I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 757 A desperate situation leads to survival

Xia Daoming pondered for a long time, then suddenly looked up.

His gaze was bright and resolute.

"It seems we have no choice but to take a gamble and fight to the death."

Xia Daoming turned his gaze to the smallest fragment of the Heavenly Palace on the outer edge of the sealed-off area.

His mind then became completely absorbed in the ancient runes remaining on it.

This time, he has absorbed and refined a fragment of the Crimson Heaven, truly stepping into the threshold of the Crimson Heaven, and his understanding of these runes is far superior to before.

It didn't take long before those obscure runes lit up one by one in his mind.

Soon after, a flame slowly emerged from his chest.

The flame was neither one of the six true fires nor the pure original fire of Zhurong, but a completely new flame formed by the fusion of seven true fires.

Xia Daoming named it Chichen Tianhuo (赤宸天火).

This time, as soon as the Crimson Heavenly Fire approached the rune, it resonated with the Zhu Rong primordial flame within the fragment according to the rhythm displayed by the rune. In a short while, a wisp of crimson-gold flame was drawn out from the depths of the fragment.

"Just as I expected, the Crimson Heavenly Fire, which has fused with the True Fire of Zhurong's Origin, has a natural connection with the True Fire of Zhurong in the fragments!"

Looking at that wisp of crimson-gold flame, Xia Daoming's face showed relief and joy.

However, he quickly calmed down and dared not be careless in the slightest.

He carefully controlled the Crimson Heavenly Fire, gradually resonating with the True Fire of Zhu Rong's Origin, and slowly approaching it.

Ultimately, the Crimson Heavenly Fire came into contact with the True Fire of Zhu Rong's Origin.

In an instant, the Crimson Heavenly Fire, like the previous six True Fires, fluctuated violently, melting and extinguishing upon contact.

That excruciating burning pain still instantly assaulted my mind.

Xia Daoming knew that it wasn't that his Crimson Heavenly Fire was weak, but rather that the Crimson Heavenly Fire at this moment had only fused with a very small amount of Zhu Rong's original true fire, while the six true fires he cultivated, such as the Southern Bright Fire, were far from reaching the level of Zhu Rong's original true fire.

Therefore, at this time, the Crimson Heavenly Fire was still in its embryonic stage.

However, the Crimson Heavenly Fire contains the original true fire of Zhu Rong.

This natural connection caused the scene of the flames melting and extinguishing upon contact to quickly disappear, replaced by the continuous fusion of the Crimson Heavenly Fire and the True Fire of Zhurong's Origin.

Having learned from his previous experience, Xia Daoming successfully absorbed the Zhurong Primordial True Fire, which was encased in the Crimson Heavenly Fire, into his chest.

The intense pain, the feeling as if the Crimson Palace had been suddenly set ablaze, and the scene of the fire seemingly spiraling out of control reappeared.

This time, however, Xia Daoming was not surprised. Instead, he handled the situation very calmly and quickly brought the fire under control.

As the fire was suppressed, more of Zhurong's primordial fire merged into Xia Daoming's mind, and more insights emerged.

He became engrossed in it and continued to build the far-from-complete Crimson Heavenly Capital World.

Years passed.

Xia Daoming absorbed and refined the fragments of the Heavenly Palace, and the speed at which he forged the Crimson Heaven was getting faster and faster.

The number of fragments of the Heavenly Palace outside the sealed-off area is constantly decreasing.

Gradually, the fragments Xia Daoming collected reached the central area.

As the saying goes, a fortress is most easily breached from within!
Originally, even though the sealed-off area was a disorganized mess, the Demon Emperor's demonic energy would not be able to break through it in a short time.

However, as Xia Daoming continued to undermine his own forces, the already disorganized blockade area suffered further damage from within. Coupled with the increasingly frenzied impact of the Demon Emperor's demonic energy, it was besieged on all sides and became extremely precarious, seemingly on the verge of collapse at any moment.

Seeing this, Xia Daoming remained unmoved.

This was exactly what he expected.

A disorganized group is absolutely incapable of sealing this demonic aura of the Demon Emperor!

Only by fusing with enough of the Zhu Rong Origin True Fire to command all the fragments of the Heavenly Realm can he truly seal and even annihilate this demonic aura of the Demon Emperor.

This requires the courage and determination to put oneself in a life-or-death situation and then survive!
Xia Daoming continued to absorb and refine the fragments, further damaging the already crumbling sealed area. Huo Wutong, watching Xia Daoming single-mindedly and calmly absorb and refine the fragments to forge the Crimson Heaven World and protect him from external interference, was filled with anxiety every day.

If this demonic aura of the Demon Emperor were to break through the encirclement first, then its master and it would be the latter that would be annihilated!

It is unknown how many years have passed. Just when the Fire Phoenix Tree, which had been protecting its master year after year, was about to give up and its branches and leaves had turned yellow and withered, and it was almost exhausted, Xia Daoming suddenly opened his eyes.

An ancient, weathered, domineering, and majestic aura erupted from his body.

At that moment, the flames on all the broken fragments of the sky, both inside and outside the sealed-off area, suddenly froze.

It was as if they were being guided by some invisible will.

Xia Daoming slowly stood up.

He did not deliberately activate any magic techniques, but deep within his heart, the far from fully formed Crimson Heaven began to operate on its own.

The essence of fire emanated from it in concentric circles.

It was not fiery, but orderly and imposing, carrying an aura of dominance over everything.

Outside the sealed-off area, the fragments that had originally fought independently and instinctively suppressed the Demon Emperor's remaining power began to respond.

One piece, two pieces, three pieces...

The flames on the fragments no longer burned haphazardly, but gradually resonated with the Crimson Heavenly Fire within Xia Daoming's body.

"This is……"

The fire sycamore tree suddenly trembled.

It clearly sensed that the primordial fire of Zhurong remaining in those fragments of the Heavenly Palace was responding to and obeying Xia Daoming's command.

Xia Daoming raised his head, his gaze passing over the layers of fragments, and staring directly at the surging, remnant power of the Demon Emperor.

"I'm still faster!"

As soon as he made up his mind, the unfinished Crimson Heaven Capital suddenly accelerated its operation.

Streams of fire-like patterns extended from his body, like invisible fire veins, penetrating into the fragments of the Heavenly Palace.

The fragments began to move.

As they moved, the originally loose blockade structure began to undergo fundamental changes.

A truly central, orderly, and unified Demon-Suppressing Seal is taking shape.

The remnant power of the Demon Emperor seemed to finally realize something.

What had been surging and crashing ceaselessly came to a standstill at this moment.

Xia Daoming clearly felt a cold, twisted, and evil will descending upon him through the fragments of the Heavenly Palace and the forming seal.

That is not divine consciousness.

It wasn't a glance either.

Rather, it is a more primitive and higher sense of existence, as if as long as one is "remembered" by it, everything about oneself will be slowly eroded, corrupted, and assimilated.

"It...has noticed you."

Firewood's voice was unusually low.

"That's right, it finally realized that I am different from the other fragments. In a sense, I am the resurrected and reborn Fire Ancestor Zhurong!"
Once I gather all the fragments of the Crimson Heaven left behind by the Fire Ancestor and form a true Demon-Suppressing Seal, its demise will be imminent!

Next, it will inevitably launch a desperate counterattack, a final, desperate struggle! The real danger and test for me has arrived! Xia Daoming said in a deep voice.

His expression was solemn, yet tinged with anticipation and excitement.

It's a desire to challenge and conquer the strong, to climb to the top!

　That concludes today's update.
