The strange purple flame was the purest purple in color. It quietly circled around a huge rock that nobody knew what it was, releasing a terrifying heat.
Flames overflowed into the heavens as they surged out from the huge boulder. They soared up to a height of over ten meters while carrying with them the power to burn through everything in its path. It was as if this purple flame was the king of all flames in the world, as long as it reached a place, everything would be burned into nothingness.
In this trance, everyone was still under the illusion that as long as this cluster of purple flames was strong enough and powerful enough, then the entire universe would return to the primal chaos.
"What a terrifying strange fire!"
Regardless of whether it was the four great clans or the royal family, they all needed to do their utmost to barely resist the power of the purple flames. Even the Patriarch of the Four Great Families and the Imperial Dragon Lord had to release a large amount of strength in order to completely resist this attack.
Looking at the strange purple fire that finally appeared in front of them after a long period of anticipation, everyone fell into the same kind of absent-mindedness.
His eyes were full of greed and fear.
Towards strange purple fire, they were all filled with anticipation, even in their dreams they wanted to tame them. However, throughout countless years, no one had been able to truly subdue strange purple fire. Not only that, those who wanted to forcefully subdue it ended up dying in body and spirit. So much so that when they faced strange purple fire s, those that were not under their control would feel fear in their hearts.
Only after a long while did everyone come to their senses.
"I never thought that this time, it would actually be us, the five of us, who found the strange purple fire almost simultaneously!"
Clan Head Nangong looked around before speaking slowly.
"The five factions have found each other at the same time. Next, we'll have to rely on our own strength!"
Baili Family Head smiled lightly.
"That's right, whoever has the ability to tame this strange purple fire, he will be the owner of it."
"Everyone, you have to rely on your own abilities to compete fairly."
Patriarch Xue and Clan Head Wang both nodded their heads.
"Alright!"
The Imperial Dragon Lord was indeed the strongest out of everyone here.
It was just a simple good word, but the aura it emitted far surpassed that of the Patriarch of the Four Great Families.
The five fell silent as soon as they heard his words.
They looked at each other, none of them moving forward.
Time passed minute after minute. It was unknown how much time had passed. Finally, one of the five people stepped forward.
"Since none of you are moving, I'll give it a try first."
As the Clan Head Nangong spoke, his footsteps moved closer to the strange purple fire.
However, his steps finally came to a halt within thirty steps. After which, no matter how much effort he used, he was unable to continue moving forward, even if it was merely a single step.
He stopped and began to try. He used his spiritual will to communicate with the purple flames and subdue it.
"Boom!"
The result was without suspense. Almost at the same time Clan Head Nangong released his divine sense, a terrifying energy fluctuation suddenly exploded out from the strange purple fire.
A heat wave, that carried an aura of annihilation, swept towards Clan Head Nangong. If it wasn't for him escaping fast enough, just this heat wave alone was enough to engulf him.
However, even so, the Clan Head Nangong was still in a sorry state. His clothes were tattered, and even his head of white hair, which had the demeanor of an immortal, became tattered beyond recognition.
"The few of us will also give it a try."
Baili Family Head, Patriarch Xue, and Clan Head Wang followed closely behind.
The results were exactly the same, and their steps all stopped at a distance of thirty steps. And then, he and the Clan Head Nangong suffered the same fate.
They were all bedraggled.
"I'll do it!"
Looking at Patriarch of the Four Great Families who was in a sorry state, the strongest out of the five finally stepped forward.
30 steps, 29 steps, 28 steps, 27 steps …
Twelve steps, eleven steps, ten steps.
As expected of the strongest Imperial Dragon Lord, the distance between him and the strange purple fire, quickly broke through 30 steps.
After that, they continued to move forward until they were within ten steps. Only after that did they stop.
"Hu!"
Imperial Dragon Lord took a deep breath, his entire body drenched in cold sweat.
He had already reached his limit at the final ten steps, and was unable to continue breaking through.
A moment later, Imperial Dragon Lord began to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead and tried to use his divine will to hook the strange purple fire.
"Boom!"
