Chapter 1496: Fire Ocean and Cold Ocean
Led by Qiu Yu, Zhang Ruochen’s group went through slaying formation inscriptions safely and came back to Xifeng Saint Mountain beside Fire Ocean.
Fire Ocean was extremely heated, and the heat waves coming out of the ocean could actually hurt people.
They weren’t afraid of ordinary flames, but there were blue and white flames in the ocean which could completely melt a thousand patterns saint weapon of Zhang Ruochen’s.
“What kind of flame is that?” Princess White Li asked.
Qiu Yu, who was almost killed by a slaying formation, also looked scared. He said, “The fire can melt even ten thousand patterns saint weapons. There’s no way a saint can fight it.
Zhang Ruochen was very calm. “Divine Fire Jingmie.”
Princess White Li was confused. “You also tamed Divine Fire Jingmie, but it’s significantly weaker than the flames in the ocean.”
Zhang Ruochen said, “A monk can only tame the most primitive tinder. We need to keep nurturing it for it to become stronger.
“Normally, there’re three levels of Divine Fire Jinemie: Low-Mie, Middle-Mie, and Upper-Mie.”
“Low-Mie flames are blue, and they’re called ordinary flames.
“Middle-Mie flames are blue and white, and they’re called official flames.
“Upper-Mie flames are purely white, and they’re called emperor flames.
“The Divine Fire Jingmie in my body is Low-Mie flames, but those in the Fire Ocean are Middle-Mie. The gap between these two is the gap between saints and supreme saints.”
Zhang Ruochen opened a space domain, and saint Qi gushed out of his body. He stepped into Fire Ocean with a Luan and a Phoenix under his feet.
“Master…”
Princess White Li was very worried about Zhang Ruochen’s safety, so she wanted to stop him.
“All good. I’ll go have a try.” It wasn’t usual for Zhang Ruochen to run into Middle-Mie Divine Fire Jingmie, so he wanted to get a trace.
If he could do that, he could convert the Low-Mie Divine Fire in his body into Middle-Mie level, then nobody under supreme saints would be able to ward it off if he wielded it as an attack skill.
Unfortunately, Zhang Ruochen had underestimated the power of Middle-Mie Divine Fire. After staying inside for less than fifteen minutes, he ran back.
The Hundred Saints Blood Armor he was wearing was burnt red as if it were going to melt.
After putting back the Hundred Saints Blood Armor, everyone saw that Zhang Ruochen was burnt everywhere; some places were black while some were mangled.
Qiu Yu sneered seeing that.
Zhang Ruochen then grabbed Qiu Yu and threw him into Fire Ocean, and this was followed by blood-curdling screams from the flames.
Zhang Ruochen took a healing pill, and after a short while, he fully recovered.
“Middle-Mie Divine Fire is extremely powerful. We don’t stand any chance of passing Fire Ocean unless some unbelievable luck happens to us.”
Princess Luosha said, “Then we have to try Pluto Winter Cold Ocean at the other side”
Zhang Ruochen suddenly raised his head and looked to Xifeng Saint Mountain.
He saw two people descending from the top of the saint mountain and arrived in front of Zhang Ruochen.
It was Han Qiu and Demonic Sound.
Both of them were seriously injured, and they couldn’t even fully recover after taking the healing pills.
Demonic Sound said, “We were encircled by a large group of Luosha great beings, so we came here late.”
Han Qiu looked around, and eventually, she stared at Princess Luosha. “I suspect that one of us has defected to the Luosha race, and that’s how those Luosha marquises learned where we were heading to. Who do you think this person is?”
Princess Luosha wrapped her arms around Zhang Ruochen’s and said, “I’m the heir of Great Devil Ten Square Field. Anyone might defect to the Luosha race except me.”
Han Qiu looked gloomier in seeing how touchy Princess Luosha was with Zhang Ruochen. “Really? I reckon the person’s you.”
Princess Luosha looked upset and looked up at Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Don’t be rude to the Demonic Concubine. If she’d really defected to the Luosha race, we would have been killed with the power of Great Devil Ten Square Field and the Luosha race.”
Just as Han Qiu was about to argue back, Zhang Ruochen said, “Go heal yourself now.”
Qiu Yu was so pissed that she couldn’t even breathe smoothly while her eyes turned black, but in the end, she walked to another side.
