"This is it."
"The lotus heart still retains warmth. As long as I activate it, it can burn for at least another ten thousand years."
Ye Chen locked his gaze on the lotus heart, and with a flick of his hand, the Eternal Night Burning Flame quietly began to ignite.
A wisp of dark red flame slowly emerged, the flame shooting straight towards the lotus heart.
Soon, under the impact of the domineering fire elemental power, those dark lotus hearts were gradually burned red, lit up, and ignited.
Crimson flames burst forth from the heart of the lotus.
With a hum, the Lotus Heart Flame was fully activated, and crimson flames swept in all directions, rising up the stone walls of the Pill Tower.
The entire Tai Zhen Dan Pagoda trembled, and the ancient patterns on its body were activated one by one, emitting a dazzling red light.
Outside the forbidden zone, Murong Jin and Elder Ye Liao were intently watching the celestial display. When they saw the lotus heart fire seed ignite at the bottom of the Pill Tower and the entire Pill Tower glow, their eyes lit up and they showed joy.
"It's done! The spark has been activated!"
Elder Ye Liao exclaimed joyfully.
Murong Jin nodded and said, "The Lord of Reincarnation truly lives up to his name."
At this moment, Ye Chen also felt that after the Crimson Lotus Source Fire was activated, it resonated with the flame aura in the earth veins. All the fire-attribute spiritual energy in the Burning Heaven Ruins where the Burning Heaven Ancient Sacred Sect was located was also resonating with the Crimson Lotus Source Fire.
A surging aura of flames filled the entire Tai Zhen Pill Tower. Ye Chen witnessed a strange scene: the air inside the Tai Zhen Pill Tower was actually being refined into pills, which fell down one by one.
This scene was truly astonishing.
No medicinal herbs are needed; just air and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can be refined into pills by the Tai Zhen Pill Tower!
This Tai Zhen Dan Tower must be some kind of top-tier magic treasure.
The Red Lotus Source Fire is the seed of fire.
"It's so hot... I have to leave as soon as possible."
Ye Chen felt the surrounding temperature soaring. Although he had the Eternal Night Flame in his hand and was not afraid of high temperatures, the abyss within his body was something he could not touch.
At this moment, Ye Chen released his divine sense and saw that the Tai Zhen Pill Tower was radiating out bursts of flames, burning large swaths of chaotic energy in the forbidden zone into nothingness.
Before long, the chaotic aura in this place will be eliminated.
But at that moment, Ye Chen heard a loud rumbling sound from the outside world, and a powerful pressure and will locked onto him from afar.
Elder Ye Liao and Murong Jin outside also sensed something was wrong. Their expressions froze, and a look of disbelief and horror flashed in their eyes.
At the top of the Tai Zhen Pill Tower, the sky, which had been shrouded in chaotic mist, was suddenly torn apart by an extremely powerful fire attribute aura. Golden and red rays of light shot into the sky, dyeing the entire horizon red, and scorching waves of air swept across the entire forbidden zone.
An overwhelming imperial might, domineering and capable of scorching all ages, raged wildly, making it difficult for Murong Jin and Elder Ye Liao to breathe, and causing their bodies to tremble.
"The sect leader... the sect leader has emerged from seclusion..."
Elder Ye Liao managed to utter a few words, a tremor running through him, "The Sect Leader actually emerged from seclusion at this time?"
Murong Jin's face also turned slightly pale as he looked up.
At the top of the Pill Tower, a figure dressed in a red robe with gold patterns slowly emerged. His face was majestic, his hair flowed like flames, and he was surrounded by blazing golden-red imperial fire. His eyes were like two blazing suns, and his gaze coldly looked down. Wherever he passed, the space was scorched and distorted.
It was the leader of the Ancient Saint Cult of Burning Heaven, whose name was:
Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor!
The gaze of the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor pierced through the forbidden zone, penetrated the stone wall of the Pill Tower, and precisely locked onto Ye Chen at the bottom of the Pill Tower, a blazing light flashing in his eyes:
"Eternal Night Burning Fire... and so many divine powers! I never imagined that after so many years of seclusion, such an astonishing opportunity would be delivered to my doorstep!"
