong to the secular world, her beauty like that of a sprite, like a fairy in a painting, intoxicating enough to inspire love and draw one helplessly into its depths.
Though her pure, exquisitely beautiful face was filled with anxiety, tension, and worry, it remained utterly flawless. Her long white dress danced in the wind, revealing a perfect, crystalline grace born of the world's finest essence, as though all the immortal grace in the world had gathered in her alone!
As she spoke, she moved to rush toward the sea of fire, but the woman beside her stopped her.
"Miss Jiang, don't act rashly at a time like this. Your concern is clouding your judgment. This is an opportunity and a stroke of fortune meant for Su Fan. As long as he endures it, he will be utterly transformed, and his achievements will be unimaginable!"
The woman who spoke was likewise a rare, peerless beauty. She wore a close-fitting pink dress, her figure incomparably alluring, and an unusual fragrance emanated from her body. Though a veil covered her face, her exposed, beautiful eyes resembled pools of autumn water. They were clearly seductive and enticing, yet gave an impression of vivacity and wisdom!
"I know, but, but... Su Fan is suffering so much. I can feel it!"
Hearing Shangguan Feiyue's words, Jiang Xueyi slowly calmed down, but as her beautiful eyes, like the bright moon, watched Su Fan in the sea of blood-colored fire, the worry within them remained impossible to conceal.
"Su Fan will make it through. We have to believe in him. We can't distract him now. If something goes wrong, he'll be reduced to ashes!"
Seeing such deep affection in this woman, who resembled a fairy from the nine heavens and whom she had met only a day ago, Shangguan Feiyue could not help feeling surprised. She had thought the two were merely friends, but now it seemed that was not the case!
Just yesterday, upon first arriving at the Land of Divine Fall to temper herself, she had run into a reckless band of lechers who wanted not only to rob her of her wealth, but to violate her as well.
Seeing how low those petty bandits' cultivation was, she had paid them no mind. Who could have known that a moment of carelessness would leave her poisoned by those lechers' Bewildering Powder!
She had intended to send a message to the Dao protectors, guards, maids, and others whom she had left far away in Crimson Firmament Main City, only to discover that her entire body had already gone limp, leaving her unable to move at all.
Just as she was bitterly cursing the dangers and wickedness of the outside world, just as she was regretting sneaking out alone, just as she thought disaster was upon her and she would be defiled, that godlike man had descended in a blaze of peerless brilliance.
"Under these clear heavens, in broad daylight, you dare commit such filthy deeds? You deserve death!"
With just one sentence and one stroke of his sword, the band of dozens of petty bandits in the early, middle, and late stages of the Divine Body Realm had lost their heads and entered the Yellow Springs!
And she had been successfully rescued. After expressing her thanks, the three of them had continued tempering themselves here together!
But just half a day ago, Su Fan had slain the divine son of a super sect, enraging its ancestor at the great perfection of the Divine Soul Realm. Bringing all the sect's top experts, he had torn through the void in towering fury to hunt them down!
Beneath that overwhelmingly terrifying killing intent, she had not even had a chance to announce her background before she, Su Fan, and Jiang Xueyi were blasted down into this abyss together!
In the end, things had come to this: a blood-colored flame had inexplicably entered Su Fan's body, and now he was fusing with it. Such an opportunity truly made her terribly envious!
Scalding, scalding, scalding!
Hot, hot, hot!
Pain, pain, pain! It hurt! It hurt terribly! This was exactly what Su Fan felt at that moment. His entire being was burning; his flesh, bones, and soul were all being scorched, and excruciating pain swept through his whole body!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
By now, his bones had cracked, and his flesh was a mangled, charred mess, constantly burning away and constantly regenerating. He bared his teeth, his whole body convulsing as he gritted his teeth and endured, seemingly having forgotten even how to scream!
"Su Fan!!!"
"Su Fan!!!"
Seeing Su Fan endure such agony, Jiang Xueyi felt as though ten thousand knives and a thousand swords were slicing through every part of her heart. It hurt! It hurt so much! Her fists involuntarily clenched, her nails having sunk deep into her flesh without her knowing when!
Drip!
Drip!
Blood dripped down.
It slid through the void.
And fell into the darkness.
Just as Jiang Xueyi seemed about to lose the ability to endure this anguish in her heart and was about to throw herself into the sea of blood-colored fire regardless of everything, a jade-like hand reached out and caught her flawless, slender arm!
