Chapter 779: Chapter 575 Starting with a Battle_1

The entrance to the Chaos Furnace was a sky pit emitting a flame-like red glow, its radius exceeding ten kilometers. Seen from the sky, it resembled the Gate of Hell; in reality, it had no relation to Hell whatsoever, and even the rules of Hell couldn’t affect it.

Otherwise, the people here wouldn’t be trapped in a cycle of life and death, until their spiritual will burnt out in the Chaos Furnace.

Inside was an area even more vast than its exterior. When looking in from the outside, one could see ’flames’ billowing inside, their shapes akin to countless tangled shadows locked in combat. For those with insufficient willpower, a mere glance could parch their spirit, sending them tumbling into the Chaos Furnace.

"It seems even worse than the Hell on our side." Feeling the chaotic, scorching air gushing out of the Chaos Furnace, Lin Yaoyao felt her hair turning brittle and wan.

The white ball, hanging on the motorcycle handlebar like an ornament, seemed very lively and even wanted to jump into the Chaos Furnace on its own. Zheng Yichen grabbed it back and tossed it into his internal space, making it a toy for the young dragon Tanshia Firlo.

He released the ashes silhouette, which immediately let out gleeful hehe sounds, seeming to thoroughly enjoy the environment here.

"Alright, let’s go." Zheng Yichen led the way into the Chaos Furnace. Ghostly green flames enveloped Liu Hongzhao and the others following him, creating a sensation as if traversing through space. Although they were still in freefall, the environment around them had transformed into a ’sky’.

Above them was a dark-red, hollow ’sun,’ which was the ’passage’ to enter the Chaos Furnace.

Unexpectedly, the entrance also served as the ’light source’ for the Chaos Furnace.

Below was a patchwork of mottled dark-red and enveloping, gloomy grey mists; everywhere, there were ruins of buildings, and the bones of various creatures eroded by the speckled earth.

Several blood-colored figures rapidly approached, their faces bearing greed and madness: "Women! Hahaha! Such tender human women!!"

Bang——

The first one to shout... well, he might be considered human, though he appeared to have parts of other creatures grafted onto him, making him not quite look like one. His loud hollering ceased after Zheng Yichen shot him dead.

The bullet, endowed with the Reality Interference Domain, had a limited range of influence, but at a radius of 1.5 meters, it was not insignificant. In addition to interfering with other powers within its range, the Reality Interference Domain could also strengthen the influence of the dominant forces in the environment.

For instance, if an area was dominated by darkness, and the Reality Interference Domain’s interfering power was light-based, it could effortlessly reverse the direction of the forces within the interfered range.

The bullet carried a crushing force field, and with the enhancement from the Reality Interference Domain, all Elements power within the affected area would be ’crushed.’ While it couldn’t completely eliminate the Elements power, it could break them down to the extent that neither spellcasters nor warriors could control them.

"..." Watching Zheng Yichen’s face sporting an ’attack first and die first’ expression, the remaining blood-colored figures hesitated for a moment then charged even more furiously.

Well, this was the Chaos Furnace; Golden Dragon Denas had explained its unique qualities. Chaos and madness reigned here. Perhaps there were some who would choose to flee, but many more were influenced by the Chaos Furnace and, with just a little provocation, would furiously fight to the death.

The current beings here were just like that.

After they were casually blown apart by Zheng Yichen’s gunfire, chaos completely enveloped the surroundings. Piercing roars echoed from afar, more figures moved toward them, and some creatures began fighting each other en route.

"This is more exaggerated than I knew." Zheng Yichen holstered his Army Decimating pistol and grasped the fishing rod. With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed waves of fire that engulfed the approaching creatures: "But this is perfect, let’s start!!"

His Essence of Life recovery was very slow; devouring the earth caused significant damage, and though it was a rapid way to regain strength, let’s not forget his current identity.

He was a man of the Dusk; Dusk valued the world itself more than living beings. Devouring the earth was akin to undermining the world’s foundation.

"Take action."

Liu Hongzhao drew her sword, and her blood-colored wind-sword energy effortlessly sliced through the approaching Chaos creatures. Her aura, surrounded by a mist of blood, turned more sanguinary, her attacks fiercer.

When not engaged in combat, Liu Hongzhao, with her blood-red hair and crimson pupils, resembled an Evil Path enchantress, while Lin Yaoyao didn’t show such a strong manifestation unless one had a keen perception of Qi and could sense the magic power in their martial arts.

But once they acted, their true natures were revealed: Liu Hongzhao summoned a storm of bloody stench, while Lin Yaoyao gathered a circulating Blood River around her that wouldn’t cease.