Princess Luosha sneered as she now understood that as long as she could wrap Zhang Ruochen around her finger, all the other people would be under her control.
A blood-curdling voice came out of Fire Ocean again. “Zhang Ruochen, please save me. I’ll follow you no matter what.”
“Still alive? How sturdy.”
Zhang Ruoche performed spatial twist to drag Qiu Yu out of Fire Ocean and threw him on the ground fiercely.
Qiu Yu kept leading the way as they walked toward Pluto Winter Cold Ocean.
Freezing Pluto Winter Water filled Cold Ocean, but strangely, the water was still liquid.
As Zhang Ruochen walked toward the shore, he felt freezing winds attacking. He could only withstand it by mobilizing saint Qi.
Princess Luosha walked to Zhang Ruochen, took out a red boat the size of a palm and threw it back into Pluto Winter Cold Ocean.
Boom!
The red boat kept getting larger until it turned into a ship that was more than a thousand feet long.
Inscriptions emerged on the ship, turning into traces of light surging to the sky, forming a formation compass.
The formation compass kept spinning, dispelling the cold Qi.
“What a powerful ship. It’s definitely a ten thousand patterns saint weapon.”
Suddenly, Princess Luosha was dazed, as the ship started to sink until it was completely gone.
Princess Luosha tried to use her saint Qi to get the ship back, and Princess White Li and Han Qiu also helped. However, their efforts were all in vain.
“There’s no way the ship can float on the ocean…?”
“Then what’re we supposed to do? Can we get close to the Phoenix Nest at all?”
Qiu Yu was exhilarated. If Zhang Ruochen chose to opt out now, he could save his life, but he couldn’t show those emotions at all as he feared that Zhang Ruochen might throw him into the water again.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t avoid what was coming even if he stayed silent.
Zhang Ruochen looked to Qiu Yu and said, “Your original body is a divine tree. I reckon it can float on Pluto Winter Cold Ocean, can’t it?”
Qiu Yu said, “Nothing… Nothing can float on Pluto Winter Cold Ocean.”
“Well, we have to try.”
Zhang Ruochen gave Demonic Sound a look.
Demonic Sound smiled and hit Qiu Yu on his back, knocking him into Pluto Winter Cold Ocean.
Bong!
Qiu Yu immediately showed his true body, turning back into a giant Divine Phoenix Tree. His trunk, branches, and leaves were all crimson, making sizzling sounds in the water.
The mist ascended because the fire touched the water.
“Damn you, bastard! Zhang Ruochen, we’re sworn enemies, you swine!”
Qiu Yu kept cursing inside the Divine Phoenix Tree.
Qiu Yu had been an elegant guy all along, so it was no easy task to force him to swear.
After half an hour, the Divine Phoenix Tree was still floating on the ocean.
Zhang Ruochen nodded and flew to the trunk of the Divine Phoenix Tree. He took out the Abyss Ancient Sword and stuck half of it inside the tree. “You’d better not play anything, otherwise I’ll cut you in half.”
“That sword is nowhere strong enough to cut me in half,” Qiu Yu said.
It was very difficult to cut the trunk of Divine Phoenix Tree, which meant it was equally difficult to kill Qiu Yu.
Even though the Abyss Ancient Sword already had twenty thousand inscriptions, it was still an impossible task for it to cut the trunk of the Divine Phoenix Tree.
Zhang Ruochen put back the Abyss Ancient Sword and formed a space crack that was three feet long. He said, “Can I space crack cut you?”
Qiu Yu was speechless.
If the Divine Phoenix Tree could become a God, it could change the space rules to some extent, after which even space cracks couldn’t chop into the trunk.
However, Qiu Yu was far from that level still, so he couldn’t ward off a space crack.
“Damn you.”
Qiu Yu’s voice came out of the trunk.
Princess Luosha, Demonic Sound, Han Qiu, Princess White Li, and Le walked onto the Divine Phoenix Tree.
However, Zhang Ruochen didn’t rush to the Phoenix Nest. Instead, he stopped at the shore of Pluto Winter Cold Ocean and waited for the saints from other large fields to convert merits.
The shore of Pluto Winter Cold Ocean was the perfect place for both defense and offense.
If a large group of saints from a particular large field wanted to seize the Merits Record Wall, Zhang Ruochen could move farther on Pluto Winter Cold Ocean.
