Chapter 120: The Strongest True Flame Palm

  Eight divine transcendence cultivators occupied nearly half of the fan, with their innate true flames connecting to form an airtight firewall. Endless high temperatures surged out, and no matter how the black creatures charged, they remained unmoving.

  The day after tomorrow, the disciples will make a concerted effort to assist. At this moment of crisis, only by working together can we overcome the difficulties.

  The black creatures, unable to break through the divine cultivator's defenses, exploded one after another, turning into a vast expanse of toxic liquid that seemed to seep into every pore, even splashing down from the air towards the crowd. This poison was so potent that even a single drop would be impossible to withstand.

  For a moment, everyone's pressure increased, and even the faces of the divine transcendence cultivators became much more solemn than before.

  More and more black creatures swarmed in, like thousands of troops and horses, and it was unknown where these ghosts came from, and they were simply killed without end.

  Suddenly, a black and ferocious shadow flashed across the dark fog in the sky, flapping its huge wings, rushing towards the place where the disciples were most densely gathered.

  Everyone's face changed greatly, and they never expected that there would be danger in the sky as well.

  That dark shadow and the black creature on the ground were indistinguishable, except for a pair of black wings that made it much faster. It was about to charge into the midst of the disciples, its massive body already beginning to swell, and as soon as it self-destructed, it would have an extremely large killing range.

  Whoa! At the critical moment, a huge True Fire Palm was launched again, burning the flying black creature into a fireball, and with a loud bang, it fell to the ground, instantly turning into a cloud of ash.

  Dozens of disciples beside him turned pale, their eyes turning to Xia Chen not far away, with infinite gratitude. If it weren't for Xia Chen, they might not even be able to keep their lives intact.

  The cultivators of the Divine Path were also shocked to look over here, that flying black creature appeared too suddenly, if it wasn't for Xia Chen's timely action, the consequences would be unthinkable.

  These black creatures are extremely toxic, and the several disciples who were poisoned earlier have yet to recover, with some even falling into a coma. Even after taking the antidote pills, it's only a temporary relief.

  Whoosh! In the blink of an eye, dozens of black creatures flew out of the dark fog and dived towards the crowd. The sky was instantly filled with a layer of massive, oppressive bodies.

  The disciples' faces turned pale, and it wasn't just the ground that was under attack, but also the sky had so many black creatures, how could they resist?

  Xia Chen's face was solemn, and his True Fire Palm struck out one after another, turning these flying black creatures into ashes in an instant. Within a ten-zhang radius around him, a vacuum zone suddenly appeared, and no other disciple could achieve this level of mastery.

  However, swarms of black creatures kept emerging, densely packed, and many of the black creatures began to self-destruct after appearing, turning into a black toxic rain that fell from the sky.

  Although the True Flame Palm is extremely powerful, its area of effect is limited and can only protect a small space from being disturbed.

  Damn it... Xia Chen's heart was burning with anxiety. He had already pushed his true energy to the limit, but apart from passive defense, he had no other way out.

  "Ah!" "Ah!"

  The field was filled with the sound of miserable cries, which were the disciples who had been splashed with the toxic liquid. As soon as a single drop came into contact with them, they immediately began to fester and lose their combat strength. If they didn't receive an antidote immediately, their lives would be in danger.

  Mrs. Sang and Jiao Yunfei had to retreat from the battlefield, constantly passing through the crowd of disciples, handing out antidotes, using their innate true energy to expel the poison from the poisoned disciples.

  Only eight divine transcendence cultivators were left, two less than before, and the range of their attack was greatly reduced. The black creatures on land seemed endless, constantly emerging from the dark fog, putting immense pressure on the remaining divine transcendence cultivators as well.

  Among the crowd of disciples, chaos gradually began to erupt. Except for the post-heavenly nine-level disciples of each sect who could barely protect themselves, almost everyone else was in danger.

  Many disciples came directly to Xia Chen for shelter, and there was no place to hide in the field. Only by surrounding Xia Chen did they seem to have a thread of safe space.

  It was just that the Donghua Sect disciples hesitated for a moment before rushing towards Xia Chen, after all, their lives were more important than their previous conflicts.

  Xia Chen smiled bitterly, he wouldn't refuse, but who has the ability to protect so many people.

  Suddenly, he had an epiphany. The shape of the Tongtian Palm Technique changed with the flow of true energy and intent. If everyone worked together, it might be possible to increase the area of the True Fire Palm without reducing its power. Of course, this would have to be tested to know for sure.

  Xia Chen shouted loudly: "You guys channel your true energy into me, let's join forces and see if we can withstand this poisonous rain."

  Chen Qiushui reacted the fastest and immediately placed her slender hand on Xia Chen's back, saying: "Junior brother, I'll lend you a helping hand."

  Others also reacted quickly and rushed over, almost a dozen palms pressed against Xiaochun's chest and back at the same time, sticking him tightly.

  The other disciples couldn't get close, so they placed their palms on the back of the disciple in front of them and transmitted all their true energy over.

  In the blink of an eye, more than 80 disciples' true energy was stacked together and transported into Xia Chen's body.

  Xia Chen's face suddenly turned bright red, the power of so many younger disciples made him feel like he was about to burst, his body didn't even seem to belong to him, his true energy was intense, just like a scorching sun rapidly rising inside his body, it was unbearable!

