9 star Divine Talisman Master was the pinnacle of Divine Talisman Masters in the Mortal Universe.
Although 8 star was only a step away from 9 star, it was like the distance between heaven and earth.
Fang Chen had a deeper understanding of this.
He had displayed heaven-defying potential in the Array Dao.
In less than fifty years, he had reached 8 star Divine Talisman Master.
However, he had only caused a small commotion, which wasn't enough to enter the eyes of the five giants.
Even if Fang Chen had great potential, the five giants didn't think he could reach 9 star Divine Talisman Master in a short time.
In fact, it was impossible for him to do so in this lifetime.
"Sanguinati, you should be proud to die under my grade 9 talisman."
Originally, he had prepared the grade 9 talisman for the final battle.
However, Sanguinati's strength had exceeded his expectations. Thus, he had used it in advance.
The sea of fire that filled the sky gave people a very shocking feeling.
Purple Blade's figure flickered as he left the Welcoming Hall.
The power of the grade 9 talisman was too strong. It was comparable to the all-out attack of a high-level Life and Death Emperor.
However, because it was activated by Yuan Ming, its power couldn't reach its peak.
Even so, it was enough to make Fang Chen feel his life was in danger.
"Even the perfect sword body can't block it."
Fang Chen could feel the sword-shaped runes on his skin being rapidly devoured by the sea of flames.
Once the sword-shaped runes were completely devoured, he would die.
The clone at the side was also doing his best to fight.
"True Intent of Spacetime."
Fang Chen pushed the True Intent of Spacetime to the limit, wanting to travel through the void.
However, he was disappointed.
The sea of flames sealed the void. Although the True Intent of Spacetime was heaven-defying, it was useless.
"Damn it!"
Fang Chen glanced at the spreading flames and recalled his clone into the Coiling Moon Immortal Cave.
Then, he also entered the Coiling Moon Immortal Cave.
Dong!
Above the Welcoming Hall, a Divine Cave of similar size appeared.
"What is this?"
The moment the Coiling Moon Immortal Cave appeared, it isolated the sea of flames. Fang Chen's crisis was resolved.
"As expected of the Coiling Moon War Immortal."
Fang Chen sighed to himself.
He carefully sensed the sea of fire outside the Coiling Moon Immortal Cave.
The sea of fire enveloped the Coiling Moon Celestial Cave, locking down the void. There was no way to leave.
"I wonder if the Coiling Moon Immortal Cave can hold on." Fang Chen was somewhat worried.
In the outside world, when Yuan Ming saw this scene, his face was incomparably gloomy.
"Sanguinati, do you really think that a spatial treasure can withstand the attack of a ninth rank talisman?" Yuan Ming said coldly. "Today, you will die."
With that, Yuan Ming waved his hand.
Terrifying flames continued to erupt from the talisman, drilling into the sea of fire.
The Coiling Moon Immortal Cave was enveloped in a sea of fire above the Reception Hall.
"Master, do you plan on being trapped here forever?"
Suddenly, the dark demonic wheel artifact spirit spoke.
"Yeah, what do you have in mind?" Fang Chen hurriedly asked.
"Master, why are you so muddle-headed? Don't you have the blood essence of the Undying Bird? If you use your black flame to absorb the sea of fire outside, you might be able to completely transform it into the Undying Flame," the Artifact Spirit said slowly.
Hearing this, Fang Chen was startled.
Why didn't he think of that? When faced with danger, he was still somewhat impatient.
The Coiling Moon Immortal Cave's defenses were extremely strong, able to withstand the sea of fire.
Just as the Artifact Spirit said, he could take advantage of this opportunity to completely fuse the blood essence of the Undying Bird into the black flame. If he could truly transform it into the Undying Flame, then it would be extremely powerful.
Thinking of this, Fang Chen began to try.
As the master of the Coiling Moon Immortal Cave, he could control it as he wished.
With a thought, he arrived at a certain edge of the Coiling Moon Immortal Cave.
Here, he could vaguely see the flames outside soaring into the sky.
"Absorb."
Fang Chen controlled the Coiling Moon Immortal Cave and opened a small corner.
Immediately, a wild sea of fire rushed in.
Fang Chen hurriedly controlled the small corner to slow down the speed at which the sea of fire rushed in.
Then, he urged the black flame to drill into the sea of fire.
Hiss!
Although the flames within the sea of fire were powerful, they were unable to contend against the black flame.
The black flame was rapidly absorbing the power within the sea of fire.
At the same time, the blood essence of the Undying Bird appeared and covered its entire body.
Fang Chen closed his eyes and tried to fuse the blood essence of the Undying Bird with the black flame.
Outside, beside the Welcoming Hall:
"Sanguinati, there's no need to struggle in vain. You will definitely die."
Yuan Ming sneered.
As long as Fang Chen was not extinguished, the sea of fire would not be extinguished.
He did not believe that Sanguinati could hide in this cave for the rest of his life.
Seeing this scene, Zi Dao shook his head slightly.
"This Sanguinati is really heaven-defying."
As the disciple of the Black Blade Monarch, Zi Dao's master had given him all the resources to nurture him to this level.
However, this Sanguinati started from scratch. He came from a weak continent and relied on his own efforts to reach this level. It was not easy.
In some aspects, Zi Dao was ashamed of his inferiority.
However, their standpoints were different, so their views were different.
What he wanted was the strongest inheritance. Whoever stopped him would be his enemy.
