My Immortal Cultivation Game Life-Chapter 746 - 351: Atop the Tower in the Small World_2
But such a display of force failed to elicit even the slightest change in expression from Lu Yi.
For this figure was merely a Heavenly Immortal, far too weak.
Lu Yi reached out a hand, and in the next moment, the figure stiffened in mid-air, roaring and howling in rage, yet unable to move an inch.
Without any apparent action from Lu Yi, the figure flew towards him and stopped in front of him, intensely scrutinized by Lu Yi and the four people including Liu Ningshuang.
It was a Fierce Beast about two meters tall at the shoulder, somewhat resembling a canine, but with a pair of sharp horns. Flames spewed from its eyes, and its body was also ablaze. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
This Fierce Beast clearly possessed a soul and was not merely an illusion created by fire.
This piqued Lu Yi's curiosity, "I didn't expect to find an Immortal Beast in this Small World. I wonder if it was brought here by the Immortal King who created this place or if it was born within this world."
If it was the former, that would be less interesting. If a Small World, created by an Immortal King or Immortal Emperor, could actually give birth to living beings, then Lu Yi would find that quite intriguing.
His own Small World inside him, in essence, wasn't much different from such a Small World. If such a world could give birth to an Immortal Beast, then the Small World inside him should also be capable of producing living beings.
If a world composed entirely of Fire Origin could produce such Fire Element Immortal Beasts, what sort of creatures would a world made of Taoist Energy and Chaos Qi produce?
Lu Yi was very curious about this.
However, even if this were possible, Lu Yi probably would have to wait until he reached the Immortal King Realm.
Shaking his head, Lu Yi made the Fire Element Immortal Beast go from still to motion, hurtling it away like a cannonball into the far distance.
Lu Yi did not deal a killing blow, for if this Immortal Beast was important to the Small World itself, it might attract the enmity of that phantom.
This was not something Lu Yi wished to see.
It wasn't that Lu Yi feared the phantom. In reality, the phantom didn't have much strength, and even if it activated an Acquired Spirit Treasure, Lu Yi was confident he could escape.
He simply wanted to ask the phantom some questions about the reasons for the disappearance of the Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors, as well as everything about Jiuyou. It wouldn't be good if things became stiff.
"Let's go."
Continuing their journey, Lu Yi said, leading Liu Ningshuang and the other three deeper.
As they ventured deeper, the temperature grew hotter, likely unbearable even for those with Great Power at the Unification or Mahayana Realm.
However, to Immortals, it was just a bit warm.
Lu Yi and the others were unaffected.
Along the way, they encountered several more Immortal Beasts, all of which were Fire Element and looked different from the first canine-like Immortal Beast they met.
Some were gigantic, over a hundred meters tall, like wild bulls, with savage strength and surrounded by flames like erupting magma.
Others resembled feline Immortal Beasts, extremely agile, hiding and ambushing within the sea of fire.
Lu Yi even saw forests growing within the sea of fire.
The journey was fraught with danger, likely insurmountable even for a Heavenly Immortal.
But for the current Lu Yi, such an environment posed no challenge.
Soon, Lu Yi and his companions neared the tower.
Only when they got close did they realize the tower wasn't very big, but it could be seen from a great distance, as though it was the center of the Small World.
This was the only object Lu Yi saw along the way not composed of fire.
The tower was made of a red crystal, reminiscent of the crystal used by the Red Clan for their palaces but much more heat-resistant than the ones used by the clan outside.
Lu Yi examined the tower built of Red Crystal with some curiosity, pondering if there might be a connection between the material used by the Red Clan for their palaces and this crystal.
"Is this tower the place for the trial?" Donggong Ming Yue asked excitedly as she surveyed the tower.
She flew around the tower and quickly found the entrance, then with some eagerness said, "Should we just go in directly?"
Liu Ningshuang and the other two were equally curious.
