Chapter 1402
by post_apiChapter 1402: The Fiery Sea of Shadows
The closer they got to the purple enchantment near the mouth of the pot, the more Su Yi could feel the towering demonic energy in the distance, rising up like a pillar towards the sky, slowly ascending like a water column.
A thunderous roar echoed, and the power of the heavens and earth descended upon the surroundings!
The energy between the heavens and earth, like a raging wave, instantly fluctuated intensely, compressing the air and creating a series of spatial ripples.
The energy of the heavens and earth was peculiar, carrying a tremendous pressure, as if it had descended from ancient times. Then, all at once, it rushed towards the crevice in the gorge.
Su Yi and Yang Ming exchanged a glance, then rushed into the crevice in the gorge.
As they entered the crevice, boundless darkness rushed towards Su Yi like tidal water. Su Yi’s energy circulated, allowing him to navigate inside the mountain with the help of faint light.
Su Yi activated the Heavens Taming Incantation, and his Heavenly Yuan Demonic Soul inside his body quickly emitted a bright light. Having learned from his previous mistake, he could be certain that this place was definitely not just an optical illusion.
While walking slowly, they heard some intense fighting sounds in the distance.
Su Yi and Yang Ming quickly restrained their energy and rushed towards the mountain to find out what happened.
"Sikong Shang, what are you doing?" a deep and powerful voice sounded from afar.
"Boom!"
Su Yi and Yang Ming had arrived nearby and found a flat area to hide quietly.
Looking down, they recognized several familiar figures: Sikong Shang from the Xuanying Sect, Xuan Shuang and Elder Chen Chuan from the Cangyun Temple.
On one side of the Cangyun Temple, the two were confronting Sikong Shang, while the three of them were surrounded by a field of flowers.
The field of flowers was full and radiated a strange white light, swaying in the wind.
Su Yi was surprised and remembered seeing this rare flower in the records at Yutian Palace.
This kind of flower is called Ghost Burning Flower, it is very rare and has a strong ability to capture souls. It is an excellent medicine for refining yellow-grade pills called Soul-stealing Seven Soul Pill.
By taking this medicine, one can increase their fighting power in a short period of time. However, unless they have a very strong soul talent, they are very likely to suffer backlashes.
But the medicine is delicate and can hardly survive independently in the outside world. It’s unexpected to find such a large field of Ghost Burning Flowers here.
Su Yi secretly thought that this place is filled with demonic energy and abundant spiritual energy, definitely suitable for the growth of Ghost Burning Flowers. However, for such a huge Ghost Burning Flower to grow so well, it must be intentionally done by someone.
Looking at Xuan Shuang beside him, her expression was heavy and her body was surrounded by a bright white light. Her face was solemn, and the deep, old voice just now was emitted by Xuan Shuang.
At this moment, Sikong Shang seemed a bit crazy, holding a Ghost Burning Flower in his hand and still chewing on it. His eyes were filled with fierce light, very violent.
"Hahaha!" While saying that, he swallowed another Ghost Burning Flower into his mouth and chewed it powerfully.
"What am I doing? Xuan Shuang, hand over the Starshine Token, or you can all die!"
The once cunning and treacherous Sikong Shang at the valley entrance now appeared extremely evil. His pupils were blood red, and his body was filled with an incredibly violent energy, like a lunatic.
"Oh no, he swallowed Ghost Burning Flower!"
Su Yi was also surprised. Ghost Burning Grass has a very strong soul-absorbing ability, but for a strong person in the Yuan Zong Realm, resisting it is not difficult.
But if it is ingested, Ghost Burning Grass directly affects the soul. The intense medicinal power can enhance combat strength in a short period of time, similar to the self-detonation of a demon beast’s essence, but it only causes damage to the soul.
Seeing Sikong Shang, who looked like a demon, with a wave of his wide sleeves, a huge gust of wind formed a wave, like a small storm shooting directly. In the area of the cableway, there were dull and astonishing sounds, as if thunder was exploding within the small mountain.
Explosive sounds reverberated, shaking the heavens and the earth, then immediately stopped and became still, as there seemed to be very profound prohibitions within the mountain.
"Crash!" (sound effect)
Xuan Shuang’s white robe swayed, with a flick of his sleeve, a stream of vital energy radiated like a ribbon, forming a circle around his body, directly isolating the gust of wind from the outside.
"Chen Chuan, he swallowed Ghost Burning Flower. If we don’t subdue him quickly, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Chen Chuan beside him nodded slightly, a surge of killing intent rising. In his hand appeared a square heaven spear, with his robe fluttering behind him, he said in a low voice.
"Elder Xuan Shuang, attack!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
As soon as the words fell, the small plain was instantly filled with a bright and overwhelming burst of energy, accompanied by the resonating sound of clashing.
The fierce gust of wind brushed against Su Yi’s face, carrying a mighty and dominant force that spread like a menacing aura, engulfing everything in its path.
In an instant, a sharp and icy sword light flashed, turning the stones that concealed Su Yi into dust.
"Let’s go! Go through that field of flowers!" Su Yi quickly sent a message of energy to Yang Ming.
Su Yi paused for a moment, as the stones exploded, and his fire attribute energy quickly rose up. He flew swiftly through the air with Yang Ming, leaving two blurry figures behind.
"Su Yi!"
In the midst of the intense battle, Sikong Shang and Xuan Shuang, among others, saw two figures suddenly streaking across the sky. Upon closer inspection, they realized it was Su Yi from the Overlord Sect.
Sikong Shang escaped from the battle and with a push and a pull of his palm, a yellow light in the shape of a dragon attacked Su Yi. At the same time, he quickly moved his body and prepared to chase after Su Yi.
"Bang!"
When Xuan Shuang saw Su Yi, she was also happy in her heart because the Overlord Sect and the Cangyun Temple had formed an alliance.
It was a great thing to have an ally appear in this place.
Seeing Su Yi suffering, a fiery passion surged in Xuan Shuang’s eyes, and she swiftly extended her palm like a sharp blade.
The incredibly sharp red blade light erupted like a volcano, and clashed with Sikong Shang’s aura in the air.
"Boom!"
The clash of auras created an extremely domineering force, and the sound of clashing weapons filled the air.
The intense energy quickly raised the temperature of the surrounding air, and everything around started burning at high speed.
The entire Ghost Burning Flower Field burst into flames in an instant, and the fire surged within the mountain, making the air incredibly hot and fierce.
Above the flower field, Chen Chuan flew rapidly and shouted loudly. Another burst of energy shot out from his mouth, blocking Sikong Shang’s path. His face turned cold and he spoke in a low voice.
"Where do you think you’re going!"
Then Sikong and Chen started fighting again, and Su Yi looked at the numerous Ghost Burning Flowers on the ground, feeling a great pain in his heart. At that moment, he heard Elder Xuan Shuang’s voice transmission.
"Sect Leader Su, Chen Chuan and I will hold off Sikong Shang. Please go and check the secret realm deep inside. Don’t let Sikong Shang get there first. Remember, we are allies!"
Elder Xuan Shuang emphasized the word "allies", as Su Yi’s understanding came from Wei Hong and Elder Xie Wuxu.
At this moment, Xuan Shuang could only choose to trust Su Yi and place his hopes on him.
Su Yi looked deeply at Xuan Shuang, pondered for a moment, then nodded firmly at Elder Xuan Shuang. He quickly flew towards the depths with Yang Ming.
