Chapter 765: The Big Boss Appears
As Flame Lord’s name was spoken by the City God, a strange power spread out from the scroll.
This scroll, held by Qin Feng, spread a cool barrier of flame, shielding everyone present and providing them with a cool sensation.
The scroll then floated away from Qin Feng’s grasp, leading the group further into the volcano. It seemed to be guiding them.
Meanwhile, deep in the volcanic flames, a man with flowing fire-like hair and a body covered in flame patterns slowly opened his eyes. He sensed a calling and the presence of something revolting.
The group approached a peculiar, massive eyeball they had seen before. At that moment, the eye’s pupil faced the sky, emitting the brilliant red light.
The group wondered about the eye’s actions and noticed a swirling vortex in the high sky between the flame ocean and a dark curtain. It formed a black passage, emanating ominous energy.
The City God urged the group to stop the eye as it was attempting to establish a connection between the Immortal Realm and the present world.
Mu Heng raised the black coffin from his back and hurled it at the eyeball. The coffin contained the power of life and death, which could eradicate the eyeball’s form, ultimately destroying its true form in the Immortal Realm.
As the coffin neared the eyeball, a huge arm made of flesh emerged from the dark passage, blocking the coffin’s path. The arm had bone spikes and effortlessly deflected the coffin.
The group was shocked to see the return of the giant arm. Gong Cang expressed surprise as he believed the giant hand was already destroyed. Mu Heng clarified that this hand was not the same as before.Upon closer inspection, Qin Feng pointed out the differences between the two hands—one hand’s thumb pointed right, while the other pointed left. It seemed the left hand from before and the newly emerged right hand were different.
The group was left wondering about these strange entities and whether there could be more parts to this creature.
The emergence of the giant hand caused a violent reaction in the surroundings, with winds, lightning, and flames raging as the group faced the challenges ahead.
On the body of the huge right hand, countless faces opened their mouths, and then with a sharp suction, these offensives were disintegrated and all were swallowed into the belly.
“This realm is truly a broken realm. The backlash from the heavenly laws of this realm is surprisingly feeble.” A cold voice echoed, tinged with disdain.
The strength of this giant hand, which could provoke the manifestation of Heavenly Laws and actively attack, was far greater than that of the previous hand.
Everyone present had realized this, and their expressions turned grim.
And when the eyes on the giant hand looked at them, their bodies were unable to move, and their hearts seemed to be grasped by someone!
The giant hand paid little heed to those who had not entered the transcendence realm, considering them as mere ants in its eyes.
Its true focus was on the elder of the Coffin Tomb Family who relied on the black coffin; through the visual sharing of the Heaven’s Eye, all the alien beings were aware of the elder’s Dao of life and death, which posed a deadly threat to them.
The reason it agreed to come with Heaven’s Eye was precisely to eliminate this threat at its source.
“This fellow is very strong. If it were to enter the same state as before, I can’t guarantee victory,” said the giant hand.
“If we want to prevent future troubles, we must ensure absolute certainty.” The eye responded coldly.
As they spoke, the eye gradually turned transparent, replaced by a massive eye dropping from the pitch-black void, gazing indifferently, as though it could perceive all things in the world.
The sky mutated, and the backlash of the heavenly laws appeared again. However, with just a single look from the enormous eye, the heavenly thunder, earthly fire, and fierce winds vanished instantly.
Another eerie being capable of provoking the backlash of heavenly laws!
Everyone was deeply shocked. If there were only one, the Mu Heng and their united forces could still hold their ground.
But if there were two, it would almost certainly lead to death.
To calm the troops, Qin Feng said, “Don’t panic. Reinforcements are on their way. Taking our overall strength into account, we’re not weaker than the enemy! As long as we stick together—”
Before he could finish, his voice abruptly stopped.
Qin Feng’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked towards the pitch-black void.
One, two, three…
More and more gods and demons appeared in their field of vision, each one a genuine transcendence realm!
The City God spoke in a deep voice, “These are all gods and demons who have betrayed the Heavenly Emperor and turned against him.”
In an instant, everyone felt as if they were plunged into an ice cellar.
With such a large number of gods and demons, along with the two eerie beings, the outcome of this battle seemed without question!
Even if reinforcements arrived, how would it matter? Even if all of the Great Qian humans’ transcendence realm warriors were added together, they would not match the opposing force’s numbers!
