Journey to the West: The Demon Emperor

Chapter 30: Burnt by Fire
Looking at the Long Live Fox King who finally appeared again after many years, Li Yang knew that the time to decide his own destiny had come.

"Get ready. I will plant the fire for you in three days."

As expected, as Li Yang expected, the Long Live Fox King left again after saying a few words.

During the ten years he has been away from home, there have been many things accumulated in "Jile Mountain" that need to be solved by him.

Moreover, this trip to the Netherworld Blood Sea was not all smooth sailing.

If it weren't for Li Yang's excellent qualifications, the Wansui Fox King would really want to give up on him.

But even so, the Wansui Fox King paid a huge price and finally obtained a fire seed from a great Asura.

On the opposite side, looking at the departing back of the Long Live Fox King, Li Yang closed his eyes and began to adjust his own state.

It is a matter of life and death. The better your condition is, the more chances you have of survival.

Time flies, and three days pass in a flash.

Early that morning, after Li Yang finished his final training, he saw the Wansui Fox King standing in front of him.

"Let's go!!!"

Seeing Li Yang wake up, the Wansui Fox King took him directly to the outside of "Jilei Mountain".

Although "karma fire" uses karma as fuel, it is after all a top-level innate true fire. The Wansui Fox King certainly does not dare to experiment in his own home.

Therefore, Li Yang's retreat place was set on an unnamed barren mountain thousands of miles away.

"Uh-huh!!!"

The Long Live Fox King rode a cloud and brought Li Yang to the retreat place specially prepared by him.

It was a specially opened cave, and there were complicated patterns on the walls of the cave.

This was the "fire-avoiding formation" that was specially set up by a formation master invited by the Wansui Fox King before he left.

Although it may not be of much use, it can still be a consolation.

After entering the cave, the Wansui Fox King motioned Li Yang to sit in the center of the formation, and then took out a gorgeous red lotus and handed it to him.

The red lotus was translucent, and above the lotus pedestal, there was a red bead that was also translucent.

Inside the bead, there seemed to be a cluster of blood-red flames swaying constantly.

"This red lotus is a carrier that the Shura Clan uses to store the red lotus karmic fire. As long as you use your spirit to guide it, you can easily take out the bead that stores the karmic fire."

Having said that, the Fox King patted Li Yang's shoulder gently, then turned around and left.

As the Long Live Fox King emitted a ray of light, the "Fire Avoidance Array" immediately began to run at full speed.

Li Yang looked at the cave shrouded in spiritual light, took a deep breath, and then began to use his spiritual power to explore the red lotus in his hand.

"Boom!!!"

As Li Yang's spiritual thoughts penetrated, the "Karma Fire Bead" suspended above the lotus platform began to rise slowly.

"Kakaka..."

As the "Karma Fire Bead" left the carrier, cracks began to appear and spread on the bead.

"Bang!!!"

With a slight sound, the shell of the "Karma Fire Pearl" shattered directly, revealing the "Red Lotus Karma Fire" inside.

"Uh-huh!!!"

The moment the "Red Lotus Karma Fire" broke free from the constraints of the pearl, it seemed to sense some delicious food and plunged into Li Yang's body.

"boom!!!"

As the karmic fire entered his body, wisps of black gas immediately emerged from all parts of Li Yang's body and penetrated into the karmic fire.

As the black gas was added, the volume of the "Red Lotus Karma Fire" began to expand rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it had spread to every corner of Li Yang's body.

"Roar!!!"

In an instant, a burning sensation that penetrated deep into his soul swept through Li Yang's mind, causing him to subconsciously roar in pain.

At this moment, the Wansui Fox King, who was guarding outside the cave, listened to the roar coming from the cave without changing his expression.

After all, all this is just the beginning.

The fact that Li Yang could still make sounds meant that he was still alive, which was a blessing.

On the other side, Li Yang in the cave began to change again as his body was filled with karma fire.

As the karmic fire rose, the flesh and blood on his body began to slowly melt away.

The whole process was like being eaten by thousands of insects, and the pain was so severe that Li Yang felt as if his soul had gone numb.

In just a few breaths, the only thing left in the cave was a skeleton surrounded by countless blood-red flames.

"boom!!!"

Suddenly, with a loud bang, the blood-red flame that was constantly burning the skeleton suddenly grew stronger and completely enveloped the skeleton.

The reason for this is that as time goes by, the karma fire has begun to spread towards the two "demon palaces" in Li Yang's body.

The two "demon palaces" in Liyang were both opened up by refining "Golden Crow Blood" as energy, and of course there are more karma hidden within them.

At this moment, Li Yang's demon soul hiding in the "Upper Demon Palace" looked at the "Demon Palace" which was originally shining with golden light, and suddenly wisps of black air began to emerge. He was speechless.

In order to deal with the karmic fire, Li Yang also specially learned the minor magical power of "sitting on fire".

Unfortunately, the main function of this magical power is to keep fire out, but the karma fire exploded directly inside Li Yang's body and had no effect at all.

"boom!!!"

With the guidance of karma, the "Red Lotus Karma Fire" easily attacked the two "demon palaces" in Liyang.

As the blood-red "Red Lotus Karma Fire" began to occupy most of the space in the two "Demon Palaces", Li Yang's two heavenly-level "Demon Palaces" immediately began to tremble continuously, and were about to collapse.

"Buzz buzz......"

Sensing that their territory was being invaded by another force, the natal demon cauldron and three white jade slabs that guarded the two "demon palaces" were certainly unwilling.

I saw that my natal demon cauldron suddenly began to spin rapidly, continuously sucking the invading "Red Lotus Karma Fire" into the cauldron.

As the natal demon cauldron began to exert its power, the riot in the "Lower Demon Palace" immediately began to slowly subside.

However, the situation in Liyang's "Shang Yao Mansion" was not so good.

Although the three white jade slabs are magical, they only have the function of assisting enlightenment and are incapable of suppressing the "Red Lotus Karma Fire".

Therefore, the situation in Liyang's "Shangyao Mansion" continues to deteriorate.

Now, Li Yang can only hope that his natal demon cauldron can take down all the “Red Lotus Karma Fire” in the “Lower Demon Palace” as soon as possible, and then he can lend a helping hand to the “Upper Demon Palace”.

However, although the situation was critical, it at least gave Li Yang a glimmer of hope for survival.

As long as Li Yang can hold on until all the karma in his body is consumed, he will be able to survive this disaster safely.

"boom!!!"

Just when Li Yang was full of hope, something unexpected happened again.

The terrifying "Red Lotus Karma Fire" gushed out directly from Li Yang's natal demon cauldron.

This flame is even more vigorous than the "Red Lotus Karma Fire" burning in Li Yang's body.

Even Li Yang's natal demon cauldron was slowly turning red and the temperature was rising sharply.
