Celestial Peak

Chapter 578: Life and Death II

"We either and save everyone or let him be and allow him to kill everyone and I am not going to stand to let him take Qinyang." Bai Xue said with conviction, "I will kill him a million times over if it means to save Qinyang."

Wang Ling smirked, "Good, we're on the same page."

He may question it, but when Wang Ling sets his attention to something, he would follow it to the end. He willed it that his family shall survive and as it had always been, Wang Ling shall follow through, "Let's begin."

"Once we begin, we cannot stop. Make a mistake, this whole space will crumble, and if it does, we will live, but the flames will be unleashed on the outside world." 

"I know."

"Okay." Bai Xue stopped talking and clapped her hands.

The dimension cracked, but it did not become any less stable. 

The cracks spread out like spiderweb. The cracks then started to glow different hues of black and white, and almost immediately, the temperature of the dimension rose past that of the ever-present sun.

Wang Ling possesses three kinds of flames with differing attributes.

The True Heavenly Flames that purify.

The True Hellish Flames that destroy.

The True Chaos Flames that engulf.

These flames have Ignitions each, having their own special characteristics and evolves in accordance to Wang Ling's will. After his death, the True Heavenly Flames and the True Hellish Flames gained higher consciousness and took over what they believed their birthright, turning the lower realms of Heaven Hell into their own home.

All but one was spared from the realms for the Devils and Holy Race to call their homes and if not for Bai Xue's interference, nothing would have remained.

These two flames were referred to as Beast Gods who continues to grow in strength without any signs of slowing down. They have grown so strong than nothing could control them and only because the universe was created by their father that they stay themselves from destroying everything.

But there was also the fact that the two had grown to strong to ever step out of their realms. Their existence was too big to fit to any portal, and their intense, and uncontrolled flames was too hot to be unleashed outside, other than the Origin World.

They appeared in the Origin World and destroyed an army of 100,000 with the help of their Father. Then, when unleased a second time, a single gaze from God Beast Fer incinerated the frost of the Ancestor.

The purifying flames and the destructive flames were already stiflingly strong, but what Wang Ling needed was neither of the two. What Wang Ling needed was the true face of the third flame, one that carry the same hue of the beginning, the flames that breath and deconstruct life to the essence of an intangible force Chaos.

A flickering gray flame roused from the darkness. Illuminated by it was Wang Ling sitting cross-legged surrounded by a black bead and a golden arrowhead as well as both his natal weapons infused by the original Blood Seeker.

The flickering flame was no brighter than candle light, but its intensity was incomparably stronger than anything that could be found anywhere but the Chaos Furnace.

Wang Ling raised his hands. On his right palm was a white snake and on the left was a black lion. Both were smiling as they communicated with their creator, "Lend me your strengths."

Wang Ling whispered and the two turned to wisps that wrapped themselves around his neck. His indomitable flesh felt the burning sensation crawling around his body as he breathed out and proceeded to crush the treasures in front of him. The forging of the Blood Seeker and reclamation of Wang Ling's other half begun.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!?"

The ground shook as Xiao Jianfa learned of the news that Qinyang had been taken by the Emperor of Death. The open pagoda where he, Xiang Yu, Fae, and Rith were playing their game turned to dust as his sword intent pulverized everything.

"Dear, calm down. We can do nothing if we lose our composure, as the leaders of remaining warriors, we cannot show ourselves losing composure. It had not even been a complete day after the invasion." Xiao Yu reminded Xiao Jianfa of their position.

She spoke calmly and rationally, but her eyes were blood red and her anger was rising, "Though we do not know how he could enter this place without being detected, but that's beside the matter. What's important is ensuring that Qinyang is safe but we also need to reinforce our defenses. As of right now, we cannot have any more possible sneak attacks, Dear, go with the others to sweep the world of any sign of Death Qi." Xiao Yu ordered her husband to sweep the entire world.

"Brother Jianfa, you can have Phena (Vermillion Bird Ancestor) and Prima (Azure Dragon Ancestor) help you. We cannot waste any more time. Phena is currently treating the injured with her Immortal Flames, as for Prima, he's in self-isolation at the southern Glaciers for his conflicting thoughts on the All-Mother and our creator.

"Inform them of the situation, and without fail they will come to your aid. But make sure to keep them in check. If they learn that the Young Miss is missing, they might charge out of the world and search for her on their own. She's an important person, not just because of her lineage. The Young Miss is but the one who helped us tether ourselves to the current Era. If not for her help, we wouldn't be able to accept our reality. She's the child we gave our Cores, and the heart of the youngest generation. As for Garm and Philas, you are the grandfather of the All-Father, they'll eat excrements if you command them. They are at the Western Peak, meditating." The two spoke in a chorus.

"I understand, thank you for the information, Sisters." Xiao Jianfa left in a haste.

"What of Yuan Ming and Yuan Qing?" Fae and Rith asked almost immediately.

Wang Yue shook her head, "They were killed, and was used to ambush me."

With a downcast expression, Fae and Right bit their lower lips. 

Yuan Ming and Yuan Qing were no simple servants. They were the closest friends of Qinyang, as well as the favorite of both Fae and Rith amongst the newest generations.

"But, worry not, we have not destroyed their Abyssal Forms yet. There might be a chance to save them." Wang Yue suddenly said.

"Huh? What do you mean?" even Fae and Rith, the ever-composed leaders of the Ancestors could not keep their composures at her sudden words.

"The Furnace of Chaos might just revert them back."
