Chapter 140: The Trouble in the Fire God Temple.
That day, the seven of them left the Ice God Palace together. According to the Ice God, Shui Bing'er, with her limited experience, needed more life insights and trials. Therefore, she could leave the Ice God Palace with them for training, and could return at any time.
When the seven returned to the surface, they once again felt the bitter cold of the far north. The passage they had dug to the Ice God Palace had miraculously vanished, leaving only ice. It was likely that Shui Bing'er would be the only one who could enter the Ice God Palace from now on.
Xiao Fei bided his time, waiting until noon before making his move.
"Sister Bing'er, I've determined the general location of the Fire God Temple. Now I need your help in confirming the exact location."
Shui Bing'er nodded. Huo Wu, standing beside them, had a grim expression, clearly jealous.
The two held hands again, summoning their Ice Phoenix and Fire Phoenix spirits, fusing them into the Martial Soul Fusion Technique: Ice and Fire Phoenix.
With Shui Bing'er reaching the Titled Douluo level and evolving into Ultimate Ice, the power of their combined spirits grew even stronger, and the resulting Ice and Fire Phoenix grew even larger.
After the Ice and Fire Phoenix formed, Xiao Fei felt its power grow even stronger.
Xiao Fei quickly sensed the direction of the sun as he had suspected. Sure enough, within the direct line of sight of the sun, there seemed to be some powerful force, the power of the fire element.
The Ice and Fire Phoenix instantly grabbed the remaining five people with its claws, then flapped its wings and flew rapidly towards the sun.
As they drew closer to the sun, a massive palace appeared in the void, even larger than the Ice God Palace.
As they drew closer, the temperature around them intensified. The five people used their spirit power to resist the attack, but the Ice and Fire Phoenix seemed unresponsive and flew straight towards the palace.
When the Ice and Fire Phoenix reached the outside of the palace, Xiao Fei and Shui Bing'er released their spirit fusion technique. What emerged was a massive palace, floating in the sky, engulfed in a sea of fire. The sun seemed closer, while the ground seemed further away.
Before them stood a massive, fiery-red door, and above it a plaque bore the three characters "Fire God Temple."
As expected, the Fire God Temple lay within the void of the heavens, visible only at noon each day and hidden at all other times. Furthermore, because it was aligned with the sun, it was impossible to detect. Only a god could sense it.
When the seven arrived at the Fire God Temple's gates, they simultaneously summoned their spirits, "Greetings, Lord Fire God. Please summon us."
As if receiving a summons, the Fire God Temple's gates slowly opened.
The seven solemnly entered the Fire God Temple and, following the instructions, arrived before a vast hall.
Atop a throne in the center of the hall sat a massive, fiery-red shadow, its presence imposing a mountain-like pressure on them.
Seven people knelt on one leg at the same time: "Greetings, Lord God of Fire."
A moment later, a magical force lifted the seven people up: "Get up, I didn't expect you to come to the Fire Temple so soon."
"My Fire Temple has disappeared from the world for more than 100,000 years. There is no high priest as they said, and there is no need for servants and believers. Therefore, only those who have inherited my legacy can get the divine test. Others can train, but there is no separate reward level."
"My Fire God's inheritance is the simplest and most domineering. If you are not careful, your body and soul will be destroyed and burned to ashes. Do you accept my Fire God's inheritance?"
Xiao Fei couldn't help complaining in his heart. Isn't it because they don't have the power of faith or divine power? Otherwise, how come there is no divine test and reward?
The seven people looked serious: "Lord God of Fire, we are willing to accept the test of the Fire God."
The Fire God nodded, and the entire Fire Temple flickered with flames, ultimately forming a fiery red light in the center. This light split into seven beams and sank directly into the brows of the seven figures.
However, something unexpected happened: the light beams of Yang Pojun, Niu Meng, Feng Xiaotian, and Shui Bing'er vanished without a trace, clearly unsuitable for the Fire God.
Meanwhile, a red flame mark appeared between the brows of Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu, with Huo Wu appearing to be a darker shade than Huo Wushuang's.
Xiao Fei's performance was the most surprising. After the fiery red light entered their brows, a black tiger mark flashed, swallowing the flames, and then vanished.
The seven figures were stunned. They could even devour the Fire God's divine test energy.
The Fire God, still in the divine realm, was most astonished. How could his divine power vanish so completely just after the contents of his divine test were released?
The God of Fire seemed a little bit unconvinced. The shadow in the Temple of Fire pointed again, and an even stronger and richer power of the God of Fire entered Xiao Fei's brow. However, just as the energy entered Xiao Fei's brow, it was swallowed up by the black tiger again and disappeared without a trace.
In the God Realm, in the Temple of Fire, the God of Fire and the God of the Sea sat opposite each other. The God of Fire asked with some doubt, "What's going on? God of the Sea, you have sent down more divine tests. Can you confirm what this is?"
The God of the Sea suppressed the urge to laugh and said, "Only gods can interfere with divine tests. From what I saw just now, there is a black tiger between Wang Xiaofei's eyebrows. It seems to be the little black tiger that the Evil God King placed on the Douluo Continent. I don't know how this Wang Xiaofei killed that tiger and obtained part of the inheritance of the Evil God King."
"I guess the Evil God King has noticed him, and Wang Xiaofei carries the Shura Demon Sword on his back. The God of Shura probably noticed this Wang Xiaofei too."
The God of the Sea couldn't help muttering in his heart: I told you to send down the inheritance earlier, but now it looks like it will be intercepted by Shura or evil. Let's see how you will be so arrogant in the future. Fortunately, I sent down the inheritance a long time ago, and I have two preparations.
"Then what should I do?"
"You'd better persuade Wang Xiaofei to give up the object between his eyebrows, otherwise your inheritance won't be passed on."
"Even though this kid is already a Limit Douluo, he probably can't get the object out of his eyebrows. And if we interfere, the Shura God will definitely find out. That would be troublesome."
In the Fire God Temple on Douluo Continent, everyone in the hall fell silent.
Looking down at the people watching him, the Fire God seemed a little embarrassed. He had clearly instructed Wang Xiaofei to come and participate in the inheritance assessment, but now he couldn't even pass the assessment.
"Wang Xiaofei, you already have an inheritance and can't accept mine."
"But, Lord Fire God, I don't know what this object between his eyebrows is. How can I remove it?"
"Don't worry, although you can't accept my inheritance, I can make an exception and allow you to participate in the relevant assessment."
Xiaofei was speechless. Isn't it just an Evil God Pearl in his body? How can he not even pass the assessment? In the original novel, Tang San was given dual godhood directly, and didn't even need to take the Shura God assessment, but was directly replaced by his grandfather. Why do all these problems arise when it comes to me?
The majestic voice of the God of Fire echoed again from the hall: "Wang Xiaofei, you don't need to worry about the inheritance of the godhood. With your own talent and your soul power that is now at level 99, you will definitely become a god after a thousand years of cultivation."
"Then may I ask, Lord God of Fire, is the godhood at my brow intact? Is there any way to complete it? Can you help ask the Lord God of Evil?"
In fact, Xiaofei didn't care much about the godhood issue. He already had his own plan. He was a little unwilling to be ignored again and again, and he still lacked confidence in the final hurdle of becoming a god.
