Su Ming would naturally not be so kind and considerate as to let the others enjoy the fruits of his labor while he worked alone.
Xuan Shang and his group might not be the main souls under the black flames, but all the pain in their bodies was shared equally. Because of that, the four of them felt incredibly great pain. The pain that made them feel as if their entire bodies and even their souls and cultivation bases were about to be burned gave them no room to refuse. In fact, it was impossible for them to do so anyway.
In an instant, Su Ming sat down cross-legged on the Resentful Wei. When he lifted his right hand, he struck his own body. With it, a black medicinal core appeared on his palm.
This medicinal core was not something that could be eaten, but a Fire Evasion Core!
This item was created using a variety of valuable materials, and it was something that Xuan Shang and his group had gathered over the years to create. Su Ming clenched his fist and crushed the core, then flung it outwards.
With it, the flames in front of him instantly roared. As they did so, the temperature decreased slightly.
At the instant the temperature decreased, the Resentful Wei let out a roar and its speed increased exponentially. Su Ming sat down cross-legged on its body and circulated his cultivation base at full force to fight against the burning brought by the black flames.
His hair and eyebrows had already disappeared, and a large number of cracks were appearing on his body. Even if this body was formed by a supreme treasure, it would still not be able to last for long under the destructive flames.
Besides, the faster a person moved in the sea of fire, the more severe the burns would be, but if they did not move quickly and stayed in the place for a long time, the burns would become more severe. In fact, once the black flames erupted, not only would they not be able to enter the fifth kiln, they would also be in life-threatening danger.
"One isn't enough! Bring out all of them!" As Su Ming moved forward, cracks appeared on his body, and he immediately sent a divine thought to Xuan Shang.
Xuan Shang hesitated for a moment before he asked, "But … But if we use all of them, how are we supposed to rush out of the sea of fire when we return?"
"If we can't even get in, then what's the point of returning?" Su Ming did not slow down. Zhu You Cai and the other two people had already widened the distance between them.
As he spoke, Su Ming struck his body with his right hand again. This time, five Fire Evasion Cores appeared in his hand. Once he crushed all of them, he flung his arm, and the temperature of the flames before him immediately dropped once again. His speed increased exponentially, and in the span of a breath, he left into the distance.
In an instant, he was practically standing side by side with the boy in white, who was the last of the three. The boy in white swiftly looked at Su Ming, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face. He did not expect that Su Ming would be able to catch up to him.
"No, there are only six pills left!" Xuan Shang immediately sent his divine thought, and there was anxiety in his voice. Clearly, even if he did not tell the truth, he only had one or two pills left.
Su Ming did not force it too hastily. He no longer spoke. Instead, a brilliant light shone in his eyes, and determination appeared in them. He could not stay in the sea of fire for too long, or else the body of the supreme treasure would shatter.
"Resentful Wei, full speed ahead. Don't worry about me!" Once Su Ming sent his divine thought to the black horse, the Resentful Wei's six eyes shone at the same time, and it let out a roar in the direction of the sea of fire. This roar caused the expression of the boy in white to change, and it also caused the expressions of Zhu You Cai and Flame Fiends' Progenitor to change. The black horse's speed instantly increased exponentially.
As it charged forward, it surpassed the boy in white in the blink of an eye, as well as Zhu You Cai and Flame Fiends' Progenitor. As for Su Ming, a powerful burning sensation instantly submerged him. As it did so, intense pain shot through his body, and the pain from being burned was immediately divided into six parts. Once they were shared equally among the people, the Resentful Wei beneath Su Ming became even faster.
Su Ming knew that the others could maintain a constant speed in the black flames, but he could not, because the bodies of the others were real and formed by their cultivation bases, but his body was formed by the supreme treasure. Since it was bound to be damaged, then when he had to choose between rushing out of the sea of fire at full speed and continuing forward at a constant speed, he would choose the former!
As he rushed out, his body burned and cracked, but the Resentful Wei beneath him moved like lightning. It surpassed the boy in white, Zhu You Cai, and Flame Fiends' Progenitor, and crashed into an invisible barrier hidden in the flames.
With a bang, a powerful rebound came from the invisible barrier. It crashed into Su Ming's body, and it was immediately scattered by the other five. At the same time, Su Ming stirred up Ecang's presence in his soul and also summoned his Ecang clone to fuse with him, causing his cultivation base to reach its peak. When the Resentful Wei crashed into the barrier again, a loud bang that shook the sea of fire in the area spread out. The invisible barrier shattered, and the Resentful Wei rushed out!
Behind it were Zhu You Cai, Flame Fiends' Progenitor, and the boy in white. However, they also had to face the invisible barrier. It fused together incredibly quickly, and unless they moved at the same time, even if it was just for an instant, it would immediately close up, and the people who came later would still have to face the barrier's obstruction.
When the booming sounds from the barrier reverberated in the air, Su Ming rushed out of the sea of fire with the Resentful Wei and appeared above the platform in the fifth kiln.
He saw Huang Mei and Zi Long on the platform and noticed that their gazes were focused on him at that moment. He could also vaguely see the smile at the corners of Zi Long's lips and the frown on Huang Mei's face.
