Yun Che felt as if he had walked into purgatory. The sound of the roiling magma in his ears was the ferocious roar of the devil of purgatory.
The devil of purgatory?
The Phoenix Spirit had said before that the first level was the Infernal Demon, but as far as the eye could see, there were only volcanoes and magma, with no sign of any living creature.
Yun Che slowly stepped forward. In this environment of purgatory of fire, Yun Che felt very clearly how amazing his fearlessness of fire was. Others had to use their profound strength to support the environment, but he did not feel any discomfort at all. He was not afraid of high temperatures or burning. It was not an exaggeration to say that he had a power that defied the heavens.
Just when he took the tenth step, he suddenly stopped and turned his gaze to the large pool of magma on the left. The red magma water released an astonishingly high temperature, churning violently, and churning higher and higher, more and more violently... Suddenly, with a loud bang, a large area of magma water was violently rushed away, sprinkled all over the sky, and a huge body covered in flames jumped high from the magma and landed in front of Yun Che with a loud bang.
This was a fire giant with his entire body ablaze. He was ten feet tall, with red flames burning in every part of his body. There were two ferocious eyes on his head, and on top of his head were two flaming horns that were more than three feet long. In the center of the horns, there was a faint golden mark.
Yun Che quickly stepped back and looked up at this overly tall flaming giant… Was this the Infernal Flame Demon that the Phoenix Spirit had mentioned?
“Jasmine? What level is this big guy?” Yun Che asked quickly.
“It is a high-level True Mysterious Flame Beast. However, in this flame environment, not only can its profound strength and vitality recover extremely quickly, but the power of the flames it releases is also comparable to that of the Spiritual Profound Realm!” Jasmine’s voice was filled with a deep warning.
A low-level Nascent Profound Realm warrior fighting against a high-level True Profound Realm warrior comparable to the Spiritual Profound Realm would originally have no chance of winning, but if it was a pure Flame Beast, that might not be the case!
The Infernal Flame Demon roared wildly, its flaming eyes locked onto Yun Che’s position, and a huge mouth opened below its eyes. A dozen large fireballs flew out of its mouth in a chaotic manner, whistling towards him.
Yun Che stood there motionless, allowing the fireball to fall on him.
Puff, puff, puff, puff…
Fireballs exploded on the surface of Yun Che's body one after another, and the violent flame power was released crazily, but after invading Yun Che's body, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, without any sound, and did not cause Yun Che the slightest harm. In the flashing firelight, Yun Che rushed back to the Purgatory Flame Demon, and came in front of it in an instant... However, facing the Purgatory Flame Demon's ten-foot-tall body, his body seemed too small, and he could only be regarded as coming to its feet. With a low shout, the "Evil Soul" was activated, and the blow of condensed profound energy hit its calf fiercely.
BANG!!
This heavy blow was like hitting a heavy bronze ancient bell, and the recoil caused Yun Che's hand bones to ache. However, the calf of the Purgatory Flame Demon that was hit did not even tremble, and the flames in that part only extinguished briefly, and then burst out again in an instant.
What a hard body… Yun Che secretly took a breath. After all, this Purgatory Flame Demon was a high-level True Mystical Beast. Even if it activated its Evil Soul, his full-strength attack would not be able to hurt it at all. At this rate, the flames of the Purgatory Flame Demon were indeed ineffective against him, but his attacks also could not hurt the Purgatory Flame Demon at all.
Since the palm cannot be injured, then...
Yun Che reached out with his left hand, and took out the Tiger Soul Sword, which was the most precious treasure of the Xiao Clan branch and the only earthly profound weapon in New Moon City. He infused it with profound energy and fiercely cut towards the Purgatory Flame Demon.
Yun Che didn't know exactly what an Earthly Profound Weapon was. A level higher than an Earthly Profound Weapon was a Skyly Profound Weapon, and in the entire Blue Wind Empire, there were no more than ten Skyly Profound Weapons of all types. One could imagine how precious and rare an Earthly Profound Weapon, which was only one level lower than a Skyly Profound Weapon, was. With an Earthly Profound Weapon in hand, even without pouring any profound energy into it, even if it was held in the hand of a mortal, one could directly cut through the profound defense of a Spiritual Profound Realm Profound Realm Profound Master.
Chi~~~~
The moment the Tiger Soul Sword slashed at the body of the Infernal Flame Demon, a faint tiger roar came from Yun Che’s ears. The flames on the part of the Infernal Flame Demon that was hit instantly went out, revealing its pitch-black body. Large pieces of skin and flesh were directly cut off by the Tiger Soul Sword and flew far away mixed with the flames.
“Ahhh!!!”
The Purgatory Flame Demon became furious in pain and stomped towards Yun Che. At the same time, the rain of fire fell densely under the waving of its claws, completely covering the surrounding area of dozens of feet. This kind of large-scale flame attack was definitely not something a true profound beast could launch, but the environment here allowed the Purgatory Flame Demon's flame power to be enhanced several times.
Yun Che completely ignored the rain of fire, but the heavy stomping of the Purgatory Flame Demon was something Yun Che could not easily withstand. He was directly blown away and fell ten feet away. However, the slow movement of the Purgatory Flame Demon was also fully revealed in front of Yun Che. He did not wait for his body to stand firm, and rushed back towards the meteor shower, increasing his speed to the extreme, using the Star God Fragment to continuously phantom himself, and the real and phantom images chaotically intertwined under the Purgatory Flame Demon's feet, and the Tiger Soul Sword cut its calves one by one.