Before he finished speaking, the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor raised his hand and waved it. Countless golden-red imperial flames burst forth from his fingertips, transforming into strands of fire that spread down along the patterns of the Pill Tower, instantly entangling the entire Tai Zhen Pill Tower.
At the bottom of the Pill Tower, Ye Chen felt a powerful imperial might envelop his entire body. His aura was instantly suppressed, magma boiled, and flames roared. He was instantly engulfed in flames.
"Who?!"
Ye Chen felt a chill run down his spine. Under the sweep of his divine sense, he saw the figure in the golden-patterned red robe and instantly realized that this was the leader of the Burning Heaven Ancient Saint Sect.
With his keen insight, he already knew the other party's name: the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor!
"Lord of Reincarnation, rest in peace!"
"I will refine you into the most precious elixir in the world, and your death will not have been in vain."
The voice of the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor resounded throughout the entire Pill Tower like a great bell, carrying a strong and domineering tone.
Strands of flame were released wildly from his hands and poured into the Pill Tower.
He actually used the Pill Tower as a furnace to refine Ye Chen into a pill!
Ye Chen was engulfed in flames, feeling the boundless flames burning him, frantically drilling into his body through his pores. Even the Eternal Night Burning Fire was stirred up, with flames burning inside and out, causing terrifying burning pain. His flesh was crackling as it burned, and he was in real danger of being refined into a pill.
Ye Chen's face darkened. He wanted to resist, but his divine power was suppressed by the blazing flames and imperial might of the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor, making it difficult for him to exert his power.
The ancient emperor of the blazing sun was at the peak of the ninth level of the Heavenly Dao Realm, but had not yet entered the Heavenly Pillar Realm.
However, his mastery of the laws far surpasses that of Ye Chen.
Ye Chen sensed the aura of the Taiyi Realm, the aura of the Tree of Life Realm, and the life force of the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor, which completely overwhelmed him, making it difficult for him to move.
"Struggling is useless."
The Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor gave a curt reply, raised his hand, and struck out with a palm towards the Pill Tower. The golden-red Emperor Fire palm print crashed down.
"Tai Zhen Pill Tower, alchemy array, activate!"
As he finished speaking, the patterns on the Tai Zhen Pill Tower lit up wildly, and the refining power exploded to its limit.
Ye Chen gritted his teeth, feeling as if his whole body was burning. Starlight flickered in his hand, and he was ready to sacrifice the Starry Sky Dao Book and fight desperately.
Outside the restricted area, both Murong Jin and Elder Ye Liao were horrified.
Murong Jin considered killing Ye Chen, but the cost was too high, and he didn't dare to make the decision.
He never expected that the Ancient Emperor of Blazing Sun would personally emerge from seclusion to refine Ye Chen into a pill.
Elder Ye Liao hurriedly said, "Master, you mustn't!"
"The Lord of Reincarnation has devoured the Abyss. If we were to refine him, the Abyss would explode, causing catastrophe to the world, and our sect would also be in danger of destruction!"
The Ancient Emperor of Blazing Sun smiled and said, "It's alright, it's just the abyss."
"I will bear this!"
"The Lord of Reincarnation forged and refined all laws, thus becoming one with the power to control all laws. What does the abyss matter? I will suppress it all!"
Madness was already showing on the face of the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor.
scoff-
Just then, an extremely sharp sword aura suddenly cleaved down from the sky.
The sword energy roared, heading straight for the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor.
The sky was torn apart, and the imperial might and radiant light emanating from the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor were instantly cleaved open.
"Who?"
The Fiery Sun Ancient Emperor's brows furrowed sharply, and flames around his body surged wildly. He raised his hand and unleashed a fiery palm that stretched ten thousand feet, forcefully blocking the sudden sword energy.
With a deafening roar, shockwaves swept in all directions, and the Tai Zhen Dan Tower trembled violently.
The magma at the bottom of the tower was gushing out wildly.
The blazing sun-like gaze of the Ancient Emperor Chiyang swept towards the direction from which the sword energy was coming.
