Li Ran pushed his ‘Disillusioned Eye’ to the limit and searched the hall for a long time.
He didn’t even notice any hidden mechanisms.
“How does this key exactly work?” Li Ran looked carefully at the bronze key in his hand.
The key was roughly the size of a palm with a green and black shade. The patterns on it were complicated and exquisite as if some sort of ancient secret resided in it.
Li Ran poured his qi into the key.
Buzz!
The key began trembling.
The green and black layer began to fall off from the key, replaced by a blazing light.
At the same time, Li Ran’s qi was rapidly depleting, continuously being absorbed by the key.
“What the hell?!”
Just when he felt that he was about to be sucked dry, the layers on the key completely fell off and his entire body disappeared from the spot.
Looking at the empty hall, Yue Jianli was dumbfounded.
“What happened?”
—
Li Ran opened his eyes and saw that he was in an extremely large space.
In front of him stood a sea of blazing inferno!
The fiery red lava erupted, and from time to time, it would spew out flames. The strong smell of sulfur in the air, coupled with the extremely high temperature, made it difficult for him to breathe!
In the middle of the lava, there was a raging inferno. The flame had a strange golden color.
Li Ran’s pupils contracted. “It’s a Heavenly Flame!”
Flames condensed by cultivators were called a spirit flame. Flames born from heaven and earth were called Heavenly Flames. It was countless times more powerful than a normal spirit flame.
The Heavenly Flame was not only able to refine transcendent-grade medicinal pills, but it was also able to increase one’s battle prowess.
All the cultivators desire the Heavenly Flame.
However, even though the Heavenly Flame was extremely tempting, it was also accompanied by fatal danger.
If one does not have sufficient strength to forcefully subdue the fire, they might very well die on the spot!
—
Li Ran flew and arrived in front of the Heavenly Flame.
The golden flame was like a liquid, flowing in space.
The powerful might emitted from it caused Li Ran’s heart to palpitate.
“Golden flame, a flame that flows like a stream of water… If I’m not mistaken, this should be the Burning Heaven Sacred Flame.”
That was the legendary Heavenly Flame controlled by the Burning Heaven Emperor. It was said that even qi and space could be completely incinerated by it.
“So this is the true inheritance.” Li Ran suddenly understood. Apart from the Heavenly Flames and lava, there was nothing else in this space.
After using the key once, it had already disappeared.
The meaning was very simple:
Those who had seen the Burning Heaven Sacred Flame have to either subdue it or perish here.
“No wonder he said that the ‘Immortal Emperor Inheritance’ could not be given lightly… This Burning Heaven Emperor is truly ruthless!”
