Eternal Sacred King - Chapter 2203

2203 Ridiculous Joke

The space around the scarlet stone was distorted from the heat!

The temperature was way too high!

Su Zimo’s green robes had already turned into ashes and his body was shrouded by raging flames that burned the Green Lotus True Body continuously!

There were layers of lava in the depths of the volcano.

Due to the existence of the Mars Stone, the space at the bottom of the volcano was distorted and blurry. Therefore, many cultivators in the square could not see what was going on inside.

Everyone could only vaguely see a figure advancing with difficulty in the depths of the volcano, approaching a gigantic ball of flames!

Feng Yin, Tai Hua and the others had already arrived above the volcano.

After they arrived at the teleportation formation, they did not stop and ascended to Level 2, surpassing Su Zimo once more in terms of ranking.

However, at that moment, most of the cultivators in the square were focused on the figure in the depths of the volcano.

The Mars Stone was the foundation of Level 1.

The power of all living beings in Level 1 such as the Lava Giants and Fire Sparrows came from this Mars Stone.

In other words, the power of the Mars Stone far surpassed the Lava Giants and Fire Sparrows!

Perfected Immortal Xie Ling frowned slightly. “What’s that lad trying to do? Is he going to give up his life for this Mars Stone?”

In the depths of the volcano.

Su Zimo had a pained expression and felt that the flames were extremely powerful and damaging, as though they wanted to seep into his organs and burn him to ashes!

Even with the bloodline of Perfected Immortal Green Lotus, he could not withstand it at this moment.

Under the invasion of such a terrifying external force, the bloodline of the Green Lotus True Body began to circulate on its own.

The closer he was to the Mars Stone, the faster his bloodline circulated.

At that time, before he could touch the Mars Stone, the aura of the Green Lotus True Body might not be able to conceal itself and burst forth.

Actually, if not for the fact that he could not use his Dharmic treasures in the Nine Heavens, Su Zimo would have been able to devour the Mars Stone with the Hell Suppression Tripod.

However, once a Dharmic treasure was summoned here, it would definitely be sensed by the Heaven and Earth laws and he would be killed.

There was no need to take that risk.

However, he was bent on getting his hands on the Mars Stone before him!

The Southern Mingli Fire on his body was suppressed by the flames of the Mars Stone and was about to extinguish.

Su Zimo conjured hand seals repeatedly and three balls of terrifying flames appeared beside him.

The Immortal, Buddhist and Fiend Dao Fires!

The three balls of flames circled around him and fought against the flames released by the Mars Stone!

Although they were both flames, the power of the two flames could not fuse.

With the four flames, Su Zimo was getting closer to the Mars Stone and it was within reach!

When he saw that, Xie Qingcheng looked worried and murmured, “Brother Su, your decision is way too risky. It’s not worth it.”

“What is risky about it? The Mars Stone?”

Xu Xiaotian could vaguely tell that Xie Qingcheng was implying something and asked out of concern.

“It’s not just the Mars Stone,”

Xie Qingcheng said sternly, “Su Zimo’s actions will affect his upcoming fight for the Earth Ranking. He might even lose his life or be unable to enter the final ranking battle!”

“Is it that serious?”

Xu Xiaotian was shocked.

Xie Qingcheng asked instead, “In the Nine Heavens elimination round, do you know what is truly being tested?”

“Who can reach Level 5 in the shortest time with their combat strength?”

Xu Xiaotian said naturally. Over the past few days, he had also gained some knowledge about the Earth Ranking.

Xie Qingcheng shook his head. “That’s only on the surface. The Nine Heavens elimination round is not only a test of combat strength, but also of one’s judgment of the situation, consumption of Essence Qi, control of time, decisiveness in releasing methods and so on.”

Xu Xiaotian was at a loss.

Xie Qingcheng said, “Have you noticed that although powerful paragons like Feng Yin and Tai Hua encountered some obstacles along the way after entering the Nine Heavens, they did not reveal many methods?”

Xu Xiaotian nodded.

Feng Yin, Tai Hua and the other paragons and monster incarnates merely used a few divine powers and secret skills to get through Level 1.

Xie Qingcheng said, “The reason why they held back was so that they could pass through the next four levels easier.”

“However, Brother Su released such a powerful flame immortal art secret skill in advance. If he encounters any other danger later on, he won’t be able to use this secret skill.”

Xu Xiaotian understood.

For a secret skill as powerful as this, it required a relatively long time to recover and took a huge toll on the Essence Spirit and Essence Qi.

But now that Su Zimo released this secret skill in advance, it would have a huge impact on his future!

“Fufu.”

When Prince Yuan Zuo saw Feng Yin, Tai Hua and the others surpass Su Zimo once more, he heaved a sigh of relief and sneered, “As expected of an ant that ascended from the lower worlds. You don’t have much knowledge and want to take all the treasures you see for yourself. Why don’t you take a look at your own capabilities?!”

“If I’m not wrong, the stone in the depths of the volcano should be the Mars Stone,”

Heaven Immortal White Sea waved his folding fan gently and said, “The value of the Mars Stone is comparable to a sentient Dharmic treasure. It’s definitely the foundation of Level 1. This lad doesn’t know his limits at all and wants to remove the entire foundation of Level 1. What a joke, how utterly ridiculous!”

There was indeed such a rule in the Nine Heavens that the treasures within were opportunities. As long as cultivators could obtain them, they could keep them.

However, even if no one from the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom said anything, everyone could guess that the Mars Stone was definitely not among them!

Who would leave a treasure comparable to a sentient Dharmic treasure for an Earth Immortal?

Perfected Immortal Xie Ling smiled as well and said, “It’s fine. When he sees that things won’t work out later on, he’ll naturally retreat in the face of difficulties. The Mars Stone has already nurtured a spirit consciousness in the Nine Heavens and no one can take it away.”

Right then, a change happened in the depths of the volcano!

The floating Mars Stone seemed to have sensed Su Zimo approaching and suddenly released a shocking power!

A gigantic flame spewed out and transformed around him rapidly, turning into a gigantic Soaring Serpent. Flapping its flaming wings, it descended from the skies and devoured towards Su Zimo!

Su Zimo’s gaze intensified. Without dodging or avoiding, he guided his hands in midair and gathered the four balls of flames around him.

At the same time, a spirit consciousness flame was released from his glabella and entered the four balls of flames.

An even more terrifying flame was formed!

The Pancadhi Dao Fire burst forth!

“What immense strength!”

Perfected Immortal Xie Ling’s eyes lit up and his expression changed slightly as he exclaimed softly.

Boom!

Su Zimo smashed the Pancadhi Dao Fire towards the Soaring Serpent that was charging over. With a loud bang, the entire volcano shook and swayed.

The surrounding space became even more distorted and everyone’s vision turned blurry.

Among the cultivators in the square, only Heaven Immortal experts could vaguely see the situation inside.

Su Zimo took advantage of the moment when the Pancadhi Dao Fire collided with the Soaring Serpent to take a step forward and extend his arm to grab the Mars Stone!
