Book 4: Chapter 51: Obtaining the Heaven Punished Stone by Chance

Back when Fairy Waner strangely broke through for no apparent reason, she had nursed some doubts about it for quite a while. Now, she broke through again. Furthermore, it was to the hard-to-reach Heavenly Palace Realm.

I reached the Heavenly Palace Realm for no apparent reason?

For no apparent reason?

Fairy Waner recovered from her intoxicated state. Then, she looked at Gu Hai.

While Fairy Waner broke through, Gu Hai also broke through.

The Nascent Soul Realm’s second layer!

The Nascent Soul Realm’s third layer!

——

Inside Gu Hai’s fire deity palace:

Gu Hai’s nascent embryo was no longer there. Instead, a small, transparent red body now stood in its place.

Gu Hai’s nascent soul was still very small. However, when his consciousness entered the fire deity palace, the little fire nascent soul seemed to be alive, hugging Fairy Waner’s larger nascent soul.

One male and one female, one larger and one smaller. The two nascent souls looked at each other, just like how the two outside looked at each other.

With the Worldly Sorrowful Endowment circulating, the two nascent souls seemed to grow crazily fast. As they looked at each other, interacting with each other, they kept strengthening.

The surging Hanba’s fire in the surroundings was the best nourishment for the two nascent souls, continuously urging the two’s growth.

Gu Hai no longer feared Hanba’s fire. In fact, it had become sustenance as his nascent soul absorbed it.

Gu Hai and Fairy Waner looked at each other. Emotions flared in the two’s eyes, but neither spoke. There was only a slapping sound as emotions filled the two.

The two had fought ever since they first met. Fairy Waner had also lost and felt depressed over it. After that, Gu Hai caused her successive losses. From then on, the two already had an unbreakable bond.

The two’s relationship only made a breakthrough at the Mending Heaven Sect.

After that, Gu Hai saved Fairy Waner, and Fairy Waner saved Gu Hai.

This process seemed complicated, but they had experienced a lot already.

Fairy Waner’s cultivation slowly stabilized.

Gu Hai’s cultivation reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm’s third layer before stopping. Perhaps the Worldly Sorrowful Endowment could push it further, but the Hanba’s fire was no longer sufficient for the two.

The two maintained this for a day before Fairy Waner’s nascent soul slowly came out of Gu Hai’s fire deity palace. Then, the two parted slowly.

As they stood in the fire, they were like fish in water, not feeling any discomfort.

As they looked at each other, their gaze turned much warmer and gentler.

Gu Hai reached out to Fairy Waner’s hair gently.

Fairy Waner suddenly frowned and turned her head, avoiding Gu Hai’s touch.

“What’s wrong?” Gu Hai asked gently.

“We cannot be together.” Fairy Waner shook her head.

Then, Fairy Waner took out some clothes with the flip of her hand and put them on. The fire tried to burn the clothes, but her control from her fire cauldron physique prevented any damage to the clothes.

“Why?” Gu Hai frowned.

Fairy Waner bit on her lips, not saying anything. Suddenly, she took out some men’s clothing. The clothing happened to fit Gu Hai, as though she had prepared them long ago.

“Don’t ask, alright?” Fairy Waner showed a pleading look in her eyes.

As Gu Hai looked at Fairy Waner’s somewhat fearful eyes, his heart softened, and he nodded. “Alright, I won’t ask. Just come back whenever you want to return.”

Fairy Waner revealed a faint, bitter smile but did not say anything. Instead, she helped Gu Hai dress.

The two did not speak as Gu Hai put on black robes.

Hanba’s fire could no longer do anything to Gu Hai. He lowered his head and looked at the fire spewing out incessantly.

“What is below?” Gu Hai wondered aloud.

Gu Hai took a step forward and pulled Fairy Waner’s hand as he headed down.

“I’ll call you Waner in the future?” Gu Hai said gently as they descended.

“My name is Lin Waner.” Fairy Waner nodded.

“Lin Waner?” Gu Hai nodded.

The two soon reached the bottom of the fire.

Rumble…!

Aside from Hanba’s fire, there was also plenty of lightning flashing in the heart of the volcano.

“Oh?”

The two looked down, feeling startled.

They saw a piercing light below.

Hanba’s fire was just the condensation from this piercing light.

This light was so piercing and bright that Gu Hai and Fairy Waner had to squint. They adjusted to the brightness only after a while.

“That is…?” Fairy Waner suddenly goggled.

She saw lightning striking the piercing light below and a large purple stone at the center of the lightning. There seemed to be a clump of golden talisman scripts floating in the air below the stone. The purple stone pressed down on the talisman scripts, suppressing the bright light below together with the talisman scripts. The boundless lightning came from this purple stone.

Fairy Waner’s expression suddenly changed. “This…this is…a Heaven Punished Stone?”

“A Heaven Punished Stone?” Gu Hai raised his eyebrows.

He suddenly recalled the information that Long Wanyu obtained from the demonic phantom when she asked what the toughest material in the world was.

A Heaven Punished Stone? There really is such a rock?

“It really is a Heaven Punished Stone? Then…then…what’s suppressed under it is…,” Lin Waner exclaimed.

“What’s wrong? Is this Heaven Punished Stone very rare?” Gu Hai asked, feeling curious.

“There are only two Heaven Punished Stones in the world. One was used to forge the Immortal Executioner Sword. This is the second,” Fairy Waner said with a bitter smile.

“Oh?”

