Chapter 269: Angry
At that moment, the look in the vertical eyes showed uneasiness. It could feel that something terrible was approaching it, so it erupted with almost hysterical power.
The feeling that the power that seemed to be illusory is almost real.
An and Zhu were blown away from the pillars to the left and right. Shi Chun's situation was not much better. He was flipped in the air and the copper and iron rain exploded when they hit him.
But the strange and reverse patterns of that palm strike finally hit the vertical eye.
The stronger the power of the explosion, the greater the resistance, the finer and more numerous the patterns derived from the wave of strange and reverse patterns seem to be, and they penetrate into the core with the force of a palm.
The vertical eye was frightened at first, then the pupil became disordered, the whole vertical eye suddenly expanded, then contracted, and finally collapsed, and suddenly disintegrated in a twisted way.
Boom! Countless fragments of starlight burst out.
The raging flames that had been released and filled all directions also lost their ability to expand in an instant, and were quickly withdrawn from every corner like breathing, retreating like a tide, all gathering into this underground space and returning to the White Fire Original Body on the pillar platform.
At this moment, countless shattered starlights are falling in this space like a rain of flowers, beautiful and moving.
Zhu and An, who were bounced away, clung to the melted wall, looked around at the scene, and reached out to touch the sparse starlight, but they could not feel it. It passed through their bodies, and it was a substance between illusion and reality.
What was released seemed to be the energy from Baihuo's body. Baihuo's body quickly shrank to about one foot in height, floating and escaping towards the hole in the wall.
Although he lost his eyes, his intelligence was clearly still there.
How could Shi Chun, who had already pounced down again, let it escape? He pounced on it immediately.
After Zhu and An reacted, they were not far behind and quickly rushed over to try to stop the attack.
A flame had lost its power and its flying speed was no match for the three cultivators. Before Zhu and An could intervene, Shi Chun, who was chasing after it, grabbed it from a distance.
Zhu and An were surprised when they saw it. Could it be that the boss also knew how to control fire?
Little did they know that it was just a cloud of invisible green mist that locked the white divine fire.
Shi Chun stepped on the melted cave wall and flew up again, carrying the struggling divine fire back to the top of the pillar.
Zhu and An quickly followed and flew up. Their eyes showed both desire to see the divine fire and awe towards Shi Chun. They had witnessed with their own eyes how the boss defeated Mulan and Qingqing in those days. Today, seeing the boss display such ability again, they were filled with awe.
In the areas they are familiar with, the boss is not inferior to them!
However, Shi Chun looked at the two with anger in his eyes. He was almost killed by this pair of bastards. It would be strange if he was not furious. He scolded them in person: "Who promised me that you could take it? You are greedy and incompetent. Do you know that Chu Jingtang and others were almost killed by you?"
He was able to say this because his right eye had the special ability to discover that Chu Jingtang and others were still alive.
The two of them were suddenly so embarrassed that they both lowered their heads and whimpered, not knowing what to say.
However, the temptation of the divine fire was still great, and the two of them looked at the divine fire from time to time. Finally, An Wuzhi tried to ask, "Boss, what should we do with this divine fire?"
Shi Chun asked in return: "What is the name of this divine fire?"
An Wuzhi said: "Seeing it absorb the scattered starlight in this metal space, and it is white, this divine fire is very likely to be golden flame."
Shi Chun was puzzled. "Golden flame? The golden gold?"
Hearing that he didn't understand, Zhu Xiangxin hurriedly explained: "Yes, it's the golden color, Jinyan. The boss may think it's a bit strange to call him this because he is not golden. In fact, this is the five elements of fire in the divine fire. The gold in gold, wood, water, fire and earth is actually white in color. Tong Mingshan also absorbed the five elements of fire before."
After hearing this, Shi Chun understood, and holding the fire in his palm, he said, "There is only one divine fire, but there are two of you, so I can only give it to one. Who should I give it to?"
Both of them wanted to tell me, but they were so confused that it was difficult to say it out loud.
Shi Chun asked again: "Is it you who has the final say, or is it me?"
"The boss has the final say."
"Listen to the boss."
Both of them rushed to express their opinions, but in their hearts they still hoped to give it to themselves.
Shi Chun was too lazy to talk nonsense with these two bastards, and stretched out the fire in his palm directly towards Zhu Xiangxin, "Take it."
