“You …” Xueying’s voice trembled a little.
The two entered the cubicle, but because of the limited space, they were only a foot apart, and, by now, Xueying was feeling very nervous.
“Brother Su, can you let me stand behind you?” Xueying had been using wizard power as a means of self-protection. Once they got to the critical stage, she would have to let go of all wizard power inside her. Due to the high temperature, her clothes would all be burned.
Su Yu looked at her suspiciously and his heart grew a little wary. “He wouldn’t have that particular hobby, would he?”
Alas, such an opportunity was rare. Su Yu did not want to miss it and said, “Okay, but be careful not to make any dramatic moves.”
Xueying hummed secretly, “I am afraid that you will be the one making the dramatic moves…”
Su Yu quickly entered a state of cultivation and removed the Divine Power that was shielding him. The hot flame immediately engulfed his entire body and burned off all his clothes.
In no time, Su Yu had turned into a burning man. However, the flame could not damage Su Yu’s physical body and only caused him to feel hotter.
Yet in Su Yu’s mind, he seemed to be completely burned, and he felt severe pain in his heart.
Layer upon layer of invisible things was violently consumed by the flames.
The pain was excruciating and Su Yu was almost unable to bear it.
However, because of this, Su Yu became more and more excited.
The greater the impurities in a soul, the more painful it would be to burn, and the quenching effect of the Heavenly Fire on the soul was profound.
Su Yu was silently rejoicing as he endured severe pain.
Simultaneously, Xueying behind him had also entered a state of cultivation. As soon as the wizard power was released, all her clothes burst into flames, and the remaining layer of wizard power that was on the surface was also burned away.
The handsome male disguise was now gone, revealing the milky body of a beautiful woman.
She had mature voluptuous breasts, a slender figure, and long legs. There was nothing to obstruct Su Yu’s view!
That pure and beautiful face was even more thrilling.
But, who was this woman, if not the Greatest Saint Lady?
She had always disguised herself as Xueying as she accompanied Su Yu.
As the Heavenly Fire entered her mind, the severe pain caused the Greatest Saint Lady’s body to tremble. She cried out in a shrill female voice! “Su Yu!”
Su Yu was busy refining his soul and could not hear her.
The Greatest Saint Lady’s face was flushed and her hands were hugging her chest as she tried to cover her voluptuous white breasts. She dared not look at Su Yu’s body. She closed her eyes and silently endured the pain caused by the Heavenly Fire.
Two weeks passed.
The flames of the Heavenly Fire Spirit Pool were now diminishing, and the pain in Su Yu’s mind was subsiding. Eventually, the pain stopped. This was a sign that the impurities in his soul had been entirely consumed by the flames.
Su Yu’s soul was serenely calm as if a man of two hundred pounds suddenly weighed only one hundred pounds.
The feeling of being reborn was indescribable.
In terms of his perception, he felt an immediate improvement and his mind had never been clearer.
For example, Su Yu suddenly figured out things that were previously obscured to him in the Legendary Style. He seemed to have gained a deeper and more profound understanding of everything.
Without deliberately trying to influence the Six Fundamental Laws of Mind Control, Su Yu touched the edge of the Upper Realm level! This was an unprecedented experience!
His eyes were lit up with excitement. Su Yu wanted more but unfortunately, the Heavenly Fire was limited. If he wanted to completely refine his soul, it would take ten years.
“I’m hungry!” Su Yu’s mind suddenly rang with a medley of sounds that unnerved him.
Tracing the source of the sound to one of the beads on his wrist, Su Yu looked surprised. He immediately released the beads and out rolled a white, fat, round boy.
He looked like he was around three or four years old. His eyes were very different from one another. One was ice blue and the other was fiery red.
He blinked his two big watery eyes and cried at Su Yu, insisting that he was hungry.
Seeing so many tears, Su Yu quickly fed the boy two drops of the blood of the Heaven-Defying Divine Warrior that he had refined.
He did not dare let the little boy cry. If he continued crying, his tears would flow and start to drip. One fire tear and one ice tear were enough to kill off the entire population of Sheng Capital!
Needless to say, this little boy was the heir of the Ice and Fire Divine Warriors, and the combination of both were visible in his eyes.
He had fallen into a deep sleep, but now he was very much awake.
Looking around, he discovered that Wang Qingchen had disappeared, and Xueying, who was in the same room as him, had already left the pool and gone ashore.
“Their impurities were far less than mine,” Su Yu said as he considered this for a while. “It’s fine, too, but it would have caused a lot of trouble if I’d exposed the heir of the Ice and Fire Divine Warrior to them.”
“I’m still hungry,” cried the fat boy. He greedily ate the two drops of blood and requested more.
Su Yu’s noticed that the boy appeared to have grown up. At first, he had looked like a three-year-old boy, but now he looked more like five or six years old. He had changed and his appetite had grown accordingly.
The blood of the Heaven-Defying Divine Warrior was certainly not enough for the boy.
Suddenly, the little boy looked down at the Spirit Lake under his feet and his eyes lit up. “Something delicious, there’s some delicious food down below!”
His left and right eyes each shot out a beam of energy. One of extreme ice and the other of extreme fire.
Su Yu was stunned. The Town Demon could only make a pin-sized hole on the meteorite. Now, two laser beams of light created holes the size of a fist!
Heavenly Fire spewed out from the inside the meteorite.
