Chapter 1789 - Hell Suppression Tripod
Tianhuang Mainland, North Region, Ping Yang Town.
The Martial Dao Prime Body stood in the courtyard and looked at the firmaments. His gaze was cold and he was filled with a chilling killing intent!
The atmosphere in the courtyard turned extremely tense!
Tao Yao frowned slightly at the side, worried.
He had accompanied the Martial Dao Prime Body for many years but had never seen the latter reveal such a gaze and emit such a terrifying aura!
Even in the battle against the primordial races and Blood Fiend back then, the Martial Dao Prime Body remained calm.
But now, something major must have happened for the Martial Dao Prime Body to reveal such a gaze!
"Young Master, did something happen?"
Tao Yao could not help but ask.
The Martial Dao Prime Body was silent and shook his head gently without explaining.
Although he could not see the situation in the starry skies, he could still sense the calamity that the Dragon Phoenix True Body encountered clearly.
A moment later, the Martial Dao Prime Body appeared in the depths of the firmaments in a flash.
Outside Tianhuang Mainland, a gigantic ball of flames was descending. It was filled with blood qi and had a terrifying might!
The gigantic ball of flames was the Dragon Phoenix True Body that was destroyed by King Yun You!
Although the lifeforce of the Dragon Phoenix True Body was destroyed by King Yun You, the bloodline that flowed through his body still possessed immense power!
The Martial Dao Prime Body extended his palm and condensed a space to receive the Dragon Phoenix True Body.
Immediately after, he tore through the void and returned to Ping Yang Town.
"W-What is this?"
Tao Yao asked in surprise when he saw the Martial Dao Prime Body return with a battered item soaked in blood.
The Dragon Phoenix True Body's lifeforce had long been shattered by King Yun You's palm and was in an unrecognizable state—even his skeleton could not be seen.
"This is the Dragon Phoenix True Body that I cultivated. It was destroyed by someone,"
The Martial Dao Prime Body said slowly.
"Ah!"
Tao Yao exclaimed in shock!
"What about your Green Lotus True Body? Is it alright?"
Tao Yao was smart and immediately recognized that Su Zimo's two true bodies must have encountered a calamity after they ascended to the upper world.
"I don't know,"
The Martial Dao Prime Body shook his head.
When he caught the Dragon Phoenix True Body earlier on, there was still a faint connection between him and the Green Lotus True Body.
However, right now, the Martial Dao Prime Body could no longer sense the existence of the Green Lotus True Body!
That was because at that moment, the Green Lotus True Body was devoured by the black hole along with the Bronze Square Tripod and was completely isolated from the outside world!
The Martial Dao Prime Body took a deep breath and regained his composure.
No matter what happened to the Green Lotus True Body, the only thing he could do right now was to wait patiently and continue cultivating!
Thankfully, for some reason, the Martial Dao Prime Body did not choose to ascend and stayed on Tianhuang Mainland.
Otherwise, the Martial Dao Prime Body would have been doomed as well!
The Martial Dao Prime Body pondered for a moment and his spirit consciousness moved, retrieving Heavenly Wolf that was burned by the three flames from his storage bag.
After the Martial Dao Prime Body comprehended the Tribulation Fire, he combined it with the Martial Spirit Fire and Red Lotus Karmic Fire to burn Heavenly Wolf.
This was the drop of blood in the silver mask!
"What's the origin of that Bronze Tripod and what treasure is it?"
The Martial Dao Prime Body asked.
"I don't know!"
Heavenly Wolf shouted in pain, "I already lost my memories when I woke up. I only know that it's called the Hell Suppression Tripod. Apart from that, I've forgotten everything! It's useless even if you burn me!"
The Martial Dao Prime Body sneered.
It was clear that Heavenly Wolf was dishonest.
If what he said was true and he had already lost his memories, why would he impart the Three Corpses Technique to Dao Lord Blood Fiend?
