The Flame Demon Heavenly Lord could not help but smile. He was hoping that he could become a Ghost God with the path of the Netherworld and the Ghost God Secret Technique!

One had to know that in this world, ghosts and gods were ultimate existences that could compare to saints!

“At that time, I’ll be another Variant Saint of the new era! That used to be the ultimate terror that stood above all living beings and reached the peak of the world! At that time, I want everyone to submit to me and make all living beings revere me. I definitely won’t let anyone dare underestimate me!”

When the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord thought of this, he could not help but grit his teeth. It was as if he had thought of something that made him extremely vexed. This was because, long ago, he had many enemies. There was even a Quasi-Saint and a Saint who looked down on him!

After he became a Saint, he would definitely slap those people who looked down on him!

“However, right now, we have to get rid of this guy first. Otherwise, the consequences will be worrisome!”

The Flame Demon Heavenly Lord’s gaze fell on Jiang Ming, and he began to think about how to get rid of him.

After half a day, no matter what he did, it seemed that he could not affect this guy at all.

What was going on?

For a moment, the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord could not help but freeze on the spot. Even though he could not use too much power, it was reasonable to say that killing an early-stage Golden Core Realm cultivator should be a piece of cake.

Why was it so difficult?

“No!”

The Flame Demon Heavenly Lord suddenly realized something and stared at Jiang Ming on the other side of the water mirror. “This guy is not only in the Golden Core Realm of the path of immortal cultivation, but also in the Innate Martial Realm of martial arts!”

The reason why he was aware of this was because he had encountered many martial arts experts.

The Flame Demon Heavenly Lord had not noticed it before because some of his methods were slightly off.

Whoosh!

The more he thought about it, the more the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord felt that his physical strength seemed to be constantly declining, and the fear in his heart was constantly magnified.

It was all because of the existence of that martial arts expert that had caused the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord to suffer greatly and almost had his body and soul destroyed.

However…

“This guy is not that bastard from back then. He’s just a martial artist. He’s still a few realms away from being truly powerful. Killing him is simply a piece of cake! However, I have to consider carefully how I should deal with this child… There seems to be a layer of powerful mysterious power protecting him, isolating him from everything…”

Otherwise, why would there be such a powerful force protecting him?

As such, the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord gradually understood that this kid might not be the chosen one, but had some kind of treasure on him that was hindering its investigation.

“Hehe, I wonder what kind of treasure it is… It’s simply a waste of a treasure on a mere Golden Core Realm cultivator. It’s better to give it to me. Only in this way can I maximize the use of this treasure!” the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord thought to himself. He took a few deep breaths, his eyes shining as if he was considering something.

“Bro, I have a feeling that something terrifying is targeting us,” the black sword suddenly said.

In fact, Jiang Ming also noticed this without the black sword’s words, and he could not help but frown.

“He’s purely targeting the two of us, right?”

He glanced at the people around him without leaving a trace, especially Gu Chi and the others. He only slowly withdrew his gaze after making sure that they did not have much of a reaction.

Then, he sucked in a breath of cold air.

“It shouldn’t be Gu Chi, Rao Wuqing, and the others. This terrifying existence comes from this ghostly mystic realm itself… Could it be that the laws are targeting me, or is it the owner of this ghostly mystic realm, the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord?”

Previously, when Jiang Ming saw the ancient characters left behind, he realized that the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord was probably not dead.

It was very likely that this fellow had survived from ancient times until today.

“If that’s the case, then the ancient characters left behind were deceiving us. There might be a problem with the devil fire.”

Jiang Ming took a deep breath, feeling a little frustrated.

If there was a problem with the devil fire, then why did he enter this place?

This was simply nonsense!

However, he could not say anything more. He could only go deeper step by step and see what he should do next.

It was also at this moment that the heartbeat became louder.

“This shouldn’t be an illusion, but a movement that really exists.” The black sword continued to transmit its voice, which made Jiang Ming nod in agreement. This was the only reasonable explanation.

Gu Chi also noticed this and started chatting with Rao Wuqing.

“Uncle Rao, do you think this heart belongs to the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord?”

Gu Chi’s question was a casual one. However, Rao Wuqing’s expression was extremely serious as he said, “This possibility is extremely high. Previously, I had always felt that the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord was not dead, or that he had used another method to survive… After all, he’s pretty much a Quasi-Saint. We have no idea how powerful his methods and trump cards are.”

With that said, Gu Chi was instantly interested.

“In that case, why don’t we give it a try?”

“How do you want to try?” Rao Wuqing asked. “Don’t forget, this is the Land of Heritage of the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord and there are countless laws. If we’re not careful, we might be affected and die. Do you have any way to deal with it?”

Gu Chi thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. He said, “I do have a solution. However, it’s not easy to say whether it’s good or not. ”

“Gu Chi, don’t be ridiculous!” Rao Wuqing frowned and shouted in a low voice. “This place is extremely dangerous. If we’re not careful, we might all fall into the gutter. Don’t make us lose our lives in vain!”

Gu Chi repeatedly agreed. However, no one knew what was going on in his mind.

At this moment, Rao Wuqing’s eyes suddenly lit up.

“Actually, we don’t need to try. There will naturally be people who will scout the way for us.”

Rao Wuqing’s words stunned Gu Chi for a moment before he reacted.

The idiots behind him definitely couldn’t do it.

In that case, they could not send their own people to their deaths in vain.

As such, there seemed to be only one candidate left.

Ning Caichen!

“Uncle Rao, do you think that Ning Caichen would be so stupid as to scout the way for us? I’m afraid it won’t be easy to fool him.”

“It’s impossible to fool him, but he has something he wants. We can use this to negotiate with him.”
