Chapter 342 - Purple Flame Pill Furnace (1/2)

Repugnant Gateway Zhi Bai 53820K 2022-07-22

An Zheng felt that his entire body was about to melt, the heat was not something his body could withstand. Even though he had experienced the lightning pool in the secret realm, even though he could withstand the four gravitational forces of the lightning pool, he still could not withstand the purple flames. For a few seconds, An Zheng thought that he was going to die. But every time An Zheng felt that he had reached that kind of limit, his body would miraculously be able to endure it.

Then, An Zheng suddenly realized that he had experienced this purple fire's test.

On that day, he destroyed the Depressing Sword from the restaurant and slaughtered his way back to Heavenly Awakening Sect. As he was severely injured, he could not be treated.

After he understood everything, An Zheng's heart slightly relaxed.

In this world, there was always luck that others could not understand. Maybe it was a debt he owed An Zheng in his previous life, or maybe it was something he had decided for himself. An Zheng had experienced a baptism of lightning within the lightning pool and purple fire within the Phoenix Cooking Pill Furnace. Now that he was in Inside the Immortal Palace, he had encountered both dangers. First, it was the purple lightning from the Dragon Lion, but now, for some inexplicable reason, it had entered a huge pill furnace.

”Why?”

Maybe it was because he had been roasted for a long time, but An Zheng still had not turned intill.

An Zheng's body, on the other hand, had gradually gotten used to the temperature of this purple fire. If one had to use a sense of touch to describe this feeling, it would be the difference between soaking one's hand in 100 degrees of boiling water and soaking it in 60 to 70 degrees of hot water. As his body became more and more accustomed, the temperature of sixty to seventy degrees Celsius was no longer any harm to An Zheng.

”What a monster!”

The purple flame elder's eyes became cold. He initially extended a hand, pointing at An Zheng with a single finger, purple fire shot out from the tip of his finger. He stretched out both of his hands and a purple flame surged out from his palms. It was several times stronger than before.

An Zheng had already gotten used to the temperature of the purple flames, so no matter how strong the flames were, there wouldn't be much of a change. Unless the quality of the fire improved, it was only a matter of more or less. Increasing the amount of fire, rather than changing the quality of fire, did not have much of an impact on An Zheng. After another four to five minutes, An Zheng no longer felt any discomfort. Instead, he felt comfortable and relaxed like bathing in a hot spring.

An Zheng laid down in the pill furnace and looked at the purple fire elderly man, ”Why do you have to burn me to death?”

The old man angrily said, ”You evildoers, come from the mortal world and destroy my immortal palace. You and I naturally cannot tolerate each other!”

An Zheng frowned slightly: ”But the immortal palace has already been destroyed for at least tens of thousands of years, is this my first time here, or was somehow brought in by someone else? I have never known anything about the immortal palace, so why do you think that I have anything to do with the people who destroyed the immortal palace? Since you mentioned it, let me ask … Why were the immortal palaces destroyed? ”

”Demon, you still dare to be impudent!”

The purple flame elder thought that An Zheng was purposely teasing him and hatred filled his eyes, ”Even if I have to sacrifice this life of mine, I will still refine you!”

The purple fire in his hands continued to spew out, while his body looked increasingly gloomy. An Zheng guessed that the old man must have been the owner of the pill furnace when he was still alive. For some reason, he had been drawn into the pill furnace. He must have thought that the fella who had destroyed the Immortal Palaces was here again.

But from the old man's short words, An Zheng was able to catch a few key words.

A monstrous genius from the mortal world destroyed the immortal palace?

This is simply a paradox … Qi Tian had said before, people who had not reached the Immortal Realm would never be able to enter the Immortal Palace. At that time, the complete immortal palace's seal was extremely powerful. Even though it was now damaged, it wouldn't be able to enter without the protection of a real treasure. Du Shoushou's cultivation was not yet at the level of Prison Desire, so even with the protection of the purple Golden-Rank, he was almost killed. At that time, An Zheng did some calculations: cultivators above the fifth stage of Prison Desire, could enter with the help of a Golden-Rank Magic Tool. Cultivators of the Sumeru Stage like Du Shoushou would never be able to enter unless they had the protection of a Purple-Rank Divine Artifact.

Thus, how had those so-called freaks of the mortal world entered the Immortal palace?

Not only that, the people of the mortal world actually destroyed sucuge immortal palace.

When the old man saw that An Zheng was deep in thought and did not speak, he thought An Zheng was looking down on him. A sense of grief and indignation arose in his heart. He almost shouted, ”Today, even if I have to die, I will die with you!”

He had actually retracted his hand, and pounced towards An Zheng.

An Zheng was shocked, and immediately dodged to the side: ”I'm really not those people who destroyed the immortal palace back then, why are you not listening to my explanation?”

”Even if you aren't, you're still here for my pill furnace!”

”No!” I don't even know how I got in. A straw rope wrapped around my foot and dragged me in. ”

”Don't even try to argue! If you weren't here for the pill furnace, how could you have entered this herb field? You are clearly a bandit. I would rather die than let you succeed. Back then, when the immortal palace was destroyed by you low level geniuses, there was no meaning for me to continue living. The reason why this lifespan was extended was only to protect this pill furnace. Even if your body is to be smashed to smithereens, I will make you vanish into thin air! ”

He rushed towards An Zheng, but An Zheng dodged once again. The purple flame elder seemed like a mad demon as he chased after An Zheng, not giving up until he was dead.