The Three Corpses Technique was a top-tier cloning technique of the fiend sects. If Heavenly Wolf could remember such a secret skill clearly, how could he forget the origin of the Bronze Square Tripod?
The Martial Dao Prime Body had a cold gaze and glared at Heavenly Wolf in the flaming prison in silence.
Although Heavenly Wolf jumped and shrieked repeatedly from the three flames, he could still hold it in and refused to say anything.
The three flames could only threaten Heavenly Wolf. They were not enough to refine the latter completely.
The Martial Dao Prime Body ignored him and threw him into his storage bag.
"Tao Yao, I'm prepared to enter seclusion. I'll leave this place to you,"
The Martial Dao Prime Body turned and said softly to Tao Yao.
"Don't worry, young master. I'll definitely protect Ping Yang Town and you."
Tao Yao said hurriedly with worry in his eyes.
After a brief pause, he asked, "Young Master, are you alright?"
Tao Yao knew the origin of the Dragon Phoenix True Body and knew what this body meant to Su Zimo.
That was the reason why he was worried that Su Zimo would not be able to withstand the blow.
If he were to cultivate in seclusion under such circumstances, it would be extremely easy for him to develop mental demons or even go berserk!
"I'm fine,"
The Martial Dao Prime Body smiled faintly.
Although the Dragon Phoenix True Body was destroyed, it was not gone.
In this seclusion, the Martial Dao Prime Body was prepared to fuse the Dragon Phoenix True Body into this body!
It might be extremely difficult for the Green Lotus True Body to fuse with the Dragon Phoenix True Body.
However, it was relatively simple for the Martial Dao Prime Body to smelt the Dragon Phoenix True Body.
The Martial Dao Prime Body brought the Dragon Phoenix True Body back to the cultivation field set up by Die Yue and channeled his blood qi slowly.
In the blink of an eye, the Martial Dao Prime Body vanished.
In his place was a gigantic furnace burning with raging flames!
There were three types of flames burning around the furnace alone!
The body of the Martial Dao Prime Body was like a gigantic furnace that could smelt a hundred sutras, divine powers and even flesh!
The Martial Dao Prime Body threw the Dragon Phoenix True Body into the furnace and began refining.
If he could refine the Dragon Phoenix True Body completely, the Martial Dao Prime Body might be able to master another flame!
…
The black hole.
Su Zimo had been floating here for a long time, curled up in the Bronze Square Tripod as he frowned with a pale expression.
Although he could hide in the Bronze Square Tripod and not be devoured by the power of the black hole, he could not sense the passage of time here.
There was no sound in the surroundings.
A maddening sense of loneliness surged into his heart.
His surroundings were dark, as though he was the only one left in the darkness, wandering aimlessly without an end.
The Bronze Square Tripod could only isolate physical power.
However, the invisible power within the black hole was affecting Su Zimo at all times!
Initially, Su Zimo could still calm down and comprehend the Prajna Nirvana Sutra.
However, as time passed by, he felt increasingly frustrated.
To be precise, he did not know how much time had passed!
A month? A year? Ten years?
If he could sense the passage of time, Su Zimo would feel much better. However, the emptiness, loneliness and helplessness tortured him constantly!
This was even more terrifying than any other power!
He could only wait alone in this cramped space.
His connection with the Martial Dao Prime Body had been completely severed!
Su Zimo shouted from the Bronze Square Tripod but there was no response, leaving only his echo that gradually weakened in the tripod.
His spirit consciousness tried to probe the outside world through the Nine Heavens Living Soil.
However, his spirit consciousness was devoured by the power of the black hole the moment it left the Bronze Square Tripod.
Just like that, he floated.
After a long time, Su Zimo's spirit was almost at the brink of collapse.
Actually, Su Zimo was within the Bronze Square Tripod and could not see what was happening outside.
The black hole wasn't completely devoid of light.
The outer wall of the Bronze Square Tripod was the only light in the black hole!