Qi Xiangyun wasn’t as ’bloodthirsty’ as the other two, but as she passed by, those Chaos creatures burst into blood-red lightning, while she herself moved like leaping lightning, swiftly shuttling among them. Each Chaos creature acted like a conductor transmitting electric currents.

The blood lightning absorbed the blood mist and grew stronger, following Qi Xiangyun’s rapid movements and forming a huge lightning network along her path.

Zheng Yichen could tell that all three girls had acquired their own unique skills through growth, further enhancing their physiological attributes to better serve their roles in battle.

The Blood Asura’s magic power fed on battle, which became even more powerful in group fights, accelerating the cultivator’s growth. Here in the Chaos Furnace, every creature was fearless and infected by the environment, bursting with battle intent.

The insane, chaotic battle intent mixed with the blood qi from their deaths filled Liu Hongzhao’s eyes with a frenzied urge to kill, and the influence of the Chaos Furnace seemed to be taking hold of them.

As for Zheng Yichen? He didn’t feel much pressure. First off, his soul was already extraordinary because he had killed many special creatures, like that jellyfish creature, and after dealing with the Great Evil God, his soul and mental resistance—or should I say endurance—had reached an extremely high level.

This enhancement rendered the Demonic Abyss Seven Kills almost harmless to him unless he used the technique as a regular attack, and the Ice Heart Mantra he learned also improved rapidly under the accumulated pressure of demonic thoughts.

Hence, the effects of this place didn’t bother him, at least not for now.

If Liu Hongzhao and the others each took a direction, then—

Zheng Yichen’s mouth twitched slightly, his eyes covered with a faint black light. The demonized Asura Battle Intent he wielded stirred the chaotic aura in the environment, driving the Chaos creatures facing him into an even greater frenzy.

A black substance covered the fishing rod, solidifying into a giant saber. The black spear had been his weapon of choice, but in battles like this, a giant saber felt more comfortable.

A single swing of the saber, a blood-colored blade arc swept through, turning any touched Chaos creature into a desiccated corpse. This scene didn’t deter the other Chaos creatures; they remained lost in the madness induced by the demonized Asura Battle Intent.

Today, either they or Zheng Yichen had to die. Death? In the Chaos Furnace, death was the least feared. Moreover, some Chaos creatures even rushed at Zheng Yichen like moths to a flame, eagerly embracing death.

This madness slightly puzzled Zheng Yichen. The demonized Asura Battle Intent could induce a state of battle frenzy more extreme than the regular Asura Battle Intent and was also more likely to trigger the thresholds of mental defense artifacts.

But Zheng Yichen didn’t mind. Let it trigger. After all, the black-light-tinged demonized Asura Battle Intent was continuous; how long could those protections last?

Yet here, the behavior of these Chaos creatures exceeded the range of simple battle frenzy, as if they were seeking release by throwing themselves into death willingly?

Zheng Yichen didn’t show mercy just because some Chaos creatures acted this way. Every creature in the Chaos Furnace was there for slaughter. There were no rules, only endless fighting.

Soon, Zheng Yichen realized why those Chaos creatures were so eager to die. The battle frenzy stirred up by the demonized Asura Battle Intent was still battle intent, and any creature dying in battle here would cycle between life and death.

Until their spiritual will was ground to dust, burned up, the Chaos creatures affected by the demonized Asura Battle Intent, regardless of whether their spirits would recover, at least their combat will would become extremely agitated and intense. For those nearly burned out in the Chaos Furnace, this...could this be considered a way to prolong life?

With this thought, Zheng Yichen’s smile only brightened, or rather, looked more ferocious against the backdrop of black light as the intensity of the demonized Asura Battle Intent once again increased. The roaring around him was like waves, and all the Chaos creatures in the battlefield went mad.

Some Chaos creatures drawn by the battle looked hesitantly at the ’battle intent’ filled area, which reached to the skies.

They hadn’t seen anything like this before. While creatures in the Chaos Furnace were like a powder keg, ready to explode at a touch, it didn’t mean all of them had lost their minds.

Here one could even find establishments like taverns, usually outdoors, with the vicinity of the taverns often piled with corpses, the tavern keepers making wine from the blood of those who died in battle.

It was normal for the chaotic battlefield to be filled with battle intent, but this time, the bursting battle intent formed ominous clouds in the sky, with the contours of a grim face appearing and disappearing.

Soon, some Chaos creatures outside the battlefield succumbed to the temptation of the battle intent, roaring as they charged in.

The Chaos Furnace earned its name because the relentless warfare here could forge any creature just like a furnace.

Body, spirit, will, and so on: the weak were consumed by the flames, the strong grew stronger.