Su Ming did not have time to think too much. Once he rushed out, he immediately descended on the platform. In an instant, he landed on the platform. The Resentful Wei looked normal, but a large part of the body Su Ming controlled showed signs of being burned. He sucked in a deep breath, and as he closed his eyes, he circulated his cultivation base. At the same time, Xuan Shang and the other three let out sighs of relief in the midst of their intense nervousness and started seizing the time to repair their bodies.
Xu Hui might not have said anything, but in truth, the worry in her heart was naturally much greater than Xuan Shang and the other three. When she saw that Su Ming was fine, she relaxed and circulated her cultivation base to fuse it into repairing his body.
Because of it, the body Su Ming controlled was originally in an incredibly disheveled state in Huang Mei and Zi Long's eyes, but at a speed visible to the naked eye, it was rapidly recovering. The burned parts disappeared, and the signs of burning faded away. In just the span of a few breaths, most of the body had recovered.
However, Su Ming knew that this was just what it looked like on the surface. In truth, the body formed by the supreme treasure already had some damage that could not be healed. He did not know how much longer it could last, but it was clear that it would not last for long.
After all, this item was created by a Sublime Paragon. If he did not have this supreme treasure, it would have been difficult for Su Ming to last for so long in the black flames, even if it was his Ecang clone, and he did not have enough speed, it would have been difficult for him to enter the fifth kiln. Unless his Ecang clone became stronger, then perhaps he would have been able to do it.
Right then, he might have used a trick, but with the Resentful Wei's speed, it was enough for him to enter the fifth kiln!
When Su Ming opened his eyes, he saw Reverend Zi Long nodding at him with a smile. As for Huang Mei, he let out a cold harrumph but did not speak.
A barely noticeable glint shone in Su Ming's eyes. The change in their attitude towards him was clearly different from when they were outside. There had to be some reason he did not know about behind it.
As he was immersed in his thoughts, violent booms came from the sea of fire above him. They rang out a few times, and Flame Fiends' Progenitor was the first to rush out. Behind him was Zhu You Cai, and the last was the white-robed teenager.
When the three of them landed on the platform, they lifted their heads to look at the sea of fire above them. There was lingering fear in their eyes. The three of them looked rather disheveled. Clearly, even with their levels of cultivation, it had been very difficult for them to move forward while facing the destructive flames.
Once the three of them looked at the sea of fire above them, they cast their gazes towards Su Ming almost at the same time. There was a solemn look in their eyes, along with a hint of surprise. This was the first time they regarded Su Ming's existence seriously. They had only made some guesses previously, but in truth, they did not pay too much attention to it. They only felt that there were no weaklings among those who could come here.
Right then, after what happened just then, Su Ming used his actions to show that he had what it took for the three of them to pay attention to him.
"You have the body of a Fire Fiend, but you didn't come in after us. Instead, a cultivator managed to get in before you!" Huang Mei cast a glance at Flame Fiends' Progenitor and sighed.
Flame Fiends' Progenitor rolled his eyes. When he narrowed them, a fierce glare shone in his eyes, but he did not say anything.
'They were making a bet just now!' Su Ming's expression was calm, but a thought appeared in his heart.
'Huang Mei chose Flame Fiends' Progenitor, and Reverend Zi Long chose … me! ' Su Ming swept his gaze across the area. When he looked towards Reverend Zi Long, a hint of surprise appeared in Zi Long's eyes, but it soon turned into praise. He nodded. Clearly, he had managed to see through Su Ming's thoughts based on his gaze, and he knew that Su Ming had guessed what had happened just now.
Su Ming's heart froze. Once again, he sensed that while these people might seem to have all sorts of appearances, in truth, all of them were cunning and calculative. For example, Huang Mei's words just now might have sounded like he was grumbling, but in truth, it was also a form of provocation.
The white-robed teenager cast a profound glance at Su Ming. When he walked to Reverend Zi Long's side, he lifted his right hand and swung his arm. Immediately, the air distorted, and the catwoman's figure manifested from within. Her expression was still apathetic. The white-robed teenager went up and bit her neck deeply, as if he was sucking her blood. Several breaths later, he lifted his head. There was still blood at the corners of his mouth, but the injuries on his body had recovered slightly during that moment.
Then, he put away the catwoman. Once he sat down cross-legged, he closed his eyes and began meditating. Zhu You Cai also chose to meditate in another direction. As for Huo Wu, he squatted down on Zhu You Cai's body. When he occasionally looked towards Su Ming, a ferocious smile would appear at the corners of his lips.
"Alright, we'll rest here for a few days. Once the black flames in the world outside are over and the fire in the kiln disappears, we can enter the kiln," the yellow-browed man said calmly. He sat down by the side, picked up his gourd, and started drinking.
Reverend Zi Long's expression turned aloof again. When he sat down, he closed his eyes. The area instantly fell silent. Only the lingering sounds of the sea of fire tumbling about outside the platform could occasionally be heard.
"Su …" At the instant Su Ming closed his eyes, he suddenly heard an indistinct voice hidden in the midst of the booming sounds in the air around him.
That voice drifted about and echoed in the area.
At the instant it appeared, all the people opened their eyes.
