Devour

The vast land before our eyes may have once been a fertile plain. Who knows what kind of unimaginable terrible disaster it has experienced, leaving only the bare earth torn into deep gullies and canyons covered with mottled cracks like spider webs.

Countless cracks converged like hundreds of rivers into the sea, towards the terrifying valley in the center that almost split the entire continent in two. The deepest part of it was an irregular circle, like a vortex lantern as big as a planet, carrying a blazing white-blue magnificent flame, supporting all the hopes of the Nine-Layer Continent.

At this time, the fire is at its brightest. The light illuminates the deep abyss like daylight, and it is undoubtedly the brightest layer of the Nine-Layer Abyss. However, after reaching its peak, the brilliant flames will gradually turn to low, and night will eventually come.

"This is the abyss. It is so close to the source of the divine fire, but the heat is not as high as the sea of ​​​​bitter flames, nor as dazzling as the sun." Cheng Bai looked up at the incredibly huge source of the divine fire and felt awe.

Li Tong reminded: "Because the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire is not the sun, but the essence of the fire of life that has been gathered for billions of years."

Cheng Bai asked: "Is the great secret of the Nine-Layered Abyss the Nine-Sky Mysterious Fire?"

Li Tong pointed in the direction and said, "It shouldn't be all of them. Look at the Temple of Life next to the Divine Fire Source. It contains mysteries that are no less than the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire."

No one had noticed that on the flat area next to the vast valley stood a strange and bizarre magnificent palace, whose color blended perfectly with the surroundings, like a natural landscape formed by nature.

It was not invisible, but it showed a variety of unpredictable colors, from yellow to green, from blue to white, like a chameleon changing with the slightest changes in the surrounding environment. Lian Bai's spiritual eyes were also deceived for a while, mistakenly thinking it was part of the continent. After Li Tong's reminder, he suddenly realized the difference.

There is only one kind of fairy gold that meets the corresponding wonderful properties.

Cheng Bai's heart was shocked. He observed and identified the material again and again and said, "Such a huge palace, could it be made entirely of Yuhua real gold?"

The palace is square and regular in shape, 108 li long and wide, and 36 li high. From the four directions, each side is supported by a dome supported by 19 huge columns.

The sturdy and tall columns are intricately carved with three-dimensional animal heads facing outwards, each with a different appearance and no one repeated. There are a total of 72 feathered real gold columns on the four sides, like 72 majestic demons, loyally guarding the sacred temple.

Li Tong said truthfully: "Of course there is more than one kind of material. More than half of it is indeed made of real gold."

"How much immortal gold will it cost?" Cheng Bai was secretly shocked.

Before anyone could ponder the origins of the Temple of Life, a blinding streak of lightning shot out from the direction of the temple, plowing the ground as it passed, leaving long and narrow trenches stretching for thousands of miles, as if an incomparable giant blade had slashed across it.

The shocking impact failed to extinguish the lightning. The slightly embarrassed figure at the end of the ditch stopped falling, turned around, jumped up and stood straight.

He didn't care about the scratches on his cloud steel armor, and casually brushed off the dust and debris, saying in a voice that could be heard over a thousand miles away: "Lord Yi has indeed been reborn, and his skills are still as good as ever!"

The giant pillars of the Temple of Life soar into the clouds and are widely spaced apart, like huge open doors.

The majestic figure of Yali strode out of the hall and shouted at the figure in the distance: "Ji Dong, your 'Reincarnation Reversal' can avoid all fatal disadvantages, even Mingfeng. This time I promise not to kill you, but only cripple you!"

Ji Dong walked quickly towards the palace, and although his voice was low, it spread widely: "Are you capable enough? Come and give it a try."

Cheng Bai seemed to understand something, and said suddenly: "Yayu's body was destroyed by Mingfeng, so he must have hidden the holy fetus in a safe place beforehand, so that it can be reborn quickly when the conditions are right. What about reincarnation?"

Li Tong responded, "It is the vision ability of the samsara body. If it encounters a fatal threat that can kill it, it can immediately go back to the state and location before a certain time. If used properly, it is almost equivalent to immortality."

Cheng Bai was a little dazed after listening to this, and secretly exclaimed: "Isn't this just loading the save file at any time? The talents of the emperor's sons are really more amazing than the other!"

The Temple of Life was filled with shadows, and figures of different heights and sizes walked out from behind the columns one after another.

