Chapter 3633

The morning sun rose on the horizon, and the invisible flames surged from the depths of the Meteor Fire Land. Even from a long distance, Su Xiao felt the heat wave rushing towards him.

Hiss hiss~

The bandages wrapped around Su Xiao burned into ashes and scattered. Seeing this, he bent down and got into the small tent-like shelter, pulled down the gate inside, and with a click, the door of the small shelter closed.

This shelter is very small, only 5 square meters in size, with a height of about 1.4 meters. Sitting inside or lying down will not feel crowded or stuffy, but standing up is unlikely.

Because the shelter is made of hundreds of composite materials layered on top of each other, it is opaque, completely sealed, and various auxiliary systems have been activated. Pale blue lights lit up inside the shelter, and strands of cool mist drifted from around the circular cold light lamp above, which made Su Xiao feel the dry heat accumulated in his body fade away rapidly.

"So there is this shelter. It seems you were prepared for the "Real Flame" long ago."

Saint Poetry, who was holding a cup of iced lemonade and a straw in her mouth, spoke.

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak, raised his hand and pressed it on the inner wall of the shelter, feeling the temperature change.

"Don't be silent, at least give me some confidence..."

Before Saint Poetry finished speaking, the invisible flames outside had surged over. The impact caused the shelter to vibrate slightly. The alarm device inside screamed, the cooling system was turned to the maximum, and it barely kept the inside of the shelter at about 26 degrees. All warning indicator lights lit up, and various values were off the charts.

Even so, this shelter was still strong. After all, it was a black technology bought at a high price from the Goblin Chamber of Commerce. Although the Goblin Chamber of Commerce was dark, the quality of the items sold was absolutely guaranteed. This is the style of the Goblin Chamber of Commerce. Those goblins are cunning, greedy, and ask for sky-high prices. In contrast, they have extremely strict requirements for the quality of goods. Precisely because of this, the Goblin Chamber of Commerce has such a scale.

A few minutes later, the shelter gradually adapted to the impact of the invisible flames outside and stabilized. Outside was the terrifying high temperature that could evaporate steel, and inside the shelter was a cool 23 degrees. Being in this place, it was exceptionally safe.

"It actually blocked it."

Su Xiao opened the energy hub of the shelter and pressed four soul crystals (complete) into it to ensure that the shelter could operate stably.

"What do you mean? You mean, you weren't sure just now that this shelter could block the "Real Flame"? If it couldn't block it, my body would be burned to ashes. If my reaction wasn't fast enough, this kind of flame would even burn my soul body to ashes."

"No, I was very sure it could block it."

"You just said the words 'it actually blocked it' yourself."

"Your illusion."

"I..."

Saint Poetry still wanted to speak, but suddenly thought that there were only 5 square meters here, and sitting opposite was a melee grandmaster, while she was a healing system. Even if both sides were in cooperation, at this distance, if the other party suddenly caught her and then hit her, she basically had no room to fight back.

"Perhaps I heard it wrong, and I'm still a bit dizzy, I'll sleep first."

Saint Poetry lay comfortably on the velvet blanket, feeling strands of coolness nourishing her arms and neck, and her expression gradually relaxed.

"Shall I help you recover your state?"

Golden energy appeared in Saint Poetry's hands. This gold was both sacred and full of vitality.

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak, and shared the content of the "Sun Trial", which made Saint Poetry, who was sleepy from the coolness, not sleepy at all. She sat up halfway and said:

"What kind of ghost trial is this? Is this prepared for people? Uh~, okay, with more than 600,000 life value, you are indeed qualified to challenge this trial."

Saint Poetry lay flat again. In the top echelon of the eighth order, she once thought that she belonged to a small part of the top echelon of the eighth order, until she met Su Xiao, Caesar, Solomon, Zui Yasi, Wood, Priest, Undead Sister, Kain, Water Brother, and others later, she suddenly felt that this world was still very dangerous.

Su Xiao sat cross-legged and meditated. He checked his own life value, and 60.2% was left. Being in this place, the recovery of his own life value was severely suppressed. He estimated that resting for 14 hours, that is, passing the day, his life value would recover to at most 65%~68%, and self-healing was suppressed too severely.

As for other means, obviously they cannot be used. This "Sun Trial" is to let the trial-taker face the scorching sun directly. Any cheating will lead to the failure of the trial. This is the style of the Sun Faction.

