Chapter 134: Chaos Fire

Trapped in this ghost place, are we really just waiting to die?

"Kid, don't be discouraged," the old man seemed to see through his thoughts and said in a deep voice.

"Swallowing Heaven is powerful, but not invincible. It also has weaknesses; as long as you find its weakness, you can destroy it."

"Weakness?" A hint of hope flashed in Tang Yun's eyes, "What is its weakness?"

The old man shook his head: "I don't know. The weakness of Swallowing Heaven has always been a mystery, even I cannot fathom it."

Tang Yun was like being splashed with a basin of cold water, the hope that had just ignited in his heart instantly extinguished.

"However..." the old man changed the subject, "I once heard that there is a power named 'Chaos Fire' that can restrain Swallowing Heaven."

"Chaos Fire?" Tang Yun's heart moved; wasn't the Chaos Medical Qi in his body a type of Chaos power?

"That's right," the old man nodded.

"Chaos Fire is the purest power between heaven and earth, it can burn all evil. If you can control Chaos Fire, perhaps you can destroy Swallowing Heaven and escape."

"How to control Chaos Fire?" Tang Yun asked eagerly.

The old man looked at him deeply and said slowly: "If you want to control Chaos Fire, you must enter the core of Swallowing Heaven; there, you will face unprecedented tests..."

"Tests?" Tang Yun repeated the old man's words, his heart filled with doubt and unease.

He didn't know what this so-called test was, nor did he know if he had the ability to pass it.

But right now, he had no other choice.

Rather than sit and wait for death, it was better to give it a try.

"Senior, please guide me to enter the core of Swallowing Heaven," Tang Yun took a deep breath and said with a firm gaze.

The old man nodded, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes: "Good kid, have courage. Follow me."

After the old man finished speaking, he turned and walked toward Swallowing Heaven.

Tang Yun followed closely, his heart both nervous and expectant.

As they got closer and closer to Swallowing Heaven, the temperature around them got higher and higher.

Tang Yun felt as if he were in a furnace, his whole body hot and unbearable.

"Hold your breath, circulate your cultivation method, and protect your heart pulse," the old man reminded.

Tang Yun followed suit, circulating the Chaos Medical Qi to form a protective film on his body surface.

Although this protective film was weak, it barely resisted the invasion of high temperature.

Finally, they arrived at the surface of Swallowing Heaven.

Observing at close range, Tang Yun discovered that this sphere was even more huge than he had imagined.

The surface of the sphere was covered with dense runes, emitting an eerie light.

"Hold your breath, follow me closely," the old man reminded again.

After speaking, he jumped into Swallowing Heaven.

Seeing this, Tang Yun also jumped in without hesitation.

As soon as he entered Swallowing Heaven, Tang Yun felt as if he had entered a brand new world.

There was no day or night here, no passage of time, only boundless darkness.

"This is the interior of Swallowing Heaven?" Tang Yun thought to himself.

He looked around, but couldn't see anything.

"Senior, where are you?" Tang Yun asked tentatively.

"I am in front of you," the old man's voice came from the front.

Tang Yun looked in the direction of the sound and saw a blurred figure appearing in front.

He hurriedly walked toward that figure.

As he continued to move forward, the darkness around him gradually dissipated, replaced by a blood-red light.

"What is this?" Tang Yun was puzzled.

He continued to walk forward, and the scene before his eyes became clearer and clearer.

He saw a huge sea of blood appearing in front, with countless wronged souls rolling in the sea of blood, emitting miserable screams.

"This is... the living beings swallowed by Swallowing Heaven?" Tang Yun was startled.

He finally understood that Swallowing Heaven didn't just swallow matter, it also swallowed the souls of living beings.

"Kid, be careful," the old man's voice sounded again, "These wronged souls are filled with resentment and will attack any living being that approaches them."

Hearing this, Tang Yun hurriedly circulated the Chaos Medical Qi to form a thicker protective film on his body surface.

Just then, several wronged souls pounced toward him.

These wronged souls were ferocious, baring fangs and brandishing claws, emitting a nauseating stench of rot.

Tang Yun didn't dare to be careless, brandished the golden long sword, and killed these wronged souls one by one.

However, these wronged souls seemed endless; kill one and another came.

Tang Yun gradually felt physically exhausted, and the protective film on his body began to show cracks.

"This can't go on," Tang Yun thought to himself.

He had to find a way to get rid of the entanglement of these wronged souls.

Just then, he suddenly thought of another function of Chaos Medical Qi—purification.

He took a deep breath, circulated the Chaos Medical Qi to the extreme, and then released it fiercely.

A powerful purification force instantly swept out, purifying all the surrounding wronged souls into nothingness.

The sea of blood also disappeared, revealing a huge black vortex.

"This is the core of Swallowing Heaven?" Tang Yun thought to himself.

He looked at the black vortex before him, his heart filled with fear and unease.

But he knew that he had no way back.

He took a deep breath, jumped, and jumped into the black vortex...

Tang Yun only felt the world spinning, as if falling into a bottomless abyss.

He didn't know how long he fell, nor did he know where he was.

Everything around was pitch black, one couldn't see their fingers, only the whistling wind echoed in his ears.

Suddenly, he felt his body lighten, as if landing on the ground.

"Cough cough..." Tang Yun coughed a few times and struggled to climb up from the ground.

He looked around and found himself in a huge cave. The walls of the cave were covered with strange runes, emitting a faint light, illuminating the entire cave.

"What is this place?" Tang Yun was puzzled.

Just then, a cold voice came from the depths of the cave: "Welcome to my world, Tang Yun."

Tang Yun was startled and hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound.

He saw a figure in a black robe, with his face hidden under the hood, slowly walking out from the darkness.

"Who are you?" Tang Yun asked vigilantly.

The black-robed man laughed coldly: "Who am I? You don't need to know. You only need to know that you have fallen into my trap."

Tang Yun frowned: "What on earth do you want to do?"

The black-robed man didn't answer, but slowly raised his hands, chanting words in his mouth.

Following his incantation, the runes in the cave began to flicker, emitting an even more dazzling light.

Tang Yun felt a powerful force surging toward him, pressing him so hard he couldn't breathe.

"What do you want to do?" Tang Yun roared.

The black-robed man still didn't answer, but continued to chant the incantation.

Suddenly, the top of the cave cracked open, and a beam of dazzling light shone down, enveloping the black-robed man.

The light dissipated, and the black-robed man's figure also disappeared. ===== CHAPTER 135 =====
