Chapter 507: The Truth Behind the Sacred Flame

If that giant hand had suddenly grabbed them and brought them before Immortal King Chenhan.

The scene was too terrifying to imagine. They did not even dare look at it, let alone think about it.

After a moment, Tushan Shanhe frowned and transmitted to Xiao Shou, "We’ve returned to the land Ah Qing created. Every single person you moved away has been captured and brought back."

"No way! He can actually teleport everyone back to himself? Is he even human?"

Hearing this, Xiao Shou could not help gasping in shock as he transmitted back to Tushan Shanhe.

Tushan Shanhe’s silver eyes flashed with a cold light. His voice carried an indescribable meaning as he transmitted back.

"Of course he’s not human... He’s an Immortal!"

"Since you refuse to come out, it seems I’ll have to personally invite you out."

Just as Tushan Shanhe finished speaking, Immortal King Chenhan’s voice suddenly came from outside, accompanied by deliberately heavy footsteps.

The two of them waited nervously yet expectantly for Chenhan to approach, ready to activate the trap at any moment. However, just then, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from outside.

"Immortal Lord, please stop! This humble one has important information to report. Please give this humble one a chance to live."

"Whose voice is that?"

Hearing this, Xiao Shou and Tushan Shanhe both had a bad feeling. Tushan Shanhe frowned and asked.

Xiao Shou thought for a moment before saying, "It seems to be the voice of the Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect."

"Heh... What a fine Celestial Truth Sect. If I am fortunate enough to survive today, I will make sure not a blade of grass remains in the Celestial Truth Sect."

Tushan Shanhe could already imagine what the Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect was about to say. He immediately announced his decision to Xiao Shou.

Hearing this, Xiao Shou’s pink lips moved slightly, but he said nothing. He was not a fool. At this moment, he could also guess what the Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect was about to say.

When it came to traitors, he was not nearly as magnanimous as the heroes and gentlemen in television dramas. However, he faintly felt that punishing the many innocent people in the Celestial Truth Sect for the crime of one person was somewhat unjust.

Yet, as if mocking Xiao Shou’s naive thoughts at that moment, the voices of Immortal King Chenhan and the Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect suddenly sounded from outside.

Hearing the Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect’s words, Immortal King Chenhan seemed to find them somewhat amusing. He let out a cold laugh and asked, "You are merely a lowly citizen of the lower realm. What information could you possibly have that would be worth this King’s sparing your life?"

"In reply to the Immortal Lord, what if it is information related to the death of the Immortal Lord who just died?"

The moment the Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect said this, he not only confirmed Xiao Shou and Tushan Shanhe’s suspicions, but also shocked the people who had been captured and brought back.

Venerable Jian Li immediately unleashed more than a dozen strands of his natal sword energy and slashed toward the Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect. The Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect controlled a mysterious golden-yellow turtle-shell-shaped spirit treasure to block them, making it impossible for Venerable Jian Li to do anything to him for the moment.

The Gate Master of the Ninefold Elixir Gate also summoned a cauldron-shaped spirit treasure and joined the battle.

"Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect, you actually intend to betray our benefactor and submit to the culprit who destroyed the Heaven Origin Realm. You are truly a disgrace to all of us. You deserve to die."

"He is your benefactor, not mine. On the contrary, he is my sworn enemy, someone who has a grudge against me for destroying my sect and is an enemy I can never coexist with."

The Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect fought back against the two of them while roaring angrily, "If he had not released the Terrestrial Fox Black Flame and caused such devastation, how could the disciples of my Celestial Truth Sect have been reduced to almost none, leaving the sect in such decline that only this powerless Sect Master and a few elders remain?"

"That was an accident. Young Master Xiao was also ambushed and transported to the Demon Abyss Realm. He temporarily lost control of his spiritual flame, which resulted in what happened."

"Moreover, Young Master Xiao’s spiritual flame specializes in purifying sins and karmic transgressions. If your disciples were chosen to undergo their tribulation, then they brought it upon themselves."

"Bullshit!"

"Which one of our Celestial Truth Sect disciples has ever committed evil deeds such as murder, arson, robbery, or kidnapping?"

"We accumulated layer upon layer of karma by revealing heavenly secrets for the sake of the Heaven Origin Realm’s safety. How could this possibly be the fault of our Celestial Truth Sect disciples?"

Under the Immortal’s mocking gaze as he watched the spectacle, the cultivators broke into a heated argument. In the end, the Sect Master of the Celestial Truth Sect roared, "Don’t you hate them too? Watching the elders of your sect, your close friends, your beloved disciples, and the disciples you placed great hopes in die one after another in this wicked flame, while you were powerless to do anything, unable even to save them. How many cultivators throughout the entire Heaven Origin Realm died for no reason... Don’t you hate them? Tell me!"

Everyone immediately fell silent.

A deathly silence descended.

Hearing this from within the sphere of Terrestrial Fox Black Flame, Xiao Shou was stunned. Only then did he understand what had happened and why the power of the Terrestrial Fox Black Flame had become so much stronger after he returned.

It turned out that the little flame had not only devoured the Demon Abyss demonic aura, but had also purified the filth and evil of the entire Heaven Origin Realm.
