Chapter 263: Going All Out

“Heaven and Earth Furnace!”

Lin Fan roared, his eyes blazing with ferocity, a touch of madness, and a hint of fearlessness.

In an instant, a radiant furnace shot forth, spinning in midair as divine dragons coiled around it. A mysterious and ancient aura spread throughout the underground world.

“I’ll make you pay the price.” At this moment, Lin Fan’s heart suddenly stilled. He tightly gripped the pitch-black arm that had pierced through his body.

“Bang!”

The Heaven and Earth Furnace instantly opened, the dragon’s mouth widened, and in a flash, Lin Fan was swallowed whole, disappearing into the depths of the furnace.

“Boom!”

“The Furnace of Heaven and Earth!”

Lin Fan roared with a ferocious glint in his eyes, a mix of madness and fearlessness.

In an instant, a radiant furnace shot out, spinning in the air, with divine dragons circling around it. A mysterious and ancient aura permeated the underground world.

“You will pay for this,” Lin Fan’s heart suddenly calmed down as he tightly grasped the dark arm that had pierced his body.

“Boom!”

The Furnace of Heaven and Earth opened and closed in an instant. The divine dragon opened its mouth, swallowing Lin Fan whole before disappearing into the furnace.

“Boom!”

In a flash, the furnace sealed shut, and the underground world fell silent once more. The golden tadpole-like characters floating in the air began to rotate around the surface of the furnace, then with a brilliant flash of golden light, they imprinted themselves onto the furnace.

“Haha!”

Lin Fan forcefully pulled out the dark arm, revealing a massive, gruesome wound in his chest. Blood gushed out like a torrent.

Lin Fan’s breathing grew increasingly labored as he barely managed to stand, staring at the dark arm floating in the air. A cold smile crept onto his lips.

The dark arm continuously struck the Furnace of Heaven and Earth, sensing the terrifying power within. The deafening crashes echoed, but the furnace remained unmoved.

Lin Fan watched the struggling dark arm with a mix of anger and amusement. Though he didn’t know the exact rank of the Furnace of Heaven and Earth, he knew it was something capable of melting even the heavens and the earth.

The dark arm erupted with a surge of ancient power, a black fist that seemed to pierce through layers of void, carrying an overwhelming force as it struck the furnace.

“Boom!”

The furnace trembled slightly, ripples forming on its surface, but they dissipated in an instant.

“Haha, don’t waste your energy. Your end is near,” Lin Fan laughed maniacally, the “Blood Sea Demon Technique” continuously repairing his wounds.

However, a mysterious force seemed to cling to his flesh, preventing his injuries from fully healing.

“Furnace of Heaven and Earth, refine for me…”

In an instant, the once calm interior of the furnace was filled with rolling dragons spewing flames. The furnace’s fire refined everything, its walls radiating light. At this moment, Lin Fan and the dark arm were engulfed in a world of fire.

“Ah…”

Lin Fan clutched his head, writhing on the ground in agony. The refining flames tortured both his body and spirit.

Everything, everything would be refined by the Furnace of Heaven and Earth—future, present, past, memories, consciousness, all of it.

The dark arm thrashed about, its flesh glowing brightly as it tried to resist the refining force. But in an instant, the black light dimmed, and its scales began to fall off.

“Boom…”

The dark arm slammed against the furnace’s walls, but in a flash, it began to bend, teetering in mid-air.

“Haha…” Lin Fan laughed wildly at the dark arm’s pitiful state. Even if he were to die, he would take this dark arm with him.

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by five million.”

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by five million.”

The dark arm struggled, its black surface erupting with bursts of ancient power, trying to resist the refining force.

“Refine for me…” At this moment, Lin Fan was fighting with everything he had.

“Boom!”

The ancient power wrapped around the dark arm shattered piece by piece, the refining force annihilating everything.

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by six million.”

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 17.”

Lin Fan’s right leg had now completely disappeared.

Even though the ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience was increasing, the destruction to Lin Fan was immense. His right leg had been completely refined by the Furnace of Heaven and Earth.

Though the Furnace of Heaven and Earth was Lin Fan’s tool for refining, it made no distinction between friend and foe. Once inside, everything would be refined together.

Thud…

The dark arm fell to the bottom of the furnace. The overwhelming refining force left it with no power to resist. One of the five fingers, constructed with supreme power, had vanished.

But the dark arm did not give up. At this moment, it turned its attention to Lin Fan. The remaining four fingers moved across the furnace’s bottom, determined to kill the one who had dragged it here.

Lin Fan’s breathing grew more rapid as his body continued to dissipate. But he knew what the arm was planning, and a fierce light shone in his eyes as he stared directly at the dark arm.

“Want to kill me? Get out of here. Don’t dream,” Lin Fan sneered.

“Maximum refinement.”

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by one billion.”

Outside the Sea Burial Demon Land.

People floated in the void, staring in disbelief at the scene below.

They never expected the Sea Burial Demon Land to collapse.

The earth sank, and the sea churned.

“What on earth is happening?” Elder Qinghuo’s face was grim. The sect’s disciples were still inside.

