The Power of the Holy Flame

Chapter 90 The Power of the Holy Flame

Suddenly, strange creatures appeared in the lava lake and surrounded Gu Ce.

"Another puppet?"

Gu Ce used his "Myriad Incarnations" technique to quickly create distance.

Most of these puppets are only at the cosmic level, with a few at the domain lord level. Their bodies are covered with a special membrane that seems to help them withstand the high temperatures in the lava lake, allowing them to move freely.

These puppets have no reason and only know how to attack on instinct, which is quite similar to the flame beasts in the Chaotic Lands. It is possible that the Void Emperor got his inspiration from those flame beasts.

"This is troublesome." Gu Ce frowned.

"The Frozen Wasteland!"

Countless snowflake sword energies appeared, and Gu Ce instantly unleashed over a thousand sword strikes, annihilating the surrounding puppets. However, from the depths of the lava lake, puppets continued to emerge in an endless stream.

"snort!"

……

Above the lava lake.

The Thousand Vine Star-Eating Grass unleashed its power, instantly killing everyone except Puyang Wan and Qi Yunxian.

Most of the vines controlled the lava golem, rendering it unable to move. The remaining vines grabbed Puyang Wan and Qi Yunxian, who were still putting up a stubborn resistance, but they were not far from death.

The entire sky above the lava lake was almost completely obscured by the body of the Star-Eating Grass, which terrified even the Second Son of Yao Guang, who was far away.

"Brother, please don't let anything happen to you!" Yao Guang's second son prayed for Gu Ce.

Puyang Wan and Qi Yunxian were so exhausted that they barely had the strength to struggle. They looked at each other and both felt the helplessness in the other's eyes.

If you don't even know where the enemy is or who they are, and you're about to be killed by their parasitic plants, who wouldn't feel frustrated in that situation?

"Qi Yunxian, you renowned genius, you've finally met your match!" Puyang Wan suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter unrestrained.

"Puyang Wan, you're an elder of the Puyang family, how dare you talk to me like that?" Qi Yunxian sneered.

"It's different." Puyang Wan smiled. "My death means nothing to the Puyang family, but you, even if you survive this time, your family's high-ranking combat power is already wiped out. There's no place for your Qi family in Yao Guang Main City! Hahaha!"

"You!" Qi Yunxian laughed in anger, but was unable to make a move because he was entangled by the Star-Eating Grass.

"Qi Yunxian, if you have any other tricks up your sleeve, just use them," Puyang Wan said. "You were once a genius who shocked the entire Yao Guang Main City. Even I heard about you in Puyang Main City. The Mirror Lake Saint God even summoned you once, although he didn't take you as a disciple. But do you really have no other tricks up your sleeve?"

"Puyang Wan, you've come to me for help?" Qi Yunxian sneered.

"This isn't a plea for mercy," Puyang said dismissively.

"If you don't take action, we'll all be killed by this parasitic plant. Even if you keep your primordial fire, it won't be of any use then."

"Heh." Qi Yunxian sneered and fell silent.

Just when Puyang Wan thought he really had no backup plan, a powerful aura rose from Qi Yunxian's body.

"Holy Flame!" Puyang Wan's eyes widened.

"boom!!!"

Pale blue flames rose from Qi Yunxian's body.

Qi Yunxian's aura continued to climb, rising from the third level of the Realm Lord to the fourth, fifth, and so on up to the eighth and ninth levels!

Peak Realm Lord level!

"Hmph." Qi Yunxian groaned, her breath erratic.

Clearly, his physical condition was not strong enough to sustain him in this state for long. He would probably have to stop after launching just one attack, or he would be burned to ashes by the holy flames.

"Water Void Sacred Flame, indeed, the patriarch was right. Although Qi Yunxian was not accepted as a disciple, he still received the Holy God's reward, and may even be connected with that person from the Yao Guang family." Puyang Wan thought to himself.

Qi Yunxian's strength increased so rapidly that the Star-Eating Grass couldn't react at all.

"Burn out!" Qi Yunxian shouted.

The pale blue flames instantly ignited the Star-Eating Grass, but instead of a burning sensation, it brought the pain of being frozen into ice and then crushed into powder, essentially crushed into fragments.

Before the Star-Eating Grass could react, it was instantly severely injured. However, remembering Gu Ce's orders, it could not release the Lava Golem and could only withstand Qi Yunxian's attack. In the blink of an eye, it became on the verge of death.

Fortunately, Qi Yunxian's targets included not only the Star-Eating Grass but also the Lava Golem.

The lava golem's hard shell was destroyed in an instant, its head was shattered, exposing its core. Its upper body was completely annihilated, leaving only its lower body rooted in the lava lake.

"puff!"

After the attack, Qi Yunxian's aura quickly weakened, and her entire body fell to the ground.

A figure dressed in gorgeous clothes caught him. Qi Yunxian barely opened his eyes and saw an unexpected person.

"Ye'er?" Qi Yunxian asked in surprise.

"Teacher." Yao Guang's second son, oh no, his real name should be Yao Guang Ye.

"Teacher, how did you get here? And just now, that was... the aura of the Holy Flame?" Yao Guangye asked, puzzled.

"That should be said... Ye'er, be careful!" Qi Yunxian's expression suddenly changed.

Puyang Wan appeared behind Yao Guangye, clearly not there to witness the bond between master and disciple.

Qi Yunxian's attack just now was a group attack, but it was mainly aimed at the Star-Eating Grass and the Lava Golem. Puyang Wan didn't seem to be seriously injured, no one knows how he did it.

Puyang Wan grinned maliciously, holding a curved knife, preparing to attack the critically injured Qi Yunxian and Yaoguangye.

"Who hurt my star-eating plant?"

The longsword pierced through Puyang Wan's chest, and a cold, sharp voice rang out.

The leaf on the rock turned bright with joy.

"Big brother!"

"Big brother?" Qi Yunxian asked, puzzled.

Isn't Yao Guangyou Yao Guangye's older brother?

Gu Ce nodded slightly, and with a swift stroke, Puyang Wan, already weakened, was killed instantly by the sneak attack from behind.

Immediately, Gu Ce's expression turned cold as he looked at Qi Yunxian on the ground, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

My Star-Eating Grass finally broke through to the Realm Lord level, and before I could even use it a few times, it was severely injured by your attack. I don't know how long it will take to fully recover.

"Brother, this is my teacher. Can you spare his life?" Yao Guangye said through gritted teeth when she saw that Gu Ce seemed about to make a move.

"Your poisonous fruit can be eaten by my teacher! My teacher has great talent. He almost became a disciple of the Mirror Lake Saint God back then. He also has a good relationship with my grandfather. He watched me grow up and taught me cultivation," Yao Guangye said.

"Teacher?" Gu Ce narrowed his eyes, seemingly lost in thought.

A crippled Realm Lord at the third rank of Realm Lord doesn't seem worth 100 Mixed Yuan Units.

But next, Gu Ce's plan will require the help of many people in high positions.

"Eat it, then let's go see what's in the Void Emperor's Treasury."

Gu Ce said after dropping a Silent Poison Fruit.