Zhu Xiangxin was so overjoyed that she almost knelt down and kowtowed to express her gratitude on the spot. Even if she was asked to marry him now, she would be willing to do so.
Of course, even if this was not the case, she would still be willing to marry him. She had been in love with Shi Chun since she came out of prison. However, she knew that she was plain-looking and Lan'er was so pretty, so she probably knew that she would never get the chance to marry a man like him, so she could only keep her feelings to herself.
At this moment, he was so excited that he stammered, "Thank you, Boss, for your help. Xiang Xin will obey your orders."
Then use both hands to catch it.
The disappointment in An Wuzhi's eyes was obvious, but he didn't know what to say. He had just said in person that he would follow the arrangements. But soon his eyes lit up again.
Because the divine fire that Shi Chun handed out was taken back.
Zhu Xiangxin's hands caught nothing and he felt a pang in his heart.
Shi Chun said with a gloomy face, "Some things need to be made clear first. Zhu Xiangxin, if you dare to fool me again, I will kill you! Let me ask you, are you sure that after you get this divine fire, your cultivation method can absorb it? If not, don't waste it. This is something that almost cost several lives. Don't be greedy and brainless like me."
Zhu Xiangxin patted his chest and assured, "Boss, I swear to heaven that I can absorb it. I will definitely absorb it. There will be absolutely no problem. If I tell even a single lie, I will be punished by heaven!"
"It's useless to swear to anyone. I've already suffered a loss once because of someone who dared to gamble his life to get the sacred fire. If I trust you again, I'll deserve to die!" Shi Chun couldn't help but curse. Even now, he still feels scared when he thinks about the previous situation. Who can understand that despair?
He turned around and looked at An Wuzhi, "Tell me, do you think she can absorb it successfully?"
An Wuzhi naturally wanted to say no, but there were some lies that he couldn't tell. There were too many people here who knew fire-based skills, and he would find out just by asking around.
Zhu Xiangxin suddenly became nervous, she didn't expect Shi Chun to do this, it was really amazing that she actually let her competitor confirm her words.
She looked at An Wuzhi eagerly, because she was really afraid that he would mess things up. Of course, she knew that he wanted it too. After An Wuzhi's Adam's apple moved again and again, although he was reluctant, he still had to tell the truth, "The power of the divine fire has been dispersed. Even if it takes another ten years, it will be difficult to recover a little. It is not difficult to control it. Anyone who knows the fire-type skills and can suppress it should be able to absorb it. It's just a matter of how long it takes to absorb it. She should be able to do it!"
After saying this, I felt like a deflated ball.
Zhu Xiangxin didn't say anything and immediately bowed to express his gratitude.
Only then did Shi Chun feel relieved. Of course, he was still cursing in his heart. It was originally a very simple matter, but he was forced to make it so complicated.
In the end, the divine fire was handed to Zhu Xiangxin.
After Zhu Xiangxin successfully received it, he was so happy that he cried. He bowed to Shi Chun repeatedly to express his gratitude, "Thank you, Boss. Thank you for your help!"
At this moment it feels like a dream, I am so excited that tears are streaming and I am shaking with excitement.
I thought being expelled from the sect would be terrible, but who would have thought that I could enter the Divine Fire Realm and obtain the Divine Fire that alchemists dream of.
She knew very well that after absorbing this thing, she would have a divine weapon in her hands, and her future life would enter another awe-inspiring realm.
I couldn't believe it, and even after I got it I still couldn't believe it.
Shi Chun said: "Although I have given you the things, I have to make it clear. Remember, before leaving the Divine Fire Region, unless it is absolutely necessary and without my order, you must not easily reveal the fact that you have absorbed the Divine Fire, especially not to let the Four Ding Sect know."
Although he couldn't figure out what the boss was going to do, Zhu Xiangxin could definitely understand that there must be some plan behind this. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, boss. Xiangxin will remember it."
Now he is completely obedient.
Shi Chun looked at the listless An Wuzhi again, "Okay, she's a woman, you as a man should give her up first. There's still a lot of time ahead, I won't forget you, I'll consider it when the time is right."
Zhu Xiangxin wiped away his tears and quickly comforted him: "Brother An, don't worry, with the boss here, there will definitely be a chance. If there is another chance, it will definitely be yours."
