Chapter 647: Perish Together

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan exchanged glances.

The couple had a speculation in their hearts.

The sudden deterioration of Heavenly Lord Purple Flame’s injuries might be related to the battle against Xiao Shenji and the others that day.

“Senior Purple Flame…”

The two of them spoke first.

However, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame seemed to know what they were going to say and immediately waved his hand with a smile.

“No need to say more, my dear friends. I am well aware of my own situation.

Originally, I didn’t want Xuan Yang to inform you about this.

But now that you’re all here, I naturally have nothing to hide.”

“Huh… ?”

The few of them were clearly puzzled by Heavenly Lord Purple Flame’s words.

Heavenly Lord Purple Flame continued, “I have planned to make a trip to the lair of the demonic beasts before my death.”

“What?”

Jiang Chengxuan and the others were clearly stunned when they heard Heavenly Lord Purple Flame’s words.

Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain couldn’t help but ask, “Fellow Daoist Purple Flame, why are you doing this?”

Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean also wanted to speak, but he was interrupted by Heavenly Lord Purple Flame with a smile.

“I know what you mean, but ask yourself, with the current strength of our human race, can we be a match for the demon race?

Not at all.

Even with Fellow Daoist Jiang and Fellow Daoist Shen, it’s still not enough.

At the moment.

Since I am nearly at my end, why not take this opportunity to visit the lair of the demonic beasts?

If I can take down one or two Level 6 Demon Lords, it will reduce a lot of pressure for you and the entire human race in the future.”

“But, Fellow Daoist Purple Flame…”

At this moment, Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain, Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean, Jiang Chengxuan, and Shen Ruyan didn’t know what to say.

They could tell that Heavenly Lord Purple Flame had this thought since the moment he knew that he did not have long to live.

Using his life that was about to be exhausted to exchange for the life of a Level 6 Demon Sovereign.

Is it worth it?

The answer is a definite yes.

But that was not how one should look at it.

It required real courage and the willingness to face death voluntarily for the sake of the human race.

Even Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain, Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean, and Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang couldn’t guarantee that they would have the same courage and willingness to face death like Heavenly Lord Purple Flame when the time came.

“Fellow Daoist Purple Flame, do you really have to do this?”

Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean sighed.

Heavenly Lord Purple Flame, however, nodded with a smile.

“Old buddy, after so many years, you should understand me.

Since I’ve said this, I will definitely do it when the time comes.

As for whether you plan to start a war with the demonic beasts after my departure or continue to accumulate strength and wait for the right moment, it’s up to you.

Now, I can only do what I can. The rest depends on all of you.”

With that, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame suddenly waved his hand.

In an instant, numerous spirit wines and delicacies appeared in front of them.

Heavenly Lord Purple Flame said, “Come, come, let’s have a few drinks while we still have time. Also, tell me about the battle between us and the Central Pain.”

As soon as he finished speaking.

Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Heavenly Lord Purple Flame, Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang, Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain, and Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean were sitting with the wine cups in front of them.

They were all filled with sparkling and translucent wine that was filled with spiritual Qi.

Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan and the others couldn’t help exchanging glances.

Immediately, everyone set aside their worries and concerns, instead accompanying Purple Flame to eat and drink.

During the banquet, many interesting anecdotes and topics were discussed, including their recent battles in the Abyss of Celestial Beasts.

This drinking session went on for many days, and it seemed like everyone had cast off their burdens.

Amidst the clinking of cups, the spiritual liquor taken out by Purple Flame quickly ran out.

Then, Jiang Chengxuan, Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain, Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean, and Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang also took out their spiritual liquor.

The merriment continued.

Until several days later,

Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang, Heavenly Lord Everlasting Mountain, and Heavenly Lord Infinite Ocean then bid farewell to Heavenly Lord Purple Flame and returned to their sects and families.

It was only then that Perfected Lord Wind Cloud and the other personal disciples of Heavenly Lord Purple Flame arrived one after another.

Looking at the aged face of their Shifu, each of them couldn’t help but feel a sense of sadness.

On the contrary, Purple Flame remained calm.

He looked at the disciples, pondered for a moment, and said:

“After I leave, remember, do not pride yourselves as disciples of a Soul Formation sect. You must put aside past arrogance and be cautious in your words and actions.

Thus, even after a hundred or a thousand years,

As long as those fellow Daoists are still around, they can ensure the continuation of my Purple Sun Palace.

Have you all remembered?”

Perfected Lord Wind Cloud and the others were stunned.

