Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 821: Chapter 434: The Despicable Barrier (Part 2)

"Boom!"

Only a loud bang was heard.

This powerful force directly pushed Bai Yiyi back a hundred meters.

"Bai Yiyi!"

The two Demon Clan members saw this and quickly flew toward the direction where Bai Yiyi was pushed away.

The strength of the two Demon Clan members was not weak, and they directly caught Bai Yiyi.

"Bai Yiyi, are you all right?"

One of the Demon Clan members asked.

"Gu Sheng... Gu Sheng is dead... dead..."

Bai Yiyi’s eyes were filled with tears, her expression one of deep sorrow.

Soon, Ji Hui and the others flew over.

She looked at Bai Yiyi’s state at that moment, and the smile on her face grew more radiant.

"Gu Sheng is already dead, no matter how angry you are, it won’t change that fact."

Ji Hui said, pointing at the volcanic soil beneath her feet, "You can scoop up this volcanic soil, considering it to be Gu Sheng’s ashes."

"You..."

Bai Yiyi wanted to break free and confront Ji Hui again.

But the two Demon Clan members could not watch Bai Yiyi go to her death, so they desperately held her back.

"Bai Yiyi, don’t do it, no, don’t!"

"Yeah, you aren’t their match, you can’t beat them."

The two Demon Clan members persuaded.

"No! I want to avenge Gu Sheng!"

Bai Yiyi cried out in resentment.

"Ehh..."

Suddenly, a strange sound echoed.

After hearing this sound, Ji Hui directly said to Bai Yiyi: "All right, Bai Yiyi, our Ji family awaits at any time, but now the Holy Master of the Ji family is summoning, so we won’t play with you anymore."

After speaking, Ji Hui no longer paid attention to Bai Yiyi and left the volcano’s crater with Hua Yunfei and other Ji family elders.

Watching their figures gradually disappear, Bai Yiyi suddenly collapsed to the ground.

"Ah... Gu Sheng, oh Gu Sheng, how could you just die like this?"

Bai Yiyi sighed deeply.

"Let’s go back and plan at length."

Bai Yiyi said in a low voice.

And just then, the once-gray sky suddenly cleared up.

Bai Yiyi looked up and saw that the people brought by the Holy Master of the Ji family and the Shaking Light Saint had already withdrawn completely.

Soon, the Peacock King and the Green Dragon King also broke off from their fight and flew to Bai Yiyi and the others.

"Bai Yiyi, Ji Hui just reported, Gu Sheng is dead, is it true?"

The Peacock King asked urgently.

Bai Yiyi nodded: "Mm, Ji Hui said Gu Shengbei was burned to death."

After saying that, Ji Hui pointed to the position at the volcanic entrance.

"What! The Fire Domain?"

The Peacock King was instantly stunned.

This great figure of the Demon Clan knew that it was the Fire Domain there, generally only powerful cultivators could enter for Artifact Refining.

The Peacock King and the Green Dragon King exchanged a glance, and a worried look appeared in both of their eyes.

"Green Dragon King, can you enter a few layers of the Fire Domain?"

The Peacock King asked the Green Dragon King beside him.

The Green Dragon King shook his head, looking troubled.

"I’m of the water element magic, which is counteracted by the Fire Domain, and I fear I can’t even enter one layer."

"Ugh..."

The Peacock King nodded with a furrowed brow.

He knew the power of the Fire Domain, and the flames there were undoubtedly a huge test for cultivators like them.

"With my skills, I might be able to enter the third layer, but even for me, I can’t guarantee to come out unscathed from the third layer of the Fire Domain."

The Peacock King said worriedly.

"Can you take me in to take a look?"

Bai Yiyi asked with a face full of hope.

The Peacock King shook his head: "I can’t."

"Why not?"

Bai Yiyi asked unwillingly.

"The situation inside is unclear, if by any chance..."

The Peacock King didn’t finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he meant.

"It’s okay, I don’t care."

Bai Yiyi replied directly.

"Sigh... I guess I’ll go take a look myself."

Having said that, the Peacock King stopped hesitating.

His figure transformed into a streak of light, entering the Fire Domain alone.

His speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the second layer of the Fire Domain.

In the second layer, the Peacock King felt the intense heat of the surrounding flames.

Luckily, his demonic power was abundant, and even the second layer couldn’t do much to him.

