It was a stone door, but the word "death" was engraved on it, dripping with blood. A strong smell of blood spread out. Not to mention ordinary mortals, even some cultivators might not be able to resist it.
It was hard to imagine what kind of terrifying killing intent this word contained!
And the closer he got, the more clearly Yan Chutian could feel the majestic blood qi nurtured by this word. So much so that he had to use his spiritual power to create a light curtain in front of the stone door. Otherwise, he might not be able to block this majestic blood qi.
Then, Yan Chutian slowly stretched out his arm and pressed on the stone door, wanting to push it open.
However, just as his hand pressed on the corner of the stone door, suddenly, a pale, bloodless palm was placed on his arm.
Yan Chutian hurriedly looked over and saw a middle-aged woman looking at him with longing eyes. However, before she could say any words, a sharp bronze spear pierced through her abdomen, causing her to spurt out a large amount of blood mist. She fell softly in front of Yan Chutian's eyes.
This sudden scene caused Yan Chutian to be a little stunned. He looked around and there was no longer any stone door around him. Blood mist was flying everywhere, dripping with blood. Flames were burning in all directions, just like purgatory in the human world.
"Whoosh!"
A sharp whistling sound suddenly rang out, and a bronze spear shot out from nowhere, ruthlessly piercing through a middle-aged man with an extraordinary cultivation base, and nailing him to a stone pillar.
And no matter how unwilling the middle-aged man was, the seemingly ordinary bronze spear nailed him to death, and he would never be able to break free.
At the same time, accompanied by an ear-piercing sound, the bronze spear that pierced through the woman's body in front of him was slowly pulled out. Dark red blood flowed down the body of the spear, and it was extremely bloody.
"Keke, my spirit … will definitely …"
Amidst the bloody massacre, cold and hoarse laughter rang out. Hearing this hoarse laughter, Yan Chutian suddenly felt extremely disgusted. It was as if this was the thing he hated the most in his life, even to his soul, and it could never be erased.
However, no matter how much Yan Chutian loathed it, he could not see the source of the hoarse laughter. He could only see what seemed to be a mass of black fog pulling out the blood-stained bronze spear, and then crazily slaughtering again.
Suddenly, Yan Chutian's sleeves were pulled once again. This time, he lowered his head to take a look, only to see a petite figure curled up under him. The little girl was trying her best to stretch out her arms, opening her mouth as if she wanted to say something.
However, before she could utter a single word, a bronze spear shot over from afar and pierced through the little girl's body.
Scarlet blood gushed out and dyed Yan Chutian's entire face red.
"Hu hu …"
Yan Chutian panted violently. After he panted, when he raised his head again, the scene around him changed back to the passageway and stone door. The blood and fire had disappeared.
Then he quickly pulled back his arm as if he had been electrocuted. Yan Chutian was not an idiot. When he came back to his senses, he naturally knew that the scene just now was most likely the source of the blood on the stone door, the memories of those who had died tragically.
Yan Chutian did not know what had slaughtered them all. The only feeling he had was that he hated those things. Even if he did not say that he hated them as if he was born, Yan Chutian could not forgive what they had done.
There were many experts among those who had been slaughtered, but even more were low level cultivators and even mortals. But even so, the other did not let them go. How could he not be angry?!
For a long time, Yan Chutian could not calm his emotions. Only after a long time did he gradually recover.
No matter what, he did not know how many years ago things had happened. Even if the current Yan Chutian was angry, there was no possibility of saving him. Yan Chutian even felt that even if he appeared in front of the other party with all his strength, he would only be slaughtered.
After gradually stabilizing his emotions, Yan Chutian once again stretched out his hand and slowly pressed on the stone door.
This time, there were no bloody memories from before. Even after that, Yan Chutian easily pushed open the stone door.
The stone door was slowly pushed open. However, there was no rotten smell as Yan Chutian imagined. Instead, what entered his eyes was a stone platform that was about five feet tall. And in front of the stone platform, there was a stone tablet.
