"What is this?" Xun Yuhuan looked at the countless purple-red insects below, her face showing shock. The few people who had jumped down just moments ago were almost instantly devoured by these purple-red insects, without even a chance to approach the Thunderfire Temple.
"This should be the Thunderfire Insects cultivated by the Thunderfire Deity back in the day. Not only do they contain Thunderfire Power, but they also attack anyone without Thunderfire Power mercilessly," Zhen Hanhe said, frowning as he recalled the records in ancient texts. The Thunderfire Deity was not only powerful but also had considerable expertise in breeding insect beasts.
These Thunderfire Insects were clearly the ones originally cultivated by the Thunderfire Deity. If these countless insects swarmed together, they could instantly devour any person present.
Is this Thunderfire Deity really that troublesome? Even in death, he has left so many problems for us descendants.
"This challenge just keeps coming one after another. It seems that obtaining the Thunderfire Deity's Inheritance is truly not easy!" Xing Chen sighed helplessly in his heart.
The Thunderfire Deity was definitely a master at setting traps; otherwise, it would be impossible to create so many mechanisms and beasts in his Inheritance land. From the moment they discovered the Thunderfire Secret Cave to the present moment of facing the Inheritance, it had only been two or three hours, yet they had already encountered obstacles from Demonic Vines, assassination mechanisms, and now these countless Thunderfire Insects blocking their entry into the Inheritance.
In an instant, everyone felt an urge to curse.
"It looks like we won't be able to enter the Inheritance unless we deal with these Thunderfire Insects," Xun Yuhuan said darkly as she glared at the numerous insects below.
"Xun Yuhuan, it's time for your test. Whether we can enter the Inheritance depends on you," Zhen Hanhe said seriously as he looked at Xun Yuhuan.
"Right now, only your Ice Emperor's Sword can restrain these Thunderfire Insects, and you are the only one capable of eliminating them. It's all up to you now."
Upon hearing his words, anger flashed across Xun Yuhuan's face.
"Are you kidding me? With so many Thunderfire Insects, do you think I can handle them all by myself?" Xun Yuhuan shouted furiously.
“Xun Yuhuan, stop pretending over there. My understanding of your royal family is no less than your own. Your royal family's Ice Emperor Sword Technique has a move called ‘Cold Earth, Frozen Snow Spreads, One Sword Freezes Ten Thousand Miles.’ As long as you use this move, even the Magma below will be instantly frozen for a period of time. We can take this opportunity to enter the Inheritance,” Zhen Hanhe said with a sneer, looking at Xun Yuhuan.
“You…” Xun Yuhuan was furious at his words. There was indeed such a move in the Ice Emperor Sword Technique, but with Xun Yuhuan's Soul Realm Pinnacle strength, attempting to use this move would definitely result in injury due to the overload on his body.
“Xun Yuhuan, you can't hold back at this moment. It took everyone a lot of effort to bring the Thunderfire Deity's Inheritance into the open. If you back down now, don’t blame us for being rude,” Lin Yuan and Bai Jia looked at Xun Yuhuan with sinister expressions. If he dared to refuse at this moment, they would definitely seize him immediately.
“Fine, I will try using this move.” With no other choice, Xun Yuhuan had to reluctantly agree.
“That's more like it. You exert yourself now, and once we enter the Inheritance, you will surely benefit,” Zhen Hanhe smiled. However, Xun Yuhuan naturally did not believe his words and merely snorted coldly while circulating his Vital Energy into the Ice Emperor's Sword.
“Ice Emperor Sword Technique!”
At that moment, a crystalline blue light flashed in Xun Yuhuan's eyes, and a chilling aura began to slowly emanate from him. The Ice Emperor's Sword also radiated a dazzling blue light.
“Cold Earth, Frozen Snow Spreads, One Sword Freezes Ten Thousand Miles!”
Xun Yuhuan's body slowly levitated, standing in mid-air. Then he suddenly focused his gaze, and with one powerful strike, he swung the sword down towards the Magma below.
With the force of thunder, the sword struck down fiercely, instantly filling the surroundings with crystal-clear Snowflakes. A cold wind swept through the area, causing everyone to shiver in this hot cavern.
“What a powerful strike! This blow is even stronger than the Annihilation Technique used by Dantai Hongzhen back then. Moreover, with the enhancement of an Earth Grade Divine Weapon, this strike can definitely withstand a strong opponent from the Yang Spirit Realm,” Xing Chen observed Xun Yuhuan's strike with narrowed eyes and quickly assessed its power.
“No wonder it's the highest martial art of the royal family; it truly is impressive.” Zhen Hanhe also slightly narrowed his eyes. Through this strike, he had roughly gauged Xun Yuhuan's strength; possessing an Earth Grade Divine Weapon meant that Xun Yuhuan's true combat power was definitely not weaker than his own.
“Clang clang…”
At this moment, a layer of Thin Ice surrounded them, and a chilling force instantly replaced the previous heat.
