Chapter 257 - Nine Devils Ancestral Fire

Then his gaze fell on the Sun Devouring Wolf and he said, puzzled, “That’s strange. This Sun Devouring Wolf has stayed here for countless years to get the legendary ancestral fire. Why is it so obedient now that it\'s here?”

“Ancestral fire?” Long Chen froze. Previously, the Sun Devouring Wolf was impatient to rush into the tomb, obviously desperate for something. Could it have been the ancestral fire?

“May I ask what the ancestral fire is?” Long Chen asked respectfully.

“I am not very sure either. I have guarded the ancestral fire for countless years but have never dared to go near it. I only know that it is a super divine object that came to be when the heavens and earth were first formed, according to legends. It holds mysterious powers. There are not many ancestral fires in the world, and encountering one was a huge honor brought about after three lifetimes of accumulating karma. Throughout the ages, I have seen countless masters attempt to tame the ancestral fire, yet no one has had any success.”

A divine object formed from the formation of heaven and earth? Could it be similar to the ancestral dragon’s inherited blood essence? Both of them have the word ‘ancestral,’ so they could be similar, thought Long Chen.

He could sense Xiaolang acting a little unnatural in his arms when he heard the words “ancestral fire.” Xiaolang probably didn’t know what an ancestral fire was, so this was probably due to the remaining willpower of the Sun Devouring Wolf.

When the Burning Heaven Emperor finished speaking, he paused and continued, “Child, you don’t know this, but the Sun Devouring Wolf in your arms was a terrifying presence countless years ago, during my era. Perhaps it’s weak when it’s young, but when it grows up and is released into the vast world out there, it will grow quickly. It can consume any flame, fire crystal, lava, or other fire-element treasure. It then turns them into energy for itself. In terms of growth, it’s number one across all demonic beasts!

“Just as its name suggests, the sun is this world’s largest source of fire. Theoretically, it can even swallow the sun! That is why whenever a Sun Devouring Wolf appeared, the masters of my era were sure to kill it immediately! The Dragon Continent no longer has Sun Devouring Wolves. The one in your arms is probably the only one. The humans of the current era have long forgotten the terror they brought, which is why I sincerely request that you kill it. If you let it grow, it will definitely bring chaos and harm to the world!

“When I found that an extinct Sun Devouring Wolf was born from that pack of Moon Devouring Wolves, I was worried, though at least it could not go to the Dragon Continent. But this is different. It has formed a bond with you, and you’re definitely going to take it outside. When that happens, it will bring terror upon the world!”

The Burning Heaven Emperor grew more and more emotional as he spoke.

Long Chen was stunned. The ancestral fire the Burning Heaven Emperor spoke of sounded extremely awesome. Then, based on what he had just heard, Long Chen finally understood how powerful the Sun Devouring Wolf was. It could even swallow the sun. How powerful was that? This meant that the Sun Devouring Wolf had the ability to destroy the world.

That was terrifying ...

But the Burning Heaven Emperor had not commanded him directly. Instead, he had told him the truth of what happened, wanting Long Chen to be fully convinced to kill the Sun Devouring Wolf. That was why he had said so much. He felt like Long Chen could not bear to kill such an awesome pet, but after learning of the harm it could bring and receiving the inheritance, he was likely to agree.

Long Chen did not look like an idiot.

Yet he did not agree. He shook his head and said, “Sorry for disappointing you, Sir, but I cannot kill him, because he is my best friend.”

“What?” The Burning Heaven Emperor was angry now. He could not understand Long Chen at all and exclaimed in an accusing tone, “Why would you bring terror upon the world because of your selfish desires?!”

Since the Burning Heaven Emperor was going to die soon, Long Chen was direct. “To tell you the truth, there’s another reason why this Sun Devouring Wolf has bonded with me. Sir, I entered the Burning Heaven Secret Realm with my best friend, Mo Xiaolang. During the fight outside the tomb, the Sun Devouring Wolf was severely injured, and Mo Xiaolang wanted to take the opportunity to cultivate its Beast Soul. Unfortunately, there was an accident and now his soul has possessed the Sun Devouring Wolf’s body. It doesn’t matter how terrifying the Sun Devouring Wolf is, he’s still human in his core. You can just treat him as an extremely talented person. Won’t that do?”

