Chapter 79: Furnace Prison (Part 2/2)

The furnace of hell displayed ample rejection towards the alien body that was the Wraith Sign. The fiery sea churned up large thick bubbles, showing a deep magma-like structure. The glowing flames flowed in the sky above the fiery sea like a giant dancing python, roaring and seeking to consume the Wraith Sign.

The furnace of hell wasn’t like the stomach of a Darksider life form, instead, it was like being in the middle of an enormous world. It had the feeling of fantasy from a dimensional world.

The Wraith Sign didn’t rush to fight, to destroy, when faced with this environment. It just raised its head to the sky and howled. Bloody life-like flames burned around its body, attuning with the Format Pyramid on the outside. It took the special structural form of the Format Pyramid and expanded it out layer by layer.

Within the core of the furnace of hell, lines of different thickness traveled and crisscrossed to construct one basic structure after another. They joined and interlinked to form a complicated bodily whole.

This scene was familiar in this way. It was just like the mystical altar within the fighting arena of DeShang Building.

That’s right. The Wraith Sign had erected a new altar. The one before was founded atop the turbid flowing emotions of several hundred spectators. And the one now was built in the middle of this furnace of hell.

Luo Nan’s two eyes had been grasping in the dark when it came to the previous altar; he knew how, but not why. Yet when he touched the Tower of Babel established by the Dynamo Core, when Jack “selflessly” revealed his process, Luo Nan understood the structural rules behind the operation of energy and information. And he had grasped soul breathing as well. So he gradually came to experience the marvels of interfering and intercommunicating between the material and mental planes. Now it seemed that he had some sense of an understanding.

Luo Nan noticed that the structures of the two altars were extremely similar. They didn’t seem to possess inherent differences. The rules behind their operation especially didn’t seem different. Namely, the way they handled energy and information was precisely the same.

A simple logical deduction made the following known: The same form would often lead to the same content. Since the structure was as such, the existing foundation shouldn’t be too different.

“Oh, in other words, the foundation behind this furnace of hell is, in fact, similar in nature to the spectators of the fighting arena. The only difference is that one is manifested as a turbid flow of emotions, the other is manifested as a furnace of hell……”

Luo Nan’s interest increased as he looked: “The turbid flow rooted in human emotions and desire can actually develop into a different form and possess a different function. Could this sort of transformation be attributed to the Human-Faced Arachnid? Or is there some other influential factor?”

Holding his question and enlightenment, Luo Nan observed this furnace of hell and felt an increase in clarity and understanding.

The Wraith Sign pushed onward, advancing the process of building the altar. The giant flame python, which had been battering and disturbing the Wraith Sign from the outside, gradually stopped. The thick bubbles within the fiery sea of magma burst open to clearly reveal the distorted faces of humans. Hatred, terror, or perhaps fever all cast glaring gazes at the Wraith Sign.

But no matter what they did, they were unable to prevent the continuous expansion, the continuous perfection, of the altar’s structure. And as various functionalities were laid out, the intimidating might of these faces fell down the road of decline.

Things were just this interesting. It didn’t matter how terrifying and tragic the environment was. As soon as the altar was erected, some had become the priest and some had become the sacrifice. Some possessed the power of domination. Some were just stupid livestock. It was a sort of distinction of statuses that was callous and clear.

The terrifying setting of the furnace of hell continued on. It may possess the enormous force to consume awareness and melt souls, but due to its status assigned by the altar, it couldn’t cause any threats at all to the Wraith Sign atop the altar.

In other words, the Wraith Sign used an altar to suppress the furnace of fire.

At the same time, it was stripping more basic things from this fiery prison.