Just as Su Xiao was meditating and Saint Poetry was about to enter a dream, the shelter shook with a bang. The amplitude was not large, but the momentum was exceptionally heavy.

Boom, boom, boom~

The vibration approached again and again. When it reached the side of the shelter, it stopped. Obviously, there was something huge walking in the shroud of invisible flames.

Saint Poetry pointed to the top, meaning whether to put a buff on Su Xiao and prepare to meet the enemy.

Su Xiao's index finger was placed in front of his mouth, making a silent gesture. He didn't know what illusion Saint Poetry had that he could defeat the behemoth outside in the invisible flames, even with a lot of buff states, this was impossible.

Creak~

The whole shelter made an unbearable sound. Obviously, the huge existence outside was studying this thing that had never been seen before.

After a while.

Boom, boom, boom~

The heavy footsteps gradually went away, and everything returned to calm. Only the invisible flames rubbed against the outside of the shelter, making a slight hiss.

Three hours later, a rustling sound came.

Dong dong~

It was like some sharp hard object knocking on the door of the shelter. A few seconds later, a voice came from outside the door:

"Are you... travelers? I am... a Sun... believer. Do you... need help..."

After saying this, there were two more slight knocking sounds.

At this moment, outside the shelter, a giant scorpion made of semi-molten metal was observing the shelter with a single eye on its scorpion tail. The knocking sound it made was using the poison needle at the tip of its tail to knock on the metal outer layer of the small door of the shelter. As for the speaking voice, it was issued by a human head on its back. On this strange scorpion's back, it was densely packed with human heads, at least hundreds of them squeezed together. Some heads' eyes occasionally blinked strangely, looking creepy.

Dong dong~

Dong dong~

The strange scorpion knocked a few more times with its tail needle, and then lost interest in the shelter, disappearing behind the sand slope in the distance after a while.

Ten-plus minutes later, a burly figure nearly four meters tall, wearing full heavy armor and holding a scepter, walked by nearby. After seeing the shelter, he changed direction, somewhat stiffly, and used the metal scepter more than three meters long in his hand to smash all the eggs the strange scorpion had laid on the outer wall of the shelter. After that, the scepter in his hand was inserted into the sand, facing the sun, and his arms made a posture of wanting to embrace the sky. After a while, he pulled the scepter out of the ground and continued to wander in the Meteor Fire Land like a ghost.

Inside the shelter, Saint Poetry was no longer sleepy. She originally thought that this desert had not encountered enemies during the night, and the day when the "Real Flame" spread would inevitably be dead silent, but who would have thought that the day here was much livelier than the night.

Saint Poetry didn't hold on for long before falling asleep again. Anyway, she could wake up immediately after the shelter was destroyed, so it was better to rest well.

Time passed quickly. When the timing device of the shelter made a beeping sound, Su Xiao opened his eyes and ended his meditation. He raised his hand to touch the inner wall of the shelter, and there was no heat, representing that the temperature outside had dropped sharply.

Opening the small door, sure enough, the outside had entered the night. The whole desert, because of the orange-yellow micro-light revealed by the sand on the ground, did not appear dark.

After putting away the shelter and putting it into the team storage space, Su Xiao continued to move towards the depths of the Meteor Fire Land. For some reason, every few steps he took, he faintly felt that continuing to move forward became slightly difficult. He looked at Saint Poetry on the side. Apart from being more vigilant than yesterday, she was still looking around every time she didn't walk a distance. It seemed that she was addicted to finding Fire Gold.

Because perception could not be released, Su Xiao could only rely on faint feelings. He looked at the Sun Ring Imprint in the center of his chest, which appeared after accepting the Sun Trial.

Su Xiao seemed to feel that this Sun Ring Imprint spread out many silk threads, and the other end of the silk threads sank into the surrounding space. Every step he took, he would break a few such invisible silk threads, but at the same time, more silk threads would spread out from this Sun Ring Imprint. It seems that the Sun Trial is not something that can be completed just by having a high enough life value.

Su Xiao moved forward steadily step by step. The footprints he stepped on became deeper and deeper. Sweat beads seeped out of his body, and they evaporated in a while, looking as if faint white gas was drifting from his body.

Every step became more and more difficult, and even, when he continued to move forward for more than 9 hours, Su Xiao's eyes appeared somewhat double images.

