2122 Flame Stabilizer Pillar, Ou Chen's Madness, One More Step

Ou Yenuo continued to forge the Hongmeng Supreme Treasure on the Blazing Flame Volcano.

He was reaching the end of the process, and the Supreme Treasure had taken the general shape of a sword.

The sword was white, and its body resembled a translucent jade. It had mystical runes carved on it and multiple streams of Hongmeng spiritual qi surrounding it.

Although incomplete, it already emanated an astonishing energy.

"It seems like Ou Yenuo is really going to forge the Hongmeng Supreme Treasure! The title of the strongest weaponsmith is going to someone else!"

"Ou Yenuo is making a comeback!"

"Interesting…"

The other weaponsmiths watched with full concentration.

Ou Yenuo, too, was thrilled as his forging reached the final step.

"This is great! The solution I came up with is correct!"

It even caught Ming Fei's attention.

'"It's amazing that you can forge a Hongmeng Supreme Treasure. Chu Kuangren, you seem to be in luck for getting such a good weaponsmith."

"I'm always lucky," Chu Kuangren said as he opened his eyes.

He could sense that the sword was near completion, so he exited his cultivation state.

"One more quenching, and it will be complete!" Ou Yenuo said excitedly.

He performed a set of hand seals to siphon the Blazing Flame from the volcano.

However, for some reason, he could not move the Blazing Flame in the volcano, as if something was stopping him.

"That's the…"

Ou Yenuo looked into the volcano.

Deep in the volcano, countless restriction seals appeared around the walls and suppressed the flames, preventing him from drawing the energy.

In the center of the lava pool was a black pillar. It had runes carved on it that glowed mystically.

"That's the Flame Stabilizer Pillar!" 

Ou Yenuo was shocked to see the pillar. "Why would the Flame Stabilizer Pillar be here in the Blazing Flame Volcano? Who put it there?"

Everyone sensed that something was amiss.

Therefore, they sent their Immortal Consciousnesses to the volcano to have a look.

When they saw the Flame Stabilizer Pillar, they were enraged as well.

"Who the hell put the Flame Stabilizer Pillar there?"

"The Flame Stabilizer is used to suppress all the flames in the universe. Who would put such a thing there?" 

The Blazing Flame Volcano was the core of the Myriad Arms City.

Countless weaponsmiths relied on the flame from the volcano to forge weapons.

If the flames were suppressed, how could they continue their forging?

"The Flame Stabilizer Pillar is quite an exclusive item. Only a few in the city are strong enough to forge such a thing, and fewer can sneak the pillar into the volcano without being noticed."

"Who would it be?"

"Wait a minute. Could it be…"

Someone had a wild guess.

The Flame Stabilizer Pillar must have been in the volcano for a while, but it had not been activated. That was why no one noticed its presence.

Now, it was suddenly activated.

Why?

It was likely that the pillar was activated to stop Ou Yenuo's forging.

Who would do such a thing?"

"It's Ou Chen!" Ou Yenuo said grimly.

The other weaponsmiths started to search for Ou Chen, but the man was nowhere to be found, and it verified their thoughts.

"There's no way he would miss Ou Yenuo forging a Hongmeng Supreme Treasure. He must be in some secret place controlling the Flame Stabilizer Pillar."

"What a despicable b*stard!"

"He secretly put the pillar in the volcano. Why? He's seizing the lifeline of the Myriad Arms City!"

"He's ambitious!"

The weaponsmiths were furious, but the most anxious and angry one would be Ou Yenuo. The Hongmeng Supreme Treasure was one step away from completion, and all it was missing was the quenching process.

However, the Flame Stabilizer Pillar stopped him.

Would he fail again this time?

Ou Yenuo was aggrieved.

"Hmph. It's just a pillar. How bad could it be?" Ming Fei grunted.

She raised her hand, channeling the Radiant energy into a white spear before she tossed it at the Flame Stabilizer Pillar.

The spear soared and crushed through layers of restriction seals.

It struck the pillar with a bang.

The flames rumbled, and the scorching heat was difficult to bear.

When the pillar was struck, it started to crack.

Ou Yenuo was shocked to see the crack on the pillar.

The Flame Stabilizer Pillar was a Premium Chaos Supreme Treasure, and breaking it was not easy.

However, Ming Fei managed to damage it greatly with just one strike. 

She was indeed powerful.

"Oh, it's quite sturdy," Ming Fei said coldly. She, too, was slightly surprised by the integrity of the pillar.

With that, she raised her hand and channeled a stronger Radiant energy.

Back in Myriad Arms City, there was a room filled with restriction seals, and inside was Ou Chen, controlling the Flame Stabilizer Pillar remotely.

Blood spewed from his mouth when the pillar was struck. He was shocked. 

"The Radiant Right Sky King is indeed powerful."

He knew the Flame Stabilizer Pillar would not last another hit.

A hint of viciousness appeared in his eyes.

"If that's the case, let's die together."

He performed a hand seal and controlled the Flame Stabilizer Pillar to spin rapidly.

"Huh? What the…"

Before Ming Fei could attack, the Flame Stabilizer released a boundless surge of energy before exploding into countless pieces.

The explosion shook the entire volcano, and the quakes spread down to Myriad Arms City.

"Damn it! That b*stard detonated the Flame Stabilizer Pillar, and the blast hit the nodes of the Myriad Arms City. The volcano is erupting!" 

Ou Yenuo was shocked.

As soon as he said that, a blast of Blazing Flame burst out from other underground nodes and burned the air.

The entire city was engulfed in flames!

Many weaponsmiths were caught by the flames and burned to ashes.

The Myriad Arms City was turned into a living hell!

"Ou Chen, you lunatic!"

"He's destroying the city just because he wants to stop Ou Yenuo!"

"Damn it! That piece of sh*t! He's unworthy of being a weaponsmith! To think I used to respect him a lot!"

The other weaponsmiths felt indignant at injustice. 

They resented Ou Chen as much as they respected him before.

Somewhere in a corner, Ou Chen looked at the underground nodes he destroyed with the blast. He did not care about the city, and the grin on his face was proof.

"Ou Yenuo, with the underground nodes destroyed and the flames gone, how are you going to complete the Hongmeng Supreme Treasure now?" Ou Chen grinned viciously.

Back at the volcano, the lava inside the volcano rapidly hardened, and the flames were extinguished.

Disappointed, Ou Yenuo knelt on the ground.

"It's over. It can't be finished now. Just one step… I'm one step away from completing it!"

Ou Yenuo felt despair first before anger took over. He widened his bloodshot eyes and roared, "Ou Chen, you b*stard! I'll kill you!"

He knew Ou Chen must have timed the explosion.

The same thing happened many years ago. Ou Yenuo was one step away from completing, and the process was sabotaged.

The repetition of history made him feel aggrieved.

He wished he could rip Ou Chen into pieces with his bare hands.

"Too bad."

Ming Fei looked at the incomplete Hongmeng Supreme Treasure floating in the air and felt bad for it as well.

Then, she looked at Chu Kuangren.

The Supreme Treasure belongs to him, so failing at the last step must devastate him.
