Chapter 863: Chapter 850: The Third Martial Arts Inheritance Test?
“The fourth martial artist to set foot in this Fire Spirit Pure Land? So, I’m the fourth to pass the second trial? What about the three before , did they leave?”
This was Ye Zhen’s first question after hearing the words of the fla spirit body before him. As for the fla spirit body itself, Ye Zhen was not the slightest bit surprised.
This fla spirit body looked very much like the Divine Soul Spirit Shadow Ye Zhen encountered in the first trial, presumably another Divine Soul Spirit Shadow left by the Earth Core Fire Commander.
However, since the spirit body here was condensed from various types of fire, the fla spirit body resembling the Earth Core Fire Commander had an aura that felt extrely powerful.
“The three before?”
Upon hearing this, the fla spirit body of the Earth Core Fire Commander gestured towards Ye Zhen with its lips, “There, look!”
Following the direction indicated by the fla spirit body’s lips, Ye Zhen’s pupils suddenly contracted!
Ashes!
This was the only debris within this so-called Fire Spirit Pure Land, aside from the flas.
Moreover, there were three piles of black and white intermingled ashes!
With Ye Zhen’s keen eyesight, he instantly recognized these as cremated remains!
This was ash ford from human bodies being incinerated in a short period, the black part being ashes of flesh and blood, the white part being bone ash.
In other words, the three testers who arrived here before had all died!
And within this Fire Spirit Pure Land, apart from this fla spirit body, there seed to be no threat. In an instant, Ye Zhen’s face changed drastically, “Here… did you kill all three of them?”
The fla spirit body did not deny it, but replied in a calm voice, “They didn’t pass the final trial, and failed. There’s only death!”
Before Ye Zhen could respond, the fla spirit body continued, “What is it? Do you find cruel?”
“Actually, this was their chosen path! I’ve road the world for a thousand years, and I do not consider myself a good person, but neither am I a bad one. I’ve done things against my conscience, but I’ve never spilled innocent blood.
However, selecting a Martial Arts Inheritor within this Ground Fire Heart Palace is my life’s last and most important wish. The first trial was easy to speak of, but in the third trial, there are only two outcos: pass the test and receive my Martial Arts Inheritance, or die!”
The mont the last word ‘die’ was uttered, Ye Zhen’s Soul Sea, shielded by the four-colored Innate Soul Light, shuddered inexplicably, and an unprecedented chill enveloped Ye Zhen’s entire body in an instant.
This made Ye Zhen imdiately realize a fact, that despite the fla spirit body housing only the weakest remnant soul left by the Earth Core Fire Commander before he perished,
It was still much stronger than Ye Zhen!
“In that case, may I ask, senior, what is the trial of the third test?”
The saying “one is the knife, the other is the fish” precisely described Ye Zhen’s situation; Ye Zhen’s Sword Heart Enlightennt could very clearly sense the imnse power of the Fire Spirit Pure Land before him.
Aside from the extrely pure Fire Spirit Power, and those three piles of ashes, within the whole space, there wasn’t a single impurity, only Fire Spirit Power.
This was Ye Zhen’s first ti encountering such a purely powerful space; Ye Zhen’s Sword Heart Enlightennt couldn’t even detect any crevice or exit in the Fire Spirit Pure Land.
As for breaking through, don’t even think about it.
Inside this Fire Spirit Pure Land, Ye Zhen felt like an ordinary man gazing at the sky; could a re mortal break the sky?
Impossible!
In other words, this Fire Spirit Pure Land before him was entirely a sealed space, and it seed like only the fla spirit body of the Earth Core Fire Commander could control entry and exit.
The only thing Ye Zhen could do was do everything possible to pass the trial!
This was most important!
“The trial is not urgent, there is plenty of ti, let’s take it slow. First sit down, and listen to !”
Saying this, the fla spirit body pointed casually, and unexpectedly, a small table and two cushions appeared in front of Ye Zhen.
“Sit!”
Ye Zhen obediently sat down, a peculiar expression once again appearing on his face.
This cushion looked like it was made of Fire Jade, sitting on it felt warm, yet touching it with the hand, there was nothing tangible.
Yet, astoundingly, he could genuinely feel a cushion beneath him.
Seeing Ye Zhen’s astonishnt, the fla spirit body seated itself opposite Ye Zhen, “Just a small trick! In this Fire Spirit Pure Land, I am like a god, whatever I wish for, I have, whatever I wish to destroy, I can destroy!”
“Must have been exhausting in the Demon Clan Fortress these past few days, why not eat and drink a little first?” Saying this, the fla spirit body gestured casually, and on the small table appeared a roasted chicken still releasing heat, several plates of light dishes, as well as a jug of wine emitting flas and aromatic fragrance.
Seeing this scene, Ye Zhen was left dumbfounded once again, staring at the fla spirit body, he asked, “Is this real? Can it even be eaten?”
“Just take a bite, and you’ll know,” the Fire Fla Spirit Body said.
