Chapter 145
The subtle action of the Empress Yan didn’t escape Yang Chen’s notice, but he didn’t give it much thought. After all, even though their “standoff” didn’t last long, it had been several years since then. Yang Chen continued: “Senior Empress Yan, you haven’t cultivated the Myriad Flas Celestial Conflagration Art, have you? In that case, the Profound Deep Cold Fla isn’t sothing you absolutely need. You might as well hand it over.”
The Empress Yan’s expression imdiately froze, her face full of disbelief as she looked at Yang Chen.
“How do you know about the Myriad Flas Celestial Conflagration Art?”
“Hehe, Senior Empress Yan, have you forgotten? I’m Yan’er’s stepfather!” Yang Chen smiled. “Naturally, Yan’er told .”
“Hmph!” The Empress Yan snorted, her expression changing. Although she hadn’t cultivated the Ten Thousand Flas Burning the Heavens, the Profound Deep Cold Fla was still extrely important to her. If she could refine it, she would possess two different types of primordial fire. This wouldn’t just directly increase her strength; it would also give her an advantage, making her almost unbeatable within her realm. If she ever sought revenge in the future, she would stand a much better chance. How could she simply give it up?
At that mont, the Profound Deep Cold Fla that was under her control suddenly began to stir. White flas started to spread out, breaking through the restrictions she had placed on it.
“Damn it!” the Empress Yan muttered. Her severe injuries had weakened her control over the fla. The Profound Deep Cold Fla was intelligent and had sensed her weakened state, seizing the opportunity to break free from her restrictions. Now, the Profound Deep Cold Fla had completely fallen into a frenzy. White flas were pouring out uncontrollably.
The most feared scenario when trying to ta a primordial fire was this: primordial fires were born of heaven and earth, containing imnse primal power. Countless cultivators had perished in the explosions of primordial fires, including many at the Soul Transformation and Nascent Soul realms. Even though the Empress Yan possessed Earth Core Red Fire, she didn’t dare to be reckless at this mont.
The Empress Yan tried to gather all her strength to reseal the Profound Deep Cold Fla, but she knew all too well that, in her current state, even if she managed to reseal it, it would only benefit Yang Chen and his master. Rather than help them, she decided … A ruthless glint flashed in her eyes as she released all her restrictions and tossed the Profound Deep Cold Fla a short distance away. Without the Empress Yan’s restrictions, the Profound Deep Cold Fla erupted in full force. White flas flooded the entire magma-filled world, turning it into a sea of white, an exotic fire.
“Hmph, Yang Chen, you forced into this! Now that the primordial fire has exploded, no one will be able to take it!” the Empress Yan sneered. “Let’s see who can find the origin of the fla and refine it first!”
After saying this, she wrapped herself in Earth Core Red Fire and plunged into the white flas.
Zhan Lingshuang, anwhile, gathered her true qi, forming six large hand seals to suppress six different points, attempting to reseal the Profound Deep Cold Fla.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The white flas of the Profound Deep Cold Fla surged wildly, burning through Zhan Lingshuang’s true qi hand seals.
“Damn it!” Zhan Lingshuang was filled with frustration. Despite being a Nascent Soul cultivator, she was unable to seal a primordial fire. Yang Chen quickly said: “Master, the primordial fire has gone into a frenzy and erupted; it’s too late to seal it now. We must enter the flas and locate the Profound Deep Cold Fla’s origin. Only by refining the origin can we ta it!”
“I’ll use the Green Lotus Heavenly Fla to temporarily shield us from the Profound Deep Cold Fla!”
“Alright!” Zhan Lingshuang didn’t hesitate. She walked over to Yang Chen, who activated the Green Lotus Heavenly Fla, enveloping them both in a green fla. This protected them from the alternating cold and hot temperatures of the Profound Deep Cold Fla, and they charged into the sea of white flas.
Yang Chen didn’t know where the Profound Deep Cold Fla’s origin was. His spiritual sense was unable to extend far in the white fire sea, as any spiritual thoughts released were burned by the flas. They could only push forward, enduring the extre cold and heat.
The power of the primordial fire explosion was terrifying, and Yang Chen was experiencing it for the first ti. He could only muster all his strength to resist with the Green Lotus Heavenly Fla, but his true qi was depleting rapidly. If this continued, he wouldn’t last long. Yang Chen turned to Zhan Lingshuang and said: “Master, hold tight. This way, I can reduce the size of the fla shield. Otherwise, my true qi will run out too quickly!”
“Hold you tight?” Zhan Lingshuang was stunned. She then moved a little closer to Yang Chen, standing shoulder to shoulder with him.
“Sigh, Master, this isn’t helping! We’re still too spread out, and I’m consuming too much true qi. You need to hold tightly!” Yang Chen urged.
“You’re so useless!” Zhan Lingshuang sighed in resignation, extending her arms and wrapping them around Yang Chen’s chest, pressing her body tightly against his.
Suddenly, a soft sensation spread through Yang Chen’s body. Feeling his master’s body so close to his, Yang Chen couldn’t help but marvel at how remarkable her figure was. Even compared to Feng Yuwan’s voluptuous form, his master’s figure was not lacking in the slightest. It was only because she often wore loose robes that her beauty wasn’t as obvious. If not for that, she would undoubtedly be seen as a captivating beauty as well.
Activating his Golden Dragon Eyes, Yang Chen could only see a little over ten ters ahead. Even so, this was a significant advantage compared to the Empress Yan. Finally, after about half an hour, Yang Chen spotted a small white fla. It was tiny, as if it could be extinguished at any mont, yet it was clearly separate from the surrounding raging white flas. Yang Chen knew at once that this small white fla was the origin of the Profound Deep Cold Fla.
“Hiding well, aren’t you? If it weren’t for my sharp eyes, I wouldn’t have found you!” Yang Chen grinned as he flew toward it.
Sensing Yang Chen’s approach, two tiny fla legs sprouted from the white fla, and it tried to flee.
“Trying to run? Not so easy!”
While Zhan Lingshuang, lying on Yang Chen’s back, was a Void Refinent cultivator, her powerful spiritual sense was completely blinded in the sea of white flas, so she didn’t notice the small fla. Moreover, lying against her disciple’s back, she couldn’t help but feel a peculiar emotion rising inside her as she felt his broad back and the strong, masculine aura he radiated.
Ever since Chen’er was a child, she had taken him to the Xuantian Sect and raised him, always protecting him as his master. But now, it was Chen’er who was protecting her. Her Chen’er had truly grown up.
Resting on Yang Chen’s back, even though they were surrounded by the blinding white flas of the primordial fire, Zhan Lingshuang felt a strange peace in her heart. Unable to resist, she rested her head on Yang Chen’s back.
