Chapter 842: Crossing the Bridge…
To outsiders, this was a place of certain death.
But in Chen Huai'an's view, it was completely the same.
Just as Mu was gazing at the magma, a faint phantom of a crimson divine bird with outstretched wings flashed past in the depths of his eyes, which were turned away from the crowd.
A surge of qi rose within Chen Huai'an's body, and a phoenix's cry echoed.
The Vermilion Bird's soul in the dantian seemed to resonate with the raging fire in the magma, and suddenly became restless.
Buzz—
The originally raging, chaotic, and potentially devastating purplish-red poisonous fire had now become unusually friendly.
Chen Huai'an could clearly see the "breathing" rhythm of this sea of fire.
Beneath the seemingly chaotic surge of flames, there was actually a certain regular rhythm, which was clearly visible with the aid of the Vermilion Bird's Soul.
Where is the dead end?
For me, myeong is a wide road that I can walk across with my eyes closed.
"I see." A playful smile appeared on Chen Huai'an's lips.
The crimson glint in his eyes quietly faded away.
He turned his head to the side with an expression of normalcy, his voice loud but penetrating the rolling heat wave, clearly reaching the ears of the people behind him.
"Old Zhang, Old Gu, and Wang Shouyi, stick close to me." His tone was calm but firm: "Close your eyes, grab the belt of the person in front of you, and follow in my footsteps. Don't make a single mistake, and don't ask too many questions."
Having said that, he took his first step on the bright red iron chain.
This step has been taken.
Boom—! Just then, a pillar of fire erupted past.
But at the moment it touched the hem of her clothes, it was strangely "slow" by half a beat.
As if deliberately avoiding it, it allowed 놛 to pass by unharmed.
Zhang Yibai and the others were horrified as they watched the pillar of flame that brushed against Chen Huai'an's clothes.
However, they have more faith in Chen Huai'an's judgment.
But whose belt should we use?
Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng exchanged a glance, and finally their gazes fell on Wang Shouyi at the same time.
"Uh... two seniors..."
Wang Shouyi waved his hand awkwardly: "Is it possible that your belts are longer, while the belts of the 놖 (a derogatory term for a person) are... shorter?"
Zhang Yibai stared at Wang Shouyi with a forced smile: "Then let's see who lives longer between us?"
Wang Shouyi: "..."
One hour later, Wang Shouyi began to undress.
He held up his pants with one hand while closely following behind Chen Huai'an.
Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng took turns holding the belt of the cloak.
The people were like skewering candied hawthorns, their eyes tightly shut, afraid that if they looked down, they would slip.
From the moment we entered this space, all our ability to fly was forbidden; we could only walk. Even jumping became incredibly heavy, and if we were to slip and fall, it would mean certain death.
Seeing that several mortals actually swaggered away without even their clothes being burned, Ji Fuxing was stunned for a moment. He looked at his own burned-out hand and immediately felt indignant.
Why should I?
Why did this fire only burn this mortal?!
"Playing tricks." Bi Yuewu said with a gloomy face, "This Chen Huai'an seems to have mastered some kind of fire-avoiding footwork. Fuxing, shall we follow him?"
"Following in the footsteps of mortals? What a joke!" Having just lost an arm, Ge Fuxing felt even more insulted upon hearing Bi Yuewu's words.
With a raised chin, she arrogantly declared, "Does a true immortal like myself need to learn how mortals walk? What happened just now was an accident! With the low-grade immortal artifact 'Fire Cover,' we can simply walk over there!"
Having said that, he casually produced a pale golden pearl that exuded a chilling aura.
The precious pearl flew above her head and created a blue light curtain in front of her.
Ignoring Chen Huai'an's pace, Fu Xing casually stepped onto the iron chain again.
There are iron locks on the bridge, and the person in the middle bravely moves forward.
Bi Yuewu opened her mouth, about to say something.
Just then, the figure of 꺱府星 and Chen Huai'an's group parted ways.
Boom!!!
The seemingly "docile" purplish-red magma below suddenly erupted.
Countless streams of flame, as thick as fingers, shot out from the abyss like venomous snakes, easily piercing through the shield constructed by the immortal artifacts of the Heavenly Palace Star. The Fire Shield, which was strong enough to withstand a full-scale attack from a Celestial Immortal, shattered instantly.
"Snap!"
The precious pearl in 꺱府星's hand shattered.
"Aaaaaahh ...
꺱府星 waved his remaining hand frantically.
Although he escaped the fate of losing an arm, his hair, eyebrows, and buttocks were not spared from the flames, and his fairy clothes were burned to ashes.
Hearing the commotion, Zhang Yibai and the others turned around and saw that Fu Xing was actually 'dancing' on the iron chain. They couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle.
"Fool!" Bi Yuewu was shocked and dared not be careless any longer. He successively summoned several defensive magic treasures, enduring the all-pervasive fire poison, and desperately dragged the Star of the Underworld forward. Even so, he was still struggling to maneuver through the constantly surging pillars of fire. Although he reached the other side first, all the immortal artifacts in Bi Yuewu's hands, except for the array plate, were completely shattered.
I was just here to carry out a simple task, but I never expected to suffer such a huge loss.
Bi Yuewu looked at his several charred immortal artifacts and felt immense pain.
Many of them had already gone through hundreds of reincarnations with the 놛, and had not been destroyed in those hundreds of reincarnations, but were destroyed in this Nine Heavens Refining Profound Array.
If there aren't any treasures to replenish this formation, then we'll really be at a huge loss.
Whoosh—!
The iron lock trembled.
Bi Yuewu looked up at Chen Huai'an. Although he was swaying, he avoided all the pillars of fire and walked easily to Chen Huai'an and Fu Xing.
"The two immortal masters are indeed remarkable!"
Chen Huai'an bowed with admiration and sighed, "The magma under these iron chains is so dangerous that every step I take is fraught with difficulty, for fear that one wrong step will lead to eternal damnation."
In contrast, the two immortals moved swiftly across the iron chains, regarding the gushing pillar of fire as nothing more than dung!
"I wonder when this junior will be able to attain such profound and all-encompassing cultivation as the two immortal masters..."
The words were flattering, and the expression was obsequious, but the eyes were deep and unwavering, as if looking at two clowns.
Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng pressed their lips tightly together, wanting to laugh but daring not to.
They really dared to go see the star whose hair had been burned off, for fear of being unable to resist.
Wang Shouyi truly dared to mock immortals.
Seeing Chen Huai'an praising the two immortals like this, Nian Jin felt a little strange.
It seems... that we have it easier than these two immortals?
Well, since he's a senior, I'll just follow him and pay my respects to the immortal.
The elders said the immortal was awesome, so the immortal was awesome!
“You—!!” Bi Yuewu couldn’t hear the teasing and sarcasm in Chen Huai’an’s words at all.
He was so angry that he was trembling all over, yet he couldn't help but lash out.
At this moment, looking at the polite figure in white ahead.
An unprecedented sense of absurdity rose within Bi Yue Wu—in this godforsaken place, these damned mortals were more like gods than the gods!