The giant beast Binghuo, who was as tall as an iceberg, and Minjin, who had transformed into a human form, walked in front. The Red Dragon Lord, whose dragon claws were cut off, clearly had his hands and feet intact.

Then came the towering giant Kua E-yang, who said in a loud voice: "The son of the Emperor of Samsara is very capable! This is the first time I have seen a human master who single-handedly defeated all eight of us and sent us back to the Temple of Life to be reborn."

Then came the fierce and sinister Xiyi Ghost King, the charming Yin Mei, the strong and majestic Bao Cha, and the fake smile on Gao Xu's face. All the lords stood in front of the palace and stared at Ji Dong.

Gao Xu hissed, "All of us masters are here, and you are all alone and you still want to make trouble? I will make you wish you were dead but not alive!"

Although the Blood Demon Lord spoke in a tough tone, he was actually a little afraid in his heart. He hoped to avoid the trouble of reincarnation and threaten the other party by means of a group fight.

How could Ji Dong not hear the weakness in his harsh voice? He laughed out loud and said, "Even if the demons and monsters join forces, what can they do to me? Come on together! Why would I be afraid of being defeated one by one?"

Cheng Bai, who was watching from a distance, thought to himself, "Let alone his strength, Ji Dong can be said to be invincible just by his awe-inspiring aura."

A Pu commented, "This man has some of the same heroic spirit I had when I first started in the martial arts world. But there is no one in the world who is truly invincible. After going through vicissitudes of life, he will naturally not be arrogant."

Cheng Bai was quite impressed: "Without Ji Dong's outstanding performance in attracting the firepower of the lords, how could our group have gone smoothly? Don't let him lose the battle."

Zhai Xufei looked around with his nine heads, wondering, "Where are the other two princes' teams? There is no reason to miss such a great opportunity."

Bei Tingjun said: "They must be waiting and watching, waiting for Ji Dong to lead away the major lords, and then they will seize the opportunity to fight for the source of the divine fire."

The masters who are able to delve deep into the abyss all want to obtain the Nine-Sky Mysterious Fire, and Cheng Bai also came with this strong desire.

Li Tong whispered to Cheng Bai, "Now is not the best time to seize the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire. The fire is extremely strong and they cannot take it away. We need to wait until nightfall, when the divine fire fades."

Ji Dong stepped over the ravines, stared at the many enemies in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "In all the previous battles, you relied on hiding the Holy Embryo in the Temple of Life to avoid fatal attacks. That is to say..."

Wen Jin's eyebrows were raised, her beautiful eyes were frosty, and she snorted coldly, "What do you want to say?"

Ji Dong inhaled and exhaled his true energy to perform the Nine Transformations Against Heaven Technique, and nine powerful cyclones of energy condensed on the surface of the acupuncture points around his body. The invisible sea of ​​thunder emerged again, and the rumbling sound was shocking.

Yin Mei had suffered a great loss before, so she was horrified when she saw this and exclaimed, "Be careful! When he uses this move, his magic power will be greatly enhanced."

Binghu proudly stepped forward and said, "There are many ways to enhance power. Who among you has not studied a few of them? Simply enhancing your magic power may not be enough to overcome all battle situations. I don't believe you can fight eight people alone!"

"...That is to say, your weaknesses are all in the Temple of Life." Ji Dong continued the previous sentence in a mysterious way, with a proud smile on his face, and used his ultimate move: "Clouds Beyond the Sky!"

In an instant, he turned into a sharp flash of lightning, and at the maximum speed of light, he bypassed the lords present and rushed into the temple from the side of the Temple of Life.

The eight lords were unable to stop the swift charge, but they did not show any panic.

Ghost King Xiyi lowered his head and spat, "Bah! Do you really think that he is the only one who has thought of something new and strange? His Royal Highness the Prince is watching inside."

Baocha looked around, as if asking someone: "Do we need to go in?"

An old and majestic voice came from the Temple of Life, echoing over the entire continent: "Come in, all of you! The three forces outside are guests. If you enter the temple, I will entertain you. Why are you hiding?"

Cheng Bai, who was standing on the observation deck of the Yafang, could only hear the other party's voice clearly, as if he was speaking in his ear. He could not help but feel a chill in his heart: "To use only the power of sound waves to penetrate the protective barrier of the immortal weapon to communicate, the skill is unfathomable. Even if it were the eight lords combined, they would definitely not be able to do it."

At the edge of the continent of Chongyuan Gully, Cangtian Flying Armor and Yudu Spirit Boat appeared from different directions and slowly approached the Temple of Life.