【Prompt: You are suffering from the willpower test of the "Scorching Sun", willpower judgment in progress...】

【You have passed this judgment.】

【Your real willpower +1 point.】

【Your real physical attribute +1 point.】

【The warm sun is shining on you, your life value recovers 10%.】

"Hoo~"

Su Xiao exhaled white hot air from his mouth. He glanced at the morning sun rising in the distance, knowing it was time to rest. He took out the shelter again, and after activation, the shelter expanded.

Inside the shelter where cool air drifted, Su Xiao still sat cross-legged and meditated. This time, it was not only the problem that only 42.5% of his life value was left, but his physical strength was also severely consumed.

The shelter was obviously not as stable as yesterday when resisting the second day, but it still lasted for 14 hours. Su Xiao estimated that this shelter would last at most another 20 hours or so.

Putting away the shelter, Su Xiao continued to move forward. Saint Poetry, who was walking with him, still wanted to find the third piece of Fire Gold, but Fire Gold was not found, and she found a wooden treasure chest. She opened it with full expectation, and then was cursed. However, the curse had existed for too many years, and the effect lasted only ten-plus minutes.

The sand under his feet was stepped on to make a creaking sound. This was Su Xiao's third night in the Meteor Fire Land. If he couldn't reach the central crater before the morning of today, he would face the result of trial failure. If more than 600,000 life value couldn't pass this trial, then Su Xiao wouldn't feel regret for this failure.

After continuing to move forward for four hours with difficulty, the temperature in front soared suddenly, causing all the sweat on Su Xiao's body to evaporate instantly, and the scorching feeling almost made him fall to the ground.

Looking forward, a huge fire pit with a diameter of at least tens of kilometers appeared. This is the central crater of the Meteor Fire Land.

The inside of this crater has become uneven due to being scorched by high temperature for many years, and it is a bit dazzling scarlet inside, while the bottom of the pit presents a golden red, looking like an irregular sun, a scene of the sun falling in this place.

Su Xiao looked at Saint Poetry, who was hundreds of meters behind, and wondered why she stopped there. In fact, Saint Poetry was already confused at this moment. She didn't understand why Su Xiao could approach the crater so calmly. How did he resist the real Sun Flame damage of 15% of maximum health per second in that area?

In fact, Su Xiao didn't suffer this damage at all. The Sun Ring Imprint that appeared on his chest, although it would bring him difficulties along the way, had other functions.

Stopping in front of the crater, Su Xiao looked at this magnificent view. Besides shock, this scene also had an indescribable feeling. The sun fell here, and the Sun God Sect of this world seemed to have perished here. After arriving at this place, this feeling was exceptionally strong.

Su Xiao carefully recalled the situation of the Sun God Sect in this world. It seemed that after the thousand-year battle between the Alliance and the North Empire, the impression of the Sun God Sect became that this sect went to the Desert Kingdom. Because of the backwardness of the Desert Kingdom, the Sun God Sect was more low-key, low-key to the point of no longer recruiting members and no longer interfering in the game between major forces.

Looking back at the contact with the Sun God Sect, except for the Platinum Bishop, Red Pupil Girl, and Beast Knight, Su Xiao didn't seem to have seen other members of the Sun God Sect in this world. They all said that other members of the Sun God Sect were in the Desert Kingdom, but after arriving at the Desert Kingdom, he didn't see much trace of the Sun God Sect.

That feeling was like the Sun God Sect's sense of existence in the last few hundred years was supported by the Platinum Bishop, making people feel that the Sun God Sect was still there, but where did the members go? No one knew.

There is another point. Before, Su Xiao played against Vice Dean Yesinger. He united with the Platinum Bishop, that is, united with the Sun God Sect. The four great councilors of the Alliance didn't even have a warning attitude. In contrast, Vice Dean Yesinger, who united with the Dawn God Sect, died in the Council Hall. The four great councilors didn't even mention accountability, and the matter was turned over directly.

Su Xiao united with the Sun God Sect and nothing happened. Vice Dean Yesinger united with the Dawn God Sect and was abandoned by the Alliance directly. Did the four great councilors take special care of Su Xiao? No, there is another possibility, that is, uniting with the Sun God Sect actually doesn't matter, and it will not pose any threat to the Alliance, because this sect has already existed in name only.

With a bang, Su Xiao felt that the pressure from the surroundings dissipated instantly. The Sun Ring Imprint in the center of his chest disappeared, and a prompt appeared.