“I finally understand. That Dongfang lifespan cultivator formed the blood dragon to obtain this Heaven Punished Stone and the treasure that the Heaven Punished Stone is suppressing. No, he is not qualified to obtain that treasure,” Fairy Waner said excitedly.

“What do you mean? What treasure is he not qualified for? On the other hand, he is qualified for this Heaven Punished Stone?” Gu Hai wondered.

“The Heaven Punished Stone is incredibly tough. There is no way to refine a treasure out of it. Although the strongest people in the world are aware of how precious it is, they will not go crazy over it. After all, it would not be easy to refine another Immortal Executioner Sword. However, the thing under it is different. While it is not one of the top sixteen ancient treasures, it is of a similar level,” Lin Waner said bitterly.

“You know about it?” Gu Hai marveled.

Lin Waner nodded and said, “I have read some books about it in the Myriad Age Daoist Sect. The Heaven Punished Stone serves as a suppressor. Now, I know without a doubt who is sealed in the Grave Valley of Death. Ha! It’s her? It’s her? Jiang Ba? This is Jiang Ba’s grave?”

“Jiang Ba? Who?” Gu Hai asked, feeling curious.

“Three thousand years ago, Jiang Ba was a peerless talent, a female demon who shook the world. She was the most talented person in the Jiang Clan, aside from the clan head. Buddhist, Daoist, animal spirit, or demonic, she was familiar with various techniques. She was the one who created Hanba’s fire. All the hanba zombies in the world came from her; she is the primogenitor of all the hanba zombies.” Long Waner appeared shocked.

“She created Hanba’s fire? Created?” Gu Hai appeared slightly shocked.

“Yes. This flame did not exist before that. She formed it by merging a Buddhist flame, a Daoist flame, and a spirit flame. However, she has been sealed for three thousand years for some reason. So, she was here. We need to leave this place right away. The consequences would be dire if she came out. The Heaven Punished Stone should be suppressing a treasure that Jiang Ba refined before she was sealed. The books did not say what it was, but I heard that all the strongest experts in the world would make a move to obtain it once it appears,” Lin Waner said worriedly.

“Oh?” Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly.

“We should go first,” Fairy Waner urged worriedly.

“Since we are here already, how can we leave empty-handed? I won’t go for that treasure, but I want this Heaven Punished Stone,” Gu Hai said seriously.

“But—”

“If I don’t take it, won’t we be leaving it for that Dongfang lifespan cultivator to take? Don’t worry. We will be fine,” Gu Hai said.

The Heaven Punished Stone?

Gu Hai extended his hand towards the Heaven Punished Stone to grab it.

Boom!

A flurry of lightning bolts rushed at Gu Hai.

Buzz!

Inside the fire deity palace, the small fire deity nascent soul opened its eyes and extended its hand to grab.

Rumble…!

Surging thunder flame entered Gu Hai’s body.

Thunder flame was also a type of fire.

The fire deity patiently absorbed the thunder flame while Gu Hai approached the Heaven Punished Stone.

“Hah!”

Suddenly, the Heaven Punished Stone let out a human-like roar as though warning Gu Hai not to approach.

“Oh? A living stone?” Gu Hai narrowed his eyes.

Gu Hai’s hand did not stop. Finally, he touched the Heaven Punished Stone.

Boom!

A thousandfold more lightning bolts rushed into Gu Hai’s body.

“Be careful!” Lin Waner exclaimed.

So much lightning possessed extraordinary might. Even the fire deity could not endure it.

The lightning rushed about, streaking into Gu Hai’s forehead space and trying to make him explode.

Buzz!

Boom!

The Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal in Gu Hai’s forehead space trembled. Then, a strong pressure forced out all the lightning in Gu Hai’s body. A sovereign’s prestige could not be profaned. Earlier, Hanba’s fire did not pour into his forehead space, so it did not antagonize the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal. This time, the lightning went in, angering the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal.

As the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal burst forth with pressure, the black Go stone in it shot a beam of black light at the Heaven Punished Stone.

Buzz!

The Heaven Punished Stone shone with a dazzling purple light, trying to block the black light.

Rumble…!

Neither the black light nor the purple light gave way. The black light seemed to hold the upper hand. However, the purple light refused to submit and wanted to resist, yet it could not do so.

“Since you are unwilling to submit, why not enter my forehead space and fight it out?” Gu Hai said.

The Heaven Punished Stone seemed to understand Gu Hai’s words. It stopped resisting Gu Hai’s right hand and let him grab it.

Buzz!

The Heaven Punished Stone suddenly entered Gu Hai’s forehead space.

“Huh? You collected it?” Fairy Waner said in shock.

“Let’s leave quickly!” Gu Hai’s expression turned serious.

With the Heaven Punished Stone gone, the golden talisman scripts under the Heaven Punished Stone could not prevail over the treasure below.

Boom!

A loud report rang out, and the golden talisman scripts exploded.

The seal came undone. The earlier boundless light no longer seeped out little by little. Instead, it was completely unleashed. The light instantly formed Hanba’s fire, a thousandfold more than before, as it rushed into the sky.

Gu Hai and Lin Waner did not fear Hanba’s fire. However, they still could sense a burgeoning heat chasing them. This heat was simply too intense, ten thousand times—even one hundred thousand times—stronger than Hanba’s fire. The two believed that even with their immunity to Hanba’s fire, they would be burned up.

“Hurry!” Fairy Waner’s expression changed. Then, she grabbed Gu Hai’s arm and took to the sky.

Rumble…!

“Roar!”

The flames below erupted, manifesting many fire dragons that roared as they soared into the sky.