The Burning Heaven Emperor was shaken by Long Chen’s explanation, unable to reply for a long time. Then he looked at the Sun Devouring Wolf in disbelief and said, “You mean to say that the ferocious Sun Devouring Wolf is dead and what I’m looking at is a human in its body?”

“Yes,” said Long Chen.

“Good heavens! How is it that I could witness such a peculiar thing right before I die? I wonder what interesting thing will happen when human consciousness enters such a powerful beast’s body? Will the whole Dragon Continent be changed because of this?” The Burning Heaven Emperor’s voice was already starting to fade.

“When I was small, which was during the end of the Middle Ages to you guys, the Dragon Continent was not divided into a few pieces like right now. Information flowed throughout the land easily. I once heard that the most talented warriors were the Dragon Warriors, who had the Inherited Blood Essence of the ten great ancestral dragons. But they had never appeared before! Never! I dare confirm that this child in the Sun Devouring Wolf’s body has a talent similar to the ancestral Dragon Warriors! If he can control the ancestral fire, which is as ancient as the ancestral dragons, I wonder if something even more interesting will happen?” The Burning Heaven Emperor was so excited that he fumbled his words. He stared at Xiaolang with fire in his eyes. Based on his words, it seemed he had no intention to kill Xiaolang anymore.

Long Chen was relieved.

Xiaolang accidentally possessed the Sun Devouring Wolf’s body, but he received powerful abilities in return. I guess that’s considered a silver lining. And me ... the Burning Heaven Emperor said that warriors with the ancestral dragons’ Inherited Blood Essence had never appeared before, so I don’t think I’m one.

Long Chen was a little disappointed that he was not a Dragon Warrior of the most powerful type, but Mo Xiaolang’s future looked hopeful again, and Long Chen was genuinely happy for him as he stared at the brat’s dazed eyes.

“My two children, I don’t have much time. I’m incredibly excited to meet the future strongest cultivator of the Dragon Continent before I die. Finally, let me tell you about the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire beneath this tomb ...”

“Nine Devils Ancestral Fire? Sir, please do tell.” Long Chen nodded. He knew that it was the ancient flame from the beginning of the world’s formation, which was as magical as the ancestral dragons.

“Of course. The Nine Devils Ancestral Fire isn’t complete; it’s just a small portion of it. If the complete form were present here, the Burning Heaven Secret Realm would have collapsed a long time ago. However, even this small piece has caused countless cultivators who wanted to tame it to die. Among them, there were cultivators who were thousands of times stronger than I was. You guys might not understand what that means, but I have existed for a huge part of history and know more than you. The eastern portion of the Dragon Continent, where we are right now, is called the Ten Thousand Nations Territory. Ten thousand countries of all sizes exist in this area. The Cangyang Kingdom is but a drop in the ocean! There are ten great factions in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory. Ten super empires, each ruling over a thousand smaller kingdoms. They are known as the ten great empires. What I’m trying to say is that the strongest warriors of the ten empires were killed by the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire!”

“That’s terrifying!” Long Chen drew a sharp breath. He felt scared when he remembered that such a terrifying entity was just underneath him. If even those warriors had died, then he was terrified he might die from just approaching it.

“That’s right. I am the only one in the world who knows that the Nine Devil Ancestral Fire has escaped to this place. It is sentient, though right now it is in deep sleep. It won’t wake up if no one disturbs it, so don’t worry. But, my children, do you want to try to change the world?!” he exclaimed excitedly.

“The Sun Devouring Wolf can swallow all fire. Before this child possessed its body, the wolf had come several times. I think it was attracted to the scent of the ancestral fire. Do you think the Sun Devouring Wolf will succeed in swallowing the ancestral fire?”

Long Chen knew that this old man, who clearly had some madness in his bones, would have this thought.

“But the ancestral fire is so powerful. Would Xiaolang survive it?” said Long Chen worriedly.

“What are you afraid of? Right now, he possesses the best evolutionary abilities of any beast in the world,” said the Burning Heaven Emperor.

It was such a risky and exciting idea. If it was Long Chen, he would definitely do it, though now he had to ask Mo Xiaolang if he was willing. But when he saw Mo Xiaolang’s burning eyes, he knew that he had made a firm decision.

Mo Xiaolang was indeed as crazy as he was.