He was a powerful expert at the peak of the ninth level of the Heavenly Dao Realm, and his Law Realm had even reached the Tree of Life Realm. In this Origin World, there wouldn't be many people who would dare to provoke him so rashly.
In the void, a figure in white robes descended swiftly, his clothes fluttering, surrounded by intense divine light, with a handsome face and sharp, sword-like eyes.
It is Ren Feifan!
Ren Feifan exuded a powerful aura, carrying a calm and restrained pressure.
"I am the Lord of Destruction, how dare you touch my people?"
Ren Feifan's gaze was sharp, and his body exuded a surging aura of destruction.
He inherited Shiva's divine power of destruction, and although he has not yet attained enlightenment, he still holds many truths of destruction.
A giant tree emerged from behind him, unleashing boundless destructive energy that supported the sky, turning it into darkness, with destructive lightning surging and exploding.
Upon seeing this, the ancient emperor of the Blazing Sun's expression immediately changed.
That giant tree was the Tree of Life!
Only those who have mastered the laws of the Tree of Life can manifest the grand spectacle of the Tree of Life.
This is a symbol of overwhelming vitality.
The Ancient Emperor of Blazing Sun had never imagined that Ren Feifan had reached such a level.
A flicker of apprehension crossed his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by greed and fury.
"So it is you, stranger! Your future self is already in the Tomb of Gods, destined to perish. Yet today you dare to trespass on the territory of my Burning Heaven Ancient Saint Sect and interfere in my affairs. You are courting death!"
The ancient emperor of the Blazing Sun's voice was so powerful that it shook the heavens and earth.
He knew Ren Feifan; Ren Feifan was the protector of reincarnation and the future guardian of the Great Demon Lord.
The people at the Divine Tomb had already set their sights on Ren Feifan.
As far as the Ancient Emperor Chiyang knew, Ren Feifan's future incarnation had already been imprisoned in the Divine Tomb and was being burned by karmic fire. It wouldn't be long before he was reduced to ashes.
Once the future body perishes, Ren Feifan's present body will also perish and die a tragic death.
"The Blazing Sun Tree!"
With a roar, the Ancient Emperor of Blazing Sun manifested a colossal tree behind him, its leaves as brilliant and radiant as the blazing sun, bursting with golden light.
On the territory of the Burning Heaven Ruins, the life force he exuded was even stronger than Ren Feifan's. His blazing divine energy soared into the sky, crushing large swaths of destructive lightning.
With a wave of his hand, the ancient emperor Chiyang unleashed a spectacular display of meteors and meteorites raining down from the sky.
Ren Feifan did not linger in the fight. He leaped back and slashed at the Taizhen Pill Tower with his sword.
At the bottom of the Pill Tower, Ye Chen was being suppressed by the alchemy array. His whole body was burning, his skin and flesh were charred black, and the abyssal aura within his body was surging wildly, with the possibility of exploding at any moment.
Ren Feifan's sword strike cleaved a crack in the restrictions of the Pill Tower and the suppression of the alchemy array.
Ye Chen felt a surge of relief, and the pressure immediately lessened. He first put away the Red Lotus Origin Fire, then transformed into a stream of light and emerged from the Tai Zhen Pill Tower to reunite with Ren Feifan.
"Senior Ren!"
Ye Chen was overjoyed to be reunited with his family after so long.
Ren Feifan glanced at Ye Chen and, seeing his burns all over his body, said, "Let's go!"
After saying that, Ren Feifan swung his sword to destroy the falling meteors, then grabbed Ye Chen's arm, and with a swift movement, transformed into a white light, speeding away from the Burning Heaven Ancient Holy Sect.
The Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor saw the Tai Zhen Pill Tower suddenly dim, realizing that Ye Chen had taken away the Red Lotus Source Fire. He flew into a rage and roared at the two of them:
"Get back here right now!"
The Crimson Lotus Origin Flame was the core of the Tai Zhen Pill Tower, and was extremely precious. Now that Ye Chen had taken it away, he felt extremely heartbroken.
He originally intended to refine Ye Chen into a pill, but unexpectedly, his attempt backfired, and he lost the Red Lotus Source Fire instead.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen and Ren Feifan disappeared into the horizon.
