Chapter 142: Chapter 142 My Skyfire

Splitting the heavens and earth?

Upon hearing Ye Fei’s words, Gui Xuzi instantly displayed a disdainful smile.

Just as Su Miaoling knew, the previous Innate Martial King who dared to offend Gui Xuzi could only beg for mercy under the might of Gui Xuzi’s Skyfire!

Even though Ye Fei was able to suppress Shangguan Jingyun, showing a power greater than an ordinary Innate Martial King,

in Gui Xuzi’s eyes, he was at best capable of enduring the force of the Skyfire head-on.

When the time came, even if Ye Fei wasn’t burned to death, he would certainly suffer grave injuries.

A heavily injured Ye Fei? As the True Spirit Dharma King, with so many True Essence Sect Elders at his side, how could Gui Xuzi lack the confidence to capture him?

Meanwhile, the other elders burst into mocking laughter.

"Boy, your fate has already been sealed, so stop struggling in vain!"

"Hah, splitting the heavens and earth? Utterly delusional! In this domain ruled by Skyfire, the Sect Leader represents the heavens and earth! No matter how strong you are, can you possibly contend with the cosmos?"

"Surrender! You’re completely out of options—defeat and destruction await you!"

Hearing the elders’ words, even Su Miaoling nodded, without the slightest belief that Ye Fei had any chance of victory at this moment.

But just then, Ye Fei suddenly let out a laugh and declared, "A bunch of frogs at the bottom of a well! Do you truly believe you understand how vast this heaven and earth are?"

"Vast? Hah! No matter how vast, it’s not something a mere child like you could fathom! Surrender—or die!"

With that, Gui Xuzi immediately began a flurry of spellcasting, summoning a torrent of spiritual energy from within, expelling four-fifths of it in a single breath. The Skyfire erupted fiercely, forming an enormous flame cauldron that encased Ye Fei within. It was as if Ye Fei had become the Sunx Monkey being roasted within the alchemy furnace of the legendary Grand Supreme Elder!

Hovering midair, with his robes and hair billowing as if possessed by a divine presence, Gui Xuzi appeared like a descending Fire God as he bellowed, "Ye Fei, surrender—or perish! Make your choice now!"

Thud!

The sheer force of Gui Xuzi’s presence, combined with his thunderous declaration, drove everyone except Ye Fei to their knees.

The True Essence Sect members gazed at him with reverence, as though staring at the embodiment of their faith.

As for the Hee Family siblings, they were utterly terrified—trembling uncontrollably on the ground, nearly passing out from dehydration, even though they weren’t caught within the Skyfire.

"Is this your full strength?" Ye Fei, standing within the flame cauldron, calmly asked, his eyes flashing with indifference.

"What? He still has the strength to speak?"

Gui Xuzi frowned deeply upon hearing this.

Four-fifths of his spiritual energy had been expended; this was already his strongest attack. Yet Ye Fei, standing within, seemed completely unscathed—was he pretending?

With this thought, Gui Xuzi immediately steeled his resolve.

"Boy, I know you’re at your limit. Even I have not fought at full strength for years. Since you wish to die, I shall send you on your way with everything I have!"

Gui Xuzi inhaled deeply.

In the next instant, flames erupted from his eyes, and all his remaining spiritual energy surged into the enormous flame cauldron.

At that moment, the already fearsome Skyfire roared even higher, leaping another three feet, embodying apocalyptic destruction as it completely engulfed Ye Fei from view.

"This time, it’s truly over!"

An elder quickly stepped forward to steady Gui Xuzi, whose form seemed faint, knowing well that Gui Xuzi was completely drained.

But the results were extraordinary!

A flame cauldron of such overwhelming power, forged by Skyfire—he had neither seen nor even heard of such a thing!

Standing before the flame cauldron, even he felt insignificant and powerless.

Surely, there was no chance Ye Fei could have survived.

Gui Xuzi smiled faintly, saying, "Indeed! It’s just a pity that someone of such talent, at such a young age, with such strength, could not be used by our True Essence Sect. What a loss!"

"Sect Leader, you’re mistaken!"

The elder immediately responded gravely, "Someone with such heart and power—he’s clearly the Demon King reincarnate! If we allowed him to grow unchecked, he would bring calamity to countless lives. Sect Leader, by eliminating him, you’ve done a great service to the world!"

"Hah! Well said!"

Gui Xuzi nodded slightly, then smiled: "Very well, then. Let’s head back and announce Ye Fei’s death to the world. Since he could not serve us, let his death instill even greater fear and reverence for our True Essence Sect!"

"Yes!"

The True Essence Sect elders, hearing this, lit up with joy and responded with grins of agreement.

"Demon descends upon the world!"

At that moment, a voice as chilling as the depths of hell exploded in everyone’s ears, shocking them to their core!

Before they could react, a black Sword Light streaked from the apex of the flame cauldron, slicing downward in slow, deliberate motion.

Boom!

The entire flame cauldron split cleanly in two under the Sword Light.

Even more astonishingly, the Skyfire that had been separated clung to the Sword Light for an instant before vanishing entirely.

As the Sword Light struck the ground, the previously towering flame cauldron, nearly ten meters high, disappeared without a trace.

All that remained was the scorched black earth, and at the center of that blackened land stood the figure of a young man—Ye Fei!

"How... how is this possible?"

Seeing Ye Fei emerge unscathed, the elder who had just spoken felt his heart nearly leap from his chest.

That had been Gui Xuzi’s full attack!

A True Spirit Dharma King using the entirety of his power—a display of magic akin to a divine miracle.

By all logic, Ye Fei should have been reduced to ashes within the flame cauldron. How was it possible he emerged unscathed, let alone destroyed it with a single strike?

Gui Xuzi was similarly overwhelmed with disbelief, his mouth agape as he struggled to accept the reality before him.

"You... how did you do this?" Gui Xuzi demanded, ignoring his empty reserves of spiritual energy, breathing heavily.

Ye Fei, his gaze icy, calmly replied, "I told you, you simply don’t understand what the heavens and earth truly mean."

"You..." Gui Xuzi’s beard bristled in rage at Ye Fei’s words.

But Ye Fei, unperturbed, continued, "Of course, I should thank you."

"Thank me? What do you mean?" Gui Xuzi asked, puzzled.

Suddenly, an unprecedented aura erupted from Ye Fei’s body, like a Primordial Giant Beast awakening, crashing down before Gui Xuzi and freezing him in place.

Ye Fei, smiling faintly, said, "Thank you for gathering all this spiritual energy and helping me condense my Golden Core! Now accept my gratitude—with this strike!"

As he spoke, crimson light erupted in Ye Fei’s hands, blazing flames forming that rushed toward Gui Xuzi and the True Essence Sect elders.

Gui Xuzi, stunned, stared at the flames in disbelief, muttering in shock, "These... these are my Skyfire?"
