Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Chapter 202 Fire Child: It seems this time the odds are against us!

"What kind of rat is this...?"

The black-armored figure seemed to have sensed Gu Fei's arrival. He was proud of his invincibility in this area over the long years.

However, after carefully sensing the aura emanating from Gu Fei, he swallowed back the arrogant words that were about to come out of his mouth.

"thump!"

The next moment, the black-armored figure knelt down on the boulder in front of Gu Fei.

"Greetings, senior!"

"I was unaware of your arrival, senior, and have failed to greet you properly. Please forgive me!"

The black-armored figure kowtowed, his words filled with respect, as if he feared Gu Fei would kill him.

Although he has died once, he can at least exist in another form.

However, if Gu Fei destroys the crystal core, then there will truly be nothing left.

Seeing the actions of the black-armored figure, Gu Fei was taken aback. He hadn't expected that the guy who had transformed into an energy body would be so conscious of his "life".

"Senior, as long as you don't kill me, I'm willing to serve you as my master, to be your slave!"

The black-armored figure was still begging for mercy.

Over the years, he had encountered some living people who entered this place, but they were all juniors, and very few were as powerful as Gu Fei.

"Before I came in, the elders of the clan told me to take good care of the others. Perhaps leaving behind this nine-star energy body might still be of some use!" Gu Fei thought quickly.

According to the original description, more than half a year after the opening of the Heavenly Tomb, an energy storm will rise in the second level of the Heavenly Tomb.

Faced with such a natural disaster, even a cultivator with the cultivation level of a nine-star Dou Zun would have a slim chance of survival. If they encountered one like Gu Qingyang or Gu Yao, they might not be able to withstand it.

These two are both outstanding talents of the ancient clans in the present era. Gu Fei also has a relationship with them, and knowing that there is danger, he naturally cannot sit idly by.

Of course, Gu Fei wouldn't waste time waiting for them on this second floor.

"Senior, please let me go..."

"Fine, I'll keep you for now!"

"Thank you for sparing my life, senior!"

The black-armored figure kept kowtowing, and when Gu Fei spoke, his face was full of gratitude.

"Since I've spared your life, there are some things you need to do for me!"

"Just give the order, senior! I'll go through fire and water without hesitation!"

The figure in black armor kowtowed repeatedly.

The next moment, a jade tablet appeared in Gu Fei's hand, and he quickly separated a wisp of his soul power and injected it into the jade tablet.

"Take this jade token. If, in the coming days, another living person like me appears on this second level, try to avoid them!"

"Remember this: five months from now, crush this jade pendant. If you do not do so..."

"A major storm?...Yes, senior, I've remembered everything you said!"

The black-armored figure listened attentively to Gu Fei's words, kowtowing repeatedly. When he looked up one day, he found that Gu Fei had disappeared, leaving only a jade tablet behind.

"Five months... Come to think of it, I can't even remember the last time I kept track of time..."

Holding the jade token, a look of emotion suddenly appeared on the face of the black-armored figure.

……

Three days later, Gu Fei finally arrived at the entrance to the third level of the Heavenly Tomb.

Here, similar to the entrance to the second level, an enormous energy curtain pours down from the sky, finally perpendicular to the ground.

The difference is that the energy barrier leading to the third level has materialized and must be forcibly broken through in order to enter the third level.

"puff!"

As Gu Fei approached the extremely thick energy crystal wall, a strange fire suddenly rose from his palm. Now, Gu Fei's strange fire had fused with five different strange fires: the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, the Sea Core Flame, the Fallen Heart Flame, the Three Thousand Flame Fire, and the Bone Spirit Cold Fire. Its temperature was extremely terrifying.

Furthermore, with the powerful Dou Qi he had unleashed upon reaching the Dou Sheng level, the flames instantly melted a large section of the crystal wall. At this rate, the hundred-zhang-thick crystal wall could be burned through within minutes.

With the strange fire clearing the way ahead, Gu Fei easily entered the energy crystal wall. Not long after, a series of small crackling sounds came from within the crystal wall, a sound different from the sound of melting crystal walls.

Gu Fei was not surprised by the strange sound. He knew that the sound came from the ancient devouring insects living in the energy crystal wall being burned by his strange fire.

If it weren't for the suppression by the strange fire, these ancient devouring insects would have quickly filled the empty energy walls, eventually trapping people inside.

After continuously activating the strange fire, Gu Fei finally broke through the crystal wall completely after ten minutes.

An endless expanse of gray land suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

This land is extremely vast, and you can't even see the end of it when you look at it.

There wasn't a dense energy mist swirling around here, but when Gu Fei stepped on it, he could feel streams of pure energy continuously seeping into his body through the soles of his feet.

"As expected of the third level of the Heavenly Tomb!"

"Cultivating here is even more effective than consuming seventh-grade pills every day!"

Sensing the high energy concentration here, Gu Fei's face showed a hint of surprise.

Moreover, most of the energy beings you encounter here are at least eight stars.

Even those who had reached the level of a half-saint were not few in number, so Gu Fei began to rush headlong into the depths of the third level.

In the time that followed, Gu Fei began to fight relentlessly, frantically plundering energy cores.

……

"boom!"

On the second level of the Heavenly Tomb, in an area filled with scattered rocks, a woman dressed in red released extremely hot red flames, burning the three energy entities in front of her into nothingness.

"Huo Zhi, you've made great progress in the past six months. You instantly killed three eight-star energy beings who attacked you. I reckon you're almost at the first stage of transformation!"

Huo Xuan of the Yan Clan appeared beside the woman in red, grinning as he spoke.

"Um!"

Huo Zhi nodded slightly, saying very little.

Suddenly, Huo Zhi and Huo Xuan simultaneously sensed two auras rapidly approaching them from the distant sky.

"What bad luck! My first time entering the Heavenly Tomb and I've already encountered something this terrifying!"

"You two should run too! If this huge storm catches up with us, even a peak Dou Zun expert will perish here!"

The two were Gu Qingyang and Gu Yao from the ancient clan. At this moment, they noticed Huo Zhi from the Yan clan and kindly gave him a reminder.

"Energy storm?"

Upon hearing Gu Qingyang's words, Huo Zhi and the other person's expressions changed drastically at the same time.

Their gazes turned to Gu Qingyang's back, where a dense energy hurricane roared in from the horizon, eventually forming a terrifying chain reaction.

Ultimately, this led to the rapid formation of a massive energy storm in this world.

"run!"

After a moment of stunned silence, Huo Zhi and Huo Xuan, without time to reflect, quickly moved and joined the fleeing group.
