Chapter 61: The Burning Heaven Emperor?
It wasn’t easy for Li Ran to get Yue Jianli under control.
First, he sealed her with a spiritual pressure seal, and then he tightly held her in his arms.
“Quickly let me go!” Yue Jianli glared at him hatefully, her eyes filled with shame and anger.
“Then you have to guarantee that you won’t kill me with your sword.” Li Ran was a little worried.
“You beast!” Yue Jianli was agitated and took a bite out of Li Ran’s hand.
“Damn, are you a dog? Don’t bite my hand!”
“……”
At this moment, text appeared in the sky:
【The end of the Final Trial.】
Followed by the text, a familiar white light enveloped the two of them and they appeared in another palace.
This palace was even more magnificent.
It was filled with immortal qi, and the sound of an immortal spiraling in one’s ears made one feel like they were in a fairyland.
In front of the two, an old man with an immortal aura was looking at them kindly.
“Congratulations, you’ve passed the final trial.” The old man’s voice was amicable.
Yue Jianli hurriedly broke free from his embrace and straightened her clothes with a red face.
Cough cough
Li Ran cleared his throat awkwardly. “Who are you?”
The old man’s voice was clear. “Kid, didn’t you go through all these difficulties and obstacles to obtain my inheritance? You still don’t know who I am?”
“The Immortal Emperor?” Li Ran and Yue Jianli looked at each other, their hearts pounding.
Could this person be the Ancient Immortal Emperor?
Yue Jianli asked carefully, “May I ask for your esteemed name?”
“Hahaha!” The old man’s laughter echoed in the hall. “Ignorant child! I am the Immortal Emperor from ancient times, the Burning Heaven Emperor!”
“Burning Heaven Emperor?” Yue Jianli covered her mouth and exclaimed in alarm, “You are the Burning Heaven Emperor who had conquered the entire world?!”
He was a real big shot!
Rumor had it that he controlled more than ten types of Heavenly Flames, and dictated an era.
This secret realm was actually the inheritance of the Burning Heaven Emperor!
Even if she was indifferent, it was unavoidable that her heart would be moved at this moment.
Li Ran, on the other hand, didn’t move. He crossed his arms as he observed the old man.
“Didn’t the Immortal Emperors of ancient times already disappear? Why are you still here?”
The elder stroked his beard and said, “This emperor’s true body has already left for outer space, only leaving behind a strand of this emperor’s willpower to guard this secret realm, waiting for someone destined to arrive.”
“Then why did we both advance? Who does this inheritance belong to?” Li Ran followed up and asked.
“This…”
The old man rolled his eyes and said, “It’s because both of you are the destined one. Each person can claim half of the inheritance! Don’t worry, this one’s cultivation is vast. Even if it’s half of the inheritance, it’s enough for you to ascend to the Emperor Level!”
“Half of the inheritance?” Li Ran felt that something was wrong.
At this moment, a “ding” sounded in his mind. A system prompt sounded:
【Mission issued.】
【The Fiendish Red Fox is pretending to be the Burning Heaven Emperor, hoping to steal a physical body to leave the secret realm. Please kill it!】
“You really are fake!”
Li Ran sneered.
At this moment, the old man urged, “Don’t waste your time. Which one of you will come first to accept the inheritance?”
He looked very anxious.
Yue Jianli also sensed that something was wrong and quietly pulled Li Ran’s clothes.
“Isn’t quite right…”
Li Ran didn’t seem to notice. He hurriedly said, “I’ll do it. I’ll claim it first!”
“Li Ran!” Yue Jianli wanted to remind him, but he turned around and winked at her.
She immediately reacted and shut her mouth.
“Alright, then you can relax and open your heart’s door. I will give you the inheritance!”
The old man’s hand shone with bright red light as he slowly pressed down on Li Ran’s hand.
Seeing that the red light was about to touch him, the old man’s eyes grew even more excited. Suddenly, a large hand gripped his wrist tightly.
“En? What are you doing?” The old man frowned.
“You’re a Fiendish Red Fox, correct? You really like impersonating others!”
“What?!” When the old man heard this name, his expression instantly changed. He hastily tried to retract his hand.
However, when Li Ran grabbed his hand, a dazzling white light suddenly appeared!
“Demon Thrashing Fist!”
The white light was like a strong acid, instantly corroding the old man’s wrist, as the old man hissed and emitted wisps of black smoke.
“Ah!” The old man let out a heart-wrenching howl. He didn’t have the appearance of an immortal daoist like before.
“The Burning Heaven Emperor? Do you really think we’re fools?” Li Ran laughed coldly.
This Godly technique was a demon’s nemesis.
In addition, the old man was extremely weak and his body was easily corroded by the white light.
“Let me go, please let me go. I will pass the inheritance to you!” The old man howled and begged for mercy.
However, Li Ran remained unmoved and activated his fist attack to the extreme.
The old man’s body was like the first snow meeting the blazing sun. He quickly melted under the white light, and in the end, he turned into a crimson fox demon.
It laid on the ground struggling.
“What is this?” Yue Jianli covered her mouth in surprise.
Actually, the Fiendish Red Fox was the same as the Tao Wu. They were demons that had been sealed here. However, because the seal had been loosened, it had managed to find a chance to escape.
However, it had been heavily injured as a result, and its strength was nowhere to be found.
Although it had left the coffin, it was still trapped in this secret realm.
This time, the Fiendish Red Fox happened to catch up to Li Ran and the others who came to seek fortuitous encounters. He had come up with a plan to pose as the Burning Heaven Emperor.
It attempted to escape from the place and turn into a new leaf through the body of others.
Unfortunately, it was easily seen through by the system…
The Fiendish Red Fox’s body trembled, and its voice was sharp and ear-piercing. “I beg you, please spare my life. I’ll bring you the true immortal destiny…”
Bang!
Li Ran stabbed its head with his spear.
“Noisy.”