An unprecedented powerful aura exploded forth from the strange purple fire.
"Bang, bang bang …"
Imperial Dragon Lord's figure retreated explosively.
In the blink of an eye, he had already retreated several hundred meters away.
Every step he took caused a huge boom to echo out.
"That was close!"
As he stopped in his tracks, Imperial Dragon Lord could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Thanks to his timely reaction just now and the aid of his stomp on the void, he was able to deflect a lot of the impact. Otherwise, even if it hadn't been engulfed by the heat wave, its physical body would have been severely injured by the raging force.
… ….
Just when the imperial city's Patriarch of the Four Great Families and the Imperial Dragon Lord had begun to try to subdue the strange purple fire, Lin Feng finally arrived at the enormous palace, a hundred kilometers in radius.
"What a scorching aura!"
Just like the Four Great Clans and the royal family, Lin Feng could already feel a kind of overflowing heat wave when he was in such an area.
As he stopped in his tracks, Lin Feng began to carefully feel the various auras contained within this heat wave.
"According to the analysis of the heat wave's aura, the source of the heat wave is most likely the second ranked Emperor Beiming Yan in the twenty-seven different types of fire in the starry sky!"
After a moment, Lin Feng's eyes suddenly widened, radiating bright light in all directions.
"Sou sou …"
Travelling in the air, his footsteps continuously approached the source of the heat with the fastest speed possible.
Within a few breaths of time, Lin Feng's footsteps had already stopped in front of a huge hall.
He could clearly feel that the monstrous heatwave within the hall, as well as the source of the heatwave within the surrounding hundred kilometers, was coming from the hall in front of him.
"What kind of palace is this?"
Looking at the golden palace that was more than ten meters tall, Lin Feng muttered to himself before releasing his spiritual will.
"So big!"
Lin Feng's powerful telepathic thoughts could cover an area of over a hundred kilometers.
However, even then, even with his boundless The Power of Spiritual Perception, he was still unable to see the entire hall.
Not only that, it seemed as if the place he was looking at was just the tip of the iceberg.
"Forget it, whether or not it is a Emperor Beiming Yan, we will know after we enter and take a look!"
After he finished speaking, Lin Feng took a step forward.
"Boom!"
At almost the exact instant that he'd set foot inside, a monstrous heat wave that was even more intense surged over.
Even Lin Feng had to release a huge amount of power in order to withstand the scorching aura.
"Weng …!"
The Azure Thunder Heavenly Flame and the Red Lotus Fire in his body also trembled slightly at this moment.
That feeling was as though they had met something that they were afraid of.
"To be able to cause the Azure Thunder Heavenly Flame and the Red Lotus Fire to feel fear, it must be a Emperor Beiming Yan!"
An uncontrollable excitement grew in Lin Feng's heart.
He walked quickly, step by step, towards the source of the burning sensation.
Almost every step he took forward increased the fear he felt from the Azure Thunder Heavenly Flame and the Red Lotus Fire. In the end, this fear turned into a violent trembling.
Finally, as they continued forward, a group of strange purple fire appeared in their line of sight.
"It's really the Emperor Beiming Yan!"
As his gaze fell upon the resplendent purple flames, Lin Feng was instantly stunned in place.
Even though he had already made some guesses about the matter, it didn't affect him in the least. The shock that he felt in his heart was still there.
There were twenty-seven different kinds of strange fire in the starry sky, and there were three types of strongest flames. They were respectively the third ranked Glazed True Flame, the second ranked Emperor Beiming Yan, and the Primal Chaos Flame that only existed and only existed in legends.
There were many legends about the Primal Chaos Flame, but the true records had never been recorded before.
It was as if the first ranked primal chaos flame in the starry sky was a legendary flame that only existed in legends. It was impossible to determine whether it was real or not.
"Buzz buzz …"
Almost at the same moment Lin Feng's gaze landed on the Emperor Beiming Yan, the already restless Azure Thunder Heaven Flames and Red Lotus Karmic Flame in his body began to rage even more violently.
It was a sort of mad trembling. It was as if he could feel the fear of death.
