Chapter 848: Chapter 448: Failed Crossing
This whole process felt as easy and effortless as walking or drinking water.
However, just as he thought victory was within his grasp, the seemingly insignificant fireball suddenly expanded, transforming into a sycamore seed-sized fireball, shooting straight toward Ji Changkong.
"Hmm?"
Ji Changkong’s expression changed as he hurriedly activated his True Qi, trying to withstand these fireballs.
Yet, the fireballs, like maggots on a bone, entered Ji Changkong’s body and quickly spread like a fish in water.
"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!"
The power of the fireballs erupted rapidly, expanding even more fiercely.
In an instant, the True Qi inside Ji Changkong surged, and he screamed in pain.
"This... how is this possible?"
Ji Changkong looked at his burning body in disbelief and terror.
"This is the Five Elements True Fire obtained in the Fire Domain. How does it feel?"
Gu Sheng said coldly.
"Five Elements True Fire, you have actually mastered the Five Elements True Fire!"
Ji Changkong exclaimed.
Gu Sheng coldly watched Ji Changkong, a smirk forming on his lips as he said, "Who do you think you are to act arrogantly in front of me? Today, I’ll show you what true fire mastery is!"
As Gu Sheng’s words fell, the burning fireballs grew even fiercer.
"Elder!"
Ji Hui and other cultivators of the Ji family rushed forward upon seeing the scene, attempting to extinguish the flames on Ji Changkong.
But the Five Elements True Fire was fundamentally different from ordinary flames.
Moreover, the fire was burning from inside Ji Changkong’s body, making it a pipe dream to extinguish it!
Soon, Ji Changkong’s skin was charred black, and his body twisted in agony.
Yet, as the Supreme Elder of the Ji family, he continued to defend a certain belief with his life.
Ji Hui and the Ji family cultivators watched him helplessly, their hearts filled with despair and helplessness.
"Elder, please hold on!"
Ji Hui’s voice trembled as she tried to use her strength to extinguish the fire.
However, the power of the Five Elements True Fire far exceeded anything they could have imagined.
In just a few seconds, Ji Changkong’s aura gradually weakened.
His body swayed in the flames as if it could be reduced to ashes at any moment.
"Elder, hang in there! We cannot give up!"
Ji Hui was almost in tears.
Because she knew that if they gave up now, there would be no possibility of Ji Changkong’s survival.
Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Ji Changkong.
It was Ji Wuji, another elder of the Ji family.
He held an ancient Longsword, with the blade glimmering faintly.
"Ji Hui, step back!"
Ji Wuji’s voice was deep and powerful.
His eyes were ablaze with fury, clearly at the peak of his anger.
"Whiz!"
Ji Wuji swung his sword.
Instantly, the Sword Qi rushed toward the Five Elements True Fire inside Ji Changkong.
Everyone present felt a chill, and some lightly dressed cultivators immediately surged with Divine Power to resist the cold.
Those with lower cultivation who were also lightly dressed could only endure it!
"Boom!"
There was a loud explosion as the cold Sword Qi clashed with the True Fire, instantly causing a massive Energy Fluctuation.
Ji Changkong’s body was jolted back a few steps, and the flames on him weakened slightly.
"Elder, are you alright?"
Ji Hui asked worriedly.
"I’m fine."
Ji Wuji panted, his face pale.
It was obvious that this strike had consumed a lot of his True Yuan.
"Boom boom boom!"
And just then, the Five Elements True Fire, which had just been slightly weakened, suddenly roared back to life.
"This..."
Ji Wuji was speechless.
"Elder, what should we do?"
Ji Hui asked anxiously, seeing the situation.
"This Five Elements True Fire seems to have absorbed my Sword Qi. We must find a way to restrain it."
Ji Wuji said tensely.
"Ah!!!"
Suddenly, Ji Changkong let out a miserable scream.
"Ji Hui, I will do everything I can to protect Elder Changkong. You must immediately notify the Family Head and have him gather all the Ji family cultivators to jointly research a solution."
Ji Wuji instructed loudly.
"Yes!"
Ji Hui nodded, left all the attendants, and immediately turned to leave.
Ji Wuji continued to guard Ji Changkong, using all his Divine Power to condense water into ice to reduce the temperature around Ji Changkong’s body.
However, the power of the Five Elements True Fire was too overwhelming.
Even now, with Ji Wuji giving it his all, it was difficult to completely suppress it.
Gradually, Ji Changkong’s body grew thinner in the flames, and his aura became increasingly faint.
Just when everyone believed that Ji Changkong was about to meet his end, he suddenly raised his hand with difficulty, pointing to the sky as if he wanted to say something.
"Elder, what are you doing?"
Ji Wuji asked in surprise.
"Void... a kind of power from the Void."
Ji Changkong’s voice was so weak it was almost inaudible.
"Crack!"
At that moment, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky.
A silver light shot from it, heading straight for Ji Changkong.
When the light touched Ji Changkong’s body, it instantly had a wonderful reaction with the Five Elements True Fire.
"Elder!"
Ji Wuji and other attendants of the Ji family exclaimed simultaneously.
The Five Elements True Fire actually started to gradually weaken...
Gu Sheng was momentarily stunned when he saw this.
He glanced at the crack in the sky, subconsciously thinking, "Could it be that Ji Changkong isn’t meant to die?"
While Gu Sheng was in a daze, the Domain Gateway for Crossing the Void suddenly absorbed the descending silver light.
Immediately, the Domain Gateway for Crossing the Void opened.
A powerful suction force came from inside the gateway.
"The gateway is open! Everyone, cross the Void quickly!"
Someone among the waiting cultivators shouted.
Suddenly, hundreds of people swarmed towards it.
Ji Wuji watched, somewhat dazed, then glanced at Gu Sheng.
