Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2242: Chapter 2243: Flame God Palace (Second Update)

A Great Elder of the Zhai Family spoke as he eagerly stepped onto the lotus closest to the shore.

But as soon as his foot touched the lotus, there was a loud bang, and a flame shot into the sky, enveloping him completely.

"Ahhh!" The elder let out a piercing scream and began to struggle desperately.

"Great Elder!" Zhai Dewen exclaimed in shock, rushing forward to save him.

But at that moment, he was firmly held back by his daughter, Zhai Zhuqing.

"It’s useless. You can’t save him; he’s doomed!" Zhai Zhuqing said, trembling.

Indeed.

The Great Elder only struggled for a few moments before falling backward and was incinerated into ashes by the flames before even touching the lake.

Gasp!

Everyone present couldn’t help but inhale sharply.

Everyone who reached this place was formidable, and this Great Elder was a prominent figure in the Zhai Family. Yet, he was turned to ash just by stepping on a lotus.

Just how terrifying was this lotus?

As everyone was in shock, the Holy Maiden suddenly snorted coldly.

"Mere flames dare to block me? Witch Deity appear!"

Boom!

An overwhelmingly terrifying force emanated from her, and a phantom image of a green-faced Witch Deity appeared before everyone.

The face of this deity was blurred, seated in a meditative pose, instilling deep fear.

Then the deity slowly extended its hand, pressing down.

Midway, the hand transformed into an enormous palm, bridging the lake and the mountain like a bridge.

Boom!

The water beneath the palm erupted in fierce flames, frantically scorching the palm.

The power surrounding the Witch Deity quickly dissipated.

"Go! The Witch Deity can only hold for a quarter of an hour!" the Holy Maiden ordered sternly, charging forward.

Seeing this, everyone immediately followed.

All those present were renowned powerhouses, and the group quickly crossed the lake and reached the mountain base, ascending rapidly along the steps.

At the same time, Xue An and his two companions finally reached the pinnacle of Mount Bu Zhou.

Despite their incredible speed, able to traverse thousands of miles in an instant, it took them a long time to reach the summit, showing just how towering Mount Bu Zhou was.

In that moment, the surroundings had become nearly pitch black, resembling boundless outer space.

Yet, amid this setting, stood a solitary palace.

This palace was desolate and ancient, full of combat scars, but still exuded a captivating aura, making one afraid to look directly.

"Flame God Palace..." Zhu Zhesheng read the plaque above softly, then looked at Xue An in excitement.

"Mr. Xue, this should be the true immortal sect’s sanctuary!"

However, Xue An showed no joy; his gaze was incredibly calm.

"The secret protected by the Zhu Family for generations is finally about to be revealed in my hands!" Zhu Zhesheng exclaimed, uncontrollably excited, stepping forward eagerly to enter the palace.

But just as he took a step, barely touching the ground, he suddenly vanished.

Indeed.

He vanished in the literal sense.

As if some mysterious power erased him, disappearing without a trace.

Yue Qinghuan, witnessing this, exclaimed, "What...?"

Before she could finish her words, she too disappeared.

This abrupt change would bewilder anyone, but Xue An merely raised an eyebrow, then looked ahead.

For at that moment, the scene before his eyes transformed dramatically.

The empty void above vanished, replaced by countless flames as stars on a vast dome.

Below, the ground turned into tiles made of fire-red crystal stone.

But the focus was on a tall shrine that appeared ahead, with a deity statue on top.

The statue wore a crimson robe; though its features were obscured by darkness, its majestic aura was palpable.

Standing before it, even Xue An seemed insignificant.

Xue An’s gaze burned like two flames as he stared at the statue, then said slowly, "Fire God Zhu Rong?"

As if responding to his call, a soft sigh came from the statue, followed by a majestic voice.

"Since you know who I am, why do you not kneel?"

This voice echoed mightily in the grand temple, filled with overwhelming pressure.

Yet amidst the tumultuous sound waves, Xue An stood firm as a sword.

"Why should I kneel? Just because you’re a deity?"

His voice was icy, but contrary to expectations, the statue did not react angrily and instead chuckled softly.

"Indeed worthy of the Hua Clan, truly unyielding!"

Xue An gazed intently at the statue.

Suddenly.

A man wearing a royal crown appeared before the statue.

With his appearance, the entire hall brightened significantly.

"To think, after so many ages, there would be descendants of the Hua Clan stepping onto this land!"

Xue An remained silent, deep in thought as he observed the man.

"Oh! How lively it is today; another group has arrived outside, even carrying the aura of a shaman. Young man, are they your companions too?"

"Except for the two who just accompanied me, the others are not!" Xue An replied firmly.

"Hehe, in that case, let them wait outside for a while! As for those two companions of yours, no need to worry; I merely sent them to rest elsewhere. After all, only those of the Hua Clan are eligible to enter this temple!"

"So, you truly are the Fire God Zhu Rong, and this is indeed the legendary Mount Bu Zhou?" Xue An asked directly, ignoring the man’s ramblings.

"Who else but this deity could be called the Fire God? As for this mountain..."

"It is definitely Mount Bu Zhou!"

With that, the man suddenly flashed and stood before Xue An.

"You not only carry the Hua Clan’s aura but also bear a unique flame, seemingly the Pure White Celestial Fire mixed with something else. May I take a look?"

Though spoken as a request, the next instant, a wisp of the Red Lotus Karma Fire from Xue An’s sea of consciousness involuntarily flew out, appearing before the man.
