The Eternal Supreme

Chapter 216: Fire Suppression

Li Yi, who was healing himself in the distance, stared at Yunxiao in terror with his eyes widened.

Although they were both Martial Lords, he felt the gap between them grow greater and greater. Ever since Yunxiao was a Warrior, he had not taken him seriously. Now that both of them were Martial Lords, Yunxiao’s domineering aura pricked his eyes, and he realized that he was not even qualified to look him in the eye!

A monstrous resentment and hatred rose in Li Yi’s heart, and he cursed, hoping Yunxiao would be slapped to death by Xingyang Huo.

“What a presumptuous boy!” Xingyang Huo was so angry that he laughed. “Who do you think you are?”

Yunxiao’s killing intent did not diminish, and his voice grew colder. “You are the last old dog left in the Xingyang family. In a short while, the Xingyang family will be completely wiped out of the continent.”

“You are looking for death!”

Xingyang Huo’s nostrils flared. He had an unrealistic feeling at the thought that his family, which had been standing strong for over a thousand years in Firecrow Empire, was inexplicably destroyed by a young man. He was more willing to accept if it were destroyed by the Supreme Palace.

“After I burn you to ashes, I’ll refine this pagoda, open it, and flay every person that is close to you!”

With both hands, Xingyang Huo kept drawing circles. Flames rolled and spat around him, and they soon formed into a huge fireball, which he lifted over his head and flung down. The fireball was so huge that it measured some thirty meters wide. Falling like the sun, it burned off everything in the surroundings in a flash.

“Explode, flaming meteor shower!”

Xingyang Huo performed an incantation gesture with one hand and cried out. With that, the fireball blew apart with a boom, splitting into thousands of fireballs and falling like a meteor shower.

All the experts in the sky held their breaths and concentrated on the attack. The flames were so strong that even they could feel waves of heat from thousands of miles above. The power of the attack was definitely not weaker than that of a one-star Martial Emperor. It seemed that Xingyang Huo’s decision of neglecting his cultivation base and refining the Bluelotus Earth Fire in seclusion was correct.

With the help of this strange fire of the heaven and earth, it would be very easy for him to become a Martial Emperor. And by that time, ordinary Martial Emperors would be no match for him at all.

As the blazing flames came whistling down, an idea suddenly struck Yunxiao. A force began to surge in his spiritual ocean, and he suddenly gave a loud cry as he bent his body forward and stretched out his arms to both sides.

The Divine Realm Tablet next to him was connected with his heart, and a deeper insight came to his spiritual ocean. Attracted by the strange fire of heaven and earth, the divine fire in the depths of his soul burned fiercer, and his whole spiritual ocean suddenly turned into a sea of flames, which were about to break out of his body through the flaming cloud between his eyebrows.

Yunxiao’s expression changed drastically. Even with the Divine Realm Tablet nourishing his soul power, the sea of flames in his spiritual ocean was out of his control. If they rushed out, the consequences would be unimaginable!

“Roar!”

He threw his head back and roared, forcibly suppressing the flames in his spiritual ocean. All of a sudden, his whole body turned red and his blood seemed to be on fire.

With the roar, the flaming meteor shower that blotted out the sky seemed to halt for a brief moment before it smashed down with immense fear. However, it no longer had the mighty aura, and seemed to intentionally avoid Yunxiao, only exploding around him and turning into a sea of flames that burned the ground.

No one noticed this subtle detail, but it deeply shocked Xingyang Huo.

He was spiritually connected with the Bluelotus Earth Fire, so he naturally could sense the fear and shock that came from the depths of the soul.

“Strange fire! He also has a strange fire of the heaven and earth in his body!”

Xingyang Huo’s eyes grew wide with excitement. He practiced fire-element cultivation techniques all his life and was exposed to countless fires. The Bluelotus Earth Fire was already a very strong strange fire of the heaven and earth, but the level of the strange fire inside Yunxiao must be far greater than it!

“This extraordinary object of heaven and earth is not what a mere Martial Lord like you can own!” His figure flashed, and he rushed inside the sea of flames in the next moment while roaring ferociously, “Let’s see what kind of existence is hiding inside your body!”

Amidst the blazing flames was a vacuum zone.

Yunxiao was struggling with a painful look on his face. He had used all his strength to suppress the Phoenix True Flame in him, but to no avail. And his Tyrant Body was showing signs of melting under the flames, with heat waves rushing out of his skin from time to time.

“This is…”

When Xingyang Huo rushed into the sea of flames and sensed Yunxiao’s aura, his pupils constricted abruptly; it was a powerful ancient aura that filled his heart with a chill. Even though he was inside a sea of fire, he did not feel warm at all.

“An ancient divine fire…This kind of feeling…I can’t believe it is actually an essence inherited from the ancient times…” He became incoherent with excitement. “You don’t deserve such a rare treasure of the heaven and earth! Give me! Give me the fire at once!”

He wanted to seize the fire, but he was intimidated by the aura, and he did not dare to go forward.

There was a painful look in Yunxiao’s eyes. Suddenly, they burst with a light while the flaming cloud between his eyebrows appeared, with the ancient essence of a true fire rippling out of it.

Jiu!

