Ever since the Blood Evil Yin Fire had refined enough Nether Fire Crystals to evolve into the Netherfire Devouring Flame, Chu Xuan had already devised a strategy to have the fire bees store the Netherfire Devouring Flame within their bodies.
However, these fire bees were bred by the Blood Bee Queen, who was a fourth-transformation Gu, yet it didn't mean the fire bees themselves were of the same caliber. Even though Chu Xuan had used the insect cultivation method from the cave world to enhance these fire bees, they could only store the Blood Evil Yin Fire for extended periods. The more powerful Netherfire Devouring Flame, however, was beyond their capacity.
At most, the fire bees could hold the Netherfire Devouring Flame for only ten days before they would burn up from the heat and die. These fire bees had been cultivated during the voyage to the Nine Yin Island, and now was the time to use them.
"This flame… it's the Nether Fire from the Nether Fire Valley!" True Master Yin's voice trembled, and his eyes widened in shock. "How do you have it?"
His soul was being ruthlessly burned, consumed by the Netherfire Devouring Flame. At that moment, he remembered the terrifying battle he had fought against the Netherfire King in the Netherfire Valley. His soul had been gravely injured in that battle.
Chu Xuan remained silent, his eyes cold. Under his command, the fire bees continued to spew Netherfire Devouring Flame relentlessly. Every time True Master Yin tried to break free, the fire forced him back.
Desperately, he tried to retract the Black Yin Pearl to protect himself. But with a swift wave of Chu Xuan's hand, Hu and Long surged forward, one on each side, directly blocking the Black Yin Pearl. Especially after Hu landed a mighty punch, the surface of the Black Yin Pearl cracked.
True Master Yin's face turned ashen with despair.
Who was this Nascent Soul cultivator?
His magic treasures were endless, his Spiritual Qi vast, his spiritual sense terrifying, his mastery over poisons and Gu arts uncanny, and his ability to cultivate corpses astonishing!
Was this something a normal person could achieve?
What he didn't know was that Chu Xuan still had several trump cards yet to be played.
"Spare me... spare my life," True Master Yin gasped, struggling to maintain his composure. "I can give you anything you want... There's no need for this to end in death... We can cooperate... and both benefit..."
Chu Xuan's voice remained icy and emotionless. "From the day you started chasing me, you were doomed to die."
True Master Yin froze, his eyes wide in disbelief. After a long pause, he roared, "You… You are Chu Xuan?! You're still alive?!"
Chu Xuan smiled faintly. "Now you know? Too late. Make your journey. You shall become the food of the Netherfire Devouring Flame."
With a swift motion, he unleashed more black-red flames.
Boom!
The vast cave was almost entirely engulfed by the Netherfire Devouring Flame.
This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.
True Master Yin screamed in agony, but he could no longer resist. His flesh and soul were being refined by the flames.
Chu Xuan couldn't help but shake his head.
Under the burning heat of the Netherfire Devouring Flame, the Black Yin Pearl quickly lost its luster, cracking from end to end. True Master Yin's other magic treasures were likely destroyed as well.
Such a pity.
Only after True Master Yin's life force had completely dissipated did Chu Xuan retract the flames.
"Huh, the storage bag is still here?"
Chu Xuan's expression shifted with surprise as he noticed the storage bag amidst the pile of black ash. He picked it up and quickly realized why it hadn't been burned.
This wasn't a magic treasure but rather a spiritual artifact!
It wasn't just any storage bag, but a Universe Bag. While a high-grade storage bag could hold a thousand cubic feet, the Universe Bag could hold up to ten thousand!
Moreover, while a storage bag couldn't store living creatures, even a top-tier one, the Universe Bag could.
It could hold spiritual beasts, Gu insects, and the like. However, due to the lack of Spiritual Qi inside the Universe Bag, any creatures stored within would fall into a dormant state, and their growth would slow considerably.
To raise them properly, one would need a specialized Universe Bag, such as a spiritual beast Universe Bag or a Gu insect Universe Bag.
"This might just be my first spiritual artifact," Chu Xuan mused with a smile as he stowed the Universe Bag away.
True Master Yin might have left something behind in this bag, so he would wait for a safer time to open it. After all, there were still two people waiting outside. He couldn't afford to delay them.