Although the words on the stone tablet were ancient, it did not hinder reading. Therefore, Yan Chutian easily knew the contents of the stone tablet.
"If you want to pass, on the stone platform, be burned by the Earth Core Flame for a moment."
The method to pass was very simple. Although it seemed to be simple, Yan Chutian clearly knew how terrifying the Earth Core Flame was.
The so-called Geocentric Flame was a scorching flame that was directly guided from the depths of the earth. This kind of flame was not comparable to ordinary flames. Not only could it burn the forest, it could even burn the Spiritual Energy Metal. It could be seen how terrifying it was.
It was not an exaggeration to say that not to mention ordinary cultivators, even cultivators who had practiced some body refining techniques would not dare to endure the burning of the Earth Core Flame, let alone for a quarter of an hour.
But for others, Yan Chutian was eager to give it a try. Now that his Mysterious Yang Body was approaching the third grade, he had a lot of confidence that he could withstand the burning of the Earth Core Flame.
Moreover, at this point, no matter what, Yan Chutian could not give up without trying. Therefore, after a slight hesitation, he slowly climbed up the stone platform and sat on it.
In an instant, rich Mysterious Yang Qi continuously flowed from Yan Chutian's dantian to his limbs and bones. There was a mysterious fluctuation emitted from his body. It was as if no matter what kind of attack fell, it would not be able to damage his body.
This was the Mysterious Yang Body!
At the same time, there was a constant movement around the stone platform. The originally sealed ground suddenly had a gap. Then, without any explanation, a red pillar of fire spewed out and directly surrounded Yan Chutian.
Earth Core Flame!
Although he had already expected the Earth Core Flame to be terrifying, when it really came into contact with his body, Yan Chutian still felt an extremely hot burning sensation. Even if his body was close to the third grade Mysterious Yang Body, he could not completely resist this feeling.
In almost an instant, all the clothes on Yan Chutian's body were destroyed. The Earth Core Flame was like a spirit snake that wandered all over his body.
Fortunately, Yan Chutian had already sealed his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. Otherwise, even if he could resist the burning of the Earth Core Flame, he would not be able to resist it if it invaded his body.
Time sometimes passed like a white horse, and sometimes it crawled like a snail. Just like now, under the constant burning of the Earth Core Flame, Yan Chutian only felt that time was passing very slowly. It was only a quarter of an hour, but it felt like a year.
During this process, the burning power of the Earth Core Flame did not show any signs of weakening. Instead, it became more and more terrifying. In the end, even Yan Chutian could not endure it.
This was because his skin was showing signs of being burnt black. Blood was seeping out, but it was quickly evaporated by the Earth Core Flame.
This kind of pain, even if Yan Chutian could endure it, he could no longer suppress the painful groan in his mouth.
The power of the Earth Core Flame was too terrifying. It was not an exaggeration to say that the current Yan Chutian was like a mortal being burned in flames. How could it be easy for him to endure it?
And because of the terrifying power of the Earth Core Flame, many forces in the Heaven Realm would even use it as a torture method for interrogation.
But of course, when facing a powerful cultivator, they would naturally use the Earth Core Flame that was deeper in the earth. The closer it was to the legendary Earth Core, the more terrifying the power of the Earth Core Flame would be.
Finally, after what seemed like a century, after a quarter of an hour, Yan Chutian hurriedly fell down from the stone platform that was enveloped by the Earth Core Flame. After Yan Chutian left the stone platform, the Earth Core Flame around the stone platform dissipated. At this time, Yan Chutian's entire body was incomparably black, like a piece of coal. Moreover, it faintly emitted a burnt smell of meat.
If others were to see it, they would definitely think that Yan Chutian had been burned to death by the Earth Core Flame.
However, if someone were to carefully examine it, they would be able to discover that under this charred appearance, there was clearly an extremely strong life aura pulsing.
After an hour, with a sudden cracking sound, Yan Chutian's charred skin actually cracked open, and along with the cracking of the skin, an extremely white skin was revealed.
