I Truly Am The Villian - Chapter 2266
Chapter 2266: Chapter 2265: Heart Removed, Heavenly Mysterious Cold Iron
The Five Elders refer to the five ancestors in the east, south, west, north, and center.
It is said that the five of them are quintuplets.
Even more remarkably, the five of them share one heart.
If it were an ordinary heart, it would surely have failed under the shared burden.
But this heart is truly extraordinary.
It’s a Five Orifices Glazed Glass Heart. The powerful heart not only sustains the lives of the five, continuously supplying blood,
But also greatly enhances their comprehension, doubling their cultivation efficiency, with all five hearts in tune.
This singular heart can be said to have transformed their destinies.
Their cultivation advanced at double speed, quickly making a name for themselves.
Moreover, united in heart and mind, they advanced together, with few loose cultivators daring to truly challenge them.
Though the Five Elders were united in heart and purpose, their cultivation methods differed.
After all, if the cultivation were too homogenized, it would be disadvantageous for all.
Only by complementing one another can they achieve the best results.
The five use the Five Elements as their Dao foundation, anchoring in the east, south, west, north, and center, cultivating Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.
When the five energies unite, they are said to achieve Divine Passage.
At this moment, the appearance of the five fills many with hope.
After all, everyone has confidence in the strength of these five.
Even if they haven’t seen them, they’ve heard of their reputation.
The Five Elders are dressed in different colors.
Elder Jin wears golden robes, Wood Elder wears green, Fire Elder wears red, Earth Elder wears yellow, Water Elder wears blue.
The five robes correspond to the colors of their attributes.
As the five stepped into Blade Mountain Fiery Sea, Xu Zimei, who similarly ventured into Blade Mountain Fiery Sea nearby, went unnoticed.
Even if someone saw him, they wouldn’t care.
After all, Xu Zimei is unassuming, and it’s a farfetched dream for these people to comprehend his level.
……
Upon entering Blade Mountain Fiery Sea,
Xu Zimei immediately felt a scorching heat assault him.
Though at his current strength, the heat hardly affected him.
However, he could sense that Blade Mountain Fiery Sea was far stronger than when he last visited.
Beneath his feet was a fiery sea.
There was no place to stand.
Even if one tries to stand in mid-air, the fiery sea below constantly burns.
Makes one have to use Spiritual Energy to isolate the fiery sea while fighting, defending simultaneously.
Otherwise, a careless step into the fiery sea would leave no trace of a corpse.
Beneath this fiery sea lies a volcano.
A perpetually erupting active volcano.
The powers of the Netherworld Realm were likely dissatisfied with the previous setup of the fiery sea but moved this volcano from afar with great divine power.
The volcano serves as the source of the fiery sea.
Besides the transformation of the fiery sea, even the Blade Mountain grew sharper.
Every knife in the void was no mortal iron.
They were forged from Heavenly Mysterious Cold Iron.
This Heavenly Mysterious Cold Iron, by name, seems to carry coldness.
Yet that’s not the case.
This iron fell from the heavens, passing through the Spatial Wall of the Nine Domains World, falling from millions of meters high, causing serious burning and friction with space.
This led to the transformation from cold to fiery.
This is a mutated iron.
Weapons made from it carry naturally cold gases.
Capable of freezing three thousand meters, with frost descending over ninety thousand miles.
Yet to nurture this iron and enhance the internal cold, requires flames to nourish.
Ice and fire are inherently incompatible, even opposed.
Yet they perfectly merge at this moment.
The two become one, water and fire unite.
The knives forged from Heavenly Mysterious Cold Iron in this fiery sea not only go unrestrained.
Their power greatly increases.
The Netherworld Realm set these two elements, almost blocking ninety percent of people.
After all, the Netherworld Realm is a place for the dead.
Therefore, this checkpoint is a true death trap, devoid of vitality.
When Xu Zimei entered here, he didn’t rush to break through, but looked at the Five Elders.
Truth be told, he doesn’t think highly of the five.
Though the five are all in the Taoist Fruit Realm, such a force might work externally, but the Netherworld Realm differs from other realms entirely.
The five stepped forward in mid-air.
Fire Elder was the first to wave his hand.
He cultivates fire, and should flourish in this fiery sea, the fire energy greatly increasing.
But the reality is not so.
At this moment when Fire Elder waved his hand, he seemed to try controlling the flames of this sea.
“Open,” he softly exclaimed.
As if attempting to create a path through the fiery sea.
But it’s not that simple.
As his power surged, the aura around him drastically increased, and indeed the fiery sea moved.
Sticky magma began to separate to the sides.
Yet doing so was extremely exhausting, Fire Elder’s old body was already drenched in sweat.
To make a fire element cultivator feel heat, imagine how terrifying it is.
“Let’s do this together,” Elder Jin noticed Fire Elder’s unusual state and quickly shouted.
Understandably, though the five cultivate Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, with different energy attributes.
Their united heart allows their powers to become one.
Without conflict.
This is the truly terrifying aspect of the five.
They formed mutual seals, their internal powers surged, transforming into four red torrents, directly pouring into Fire Elder.
At this moment, regardless of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth energy, all were transmuted into fire attribute.
Then all merged into Fire Elder.
Fire Elder seemed to receive immense enhancement.
He bore the power of five.
“Rumble, rumble.”
At this moment, power increased greatly.
His forehead’s veins bulged, his face twisted.
Yet the fiery sea boiled.
He truly forged a path through it.
“Succeeded,” someone outside saw this scene.
Couldn’t help but shout excitedly.
“As long as there’s a road, we can all pass through.”
“Don’t celebrate too early,” someone beside reminded.
“If the checkpoint was this simple, it wouldn’t have claimed so many lives.”
Just as the person’s words left their lips, like a prophecy.
Within Blade Mountain Fiery Sea, as the fiery sea was divided, the blades whirling in the firmament couldn’t hold back.
Heavenly Mysterious Cold Blades descended directly.
So fast, those present couldn’t even see an afterimage.
“Boom.”
Not only for those present, but even the Five Elders reacted poorly, getting their chests pierced by five Heavenly Mysterious Cold Blades.
In people’s shock, the Five Elders showed no panic.
The five trembled.
They forced out all Heavenly Mysterious Cold Blades.
“Too bad we share one heart, which we’ve long hidden.”
“We’re just five incomplete bodies.
No matter how much you kill, as long as you can’t find the heart, you can’t kill us.”
The Fire Elder said proudly.
Everyone knows the five share one heart.
But they don’t know the heart isn’t in their bodies.
With their heart separate, they live all the same.
This is their proudest thing, their trump card.
