Chapter 829: Chapter 828 [The Charming Red Lotus Demon]

In the Fire Dragon Pond, Ye Tianchen narrowly escaped death by triggering the Holy Skill of the Buddhist Sect. A Golden Buddha Statue protected Ye Tianchen, allowing him to enter the Flame Red Lotus without being reduced to ashes. During this time, Ye Tianchen helped Tianshuang’er eliminate the Yin Sen Power from the Nine Netherworld. However, just as they were about to make their full retreat, a flaming red lotus, which had been cultivating in the Fire Dragon Pond for countless millennia, awoke. It was almost ready to assume a human form and cast a Divine Skill towards Ye Tianchen and Tianshuang’er.

If it weren’t for the Holy Heaven Prison, an extraordinary treasure, Ye Tianchen would most likely have been unable to escape the Fire Dragon Pond. Fortunately, the Chaos Qi protected him. At the moment when the Golden Buddha Statue on Ye Tianchen disappeared, he dashed out of the Fire Dragon Pond with Tianshuang’er, flying towards the Bronze Gate nearby.

Pa!

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a slender palm shot out from the Fire Dragon Pond, slapping straight towards Ye Tianchen and Tianshuang’er. Both were taken aback, and without a second thought, Ye Tianchen shoved Tianshuang’er towards the door of the Bronze Gate, turning himself to block the slender palm.

”Ye Tianchen...” Tianshuang’er, just having eradicated the Yin Sen Power from her body, was unable to activate her Martial Arts True Power. She could only watch helplessly as she flew towards the Bronze Gate, shouting powerlessly.

”Go ahead, I’ll come out before the Bronze Gate closes.”

Ye Tianchen spoke calmly, with the Holy Heaven Prison over his head. Threads of Chaos Qi descended, attacking the slender palm. This palm, emerging from the Fire Dragon Pond, was extraordinary. Even before reaching Ye Tianchen, as it burst forth from the Fire Dragon Pond, it brought an overwhelming pressure to Ye Tianchen, an unstoppable sensation, instinctively terrifying him.

Pang dong!

Ye Tianchen threw a punch, hitting the slender palm, but it remained unmoved. The palm fell downwards, astonishing Ye Tianchen. Even with his full-force Vajra Divine Fist, he could not budge the slowly descending slender palm. This was the first time such a thing happened, terrifying him. Just how powerful was the existence within the Fire Dragon Pond?

For the first time, a punch could not move the slender palm, even with Ye Tianchen using his full Vajra Divine Fist. It had no effect, and he frowned deeply, quickly employing the Divine Movement Skill to evade. Who knew the slender palm, as it descended, caused no massive explosion, yet was more alarming than a fierce bombardment. Where Ye Tianchen just escaped standing, the slender palm had already arrived, shattering the void, forming a fire vortex. Such Divine Power was terrifying, even a glancing blow would obliterate one’s soul. Ye Tianchen and the red lotus within the Fire Dragon Pond were not of the same power tier. He could only keep dodging, seeking an opportunity to escape.

The red lotus in the Fire Dragon Pond, who knows how many millennia it cultivated, hadn’t fully assumed a human form yet but already had such earth-shattering power, comparable to a demon from the Sun Never Sets Mountain. Ye Tianchen was extremely surprised, swiftly using the Divine Movement Skill to dodge. He did not know what kind of Divine Skill he could use to counter, or rather, no skill he used would be effective against the Red Lotus Demon within the Fire Dragon Pond.

The red lotus form he saw earlier resembled a young woman, completely fiery red, burning with flames, enchanting and seductive, extremely beautiful yet too intimidating to approach. Anyone approaching would be annihilated, too powerful. If such an existence is born, if it assumes a human form, will it be a blessing or a curse? If a blessing, it would be fortunate; if a curse, who in the world could stop it? Probably no one short of an Emperor could withstand it. Red lotus cultivated in the Fire Dragon Pond, amidst the mysterious fire seed between Divine Fire and Demon Fire, for tens of thousands of years. Will it bring blessing to this Martial Arts Great World? Ye Tianchen absolutely believed it to be impossible, only bringing calamity. Unfortunately, he did not yet have the power to shock and kill it, far from it.

Bop! Bop! Bop!

One after another, Flame Red Lotuses appeared around Ye Tianchen, like ghost fires floating. They looked very beautiful, very attractive, but Ye Tianchen dared not admire the falling Flame Red Lotuses, utterly startled, displaying such a surprised expression for the first time. It was too terrifying. On these Flame Red Lotuses, small seductive maidens slowly appeared, dancing elegantly, all casting bewitching glances at Ye Tianchen, making him momentarily mindless, perspiring heavily, struggling to control himself. He knew that if he lost himself, these Flame Red Lotuses would become the weapon that devours him.

