Star Trace Gate

Ren also sat cross-legged under the blazing sun and the natural fire, his eyes fixed on the woman who was going against the flow and using her broken body to defend herself against the horde of burning corpses. He felt inexplicably touched, feeling a little sad and regretful.

That woman was his wife who lived in this building. Before the mission began, he also prepared a birthday ceremony for this strange woman.

However, Ren Ye was mainly for his own mission, but the wife was unaware of this. She was very happy, and she seemed to still be "living" in the reflection of the past.

Before leaving, Ren was moved and whispered to her that the sun would always shine here and sweep away all the dust and haze.

But my wife said, I'll wait for you to come home.

As time goes by, the river of time seems to flow into the past, and everything returns to the day when Tiangong Tower was burned down by fire.

That day, a young man got off work early and went home to prepare a thoughtful birthday dinner for his wife, with candles, cake, and a table of home-cooked meals.

The two of them drank some wine, chatted and made wishes, and perhaps even discussed whether they should have children in the future...

The candles went out and the dinner ended.

The young man followed Song Mingzhe's instructions and went to investigate the case of the missing fire talisman from the inner treasury.

My wife walked me to the door, smiled and whispered, "I won't sleep. I'll wait for you to come back."

The young man turned and left, but never entered the house again; while the woman waited, but what she waited for was an exploding fire that burned every inch of the building.

The couple were clearly in the same building, but they would never see each other again.

The good night I said before going to bed every night seemed to echo ethereally in the ruins.

Under the blazing sun and fire, Ren's eyes turned slightly red. He saw with his own eyes that the woman tried to stop the burning corpse for him, but was eventually annihilated by her own kind and dissipated into a blood mist.

If possible, Ren also wanted to kill her and take her back to Qingliang Mansion.

But when she thought about it carefully, she realized that she was not the person she was waiting for, nor was she the husband who prepared the birthday dinner with all his heart. He just played that role.

If she saw that she was not him, she might be disappointed. Moreover... she was just a remnant soul from the past, a special existence in the Star Gate, and she should not be able to be resurrected in Qingliang Mansion.

"call……!"

Ren Ye looked at the blood on the ground, suppressing his inner excitement. He just moved his fingers to control the Night Wanderer, trying his best to stop the group of burning corpses that were rushing towards him.

……

upstairs.

Since Xiao Shuai was carrying Song Mingzhe's soul, the siege he suffered was much more fierce than that suffered by others.

He was in a dark corridor, covered in blood, fighting hard and gradually becoming exhausted.

The star core in his abdomen was like a dried-up well, and the star source that gushed out was no longer dense and thick, but as light as mist, flowing slowly.

Xiao Shuai felt his arms gradually becoming heavy, his movements becoming slow, and the magical light was faltering...

"Hoohoo!"

He was breathing heavily and looked up, only to see that the burning corpses around him were still like ants, impossible to kill or eliminate completely.

"Oh!"

Xiao Shuai swung his punch, knocking away more than a dozen cremators, and then his body swayed and leaned against the wall.

"Damn it... I can't bear it anymore. There are too many burning bodies here." Xiao Shuai wiped the blood off his face and asked with all his strength, "Brother, how long do you have? I'm almost dead."

"I was some distance away from you. I rushed over twice, but failed to make it because there were too many burning corpses." Yin Hu said, "The most important thing is that the environment here is a bit unfavorable to me. When the wind blows, the heavenly fires are connected into one piece... Damn, it's very frustrating."

"Xiao Shuai, you really can't hold on any longer?"

The voice of the old cadre sounded.

"Yes... I have used up all my strength and can't hold on for much longer." Xiao Shuai didn't try to be brave: "I have more corpses burned than anyone else."

"We are some distance away from you. No, you should run first. There is no need to stay in the host's position." The old cadre replied immediately.

Xiao Shuai was stunned for a moment, and whispered, "No, I can't leave. If I leave, my brother will be in danger. He is refining the Heavenly Fire and he definitely can't stand being disturbed. If I let it slip at this time, it would be like selling him out."

"Then you hold on a little longer, I'll try to get over there." The old cadre replied.

Around the first floor, Brother Hong and Yinhu were also fighting hard, but neither of them carried the souls of the Song family. Their situation was slightly better than Xiaoshuai's, but this was only a comparative difference.

For ordinary people with supernatural powers, the difficulty of fighting in this building is comparable to being in a desperate situation.

In the corridor.

"Ong!"

Xiao Shuai raised his right hand and made hand gestures, gnashing his teeth and encouraging himself: "Damn it, a man should keep his promise. You have saved me several times in a row... I will definitely not sell you out."

"boom!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a green armor, flashing with phosphorescence, appeared on Xiao Shuai.

This was a life-saving treasure given to him by his family elders before he entered the migration area. It was of the fourth grade and could withstand a full-strength attack from a fourth-grade strongman.

This kind of super-quality treasure, if used in a third-grade place, would be suppressed by the rules of heaven, and it would be a bit of a waste of talent. But the situation was too dangerous at the moment, so he had to use it even if he didn't need to.

With the Qinglin Armor, Xiao Shuai's defensive ability increased greatly. He continued to fight hard among the burning corpses, and finally fought to the point where his fists were broken and he could only retreat but not kill the enemy.