"Ming Yue, why don't you try it first?" Jian Ruyu suggested.
At that moment, a faint red phantom suddenly appeared in the air, eyeing Lu Yi and his companions.
Seeing this pale red phantom, Donggong Ming Yue, who had already planned to rush into the high tower, was taken aback and instinctively moved closer to Lu Yi.
Liu Ningshuang and the other two also moved closer to Lu Yi.
However, the pale red phantom paid no attention to Liu Ningshuang and the others; since his appearance, he had been watching Lu Yi.
Lu Yi was also sizing up the pale red phantom.
The phantom looked exactly like the young man Lu Yi had seen through his Fate Skill, handsome and very similar to the Red Clan.
The two of them locked eyes, and then the pale red phantom showed a smile, "Young friend, it must be you who peered into this place through destiny before, right?"
Lu Yi smiled slightly and said with a bow, "Please forgive me, predecessor, I was concerned about potential dangers here before."
"Being cautious and vigilant when traveling outside is good," the pale red phantom shook his head, "I did not mean to blame you, young friend."
Lu Yi chuckled, "That's good to hear. I have many questions I wish to ask you."
The pale red phantom laughed heartily, "I also have many questions for you, young friend. Since this is the case, shall we find a place to sit and talk at length?"
"Of course, no problem," Lu Yi nodded and replied.
The pale red phantom smiled, "Follow me."
He flew towards the top of the high tower.
Seeing this, Lu Yi followed, while Liu Ningshuang and the others were a bit stunned but still followed suit.
They had thought about entering the tower to see if there were tests or the like, to see if they could inherit the Immortal King's legacy.
Unexpectedly, someone had already come to invite them?
No, it should be to invite Lu Yi.
With a look of puzzlement on their faces, they wondered if he was the successor appointed by an Immortal King or Immortal Emperor?
The women glanced at Lu Yi and saw his calm expression, feeling somewhat proud inside.
He truly was their man!
The group flew to the top of the tower, and the next moment, an opening suddenly appeared in the originally smooth wall, with the pale red phantom saying with a light laugh, "Come in."
He entered the opening first, and Lu Yi followed, with Liu Ningshuang and the others trailing behind him.
Inside was a vast red space with intense heat; Lu Yi saw the golden-red ring radiating immense pressure, as if it suppressed everything.
Liu Ningshuang and the others also saw the ring immediately, their pupils shrinking as they felt a tingling in their chests from the pressure.
The four women involuntarily moved closer to Lu Yi, looking vigilant.
Seeing this, the pale red phantom said with a smile, "Young friends, there's no need to worry, I mean you no harm."
Lu Yi chuckled and nodded, "I believe you, predecessor."
Because he had mastered the Destiny Law, even without using his Fate Skill, Lu Yi could somewhat perceive good and bad in reality.
He hadn't felt anything harmful happening to him so far, and considering the previous affirmation through his Fate Skill, Lu Yi could confirm the phantom really had no ill intentions toward him.
Of course, even if there were ill intentions, Lu Yi wouldn't be afraid.
The pale red phantom waved his hand, and a table made of red crystals appeared in the red space.
"Let's sit down to talk," the pale red phantom sat down first and said with a light chuckle, "In fact, I am just a residual shadow without a physical body; sitting doesn't really feel like anything. But thinking of you, young friends, I think it's better to do the same as you."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yi had a slightly odd look on his face, not expecting the pale red phantom to be so understanding.
"Thank you, predecessor. Then I won't stand on ceremony," he said.
He sat down first, and Liu Ningshuang and the others also took their seats on either side of Lu Yi.
The pale red phantom gazed at Lu Yi, smiling, "Young friend, we both have questions, so why don't you ask your questions first?"
Lu Yi was taken aback, then smiled, "Then I thank you, predecessor."
He took a deep breath and looked at the pale red phantom, asking, "You said you are a residual shadow, so what strength does your original body possess?"
