Chapter 1337: Holing Up (2/2)

Instead of chasing after them, Hou Chulan, Huang Jinnan, and the others stayed together and watched them flee in panic.

Peng Yan didn’t pay much attention to them either.

All of them were paying close attention to the volcano, and every move Pang Chicheng made in it.

After all, they had felt great changes in this heaven and earth the moment Pang Chicheng had descended into the lava lake. Now, flame power was madly converging on this place from every part of the Realm of Fire Spirit.

“He’s started his attempt to enter the God domain,” Hou Chulan said with a complicated expression.

Huang Jinnan’s expression flickered slightly as he sighed and said, “God domain! That man is a rare talent indeed. He’s not much older than Senior Brother Pu Yangbai. He doesn’t have our sect’s cultivation resources, and he’s been hiding himself from place to place over the years. Despite all this, he managed to make his attempt to enter the God domain at this age.”

“He’s bound to become a formidable and ruthless character in the future if he doesn’t die,” Lin Yaoyao said.

“He already is,” Hou Chulan said, approaching her. Then, she looked up at Nie Tian in his enlarged form and added, “But I’m afraid this one is even more formidable.”

Nie Tian swung the bone once again. “Die, Pang Chicheng!”

By activating its bloodline talent, he created a huge net of interweaving blood-colored light, with which he hoped to shatter the volcano below.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Even more profound spell formations appeared on the rocky inside of the volcano. They gathered fierce flame power to form multiple protective shields.

Vested with Pang Bo’s lifetime understanding of flame power, the shields emanated waves of incomparably violent power!

BOOM!

The net of crimson light slammed into the shields, but failed to crush them as he had imagined.

At the same time, he sensed wisps of unique auras rising from underneath the lava lake. The level five Immortal grade Four Manifestations Flame Soul Cauldron seemed to have been activated as well.

“Let me try!”

Lou Hongyan flew over, crimson ribbons flying from within her sleeves towards the fiery shields.

A powerful force suddenly burst forth from within the shield, blasting the Spirit Channeling grade spiritual tools Shao Tianyang had forged for her into the sky.

Lou Hongyan let out a muffled groan and quieted down.

Hou Chulan and Hou Chulan knew better than to make attempts themselves. They took a look at the shields, and then turned to fix Peng Yan with inquiring gazes.

Peng Yan shook his head. “Nothing will work, unless Sectmaster Shao gets here himself… Our former sectmaster vested this volcano with far too many fiery spell formations and divine talismans. He made it as solid as a fortress with metal walls. And he did that so his son could break through into the God domain without being disturbed.

“Now, the day has finally come for the powerful grand spell formations within it to go to work.

“Even the Four Manifestations Flame Soul Cauldron has started helping Pang Chicheng from the underground palace as it had been instructed, so that no one will be able to sabotage his breakthrough into the God domain.

“At this moment, even if powerful experts from the other four sects get here, I doubt that they’ll be able to affect Pang Chicheng.

“We can only hope that his knowledge of flame power and experience are still insufficient, and his cultivation talent isn’t remarkable enough to allow him to enter the God domain just yet. Otherwise, I’m afraid no one in the Five Elements Sect can ruin his breakthrough for him.”

Huang Jinnan let out a cold harrumph. “That senior of the fire element sect really doted on this son he had in his later years. It’s a pity that he died before he could see what kind of person his son grew into.”

As people discussed, Nie Tian was struck by a strong sense of weakness.

WHOOSH!

His enormous body shrank abruptly, and he returned to his true form within a short time. At the same time, the huge Star Behemoth bone shrank and returned to his ring of holding.

He took a brief moment to examine himself, and discovered that he had consumed a considerable amount of Blood Essence, as well as the flesh power stored in his internal organs and bones.

Even though his battle prowess soared through the sky when he was in his enlarged form, he couldn’t stay in that form for too long.

At least his current bloodline grade and flesh power accumulation didn’t allow him to do that yet.

Furthermore, he also had a feeling that the fact that he was able to activate that form had a great deal to do with the Star Behemoth bone. Without its power, he probably wouldn’t be able to activate it at all.

“No one can tamper with his attempt to break through into the God domain?” He asked with a cold face.

Peng Yan smiled bitterly. “I’m afraid so.”

With a cold smile, Nie Tian said, “I doubt it. Why don’t you go retake the spatial teleportations in the Realm of Fire Spirit, so I can ask God domain experts, including Ji Yuanquan, Ye Wenhan, Mo Qianfan, and Yu Suying, to come here together.

“I refuse to believe that even joined together, they won’t be able to stop Pang Chicheng!”

Peng Yan’s eyes lit up as he heard these words. “That might actually work!”
