Chapter 645: The Chaos Demon-Slaying Flame

“The Chaos Demon-Slaying Flame is well-known throughout the Immortal Realm, but that doesn’t mean it’s common. It’s because before the ninety spatial passages connecting to the Origin Demon Realm, there’s always a vast expanse of this flame burning continuously, effectively eliminating the Origin Demon energy that spreads from those passages.”
Lianyi spoke softly, “In the eyes of the immortals here, it’s a fearsome holy flame for slaying demons. Of course, besides eliminating demonic energy, it also possesses immense destructive power against the souls, primordial spirits, and essences of ordinary beings—something that can only be observed from afar, never touched.”
Su Che nodded and said, “So, it was this holy flame that stopped that demon princess from becoming curious and prevented her from exploring this forbidden area for countless years?”
“Probably,” Lianyi replied quietly. “Perhaps, besides the flame, there were other factors that made her even more fearful…”
Su Che then asked, “Do you have the ability to cross this area of flames?”
“Almost impossible!”
Lianyi shook her head without hesitation. “The damage inflicted by the Chaos Demon-Slaying Flame on the primordial spirit is too terrifying; there’s hardly any way to defend against it. One can only try to push through bravely. For immortals at the Heavenly Immortal level, if the depth of this flame zone doesn’t exceed a thousand zhang, there’s still some hope. But…”
Lianyi looked down. The flame zone below was bottomless—undoubtedly exceeding a thousand zhang, possibly tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of zhang.
Su Che glanced quickly at Lin Jiu and Guang Qi before asking telepathically, “At the Xuan Immortal level, how long can they hold out?”
“Theoretically, even with special immortal artifacts protecting their primordial spirits, they won’t be able to last more than ten thousand zhang. That’s the limit I estimate,” Lianyi replied telepathically. “Beyond that, their primordial spirits will be exhausted, leading to death.”
If the primordial spirit is exhausted, the remaining soul is even more vulnerable and will undoubtedly be completely destroyed by the black flames—marking an absolute end.
Su Che already had a clear idea and didn’t need to ask further.
Lao He said, “It seems unlikely these guys can break through this flame zone. In other words, their path forward is completely blocked. Unless, of course, you’re willing to help them, master.”
“I will help them. There’s no doubt about it,” Su Che replied without hesitation.

Of course, this doesn’t mean Su Che is some selfless do-gooder. After all, entering the Battlefield of Demons and Immortals requires at least ten people, so there must be a deeper reason for this arrangement. If he abandoned them out of selfishness, he would most likely end up in an awkward situation and completely lose this opportunity. That’s a very likely outcome! “They’re still useful,” Su Che thought with a smile. “But ten people are enough, right?” “Master, do you mean…” Old He suddenly understood and smiled darkly as well. “Yes, this opportunity is quite good.” At that moment, the nine Seal Demons were gathered together, discussing in hushed tones how they could overcome this obstacle. “It’s unlikely!” You Lin shook her head. “If this area of fire is only a few thousand zhang wide, we might just be able to make it through, but if it’s any wider, we’re doomed.” “Even if it’s only a few thousand zhang, forcing our way through would severely damage our spiritual cores, requiring decades—or even longer—to recover.” Guang Qi also looked troubled and said gravely, “Moreover, the depth of this fire region must be more than just a few thousand zhang. I guess it’s at least over a hundred thousand zhang…” “Forcing our way through definitely won’t work; we need to find another solution,” Lin Jiu said with a frown. “It would be best if there’s a way to bypass this fire region…” Though he said this, he himself knew that the possibility of bypassing it was almost non-existent. This forbidden area was extremely special—anytunneling techniques wouldn’t work; we could only proceed straight down this vertical passage. After all, if there were a clever way to avoid it, that golden-winged demon princess would have already explored this forbidden area thoroughly over the years, leaving no chance for us. After much thought, the nine Seal Demons still couldn’t come up with a solution. What should they do? Lin Jiu turned his gaze to Su Che and asked Guang Qi and You Lin in a gloomy tone, “What do you think? Could he have a solution?” “Logically speaking, if we can’t handle this situation, he certainly can’t either!” Guang Qi replied telepathically. “But he’s the key figure in this opportunity. Maybe he can do what others can’t. There must be a way, somehow. We have to admit that this kid can’t be judged by ordinary standards.” “Then…” Lin Jiu gave Guang Qi a glance, who immediately understood.

