Chapter 1538:I Wish…

Translator: Atlas Studios | Editor: Atlas Studios

This bone cauldron was formed from the bones of Erniu’s second life. It was refined by the Immortal Art Great Emperor back then. Its might was terrifying and it used greed to refine everything.

At that moment, the hand formed by countless blue worms broke out of the sea. As the large waves churned, it directly landed on the sarcoma where

Nether Flame was.

Nether Flame was sitting cross-legged in the sarcoma. He looked calm but in reality, only he understood how vast this body was and how difficult it was to completely control it.

On one hand, this difficulty came from the karma of the body. On the other hand… it was the restriction left behind by Old Master Seventh!

Although he had suppressed this restriction, in reality, he had only barely reached a balance.

At that moment, he couldn’t completely control this body!

The instant a cold glint flashed in his eyes, the lid of the huge bone cauldron that was rapidly approaching opened, enveloping the sarcoma and ruthlessly suppressing it.

“Refine!!”

Deep roars rang out from the mouths of the countless blue worms at the same

time.

A shocking sound rang out and the large hand formed by the blue worms also disintegrated at this moment, turning into a sea of worms that surrounded the bone cauldron and rotated rapidly.

Its aura was imposing and earth-shattering, forming a blue vortex in the sky.

Moreover, as they spun crazily, these worms each exhaled extreme cold air.

The cold air surged toward the bone cauldron but it didn’t freeze. Instead, it transformed into ice flames that fused into the cauldron and began to refine the sarcoma.

Booming sounds instantly filled the sky.

Erniu didn’t dare to be careless. All his energy was focused in controlling and augmenting the bone cauldron, refining it recklessly. However, he was also clear that the possibility of success in the end wasn’t high.

After all, that was Great Emperor Nether Flame.

However, at this critical moment, buying time was the best choice.

He wanted to give the Empress and Xu Qing enough time.

This allowed the Empress to arrive as soon as possible and allowed Xu (ling to have a chance to unleash his remaining trump cards.

Hence, he went all out.

Amidst the continuous rumbling, the vortex sea formed by the blue worm spun faster, causing the refinement to continue to grow more intense.

The Empress also saw these scenes. Her expression was gloomy and the golden light in Her body flickered, distorting the surroundings and blurring the void, as though She wanted to forcefully break through everything.

The expression of the Demon Feather Great Emperor, who was fighting with

Her, changed. Seeing the divine majesty of the Empress at this moment, he had the thought of retreating.. However, determination appeared in the eyes of the Nether Flame avatar beside him. With a sway of its body, it transformed into a black lotus flower.

Black flames rose and enveloped everything. At the same time, they also completely sealed the fragmented space.

In an instant, the place they were at was completely blurry and couldn’t be seen clearly. There was only a rumbling sound that resonated with the sound of the cauldron.

Xu Qing also took this opportunity to complete the final possession of the

Great Emperor’s body.

The outside world was extremely chaotic. Inside the bone cauldron, flames were burning fiercely.

The sarcoma was burning and the essence from the various Rulers began to

boil.

Nether Flame, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes and revealed a gloomy glint.

This was the first time he had miscalculated.

A small cultivator whom he didn’t value much actually interfered at such a crucial moment.

“What makes me surprised is that 1 didn’t sense any clues from this person, didn’t see his foundation, and didn’t sense the existence of the bone cauldron…” “Either someone is interfering with me, or… there’s a huge issue with this person.”

“Interesting. This pair of fellow disciples is so extraordinary.”

“Then their master…”

Great Emperor Nether Flame narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly.

Even if some accidents happened, he was still confident that he could suppress

everything.

-I’ve been preparing for this new life for a long time. Moreover, this cultivation

site doesn’t come from Wanggu.”

“With this cultivation site around, the outside world can’t disturb me at all.

“Although 1 changed my plan at the last minute because I saw this body… everything is still under my control.

Nether Flame was calm. Facing the refining power at that moment, he took a deep breath. In an instant, the liquid surrounding his body decreased by more than thirty percent. Then, he exhaled gently.

Immediately, a second black lotus flower appeared above his head, emitting terrifying black flames. A large number of iron chains spread out and coiled around the one under him.

They rotated together, causing the iron chains to penetrate the sarcoma and bombard the bone cauldron from the inside.

Accompanied by endless black flames, it suppressed the ice flames.

The appearance of the two black lotuses also caused Nether Flame’s aura to skyrocket again. As he refined the ice flames that were trying to suppress him, he resisted Old Master Seventh’s restrictions while extinguishing the candle on his back.

It allowed the balance that had been broken previously to return.

“This cauldron also has benefits. It can help me block other interferences to a greater extent, allowing me to have more time to grasp this body.” “I should be able to grasp most of its strength in an hour at most. At that time…”

Nether Flame opened his eyes, and a hint of purple flashed in the depths of his

eyes.

At the next instant, his pupils suddenly contracted.

“There’s purple light in my eyes?”

Nether Flame’s heart sank. To an almighty like him, the unknown represented accidents and variables. This was the second time he was surprised.

Just as Nether Flame’s mind trembled, more purple light uncontrollably erupted from his body. The instant it spread throughout his body, the source was revealed.

