The Fire Domain is practically tailor-made for the environment Bai Hao is currently in.
With this domain, he no longer needed to fear the flowing, churning lava.
"It seems like heaven is helping me!"
Even the system is helping him, so if he doesn't achieve something good, Bai Hao himself won't be able to forgive himself.
"Now it's my turn!"
Bai Hao simply slung the newly acquired Immortal-Slaying Sword over his shoulder and continued striding forward.
Surrounded by churning magma and scorching heat waves, he unleashed his "Fire Domain" without hesitation.
Sure enough, the moment he unleashed his domain, the surrounding heatwaves instantly dissipated, as if they were all in fear of Bai Hao.
At the same time, Bai Hao could clearly feel the extremely dense fire power permeating the surroundings, and that fire power was all usable by him. As long as he wanted, he could control the surrounding fire energy at any time.
This is the Realm of Fire!
Having already tasted the initial benefits, Bai Hao once again gave the system's rewards a thumbs up.
As expected, the only thing that will always be good to him is the system...
Leaving the main hall, Bai Hao continued forward. The scene ahead became increasingly enclosed, and he could no longer see any lava. As for the high temperature, he could no longer feel it now that he had activated his Fire Domain.
However, the surrounding fire energy has never diminished; it remains incredibly dense everywhere.
He came to another corridor, which was as long as ever.
However, as soon as they stepped into the corridor, screams came from a place out of sight, sounding eerie and terrifying, making them feel fearful.
Moreover, Bai Hao also saw that there were bloody footprints and drag marks along the passage in front of him, as if someone wanted to run away but was dragged back by something.
If it had been from the beginning, Bai Hao might have been terrified upon hearing that scream.
But now, he is full of confidence, with the newly acquired Immortal-Slaying Sword on his back. "If I can slay immortals, what else is there to be afraid of?"
Moreover, what he just witnessed was merely people fighting over resources. Perhaps what lies ahead is nothing more than everyone slaughtering each other.
With this in mind, Bai Hao strode forward fearlessly...
He quickly followed the sound to another palace.
This palace was smaller than the main hall he had just passed. As Bai Hao had expected, there were indeed many people fighting fiercely inside, divided into two groups, all of whom Bai Hao did not recognize.
However, their clothes clearly distinguished them as two groups. One group consisted of five men dressed in dark red clothes, each carrying an axe attached to an iron chain.
The other side only has one person.
To be precise, there were three people, all dressed in white. However, two of them were men, who were killed by the group of men in red just as Bai Hao arrived, leaving only a woman alive.
From Bai Hao's position, he couldn't see the woman's face clearly, but he could only guess from her slender back that she must be a beautiful woman.
...
"Song Wan, how dare you lay a hand on us? Aren't you afraid we'll wipe out your entire Song family?!" Seeing her companions die tragically, the woman showed no fear; instead, a chill crept onto her face as she coldly questioned them.
The one called "Song Wan" was the only one among the red-clad men who could be considered relatively handsome, but his handsome face was now filled with sinister intent as he said:
"Hmph, Ouyang Yan, let me tell you, if we dare to make a move today, we're not afraid of retaliation. Of course, if you have a chance to leave here alive!"
Song Wan's face was cold. As soon as he finished speaking, he swung the chain axe in his hand and slashed at Ouyang Yan without any mercy!
Ouyang Yan was not to be outdone. Holding a slender sword, she moved with a graceful step, dodging Song Wan's attack while thrusting her sword forward!
But Song Wan's reaction was equally swift. Unable to retract his axe, he swung the half-chain in his hand with tremendous force, making his defense impenetrable.
Ouyang Yan thrust her sword forward, but was immediately deflected. However, she quickly regained her balance and retreated to create distance.
Seeing this, Song Wan's companions were also about to take action, but after delivering the goods, they stopped them.
"Don't make a move yet. Let me have a good fight with this ungrateful woman. If I can't beat her, then you can make your move."
The first half of the sentence is arrogant, but the second half is quite lacking in manners.
Bai Hao, who was secretly watching from the side, felt ashamed for Song Wan. Bai Hao thought that the first half of what Song Wan said was a decent man, but the second half left Bai Hao speechless.
If you can't beat them, then you have to take action... That just shows how cautious you are. As for saving face, can you eat that?
However, he could understand Song Wan's current situation.
Because of the fact that Song Wan, who is in the middle stage of Body Tempering, is on the red-clothed side, while the other four are two in the early stage and two in the middle stage of Body Tempering respectively, their strength is already very strong even in the Falling Sea Sect.
However, Ouyang Yan, who was able to make so many Body Tempering stage cultivators here wary, had reached the late stage of Body Tempering, making her stronger than everyone else present.
It's no wonder that Song Wan wanted a one-on-one fight but didn't dare to be too definitive, since there's still a significant difference between the mid-stage and late-stage Body Tempering realms.
Ouyang Yan is not afraid of anyone when fighting one against one, but if she were to fight five against one, even a late-stage Body Tempering cultivator would find it very difficult.
However, since Song Wan wanted to challenge her to a one-on-one duel, she had no reason to refuse such a good opportunity.
"Then let me see just how capable you really are!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ouyang Yan made her move again, unleashing a powerful sword strike. With just one thrust, dozens of sword shadows swept towards Song Wan, covering the sky!
Faced with such sharp sword energy, Song Wan dared not be careless. He quickly pulled back his chain axe and swung it in front of him to create an impenetrable defensive barrier. The strong wind even created a shield to block Ouyang Yan's sword energy.
The dense barrage of sword energy struck the shield. Although it didn't break through, the powerful force forced him to retreat step by step, and the shield grew weaker and weaker.
Seeing that the shield was about to break, Ouyang Yan thrust out her sword again without hesitation. The sword blade flashed with a cold light and stabbed hard into Song Wan's shield.
"boom!"
Almost instantly, Song Wan's shield shattered, and Ouyang Yan's sword was aimed directly at his brow!
Song Wan's pupils dilated suddenly, and he quickly pulled back his axe to block.
"when!"
Although the power contained in Ouyang Yan's sword did not sever the entire axe, it still forced Song Wan to kneel on the ground, unable to bear the weight.
Ouyang Yan continued to increase the power of her sword without expression, seemingly intending to crush Song Wan to death.
Just then, a ruthless glint flashed in Song Wan's eyes. He pressed his finger on the axe, and two silver needles shot out from the back of the axe...