"Quick, take this opportunity to enter the Inheritance."
Seeing that the Magma below and the Thunderfire Bugs were being frozen at this moment, everyone couldn't help but rush towards the Thunderfire Temple, without a single person caring about Xun Yuhuan, who was injured from the backlash of forcibly activating a secret technique.
Thunderfire Temple!
At this moment, most of the group had already arrived at the entrance of the Thunderfire Temple. Looking at the enormous palace before them, they all felt a surge of excitement within.
Gazing at the large characters spelling out Thunderfire Temple above, Xing Chen also felt a slight thrill. The Thunderfire Deity was the last powerful figure of Gaze of Fate in the Eastern Region, and his Inheritance was definitely more formidable than the Thunder True Monarch's Inheritance obtained by Yun Qing.
"Creak—"
At this time, the great door slowly opened, and countless purple-red spherical objects flew out.
"Damn..." Seeing these things, even Xing Chen couldn't help but curse. They had already been tormented enough by the Thunderfire Deity along the way, and now they were facing an assassination attempt right before entering.
Watching the purple-red spheres flying towards him, Xing Chen immediately used Shadow Shift to dodge to the side, leaving only an afterimage behind. Those who couldn't evade in time were struck by the spheres, instantly covered in lightning and flames, burning to death in endless agony.
Watching all this unfold, Xing Chen's mouth twitched slightly as he became even more certain of how much the Thunderfire Deity enjoyed tormenting others during his lifetime.
At this moment, Xun Yuhuan also arrived here. Seeing everyone's miserable state, a smile finally appeared on his face. What is retribution? This is retribution!
"Whoosh!"
Just as everyone was cursing in anger, a purple-red light suddenly enveloped them all and dragged them into the Thunderfire Temple.
Inside the Thunderfire Temple, everyone abruptly appeared in a room. There was nothing precious in this room, nor any traps or mechanisms; there was only a table, two chairs, and beside them stood a giant purple-red coffin, which presumably housed the body of the Thunderfire Deity.
"Damn it, what trap is this again?" an angry voice echoed in the room. Clearly, everyone had regained their senses and was looking around to see what trap they had fallen into this time.
Xing Chen also came back to his senses at this moment. Looking at the surroundings, he shook his head and walked over to the table to take a look but found nothing unusual.
"Kid, it's best not to move around. If you trigger any mechanisms, I won't let you off," one person stood up and glared at Xing Chen, clearly frightened by the series of traps set by the Thunderfire Deity.
"Hmph..." A cold smile appeared on Xing Chen's face. These rascals probably didn't know that Meng Xiner had already released a deadly poison as soon as they arrived here.
Of course, this wasn't because Meng Xiner was more alert than them; it was instinctual. Suddenly appearing in such a strange place made Meng Xiner instinctively release Soul Binding Poison. Fortunately, Xing Chen possessed the Venomous Pearl from the Venomous Giant Scorpion, so he wasn't affected; otherwise, he would have been in trouble too.
Xing Chen approached the giant purple-red coffin and gently knocked on it before opening the lid. Contrary to expectations, the body of the Thunderfire Deity did not appear, nor were there any traps; this purple-red coffin was actually a door leading to another room, merely designed this way by the Thunderfire Deity.
"Don't waste time with them here; let's go quickly," Xing Chen said lightly as he glanced at Meng Xiner.
Meng Xiner smiled slightly and then got up to walk towards Xing Chen. At that moment, the others also attempted to get up and leave, but they found that they didn't even have the strength to move.
"What did you do to us?" The expressions of everyone changed slightly, and Xun Yuhuan questioned sternly.
"I didn't do anything; you should ask her," Xing Chen pointed at Meng Xiner.
"Let's go; we need to find the Thunderfire Deity's Inheritance!" Meng Xiner stepped forward and smiled at Xing Chen.
"Child, I will not let you go. I will tear you into a thousand pieces!"
"You despicable brat, once I recover, I will make you experience the most painful things in the world before you die."
Watching Xing Chen leave, curses continued to be heard.
"The true Inheritance of the Thunderfire Deity must be at the very bottom of the palace, where the thunder and fire are most intense. The corpse of the Thunderfire Deity and the Inheritance must also be there," Meng Xiner said with a smile as she looked at Xing Chen.
"Why didn't you kill those people just now?" Xing Chen asked, looking at Meng Xiner with some confusion.
Just now, Xun Yuhuan and the others were poisoned by Meng Xiner and had no power to resist; it would have been easy to kill them.
"Although they were poisoned by me, they still have some resistance. If we push them too hard, we definitely won't benefit from it. Besides, a Soul Realm Expert can draw on the power of the earth; even with Earth's Power from the Earth Soul Realm, we might not be able to handle it," Meng Xiner replied.
She certainly wanted to kill those people, but if they were pushed too hard, she would not gain any advantage either.