【You have passed the Sun Trial.】

【You obtain the Sun Protection effect (lasts 24 hours).】

【You have obtained the qualification to enter the Sun Temple. With Sun Protection, if you jump into the crater, you will not be burned by the Sun Flame.】

【You can obtain "Supreme Sun (Origin-level Inscription)" on the stele of the Sun Temple.】

A warm energy clung to Su Xiao's body surface. This time, even the scorching feeling spreading from the crater disappeared. He didn't jump into it directly, but took out the 【Sun Disk】 and threw it into the crater.

The 【Sun Disk】 flew and fell into the crater. Suddenly, the disk stopped, and a powerful adsorption force erupted from inside.

Like a long whale sucking water, the high-concentration Sun Flame in the crater was sucked into the 【Sun Disk】. Even the big fireball like the sun at the bottom of the pit began to dim.

The 【Sun Disk】 absorbs the Sun Flame produced after the explosion of "Sun's Wrath · Apollo", which only takes a blink of an eye, maybe less than 0.5 seconds. But at this moment, the 【Sun Disk】 absorbed it for a full three hours, and the Sun Flame in the crater had not been absorbed yet.

After absorbing for more than four hours, the crater that was originally scarlet turned into a translucent black glaze color, and there was not even half a Sun Flame left inside, which caused the temperature around to gradually return to normal.

Su Xiao tried to pick up the 【Sun Disk】 floating in front. Hiss, the scorching feeling was transmitted to his hand. At this time, the 【Sun Disk】 had changed from the original rock texture to a somewhat transparent scarlet color, with dense patterns in the center.

【Sun Disk】

Taking out a charcoal box, Su Xiao put away the 【Sun Disk】 and stored it in the team storage space. It doesn't matter if this thing releases high temperature in the storage space. With notarization permission, it is impossible to burn other items.

Su Xiao looked at the bottom of the crater, where there was a tunnel slanting downwards, and he could still see the steps. This should be the Sun Temple.

Jumping to the bottom of the crater, Su Xiao explored this underground building along the downward steps. The passage he was in had traces of being scorched by high temperature, and there were multiple door leaves here, but they were all burned.

When Su Xiao walked to the end of the downward steps, he was blocked by a silver-gray metal door. He tried to raise his hand to push, but it didn't move. Seeing this, he stepped back a few steps and kicked straight.

Boom!!!

An air explosion spread. Su Xiao maintained the posture of kicking straight. After a few seconds, he retracted his numb leg and stood in place to recover. His right leg regained sensation.

It couldn't be pushed open, and the master key couldn't break it either. Su Xiao began to observe this door. Undoubtedly, the opening method of this door should be the final link of the mission content after completing the ticket mission for this dangerous area. The problem is, he didn't know what the mission was at all.

To be precise, the normal process to come here is:

Negotiate with the Platinum God Sect → Join the Sun God Sect → Gradually discover the secrets of the Sun God Sect → Ask the Platinum Bishop → Show sincerity → The Platinum Bishop lets Red Pupil Girl and Beast cooperate to assist the mission activator to go to Ghost City → Finally, steal the key to the Sun Temple and the "Sun Amulet" from the Abyss leader, and use this amulet to resist the environmental damage of the Meteor Fire Land.

In this very long process, Su Xiao skipped some. For example, after he learned about the existence of the Meteor Fire Land from the Platinum God Sect, he came. As for going to Ghost City to get the key and amulet, this is not the point.

After Su Xiao recovered for a while, he wrapped crystal layers on his right lower leg and foot, and kicked straight again.

Boom!!!

The silver-gray metal door dented inward. Seeing this, Su Xiao knew that the master key was still feasible. He took out a few bottles of potions, drank one, poured one on his right lower leg, and after a few minutes.

Boom!!!

Boom!!!

Above the crater, Saint Poetry, who was waiting here, suddenly felt the ground under her feet tremble. She subconsciously looked at the source of the sound, that is, the tunnel at the bottom of the crater. She hesitated for a while, and finally chose to jump into the crater. After all, it was a promised cooperation, and now that she had fought with the enemy, she naturally wouldn't watch the show.

Arriving at the bottom of the crater, Saint Poetry found that the high temperature she imagined didn't strike. It should be that the disk absorbed all the flames, making this place no longer dangerous.

