System: Replicating The Heavens

Chapter 169 Ch 169: Fire Demons



Alex arrived in front of the metal slate and looked at it, only to find that it had already lost all signs of life, turning into an ordinary metal slate. But to be safe, Alex picked up a rock from the ground and threw it at the metal slate.

Seeing that there were no signs of activity, he then carefully made contact with the metal slate and was surprised to discover that this mysterious metal slate was actually rather cold.

Alex knew that the boundless sea of fire earlier had been started by it and, according to his deduction; this metal slate should have been extremely hot.

At this point, he scrutinized the metal slate and saw that there was a carving of a sun's image on it, and other than that there was nothing else.

"I am not sure what it is, but there seemed to be an immense strength locked inside it and I think it seems to be an item from a distant past. It seems to be some kind of key to an expert's inheritance..."

Alex thought in his heart as he nodded and looked at the metal slate.

Well, although he doesn't know, it does not mean that the system also doesn't know anything.

[Name: Burning Sun Metal Slate.

Item: Key of Scarlet Flame Cave (1/2).

Detail: In the previous era, the Scarlet Flame Emperor was a Celestial River Stage martial warrior and was the ruler of the Scarlet Flame Empire that is now divided into three parts called Three Cultivation Lands. Maybe, the Scarlet Flame Emperor knew he was about to die facing the calamity, he left behind his inheritance and made two keys. One of them is the item with the Burning Sun Metal Slate and another one is Scarlet Flame Saber Technique.

Only a person who possesses the Burning Sun Metal Slate and has cultivated the Scarlet Flame Saber Technique could enter the Scarlet Flame Cave and obtain the inheritance left behind by the Scarlet Flame Emperor.

Note: When the Burning Sun Metal senses a person who has practiced at least two volumes of Scarlet Flame Saber Technique nearby, it'll start reacting and will attract the attention of that person.]

Alex took a deep breath when he saw the description of the Metal Slate. He didn't expect it to be the key to the Inheritance of a person from the previous era. In the previous era, the three Cultivation Lands were actually one and were called Scarlet Flame Empire which was ruled by the Scarlet Flame Emperor who was a Celestial River Stage martial warrior.

Alex currently has no idea how powerful a Celestial River Stage martial warrior actually is. He even heard of this cultivation stage for the very first time. He also doesn't know who is stronger between Celestial River Stage martial warrior and Origin Martial God Stage martial warrior.

Well, at least Alex got very important information here. The first one is that the three cultivation lands used to be one in the previous era. The second one is that a calamity had befallen that destroyed the Scarlet Flame Empire into three cultivation lands and forced the Scarlet Flame Emperor to leave behind his legacy before his death.

And if Alex wants to obtain more information, he needs to at least make it to the Scarlet Flame Cave.

Taking a deep breath, Alex kept the Burning Sun Metal Slate in his spatial ring and took a deep breath. It is time to look for the Third Volume of the Scarlet Flame Saber Technique.

Alex seemed to have lost his interest in the Scarlet Flame Saber Technique after looking at the attribute panel of his master, Valerio Piroddi. His interest was once again boosted.

He also understood that it was because he, who has practiced the two volumes of Scarlet Flame Saber Technique, has come here that the Burning Sun Metal Slate reacted before, causing the previous phenomenon.

Alex started to look for Volume 3 of Scarlet Flame Saber Technique everywhere in Scarlet Flame Valley. After about a day, he passed through the Burning Sky Plain and arrived at a location called Barren Land Flames. This Scarlet Flame Valley seemed to be very big which surprised Alex a lot.

Not long after he entered the Barren Land of Flames, intense flames assaulted him with a bang, and it was accompanied by a wave of strange cries.

"What the hell?"

Alex was shocked at first and immediately came back to his senses. Then he saw many red figures rushing at him. These red figures were actually like humans, except for the fact that their body was red, their head was burning with flames, they had two red horns and red eyes, and strange pattern on their bodies.