"Phew... Gu Sheng, why did you come here?"

The Peacock King took a deep breath, appearing somewhat speechless.

Then, the Peacock King arrived at the entrance of the third layer, preparing to explore further.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"

However, just as he was about to enter the third layer, that electric-like force struck again.

"Oh dear... this... damn it..."

The Peacock King focused his eyes and discovered the Barrier set by Ji Hui.

This Barrier emitted a silver glow, sealing the entrance to the third layer tightly.

Subsequently, the Peacock King gathered his demonic power, attempting to dismantle this Barrier.

"Boom!"

A rumbling sound came, but the Barrier remained unmoved.

"This..."

The Peacock King felt somewhat helpless and attempted once more to use demonic power to break it.

But the situation was the same; he could not dissolve it.

Subsequently, the Peacock King tried several more times but still failed.

Meanwhile, the flames from the second layer were becoming unbearable.

Seeing those raging flames, the Peacock King was basically certain that this Barrier could not be solved in a short time.

At the same time, he could also be sure that Gu Sheng must be within the third layer.

In desperation, the Peacock King gathered demonic power, condensing his Divine Sense into a single strand.

"Swish!"

The Peacock King’s Divine Sense forcibly penetrated the Barrier, entering the third layer of the Fire Domain.

At this moment, his Divine Sense floated stealthily like a ghost.

For some reason, the Purple Fire in the third layer seemed to sense the Divine Sense.

Once the Peacock King’s Divine Sense entered the third layer, the Purple Fire instantly surrounded it, leaving him quite helpless.

When the Peacock King tried to control his Divine Sense to explore further, he found his power severely limited.

"This..."

The Peacock King was quite helpless.

He exhausted all his strength to barely break free from the Purple Fire’s restraints.

But those Purple Fires seemed relentless, still chasing the Peacock King, as if intending to burn his Divine Sense to death.

Just like that, the Peacock King’s Divine Sense drifted around, with the Purple Fire chasing after.

Suddenly, the Peacock King’s Divine Sense found Gu Sheng, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation.

He saw a faint light emanating from Gu Sheng’s body.

That light seemed like a protective shield, enveloping his body.

When the Peacock King’s Divine Sense got closer, he noticed something about Gu Sheng’s expression.

But from his experience, Gu Sheng was not injured, not even the surrounding Purple Fire seemed to harm him!

Joy filled the Peacock King’s heart; he hadn’t expected that Gu Sheng was still alive.

"Boom boom boom!"

Suddenly, a large amount of Purple Fire rushed toward the Peacock King’s Divine Sense.

The Peacock King fought valiantly, but discovered his power being consumed by the Purple Fire.

If his Divine Sense got trapped in the third layer, his body roasting in the second layer...

At this rate, he might end up body and spirit destroyed.

Helplessly, he swiftly withdrew his Divine Sense from the third layer, returning to his body.

The Peacock King’s face showed a hint of relief, "Gu Sheng, you’re still alive, I wasn’t wrong about you!"

After saying this to himself, the Peacock King immediately exited the Fire Domain, returning to the mouth of the volcano.

"Peacock King, how is Gu Sheng?"

Bai Yiyi hurriedly asked upon seeing the Peacock King coming out of the Fire Domain.

The Peacock King showed a faint smile.

"Rest assured, Bai Yiyi, Gu Sheng is still alive."

"Really?"

Bai Yiyi’s face instantly changed from worry to joy.

She widened her eyes in disbelief.

"Is... is it true? Is he really still alive?"

Bai Yiyi asked again.

"Yes, I guarantee it on my name!"

The Peacock King nodded.

"This seems kind of impossible, right? Which layer is Gu Sheng in?"

The Green Dragon King asked puzzledly from the side.

"The third layer."

The Peacock King replied.

"But that’s not right, I’ve heard other cultivators say only powerful figures can reach the second layer of the Fire Domain, the third layer is very difficult, how is he unscathed in the third layer?"

The Green Dragon King continued to ask.

"Yes, indeed, the Purple Fire in the third layer of the Fire Domain is extremely fierce, but Gu Sheng seems uninjured, and even the Purple Fire seems unable to harm him."

The Peacock King responded with a furrowed brow as well.

"Then why doesn’t he come out? It’s safe outside now, didn’t you tell him?"

Bai Yiyi asked nervously.
