Chapter 1806: Gatekeeper!
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“Fire Recall!”
Lieyan Yuan’s eyes were burning, and his entire body was overflowing with lava. His gaze seemed like it could burn the world into ashes.
Even a powerful shadow being would be annihilated instantly if they dared show their face here, Qin Lie concluded.
Almost all the fire energy in the universe was being pulled to Lieyan Yuan. It was as if it boiled because he breathed, and exploded because of his bloodline.
The fire energy in this corner of the galaxy had grown several hundred times stronger in just a short time!
Lieyan Yuan’s aura slowly climbed to the peak. Due to the sudden infusion of energy, he looked like he would enter the ultimate realm of fire at any moment.
“Sizzle!”
Qin Lie’s other hand gripped the Flame Devil King’s life crystal tightly as if he sensed a familiar presence.
The life crystal had turned burning hot during this time. The fiery patterns engraved into its surface were shining and circulating slowly.
The fire Spirit of Void and Chaos, the fire qilin, was currently seated on top of Qin Lie’s wide shoulder.
The fire spirit was screeching excitedly as if cheering for the creation of the hottest place of the galaxy.
The Flame Devil King’s life crystal and the fire spirit were both anomalies in this universe. They were loved by the laws of fire.
That was why they were excited by Lieyan Yuan’s crazy action.
“Not good…”
Qin Lie did nothing but observe for a moment, and he soon discovered that the realms and worlds which fire energy was extracted from had become incredibly unstable.
Ling Yushi was able to stabilize the unusual phenomenon at Boluo Realm and the Land of Chaos because she had merged with the Geocentric Motherlode. The rest of the realms however, were actually crumbling after losing their most basic source of fire.
This was the same as Molten Rock Purgatory crumbling when he and the fire spirit executed flame consumption and absorbed its fire energy.
In these type of realms, fire energy was the very foundation of existence. That was why they were crumbling after Lieyan Yuan had robbed them of their roots.
“Flame consumption.”
Flames leaped out of his pupils as Qin Lie formed a mental connection with the fire spirit immediately. He then executed the bloodline secret art he had used at Molten Rock Purgatory.
A giant whirlpool of fire fueled by his bloodline power appeared around the fire spirit.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
The fiery whirlpool immediately started devouring the fire energy near it.
“This was the technique you used against the Molten Rock Monarch, wasn’t it?”
The burning Lieyan Yuan had eyes that looked like a pair of burning suns. It was incredibly intimidating.
“The Molten Rock Monarch was just a lackey of the Flame Devil King. All of his knowledge of the laws of fire had come from his master,” Lieyan Yuan said with a cold snort. “Are you comparing me to the likes of him? Do you think I can be dealt with the same method you used against him?”
“Reverse!”
Lieyan Yuan extended a hand from the distance, and billions of tongues of flame joined together to form a whole new law of fire.
“Swhoosh!”
He suddenly dropped his hand, and the fire spirit suddenly vanished from the fiery whirlpool.
“A strange lifeform.”
Lieyan Yuan laughed loudly. Somehow, he had caught the fire spirit across space itself.
“Swhoosh!”
The fire spirit instantly converted itself into a incorporeal form and escaped through his fingers right before he could tighten his hold.
“Yiya yiya!”
The fire spirit hastily returned to Qin Lie’s side while communicating with him. It no longer tried to execute its trademark art.
As expected, Lieyan Yuan was nothing like the Molten Rock Monarch after he had half a foot inside the ultimate realm of fire. Not only was he not afraid of the devouring ability of the Spirit of Void and Chaos, he was even able to teleport the fire spirit to his side with the laws of fire he had comprehended.
If the fire spirit didn’t have the ability to turn into an incorporeal form, it would’ve been captured by Lieyan Yuan.
The fire spirit realized that the burning old man was not a small fry after suffering a small loss in his hands. It quickly grew obedient and cautious.
It was a smart creature. Lieyan Yuan let it escape because he didn’t account for its immaterial form, but he wouldn’t fall for the same trick a second time.
Therefore, it chose to stay close to Qin Lie.
“You are not at rank ten yet.” Qin Lie looked at the fire spirit on his shoulders. “It’s natural that you’re slightly inferior to a master of fire who’s about to enter the ultimate realm.”
He then looked at the Flame Devil King’s life crystal.
The infinite flame at this corner of the universe was still spreading toward the surroundings all this time.
All Lieyan Yuan cared for was entering the ultimate realm, collateral damage be damned. If this sea of fire was allowed to spread to the closest star regions, the lives, the realms, and the worlds there would all perish.
Trillions of lives might be lost because Lieyan Yuan was ascending.
If too many excessively powerful lifeforms were born in the same universe, it would only cause a massive amount of death and destruction.
Realization suddenly struck Qin Lie.
He suddenly understood why the Imperial Soul Monarch had done everything he could to stop other experts from entering this realm.
The Imperial Soul Monarch became the first person to enter the ultimate realm through his knowledge of the soul.
The soul wouldn’t bring endless disaster to the world even if it entered the pinnacle form.
But the same couldn’t be said about other laws of power.
Just like Lieyan Yuan, the Flame Devil King had caused the destruction of fire-based Abyss levels not long after he entered the ultimate realm.
Castor wanted to convert billions of live souls into dead souls that he could control after he entered the ultimate realm.
Soon after, there wasn’t a single live soul in sight after his power had reached its pinnacle form.
Lieyan Yuan hadn’t entered the ultimate realm yet, but the laws of fire he had learned were already enough to destroy many fire-attribute realms and worlds.
Even the fire energy he gathered was spreading to the surroundings and threatening to turn dozens of star regions like Spirit Realm into nothing.
Trillions of lives might be lost because of this.
Every time a powerful being was on the verge of entering the ultimate realm, the universe itself would change because of it. It created a massive imbalance of power.
If experts of this level were allowed to exist in large numbers inside the same universe, any battle between them would signal the end of the universe itself!
The Imperial Soul Monarch had willingly taken the role of a gatekeeper to stop these experts from entering the ultimate realm. He was maintaining the stability of the universe in his own way.
“If Lieyan Yuan could cause this much destruction before he even entered the ultimate realm, then…” Qin Lie said darkly, “I dare not imagine what would happen if he were allowed to succeed.”
“As I thought, one universe doesn’t need too many ultimate experts.”
“I alone, am enough.”
