Chapter 2488 2462 Soul Burning Flames (Second Update)
Chapter 2488: Chapter 2462: Soul Burning Flames (Second Update) Chapter 2488: Chapter 2462: Soul Burning Flames (Second Update) At this moment, a beautiful figure flashed outside the door, Yin Ming came in and smiled, “Ye Chen, your strength has increased, hasn’t it?”
Ye Chen also smiled and said, “I’ve made some gains from this retreat.”
Speaking of which, he looked towards Chu Ying in the Ice Coffin. Although he had infused the Dragonheart Fruit into the Ice Coffin, reviving and awaking Chu Ying completely would still require some time.
It should be about time when he meets with Tu Lanxin as agreed.
Immediately, Ye Chen said to Yin Ming, “Little Ming, I need to make a trip out. During this period, please take extra care of Little Ying.”
The medicinal power of the Dragonheart Fruit is special; it cannot be utilized if stored away in a storage space, hence, Ye Chen could not carry the Ice Coffin with him as before when he goes out.
Yin Ming nodded her head, but suddenly, her expression became a bit strange as she looked at Ye Chen.
That gaze made Ye Chen’s heart feel prickly, and he couldn’t help but ask, “Little Ming, what’s wrong? Are your eyes uncomfortable?”
Yin Ming huffed and said, “Ye Chen, you’re not going out for a woman’s matter again, are you?”
Caught by her words, Ye Chen was momentarily stunned, then a bitter smile appeared on his face!
“This…”
A woman’s intuition can sometimes be really terrifying!
“Exactly as I thought!” Yin Ming pouted, her beautiful eyes inevitably flashed with a hint of resentment.
Ye Chen was all good, but his charm around women was just too, too much!
And those around him were all supreme-grade beauties, each with their own unique styles!
It was practically impossible not to feel jealous!
However, although Yin Ming said this out loud, deep down she had accepted it to some degree.
For such a strong man, shouldn’t it be this way?
Especially since, before her, Ye Chen had already known people like Sun Yi, Xia Ruoxue, and Ji Siqing.
“Forget it, I was just teasing you! I don’t mind.”
“I only wish for your safe return.”
“Don’t stir up trouble.”
“The Divine Kingdom is far more dangerous than the Lingwu Continent.”
…
Three days later, Divine Kingdom, Hua City.
A handsome young man clad in a black robe and wearing a faint smile asked a vendor, “Excuse me, do you know where the Shenxuan Sect is located?”
This person was, of course, Ye Chen.
After the selection competition ended, he had found out the location of the Shenxuan Sect and arrived at Hua City.
After all, Lin Yaqin had helped him in the Endless Sea last time.
In the martial arts journey, every relationship can lead to Karma.
He didn’t want to get entangled too much with Lin Yaqin, the woman filled with a murderous aura.
He knew that with Lin Yaqin’s character, unless you are proactive and assertive, your relationship with her would never change or progress in this lifetime!
Based on Ye Chen’s speculation, Lin Yaqin should now be madly enhancing her strength to kill him, right?
Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn’t help but smile.
Moreover, he now had confidence, that even if Lin Yaqin had already broken through the Great Void, his strength should be above hers!
But upon hearing this, the vendor sized up Ye Chen and revealed a strange expression.
Ye Chen, puzzled, asked, “Boss, what’s wrong?”
The vendor said, “Young man, are you going to Shenxuan Sect? It’s not accessible now!”
“Inaccessible?”, Ye Chen frowned, “Why can’t it be accessed?”
The vendor’s gaze flickered as he said, “Shenxuan Sect is preparing to carry out the Soul Burning Fire Punishment!”
“Soul Burning Fire Punishment?” Ye Chen vaguely remembered hearing about it—it was an extremely cruel torture from ancient times!
As the name suggests, it involves burning martial artists with a mysterious type of Soul Burning Flames!
These Soul Burning Flames were often used by soul cultivators in ancient times as an auxiliary spiritual flame for practicing soul techniques.
At the same time, they were also used by various powers to administer torture within sects to those who committed heinous crimes!
Those burned by the Soul Burning Flames not only have their bodies gradually turned into char, but their divine souls are also seared simultaneously, resulting in unimaginable pain!
Ye Chen had a bad premonition and couldn’t help but ask, “Boss, did someone in the Shenxuan Sect make a big mistake? Why are they using such cruel punishment?”
The vendor replied regretfully, “Alas, the one subjected to the fire punishment is the holy maiden of Shenxuan Sect, Lin Yaqin!
Speaking of which, Miss Lin is said to be extremely beautiful, but she rarely shows up in Hua City. However, it can only be said that since ancient times, beautiful women often have tragic fates. These past days, for some reason, she has been frantically frequenting various Battle Arenas, fighting life-and-death battles!
Her reputation has been growing, and somehow, it attracted Young Master Lei Yunpeng from the Lei family!”
“Young Master Lei, in our Hua City, is famously promiscuous, and he became infatuated with Miss Lin’s beauty, deciding to take advantage of her using his status!
Who would have thought, although Miss Lin looks like a Heavenly Immortal outwardly, deep down, she is as fierce as a kill god! She didn’t care about his status or family background at all and directly attacked, intending to kill Young Master Lei!
Although Young Master Lei, with his fearsome family background, survived using life-saving measures, he was so severely injured that his foundation was destroyed…”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen’s expression suddenly turned cold, and a terrifying killing intent burst forth from him, shocking the vendor standing in front of him, who looked at the young man in the Sealed Gate realm in complete horror!
At this moment, he felt as if his life was no longer in his control, and just one glance from Ye Chen could obliterate him both in body and soul!
Ye Chen took a deep breath, suppressing his extreme killing intent, and asked the vendor, “Miss Lin, is she alright?”
The vendor trembled slightly and answered, “Lin… Miss Lin, there’s nothing wrong with her now, it’s said that she’s been imprisoned within Shenxuan Sect, but her injuring Young Master Lei has enraged the Lei family, and they demand Shenxuan Sect to torture Lin Yaqin to death with the Soul Burning Fire Punishment as an apology to the Lei family!”
…
On the outskirts of Hua City, there is a Baihua Mountain Range, which is eternally spring-like and blossoms with tens of thousands of Spiritual Flowers year-round, offering a breathtakingly beautiful scenery. Within this mountain range lies an ancient and elegant building, resembling a giant dragon nestled among the flowers.
This is the location of Shenxuan Sect.
In Hua City, Shenxuan Sect is considered a prominent force. The scale of the sect isn’t too small—it can barely be called a Major Sect, but just barely, its strength and heritage are vastly different from elite forces.
It is said that Shenxuan Sect has a long history, founded by a disciple who left a super sect in ancient times, and had its moments of glory.
However, after many years, Shenxuan Sect has declined and is no longer considered powerful in the Divine Kingdom.
But for Lingwu Continent, it is still regarded as high as the heavens.
Within Shenxuan Sect, there are five thousand disciples; the strongest among them is the current sect master of Shenxuan Sect, at the Early Stage of Disaster Slaying!