The head of the Demon Family had a bad feeling. The changes in the Sea Burial Demon Land had exceeded his expectations. Could something major have happened?

“My son…” The King of Qin was in agony, but the churning sea that covered the Sea Burial Demon Land hid everything.

“Help!”

At that moment, cries for help came from the turbulent sea.

“Someone’s coming out!” Elder Qinghuo’s expression changed. With a wave of his hand, the sea water, which should have been impossible to control, began to spin and eventually condensed into a single drop.

Comprehending the laws of nature, he could turn the impossible into possible.

“It’s a disciple of the Blazing Flame Sect!” Elder Qinghuo’s heart lifted when he saw the figure.

One by one, disciples from various sects emerged, and the elders of the other sects breathed sighs of relief.

The King of Qin stared intently below, searching for his son.

“What exactly happened?” The group landed and immediately began questioning. The Sea Burial Demon Land was far too strange, completely different from the records.

“Elder, it’s terrifying down there. All the senior brothers are dead,” a Blazing Flame Sect disciple who had narrowly escaped cried out. They had encountered many monsters underground, especially the fire-enshrouded giants, which were horrifying.

“Where is Senior Brother Zeng?” Elder Qinghuo asked.

“Elder, we don’t know. After we entered through the gate, we were separated. We have no idea where Senior Brother Zeng went.”

“Elder, that place isn’t a forbidden land—it’s hell. The monsters there are too terrifying.”

“Did anyone see my son? He’s not tall, quite short…” The King of Qin looked around anxiously, not finding his son among the survivors.

“I don’t know, we don’t know…” The disciples shook their heads. They never wanted to return to that place.

Being able to see the light of day again was a stroke of luck.

If it hadn’t been for the sudden collapse, they would never have made it out.

“Hahaha!”

Lin Fan violently yanked out the black giant hand. A massive, grotesque wound gaped in his chest, blood gushing forth like a torrent.

Lin Fan’s breath grew ragged. He barely stood upright, staring at the floating black arm, a cold sneer curling his lips.

The black arm relentlessly slammed against the Heaven and Earth Furnace, sensing the terrifying power within. Explosive sounds echoed, but the furnace remained completely unmoved.

Lin Fan watched the black arm’s desperate struggle, a bitter laugh rising in his heart. Though he didn’t know the exact rank of the Heaven and Earth Furnace, it was a legendary artifact capable of melting even the heavens and earth themselves.

“The Furnace of Heaven and Earth!”

Lin Fan roared with a ferocious glare, a hint of madness and fearlessness in his eyes.

In an instant, a radiant furnace shot out, spinning continuously in the air. Divine dragons danced around it, and an aura of mystery and antiquity permeated the underground world.

“You will pay for this.” At this moment, Lin Fan’s heart suddenly calmed down as he tightly grasped the pitch-black arm that had pierced his body.

“Bang!”

The Furnace of Heaven and Earth opened and closed in an instant. The divine dragon opened its mouth and swallowed Lin Fan whole, then disappeared into the furnace.

“Boom!”

In a flash, the furnace sealed shut, and the underground world fell silent once more. The golden tadpole-like characters floating in the air began to rotate, surrounding the surface of the furnace. Then, a burst of golden light surged, imprinting itself into the furnace.

“Haha!”

Lin Fan forcefully pulled out the pitch-black arm, revealing a massive, gruesome hole in his chest. Blood gushed out like a torrent.

Lin Fan’s breathing grew increasingly labored as he barely managed to stand, staring at the floating black arm with a cold smile on his lips.

The black arm continuously struck the Furnace of Heaven and Earth, sensing the terrifying power within. The deafening sounds of impact echoed, but the furnace remained unmoved.

Lin Fan watched the struggling arm with a furious laugh. Though he didn’t know the exact rank of the Furnace of Heaven and Earth, it was something that could even melt the heavens and the earth.

The black arm erupted with a dark light, unleashing an ancient force. A black fist, as if piercing through layers of void, carried an overwhelming might and slammed into the furnace.

“Boom!”

The furnace trembled slightly, ripples forming on its surface, but they dissipated in an instant.

“Haha, don’t waste your energy. Your end is near.” Lin Fan laughed maniacally as the “Blood Sea Demon Art” continuously repaired his wounds.

However, a mysterious force seemed to cling to his flesh, preventing his injuries from fully healing.

“Furnace of Heaven and Earth, refine for me…”

In an instant, the once calm interior of the furnace was filled with rolling divine dragons spewing flames. The furnace’s fire refined everything, and the walls emitted a radiant light. At this moment, Lin Fan and the black arm were engulfed in a world of fire.

“Ah…”

Lin Fan clutched his head and fell to the ground, screaming in agony. The refining flames tormented both his body and spirit.

Everything, everything would be refined by the Furnace of Heaven and Earth—future, present, past, memories, consciousness—all of it.

The black arm writhed, its flesh glowing with a dazzling light as it tried to resist the refining force. But in an instant, the dark light dimmed, and the scales began to fall off.

“Boom…”

The black arm slammed against the furnace walls, but in a flash, it began to bend, teetering in mid-air.