  "True Flame Palm!" Xia Chen's tongue burst forth like a spring thunderclap, his deafening roar causing even the black creatures dancing in the sky to pause momentarily.

  Whoa! A True Flame Palm shot out from Xia Chen's hand, this True Flame Palm was only of normal size, but it shone as brightly as the scorching sun, to the point where even the Primordial True Flame would pale in comparison. The entire small plaza within a hundred feet around him became as bright as daytime.

  The true flame palm rapidly expanded, almost in the blink of an eye, and transformed into a tens of meters long and wide raging sea of fire that seemed to erupt from the sky. From above, the small square was no longer visible, only the roaring flames surging upwards could be seen, like a volcanic eruption with unparalleled impact force.

  Hundreds of flying black creatures didn't even have time to let out a scream before being engulfed by the endless flames, instantly turning into ashes.

  The flame giant palm emitted a strong and tearing sound, the remaining momentum did not diminish in the slightest. The scorching flames surged into the black fog, sweeping away the thick fog for dozens of feet until the thin starry sky could be seen, only then slowly weakening and extinguishing.

  The black creatures on the ground were one of them, they seemed to be extremely fearful of the terrifying true fire palm, and after emitting a frightened hiss in unison, they suddenly retreated into the dark fog like a tide, and actually stopped attacking.

  The small square was quiet, and the disciples looked up at the sky where the remaining sparks had not been completely extinguished, their eyes wide with shock. Even a few divine cultivators were stunned speechless.

  I've seen acquired true fire before, but I've never seen such a powerful acquired true fire!

  Xia Chen was also a bit stunned, he had thought that the combined efforts of everyone might enhance the power of the acquired True Flame, but he hadn't expected it to be enhanced to this extent, that one palm earlier was simply fantastical.

  "Wow..." After a long pause, the excited cheers of the disciples burst out like a fire, and everyone's face was filled with excitement and thrill.

  This palm not only eliminated the terrifyingly toxic creature, but also served as a strong stimulant, reinvigorating the disciples' already lukewarm hearts and replacing their despair with unprecedented excitement.

  The cultivators of the Divine Path also breathed a sigh of relief, and their gaze towards Xia Chen couldn't help but carry a hint of admiration. If not for this palm, who knows what kind of chaos would have ensued.

  The dark fog gathered silently, filling the space that was consumed by the true fire. The surroundings became quiet again, but there were no more poisonous zombies or black creatures appearing, as if the scene just before had never existed.

  The four major sects had about twenty or so disciples poisoned and injured, but fortunately no one died. After taking the antidote pill, they were forced out of the toxic air by the strong Xiantian Gang Qi of the Shentong cultivators and began to recover.

  Xia Chen also generously took out the antidote from the treasure basin, anyway, there was plenty of it, and it's better to use it to send a favor. Of course, he couldn't take too much, otherwise, it would attract attention and not be worth it.

  The disciples were deeply moved by Xia Chen, and even the Donghua Sect's disciples completely changed their impression of him. They all thought that this talented disciple had such a high cultivation level, yet was still so kind-hearted, and couldn't help but feel deeply ashamed...

  It was already apparent that Xia Chen had become the most promising disciple of the four factions, and his reputation even surpassed that of Xie Tianfeng, Yang Qianyu, and Chen Qiushui. As for Chen Qiushui, it goes without saying; Xie Tianfeng and Yang Qianyu frequently showed kindness to Xia Chen, treating him as an equal.

  Of course, there were also some people who gritted their teeth in anger, such as Sun Huawei, who had just come to his senses, and Fang Ziqing, Yu Xiulian, etc. Seeing Xia Chen's rise to power, they couldn't help but secretly curse him, "Why didn't this bastard get killed by the poisonous zombie?"

  With a brief pause, the eight divine transcendence cultivators gathered together again to discuss their plan.

  "It's possible that there will be another attack soon, we must break this seal as soon as possible." said Fan Yun.

  "Not bad, as long as we can get out of here, it will be much easier." Xuan Lingzi said in a low voice.

  Other cultivators of the Mystic Realm nodded in agreement, as long as they were within the seal, they would always be on the defensive. Who knows when these black creatures might launch a large-scale attack again, and who knows if even more powerful poisonous creatures might appear, which would be even more troublesome.

  Moreover, the mastermind behind this ban has never appeared. Such a powerful enemy is like a huge boulder that weighs heavily on everyone's mind.

  "Brother, just now we were blocked by the poisonous corpse puppet. You didn't use the Innate Opening Eyes Great Method. Why not try it out now? As long as we find the source of the restriction, we can forcefully break through and escape." Fan Yun suddenly said.

  "Alright! Sang Shimei, you add the innate sense for me, I'll go find the source of the seal." Zhan Li's eyes flashed with a golden light, revealing an intense piercing aura that seemed to see through all deception and concealment.

  Mrs. Sang nodded and stretched out her palm on his back, pulling out a long, innate sensing light line that was exactly the same as the one used by Jin's big move earlier.

  The golden light in Zhan Li's eyes grew stronger and stronger, shooting out two straight beams of light before his body moved and he disappeared into the black fog.