"Bastard!"
The enraged Ancient Emperor of Blazing Sun gave chase at breakneck speed, chanting loudly as he did so:
"Burn your mangled body, in the blazing holy fire. What joy is there in living, what sorrow in dying?"
"Past and future, all turn to dust. Ups and downs, gatherings and separations, all the vicissitudes of life are but a torch."
The sound carried far and wide, like a chant or a curse.
Ren Feifan, who was fleeing, suddenly slowed down.
Murong Jin and Elder Ye Liao exchanged glances. Seeing that the Ancient Emperor of Blazing Sun had chased after them, the two hurriedly followed.
At this moment, Ren Feifan was pulling Ye Chen along, speeding all the way, but when he heard the chanting of the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor, he groaned and his steps became sluggish.
"Senior Ren, how are you?"
Ye Chen was startled to see this, as Ren Feifan's face flushed red, as if he had been cursed by some kind of heaven-burning curse.
"It is the burning of the karmic fire of the God's Tomb."
Ren Feifan glanced back at the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor, his facial muscles twitching slightly.
Ye Chen instantly understood that the chant of the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor must be a spell that could activate the karmic fire of the Divine Tomb.
The karmic fire of the Divine Tomb did not directly burn Ren Feifan, but it burned his future self, and his present self will also be affected.
"I'll kill him!"
Ye Chen saw that he had left the Burning Heaven Ruins and arrived in the outer void. This was not the territory of the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor, who did not have the advantage of favorable timing and terrestrial veins.
If it really comes down to a fight, Ye Chen isn't entirely without a chance of victory.
wow-
As the Starry Sky Dao Book unfolded, a vast starry sky appeared, and countless starlight poured into Ye Chen's body, rapidly healing the injuries he had sustained from being burned in the Tai Zhen Pill Tower.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen's injuries were completely healed, and starlight burst forth from his body, even radiating the brilliance of a saint and the light of his original aspiration.
Ye Chen had long ago made a vow and established his original aspiration to protect those around him.
When he puts his original aspirations into practice, his strength will also increase.
Ren Feifan was stunned. He felt that Ye Chen had suddenly become as high as heaven and earth, as big as the sun and moon, with divine might and a saintly backbone supporting the heavens and the stars.
Ye Chen held the Heavenly Emperor Divine Sword at an angle. Now it wasn't Ren Feifan protecting him; it was Ye Chen protecting Ren Feifan.
But when Ren Feifan saw the faint black aura swirling on Ye Chen's calm and composed face, he couldn't help but feel a chill and said:
"No, you bear the weight of the abyss on your shoulders; you cannot be too reckless."
He could see that Ye Chen was using the Dao of the Sage and the Dao of the Starry Sky to suppress the churning abyss.
But the abyss is terrifying; if it gets out of control, it will completely devour Ye Chen!
"You go first, I'll cover your retreat."
Seeing that the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor was about to catch up, Ren Feifan shielded Ye Chen behind him and urged him to leave.
“The enemy is not just the Ancient Emperor of Blazing Sun. If you unleash your full power, you will probably attract even more enemies.”
"Hmm... I wonder if the aura of the Divine Tomb was attracted by you, or by me, or by the Scorching Sun Ancient Emperor?"
Ren Feifan frowned again. He saw the aura of the Chaotic Corpse Burial surging in the sky, indicating that a powerful figure from the Divine Tomb was about to attack.
Ye Chen immediately sensed something was wrong. If it were only the Blazing Sun Ancient Emperor, he could boldly fight him.
However, his full power exposed the secret, which would inevitably attract more enemies.
He fell silent. Was retreating the only option?
"Don't worry about winning or losing for now, just go."
"It is now impossible to obtain the Primordial Chaos Qi from the Burning Heaven Ancient Holy Sect."
"However, although the Primordial Chaos Qi is rare, it is not only possessed by the Burning Heaven Ancient Saint Sect."
“Go to the Moon District of the Nine Luminaries Burning Star Sea. There is a Chaos Moon Tree there, which still retains a lot of Chaos Mother Qi,” Ren Feifan said.