A faint bird cry, which sounded as if it came from ancient times, echoed through the sea of fire. In that instant, the blazing Bluelotus Earth Fire cooled down, as if it was sprinkled with water. The flames were still burning, but their temperature seemed to have dropped below zero degrees.

Xingyang Huo halted in place. Spiritually connected with the Bluelotus Earth Fire, he also felt the chill at the same time. It was not a chill emanated from his foe, but a chill produced from the tremendous fear inside the Bluelotus Earth Fire’s spiritual sense!

“What exactly is it?! How could it make my strange fire so scared?” Xingyang Huo widened his eyes as he struggled to resist the fear that came from the depths of his soul. The Earth Fire’s spiritual sense was severely damaged, which directly affected his mind, and he was devoured by fear in an instant.

What frightened him even more was that with the bird cry ringing out, a dreamlike, barely visible fire came roaring out from between Yunxiao’s eyebrows. It rushed into his body and instantly burned more than half of his energy. He felt as if he had fallen into a hell of fire and was about to burst into flames.

“This is…”

Paying no mind to the serious injury in his body, Xingyang Huo’s eyes turned glassy for a moment and his pupils constricted. He finally remembered what was the beautiful illusory thing he saw just now. He jumped into the air as if he were struck by a bolt of lightning and cried out, “I can’t believe it is…”

“Let me take care of him.” A sigh fell from the sky and broke Xingyang Huo’s voice. Meanwhile, a beam of light fell out of the Bluewolf chariot, and in the blink of an eye, Duan Yue landed in front of Xingyang Huo with an indifferent face, his Heavenly Halberd behind his back.

Puke!

Yunxiao coughed out a mouthful of blood. After the ancient phoenix essence rushed out of the flaming cloud, the flames inside his spiritual ocean calmed down, and were controlled by him and pushed back into his soul. But, his whole body was severely wounded. He could not help but cough out a mouthful of blood as he took a few steps back before managing to regulate his aura.

Ever since he got the Phoenix Divine Fire, he had tried countless times to control it, hoping he could at least condense a wisp of real phoenix flame outside his body. But, all his attempts ended in failure.

When he helped the Kunwu Divine Tree be reborn in the depths of the South Sea, he tried controlling the divine fire for the first time, and he felt it to be so handy. That rekindled his ambition to control the divine fire. That was why he made Duan Yue stay inside the chariot while he came down alone. After all, there were too many experts in the sky, and a two-stars Martial Emperor was definitely a very strong trump card. He did not wish to expose it too early.

But, he did not expect that he would fail to control it. Only now did he realize that when he was in the South Sea, it was because of the tremendous amount of Spirit Qi poured into him by the Kunwu Divine Tree that he was able to control the divine fire. And even so, he had to pay the price of rebirth at the same time.

A divine object inherited from ancient times was indeed not that simple! He reckoned that without the strength of a Martial Sovereign, he would not be able to control it.

“You…Who are you?”

Xingyang Huo was taken aback. Duan Yue’s strength of a seven-stars Martial Grandmaster did not put him on his guard. Even though he was severely wounded now, it would only take him minutes to take care of this man. Yunxiao was who he feared the most now.

But in a flash, Duan Yue performed an incantation gesture with one hand and recited a spell, and his aura suddenly began to rise, breaking into the Seven Constellations realm within a few breaths.

“A Martial Emperor! ”

“A two-stars Martial Emperor!”

It was that moment when Xingyang Huo got a srious fright. He sucked in a breath as he took a few steps back and said in horror, “Who exactly are you?”

Under his control, the surrounding flames retracted into his body, quickly repairing his meridians and flesh that were burned by the illusory Phoenix True Flame. A strange fire was magical. It could not only attack, but also nourish the body and meridians and heal wounds.

As the flames disappeared, the situation on the ground immediately revealed to all eyes.

Although those experts sensed something strange about Yunxiao just now, they were not uncertain.

Now, when they saw he was blackened and covered in wounds, with specks of blood on his chest, they thought he was injured by Xingyang Huo’s Bluelotus Earth Fire, and they all looked surprised. With only the cultivation base of a one-star Martial Lord, Yunxiao survived the Earth Fire, which made these experts feel incredible.

But, then they were astonished, because the aura emanated from Duan Yue was pressing on their chests like a great mountain, making it difficult for them to breathe!

“A two-stars Martial Emperor!” Xin Pi’s pupils constricted with a shocked look on his face.

Zhu Jin and Ao Dijia also looked at each other in horror. Under this southern sky, all Martial Emperors were like overlords.

“Who is this man? Why have I never met him before?” The expression on Zhu Jin’s face was extremely serious. They basically knew all the famous Martial Emperors.

Ao Dijia shook his head and said lightly, “He’d better be a hermit of some sect. I’m just worried…”

Everyone understood what he meant. What they worried the most was that the experts of the other three regions had come to their region. The Heavenly Martial Continent was divided into four regions, and the overall strength of the South was the weakest. They simply could not compete with the other three regions.

Outside the four major regions were other transcendental places, and common people had no idea where they were.

The Holy Realm that nominally ruled the Heavenly Martial Continent was an example. Most people only knew that such a place existed, but few knew exactly where it was. And then there was the Sea of Soul Formation. Only when an alchemist reached the seventh-tier and went to a corresponding place would someone guide him there.
