Chapter 201: Fire Emperor Sacrifices to Heaven

Boom!

A burst of flames instantly erupted in the magma pool, swallowing Xu Que's figure!

Drops of magma splashed onto the shore, directly eroding and melting the stone walls. This was magma fused with the Fire Yuan dragon vein, which was very extraordinary, and the temperature was terrifyingly high.

"Damn it!"

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, Ouch..."

After Xu Que went in, his scalp immediately exploded, and he screamed in pain repeatedly.

Even with the Pluto Prison Suppression Body operating, it was difficult to withstand such high temperatures.

Whoosh!

He immediately put on the Vibrant Armor and put on the Banshee Veil, not daring to underestimate the magma at all.

If he relied solely on the Pluto Prison Suppression Body, he would probably be scalded to death as a dead Xu Que if he stayed for another moment!

"Boom!"

Once the two pieces of equipment were put on, Xu Que immediately felt the magma wrapped around him retreat, the temperature dropped sharply, his whole body became relaxed, and even... a little cool!

If it followed the routine of ordinary novels, the protagonist would definitely have to endure terrible pain and torture at this time, finally being reborn through blood and tempering himself out of the magma.

But Xu Que was different from those flashy bitches outside. This guy loved to act cool and didn't like to suffer. With the system and the Pluto Prison Suppression Body, as long as the magma approached, he could absorb and upgrade it. He definitely wouldn't want to endure pain and torture for nothing.

He just wanted to bathe in the warm magma like this and comfortably raise his level!

"Ding, detected that there is a huge amount of Fire Yuan essence near the host, the Pluto Prison Suppression Body has begun to absorb it!"

"1%……2%……3%……"

The progress on the attribute table rose very quickly, and at the same time, Xu Que could feel that the magma in the magma pool was slowly decreasing.

Strands of Fire Yuan essence, crystal clear and brilliant, rushed through Xu Que's pores, surged inward, penetrated his meridians, and poured into his dantian to gather!

This Fire Yuan essence was used to temper the flesh and temper the bones and meridians!

Since the last tribulation, Xu Que had tempered his body with heavenly thunder, so his flesh was already very powerful. This time, with the magma of the Earth Core Fire Yuan dragon vein, his flesh immediately became even tougher. The bones in his body "crackled", splitting and then recovering, containing bits of Fire Yuan essence!

The Fire Spirit Root in his dantian transformed into a Nascent Soul, becoming increasingly powerful and emitting a faint halo!

"So comfortable!"

Xu Que had a satisfied smile on his face, swimming in the magma, and this magma was also slowly decreasing!

A few hours later, the magma had decreased by one-third, and the temperature was no longer so high. Most of the true essence had been completely absorbed by the Pluto Prison Suppression Body!

Xu Que narrowed his eyes slightly and took off the Banshee Veil and the Vibrant Armor.

Sure enough, his flesh had become tough and he no longer felt the slightest pain!

"It seems that if I face the Fire Emperor again this time, it will be enough to shatter his so-called dragon flames with one punch!"

Xu Que smiled coldly, closed his eyes again, and continued to absorb the Fire Yuan essence in the magma!

Time passed bit by bit...

A few more hours passed, and a system prompt suddenly sounded in Xu Que's mind.

"Ding, congratulations to the host, the fire attribute of the Pluto Prison Suppression Body has reached perfection, gaining a new ability—Flame Control!"

"Ding, because it is detected that the host is cultivating the Fire Yuan technique 'Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus', the new ability will increase the proficiency of 'Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus' by 10%!"

……

"Eh? Perfected?"

Xu Que suddenly opened his eyes, feeling a bit surprised.

Every time an attribute of the Pluto Prison Suppression Body reached perfection, he would gain the ability to control that attribute. Last time it was lightning control, this time it was flame control, and he also gained an extra 10% proficiency for "Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus".

This meant that his Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus was now at 40% progress and could fuse four types of strange fires!

"Hahaha, four-colored fire lotus? Combined with the full-stack Killing Book, even if the Fire Emperor has dragon Qi protection, he would be killed instantly, right?"

Xu Que laughed loudly!

But the next moment, the smile on his face froze!

He was still in a magma pool. Although the fire attribute of the Pluto Prison Suppression Body had reached perfection, the pool of magma had not been sucked dry. Although the temperature had dropped and the Fire Yuan essence had almost disappeared, more than half of the magma remained!

"Damn it, System, can you suck all this magma away? How about you lend me a few more tens of thousands of Acting Cool points, and I'll exchange for a water pump?"

Xu Que hurriedly asked the system.

The system responded indifferently: "It is not recommended for the host to do so. If all the magma disappears, the dragon vein will lose its nutrients, causing the Primordial Fire Spirit Grass to wither instantly!"

"What the hell? The disappearance of magma will cause the spirit grass to wither? Damn it, why didn't you tell me earlier! If I had sucked the magma dry just now, wouldn't that have been a big disaster?" Xu Que was startled.

"Ding, this system has calculated precisely that the Pluto Prison Suppression Body will not suck up all the magma, so the host was not prompted!"

"……"

Xu Que was speechless. There was no way around it, the system was just that arrogant, what could he do to it?

Because of this, he was even more determined that he would absolutely not pay back the 8,000 points of Acting Cool he had borrowed!

That was how tough he was, that was how firm he was!

However, Xu Que also had to accept a reality.

That was that he had to run out again, drag that damn emperor in, beat him until he cried, and then extract his blood to lure the dragon vein out!

"Damn emperor, this time I will definitely beat you until you cry!"

Xu Que hummed, swept up from the magma, and stepped toward the ancient tomb above.

At the same time, he did not know that at this moment, the imperial palace was filled with panic!

Because Xu Que had sucked away all the magma essence outside the dragon vein, the dragon Qi had dried up in an instant, and the aura in the dragon vein could not be replenished quickly, which caused the national fortune of the Fire Yuan Kingdom to collapse in an instant!

The Fire Emperor and Princess Yan Yang, as members of the Ji family, naturally sensed this, and their faces turned pale instantly!

"How... how could this be? Why can't we sense the dragon Qi?"

"Is there a problem with the formation, or..."

"No, that's not right, this is a sign that the country is about to perish!"

The Fire Emperor's heart was shaken, like a deflated ball, and he slumped to the ground!

Perish? As the country with the strongest strength among the five kingdoms, it was now about to perish?

Princess Yan Yang was also in disbelief. She didn't know why this was happening, but her intuition told her that this might be related to Xu Que, who had entered the imperial mausoleum.

Could it be... he touched the dragon vein? No, impossible, the dragon vein was clearly hidden, he could never find it!

"Yan Yang, quickly, send people to prepare for the sacrificial ceremony. I want to sacrifice to heaven and offer sacrifices to the Fire God. My Fire Yuan Kingdom... must not perish like this!"

Suddenly, the Fire Emperor stood up, his eyes splitting with rage!

Princess Yan Yang's face changed drastically after hearing this!

"Father Emperor, you... you want to sacrifice Lady Ya..."

"That's right, there is only this way now. Only by sacrificing her can we save the Fire Yuan Kingdom!"

"But..."

"There are no buts. Go and do it. The Water Emperor will enter the city tomorrow. After settling the Water Emperor, we will hold the sacrificial ceremony!"

"... Daughter understands!"