The source was in the flesh on his chest.

There was something that Great Emperor Nether Flame couldn’t sense

previously.

It was a purple crystal!

The instant he sensed this crystal through the source, Great Emperor Nether

Flame’s expression changed drastically.

What caused his emotions to fluctuate was that this item was actually beyond his understanding!

in the previous deduction, he didn’t sense the existence of this item. In fact, after the possession, although the purple crystal was clearly in his body, he actually didn’t sense it at all until it emitted purple light.

It was as though the level of this item had exceeded his imagination.

If it didn’t want you to sense it, you would never be able to sense it.

Such an accident caused his heart to tremble even more than Erniu’s appearance earlier.

Moreover, there seemed to be a faceless black shadow sitting cross-legged inside the purple crystal, as though it was just a shadow.

Almost at the instant he looked over, the shadow opened its eyes.

At the next instant, the purple crystal seemed to be activated and a monstrous light erupted, forming a sea of light that suddenly covered all the areas of his body and Nether Flame’s soul.

After going into seclusion, this was the first time in the past thousand years Nether Flame experienced a loss of control, feeling an intense life-or-death crisis.

His breathing became hurried.

“This thing isn’t within my range!”

“What is it!!”

Uneasiness erupted in Nether Flame’s heart. He didn’t hesitate at all and immediately tried to seal the purple crystal with all his might.

However, the spread of this purple light brought an impact beyond the light itself; it also activated Old Master Seventh’s restriction.

Nether Flame’s suppression on the restriction immediately collapsed.

The candle on his back burned again.

Even Erniu’s bone cauldron erupted more intensely under the purple light. Nether Flame was horrified. He suddenly opened his mouth and absorbed with all his might, absorbing the remaining seventy percent of the essence in the sarcoma in one go. He borrowed this majestic power to resist with all his might.

He gritted his teeth fiercely and the soul in his body suddenly fluctuated as he took out an item he had hidden there, an object as vital to him as his life.

This item was his greatest secret.

As his soul flickered, a golden light appeared.

It was a drop of water.

A drop of golden water.

Precisely speaking, it was a drop of golden river water.

The instant this drop of water appeared, a vast golden river manifested in Nether Flame’s soul.

“Mother River…”

Nether Flame called out.

As his voice echoed, outside the Demon Feather Holy Land, outside the Wanggu, in the endless starry sky, in the north of the ninth star ring…

There was a boundless golden river.

Countless stars could be seen in this river. One could see all living beings and lotuses.

Countless figures were sitting on those lotuses. There were nonhumans, humans, cultivators, and gods…

At that moment, one of the human-looking cultivators suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a sharp glint as he looked at the starry sky.

After that, he stood up and bowed to the long river.

“Mother River, one of the pawns sent to the land of Desolate has sent out a

distress signal.”

The river water fluctuated. After a long time, a trace of an indescribably terrifying vast will revived in the river.

Although it was only a trace, it affected the billions of stars in the river, causing the hearts of all living beings here to palpitate and tremble.

“It isn’t time yet…”

When the cultivator heard this, he lowered his head and sat down again, muttering.

“Then, let him fend for himself with the drop of Mother River’s water.”

in the place where Nether Flame was in seclusion, no one else could sense what was happening in the cauldron.

Only Xu Qing could sense it with his connection with the purple crystal.

This was Xu Qing’s arrangement!

Before leaving his body, he activated Old Master Seventh’s first layer of restrictions and removed the seal on the candle, allowing the restrictions to erupt and the candle to ignite.

This would affect Nether Flame.

At the same time, he didn’t take the purple crystal!

Instead, he left it in his body and put Little Shadow inside as well, so that at the critical moment, it would unleash the power of the purple crystal.

As for what the outcome would be, he couldn’t judge.

However, on Xu Qing’s journey till now, he had discovered something. That was… it seemed that other than him, no one he met had sensed his purple crystal at all.

Old Master Seventh, the Empress, and even the old man from the fifth star ring didn’t sense it.]

Hence, in this desperate situation, Xu Qing chose an even more desperate path.

He didn’t care about the outcome.

According to his plan, the moment the purple crystal erupted would be the time he launched the last part of this plan.

Once this part of the plan was launched, if Nether Flame sensed it, he would definitely come and stop it. The other party wouldn’t allow him to do this.

And he couldn’t be disturbed.

That was why there was the meaning of the purple crystal’s activation.

It was to stall Nether Flame!

At the thought of this, Xu Qing sensed his current body.

The feeling this body gave him was that it contained an incomparably dense and terrifying origin. However, he felt like a mortal child wearing a thousand-kilogram armor.

He couldn’t control it.

Moreover, this body had a significant issue; it seemed to have been forcibly balanced and sustained in the past. Now that balance was broken…

The support was gone.

It began to collapse and wither.

“But it’s enough…”

Xu Qing mumbled as determination appeared in his eyes. His voice was hoarse as he transmitted his divine sense.

“I wish…”

At the next instant, a strange mask silently passed through all the barriers, the void, and spacetime, appearing in front of Xu Qing.

It was as though it had been waiting.

It stared at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing looked at it.

“I wish to use this body as nutrients to reconstruct my body!”
