Tan Yun looked at Tuoba Yingying with a serious expression and said, "Yingying, we have seventeen years left. By then, we must leave the Soul-Eating Abyss; otherwise, Su Bing and the others will be in danger!"
Hearing this, Tuoba Yingying nodded and said, "Yes, in addition, it will take us nine years to reach the exit of the Soul-Eating Abyss from here. This means we have eight more years to delve deeper, and we must return after those eight years."
"Okay," Tuoba Yingying replied, "Master, if you encounter danger, remember to call for me."
Then, Tuoba Yingying entered the Pavilion of Ascending to the Heavens, and Tan Yun transformed into a purple beam of light, flying towards Withered Cliff, three billion celestial li to the east...
One day later.
"I found Withered Cliff!" As Tan Yun was flying, a trace of joy appeared in his eyes. After a few moments, he landed in midair above the towering, withered cliff that was several hundred thousand zhang high.
"Where's the fire seed?" Tan Yun looked around the top of the Withered Cliff, but found it empty.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the ground shook violently, and as the green rocks beneath Tan Yun's feet cracked, an ancient roar erupted from within the mountain, "Damn human, you dare to trespass into my domain and seek death!"
"Whoooo—"
A fierce wind howled, and as if mourning, surging waves of intense heat and chilling coldness erupted from within the mountain!
In the next instant, a towering, ash-gray flame surged out from the mountain, engulfing Tan Yun!
Tan Yun focused his gaze and discovered that within the ash-gray flame, there was a purple-red hue!
"Hahaha, indeed it is the supreme emperor sovereign stage outer domain celestial demon fire!" Tan Yun was unafraid, laughing heartily, "Good, very good!"
Upon hearing this, the towering flame that was devouring Tan Yun paused in mid-air, and an astonished voice emerged from within, "Little fellow, who are you? How did you discern my identity?"
"You have no right to know who I am; just know that I am not afraid of you!" Tan Yun sneered and said, "Old thing, instead of staying in the Heavenly Domain Universe, you come to my domain's universe—the Primordial Chaos Nine Heavens Immortal Realm—are you looking for death?"
The voice of the old man within the towering flame was filled with rage, "You are talking nonsense! I am currently within the Heavenly Domain Universe…"
Before the old man could finish speaking, Tan Yun mocked, "Stop pretending to be confused with me. Who brought you to the domain's universe?"
"Lowly human, I do not know what you are talking about!" The outer domain celestial demon fire replied angrily, "I want to know how the humans in your domain's universe have entered our Heavenly Domain Universe in recent years!"
"But it doesn't matter that I don't know. I only know that you lowly humans deserve to die!"
As soon as the words fell, the outer domain celestial demon fire roared and engulfed Tan Yun, placing him in a sea of flames.
In the sea of flames, Tan Yun stood calmly with his hands behind his back, as if enjoying a spring breeze, unaffected by the burning of the outer domain celestial demon fire.
The voice of the outer domain celestial demon fire rose in shock and disbelief, "Ah! How can this be! Even a human at the eleventh level of the emperor sovereign realm cannot withstand my burning; why are you, an ant at the seventh-grade emperor realm, unafraid of me?"
Tan Yun laughed, "Have you burned enough? If you have, then it’s my turn to strike!"
"Primordial flame!"
"Primordial ice flame!"
Tan Yun suddenly pushed his palms upwards, and in an instant, a three-thousand zhang tall ice-blue primordial ice flame and a purple primordial flame erupted from his palms!
Immediately, the primordial flame and primordial ice flame intertwined in the void, forming a fiery net that enveloped the outer domain celestial demon fire.
"Lowly human, what kind of flame is this? Why can it devour me!"
"Human, let go of me! Let go of me! Don’t devour me, I apologize!" The outer domain celestial demon fire wailed in agony, struggling to break free from the bindings of the primordial ice flame and primordial flame, but found all its efforts futile!