Boom!

Suddenly, those flame red lotuses floating around Ye Tianchen, where enchanting young women were dancing gracefully, all shot out powerful fire beams from their eyes, aiming to devour Ye Tianchen. He was momentarily stunned, but quickly regained his composure, swiftly using the Divine Movement Skill to dodge, and at the same time desperately urged the Holy Heaven Prison to suppress the chaotic energy within, helping him extinguish these fire beams.

At this point, the only thing Ye Tianchen could rely on was the Holy Heaven Prison. It’s a mysterious treasure, the strength of which is unknown. The chaotic energy within it is the most fundamental power in the universe, and even throughout the entire Martial Arts Great World, evolved over billions of years, not a trace of it can be found. It is precisely with the protection of this chaotic energy that Ye Tianchen could persevere until now.

”Chaos Qi, shock!” Ye Tianchen shouted in a low voice, desperately urging a strand of Chaos Qi to suppress the incoming fire beams aiming at him. In an instant, all the fire beams vanished and dissipated in mid-air, much to Ye Tianchen’s shock. The power of Chaos Qi increasingly exceeded his imagination.

In an instant, all the fire beams around Ye Tianchen disappeared, and the flying flame red lotuses were gone too. Ye Tianchen turned around, quickly flying toward the bronze door. He dared not battle the Red Lotus Demon in the Fire Dragon Pond, it was not the right time nor at the right level. Staying here, even with the shelter of the Holy Heaven Prison and the powerful Chaos Qi aiding him, he couldn’t possibly rely on the Holy Heaven Prison every time.

Ye Tianchen clearly knew that he had to escape now. As for the Red Lotus Demon Spirit in the Fire Dragon Pond, to deal with her would require a long period of cultivation. Furthermore, the Holy Heaven Prison was too powerful. Even with a bottomless dantian like his, he could not supply the Martial Arts True Power. After just invoking the Holy Heaven Prison twice, Ye Tianchen felt somewhat dizzy, his Martial Arts True Power depleting crazily, he could hardly endure it. If this continued, even if the Red Lotus Demon didn’t kill him, he would die from true power exhaustion.

”The Chaos Qi within the Holy Heaven Prison is a precious cultivation treasure; it’s better to keep it. However, what I didn’t expect is that you also inherited the Buddhist Muscle Strengthening Scripture. There’s cause and effect. That old monk came into the Fire Dragon Pond decades ago and cultivated for a full ten years, strengthening the seal on me, otherwise I would have successfully cultivated long ago. Today, killing his heir is also justified...” The Red Lotus Demon’s voice from the Fire Dragon Pond spoke innocuously.

Ye Tianchen couldn’t care about any of this, fully pushing the Martial Arts True Power within him, using the Divine Movement Skill to escape. This Red Lotus Demon in the Fire Dragon Pond had been cultivating for perhaps tens of thousands of years, possibly even hundreds of thousands of years, extremely powerful. The monk she referred to should be the Great Emperor who founded the Buddhist heritage years ago, the one who created the Yijin Jing Immortal Law. That Great Emperor cultivated in the Fire Dragon Pond for ten years, probably not just to forge himself, but also to suppress this red lotus. Even this peerlessly invincible Buddhist Emperor could only suppress it, delaying the red lotus’s cultivation success time, which shows how powerful this red lotus is.

At this time, outside the bronze door, Shuanger had already gone out. When she wanted to rush back regardless of everything, two young disciples of the Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect stopped her. The boy disciple said seriously and understandingly, ”Sect Leader Sister, you have just barely removed the Yin Sen Power from your body. If you go back, you will surely lose your life.”

”No, I must go back, he is still in there, he is still in there!” Shuanger ignored this, still rushing toward the bronze door.

”Senior Sister, Big Brother is a good man. To save you, he risked entering the Fire Dragon Pond. He’s using his life to save yours. If you go back, won’t that mean all of Big Brother’s efforts are wasted?” The girl disciple hugged Shuanger’s left leg and said.

”But...” Shuanger was stunned, tears involuntarily falling.

”Sect Leader Sister, don’t let Big Brother’s sacrifice be in vain,” the boy disciple said sadly as well.

”He won’t die, don’t worry. I believe he will definitely not die. He will come out...” At this moment, Zhang Ruotong walked to Shuanger, despite tears on her face, she forced a smile and said.

Shuangan bit her lip tightly, looking at the exit of the bronze door. At the doorstep, there was a burning incense stick, lit by the boy disciple after Ye Tianchen brought Shuanger in. This incense stick represented one hour, and now it was almost burned to the end, only a hair’s breadth left. Yet, there was no sign of Ye Tianchen coming out from the bronze door. Could Ye Tianchen come out alive? (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