The two Demon Sealing Envoys transmitted orders to their respective left and right deputies. Next, the six Xuanxians moved simultaneously, descending slightly by over a hundred zhang before dispersing. Their positions formed a complex pattern—clearly a blocking formation.
Block the path!
The blocking formation formed by the six Xuanxians instantly sealed off the downward passage.
This vertically descending passage had a diameter of only a few hundred zhang. To deal with an ordinary man like Su Che, the six Xuanxians could easily block his way.
The intention was obvious: If we can’t get through, you won’t be able to either.
“They really did this.”
Lianyi had long guessed that Lin Jiu and the others would use such a method against Su Che. She transmitted a message to him: “From now on, even if you manage to find a way through the Fire Realm, they’ll force you to agree to certain conditions. If you refuse, they’ll keep this up indefinitely and never let you pass.”
Su Che nodded calmly, having also anticipated this situation in advance: “Then I’ll just agree to their terms. Why not?”
Huh?
Lianyi’s delicate brows trembled slightly as she couldn’t quite figure out Su Che’s mindset—why was he so calm in the face of threats?
Su Che smiled at her and said, “It’s definitely difficult to accomplish this alone, don’t you think?”
“Yes.”
Lianyi nodded. “I’ve always wanted to persuade you. There must be a deeper reason for ten people entering together. You don’t need to refuse others’ help too firmly… But I was worried you might misunderstand my intentions, so I never dared to say it outright. It’s great that you’ve figured it out on your own.”
“Don’t worry.”
Su Che tapped his own forehead. “I’m not that narrow-minded. It’s mainly to test some of my ideas and stimulate my potential at the same time.”
“I really can’t imagine how much more potential you have.”
Lianyi smiled faintly. “I can only predict that once you ascend to immortality, even as a lowest-level human immortal, you’ll be able to easily defeat us celestial immortals. Who knows? With just a wave of your hand, you might sweep away a large group.”
“You’re exaggerating.”
Su Che said modestly, “A large group is impossible, but three or five hundred might be doable.”
“Shut up!”
Lianyi gave him a light punch on the chest, her playful expression filled with endless charm.
“Great, you’ve finally learned to flirt with beautiful women.” Lao He, sitting with his legs crossed in the Immortal Prison, felt truly pleased at that moment.

In Ruiyi’s gaze toward Su Che, there was indeed much warmth, but given the current situation, she understood its seriousness better than anyone else. She didn’t show excessive tenderness and simply asked softly, “You still haven’t come up with a plan, have you?”
“Yes.”
Su Che understood what she was asking and replied truthfully, “I just have an intuition that I’m not too afraid of the Chaos Demon-Annihilating Flame. But how to safely pass through this fire realm still requires careful consideration.”
“Alright, then I won’t disturb you anymore. If you need any help, just let me know,” Ruiyi said gently.
Su Che responded with a nod, took out a Dao artifact, sat cross-legged on it, and began to meditate.
By “meditating,” he meant discussing strategies with Lao He in his mind. However, Lao He didn’t get straight to the point right away, his tone tinged with mockery, “Ruiyi is quite nice. Having such a sister as a lover must mean she’ll dote on you extremely… She’ll satisfy even your most excessive requests. It must be a wonderful feeling, master…”
“Mm.”
Unexpectedly, Su Che agreed quite readily this time, “So, I also hope she can gain more benefits from this opportunity.”
“Are you really planning to take her as your partner?” This time, Lao He was shocked.
“Shut up!”
Su Che replied indifferently, “She’s a pretty good friend. Wish her good luck.”
These words were not just a blessing. As a key figure in this opportunity, once Su Che recognized Ruiyi as a true friend, her fate would surely change.
Su Che sat down again. Everyone knew he was thinking of a good strategy to overcome this challenge.
The previous Wind Blade Formation could only hold Su Che back briefly but not the others; yet this Chaos Fire Realm challenged everyone equally.
Perhaps not everyone—there was still Meng Luo, whose abilities were hard to assess…
No one disturbed Su Che. Even Lin Jiu and the six others floated silently below, making it clear: If you won’t take us with you, we’ll stay here forever!
No one lacked patience!
Having lived for millions of years, patience was the least of their concerns.
Time passed slowly, and it was unclear how much time had gone by…
“Your idea is good, and it makes some sense.”
At that moment, Su Che said to Lao He in his mind, “But even if I were the Creator God of the Immortal Prison World, creating a so-called creation-level divine ability isn’t an easy task.”

“Time? We have plenty of it. Take our time.”
Lao He said, “Master, you specialize in the fire element, and your vital energy has long since transformed into chaotic fire-based vital energy. Now, you can use this Chaotic Demon-Annihilating Flame to see if you can create a unique power of your own.”
“Master, it’s very likely that you are the nemesis of the Origin Demons, and perhaps even their savior. There’s a reason this Chaotic Demon-Annihilating Flame exists here… I’m a bit messy in my explanation, but you should understand, right?”
“I know.”
Su Che nodded inwardly. “I get what you mean. Yes, of course we can give it a try!”
