"Really? So the amount of sacred fire I can store in this fire bead is related to my current strength?"
Austin asked the fire source beast, feeling slightly overwhelmed.
"Yes. This fire bead has become your magic treasure after you refine it. So its fire-collecting capacity
depends solely on your strength,"
the fire source beast replied, nodding his head.
"In the future, when you increase your strength, you can return here and collect more sacred fire to
store in the Fire Bead.
The more sacred fire that you possess, the stronger your combat effectiveness will be,"
the fire source beast added.
"I see."
Austin nodded his head and continued to stare at his Fire Bead in awe.
Suddenly, the fire source beast spun around and his expression turned dark.
Quickly, he regained his composure and tilted his head to perceive the surrounding area.
A few seconds later, he turned back around to face Austin.
"Damn it! The Eight Fires Valley is surrounded by three horrible strangers and it looks like they've
targeted me!
Yes. I'm right. They have come for me,"
the fire source beast said, looking all around them with fear in his eyes.
"And I think they've brought other gods of chaos with them,"
the fire source beast added after further perception.
"Ha!
Now I understand why fire source beasts are considered the most ancient, sacred beasts in the
Absolute Space Sea.
You have a strong perception ability.
Our auras are all restrained as tightly as possible but you can still find us,"
a loud voice said from the outside of the Eight Fires Valley.
It was so deafening that it reminded Austin of hundreds of millions of thunderbolts exploding at once. A
chill ran down his spine.
"The voice is powerful! That must mean that he is powerful too!"
Austin exclaimed, looking at the fire source beast with shock written into his face.
As the voice rumbled around the Eight Fires Valley, Austin could feel his spiritual soul trembling and a
sense of submission washing over him.
Needless to say, the speaker had to be a top master. The idea was terrifying.
As soon as the man finished speaking,
a large amount of energy pressure rolled like giant waves against the Eight Fires Valley from all
directions.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Then, three enormous figures could be seen on the other side of the border of the Eight Fires Valley.
They were black and shrouded in endless dark energy and law of darkness.
With their appearance alone, the surrounding space and time was transformed into a dark world.
"Watch out!
I think they are the three Lords of Darkness!"
the fire source beast warned Austin.
"I think you're right.
They look like the three Lords of Darkness. Back in the day, they were as powerful as our Lords of
Reincarnation.
The only reason why the darkness race dominated the Absolute Space Sea for such a long time was
because of the existence of these three Lords of Darkness.
Austin, we are in big trouble this time.
The three Lords of Darkness are here in person and you are not ready. If they wanted, they could kill
you with a single breath.
I think you should focus on escaping, and quickly,"
Old Lady Meng said in a grave voice.
Because she was a senior from the reincarnation race, she understood plenty about the strength of the
Lords of Darkness.
"No way! The darkness race sent three Lords of Darkness to kill me in person.
They are giving me too much credit!"
Austin exclaimed, feeling a little bit scared.
The energy pressure released by the enemies outside could reach them inside which was terrifying.
"Don't worry, Austin. They are not here for you.
They are here for me.
Since they arrived, I could feel the target on my back,"
the fire source beast said, trying to reassure him.
"They're here for you?"
Austin asked, staring at the beast with wide eyes.
"Is it because you killed those demon guards of darkness? Are the three Lords of Darkness here for
revenge?"
Austin continued to question.
"No, I don't think that's why.
I only killed three demon guards of darkness. The loss would not have made a big enough impact to
call on the three Lords of Darkness.
They must have another reason for coming,"
the fire source beast replied, shaking his head.
It was said that the intelligence of a fire source beast was equivalent to a young child's,
but that was nothing but a misunderstanding.
The fire source beast was one of the most ancient beasts in the Absolute Space Sea and he was not
stupid. He was only being innocent and straightforward.
He understood all the ways of the world.
He was purely wise.
"But you need to be careful. Each of the Lords of Darkness is extremely powerful,"
Austin said, worrying that the fire source beast wouldn't be able to match their combined or separate
strength.
"Of course. They are the Lords of Darkness, after all.
Austin, I need your Fire Bead.
Then, I want you to run directly to the Fiery Eye.
I can't defeat the three of them by myself. Our only way out is through the Fiery Eye,"
the fire source beast explained with urgency in his voice.
Austin hurriedly grabbed the Fire Bead and handed it to the fire source beast.
"Run to the Fiery Eye!
There's no time to waste!
Once the Lords of Darkness enter, you will be suppressed,"
the fire source beast ordered.
The moment he was done talking, the fire source beast waved his hand and sent a message to
Austin's Soul Sea so that he could find where the Fiery Eye was located.
Once Austin received it, he used the Illusion Skill of Reincarnation and rushed towards it.
The Fiery Eye was waiting for him in the innermost part of the Eight Fires Valley.
Luckily, Austin possessed the Illusion Skill of Reincarnation. It was so brilliant that he was able to cover
more than half of the Eight Fires Valley within seconds.
"Men, enter! Go after Austin and capture him!"
Outside the Eight Fires Valley,
the three Lords of Darkness had been keeping a close eye on Austin.
One of them waved his hand and threw dozens of demon guards of darkness into the Eight Fires
Valley. They arrived a few feet behind Austin and immediately started chasing him.
"Don't let him get away!"
The dozens of demon guards of darkness present had been strictly selected for this task. They were
considered elites and even among the gods of chaos, they were still powerful.
Although they weren't as strong as the nine leaders of the Time Chamber Sect, they could easily kill the
other ordinary gods of chaos.
The demon guards of darkness gathered and stayed close on Austin's heels.
However, Austin was using the Illusion Skill of Reincarnation, so they couldn't gain any more ground on
him.
Plus, they were still inside the Eight Fires Valley.
All around them was a large amount of sacred fire
that Austin could use because he had cultivated the fire-controlling skill.
When he looked over his shoulder and saw that dozens of demon guards of darkness were chasing
him, Austin immediately activated the fire-controlling skill.
Immediately, the sacred fire in the surrounding space swept towards the demon guards of darkness like
a tsunami wave.
The demon guards of darkness were very powerful, but that didn't stop them from fearing the eight
kinds of sacred fire. They got to work resisting the fire right away.
Because of this, they couldn't chase Austin as closely.
So Austin took the opportunity to use the Illusion Skill of Reincarnation again and rush towards the
Fiery Eye. A moment later, he arrived.
"Catch him!"
the demon guards of darkness yelled murderously, not far behind.