Is this the end of the world? Qin Feng’s face turned grim, and he shuddered instinctively.
Two smooth, delicate hands, one on the left and one on the right, tightly held his hands.
Qin Feng turned his head to see Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan looking at him with firm eyes.
Though they said nothing, Qin Feng understood that no matter what happened next, his two wives would stand by him, unwavering and unyielding.
“So this is the broken realm? Such feeble heavenly power.” A giant demon laughed coldly, like thunderclaps, deafening.
“When the Gods and Demons came to the world to fight, they failed for some reason. In my opinion, all the people in this world are no different from ants.” The flame dragon, engulfed in fire, spoke with disdain.
“The reason for failure was not due to the resistance of this realm, but because of the interference and compassion of the Heavenly Emperor. If he had not been reluctant to invade this realm, how could the Immortal Realm have fallen apart?” The god holding a spear spoke coldly.
The City God, hearing this, furrowed his brows in anger: “Enough! You betrayers of the Heavenly Emperor! What right do you have to speak of him?”
“If not for your betrayal back then, how would the Immortal Realm have ended up like this? How could the Heavenly Emperor have vanished?”
“Who dares speak so brashly here? It’s just a small City God.”
“A mere incarnation of creation dares to spout such arrogance?”
“The Heavenly Emperor’s incompetence is obvious. It is natural for wise birds to choose the right tree to nest in.”
“With your short-sightedness, no wonder you hide like rats in the Immortal Realm.”
“Why bother with him? Let’s just eliminate his creation of the incarnation first!”
The giant demon roared, bringing down his giant hammer.
Seeing this, the City God immediately deployed his golden light Dao principle to counter the attack.
However, there was a loud crash, and in just one encounter, the golden light barrier was shattered by the giant hammer.
One was the true form of the gods and demons, while the other was merely an incarnation of creation; the difference in strength was like heaven and earth!
“They say the City God’s golden light Dao principle is incredibly defensive, but from what I see today, it’s nothing much. A mere lackey of the weak Heavenly Emperor. Die!”
“Then die.” Another voice echoed from the depths of the red lotus sea of fire.
Boom!
Around the giant demon, terrifying flames appeared out of nowhere. In just a moment, the once arrogant giant screamed in agony and was reduced to ashes!
This sudden turn of events shocked everyone present.
“Heavenly Flame?!” the flame dragon exclaimed.
The other gods and demons reacted quickly, turning their gaze towards the red lotus sea of fire. A towering figure, with flowing fire draped over his head and stepping on crimson flames, slowly approached.
“Flame Lord!” the City God exclaimed excitedly.
The gods and demons were extremely shocked by the appearance of Flame Lord.
At the beginning of chaos, the Primordial Qi transformed all things. Among them, one spark of fire absorbed the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth for thousands of years, taking human form and becoming the Flame Lord.
With the power of Heavenly Flame, all fires in the three realms submitted to him. His strength was unmatched by many gods and demons, which explains why the Night Wandering Ghost once manifested power in a dream using the Heavenly Flame Dao principle as its ultimate weapon.
Moreover, Flame Lord was the right-hand man and most loyal supporter of the Heavenly Emperor.
A group of gods and demons mocking the Heavenly Emperor in his presence was something he could not tolerate.
The gods and demons turned to ashes as a result!
Flame Lord made a gesture with his right hand, and an ancient scroll transformed into a stream of light and landed in his hand.
He looked at Qin Feng and the others before finally fixing his gaze on the City God: “Did you awaken me?”
The City God bowed.
“How long has it been since the battle when the gods and demons descended?”
“To answer Flame Lord, it has been more than five thousand years.”
“Where is the Heavenly Emperor?”
Hearing this, the City God looked down and said, “After the battle when the gods and demons descended, the Heavenly Emperor’s whereabouts have been unknown. Besides him, many gods and demons disappeared from the Immortal Realm.”
“I see.” Flame Lord closed his eyes briefly, as if already aware of this outcome.
The City God hurriedly asked, “Flame Lord, what happened back then? Why did you leave the Immortal Realm and instead sleep here?”
Flame Lord contemplated for a moment before answering, “By the Heavenly Emperor’s command, I guarded this place.”
Hearing this, Qin Feng and the others all had changed expressions.
Could there be untold secrets behind the battle when the gods and demons descended?
Flame Lord’s reputation was too great, so the gods and demons took a step back, no longer daring to be reckless.