In the next instant, Ye Zhen took a big bite of the roasted chicken; after days of making do with dry rations and cold at in the Demon Clan Fortress, the sight of the steaming roasted chicken made his fingers itch.
As soon as he bit into it, Ye Zhen was stunned.
The at was bursting with flavor and dripping with juices, incredibly aromatic!
It was indeed edible!
However, when he swallowed it, sothing felt amiss. After chewing and swallowing, the greasy chicken did not give Ye Zhen the slightest sense of satiety but instead transford into warm currents flowing to every corner of his body!
Just one bite of chicken relieved all of Ye Zhen’s fatigue, instantly revitalizing him.
The ridians injured during battle were, at this mont, warmly healed, with hidden injuries completely recovered!
Ye Zhen was montarily stunned and, in disbelief, grabbed the wine jar and began to drink furiously. Then, his entire body swayed as if inebriated, his face flushed red.
In truth, Ye Zhen wasn’t drunk on wine but rather on spirit.
The wine contained an overwhelming amount of pure Spiritual Power, not only instantly filling Ye Zhen’s Dantian and Martial Vein, but also pushing Ye Zhen’s cultivation to the peak of the Third Stage of Vein Forging Realm in an instant.
Even so, the Spiritual Power was so abundant that Ye Zhen’s body couldn’t absorb it all, resulting in this condition!
This state of being drunk on spirit continued until the Earth Core Fire Commander’s Fire Fla Spirit Body patted Ye Zhen’s shoulder, instantly drawing away the excessive Spiritual Power within him, making him feel light and relieved!
“How about it, is it real?” the Fire Fla Spirit Body asked Ye Zhen with a smile.
“It’s real!”
Ye Zhen blurted out, then shook his head, “It’s not real!”
“The truth is unimportant; what matters is that you enjoyed the chicken’s flavor and absorbed the Spiritual Power within. That is enough!”
“So, now that you’ve eaten and had your drink, are you interested in hearing the tragic tale of this old man’s three female companions?” the Fire Fla Spirit Body asked.
Undoubtedly, Ye Zhen nodded without hesitation.
“I am neither foolish nor dull. My three female companions all left in sorrow because I did not choose any of them, and this I can accept!
However, in the following century, I exhausted every ans, utilizing even my power, yet failed to find any trace of them.
Moreover, for a hundred years, not one of them contacted . Despite sending out millions of talisman communications and tens of thousands of bounty orders, I found nothing!
No matter how dull, I knew sothing must have happened to them! And it wasn’t a trifling matter, as their cultivation was not low; it couldn’t have been a re accident that made them vanish silently!”
“In this situation, I started investigating!” At this point, the Fire Fla Spirit Body’s expression turned fierce.
“Before long, I had a clue, indicating it might be related to Yuyan’s identity as a Demon Race princess.”
“Previously, Yuyan had repeatedly leaked vital Demon Clan military secrets to , which made her unwelco among the Demon Clan and Demon Race, leading to being hunted by them.
With no choice, she joined in stepping into the Human Clan. However, within the Human Clan, there was also significant animosity towards the Demon Race, even though she had perford great deeds for the Human Clan.
Still, many extre groups resented the Demon Clan and Demon Race, continuously hunting any Demon or Demon Race mbers who infiltrated the Human Clan.
Before this, as I held a high position in the Human-Demon Battlefield, I could provide cover and protection using my power, so there was no issue! But once out of my protection, it beca extrely perilous!
Soon, I found a lead, and it turned out that the Demon Hunting Alliance had conducted operations around the ti of their disappearance, eventually tracing back to my old rival Si Chen.
Though there was no evidence, in the years that followed, I devoted myself to revenge. The reason for my premature fall was due to the severe injuries I sustained from several assassination attempts on this person, forcing into hiding, and eventually led to succumb due to these injuries!”
“Finally, using the last of my strength, I constructed this Ground Fire Heart Palace with the sole focus of finding an inheritor to place the hope of vengeance upon my future Martial Arts inheritor.”
“Young man, if you pass the test and beco my Martial Arts Inheritor, will you avenge this blood debt for ?”
Here, the Fire Fla Spirit Body paused and added, “Let remind you, my enemy’s power is more terrifying than you can imagine, dozens of tis more!
In my lifeti, I slew three Demon Clan Demon Masters, but my enemy Si Chen, before my fall, personally slew over a hundred Demon Clan Demon Masters!
Moreover, each of the Demon Masters he killed was more formidable than those I defeated! He even severely injured one of the few Great Demon Masters.”
“You need to think carefully. If you can pass the test and beco my Martial Arts Inheritor, will you take on this blood feud for ?” The Earth Core Fire Commander’s Fire Fla Spirit Body looked solemnly!
Hearing this question, Ye Zhen instinctively opened his mouth to respond, as the answer seed too straightforward to need consideration.
However, just as Ye Zhen was about to speak, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, causing cold sweat to stream down imdiately! (To be continued.
