Chapter 53: Flame Pallbearer

King of Flames was pinned to the ground and didn’t move at all. The magma splattered all around and all the flames gathered over and stuck to the core.

The true King of Flames appeared.

Li Xiandao looked on calmly and said, “You are a little special, able to turn to nothing and as long as your core escapes, you will be able to revive. This place doesn’t lack flames at all, so you are pretty much immortal!”

King of Flames said in a dejected manner, “Even like this, you were still able to find me, how did you know where my core was?”

“This is because I am stronger than you, you are too weak!” Li Xiandao said truthfully.

King of Flames opened his mouth and he didn’t know what to say.

“Why did you all enter this Flame World?” King of Flames asked.

“Ancient Dragon Tomb!” Li Xiandao said right away.

“So you came for the Ancient Dragon Race tomb, you should have said that. It is in front, you can just head over, release me.” King of Flames begged.

“In this Flame World, apart from you, are their other living beings?” Li Xiandao asked curiously.

Tian Guangming and the others were really curious. Under the protection of the Sword Energy, they looked on quietly.

“No, just me. I am born from this place, nurtured after numerous years. In this world, no flames will be able to harm me. Instead, they are my most delicious food. I have been eating and drinking here and have slowly become stronger.” King of Flames said truthfully.

Although it was strong, because it had always been stuck here and had little contact with the outside world, it called itself the King of Flames and was the ruler of this land.

“Have you seen other humans?” Li Xiandao asked.

“Yes, they were just unlucky or came here to try to absorb the Heaven and Earth Flames. Without exception, they all died. The flames here are really strong. Those people were asking to die and after entering they couldn’t hold on for even a moment. I absorbed their memories of death and understood this world.” King of Flames said truthfully. There was still one of Li Xiandao’s Sword Energy at his core area, so he didn’t dare to have other thoughts.

“Since you know that there is an Ancient Dragon Tomb here, have you investigated it before?” Long Haishou was curious and asked.

Li Xiandao also wanted to know.

King of Flames could only be honest, “A Dragon Soul is guarding it, so I can’t enter.”

If he could, then he would have entered long ago; why would he have waited till now?

“Dragon Soul, is it really strong?” Li Xiandao asked solemnly.

It wasn’t his main body but just a bit of his Sword Energy.

“It is still okay and isn’t too strong. That Ancient Dragon Tomb has the Dragon Souls of many Hellfire Dragons and when they worked together to suppress me, there is nothing I can do!” King of Flames was quite depressed when he talked about this.

“Since that is the case, then you lead the way, let’s go together. After we take over the Ancient Dragon Tomb, we will release you.” Li Xiandao thought about it.

King of Flames was unwilling but his life was in Li Xiandao’s hands, so he had no choice. He could only rush over unhappily and occasionally he would accelerate to ditch Li Xiandao.

But no matter how fast it was, in front of Li Xiandao, it was still really slow and Li Xiandao just casually chased after it.

King of Flames took a look and realized it was unable to ditch Li Xiandao. It was dejected; this was the first time it took a loss in its Flame World.

Shortly after, Li Xiandao saw a giant tomb!

There was not much difference between Hellfire Dragon Race tombs and humans’; the only thing was that it was huge!

The Hellfire Dragon Race used flames as a coffin, which wrapped around their corpses. The Hellfire Dragon Race, itself, used fire as its foundations. In this Flame World, the flames would burn their corpses constantly such that they wouldn’t rot and would exist eternally.

Their remaining souls would absorb the power of the Flame World and maintain their remaining aura.

This was the reason why the King of Flames couldn’t enter.

Long Haishou looked at the many giant tombs and exclaimed, “This Dragon Tomb is huge.”

Hellfire Dragon Race is one of the branches of the Ancient Dragon Race. It is really strong and has flames that can wipe out heaven and earth. Their bodies were huge, scales were like magma and they looked really vicious and terrifying. Their combat strength was really strong too.

The strength of the Hellfire Dragon Race was in their desire to fight; when they fought, they didn’t rest until they won.

Maybe it was the Fire Dragon personality, so the Hellfire Dragon Race was really hot-tempered and also loved to keep treasures. This was why their reputation was so bad among the Ancient Dragon Race.

Battle Angel Michael said, “These Dragon Tombs are huge, and even after many years passed they are still really majestic.”

“There are definitely many treasures within.” Tian Guangming’s eyes shone.

Many tombs were placed in the Flame World and there were Dragon Souls wrapped around. Li Xiandao got close and heard the sound of dragon roars that were filled with rage and impulsiveness.

It was as if they were warning Li Xiandao not to get close.

But Li Xiandao scoffed coldly and stepped out. He ignored the dragon aura, coming to the front of the tomb and opened one of the coffins.

An overbearing dragon corpse that was brimming with life laid within.

Around it was a giant God Spirit Meridian that was around the size of the corpse.

This was a Fire element God Spirit Meridian. After many years, it absorbed the essence of the world. Not only did it not lose its main source, but it even evolved and became an elite Spirit Meridian.

This God Spirit Meridian was as good as 10 Dali Land’s God Spirit Meridians.

Not only that, but there were other treasures around the corpse. Dragon Race loved to collect treasures and after death, they would bury them together with the bodies.

Magical Treasures, precious treasures, supreme treasures… When Li Xiandao saw all these, his first thought was…

*　　Rich!*

The Bank of the Universe had little to nothing that they could trade. If they followed his current development speed, it would just be too slow. But with all this, they could increase their trade to a large extent.

Just one tomb had all these. There were 30 here, so that was just a huge treasure trove!

The Dragon Tomb was so huge, so how are we going to move them away? Li Xiandao thought about it.

His main body didn’t come and this was only Sword Energy; he couldn’t shift the 30 tombs away.

For some reason, he looked at the King of Flames!

King of Flames was huge and in the Flame World, it could randomly change its size.

“Why are you looking at me?” King of Flames looked at Li Xiandao in rage.

“Help me move the tombs and send it to the ground. I will give you a fortuitous encounter!” Li Xiandao smiled.

King of Flames shook his head without thinking, “No, I am the King of Flames, not a worker!”

Li Xiandao smiled, “Your core does have a Sword Energy of mine!”

King of Flames stared at Li Xiandao in rage, “Are you threatening me?”

“Move these tombs and I will take the Sword Energy away!” Li Xiandao smiled.

*Scoff* “I agree!” King of Flames nodded his head viciously.
