The earlier palm strike struck the node of this fifty kilometers of desolate plain, shaking the ground and creating large cracks.
After he landed, he found himself in front of a newly formed underground tunnel. Then, according to his memory, Xiao Chen found this tunnel.
According to his memory, Xiao Chen advanced through the many branches of the underground ice tunnel.
Xiao Chen moved very slowly. As it was too cold, he had to stop occasionally to remove the ice from his Alloy Battle Armor.
One hour later, a dead end appeared in front of Xiao Chen, blocked by a thick layer of ice.
At this depth, the underground ice was already as hard as divine material. Logically speaking, it should be very hard to break.
However, if Xiao Chen did not go the wrong way, the ice wall in front should be a weak spot.
Xiao Chen soared into the air and punched. He immediately felt his palm go numb, which was very uncomfortable.
The ice blocking the way only left a faint mark, not much of a ripple.
"Did I remember wrongly?"
Xiao Chen let out a soft cry of surprise. Then, he prepared to throw another punch.
"Ka ca!
Ka ca! "Cracks appeared in the ice wall in front. Then, it exploded with a loud 'bang.'
Xiao Chen felt that something was wrong. He crossed his arms in front of him, and the formation in the Alloy Battle Armor activated automatically, forming a lightning shield in front of him.
"Pa!"
However, it was still too late. "Pa!" The impact of the explosion instantly knocked Xiao Chen into the air.
The entire underground once again shook violently. The ice above their heads seemed to be swaying as well, and pieces of ice and rocks kept falling off.
Xiao Chen relaxed his hands and took a look. Then, his expression changed slightly as he executed the Divine Firmament Nine Variations.
Like a sudden clap of thunder, he dashed towards the opened passageway in front of him. Just as he disappeared, a figure appeared in front of him. The instant he disappeared, the ice wall behind him collapsed.
When Xiao Chen looked back, the path he had come in was completely blocked. The terrain changed again.
"It will probably be difficult to turn back now."
When Xiao Chen jumped down, he did not think too much about it. Now, he discovered that it was indeed a problem.
I should continue. As long as I can benefit the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame and the Universe Origin True Flame, it will all be worth it.
Following the route in his memory, Xiao Chen broke through the weak points one by one and connected them together, going deeper and deeper.
The terrain fluctuated for a few times. The fighters who were training above Ice and Snow Wilderness were all scared and didn't know what had happened.
"Found it!"
After a few twists and turns, Xiao Chen finally found a Flame Vein after walking underground for six hours.
When Xiao Chen lowered his head and looked down, the surging flame vein was pure and dense. It was like a surging river flowing continuously.
Even though Xiao Chen was ten thousand li high up in the sky, he could still feel the surging heatwaves assaulting his face.
Fortunately, he had Alloy Battle Armor. Alloy was different from other divine materials, and it could not withstand heat.
If the armor was made of other divine materials, even a Postnatal Divine Body wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Not only that, but the Alloy War Armor also had a very good heat insulation effect, greatly reducing the pressure on him.
"Such pure flame energy."
Pleasant surprise filled Xiao Chen's eyes. He could not truly feel it when he was above ground. However, when he observed it up close, Xiao Chen knew that he had picked up a treasure.
As long as Xiao Chen could absorb a tenth of the flame in this Flame Vein, his Universe Origin True Flame would probably immediately advance to Rank 6.
That would save him at least one hundred thousand Faux God Coins.
As Xiao Chen stood above, his emotions fluctuated. He still felt like he was dreaming.
He really had to thank the person controlling the mastiff to kill him. If not for that person, how could he have comprehended All Things Rejoicing Together?
How could he have comprehended the painting and obtained that drop of Fiend blood?
Otherwise, without the help of the Fiend blood, Xiao Chen would not dare to say that he was a Faux God. No matter how strong a Divine Vein Realm Sovereign Emperor was, it would take at least a hundred years to reach this place.
Of course, it was more likely that they could not sense the eighteen Flame Veins under the Ice Fire Wasteland.
"Boom!"
Xiao Chen opened his palm, and a clump of golden flame appeared. This was the Universe Origin True Flame's Origin Flame, the Heavenly Flame that he obtained in the Kunlun Realm.
"Go."
Xiao Chen gently pushed, and this clump of Origin Flame slowly descended, hovering above the Flame Vein.
The Flame Vein surged endlessly like a gushing river. Xiao Chen sat down cross-legged, and his Soul Energy surged.
Immediately, the Origin Flame spun endlessly.