Shi Chun said coldly, "Do you have the final say?"
At this moment, he spoke with anger, there was nothing he could do as he was still frightened by what had happened before and still disliked these two bitches.
"Uh..." Zhu Xiangxin quickly shut up, sincerely convinced. Not only did he say it out loud, but he didn't even dare to have any opinion in his heart. He lowered his head and looked submissive, fearing that someone would find out something was wrong and cause him to lose everything.
Inside the cave, Chu Jingtang and the others, facing the blazing flames, stood at a distance, sighing and not daring to get close.
After turning several roads, they were all blocked by fire. I didn't know what was happening to Shi Chun and the others, but there was no way to move forward.
"Is this situation over?" Chen Wuji smiled bitterly.
Haoji: "Not necessarily. The fire is still burning, which can also be interpreted as the confrontation inside is not over yet."
There is some truth in this.
Chu Jingtang suddenly raised his hand to stop talking, and listened attentively. After a while, he asked, "Did you hear anything? I seemed to hear a fight just now."
Haoji: “Is there?”
Chen Wuji: "It seemed like there was a bang. I heard it too, but it might not be the sound of a fight. It could also be the sound of the flames burning and exploding when something happened."
As soon as these words fell, the three of them were startled, and saw the wall of fire in front of them suddenly retreat like a tide, and soon disappeared without a trace, making the three of them feel as if they were trapped in darkness.
Of course, the so-called darkness is just a contrast, just a contrast to the strong white light just now. The iron liquid in the hole ahead is still dripping, and the metal is still glowing red.
They still didn't dare to intrude, and were suspicious and discussing what was going on, worried that the end of the fire would really be some kind of end.
To be honest, if Shi Chun was no longer there to suppress them, they would not plan to take risks again. Even if it was Wu Jinliang's order, they would not listen.
They were all elite disciples of their respective sects and would not easily obey orders from others.
Without Shi Chun, Wu Jinliang had no ruling power or prestige for them. They did not deny Wu Jinliang's ability, but they could feel that Wu Jinliang could not bring the sense of direction that Shi Chun had.
It was a feeling that was hard to describe. Although they sometimes felt that the boss was talking nonsense, they would not express much resistance. They were afraid of being punished, so they would continue to follow him in the end.
I don’t feel it at normal times, but once I have to change people, it will awaken the contrast that I already know in my heart.
Without Shi Chun, they would definitely run back to the exit and wait until the cave entrance opens again before going out. They believed that they could not gain any benefit from the opportunities here.
However, after the metal cave wall cooled down a little, they continued to search deeper. They were afraid that Shi Chun was still alive, but they did not show it because it would be embarrassing if they were discovered. Based on their original impression, they groped their way towards the underground space.
When they were halfway there, they suddenly saw a light ahead. The three of them were startled and stopped, looking puzzled.
Soon, seeing Shi Chun and the other two appearing unharmed, and seeing the divine fire controlled by Zhu Xiangxin, Chu Jingtang and the other two felt relieved and quickly ran forward to greet them.
"Boss, are you okay?" Chen Wuji was really concerned. In fact, he was curious. How did you avoid the power of the divine fire while being within the burning range of the divine fire?
Before, the three of them had hoped that Shi Chun had also escaped from the burning range of the divine fire and had simply lost his way. Who would have thought that they would actually see the boss coming out of the area filled with divine fire? How could they not be shocked?
Shi Chun said calmly, "It's okay, you guys run pretty fast."
They indeed ran faster than him. His cultivation had just broken through to the upper level of high martial arts not long ago, while these few were old high martial arts masters. There were also differences in the levels of cultivation at the same level.
The three laughed dryly, and Haoji sighed, "Luckily I ran fast, if I had run slower I would have been dead. Damn, it was too thrilling, luckily I spread so much white ash before, otherwise if I had run into a dead end, I would have been dead."
Who says Shi Chun doesn’t understand this deeply?
Chu Jingtang was furious at An and Zhu. "What the hell are you two doing? You didn't have the confidence to control it, and you didn't even say hello first, so that we could stay away from them. Is that how you play? Boss, if they do this again, we won't be able to work with them anymore. Even if they don't burn to death, they will be scared to death. This is so selfish that even my beautiful beard has been singed!"
