Unparalleled Martial Arts

Qin Chu went down the pit. Only by jumping over the pit would he be able to get close to the bottom of the altar's stone platform. Only then would he be able to climb up from the bottom of the altar.    

After going down the pit, Qin Chu conveniently collected all the Spirit Stone beside him. There was no reason for him not to take good things.    

While collecting the Spirit Stone, Qin Chu approached the altar.    

When Qin Chu dug out a larger crystal and buried it in the ground, a sense of danger approached. Qin Chu dodged to the side. At this time, a dim light brushed past Qin Chu's body, bringing with it a stinky smell.    

Qin Chu turned his head and saw a black snake. This snake was as thick as an arm, and its body was coiled into a ball. On its triangular head, a pair of eyes with a dim light looked at Qin Chu.    

The snake's eyes were for decoration, and its vision was very poor. It relied on heat, smell, and vibration to determine its target, but Qin Chu could confirm that the snake's eyes were definitely not for decoration, and it carried a fierce aura.    

While Qin Chu was observing, this black snake moved. Its tail whipped the ground, and its body once again rushed towards Qin Chu. Qin Chu waved his Blue Spirit Sword and slashed at black snake.    

Ding! Qin Chu's sword was very fast. It hit black snake, but it didn't cut black snake into two as he had expected.    

Black snake's body was as hard as metal, and he managed to withstand Qin Chu's sword. However, because of Qin Chu's great strength, he was sent flying by the impact.    

Black snake's ferociousness was aroused. He kept lunging at Qin Chu. His big mouth was aimed at Qin Chu's head and Neck, and his tail was aimed at Qin Chu's body.    

Qin Chu could only attack with his sword, but he couldn't hurt black snake at all. Qin Chu had also confirmed black snake's cultivation base. He was at the eighth level of the Fifth Grade Heavenly Yuan Realm, which was two levels higher than Qin Chu.    

Qin Chu felt that he really couldn't kill black snake in a fight. He couldn't kill black snake at all! black snake's defense was too powerful. It would be a waste of time if he kept fighting like this. He had to attack his weak point.    

Weakness... black snake's entire body was covered by the extremely overbearing black armor. After the weak point was his mouth and butt. However, it was very difficult to hurt black snake from his butt. black snake's speed was really too fast.    

Qin Chu only had one choice, and that was black snake's big mouth.    

When black snake lunged at him again, Qin Chu casted the Vermillion Bird Claws the Heavens. It was the energy claw. The energy claw grabbed black snake's body. After reducing black snake's speed, the Blue Spirit Sword in Qin Chu's hand quickly made a diagonal thrust. It followed black snake's mouth and went in diagonally.    

Qin Chu's Blue Spirit Sword passed through black snake's upper jaw and pierced into his head.    

When the Blue Spirit Sword hit its target, Qin Chu rotated his right arm with force. The Blue Spirit Sword rolled along with black snake. It was originally going up diagonally, but now it was going down diagonally.    

The tip of the Blue Spirit Sword's sword stabbed into the ground. Qin Chu lifted his right foot and stepped on black snake's Neck. After restricting black snake's head, he pulled out half of the Blue Spirit Sword and stabbed it in. After stabbing back and forth a few times, black snake's brain was shattered. Only then did Qin Chu draw his sword and retreat.    

Qin Chu let out a breath. This black snake was too difficult to kill. Just now, he had controlled black snake well and almost made black snake bite his hand. He was sure that if black snake bit him, the consequences would be tragic. This black snake was a deadly poison.    

Black snake rolled around for a while and stopped moving. Qin Chu put this black snake into a separate Storage Ring. Then, he continued to approach the altar, but his alertness was also higher than before. With black snake's presence, it would be easier for him to have other Demonic Beast.    

However, when Qin Chu walked to the bottom of the altar, no other Demonic Beast appeared.    

Qin Chu crawled towards the top of the altar and approached the heteropyrexia.    

As he got closer and closer to the heteropyrexia, Qin Chu was able to determine what kind of flame it was. According to the book Mei Tianling gave him, this heteropyrexia was an Inkling Flame. When it was completely black, that would be when the Inkling Flame matured. At that time, it would be difficult to subdue it.    

The altar was very tall, nearly twenty zhang tall. cultivator, who was only at the sixth step, might be able to fly up in a flash. Qin Chu, who didn't have a sixth step cultivation base, could only climb up.    

After a quarter of an hour, Qin Chu arrived at the top of the altar. He was only twenty zhang away from the dancing black and white flames.    

The top of the altar was flat. Qin Chu was able to stand firmly on the top of the altar. He slowly walked towards the flames. When he was very close to the flames, his elemental energy cultivation erupted and wrapped around the black and white flames.    

The Inkling Flame exploded after being wrapped by Qin Chu's elemental energy. It lunged at Qin Chu. Although it didn't have any intelligence, it had its own instincts.    

When the Inkling Flame approached Qin Chu, a fiery light burst out from Qin Chu's body. It was the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame. It had blocked the attack of the Inkling Flame. At the same time, it wrapped the Inkling Flame up and started burning the Inkling Flame. The Inkling Flame also began to expand and compete with the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame.    

Qin Chu controlled the elemental energy to suppress the Inkling Flame in the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame. The Inkling Flame had always been resisting the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame, so it didn't have time to deal with Qin Chu's suppression.    

The Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame was much stronger than the Inkling Flame, and the Inkling Flame was at a disadvantage.    

The Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame also had a name called the Vermillion Bird Heaven Burning Flame. It was one of the more domineering existences within the heteropyrexia. Furthermore, it had been in shape for a long time, so it already had its own intelligence. Therefore, the Inkling Flame was absolutely no match for it.    

As it burned the Inkling Flame and absorbed the fire energy contained within it, the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame became more and more powerful.    

With this, the Inkling Flame became weaker and weaker. When the Inkling Flame was only three inches tall, Qin Chu felt that if the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame continued to devour, the Inkling Flame would be extinguished. It would completely turn into nothingness. He felt that he should give the Inkling Flame a chance to live. Although the Inkling Flame wasn't a living creature, it could still be considered a spiritual object.    

Qin Chu's thoughts were transmitted into the flame of the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame. The Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame returned to its original position. It kept jumping around, expressing its joy. It had become much stronger.    

After expressing its joy, the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame returned to Qin Chu's body.    

When the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame returned, it could only suppress Qin Chu's elemental energy. The Inkling Flame's condition was much better.    

"Although I gave you a chance to live, in this restricted area... If you can't hold on any longer, it will be destroyed. Your fate is still hard to say." Qin Chu sighed. At this moment, the sealing energy above the Inkling Flame was very thin. This was the energy that was being burned during the battle between the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame and the Inkling Flame. He estimated that it wouldn't take more than a few days. The natural spatial pressure of the Holy Martial Continent was about to break the seal. The rising altar would also pierce through the seal.    

Qin Chu retracted the elemental energy. When he did so, the Inkling Flame followed his elemental energy and plunged into Qin Chu's body.    

Qin Chu was shocked. He used the Vermillion Bird Sacred Flame to attack. However, the Inkling Flame followed Qin Chu's Neck and entered his head.    

Qin Chu's head shook and became dizzy. Then, it became clear again. At this time, he found a space in his head, and the Inkling Flame was jumping around.    

Raising a tiger would bring disaster upon itself? Inkling Flame seeking revenge? Qin Chu felt that it didn't seem like it, because the Inkling Flame was very gentle at this moment, it didn't have any intention of harming him.    

Qin Chu didn't understand what was going on. He felt that after he went out, he had to thoroughly investigate Gu Dian and find out what exactly was going on with this Inkling Flame.
