The remaining soul of Yan Huang suddenly froze, and the seven emotions and karmic fire condensed into a rainbow bridge that pierced through his eyebrows.
Qin Haitian seized the moment and used both swords to strike a stunning blow. The sword energy carried the prayers of the ancient ancestors for fire sacrifices, and it actually ignited the fire of civilization in the void!
The giant's body crumbled piece by piece, turning into fireflies all over the sky.
Those light spots did not dissipate, but instead gathered into a red-gold scroll and fell into Qin Haitian's hands.
The moment the scroll unfolded, the entire Skyfire Purgatory was filled with a vast Taoist voice:
"; The seven emotions refine your heart, the fire of karma tempers your soul, I grant you the virtue of fire, and you control the thirty-three layers of the palace...";
Xia Qiuyan suddenly groaned, and the Ice Phoenix wings behind her ignited with golden red flames.
She was surprised to find that the yin and yang energies in her body were circulating in some mysterious trajectory. With each cycle, a flame pattern appeared on her spirit platform.
"Is this... the Great Sun Glazed Fire?" Sanskrit words were flowing in the golden flames dancing on her fingertips.
The Vermillion Bird mark on Qin Haitian's forehead flickered, and suddenly he embraced Xia Qiuyan and turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the earth's veins.
The moment they disappeared, nine purple divine thunders struck down, vaporizing all the lava within a hundred miles radius.
In the corridor where liquid flames flowed, Qin Haitian used sword energy to open the protective shield.
Xia Qiuyan discovered that the rock wall was covered with reliefs of human heads and snake bodies, and each relief was holding up a burning star.
"This is the real Zhurong ruins." Qin Haitian touched the relief, and the stars suddenly projected a vast star map. "Do you know why the first stage of the Skyfire Purgatory takes thirty days?"
Xia Qiuyan stared at the twenty-eight constellations circulating in the star map, and suddenly realized: "Thirty days is a reincarnation, which corresponds to the Heart Moon Fox guarding the South Sky!"
Before he finished speaking, the reliefs moved with a loud bang, revealing a huge bronze door engraved with the Lianshan Yi hexagrams.
A dark green flame seeped out from the crack in the door, causing Qin Haitian's Vermillion Bird Dao Pattern to vibrate violently.
"Nanming Lihuo!" The two said in unison. This innate fire, born at the beginning of the world, now became a fatal barrier blocking them.
Xia Qiuyan suddenly took off the jade hairpin that tied her hair. The moment her black hair fell down, the aura of her whole body blended perfectly with it.
Qin Haitian placed his palm on the acupoint on her back. He urged his true energy to blend through 360 acupoints, forming a chaotic vortex between the two of them. The Nanming Lihuo seemed to have met its nemesis, and it automatically opened a channel.
The scene behind the door shocked the two well-informed people - they saw a thousand-foot altar suspended in the void, and seventy-two dragon pillars surrounding a burning bronze tripod.
The inscription on the body of the tripod actually records the entire "Zhu Rong Burning Heaven Art" which had long been lost.
Suddenly, a childish voice rang out from the cauldron: "After 30,000 years, someone has finally made it this far."
A blue lotus fire rose from the cauldron and turned into a Taoist boy with red lips and white teeth: "But if you want to inherit, you must first answer - what is fire?"
Qin Haitian stared at the faint mark of chaos between the Taoist boy's eyebrows, and suddenly remembered a fragment of the record in the cave magic weapon, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Suiren made fire for firewood, Shennong burned the tripod for medicine, Xuanyuan forged the sword for weapons...but the real fire--" He held Xia Qiuyan's hand, and two breaths rushed into the sky, "is the immortal light of civilization, and the way of yin and yang complementing each other!"
The Taoist boy clapped his hands and laughed, his body dissipating into thousands of sparks.
Every spark turned into golden words and merged into the two people's sea of consciousness.
The altar began to collapse, but the dragon pillars came alive, wrapping around them and rushing towards the ground...
When Qin Haitian opened his eyes again, he found himself standing on the edge of a cliff covered with red crystal flowers, and Xia Qiuyan was leaning against her side.
"After practicing the Zhurong Burning Heaven Art, this Skyfire Purgatory will no longer be dangerous!" Qin Haitian said with a smile.
"Yes!" Xia Qiuyan nodded: "I wonder what the situation is with the others?"
Zhurong Burning Heaven Art is a method of cultivation, and it is at a very high level!
What realm can one reach through cultivation?
Qin Haitian felt that he could at least cultivate to the Great Emperor realm, just like the Alchemy Saint Bai Longtao.
"As long as we can kill some of the demons in the Skyfire Purgatory, take the Fire Spirit Crystal Cores from their bodies and refine them, it will be easy to persist for thirty days!" Qin Haitian said with a smile: "You can even get some benefits from it, such as making the fire attribute energy in your body more concentrated."
"That's true!" Upon hearing this, Xia Qiuyan nodded.
But it is very difficult to obtain the most core thing in the Sky Fire Purgatory like them, which is Zhurong Burning Heaven Art.
Suddenly, Xia Qiuyan's expression changed: "What we saw in the martial arts arena before was a total of nine suspended arenas, leading to nine spaces. We are now in the Skyfire Purgatory. What do you think the other spaces are?"
"This..." Qin Haitian was stunned when he heard this: "Either it is also the Heavenly Fire Purgatory, or something else, such as gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, and darkness?"
"I'm not sure about that!" Xia Qiuyan said, "We'll know after we leave!"
"Yeah, that's right!" Qin Haitian nodded, then frowned slightly.
Seeing that Qin Haitian looked a little strange, Xia Qiuyan asked, "What's wrong? Are you worried about your other Taoist companions?"
"Yes." Qin Haitian nodded. Even if Xia Qiuyan was jealous, he would still say it. After all, he treated his fellow Taoists equally.
But to Qin Haitian's surprise, Xia Qiuyan was not jealous. Instead, she smiled and said, "I was right about you!"