But even so, he did not retreat a single step. When he could no longer fight, he led the burning corpses around and tried his best to delay.

"Huhu...!"

Heavy gasps were heard, and Xiao Shuai felt dizzy and his willpower reached its limit.

"Damn it, big brother... I'm really going to get mad, when are you going to...?!"

"Weng!!!"

At this moment, a quaint and twisted mirror suddenly appeared on the ceiling above the corridor.

"Whoosh!"

A handsome figure descended from the sky and said softly, "Your captain can always be trusted."

Xiao Shuai looked up suddenly when he heard that, and saw Fat Tan floating in the air, looking at him like a savior.

"Fuck...Captain, Captain...you came at the perfect time." He shouted, almost crying with joy.

"Stand behind me, you buy food tonight and wash the dishes..."

Fat Tan jumped down decisively, rescued Xiao Shuai from the desperate situation, and began to protect him from the burning corpse.

With the captain's protection, Xiao Shuai had some time to catch his breath, and the conditions of both of them gradually became stable.

"Fuck, I can't take it anymore, I really can't take it anymore...You give me 1.2 million and I'm going to bury myself here." Brother Hong's collapsed voice was also heard in the intercom headset.

"Wow!"

At this moment, everyone noticed that the fire in the corridor of the building suddenly became much weaker.

The burning fireworks swayed wildly in the cold wind coming in from outside, and it seemed that they would go out at any time.

"Someone come and pick me up."

Ren Ye's voice rang out.

"I come!"

A voice was the first to respond.

"Damn, it's finally over." Yinhu let out a long sigh.

……

In the flaming cave.

The fire of the Fiery Sun Fire was vibrating wildly and was slowly being sucked up by the Phoenix Fire Furnace.

Ren Ye's forehead was covered with sweat. He divided his attention to perception while controlling the Night Wanderer to protect himself.

To be honest, if this group of cremators had not rushed into the cave to cause trouble, he would have refined the fire and rushed out on his own.

But with these mindless attacks from the burning corpses, he had to do two things at once and fight against two obstacles, which wasted a lot of time.

"Boom!"

The rolling flow of luck irrigated the fire, which slowly floated upwards and was about to enter the furnace.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a figure rushed in from the entrance of the cave and ran towards Ren Ye with big strides: "I'm here to help you!"

"brush!"

Ren Ye opened his eyes with great nervousness, only to see the old cadre bleeding from his abdomen, rushing towards him in an extremely embarrassed manner.

He held a sharp sword in his hand, showing his supernatural powers, and instantly rushed into the group of burning corpses and shouted: "No need to be distracted, I will stop it... Hurry up."

Upon hearing this, Ren Ye closed his eyes again and concentrated on sensing.

"Hurrah!"

The cold wind poured in from outside and drifted across the entire building. The flames suddenly dimmed and much of the remaining fire was extinguished in the wind.

The hot air gradually dissipated, leaving only the violent burning corpses running wildly.

"Boom!"

At this moment, the Tiangong Fire, which had been fighting against Ren Ye for a long time, suddenly flashed with a dazzling light. After vibrating slightly in the air, it whooshed and floated completely into the furnace.

[Congratulations, you have successfully refined the Fiery Sun Fire. ]

The reminder of the star gate is audible.

"brush!"

Ren Ye opened his eyes instantly, stood up suddenly and said, "Damn it, it's done!"

"Pfft!"

The old cadre killed three corpses with one sword, his eyes full of surprise and disbelief, and he said excitedly: "Is the refining finished?!"

"Ah."

Ren also nodded heavily: "Thank you. Let's go out first..."

"it is good!"

The old cadre responded, holding his right hand to his abdomen: "Let's gather on the first floor first."

"Puff...!"

As Ren Ye walked past, there was already a scene of burning bodies everywhere. He supported the old cadre and ran quickly to the exit: "Brothers, the fire is out, let's assemble on the first floor."

"it is good!"

Yin Hu immediately replied: "I'm in the elevator on the first floor."

"I'm here too."

Brother Hong let out a long sigh.

"Brother, the captain and I are together. Let's go around and run back." Xiao Shuai responded.

"Okay, hurry up."

Ren Ye helped the old cadre to the entrance and then jumped up.

“Search…!”

The two of them leapt forward and rushed into the first floor among the dense crowd of burning corpses.

Noisy shouts and footsteps were heard from the intercom.

Ren Ye stood at the entrance of the first floor. He turned his head and was about to look for the elevator when he suddenly heard a loud noise.

"Boom!!!"

An explosive breath surged far away to the north.

Immediately afterwards, a scream came from the headset: "There's something wrong with this corpse burning...!"

Ren Ye was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

Immediately afterwards, a distant sour sound of electricity was heard from the intercom equipment.

"...Sandbag, save me!!!"

"Mushi...sandbag, mushi...!"

A very distant and faint voice came from the intercom. It could be heard clearly, but it sounded like a shout from a long distance away from the microphone.

"Huh? What's wrong?!"

"Who's calling?"

"Brother Hong!"

The shouts of a group of teammates echoed loudly over the intercom.
