Chapter 258: Divine Flames Scorch the Heavens – "Husband~"
As time continued flowing in the vibrant and lively world above, deep within the magma world beneath the surface, a different kind of "liveliness" unfolded one that needed no further explanation.
Time in the magma world seemed frozen, undisturbed by external events. Only the endless, flowing lava remained in motion, along with a drifting mass of four colored flames.
In such a lifeless place, no one cared about the passage of time. No one even felt its presence.
Of course
There were always exceptions…
And it wasn't just one being
But an entire race of Fire Lizardmen.
For an entire year
Their lives had been nothing short of a nightmare.
They had homes but couldn't return to them. They had bodies but couldn't rest properly.
Because just when they were about to fall asleep
That damned drifting mass of four colored flames would come looking for them, disturbing their peace.
This torment…
It was like a human trying to sleep, only to have someone suddenly set their leg hair on fire.
Disgusting.
Frustrating.
And yet they were powerless to stop it.
Because… their leg hair was already gone.
(Ahem, not that I would know. Just an analogy.)
The two white scaled, half saint level Fire Lizardmen had completely given up.
Even when their underlings came begging for help
All they could do was helplessly shrug.
After all
With the Guardian of the Divine Tomb's orders in place
Who the hell would dare disobey?
They could only lie back and suffer in silence
Helpless against the drifting, four colored flames.
The depths of the magma world were vast a seemingly endless sea of molten rock.
And within it
A mass of four colored flames drifted aimlessly.
White, blue, green, and translucent flames flickered and intertwined, standing out strikingly against the crimson surroundings.
If one looked closely
Deep within this fiery sphere…
Hehehe~
You wouldn't see a damn thing!
Only the subtle ripples in the magma…
And the eternal, ceaseless drifting of the flames…
There was no concept of time in this magma world.
The four colored flames continued their aimless journey, floating endlessly.
Perhaps
Only when their purpose was fulfilled
Would they finally stop moving.
A year in this world
Was nothing more than the blink of an eye.
A vast black void.
An endless, silent darkness.
Within it
A chaotic consciousness drifted, like a sleepwalker lost in an eternal dream.
There was no starting point.
No destination.
Only wandering…
Drifting in the darkness.
Who knew how long it had been?
A year?
Decades?
No one could say for certain.
The only one who knew
Was deep in concentration, refining his body without rest…
And then
Somewhere in the far distance
A new color emerged.
Faint at first
But gradually spreading.
Like a rainbow, a mesmerizing glow burst into the dark abyss.
The drifting, hazy consciousness was drawn to this light
Like a feather caught in the wind
Moving closer and closer.
The four colored flames merged with the seven colored radiance, intertwining beautifully.
A fusion of two forces
Two souls resonating as one.
And within the flames
A warmth, soothing to the very soul, enveloped Wu Tian completely.
That warmth
Was beyond words.
As his consciousness surged back, Wu Tian slowly opened his eyes.
Within the drifting firestorm, Wu Tian's gaze softened.
Before him
A peerless beauty, breathtaking beyond imagination.
Medusa.
His lips curled into a charming smile.
"Congratulations, Host, for completing the task of helping Medusa advance to Dou Zong."
"Reward: One Scroll of a Super God Tier Skill."
"Please check your inventory."
That familiar voice echoed in Wu Tian's mind.
Though excited, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Perhaps
His system had the lowest sense of existence among all systems?
But
Its rewards were always insanely powerful.
What kind of super god tier skill was it this time?
[Divine Flames Scorch the Heavens: Super God Tier Skill]
"Though Host is currently only at the Dou Zong level, this skill will allow you to unleash a power capable of burning the heavens and boiling the seas!"
"In an instant, you will possess the might to incinerate even a Half Saint!"
"Holy sh*t."
Wu Tian's eyes widened.
With his current strength
He could now burn a Half Saint to ashes?
This was absolutely insane.
Compared to this
Every other battle technique in existence was trash!
Having one super god tier skill was worth more than hundreds of those so called high tier skills.
As he focused inward, Wu Tian sensed the changes within his body.
His physical energy had surged to mid stage Dou Huang.
Wait
Had his dual cultivation with Medusa triggered this?
He had jumped straight from Dou Wang to Dou Huang?
And his soul power
Wu Tian checked again.
"Holy f*ck."
His soul strength had skyrocketed from late stage Dou Zong to early stage Dou Zun!
An entire small realm AND a major class breakthrough?!
Even absorbing Heavenly Flames hadn't given him such a boost!
There could only be one explanation
Medusa.
As the Guardian Queen System, completing tasks not only granted rewards
But also boosted his own power.
Of course
That required them to confirm their relationship first.
Wu Tian grinned.
This was too damn good.
He looked down
At the stunning, delicate beauty nestled in his embrace.
Medusa.
His Queen.
Now
Her soul was fully stabilized.
The Swallowing Python's consciousness had merged with hers.
And her strength had soared to late stage Dou Zong.
Such rapid progression was unheard of.
It wasn't just due to her inherent monstrous talent
But also
Wu Tian's efforts.
The pure energy within his Heavenly Flames had completely refined her body.
She was no longer bound by her old limitations.
"Wife~ It's time to leave."
Wu Tian chuckled affectionately.
Medusa gently nodded.
She said nothing.
Her pride was for the outside world.
For her man
She was gentle beyond words.
Only in moments like these
Would the proud and regal Queen Medusa melt into a soft, delicate woman.
Yet
Not long ago
Wu Tian had been the one surrendering under her dominance.
The Queen's authority had been undeniable.
Countless intimate whispers had filled the air…
As Wu Tian carried Medusa upward, toward the surface
A soft, delicate voice reached his ears.
"Husband~"
"...Clothes."
Wu Tian froze.
Then
He awkwardly chuckled.
Quickly, he retrieved a dress he had saved just for her.
No one else had ever been allowed to wear it.
Only Medusa.
Taking her jade like hand, Wu Tian led his Queen toward the exit.
Meanwhile, the Fire Lizardmen watched from afar.
"He's finally leaving…"
"We can finally have our home back."
"Dad, doesn't it feel like our home smells different now?"
"Shut up and go to sleep!"