[Name: Fire Demons.

Detail: Demons born from flames. They can't live on the land without flame. Flames are the essence of their life. The more flame there is, the stronger Fire Demons will be.]

"Fire Demons?" Alex was surprised. He didn't expect to come across Flame Devils.

Nevertheless, it doesn't matter.

"They're just a bunch of little fire demons. What's there to be surprised about?"

Han Feng smashed his fist into the ground, causing the ground to rumble and the earth to expand like ripples.

The Fire Demons were very weak, in the face of Alex's attack, they were instantly reduced to ashes.

After that, Alex continued walking forward. As he walked, along with the emerging flame and strange cries, many fire demons once again appeared in front of him. This time, there were stronger fire demons and according to the system, they were called Fire Demon Generals.

But even so, it wasn't difficult for Alex to deal with them. But the number of Fire Demon Generals wasn't small. There were dozens of them, and there were also hundreds of Fire Demons. In just a short period of time, he was entangled with Fire Demons and it took them a long time to get rid of them.

He had just dealt with a group of Fire Demons and Fire Demon Generals when the third wave of Fire Demons attacked again.

If the previous Fire Demons were mainly like cannon fodders and the Fire Demon Generals were the main forces. Then this time, most of the Fire Demon Generals were canon fodders and a new group of Fire Demon Great Generals appeared.

Alex could only continue fighting. He tried to communicate with Light Devouring Beast to let it devour them, but he discovered that the Light Devouring Beast was sleeping after devouring so much fire. He could only fight himself.

The fight continued for more than two hours. Endless Fire Demon Generals and Fire Demon Great Generals attacked madly. Up until now, more than a thousand Fire Demon Generals had died in the hands of Alex.

However, not only did the number of Fire Demon Generals attacking not decrease, but it also increased!

"Damn it, why are there so many of them!"

Alex was annoyed. At this moment, he'd already consumed one-third of his Chaos Energy. One-third of the Chaos Energy wasn't that easy to recover from!

Alex's continued constantly dealing with the Fire Demon Generals and Fire Demon Great Generals. These two types of fire demons were not that strong. Ordinary Fire Demons were at the Golden Core Stage, Fire Demon Generals were at the Spirit Origin Stage, and Fire Demon Great Generals were at the Origin Sea Stage.

Alex was able to easily deal with them. It is just that their numbers were simply too large.

Along with a stern shout, Alex threw out a punch and shattered the Fire Demon Great General's fist.

After an hour of arduous battle, he finally dealt with the fire demon horde.

After dealing with them, Alex continued moving forward. After another half hour, Alex arrived in front of a blood-red sea of fire with a radius of nearly 100 meters. Above the sea of fire, a blood-red lotus bloomed.

A blood-red halo continuously rippled out.

"Fiery Raging Lotus!"

Alex was surprised when he suddenly spotted this treasure. According to the knowledge of alchemists that he has replicated, Fiery Ragin Lotus is a Rank 8 Spirit Herb and is the main ingredient to refine a pill called Crimson Spirit Pill which can help a peak Heaven Completion Stage martial warrior breakthrough to Crystal Transformation Stage immediately.

Alex immediately became careful. Since there were so many fire demons previously, there is bound to be a stronger fire demon here.

Well, the surprising thing was that he suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. It was as if something very related was hidden somewhere here.

Alex didn't know why and from where this feeling was coming. After calming down his heart, when Alex carefully sensed, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Third Volume of Scarlet Flame Saber Technique is hidden somewhere here!"

Alex smiled and was ready to step forward.

However, at this time, a dense killing intent enveloped his body all of a sudden. At the same time, the sea of fire started boiling like a lava sea. Along with a strange cry, three figures jumped out of the sea of fire.

Alex looked at this figure and an attribute panel appeared in front of him.

[Name: Fire Demon Lord.

Cultivation: Heavenly Completion Stage.

Skills: Flame Devil Fist, Flame Devil Roar, Flame Control,...]
