Chapter 1724: People of a Feather Flock Together! Flame Alliance!
"Whoosh!"
The red thread contracted, pulling that faint, nearly invisible remnant soul back onto the mirror surface!
"You want to kill Kolt? Impossible!"
Inside the Heaven-Burning Mirror, Royce's resentful and ferocious voice rang out:
"The Heaven-Burning Mirror is a peak heavy treasure custom-made for me by my father!
Not only can it protect my soul from extinction, but it can also contain others' remnant souls!
Su Chen, do you think you can kill us?"
Within the mirror surface, two faint soul flames hovered.
One was Royce's remnant soul.
Though dim, it still exuded an aura of resentment.
The other was Kolt's remnant soul.
Even fainter than Royce's, it seemed as if it would extinguish at any moment.
"I, I'm already dead?!"
Kolt's remnant soul trembled violently, conveying an incredulous thought.
He clearly felt his divine body had completely disintegrated, his consciousness about to fall into eternal darkness.
But now......
"It's fine!
We're now inside the Heaven-Burning Mirror; Su Chen can't do anything to us!"
Royce's remnant soul sneered:
"The Heaven-Burning Mirror is a peak heavy treasure!
Even if he's a seventh-stage Immortal, let alone an ordinary Sovereign coming, he couldn't even dream of breaking it open!
My father is already rushing this way!
When he arrives, I want to personally watch my father crush his bones and scatter his ashes!
Extract his soul and burn it for ten thousand years with the Heaven-Burning Divine Flame!
Make him unable to live, unable to die!"
Royce's voice was filled with resentment:
"And Night Li! That bitch!
Once my father catches her, I'll refine her into a doll! Torment her day and night!"
"Good!"
Kolt's remnant soul was also ignited with raging fury.
His teacher is the Sovereign of Time.
Even if he dies, he can reverse time and space to resurrect.
Now this remnant soul state, though somewhat better than direct death.
But it's only just a little better.
If he wants to recover later, who knows how many resources he'd need to consume to do it!
How could he not hate?
"It can even contain other people's souls."
In the distance, Xu Jingming gazed at the Heaven-Burning Mirror hovering in midair, his brow slightly furrowed:
"This custom-made peak heavy treasure has functions that are too heaven-defying."
He tried to activate the Chaos Pearl, golden light enveloping the Heaven-Burning Mirror, attempting to suppress it.
However, the surface of the Heaven-Burning Mirror flowed with crimson light, actually withstanding the Chaos Pearl's suppression outright.
Xu Jingming raised his hand again and unleashed several bolts of solar divine thunder.
"Boom—boom—boom——!!!"
Golden-green Lei Ting struck the Heaven-Burning Mirror, erupting in a deafening roar.
Yet the Heaven-Burning Mirror didn't even tremble.
The mirror surface remained smooth as before, not leaving even a trace.
"Indeed, it cannot be broken."
Xu Jingming silently shook his head.
Given his current strength.
He couldn't even damage a minor heavy treasure, let alone a peak one.
Royce and Kolt were hiding inside; he truly had no way.
"Too bad, I couldn't kill them directly."
Xu Jingming felt some regret.
But upon second thought.
These two only had a single thread of remnant soul left, weakened to the extreme.
To recover to their original state, who knows how many years and resources it would take.
Their loss has already been severe enough.
"And even if they recover......"
Xu Jingming's eyes flashed with cold light: "At worst, I'll just kill them again."
To him, Royce and Kolt no longer posed a threat.
The real trouble is the Flame Heaven Ruler who's rushing over!
"The Flame Heaven Ruler actually came for real."
Xu Jingming's brows furrowed slightly.
Logically speaking, the Primordial Ancient Battlefield has special rules suppressing it.
Able to restrict a Ruler-level's strength to the Invincible Eternal level.
But the Flame Heaven Ruler is, after all, a Supreme Ruler, an existence standing at the pinnacle of the universe.
Who knows if he has some special means to break through the restriction?
Or rather, does he have some forbidden treasure that could directly kill me?
"To be safe, I should still ask Teacher Frost Crown first.
Junior Sister Yeli's matter also needs her help."
Xu Jingming quickly made a decision.
At this moment, Chu Kuang and Mu Wanqing flew over.
Both their gazes toward Xu Jingming vaguely carried shock.
The strength Xu Jingming displayed in that battle just now completely overturned their understanding.
Eternal Stage Seven, crushing the Invincible Eternal Stage.
Capturing Yan Zhu God alive, blasting Royce to death...
This is simply a mythical battle record!
But it's precisely because of this that the Flame Heaven Ruler was provoked.
What follows will probably be extremely troublesome.
However, before they could speak, Xu Jingming spoke first:
"The Flame Heaven Ruler is coming for me; this matter I alone can bear.
You two leave first, don't get dragged down by me."
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
Chu Kuang's eyes widened at those words, and he said in a coarse voice:
"We're teammates who entered together; Night God is also our friend!
Now that trouble's happened, how could we possibly abandon you and flee alone?"
"Exactly."
Mu Wanqing also nodded firmly, her beautiful face carrying resolution:
"Senior Sister Yeli still hasn't awakened.
If we left at a time like this, would we still be human?"
Xu Jingming looked at the two with some surprise.
He had originally thought Chu Kuang and Mu Wanqing would prioritize self-preservation; after all, they faced a Supreme Ruler's wrath.
But unexpectedly...
"As expected, birds of a feather flock together.
Senior Sister Yeli's own character is excellent, so the friends she makes are all loyal too.
If it were someone like Colt, he'd probably have fled long ago."
Xu Jingming sighed inwardly.
"The Flame Heaven Ruler is too arrogant! He really thinks no one can rein him in?"
Chu Kuang coldly snorted: "I'll report this to the Flame Alliance!
I don't believe the Flame Alliance will just watch and do nothing!"
"Heh heh, the Flame Alliance? The Flame Alliance can't touch you either!"
Inside the Flame Heaven Mirror, Royce's remnant soul let out a disdainful cold laugh:
"My father is the Flame Heaven Ruler! My ancestor is a Realm Lord!
Those guys in the Flame Alliance, who would dare offend our Flame Heaven Clan for a nameless nobody?
Just you wait!
When my father arrives, not a single one of you will escape!"
His voice was filled with resentment and arrogance.
Xu Jingming's brows furrowed, he lifted his foot and kicked out a Lei Guang.
"Scram!"
Boom!
The Flame Heaven Mirror was kicked tens of thousands of meters away.
Heavily smashed into a distant cliff wall, kicking up dust that filled the sky.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Then he looked at Chu Kuang with some puzzlement:
"Flame Alliance? What organization is that?"
He had never heard of this name.
"You don't know?"
Chu Kuang was first stunned, then realized:
"That's right, you've been a Titled Eternal for too short a time; not having received an invitation yet is normal."
He organized his thoughts and explained:
"The Flame Alliance is a high-end combat power alliance personally established by our human race's Origin realm experts.
Only those whose strength reaches the Titled Immortal stage or above are qualified to join.
The Flame Alliance's purpose is to unite all of the human race's high-end combat power to jointly resist alien race invasions and safeguard the peace of human territory.
The alliance internally has a dedicated Tribunal.
It is specifically responsible for handling vicious conflicts, betrayals, indiscriminate killings, and other such acts among human experts.
Like the Burning Heaven Ruler, relying on his own strength and background
to forcibly kill other Immortals — such behavior has already seriously violated the Flame Alliance's rules.
The Tribunal absolutely will not stand by and do nothing!"
