155: Chapter 155 Endless Fire Domain

"Mm-hmm, then I'll take my leave first." Gu Na released her Energy Wings and soon disappeared from sight.

Chu Yaoyao set off immediately after, as did Tao Mumu and Tao Shuishui, each heading their separate ways.

Six hours later.

"Is that the Endless Fire Domain up ahead? What happened to the secret realm? It's not one at all..." Mu Cheng stared blankly at the scene before him.

Suddenly, Little Demon emerged. Her appearance had completely changed into a small pixie doll about half a meter tall.

"Master, this is indeed the Endless Fire Domain. As for it not being a secret realm, it never was one to begin with," Little Demon replied.

Mu Cheng looked at Little Demon and asked in shock, "Have you broken through to the Ninth Order?"

"Mm-hmm, thanks to the help of the Demon Boss," Little Demon nodded and replied.

"Alright then! Next, let's brave this Endless Fire Domain." Mu Cheng dismounted from Dun Dun's back.

At the same time, Dun Dun reverted to its original form and was tossed into the consciousness space by Mu Cheng.

"It's useless for you to be outside anyway, so just stay in the consciousness space!"

Like Little Demon, they had all signed blood covenants with Mu Cheng, so entering the consciousness space was no problem at all.

The Endless Fire Domain was actually a bottomless tunnel. It wasn't very large, about fifty meters wide.

Just standing in this tunnel made one feel... a surge of scorching energy gushing toward them.

Despite this, Mu Cheng was not affected at all; in fact, he felt quite cool.

"Master, I can't take this... I must return to the consciousness space. The Demon Boss needs to restore his soul. If there's an emergency, I will give it my all."

After saying that, Little Demon returned to the consciousness space...

Mu Cheng looked bewildered. "What's... what's the situation? Is there something wrong with this place?"

"Mm-hmm, Master can check the high-tech bracelet to see what the temperature is here," Little Demon's voice came again.

"Is this... is it really two hundred and sixty degrees?" Mu Cheng looked at it in utter disbelief, his face full of skepticism.

With the temperature here at two hundred and sixty degrees, he was perfectly fine? What kind of logic was this?

But then again, it made sense; it was normal for Little Demon to be unable to withstand it. Never mind her, even a Ninth Order Peak powerhouse...

...would probably be the same!

As Mu Cheng went deeper, the tunnel became larger and larger... eventually becoming a path with magma on both sides.

Meanwhile, in the Goddess of Life's secret realm.

"Damn it, I have to find a way to get the energy source in the secret realm." Gu Na had no choice but to retreat.

Inside this secret realm was a lush green forest. The trees weren't very tall, only about ten meters or so.

The secret realm itself wasn't very large. In the center... was an energy source, though its specific grade was unknown.

"There's no other way; I can only cut down all the trees." Gu Na didn't actually want to do this.

But unfortunately, these remnant soul were incredibly cunning; as soon as they were attacked, they would immediately dive into the trees.

No matter what kind of attack Gu Na used, they were like unkillable cockroaches, appearing in an endless stream.

"Forget it... let's try this." Gu Na suddenly changed her mind and shouted loudly.

"You'd better step aside, or I'll have to cut down the trees!"

All things have spirits, and these remnant soul indeed understood her. They quickly vanished without a trace.

"This... whatever, I won't worry about it. I'll just absorb and refine it first." Gu Na didn't overthink it.

She directly took the energy source and began to absorb and refine it...

The Lake of Wood and Water.

Tao Mumu and Tao Shuishui also successfully obtained the energy sources of their respective attributes.

"Sister, isn't this too smooth? It was that easy to get? I'm not dreaming, am I?" Tao Shuishui was very confused.

Tao Mumu: "I think it's not just us. Probably every secret realm is like this, where everyone can easily find the opportunity to break through to the Ninth Order."

One or two people wouldn't be much, but this number... there were at least five thousand people. If everyone broke through to the Ninth Order...

...one could only imagine how terrifying that would be.

"Since we have it, let's break through to the Ninth Order first!" Tao Shuishui stopped overthinking and began to absorb and refine the energy source.

This energy source was the same; it had no energy fluctuations and looked very ordinary.

However, once absorbed and refined, it contained infinite energy.

The Double-Faced Demon God's secret realm.

"Is this the inheritance of the Double-Faced Demon God? I wonder how Sister Yue Chan is doing... Having the Green Lotus Sword Body, what exactly is her relationship with the Chu family?"

Chu Yaoyao had tried to contact her multiple times but couldn't get through, and she was indeed very worried about Yue Chan's safety.

But she knew Yue Chan's strength better than anyone; even if she encountered danger, she could still protect herself even if she couldn't win.

Unable to dwell on it too much... she also began to absorb and refine the Double-Faced Demon God's inheritance.

Blue-White Star, Mount Everest.

"Lingling, did you guys go a bit too far this time?" Peppa asked quite doubtfully.

Xia Lingling was still keeping the Heavenly Dao trapped at the moment. She smiled slightly and asked,

"I say, Little Piglet, are you getting cold feet? You're a dignified Devouring Beast, after all. Can you not be so cowardly?"

"Exactly, Little Piglet, you're way too cowardly. Look at Lingling... she can catch the Heavenly Dao and play with it whenever she wants." The Nine-Winged Angel Man beside them also chimed in with some banter.

Besides him, there was also an old man with his back turned to them, standing motionless as he spoke.

"Since you've already decided, then why have an old fossil like me open the secret realm? Don't think that just because Ninth Order experts are everywhere, you can just pick out a new generation of Guardian Gods."

"You old fossil, can you stop being so pessimistic? So what if there's no Guardian God? Are you saying you guys are useless?" Xia Lingling got angry upon hearing this.

Whether it works or not... we always need to try, right? How will we know if we don't try?

"Fine, fine, fine. Go and get prepared! Once the seal on the Ancient Battlefield is lifted, I'll give you seven days at most." The old man clearly agreed.

Peppa had nothing more to say. "Alright, alright, since I'm just a weakling, I'll take this gamble with you guys!"

"Mm-hmm, go and prepare. The last position of the Four-Star Spirit Gathering Array can only rely on the Lin Family and Sister Yunzi's group." After saying that, Xia Lingling vanished without a trace.

"I'm bored anyway, so I'll go with Lingling!" Peppa said... and also vanished without a trace.

The Nine-Winged Angel Man said, "Old fossil, you'd better hold on... don't go embarrassing yourself."

After the banter... he also disappeared.

Endless Fire Domain.

"Wait... something's not right here." Mu Cheng finally noticed something was off.

There was only one path in this place, with magma on both sides, and there was no telling when it would end.

"Don't worry, Master. It's quite normal here. Don't be so paranoid," Little Demon's voice suddenly came through.

Having broken through to the Ninth Order, her perception range was now five kilometers, yet she hadn't discovered any anomalies.

"Could this be another setup?" Mu Cheng suddenly expressed serious doubt.

The Endless Fire Domain sounded extremely dangerous by name, but in the end, it was nothing to Mu Cheng. How could he not be suspicious?