However, in the next second, they agreed respectfully.

“I will remember Shifu’s teachings!”

“Good!”

Heavenly Lord Purple Flame nodded slightly.

Next, he gave some instructions to Wind Cloud and others before letting them leave.

At the same time.

After Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan returned to Mount Mystic Tai, they entered their own cave abodes.

Preparing to begin seclusion.

As for some family matters, they had already discussed them with Jiang Anran and others on their way back.

Therefore, they didn’t say anything else. Instead, they took out some of their gains from their bodies.

First of all.

It was the section of the Green Dragon Divine Wood.

Jiang Chengxuan found this in Chu Wuyou’s storage ring.

Originally, he was still wondering where he should obtain a treasure like the Green Dragon Divine Wood.

After all, none of the Soul Formation Heavenly Lords he knew had such a treasure.

Unexpectedly, he actually obtained this section of Green Dragon Divine Wood from Chu Wuyou’s storage ring.

Moreover, this section of the Green Dragon Divine Wood was Level 6.

Hence…

As long as his weapon refinement cultivation broke through to Level 6, he could officially begin to try the refinement of the Eastern Green Dragon Flag.

Next was a piece of Mystic Lightning Crystal.

This item was also obtained from their enemy, Heavenly Lord Radiant Sun.

With this item, Shen Ruyan’s Five Lightning Immortal Slayer could be upgraded to a Level 6 Pure Yang True Treasure in advance.

Next was a bottle of Primordial Chaos Heavenly Water.

It was an extremely precious Level 6 body tempering treasure.

With it, Jiang Chengxuan’s body tempering cultivation might be able to break through to Level 6.

At that time, his combat strength would definitely experience another leap.

Finally, there were some Pure Yang True Treasures that they could not use.

They exchanged some of them with other Heavenly Lords.

As for the remaining few, they planned to keep one each as a backup. As for the extra ones, they planned to refine them into Pure Yang Talisman Treasures and give them to Jiang Anran and the others as a trump card in the future.

They sorted out what they were going to do next.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan didn’t waste any more time. The couple officially began their seclusion.

A year later.

Jiang Chengxuan had just refined the section of Green Dragon Divine Wood in his hand when his heart suddenly throbbed.

This forced him to temporarily stop what he was doing and turn to the outside of the cave abode.

Coincidentally, his dao companion, Shen Ruyan, also walked out of her cave abode.

The couple looked at each other and saw a hint of seriousness in each other’s eyes.

At this moment, in a place extremely far away from the human territory.

Suddenly, a blazing light that was like an explosion of the sun rose.

Even from thousands of miles away, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan could clearly feel the terrifying power.

“That is?”

The hearts of the two skipped a beat.

At this moment, a hearty laugh suddenly sounded in the sky.

“Hahaha! Demon Sovereign Divine Eagle, today, I will drag you down to hell with me!”

“Purple Flame, how dare you!”

A sudden angry and terrified roar echoed in the high sky.

“How dare you intrude into our demon territory actively! Aren’t you afraid that my demon race will once again go to war with your human race?”

“Hahaha!

Eagle, today, I only represent myself, not the entire human race.

If your demon race really wants to go to war with my human race because of this, feel free to try.”

“Purple Flame, you’re quite audacious!”

In the high sky, another roar of a Demon Sovereign resounded.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan instantly recognized the voice. It was unexpectedly the voice of Elder Black Tortoise.

However, at this moment, what responded to Elder Black Tortoise was an extremely loud bang.

Following that, a dazzling light, surpassing the brilliance of the sun, soared into the sky.

Accompanied by the furious and unwilling roar of the Divine Eagle Demon Sovereign.

Its aura and the aura of Purple Flame rapidly weakened and dissipated in this instant.

“Lunatic, you lunatic!”

With the eagle’s final struggle, its and Heavenly Lord Purple Flame’s auras finally disappeared completely in the explosion.

ROAR!

At the same time.

A giant turtle, resembling a mountain, covered in countless ancient and simple patterns on its back, emitting an exceptionally ancient and powerful aura, appeared in the divine senses of Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and other Heavenly Lords.

However, this black tortoise, at this moment, had its ancient and tough shell covered with numerous scorched marks.

Even clearly visible were cracks, spreading across most of its shell.

One of its giant claws was broken into two sections.

Thick demon lord’s blood gushed out vigorously from its wounds.

The attack just now had severely injured Elder Black Tortoise, which had lived for countless years, causing it substantial damage..