The Purgatory Flame Demon became even more violent after suffering pain again and again, releasing flames crazily. The continuous power of the flames turned the surrounding area into a sea of fire. Every step Yun Che took was in flames more than one meter high, but he was undoubtedly walking on flat ground, without any injury. The Purgatory Flame Demon was huge and moved slowly. Yun Che easily dodged its physical attacks time and time again. Every time Yun Che's phantom body appeared, he would fiercely cut the Purgatory Flame Demon's calf with a sword, cutting off a large piece of its flesh.
Chila! !
Another fierce sword thrust deeply into the sole of the foot of the Purgatory Flame Demon. The Purgatory Flame Demon let out a roar that shook the heavens, and suddenly flames rose from its right fist, and then it slammed into the ground.
A dangerous aura came from the sky. Yun Che tilted his gaze upwards, and then without thinking, a Star God Shattered Shadow violently retreated more than a dozen positions...
Boom! !
The Purgatory Flame Demon's flaming fist landed, causing a huge flaming explosion. The momentum was no less than the explosion of the Sky-shaking Thunder. Although Yun Che dodged, he was still hit by the aftermath. He took several steps back while suffocating, and stepped into the magma behind him.
The edge of the lava pool was very shallow, only reaching Yun Che's calves. He did not rush forward again, but stood in the lava with the Tiger Soul Sword in hand, frowning for a while, because he suddenly realized that the more than 30 wounds caused by the more than 30 sword strikes he had made on the Purgatory Flame Demon had now all disappeared.
"This princess has already told you that it has a very strong ability to recover in this flame environment. Not only does its flame power never run out, but ordinary injuries will heal in a short time. It will only take five or six breaths at most to recover from the damage you caused it. Even if you continue to fight like this for another hundred years, you will not be able to cause any substantial damage to it."
Jasmine said in a cold voice. After she finished speaking, she paused for a long time and suddenly said, "I got it! Attack the golden mark on its head. That is its weak point!"
“Golden mark?” Yun Che raised his head and saw the dazzling golden spot between its two horns at a glance.
"The aura of profound energy in that part is the weakest. It should be its weak point. Try to attack there."
Yun Che raised his head, but stood there for a long time without moving. Because this Purgatory Flame Demon was ten feet tall, with his current profound strength, still in the evil spirit state, he could only jump up to a height of seven or eight feet, and could not touch its forehead at all.
"It seems that I can only take a risk and give it a try!"
Yun Che gritted his teeth and slowly walked to the front of the Purgatory Flame Demon. After fighting with it in the flames for a while, a sense of danger came over his head again. The Purgatory Flame Demon had raised its right fist, which was blazing with flames, and smashed heavily towards Yun Che's position.
And Yun Che was waiting for this moment. He used a Star God Shattered Shadow to instantly retreat about ten body lengths away, avoiding the center point of the Purgatory Flame Demon's flaming fist. Then, a second before its fist landed, he took a deep breath and jumped up with all his strength, directly rising seven feet high.
Boom! !
There was a roar below, and even though he was in the sky, he could still feel the shocking air waves coming from under his feet. As the Purgatory Flame Demon slammed its fist into the ground, its body also bent down, and its forehead dropped to a height of about six feet... and was below and to the side of Yun Che.
When in the air, unless one has reached the Heavenly Profound Realm and can control the air with profound force, one cannot use force in the air, let alone move in the air, and even the direction of falling is difficult to control. But this is not true for Yun Che. He shook his body, and the Star God Shattered Shadow was activated. He instantly moved two feet horizontally in the air, and moved accurately to the top of the head of the Purgatory Flame Demon. His body fell vertically, and the Tiger Soul Sword was also tightly grasped by his hands...
“Meteor…moon…sinking…stars…hh!!”
A strong light of power suddenly shone from the Tiger Soul Sword. An incomparably clear tiger roar sounded loudly in this world of lava purgatory, shaking the surroundings. Amid the tiger roar and Yun Che’s roar, the Tiger Soul Sword, carrying the power of the Falling Moon and Sinking Stars, accurately touched the golden light on the forehead of the Purgatory Flame Demon, and then pierced into it like cutting tofu… The three-foot-three-inch-long sword body was completely immersed in it, and then, even the hilt was fiercely penetrated in under the extremely violent power.
Yun Che fell to the ground, quickly closed his Evil Soul Profound Gate, and gasped for air. However, the body of the Purgatory Flame Demon had already been frozen there. After a moment, it suddenly let out an extremely painful and desperate roar, and its huge body slowly fell forward, and fell heavily to the ground with a loud bang.
The flames on his body quickly extinguished, leaving only a few tiny flames, revealing his huge black body. Then, even his body began to dissipate quickly, until it completely disappeared like mist. On the red ground, only the Tiger Soul Sword that killed him with one strike remained.
“Success… Success!” Yun Che picked up the Tiger Soul Sword and breathed a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, the scene in front of him suddenly twisted, and then spun and blurred. When everything finally froze, the red earth, volcanoes, magma... all disappeared. Instead, there was a vast, endless wasteland that was so flat that no convex land could be seen.
"The second level of the trial: Phoenix Arrow."
[I have been trying hard to catch up these days. I wanted to finish it in the shortest possible time, but I was forced to accompany a woman to Qingdao to take the national exam over the weekend, and was also forced to watch a basketball game with her (which I am not interested in at all). There is a high possibility that I will delay the update again. It may not be interrupted, but I can't guarantee it... Amitabha. ]