If Sanguinati was not defeated, he would not be able to fight with Yuan Ming for the last person.
Hence, he could only wait.
"Sanguinati, give up. You have no chance," Zi Dao roared.
He did not want to waste time. However, if Sanguinati continued to hide in the cave, he would not be able to do anything.
There was no movement inside. Zi Dao's expression changed slightly. He sat down cross-legged and said, "The Ancestral Land will be open for three years. I have plenty of time. I'm just afraid that you won't be able to hold on."
After speaking, Zi Dao closed his eyes and cultivated.
Inside the Coiling Moon Divine Cave:
At first, the speed of absorbing the energy in the sea of fire was very slow.
However, as the Undying Bird's blood essence merged, the speed of absorption became faster and faster.
After two hours, more than half of the Undying Bird's blood essence had merged.
"Indeed, using the sea of fire can merge the Undying Bird's blood essence."
Fang Chen was delighted and continued to absorb.
Half a month later:
Yuan Ming felt that the power of the sea of fire had weakened significantly. His expression changed slightly.
"What's going on? Why did the sea of fire weaken?"
Yuan Ming carefully checked the Rank 9 talisman. There was no problem.
However, why did the sea of fire weaken? It was too inconceivable.
"Could it be that Sanguinati was burned to death?"
Thinking of this, Yuan Ming approached the sea of fire, wanting to check the cave's situation.
He spread out his Divine Sense and found that the cave was still floating in the air.
"Mm."
When his Divine Sense swept through a certain part of the cave, he found a small corner.
The flames in the sea of fire were constantly entering the small corner.
"Hahaha, Sanguinati must have been killed."
Yuan Ming was overjoyed and laughed wildly.
However, after a moment, the smile on his face completely froze.
That was because the flames in the sea of fire suddenly became wild, and then all of them rushed into the cave residence.
Crash!
In a moment, the raging fire in the Reception Hall was gone. It was as if it had never happened.
"What's going on? My Rank 9 talisman!"
Yuan Ming turned pale with fright. He checked the Rank 9 talisman.
He was shocked to find that the energy in the Rank 9 talisman had dried up.
This meant that the Rank 9 talisman was completely useless.
"Sanguinati must be dead."
Yuan Ming comforted himself.
If he couldn't kill Sanguinati after wasting a Rank 9 talisman, then it would be a huge loss.
At this time, in the Coiling Moon Immortal Cave.
Fang Chen was surrounded by a sea of fire.
The black flames in his body had completely merged with the Undying Bird's blood essence.
After half a month of transformation, traces of purple flames appeared in the black flames.
Black with purple, this was the characteristic of the Undying Flame.
Buzz!
Fang Chen's mind moved, and the black flames instantly emerged.
The sea of fire surrounding him was instantly devoured.
In the next moment, Fang Chen opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of turbid air.
A bright smile appeared on his face. He was very happy.
"Black flames, no, it should be called the Undying Flame now."
The black flames had completely transformed into the Undying Flame. Although it had just been transformed and its power wasn't too strong, it wouldn't take long for the Undying Flame's power to be completely exposed.
The overlord of flames, the Undying Flame, was not an exaggeration.
"Fortunately, I have the Undying Bird's blood essence. Otherwise, it would be really troublesome."
Fang Chen muttered to himself. With a thought, he put away the Undying Flame.
"It's time to go out."
After being trapped for half a month, not only did Xiao Chen not die, but he also benefited from the disaster.
Xiao Chen wondered what Yuan Ming would think after seeing this.
After putting away the Coiling Moon Celestial Cave, Fang Chen's main body suddenly appeared above the Welcoming Hall.
"How can this be?!"
When Yuan Ming saw Sanguinati, he cried out involuntarily.
Yuan Ming quickly shook his head, not daring to believe everything before his eyes.
The Rank 9 talisman actually did not injure him at all.
"Impossible. This can't be real." Yuan Ming was somewhat dazed.
Purple Dao, who was at the side, immediately stood up.
He narrowed his eyes and stared at Sanguinati.
This person is too terrifying. Even if I can't be his friend, I definitely can't be his enemy, Purple Dao thought to himself.
Purple Dao could feel a scorching flame aura from Fang Chen's body.
That flame aura made his heart palpitate.
"Did I disappoint you?" Fang Chen asked.
"Why? Why?!"
Yuan Ming cried out crazily. He did not understand how Sanguinati could survive the attack of the Rank 9 talisman.
"Yuan Ming, you lost."
Purple Dao reminded him.
If Yuan Ming did not know what was good for him and forcefully attacked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I …"
Hearing Purple Dao's words, Yuan Ming was stunned.
Then, his face filled with a bitter smile.
"I, Yuan Ming, have been known as an outstanding talent of the Yuan Race since I was young. Countless resources have been given to me.
All along, I thought that I was the strongest genius of the Mortal Universe's younger generation, "Yuan Ming said in a deep voice.
Yuan Ming said in a deep voice as he looked at Fang Chen with a burning gaze.
"Sanguinati, I admit that you are very strong, but I will not give up.
But I won't give up. One day, I will surpass you. "
At this point, Yuan Ming had actually already admitted defeat.
Even a trump card like the Rank 9 talisman could not do anything to Xiao Chen. If he continued fighting, he would just be sending himself to death.
"You tried to kill me time and time again. Now that you can't beat me, you admit defeat," Fang Chen sneered.
