Chapter 624 – Gigantic Wheel of Fire

    <h4>Chapter 624 – Gigantic Wheel of Fire</h4>


    “So what exactly is the Ancient Demon Corpse?” asked Long Chen.


    “Ancient Demon is just a name for the corpse. It’s called ‘demon’ perhaps because the body belonged to an ancient master. After the master died, the corpse was refined in a ritual to be used in battle. Since its strengthes from when the owner was alive, the fact that the Ancient Demon Corpse can reach the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage and above means that he used to be a powerful master at the Heavenly Martial Realm,” exined Little Cat.


    There were many masters in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory. A long, long time ago, there were many Heavenly Martial Realm masters too, so it was very normal for the Ancient Demon Domain to have a corpse like that.


    <i>Why didn’t the Ancient Demon Domain use the Ancient Demon Corpse then? The answer is simple—it cannot be used right now. It can only be used after it has absorbed a certain amount of life force. It looks like I need to pay more attention to any updates on the Ancient Demon Corpse ...</i> Long Chen made a mental note to himself.


    As they walked, their surroundings started to change and the gray mist around them thinned greatly. The gray clouds in the sky parted to reveal a gray sky. This meant that they were far from their initial starting point.


    “If we continue like this, we will surely be able to leave this cursed ce.” With a master like Long Shan at their side, they did not need to fear the Martial Overlord after they exited.


    Long Yue and the gray-clothed teenager were both looking forward to seeing how Long Shan would do after they left.


    Long Chen was thinking about something else—Liu Yiyi’s marriage. Liu Yiyi and Long Chen had a friendship, and she was Jiang Wuya’s daughter too. She was a good girl, and when he heard that she was to be married to Zhao Danchen, all he could think was, <i>Go to hell, Zhao Danchen!</i>


    However, Long Chen did not know how much time was left until the wedding.


    He was getting anxious too.


    Everything depended on when he would make it out of this ce.


    Seven days had passed since they first found thepass. They had been following its arrow, and on this day, they suddenly sensed that the temperature was much higher than before.


    “Why is it getting hotter the longer we follow thepass? The ground is also slowly turning from gray to faint red. If we continue to walk, will it turn red?” asked the gray-clothed teenager.


    Although Long Chen kept changing directions, he had a feeling that he was walking towards a fire source.


    When Mo Xiang, who was in the Primordial Realm, smelled the aura of fire, he asked with excitement, “Big Brother, could we be walking towards somewhere with fire? If its heat can be felt from so far away, it can’t be a simple source of heat.”


    “I don’t know. Let’s hurry up and check it out,” said Long Chen.


    They continued to travel ahead, and the temperatures kept increasing. Soon, Long Chen found that the sky had turned bright red. Walking felt like stepping on a red, burning wok.


    Faint wisps of firebusted in the air, then quickly disappeared.


    “Could the exit of the Nine Spirit Purgatory be in a sea of fire?” Long Chen was in the front of the group, and thepass changed directions again. This time, it pointed southward.


    “This way.” After Long Chen pointed, thepass suddenly shattered in his hand.


    “What happened?” Long Shan and the others asked hurriedly.


    “Without thepass, doesn’t that mean we won’t get out of here?” The gray-robed teenager was the first to look crestfallen. After saving Long Shan, the Martial Overlord would no longer be a threat. He was waiting to get out of this ce, but thepass had shattered!


    “Don’t worry just yet.” Long Chen was initially shocked too, but he thought for a while and said, “We’ve already reached this ce and thepass even pointed in a specific direction just now. I’m sure we can get out. Let’s move southward now, and we should be able to reach it.”


    “I agree.” Long Yue nodded. Although Long Chen was the youngest here, he had always been mature. Much more mature than the other Long Chen.


    Hence, they walked southwards. It was already hot here, but the further south they walked, the hotter it felt. Based on this, Long Chen assumed he was going in the right direction.


    They walked for another half-day until Long Chen suddenly found himself in and engulfed in mes. Tiny wisps of fire twinkled in the air and quickly extinguished.


    Although it was hot, there was almost zero earthly Qi here, making it a more barren ce than the gray area from before. Long Chen even felt a spiraling air current here.