A suction force was emitted, and a loud sound rang out. Waves of fire surged up from the flame vein below, rushing towards the Origin Flame. The Primordial Truefire's Origin Flame was like a cultivator absorbing Source Liquid. It excitedly absorbed and refined the flames of the flame vein below.
Xiao Chen closed his eyes and circulated his energy, unhurriedly controlling the Universe Origin True Flame's Origin Flame to absorb and refine the flame in the Flame Vein below.
"How slow!"
One hour later, Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes. The Flame Vein was vast and boundless. It was like the sea. Although the Origin Flame absorbed it quickly, it was still insignificant.
At this rate, Xiao Chen would need to spend two or three years before he could absorb a tenth of this Flame Vein.
"No, I can't wait that long."
Determination flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes. Then, he stood up and looked at the Flame Vein, entering deep thought.
The Flame Vein surged and surged non-stop. Where was it heading?
Are the other Flame Veins also surging endlessly, gathering in the same direction?
If I can find the location where these Flame Veins gather, I can save a lot of effort.
However, just this one Flame Vein was somewhat unbearable. How horrifying would the location where eighteen Flame Veins gathered be?
Go for it!
After hesitating for only a second, Xiao Chen made up his mind. He leaped up and withdrew the Universe Origin True Flame's Origin Flame into his body, then jumped into the Flame Vein.
"Whoosh!"
The Flame Vein surged at least ten times faster than Xiao Chen's Movement Technique.
Amid the surging flame, Xiao Chen used his Veritable Essence Energy to fully activate the Alloy Battle Armor, allowing himself to avoid being swallowed up by the Flame Vein.
"That was close. Fortunately, my Alloy Battle Armor has reached 2-Star. Otherwise, I would not have been able to endure it."
Using the Alloy Battle Armor, Xiao Chen barely managed to endure the Flame Vein's torrent. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief.
All that remained was to follow the flow of the Flame Vein and enter the place where the eighteen Flame Veins gathered.
As time passed, Xiao Chen found it increasingly unbearable. Even with the Alloy Battle Armor protecting him, he could not withstand it. Even with the Alloy Battle Armor, his physical body was already bright red, looking like it was about to be cooked.
Xiao Chen knew that he was getting closer to the other Flame Veins. The greatest challenge would be when the other Flame Veins gathered.
The eighteen Flame Veins were split into Yin and Yang. Nine were extreme Yin and nine were extreme Yang. They crisscrossed, appearing complicated and ever-changing.
Master, your Alloy Battle Armor seems to be softening …
The Demon Blood Vulture's voice rang out in Xiao Chen's mind. When he looked carefully, he saw that the Alloy Battle Armor was indeed slowly softening.
Such a discovery immediately flustered Xiao Chen. This was the Alloy Battle Armor's self-protection method.
If the Alloy Battle Armor could not endure it in the end, it would liquefy and flow back into the gloves.
At that time, Xiao Chen would be in big trouble.
What should I do? Without the protection of the Alloy Battle Armor, I will melt in less than seven minutes in this Flame Vein.
Even if the acquired Divine Body awakened once, it was still a body of flesh and blood. Unless one was a true pure-blooded True Dragon, one would not be able to endure such heat waves.
The rate at which the Alloy Battle Armor softened suddenly increased. This startled Xiao Chen. Oh no! I'm about to reach the place where the eighteen Flame Veins gather.
"It's over. I'm going to die in this damn place …"
The Alloy Battle Armor softened into a silver liquid and slowly flowed back into the gloves. However, Xiao Chen still headed for the flame veins involuntarily.
The eighteen Flame Veins that swept through the entire Ice Fire Wasteland gathered here.
Just one Flame Vein was already somewhat unbearable for Xiao Chen. Now, he was at the place where the eighteen Flame Veins gathered and had lost the protection of the Alloy Battle Armor.
How could he survive?
With this thought, Xiao Chen felt that his life would end here.
His physical body grew hotter. Xiao Chen's consciousness turned blurry from the roasting, and his breathing became weak. In his daze, Xiao Chen's physical body sank continuously. Suddenly, a loud sound rang out.
Xiao Chen understood that the eighteen Flame Veins had completely gathered together. Then, he fainted.
In his daze, Xiao Chen opened his eyes and discovered that he was at the bottom of a lake. His physical body was swimming slowly.
"I'm not dead?"
Nine Flame Veins were about to roast me to death. To think that eighteen Flame Veins gathered and did not kill me on the spot.
As far as the eye could see, it was actually a clear lake.
Am I dead or alive? Why am I hallucinating? The place where the eighteen Flame Veins gathered is actually a lake?
