Chapter 240: Gu Fei's Weakness!



"Young Master Gu Fei!"

"I've heard that you can refine the Bodhisattva Return Pill, a treasure pill of the ninth grade. Perhaps one day, you can let this old man witness it firsthand..."

After the appearance of several powerful ancient clans, many of the senior experts from these clans politely approached Gu Fei to greet him. In contrast, no one paid any attention to the Hun and Yao Clans' young leaders.

Seeing this, Hun Feng and Yao Tian couldn't even muster the energy to feel jealous because they were well aware of the vast gap between them and Gu Fei.

Before long, everyone's attention shifted back to the fractured space in the distance. The milky-white light pouring down like liquid had now completely turned the desert below into a sea of molten rock.

*Boom! Boom!*

The waiting continued for roughly three more hours. The fractured space had now expanded from a few feet wide to dozens of feet wide. As the space expanded to nearly a hundred feet, it gradually stopped, forming a milky-white circle of light at the center of the rupture.

"It's time to move..."

Gu Fei opened his eyes and spoke calmly.

As soon as his words fell, a series of sharp wind sounds echoed through the surroundings. Powerful figures shot through the air like lightning, heading directly for the white light circle.

"Heh, Brother Gu Fei, we'll head in first!"

With a polite bow, Huo Xuan and his group, led by Elder Huo Yao, swiftly entered the light circle.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Let's go! We're going in too!"

Without any hesitation, Gu Fei led Gu Nanhai and the two entered the circle.

Before entering, Gu Fei had already prepared himself. He knew that the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame could manipulate human emotions, causing the flame to emerge from within the body. If one harbored strong emotions, even their soul could be burned to nothingness. Once inside the space, it was crucial to remain calm, neither overly joyful nor sorrowful. As Gu Fei's body passed through the light circle, his skin tightened instantly. "Such terrifying heat..."

The first sensation Gu Fei experienced upon entering was as if he had stepped into a blazing furnace. The entire space was filled with a milky-white flame.

Even though Gu Fei had absorbed several different kinds of heavenly flames, he still found the heat almost unbearable. Instantly, he released his heavenly flame to envelop his body, preventing any contact with the milky-white flames.

"I need to get out of here first..."

the Demonic Flame had forced him to endure an excruciatingly painful moment.

"I can't allow my emotions to be manipulated again, or the Heavenly Flame will take advantage!"

Gu Fei's gaze turned frighteningly calm as he rapidly formed hand seals, unleashing his internal flame to envelop every corner of his body. The milky-white flames inside him began to retreat, slowly being forced out through his pores.

"As expected of the Demonic Flame, the illusion it created is no less potent than the ancient Bodhisattva Tree!"

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Gu Fei's mind stirred as his heavenly flame surged to his eyes. The world around him shifted; the sea of milky-white flames disappeared, replaced by a misty, white fog stretching over a few dozen feet.

Within this fog, many figures floated, their expressions varying. Some had already been enveloped by the white flames.

Gu Fei had no interest in these people. They had chosen to come here for treasure and thus had to be prepared to face any risk.

"Found him..."

After scanning the area, Gu Fei finally located Gu Nanhai. A faint white flame had already appeared on Gu Nanhai's body, a sign of the Demonic Flame's influence.

Luckily, Gu Nanhai was a four-star Dou Saint, allowing him to hold out longer than most. Otherwise, he would have been in serious danger by now.

"Hah!"

With a flash, Gu Fei appeared beside Gu Nanhai, striking his back with a loud slap. At the same

time, he shouted, his voice laced with a ripple of soul power.

The sound wave penetrated Gu Nanhai's mind, jolting him awake.

"Huff... huff..."

Breathing heavily, Gu Nanhai glanced at Gu Fei, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

"What a terrifying flame, deliberately setting up illusions to stir emotions, causing us to

ignite ourselves!"

"Had you not awakened me, young master, I would have met a terrible fate by now!"

Gu Nanhai spoke, still shaken by the close call.