    “It was already extremely difficult to get out of the Nine Spirit Purgatory. Now there’s fire blocking us from the exit. With such strong mes in the way, how will we escape?” said the gray-clothed teenager when he looked at the fiery patch in front of him, feeling dejected.


    Long Yue frowned even more as the temperature rose. Even Long Shan’s gaunt face was tightly pulled. Only Long Chen looked carefree.


    They were all curious about his reaction, so they asked in disbelief, “Seventh Brother, do you have a solution?”


    “Let’s talk when we find the exit. I’m not sure,” said Long Chen.


    Finally, they found themselves before a sea of fire. When he looked up, a magnificent sight weed him. Between the red sky and ground was a gigantic wheel of fire, which spun quickly. Countless mes burned on its edges, and like an angel scattering flowers on the ground, balls of fire fell to the red, sandy ground where fire continued to burn fiercely.


    The wheel of fire was gigantic inparison to them. Long Chen was not sure if they could identify south if they walked around the wheel, so he guessed that the exit was in the fire wheel itself.


    “Grandfather, what do we do?” asked the gray-clothed teenager.


    The elderly Long Shan’s brows were deeply furrowed as he stared at the gigantic fire wheel. With a bitter smile, he said, “With my essence, I may be able to make my way to its center and check it out. If there’s an exit, it will be possible for me to get out. But with that temperature, it is not certain for you guys. I don’t think you can approach it.”


    Long Shan was actually a Fifth Earthly Martial Stage master. Although he could only use as much essence as someone at the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage, he was a knowledgeable man. If he said that their essence was not enough to help them through the fire, then it had to be true.


    “Huh?” Everyone was crestfallen. They hade to this ce after great effort, and now they couldn’t get out? Were they going to die here?


    “Grandfather, think of a way! I don’t want to stay here!” With an elder protecting him, the gray-clothed teenager put all his hopes on Long Shan.


    Long Shan was trying toe up with an idea, but the more he thought, the deeper his frown became.


    “Long Chen, what about you? What ideas do you have?” Long Yue looked at him when she recalled how he did not look worried.


    Long Chen was talking to Little Cat.


    “The center of the fire wheel must be the exit of the Nine Spirit Purgatory,” Little Cat said confidently.


    “What makes you say that?” asked Long Chen.


    “Haven’t you noticed? The earthly Qi in this ce is even thinner, but when you get closer to the center, you will find potent earthly Qi. The earthly Qi is being sucked out of the Nine Spirit Purgatory into the outside world via the fire wheel. That is the reason why this ce is a hell with no Qi.”


    “Really?” Long Chen was shocked.


    “Of course, you don’t need to worry. The fire won’t be able to stop you at all, because you’ve got that little ck dog as your brother. With him here, even ancestral fire could not stop you, let alone this beast fire,” Little Cat said wisely, rubbing his stomach.


    “Is this a type of beast fire?” Long Chen and Mo Xiang’s eyes lit up.


    “Yes. Those mes came from a beast’s corpse and bones. It has been a very long time, so I can’t tell what beast it was. Based on the size of the fire wheel, you can imagine just howrge it used to be.”


    Mo Xiang could not wait any longer, so he said, “Big Brother, since the exit is at the center of the fire wheel, let me swallow the beast fire! I can sense that this fire is much more powerful than the Blue Devil me from before!”


    Indeed, the Blue Devil me was tiny, but the beast fire was vast in terms of quantity. It was tens of thousands of timesrger.


    The more powerful a fire was, the more nourishing it would be to Xiang.


    The Sun Devouring Wolf had no limit.


    As long as he could continue to grow, he would have a bright future. In fact, he had even greater potential than Long Chen.


    Though the heights could reach depended on how much high-level fire existed in the world.


    Long Chen nodded.


    Long Yue and the others looked at him with a begging look in their eyes.


    What now?


    “Seventh Brother, do you have a way?” Long Yue asked again anxiously.


    Long Chen had told her about Jiang Wuya and Liu Yiyi, so she was probably as anxious as he was too.


    “Don’t worry. Leave it all to me. Wait for me here; I’ll go there first,” said Long Chen with a grin.


    There was still some distance between them and the fire wheel, so he sprinted straight ahead. It looked as if he intended to run into the fire.


    “What is that brat doing?” Long Yue looked puzzled.


    She did not know how powerful Xiang was.
