Finally, after passing the last ridge, they saw the Fire Pit.
At that moment, David stopped breathing.
That’s not a hole.
It is the sea.
An ocean made of fire.
Fiery red flames roared, burned, and roared at the bottom of the giant pit, covering the land for thousands of miles around.
The flames were very hot. Even standing on the ridge, tens of miles away from the edge of the cliff, David could still feel the intense heat radiating from the fire.
The color of the flame is constantly changing; dark red, yellow-orange, white-gold, and dark blue—each color represents a different temperature.
The flames in the center had turned almost transparent white, a color so intense that even light was distorted.
Something moved in the flames.
That’s the Heavenly Fire Beast.
Their bodies were formed from condensed flames and had various shapes.
Some resemble dragons, some resemble tigers, some resemble birds, and some resemble fish.
They moved through the heavenly flames, emitting mighty roars that shook the mountain peaks.
At the edge of the Tianhuo Pit, near a rocky platform on the north side, David saw two familiar figures.
Yunxi and Jiang Xuelan.
They leaned against a large rock, surrounded by a halo of ice blue light.
It was a shield formed from Jiang Xuelan’s Ice God power.
The shield continued to melt under the scorching flames, and Jiang Xuelan continued to inject new power to maintain it.
Yunxi leaned against Jiang Xuelan, her body covered in blood.
His left arm hung limp at his side, the demon sword stuck in the ground in front of him, the blade filled with cracks.
Before them stood a group of Heavenly Fire Beasts.
At least twenty.
They surrounded the ice shield, smashing their bodies against the light barrier and burning the ice surface with their flames.
The photomask was filled with dense cracks and could break at any time.
“Xier!” Yunquan’s voice trembled.
He turned his head and looked at David, his eyes full of pleading.
David remained silent.
He raised his hand, and purple chaotic power gathered in his palm.
Then, he patted Yunquan’s shoulder.
Yunquan’s body jerked violently as a gentle force pushed him back onto the ridge.
“Wait outside,” David said.
Then, he jumped into the fire pit.
A long trail of purple light stretched over the fire pit.
David didn’t use the Dragon Slayer Sword, which had been damaged by the spatial storm, and he didn’t want to increase its burden in such a place.
He simply clenched his fist, concentrated chaotic power at the tip of his fist, then threw a punch.
The first Heavenly Fire Beast pounced directly, its body resembling a giant flaming tiger, its mouth wide open, lunging at David.
David punched him in the head.
The purple fist energy collided with the heavenly flames, releasing a dazzling light.
The head of the Sky Fire Beast shattered instantly under the powerful force of chaos, turning into countless fiery sparks.
Before his body could fall, the second and third Skyfire Beasts pounced on him.
David didn’t give up.
His fists rained down on the opponent like a hurricane, each punch carrying a powerful force of chaotic energy.
The Heavenly Fire Beast was as fragile as paper before the power of chaos, one blow after another.
Wherever the purple light passed, the Heavenly Flame Beast was shattered into pieces, turning into sparks that scattered in all directions.
However, the number of Skyfire Beasts was too many.
They charged from all directions, relentless, and impossible to kill.
Wounds began to appear on David’s body. The Heavenly Fire Beast’s claws tore at his arms, its teeth dug into his shoulders, and its tail whipped at his back.
Golden blood dripped down, evaporating into a golden mist of heavenly fire.
But David didn’t stop.
His eyes fell on the rocky platform in the distance, on two familiar figures.
Yunxi felt something, looked up, and saw a purple light.
His eyes reddened.
“David”
Jiang Xuelan also raised her head, looking at the purple light that was getting closer, and the corners of her lips curled upwards slightly.
“They’ve come.”
When David was still a hundred feet away from the platform, the largest Heavenly Fire Beast appeared.
Its size was ten times larger than other fire creatures, and its body was no longer dark red but almost transparent white.
Its shape resembles a dragon, with two flaming horns on its head and two bottomless fiery holes for eyes.
The aura he had was that of a fifth level immortal.
