Chapter 5810
Shadow Dancer, being of the shadow attribute, was even more severely suppressed in this intensely hot and luminous place.
If Kai hadn’t previously transferred immortal energy to her to protect her heart, she would likely have already fainted.
The other disciples of the Myriad Beasts Sect were in even worse condition.
Eagle Clan disciples’ feathers were charred and ruffled, Tiger Clan disciples’ fur reeked of burning, Snake Clan disciples’ scales were cracked…
Painful groans and suppressed moans rose and fell.
They were like blocks of ice suddenly thrown into a furnace, rapidly melting.
Although Ling Shuang was a disciple of the Heavenly Fire Sword Master and cultivated the “Burning Heaven Sword Technique,” a top-tier fire-based technique,
she was still injured and her meridians were fragile. The influx of such violent and pure fire elemental energy was a tremendous burden for her.
Her face was deathly pale, cold sweat poured from her forehead, and her delicate body trembled slightly. She struggled to circulate her energy to guide the heat, but it was like a drop in the ocean, only slowing the rate of the scorching heat.
Despair once again surfaced in everyone’s eyes.
Having barely escaped their pursuers and entered this legendary secret realm that was said to offer them refuge, were they destined to be burned alive and have their very foundations scorched because they couldn’t adapt to the environment?
Just as they were on the verge of death, almost refined by the flames of this secret realm, a calm, clear voice, seemingly imbued with supreme authority, rang out like a stabilizing force, penetrating the ears of everyone almost overwhelmed by the heat and pain, reaching the very depths of their souls.
It was Kai! He didn’t even glance back at the carnage behind him; he simply raised his right hand, his long, slender fingers pressing gently down on the surging inferno before him. There was no burst of dazzling magical light, no earth-shattering energy fluctuations. But with this press, an indescribable, profound Daoist aura, centered on him, rippled outwards like ripples created by a pebble thrown into a calm lake, silent yet unstoppable! This Daoist energy wasn’t simply using icy cold to combat the flames; it was a higher-level, almost law-like, commanding force! In an instant, a miracle occurred! From Kai’s position, the space within a hundred-foot radius seemed to be gently caressed by an invisible hand. The terrifyingly high temperature, capable of burning metal, instantly subsided like a tamed beast, decreasing to a comfortable level. The chaotic, rampaging fire elemental energy, as if receiving a supreme command, became orderly. The violent elements were eliminated, leaving only the purest, gentlest, and easily absorbed fire elemental energy. Even the omnipresent, blinding light seemed to be filtered, becoming bright but not harmful to the eyes. The burning pain on everyone’s bodies receded like a tide, their scalding lungs instantly cooled, and their rapid, difficult breathing became steady and long. They stared in astonishment at the clearly defined, almost miraculous scene around them. Outside the safe zone, it remained a scene of raging flames, distorted heat, and blinding light—a veritable inferno. Inside, however, lay a paradise of pleasant temperatures, abundant and gentle spiritual energy, and bright, comfortable light! An invisible boundary clearly separated these two drastically different worlds. On the ground, the dark red crystalline soil remained, but the violent fire it contained had been subdued.
Not far away, a small pool of milky-white spring water, exuding a cool spiritual energy and a faint fragrance, gushed forth from a rock crevice that had been completely evaporated by the high temperature.
Around the spring, several clusters of vibrant green, strangely shaped flame-like spiritual herbs even sprouted rapidly!
“This… what kind of method is this?!”
Lie Tian, feeling the rapidly subsiding burning pain within his body and the now active and gentle demonic power, was utterly shocked.
Altering the environmental laws of a world, and with such violent fire-based secret realm laws at that, this could not be explained by ordinary formations or supernatural powers!
This was more like… words becoming law, acting on behalf of Heaven!
Ling Shuang stared blankly at Kai’s back, her beautiful eyes filled with extreme shock and an indescribable tremor.
She understood the difficulty and significance of this better than Lie Tian and the others.
The core law of the Li Huo Secret Realm was fire—violent, primal, and supreme.
Even her master, the Heavenly Fire Sword Venerable, who had cultivated here for thousands of years, could only rely on his own cultivation and the characteristics of his techniques to create a relatively stable cultivation environment in a fixed area.
It was absolutely impossible for anyone to create an oasis within a forbidden zone of flames with such ease and effortless skill as Kai, and the effect was so vast and thorough!
This was beyond her comprehension of power and magic.
Shi Yan and Ying Wu exchanged a glance, both seeing deep awe and relief in each other’s eyes.
The senior’s strength was indeed as deep as the abyss, immeasurable.
Seeing the strange looks from the crowd, Kai simply smiled faintly.
He was a professional at playing with fire.
The ultimate fire source within him was a fusion of multiple flames.
The demonic ultimate fire was many times stronger than the flames in this Fire Separation Secret Realm.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to show off.
“Rest here and heal your injuries as quickly as possible.”
Kai turned around, his expression calm and composed, as if he had just done something insignificant.
He glanced at the newly formed spiritual spring and the fire-spirit grass, and nodded.
“That spiritual spring contains gentle life essence, which has miraculous effects on healing injuries.”
“Thank you so much for your life-saving grace, Senior! Your supernatural powers are beyond comprehension!”
Everyone knelt down in unison, their voices trembling with excitement. They had been
saved from a desperate situation and were now protected and healed by this blessed land; this kindness was like a second life.
Lie Tian, with tears in his eyes, kowtowed heavily: “Senior’s great kindness will never be forgotten by the remnants of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect! Lie Tian hereby swears that if the sect can be revitalized in the future, he will honor Senior as the Supreme Lord, and the entire Ten Thousand Beasts Sect will forever be at Senior’s command!”
Kai raised his hand slightly, and a gentle force lifted everyone up: “No need for formalities, it’s best to focus on recovery.”
Soon, under the arrangement of Lie Tian and several elders who still had the strength, everyone began to settle down in an orderly manner.
