Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 337 - Devil Fire



Twenty minutes later, Yun Lintian and Lan Shuiying had arrived at the Starry Mountain and headed straight to Hong Wuya's residence. 

When Yun Lintian walked into the room, he immediately saw Yang Chen lying on the bed with burning wounds all over his body. Whether it was his face, legs, or arms, everything had turned charcoal black, and blood could be seen leaking out through the wounds' cracks. Yang Chen's current appearance was too horrible beyond words.

Yun Lintian said nothing and went to Yang Chen's side. He opened Eyes of Heaven and discovered a strange raging fire was rampaging within his body. This fire seemed to possess consciousness as it kept attacking Yang Chen's vital points.

"What the hell is going on?" Yun Lintian turned around to ask Cai Xuwen and Hong Wuya.

"He has been infected by the Devil Fire." A rare solemn appeared on Hong Wuya's face as he spoke. "The Devil Fire is a unique fire that exists in the legend. I don't know how did it appear here in the Flame Bridge. I have already notified Principal Tian about it."

"Devil Fire?" Yun Lintian's brows knitted together. He had never heard about it before. However, since he had suspected this Flame Bridge being the Devil Flame Bridge, Yun Lintian didn't feel anything strange about it now.

"No one has encountered it before?" Yun Lintian asked.

Hong Wuya shook his head. "I had never heard anyone encounter it before." He took a deep look at Yang Chen and continued. "Maybe he has reached the other side of the bridge."

Seeing Yun Lintian frown deeper, Cai Xuwen took this chance to explain. "In the Flame Bridge training ground, there is a long bridge filled with terrifying fires on both sides. The challenger has to cross the bridge in order to clear it. However, no one has ever reached the other side before until now."

Yun Lintian fell into contemplation. Perhaps it was as Hong Wuya said, Yang Chen probably managed to reach the end of the bridge and encountered something. After all, he possessed the Sun Overlord Profound Vein. Fire could not harm him much. 

Yun Lintian put these thoughts aside first and focused on Yang Chen's body. Since he had no idea how to deal with this Devil Fire, he could only try it with a general method first.

Yun Lintian flicked his hand slightly, and a few silver needles immediately pierced into Yang Chen's Soul, Heart, and Heaven Gate, protecting them from the Devil Fire's attacks. He then limited the Devil Fire's movement by using silver needles mixed with water-attribute energy.

Unfortunately, the Devil Fire seemed to treat Yun Lintian's water-attribute energy as nothing. It could not hinder the Devil Fire in the slightest. On the contrary, it made the Devil fire more violent and move around faster than before.

Seeing this, Yun Lintian's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly tried to use his lightning-attribute energy to fight with it. Surprisingly, the Devil Fire had slowed down almost an instant and started to struggle under the lightning cage.

However, Yun Lintian knew this move could temporarily restrict the Devil Fire. If he wanted to get rid of it, he still needed vital water-attribute energy.

His mind spun rapidly, thinking of a solution. Suddenly, he turned to Hong Wuya and said. "Senior Hong, I'll have to trouble you to contact Palace Master Han. If she's not available, you can contact her disciple, Lin Xinyao."

Hong Wuya nodded readily, and his figure vanished from the room afterward.

During this time, Yun Lintian tried his best to stabilize Yang Chen's injuries. No matter how hard he tried, Yang Chen's wounds could not recover in the slightest because of the Devil Fire's existence.

A few minutes later, Hong Wuya appeared in the room with Lin Xinyao and Mumu.

"I have brought her here." Hong Wuya said.

Lin Xinyao glanced at Yang Chen and turned to stare at Yun Lintian. She didn't know why Yun Lintian needed her here, but she could guess it should be related to Yang Chen's injuries.

"Miss Lin, please come here. I need you to inject your ice-attribute energy according to my guidance." Yun Lintian, who was now sweating profusely, beckoned Lin Xinyao.

Lin Xinyao said nothing and walked to Yun Lintian's side. Her body language was evident; she was ready to take action at any time.

Yun Lintian quickly told Lin Xinyao to inject her profound energy and guided it to surround the Devil Fire. The result was, as Yun Lintian had expected, the Devil Fire was thoroughly restricted by Lin Xinyao's powerful ice-attribute energy around Yang Chen's chest area, unable to break out of the circle.

"I'll force it out now. Senior Hong, please prepare to capture it." Yun Lintian said solemnly.

Hong Wuya's face turned serious, and he started to mobilize his profound energy, preparing to capture the Devil Fire.

Yun Lintian held an extensive silver needle in his hand. He took a deep breath to calm himself down. His eyes were fixated on the violent Devil Fire attentively for a while before piercing the needle right through it.

At the same time, he quickly injected his lightning-attribute energy down, along with the silver needle. The Devil Fire immediately struggled hard, but it could not do anything against the combination of Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao's power.

Seeing the Devil Fire become weaker, Yun Lintian didn't hesitate to use another hand to burst Yang Chen's chest open and force the Devil Fire out.

Instantly, a black fire that had an appearance like a western fantasy devil creature with two long horns and wings appeared before everyone's sight. At this moment, Hong Wuya swiftly waved his hand and entirely confined this Devil Fire, leaving it no way to escape.

Roar—

The Devil Fire struggled to break the confinement, but it was futile. A moment later, it suddenly stopped its action and let out an angry roar. Its roar was akin to a scream of an abyss creature in a horror movie.. The pitch was extraordinarily high and hoarse, making everyone present feel their heads were about to burst.
