"Creak …"
Zhou Yang pushed open the door. Inside, there was a futon, an ancient table, and a woman reading a book.
The woman in front of him wore a black robe, her right sleeve fluttering in the wind. Her exquisite face was unadorned, and her eyes were as deep as the sea, as if one would sink into them with just a glance.
This was undoubtedly an extremely beautiful woman. Time seemed to not have left any traces on her face, but her eyes revealed wisdom that was impossible for someone of Tang Yuewu's age.
However, the jade was flawed, and this woman actually had a broken arm.
The woman didn't speak, and Zhou Yang's gaze involuntarily fell on the ancient book under her slender fingers.
"Beast Fire Scripture …"
Zhou Yang didn't expect this book to be the Beast Fire Scripture.
"The Beast Fire Scripture originated from the Land of Chaos. Although it is a scripture level cultivation method, it was incomparably sought after a thousand years ago. This is because its second cultivation method allows the cultivator's flame level to continuously increase …" The woman looked at the book and spoke slowly, analyzing the Beast Fire Scripture very thoroughly. Zhou Yang only listened and didn't answer, until the time it took to burn a stick of incense …
"My name is Su Xin. Lin Wanqing is my registered disciple, and you will be my last disciple."
Zhou Yang was startled, thinking that this woman was overbearing. He hadn't even spoken yet, and he had already become her last disciple …
"Forgive me for not being able to comply." Zhou Yang shook his head.
"People often have no choice. You can only choose to accept or be forced to accept. Choosing the former may save you some face." Su Xin was still expressionless, and she didn't even look at Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang had never seen such an overbearing and arrogant person in his life, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart.
"I, Zhou Yang, never accept threats, let alone threats from a woman."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yang turned around and left.
Su Xin seemed to have expected this and allowed Zhou Yang to leave. However, when Zhou Yang walked out of the door, she suddenly knocked her finger on the table.
"Buzz …"
Zhou Yang, who had just left the door, suddenly felt the world spin, and everything around him became distorted.
"Array …"
Zhou Yang's heart tightened. Although he recognized this was an array, he couldn't do anything about it, and could only let the array change.
"Hu …"
A gust of hot wind blew, and in front of him was no longer lush mountains and green waters, but a sea of fire.
At this moment, he was in the depths of a rock floating above a magma lake.
Heat, incomparably hot. Despite the fact that his Giant God Astral Soul was formed from lava and he cultivated the Beast Fire Sutra, he was still unable to withstand the waves of heat. More importantly, there was also the black smoke slowly drifting down from above.
Once the smoke fell, it was very likely that it would blind him.
"Could this be an illusion array?" Zhou Yang thought instinctively.
"The School of Martial Arts uses the Five Elemental Great Formation as its defensive formation. Each formation has five elemental energy as its foundation, and this lava lake is the source of the fire elemental energy. Since you've chosen the latter, you can stay here. When you can't take it anymore, kneel down and call me master, and I'll let you out …"
Su Xin's voice sounded from above. Zhou Yang immediately clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
"Women really can't be reasoned with."
After Zhou Yang said this, a cold snort came from above. Then, black smoke rolled down and the lava lake surged …
There was no time to argue with Su Xin. Zhou Yang hurriedly circulated the Beast Fire Sutra to resist the violent fire elemental energy. At the same time, he closed his eyes to prevent himself from being blinded by the smoke.
The heat wave became hotter and hotter as the magma churned. The flames that sputtered out soon burned his clothes to ashes.
Sizzle …
His body started to burn, and pain filled his entire body. If he wasn't strong enough, he would probably kneel down and beg for mercy.
But Zhou Yang was different. Three years of faith and forbearance had taught him to seek opportunities in adversity. Although it seemed incomparably dangerous, he could feel that the rock he was sitting on seemed to have a mysterious power that could protect his life.
In an instant, he determined Su Xin's motive.
Su Xin clearly didn't want to kill him. She wanted to force him to submit with this kind of punishment that was worse than death.
"Just a mere flame. You want to force me to submit? You're underestimating me."
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang no longer had any reservations. Instead, he released the Giant God Astral Soul and tried to fuse with it.
"He's really smart. He knows that this lava lake is a good place to cultivate the fire elemental energy."
In the thatched cottage, Lin Wanqing stood beside Su Xin and looked at Zhou Yang in the mirror.
In the thatched cottage, Lin Wanqing stood beside Su Xin and looked at Zhou Yang's reflection in the mirror.
"How long do you think he can last?" Su Xin asked.
"One day. Although the Protective Jade Stone can guarantee his life, it can also lessen his pain. As the pain deepens, he will eventually give in." Lin Wanqing knew the dangers of the magma lake. Saying one day was already the highest evaluation she could give.
Su Xin didn't say anything. She couldn't help but look at the jade bracelet on her wrist. After a long time, she closed her eyes.
Underneath the lava lake, Zhou Yang's eyes were tightly shut. His entire body had already turned crimson. Although every time he was burned, there would be a mystical power that would heal his wounds, the pain that felt like thousands of ants biting his body was getting worse and worse.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, which was instantly vaporized by the heatwave.
The immense pain caused him to clench his teeth and clench his fists to bleed profusely.
"Awesome!"
An enraged roar reverberated throughout the magma lake. After which, the Magma Giant God Astral Soul actually roared as well.
Kacha …
A wisp of flame appeared on his right thumb as his 5th finger started to fuse with an Astral Soul.
"This fellow is truly crazy. He actually fused an Astral Soul here." Lin Wanqing's eyes were filled with terror.
"This is where you are inferior to him. He knows how to seek opportunities in the face of adversity." Su Xin indifferently spoke, as though she wasn't surprised that Zhou Yang was able to fuse an Astral Soul.
5%!
Zhou Yang's heart leaped with joy. After the fusion of his 5th finger was completed, he suddenly felt the pain lessening.
"Su Xin, if you only have this much ability, don't even talk about accepting me as a disciple. You can barely be my sparring partner." Zhou Yang's voice was somewhat hoarse, but his tone was filled with mockery.
"Then I will spar with you."
Su Xin's smile disappeared in an instant. In the next instant, the magma lake started to seethe violently. From the rock Zhou Yang was sitting on, a gentle glow rose up and enveloped his entire body.
Following which, Zhou Yang's body started to sink together with the rock.
"He's sinking …"
Zhou Yang silently cursed. But before he could react, his entire body was enveloped by a flame energy that was several times stronger than before. This time, it wasn't just his flesh that was being tortured. Even his meridians and bones were being scorched.
"F * ck!"
The excruciating pain caused him to involuntarily curse. At this moment, he couldn't care less about his demeanor.
"Awesome, this is too awesome. Woman, if you have the ability, let this daddy feel even better. Come on …"
"You want to make this daddy submit? You're still far from it …"