However, the giant hand and the large eye did not fear him. After all, it was they who once drove back the gods and demons, as well as the immortals and buddhas of the Immortal Realm.
The giant hand struck first, extending a bone arm as surging water vapor gushed forth towards Flame Lord.
Under normal circumstances, Flame Lord’s Heavenly Flame could melt everything in the world. Even though the five elements would naturally oppose one another, water would not have much effect.
However, the surging water vapor transformed into a water flood dragon that matched the Heavenly Flame.
The City God widened his eyes: “Is this the Weak Water Dao principle of the Water Lord?”
The giant hand spoke to Flame Lord coldly, “In the past, your and the Water Lord’s Dao principles gave us so much trouble. Now, you can taste the power of the Weak Water Dao principle.”
With those words, the Heavenly Flame and Weak Water erupted simultaneously.
While Flame Lord was held back by the giant hand, the gods and demons breathed a sigh of relief, their eyes turning to Qin Feng and the others with a murderous intent, eager to devour them.
‘What a group of cowards, they bully the weak and fear the strong!’ Qin Feng furrowed his brow.
‘Why aren’t Second Senior Brother and Su Tianyue here yet?’ Qin Feng grew increasingly anxious.
The flame dragon in the sky sniffed the air and then locked its gaze on Cang Feilan next to Qin Feng. “The scent of a Dragon Clan? You have a Dragon Bead on you. Very good, very good. This woman is mine, and none of you shall compete with me.
“I want to devour her body and absorb the Dragon Bead within her!”
Hearing this, Qin Feng and the others all furrowed their brows.
However, at that moment, a familiar yet aged voice echoed in the night sky: “The gods and demons of the Immortal Realm have eaten plenty, but we’ve never tasted dragons from the Immortal Realm. Today, we can indulge ourselves.”
“Immortal Realm dragons are delicious. Yes, eat quickly, eat quickly!” someone responded immediately, and the voice seemed to come from the same source.
“Who dares speak so arrogantly?!” The flame dragon roared angrily, shaking the heavens and the earth.
As soon as the words were out, a huge dragon head emerged from the night sky. It moved its long body, and in an instant, it traversed the void and swallowed the flame dragon whole.
Then the dragon’s body moved, swallowing the flame dragon from head to tail!
Qin Feng exclaimed excitedly, “Dragon Ancestor!”
The Dragon Ancestor swam towards Qin Feng and the others, its massive body continuously shrinking until it transformed into a human form and landed steadily.
A loud burp echoed as the Dragon Ancestor exhaled flames from its mouth. The once formidable flame dragon had already become the Dragon Ancestor’s meal.
“Such arrogance, and I thought it would be something extraordinary. But the taste is just so-so,” the Dragon Ancestor said casually, with a cold tone.
“Dragon Ancestor,” Cang Feilan greeted respectfully.
“You left without saying a word earlier. Everyone at home was worried. So, it turns out you came here,” Qin Feng said joyfully.
The Dragon Ancestor is a powerful ancient being capable of dueling with the Divine Guardian. His appearance boosted Qin Feng’s confidence.
At that moment the Buddha’s mouth on the Dragon Ancestor’s cheek said, “That old thing took me away, and you were obviously overjoyed because you felt the tranquility of your surroundings. You are such a hypocrite, a real hypocrite.”
Damn it! Qin Feng’s face stiffened, wishing he could tear that foul mouth apart.
The Dragon Ancestor glanced meaningfully at Qin Feng, he then raised his head to look at the vast gods and demons. He said coldly, “Only a few thousand years have passed, and you lot still haven’t learned your lesson. Are you in a hurry to die?”
The gods and demons were both shocked and angry, their expressions turning grim.
The god holding a spear frowned and shouted, “A mere being from the broken realm, you truly don’t know your place! Today, I shall tear you apart and use your bones to forge another spear!”
As soon as the words were spoken, the god raised his spear, pouring all his strength into it, causing the space around him to collapse.
Whoosh!
The spear broke through the air, moving so fast that ordinary eyes couldn’t follow its trajectory. It felt as though the sky was collapsing above them, causing the hair on their bodies to stand on end!
The Dragon Ancestor remained unfazed, standing still in place.
But before it could make a move, a towering indigo hand reached out from the void, firmly grasping the divine spear.
“Is this all the strength you have?”
