Chapter 4480

Suddenly, the darkness in the inner hall was completely dispelled, replaced by a huge light.

The entire inner hall became bright and magnificent.

Zhuo Wen was finally able to clearly see that at the top of the stairs in front of him was a throne formed by the fusion of countless weapons.

On the throne, a stalwart middle-aged man sat lazily, and his gaze was indifferent as he looked down at Zhuo Wen who was below him …

"Greetings, Old Sect Master!"

The pair of male and female attendants elegantly put down the lanterns in their hands, then knelt on the ground and bowed to the middle-aged man on the throne.

The middle-aged man supported his face with his right hand and nodded lightly. "You may leave first!"

The pair bowed again, then left the main hall with the lanterns.

In an instant, only Zhuowen and the middle-aged man were left in the magnificent main hall, facing each other from afar.

The middle-aged man before him was the Purple Heaven Sacred Ground's Old Sect Master, Shen Yizhi, the person with the highest authority in the Purple Heaven Sacred Ground.

"Zhuowen, Anxi told me about you!

This is the first time we met, and your temperament is not bad! "

Finally, Shen Yizhi spoke slowly. His voice was steady, but it was like thunder that made one unable to calm down.

Zhuowen cupped his hands at Shen Yizhi and said, "Old Sect Master, you're too polite!

Actually, I'm very curious. How did you know that I entered the Purple Heaven Sacred Ground? "

Shen Yizhi's lips curled up slightly. He bent his finger and tapped Zhuowen's arm. "Elder Anxi's imprint told me!"

Realization dawned on Zhuowen. It seemed that Shen Yizhi had already sensed him when he passed by the Divine Firmament Peak earlier.

"Since Old Sect Master knows why I'm here, you should also know that I'm here to retrieve the Heaven and Earth Furnace for Elder Anxi, right?" Zhuowen said.

Shen Yizhi nodded. Suddenly, he waved his sleeves lightly. Instantly, the temperature of the entire inner hall skyrocketed, reaching an extremely terrifying level.

Above the Inner Hall, endless flames surged and rolled. It was like a sea of fire that could overturn the heavens and the earth, raging and rolling continuously.

In the center of the rolling sea of fire, a huge furnace was faintly discernible.

A terrifying pressure came crashing down, causing the entire inner hall to be under a terrifying pressure.

Zhuowen looked up and clicked his tongue in amazement. He secretly lamented that this was indeed a divine tool at the Fourth Heavenly Layer. Just the pressure alone was so powerful.

"Old Sect Master, according to your agreement with Senior Anxi, I should be able to take away the Heaven and Earth Smelt now, right?"

Zhuowen's gaze did not linger on the Heaven and Earth Smelt for too long. Instead, he looked at the old Grandmaster on the throne and said calmly.

Shen Yizhi nodded inwardly. The temperament and bearing that Zhuowen had displayed just now had made him think highly of him.

However, the strength of this lad was simply way too weak. Could he really protect the Heaven and Earth Smelt?

"You have to know that there are many people who are eyeing the Heaven and Earth Furnace covetously. There are even Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth experts!

With your strength, you simply can't walk out of the Purple Chestnut Domain! "Shen Yizhi pondered for a moment before continuing.

Zhuowen said calmly, "Don't worry, Old Sect Master. Since Senior Anxi is willing to entrust me to take away the Heaven and Earth Smelt, my strength has been recognized by her!

As long as the Heaven and Earth Smelt is in my hands, I can safely bring it to Senior Anxi! "

Shen Yizhi frowned slightly. He felt that Zhuowen's words were too confident.

After all, Zhuowen's cultivation was only at the mid-stage Cosmic Dharma Phase. No matter how heaven-defying he was, it was already terrifying that he could fight against an early-stage Cosmic Dharma Phase. Against an Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, he was just trash.

He really couldn't figure out who gave this lad the courage to do so.

Shen Yizhi sat on the throne and quietly looked at Zhuowen. However, he did not speak, nor did he show any signs of handing over the Heaven and Earth Smelt to Zhuowen.

Zhuowen frowned slightly and said, "Old Sect Master, you still don't trust me?"

Shen Yizhi pondered for a moment and said, "I naturally trust the person sent by Anxi, but I don't trust your strength!

Your cultivation is simply too weak!

You can go back and ask Anxi to send someone stronger! "

Zhuowen's expression was calm as he said in a low voice, "In other words, if I prove my strength, you can hand over the Heaven and Earth Smelt to me?"

Shen Yizhi raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhuowen with interest. He did not expect that this young man before him would not give up.

"You can say that!" Shen Yizhi smiled faintly.

"Old Sect Master, in your opinion, how should I prove my strength to you?" Zhuowen still asked calmly.

Shen Yizhi was becoming more and more interested in this young man before him. This lad was simply too calm and composed. Could it be that he was really so confident in his own strength?

Whoosh!

Shen Yizhi waved his right sleeve, and a huge opening appeared in the air in front of the throne.

Zhuo Wen raised his head to look. Through this opening, he saw a small, lush world inside. Smoke lingered in the air, and mountain ranges stacked upon one another.

"This small world was created by me. All the living beings that I have captured all these years live in it!

There are giant beasts with bodies of tens of thousands of feet, human cultivators like you, and many other races of all shapes and sizes.

There is no lack of experts at the Defying Ancient Starlight Realm. "

Shen Yizhi lightly tapped the armrest of the throne and continued, "In this small world, there are a total of seven experts at the peak of the Defying Ancient Starlight Realm!

They are the rulers of this small world.

If you can survive in this small world for a month,

Then I will acknowledge your strength! "

Zhuowen shook his head, causing Shen Yizhi to frown.

"You're not willing?" Shen Yizhi said unhappily.

"No, what I mean is!

A month is too long, I can't wait!

Give me a day, and I'll bring you the heads of the seven experts at the peak of the Ancient Defying Starlight. "Zhuo Wen said indifferently.

Shen Yizhi's gaze sharpened as he stared at Zhuowen and asked solemnly, "Are you serious?"

"Of course!

If I can't take the heads of those seven experts in a day, I won't take the Heaven and Earth Furnace! "Zhuowen said calmly.

Shen Yizhi was silent for a moment. His eyes shone brightly as he stared at Zhuowen.

Zhuowen also looked at Shen Yizhi fearlessly.

"Good!

No matter how strong you are, your courage is something I've never seen before. I'll give you this chance, and I hope you'll succeed. "Shen Yizhi suddenly shouted, and a deep smile appeared on his face.

Zhuowen cupped his fists towards Shen Yizhi and then stepped out with his right foot. Like a sharp arrow, he shot towards the opening in front of the throne.

When Zhuowen's figure completely disappeared into the opening, Shen Yizhi was still sitting on the throne. His right hand tapped the armrest, and the opening instantly closed.

"Killing seven experts at the peak of the Defying Ancient Starlight Realm in a day?

This kid is still too young and arrogant! "

Shen Yizhi shook his head. He didn't need to look to know that Zhuowen's boasting was impossible to achieve.

Not to mention Zhuowen's strength, just the small world he had created was so vast that it wasn't any weaker than a high-level world.

And the seven experts at the peak of the Defying Ancient Starlight were located in seven different places. Some of them were even on the opposite edge of the Defying Ancient Starlight. No matter how fast this kid was, it was impossible for him to travel to all seven places in a day.

"I will open it again in a day. At that time, the expression on this kid's face will definitely be very interesting!" Shen Yizhi's faint voice reverberated throughout the inner palace …
