In his imagination, Lu Ming should have roared, wailed, screamed, and begged for mercy.
However, he didn't see any of that.
He knew how terrifying the Burning God Earth Flame was. In the past, he had brought many people who had offended him and none of them could last more than five minutes. All of them screamed and begged for mercy.
There were even some who begged for death because being in the Burning God Earth Flame was worse than death.
However, more than ten minutes had passed and Lu Ming was sitting calmly on top of the magma as if he was sitting in a normal place.
"This kid is too shocking. He's a terrifying monster. We can't let him leave alive!"
Patriarch Zhou's heart trembled slightly.
"Father, I'll go back first!"
Zhou Xin said with pity in her eyes.
"Alright, you go first!"
Patriarch Zhou said.
Zhou Xin glanced at Lu Ming before turning to leave.
"Let's see how long you can endure."
Patriarch Zhou's eyes were cold as he formed a seal with both hands. The Sealing Yuan Tower shook and a few iron chains fell from the top. They pierced Lu Ming's shoulder and locked Lu Ming's body.
Lu Ming gave a muffled snort. He cast a cold glance at the head of the Zhou family and then closed his eyes.
He had locked his physical body with metal chains and used the Essence Sealing Pagoda to suppress his Quintessential Essence and intent, making him unable to resist at all. The head of the Zhou family was afraid that Lu Ming would escape.
Terrifying flames were burning Lu Ming's body all around. Unimaginable pain came in waves. At first, Lu Ming was suffering bitterly, but slowly, he calmed down.
"No matter how great the pain is, it won't shake my heart. This is just a trial on my martial path. No matter how much he suffers, I won't move!"
Lu Ming gradually calmed down. In the end, he entered an ethereal state.
The pain was leaving him. In the end, Lu Ming seemed to have become one with heaven and earth.
It was a wonderful state. In ancient records, it was called Dao Enlightenment.
One with Heaven and Earth, breaking free from the shackles of the physical body and comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
No one would have thought that burning Lu Ming with the God Burning Earth Flame would instead cause Lu Ming's mind to become empty and enter a mysterious state.
Time flew by!
Half an hour, one hour, five hours, half a day, one day …
Three days later, Lu Ming was still sitting calmly on top of the magma, motionless.
The Patriarch of the Zhou Clan and the old man were shocked at the beginning, but they were now numb to it.
Lu Ming was actually sitting there, motionless. If not for the fact that his body was still filled with vitality, they would have thought that Lu Ming was already dead.
"This kid is truly heaven-defying. He can actually endure for three days?"
The old man spoke with a trembling voice.
"All peerless geniuses have extraordinary willpower and willpower. This person is definitely terrifying since he was able to defeat Sanguinarum. However, as long as he's human, there's a limit. He's just enduring it now. I don't believe that he can endure it forever!"
The Patriarch of the Zhou Clan said.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that Lu Ming had already entered the ethereal state. Ten thousand tribulations were on him and he was like a gentle breeze.
They continued to wait.
In the blink of an eye, seven days had passed.
Lu Ming was still sitting calmly on top of the magma.
The Patriarch of the Zhou Clan gritted his teeth.
"Lu Shaoqing, are you going to hand it over or not? If you hand it over, you won't have to suffer this pain."
The Patriarch of the Zhou Clan asked loudly.
In the past seven days, this was the thirty-second time he had asked.
Lu Ming closed his eyes. Just like before, he couldn't be bothered with him.
"Fine, fine. If you don't want to talk, then stay here forever and suffer the pain of the God Burning Earth Flame. Elder Shan, let's go!"
The Patriarch of the Zhou Clan waved his sleeves and strode out.
He had lost his patience.
The two of them left the place. Then, along the way, there were stone doors that were closed and sealed off.
Lu Ming's physical body was sealed and his cultivation was suppressed. He couldn't cause any trouble. They planned to suppress Lu Ming here and see how long he could last.
Lu Ming sat cross-legged on top of the magma without moving.
He entered a mysterious state and forgot everything. He only instinctively comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and the Intent Realm of Heaven and Earth.
Time passed quickly like flowing water. Day after day passed.
In the beginning, the Patriarch of the Zhou Clan would come here every seven days to interrogate Lu Ming. Later on, he came once a month …
In the blink of an eye, a year had passed.
Lu Ming had been suppressed here for a full year.
In a cave abode of the Zhou Clan, the Patriarch of the Zhou Clan sat cross-legged. His palm was burning a tortoise shell.
This tortoise shell was Dandan.
"Little thief, I told you that you can't do anything to me. Just wait for your death!"
Dandan shouted in the tortoise shell.
When the flames dissipated, the Patriarch of the Zhou Clan looked at the tortoise shell in his hand with an extremely serious expression.
In the past year, he had used all kinds of methods, but he couldn't do anything to Dandan. He couldn't kill it no matter what.
This shocked him and made him feel more and more afraid.
Moreover, he had also heard that Lu Ming had been suppressed in the Burning Divine Earth Flame for a year and had not moved at all. He had actually endured for a full year. All of this made Patriarch Zhou feel a sense of horror. He could not calm down.
At this moment, a figure walked in. It was the Patriarch of the Zhou Clan.
"How is Lu Shaoqing?"
The Patriarch of the Zhou Clan asked.
"That kid still hasn't said a word. He really deserves to die!"
The Patriarch of the Zhou Clan gritted his teeth.
"We can't continue like this. That kid and this tortoise are too evil. We can't let them live. Let's wait for another three months. If that kid still doesn't speak after three months, we'll kill him. And this tortoise, after we kill that kid, I'll go out and ask a Supreme to destroy this tortoise!"
The Patriarch of the Zhou Clan said.
"Alright!"
The Patriarch of the Zhou Clan nodded helplessly.
If they killed Lu Ming, they wouldn't be able to obtain the Paradise Treasure. All their efforts would be in vain.
However, keeping Lu Ming alive made the Patriarch of the Zhou Clan increasingly flustered. Lu Ming was too evil. Keeping him alive was too dangerous.
In the underground cavern, Lu Ming was still sitting cross-legged above the lava. The Essence Sealing Pagoda hovered above his head, suppressing Lu Ming.
He couldn't use his Veritable Essence Energy, bloodline, or state.
However, just at this moment, a scarlet light suddenly spread out from his spine.
Slowly, the scarlet light grew denser.
In the end, the scarlet light flourished, suppressing the color of the purple-red lava. The entire underground cavern was filled with a scarlet light.
Then, a drop of blood spread out from Lu Ming's spine and hovered above Lu Ming's head.
This drop of blood was scarlet and crystalline. However, it seemed extremely cold. Boundless killing intent spread out from it. Moreover, it had a supreme might that filled the entire underground cavern.
"Whoosh!"
Lu Ming's eyes, which had been closed for a year, suddenly opened.
"Third bloodline! This is my third bloodline!"
Lu Ming's eyes shone. After sitting here for a year, his physical body and soul had gone through many tests. Now, he finally awakened his third bloodline.