The little boy smiled. He laid down, opened his mouth wide, and started taking in big gulps from the lake.
He could only swallow twice and after that, he couldn’t swallow anymore because he was simply too full!
Su Yu’s eyes glowed with excitement. Why was he hesitating? He immediately found a huge vessel and started to fill it with Heavenly Fire.
Only when he managed to fill up enough for a hundred houses did Su Yu stop.
The Heavenly Fire inside the meteorite now no longer erupted but flowed out slowly. Had this not been the case, it would have overflowed from the Heavenly Lake and leaked everywhere.
Having obtained so much Heavenly Fire, Su Yu couldn’t help but touch the boy’s head in affection. “Good boy! Whenever you want to eat in the future, please let me know!”
The Heavenly Fire was in abundance, and food was no longer a problem.
Suddenly, Su Yu was nudged by something moving around his feet. Looking down, it turned out to be a black handbook that had flowed out of the meteorite with the Heavenly Fire.
“What is this?” Su Yu said to himself as he picked it up. He could just make out a few black words on the black handbook, which would be impossible for any ordinary person to read.
“Heavenly Book texts?” Su Yu was taken aback!
The inscriptions on it were the texts from the heavenly book!
An essence of invisible Strength of Rules lingered in the handwriting.
He opened the handbook and saw that it was full of dense scriptures, and more than 90 percent of them were unknown to Su Yu!
He was familiar with about ten percent of Heavenly Books but there was still about ninety percent that he didn’t know about. This meant that the texts in this handbook had an extremely wide range. It was probably written by someone remarkable who had access to all of the Heavenly Books.
What made Su Yu even more intrigued was that writing Heavenly Book texts might not be such a big deal. Su Yu might also write Heavenly Book texts himself.
However, every text, within this black handbook, actually carried the Strength of Rules!
This was something Su Yu could not do.
The writer had integrated the Strength of Rules into the book. What kind of God was he? One of the Nine Emperors of God’s Land perhaps?
Maybe more than that! The Nine Emperors of God’s Land wrote on tablets of stone. There was no Strength of Rules in their heavenly scripts.
The entity that wrote the black handbook was most likely something much more terrible.
As he considered this, Su Yu suddenly felt the black handbook in his hand getting heavier.
He became even more curious and flipped through it once more.
Su Yu recognized some of the text on the cover. The original words were ‘Daoyuan invitation …’
“What is Daoyuan?” Su Yu wondered.
Reading through the handbook, Su Yu recognized only seven or eight words, only three of which he was confident.
“True Fire Path Leader?” Su Yu couldn’t understand the terms mentioned in it.
“Daoyuan, Path Leader, what the hell were those? Are they creatures that once existed in the Star River Realm?” Su Yu said to himself.
Su Yu was both surprised and puzzled. Suddenly the mood changed as someone approached.
Su Yu put away the black handbook and said to the little boy, “Little Icy Fire, there are a lot of bad people outside. You will need to hide here and I will let you out when it is safe, ok?”
The little boy sucked on his thumb and said cutely, “Who is Little Icy Fire?”
“That’s your new name.”
The little boy’s eyes lit up. He smiled and said, “Well, I think someone may have called me that before. Fine, then I’ll be called Little Icy Fire.”
Su Yu took out a space bead and Little Icy Fire obediently got into it.
Suddenly, out of the space fluctuations, Xueying’s figure flashed past. She opened her eyes, and said joyfully, “You finally woke up!”
“Sorry to keep you waiting,” Su Yu said. “I was sleeping…”
Xueying smiled bitterly, “We were worried about you.”
On hearing this, Su Yu said, “Oh? Is it about something that has happened outside?”
“Do you remember two weeks ago, the Wang Clan Master, Mistress of the Greatest Saint Lady Temple, and the Lord of the Saint Temple all sent a team out to search for news?” Xueying asked.
“Of course I remember. What has happened to Fan Capital? Has the situation deteriorated?” Su Yu said, examining Xueying’s complexion.
Xueying smiled bitterly, “It’s not just bad, it is terrible! Three teams of scouts were sent out, each of which comprised of Level Three creatures! However, none of them have returned with news!”
“What?” Even Su Yu was surprised!
Amongst the three teams, each one was comprised of three Level Three Realm old monsters.
Not only were they strong, experienced, cautious, and alert, but they were also specially selected scouts of the highest caliber.
Alas, until now, no one had returned. Not even one piece of information had been delivered!
They must have met some kind of accident somewhere along the line.
Su Yu was horrified and tried to imagine what had gone wrong.
“If one or two did not make it back, it was understandable, but there were nine of them. Surely one of them at least would have escaped.”
None of them did and they couldn’t even call for help. There could only be one explanation. Someone had killed them and made the Capital lose some of their best people!
There were only four such characters within the Ancient Gods Realm!
The most likely culprit was the most terrible and merciless Nitian Guyun!
Other than him, no one would be capable of killing nine old monsters at Level Three Realm!
Su Yu’s eyes were calm. “Let’s go up and see how they deal with it,” he said. The re-appearance of Nitian Guyun was bound to happen sooner or later. However, he had appeared much earlier than Su Yu had expected.
In Su Yu’s opinion, it would only be after the Moonview Sect Leader appeared, that Nitian Guyun would strike.
In appearing now, was it not a challenge to the Moonview Sect Leader?
