258: Refining the demon fire! The strength soars!

Though this cluster of flame was small in volume, if a Six-Star Dou Sheng powerhouse was careless enough to let it enter his body, he would very likely be burned to ashes. Its terrifying power was beyond doubt.

“Purification Lotus Demon Flame, you, the third-ranked strange fire on the strange fire ranking list, will not disgrace your reputation after following me, Gu Fei...”

Gu Fei’s gaze was fixed on this cluster of Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame.

As his voice fell, the strange fire within his body circulated frantically, finally forming a layer of fire armor on the surface of his body.

However, at this moment, Gu Fei’s previously invincible Fusion strange fire was trembling as if it had seen the King of Fire.

“Hiss!”

Despite the trembling of his strange fire, Gu Fei himself showed no sign of retreat.

He quickly extended his palm, passed it through the fire lotus, and grabbed at the pink flame!

“Bang!”

The moment Gu Fei’s palm touched the pink flame, the seemingly tiny flame instantly expanded.

Blazing flames instantly enveloped Gu Fei’s entire body.

Under such terrifying high temperatures, it was impossible for the human body to produce sweat; any liquid that appeared would be instantly evaporated.

“Hoo...”

Even Gu Fei showed a few expressions of pain under the scorching of this strange fire.

This was thanks to his robust Physical Body.

If it were an ordinary Five-Star Dou Sheng, directly scorched by the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, his skin would likely crack very quickly, but Gu Fei’s Physical Body was already comparable to Zi Yan’s Six-Star Dou Sheng ancient Dragon-Phoenix.

“This alone is not enough to make me retreat!”

Gu Fei gritted his teeth, frantically urged the strange fire within his body to resist the destructive high temperature of the Purification Lotus Demon Flame, and finally, with a resolute heart, he directly swallowed the cluster of pink flame in his palm.

“Bang!”

As soon as the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Origin entered his body, Gu Fei felt an intense burning sensation.

Even his powerful Physical Body, which he was proud of, instantly collapsed.

Meridians and flesh were constantly being damaged.

“Refine for me!”

Enduring this excruciating pain, Gu Fei forced himself to calm down. Vast Dou Qi surged within his body, then forcefully enveloped the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Origin, and began to circulate along the Cultivation Technique’s route!

“Boom boom!”

Being refined by Gu Fei’s Dou Qi, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Origin seemed to sense something and instinctively struggled violently.

But fortunately, Gu Fei’s Dou Qi had an inherent suppressive effect on strange fires, and now Gu Fei’s Cultivation had reached Five-Star Dou Sheng.

Moreover, under the suppression of the Nine Yin Yellow Springs Pill, a ninth-grade Medicinal Pill, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was further weakened.

After difficult guidance, Gu Fei finally successfully began to make the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Origin operate smoothly within his Meridians, and wisps of energy also began to overflow from the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Origin.

With each operation, the Qi within Gu Fei’s body would surge significantly. The Purification Lotus Demon Flame had existed for an immeasurable time, and the energy it contained was naturally indescribable.

A huge fireball floated in mid-air. On the surface of the fireball, waves of fire continuously emerged, then spread out in a ring shape.

Although this absorption speed seemed slow, as the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame weakened and Gu Fei grew stronger, this speed would naturally increase.

“Rumble!”

As the Purification Lotus Demon Flame began to be refined, layers of energy dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky. The dark clouds swirled above the fireball, and the magma sea also churned with fierce waves.

Gu Fei did not pay attention to the changes in the outside world.

At this moment, he was completely immersed in the intense pleasure of his Cultivation progressing.

Vast energy, like liquid, spread like a flood through Gu Fei’s Meridians, flesh, and bones, bringing an indescribable comfort... A week passed in a flash.

Xiao Chen, who had learned the location of the Xiao Family descendants, finally found his way to Wutan City.

“My Xiao Clan has actually fallen to such a state...”

Looking at the descendants coming and going within the Xiao Family, Xiao Chen felt extremely bitter.

He recalled how glorious the Xiao Clan once was, and how magnificent Clan Chief Xiao Xuan had been.

Now, everything was gone.

“Alas, since the Xiao Family has declined, let’s not let these descendants know about the past...”

Xiao Chen watched over the Xiao Clan from above for a while, then quietly left without disturbing anyone. Rather than letting the Xiao Clan members know about their former glory and be powerless to do anything, it was better to let them live out this life peacefully.

“Perhaps, when I die, the Xiao Family will truly disappear from this world...”

A sigh lingered in the air... Outside the Demon Flame Space.

Zi Yan had been waiting here all along.

Even after a month, she had not left by half a step.

Although this time was shorter than other times, Zi Yan’s loneliness had increased exponentially.

Because, in the previous times, Gu Fei’s seclusion was at least by her side, visible and tangible, but this time, Zi Yan could only rely on the Dragon Seal to sense whether Gu Fei was alive or dead.

“Brother Gu Fei, you absolutely must not be in any trouble!” Zi Yan prayed in her heart.

Subsequently, Zi Yan still did not leave. During this period, Xiao Yi Xian also arrived and waited for Gu Fei with Zi Yan.

“My husband will be fine!”

“He prepared for this for a long time, so he must be very confident!”

Xiao Yi Xian forced a smile, wanting to comfort Zi Yan, but in reality, she was comforting herself.

With Xiao Yi Xian’s arrival, Zi Yan was finally not as bored as before.

The plain they were in was previously a range of towering mountains, which had melted into magma due to the descent of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame.

Now, because of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Seal, the magma desert here gradually solidified, finally transforming into this plain.

Normally, places ravaged by Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame would become exceptionally desolate, but when a team of adventurous mercenaries discovered a strange crystal filled with violent fire-attribute energy in the plain, this plain immediately became extremely lively.

These crystals, filled with violent fire-attribute energy, were called Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame stones.

Because within these crystals, there seemed to be faint traces of residual Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame.

Although this residual Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame had been diluted by thousands of times, it was an absolute treasure for those who Cultivated fire-attribute Dou Qi and for Alchemists.

As long as one could absorb the energy from these Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame stones, not only would one’s Dou Qi become stronger, but even the flames summoned by Alchemists would be much more powerful than before.

Therefore, the originally desolate plain had, in the past two years, attracted many forces to divide territories and share the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame stones.

Among them, the Hall of Souls’s influence was the most arrogant, claiming a large area for itself.

The other major forces in Central Plains dared not speak out in anger, none daring to clash with the Hall of Souls.

However, the arrogant Hall of Souls dared not step into the area where Zi Yan and the other person were.

That place was considered a forbidden zone, a forbidden zone that the Hall Master of the Soul Hall, Soul Mie Sheng, personally emphasized must absolutely not be approached.
