485: Obtain Warframe

Immediately, Lu Xingchen reached out his hand toward Dongfang Yuqing and Yun Li.

The other four immediately understood. The five of them held hands, spread their Dou Qi Wings together, and flew toward the spiritual power vortex above their heads.

A sense of weightlessness washed over them. When the scenery around them became clear again, the five had arrived at the deepest part of the Skeleton Empire.

Beneath their feet was flat ground, and ahead lay a long corridor. The corridor was burning with blue flames, just like the ones on those flaming skeletons.

At the end of the corridor was a throne, and on the throne sat a set of armor. This must be the legendary dark armor!

The Opportunity was right before their eyes, but no one acted rashly.

Who knew if there were other traps ahead?

Just then, that Elder from the Chixiao Sect appeared again and came before the group.

"Unexpected, truly unexpected! You actually managed to break through the death gate! Although I do not know how you did it, I can say that all five of you possess the Potential of a Saint!"

Lu Xingchen cupped his hands in a salute toward him.

"It was merely luck. Senior, since we have already passed the death gate, can we obtain the dark armor now?"

The Elder Skeleton shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "Not yet. There is one final trial remaining."

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen frowned, but still said in a deep voice, "Please, Senior, present the trial!"

The Elder Skeleton nodded slightly.

"Not arrogant in victory, not discouraged in defeat—you have good Heart-Nature, kid. This final trial is the flame corridor before you. As long as you can walk through this flame corridor, you may make one request to the Dark Saint. The Soul Imprint he left behind will fulfill it!"

"Of course, if your strength is insufficient and you wish to give up, just say 'I admit defeat,' and this old man will fish you out."

After saying this, the Elder Skeleton stepped aside and said no more.

Lu Xingchen frowned and said in a deep voice, "The quality of these blue flames is not inferior to the candle dragon flame, and no one knows how much Qi the Dark Saint left behind to fuel it. If we enter rashly, we may suffer irreversible damage!"

Dongfang Yuqing chuckled, "Let me do it! I possess 'Killing, Breaking, Plundering.' No matter how severe my injuries are, it will not affect my combat effectiveness. As long as these blue flames do not turn me into ashes, I can come out safely."

"It is just that I will have to rely on Brother Xingchen's phoenix nirvana pill then!"

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly, "Brother Dongfang is indeed the most suitable candidate!"

Dongfang Yuqing smiled and said, "Let us rest for a day first. I need to wait for the time limit of the Evil Soul Transformation and 'Killing, Breaking, Plundering' to pass before I go to brave that flame corridor!"

"Alright!"

Immediately, the five sat cross-legged on the ground to recover their state.

After a day, everyone's combat power had recovered to its Peak.

Dongfang Yuqing stood up and chuckled, "Everyone, I am going in first!"

Lu Xingchen patted him on the shoulder.

"Brother Dongfang, be careful!"

Immediately, Dongfang Yuqing activated the "Evil Soul Transformation" and "Killing, Breaking, Plundering" and rushed into the flame corridor.

The terrifying blue flames immediately surged toward him, scorching his body.

Lu Xingchen immediately frowned tightly.

The power of these blue flames was extremely great; he did not think he could block them.

The decision not to go first was the correct one.

Now, they could only see if Dongfang Yuqing could rely on "Killing, Breaking, Plundering" to hold out until the end of the flame corridor!

Despite having the Senluo Ghost Fire protecting his body, Dongfang Yuqing still felt bone-eroding pain.

But he did not give up easily; instead, he gritted his teeth and walked toward the finish line step by step.

The flame corridor was only one hundred meters long, but to Dongfang Yuqing, it felt like a chasm.

After a long minute, he finally reached the end, immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, and knelt on one knee.

Lu Xingchen hurriedly flew toward him and looked at his body.

The clothes on Dongfang Yuqing's body had long been burned away, his body was charred black, and there was not a single piece of good flesh left.

If it had been anyone else, they would have died long ago, but he had relied on the power of "Killing, Breaking, Plundering" to forcefully endure it.

Lu Xingchen hurriedly handed him a phoenix nirvana pill. He took the Medicinal Pill, and his body regained vitality.

Immediately, a cloud of black mist appeared.

Three seconds later, the black mist dissipated, and Dongfang Yuqing had already changed into a clean set of clothes.

Just then, a voice rang in everyone's ears.

"Courageous young man, state your wish!"

Hearing this, a rich look of joy appeared on the faces of the five.

The Legacy left by the Dark Saint had finally been obtained by them!

The Elder Skeleton also let out an exclamation.

"To actually be able to forcefully endure the Spirit-Burning Fire, young man, you are truly impressive!"

Just then, Dongfang Yuqing said something shocking.

"I want the Souls in the Skeleton Empire to be liberated and enter the Reincarnation again."

The Dark Saint's Soul Imprint spoke again: "Simple. Regardless, as long as someone passes the test, I will release the Souls here. Obtaining the dark armor and releasing the Souls are things that can be achieved together."

As the voice fell, the Restriction on the Elder Skeleton was lifted. The skeleton scattered all over the ground, and his Soul detached, turning into spots of light filling the sky and gradually dissipating.

Before leaving, the Elder Skeleton said in confusion: "Young man, are you not cherishing this Opportunity too little? What if the Dark Saint did not give you the dark armor? Wouldn't you have worked for nothing?"

Dongfang Yuqing chuckled, "Compared to a lifeless set of armor, I care more about the thousands of Souls in this Skeleton Empire!"

The Soul entity sighed softly.

"Thank you! Little friend from the Evil Soul Sect, your conduct is much better than those so-called prestigious sects."

After saying this, he completely disappeared between heaven and earth.

The previous spiritual power vortex appeared again, sucking the four—Lu Xingchen and the others—in, leaving only Dongfang Yuqing behind.

A white light flashed before their eyes, and the four appeared at the stone gate of the entrance.

Lu Xingchen coughed lightly and said in a deep voice, "It seems Brother Dongfang is accepting the Legacy of the Dark Saint. We should also leave and go search for other Opportunities!"

Lu Yu nodded slightly and said softly, "This dark armor should rightfully belong to Dongfang Yuqing. His willpower is too tenacious; he will surely accomplish great things in the future!"

"But what surprised me even more is that the first thing he thought of after passing the test was to liberate the imprisoned Souls, rather than obtaining the dark armor. This kind of Heart-Nature is already stronger than too many prestigious sects; I, Lu Yu, am ashamed of my inferiority."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Alright, it is time for us to part ways. I cannot protect you for a whole year."

"Before leaving, I have two things to entrust to Saint Lu Yu!"

Lu Yu nodded slightly and said softly, "Brother Lu, please speak!"

"First, temporarily conceal my identity as the War God. After the Martial Arts Convention ends, I will reveal it myself."

"Second, collect information related to the Evil Soul Sect. When the Righteous Path Alliance sends troops to encircle and suppress the Evil Soul Sect, notify me."

Hearing this, Lu Yu was shocked in his heart.

"Brother Lu, as the Human Race War God, I am afraid it is not very good to publicly help the Evil Soul Sect, right?"