When Saint Poetry came to the long corridor at the deepest part of the passage, she saw Su Xiao kicking the metal door one by one. The silver-gray metal door looked like an extraordinary object that had existed for many years, but at this moment, it had been severely dented by kicking.

With a clatter, the metal door could no longer hold on and was kicked flying inward by Su Xiao. In turn, Saint Poetry, who was in a team state with Su Xiao, received a prompt.

【Prompt: Your teammate Hunter · Bai Ye has opened the door of the Sun Temple.】

【Your team has opened the door of the Sun Temple by ignoring the 2 side missions and 3 faction missions related to this event. This behavior will not obtain the corresponding event rewards, but can obtain the following rewards.】

【Team leader Hunter · Bai Ye has obtained the Miracle Soul Treasure Chest (after opening, can obtain 1~100 soul crystals).】

【You obtain the Soul Treasure Chest (after opening, can obtain 1~10 soul crystals).】

【Because you are in a combat assistance state, due to this event, you unlock the following achievement title.】

【Achievement Title · Fearless Explorer (★★★★★★★).】

"This~"

Saint Poetry was confused. She looked at the soul treasure chest in her hand and the seven-star title newly added to the title list. She subconsciously asked:

"Bai Ye, what title did you obtain?"

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak, and the crystal layer on his leg was released.

"I like collecting titles very much, and I have even compiled them into an illustrated book. As long as you are willing to let me record this title you obtained, I will give you a copy of this illustrated book that has recorded more than 1,900 titles. Inside, there are many nine-star title illustrations."

"..."

Su Xiao still didn't speak. At this moment, Saint Poetry, who had a collection addiction to title styles, hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter.

After a while, Su Xiao already had a title illustrated book in his hand, which was Saint Poetry's collection edition. Inside, there were acquisition methods for several eight-star titles and nine-star titles, while Saint Poetry behind had a "gentle" smile, and her eyes seemed to be saying: "You wait for me."

Su Xiao walked into the Sun Temple. After entering this place, he found that this should be the bottom layer of the Sun Temple. As for where the layers above went, nine out of ten were blown away.

On the ground in the center of the Sun Temple, there was a black ring that was circular overall with irregular edges. Su Xiao squatted on the ground and pressed one hand into the ring. The moment he touched it, he judged that this was a remnant of an Abyss channel that had been forcibly closed. The original position of this Abyss channel was higher up, but it was forcibly closed. At the moment before it disappeared, it reflected this remnant below.

Judging from the ground height and the height of this layer of the temple, this should be the sixth underground layer of the Sun Temple, and the original height of the Abyss channel was about the fifth underground layer of the original Sun Temple.

There is a sect like the Dark God Sect that believes in the Abyss in this world. It is not surprising that an Abyss channel appears. What is really surprising is how the original inhabitants of this world solved this Abyss channel.

Even if this is a ninth-order world, once an Abyss channel appears, it is very difficult to survive. The transcendent native world like the Dark Continent eventually declined because of the appearance of multiple Abyss channels. At this moment, this Shadow World, one Abyss channel, is enough to make this place invaded by the Abyss.

If he guessed correctly, this Sun Temple is actually the headquarters of the Sun God Sect in this world. After the Abyss channel appeared, the members of the Sun God Sect rushed to this place. After discussion, they decided to move the headquarters, build the Sun Temple here, and suppress the gradually opening Abyss channel.

The result was that the Sun God Sect became more and more low-key. After the Abyss channel reached an irreversible degree, the Sun God Sect made a decision to gather all their strength to disperse this Abyss channel that had not been fully opened. The result was obvious. The Sun God Sect succeeded. Because of the violent Sun Flame explosion, this Meteor Fire Land appeared, as well as this crater full of Sun Flame. Only the Sun Temple · Sixth Layer located directly below the Abyss channel was preserved.

Su Xiao looked at the stele a few meters away. Many names were engraved on this stele, all of which were former members of the Sun God Sect. The first three names attracted Su Xiao's attention, especially after the first name, a platinum mask was inlaid. These three names were:

"Sun Archbishop · Silvis."

"Red Pupil Girl · Silide."

"Beast Knight · Jiaer."

Located below this stele, about one meter from the ground, an inscription revealing a scarlet micro-light was inlaid. This was the first Origin-level inscription Su Xiao had ever seen. Beside this inscription, a line of words was also engraved: "Gifted to those who dare to face the Sun Trial."

【You obtain Supreme Sun (Origin-level Inscription).】