“Haha…” Lin Fan laughed madly at the arm’s miserable state. Even if he died, he would take this black arm with him.

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by five million.”

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by five million.”

The black arm struggled, its dark surface erupting with ancient forces to resist the refining power.

“Refine for me…” At this moment, Lin Fan was fighting with everything he had.

“Bang!”

The ancient forces entwined around the black arm shattered piece by piece, and the refining power destroyed everything.

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by six million.”

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 17.”

At this moment, Lin Fan’s right leg had completely disappeared.

Even though the experience for “Indestructible Demon Body” was increasing, the destruction to Lin Fan was immense. His right leg had been completely refined by the Furnace of Heaven and Earth.

Although the furnace was Lin Fan’s tool for refining, it made no distinction between friend and foe. Once inside, everything would be refined together.

Thud…

The black arm fell to the bottom of the furnace. The overwhelming refining force left it with no power to resist. One of the five fingers, constructed with supreme power, had vanished.

But the black arm did not give up. At this moment, it turned its focus to Lin Fan. The remaining four fingers moved across the furnace floor, intent on killing the one who had dragged it here.

Lin Fan’s breathing grew more rapid as his body continued to dissipate. But he knew what the arm was planning, and a fierce light shone in his eyes as he stared directly at the black arm.

“Want to kill me? Get out of here. Don’t dream.” Lin Fan sneered.

“Maximum refinement.”

“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by one billion.”

Outside the Sea Burial Demon Land.

Everyone floated in the void, staring in disbelief at the scene below.

They hadn’t expected the Sea Burial Demon Land to collapse.

The earth sank, and the sea churned.

“What on earth is happening?” Elder Qinghuo’s face was extremely grim. The disciples of the sect were still inside.

The head of the Demon Family had a bad feeling. The changes in the Sea Burial Demon Land had exceeded his expectations. Could something major have happened?

“My son…” The King of Qin was in deep pain, but the churning sea that covered the Sea Burial Demon Land concealed everything.

“Help!”

At that moment, cries for help came from the turbulent sea.

“Someone’s coming out.” Elder Qinghuo’s expression changed. With a wave of his hand, the sea water, which should have been impossible to retrieve, began to spin and eventually condensed into a single droplet.

Understanding the laws of nature, he could turn the impossible into possible.

“It’s a disciple of the Blazing Flame Sect.” When he saw the figure, Elder Qinghuo felt a surge of relief.

At that moment, disciples from various sects began to emerge one after another, and the elders of the other sects also breathed a sigh of relief.

The King of Qin stared intently below, searching for his son.

“What exactly happened?” The group landed and immediately began to inquire. The Sea Burial Demon Land was too bizarre; it was completely different from the records.

“Elder, it was terrifying down there. All the senior brothers are dead.” A Blazing Flame Sect disciple who had narrowly escaped cried out. They had encountered many monsters underground, especially the fire-imbued giants, which were extremely horrifying.

“Where is Senior Brother Zeng?” Elder Qinghuo asked.

“Elder, we don’t know. After we entered through the gate, we were separated. We have no idea where Senior Brother Zeng went.”

“Elder, that place wasn’t a forbidden land; it was hell. The monsters there were too terrifying.”

“Did anyone see my son? He’s not tall, quite short…” The King of Qin looked around but couldn’t find his son, his expression growing anxious.

“We don’t know, we really don’t know…” The disciples shook their heads. They never wanted to go back there again.

Being able to see the light of day again was already a stroke of immense luck.

If it hadn’t been for the sudden collapse below, they would never have made it out.

“Boom!”

The Heaven and Earth Furnace slightly trembled, ripples spreading momentarily before vanishing in an instant.

“Haha! Stop wasting your strength. Your doom has arrived,” Lin Fan laughed wildly as the Blood Sea Demon Cultivation Technique continuously repaired his wounds.

However, a mysterious force clung to his flesh, preventing his injuries from healing.

“Heaven and Earth Furnace, refine for me…”

In an instant, the previously calm furnace erupted. Divine dragons writhed inside, spewing flames that consumed everything. The furnace walls radiated brilliant light. At this moment, both Lin Fan and the black arm were engulfed in a world of fire.

“Ahh…”

Lin Fan clutched his head, writhing on the ground, howling in agony as the all-consuming flames ravaged his body and spirit.

Everything—everything—would be refined by the Heaven and Earth Furnace. The future, the present, the past, memories, consciousness, everything would be consumed.

The black arm writhed, its flesh glowing brilliantly as it tried to resist the refining force. But in an instant, the dark glow dimmed, and the scales began peeling off.

“Boom…”

The black arm pounded against the furnace walls, but in the next moment, it gradually bent, swaying precariously in midair.

“Hahaha…” Seeing the pitiful state of the black arm, Lin Fan laughed maniacally. Even if death awaited him, he would ensure the destruction of this black arm.

“Ding! Congratulations,《Indestructible Demon Body》gained 5 million experience.”

“Ding! Congratulations,《Indestructible Demon Body》gained 5 million experience.”

The black arm struggled, ancient power erupting from its surface, resisting the refining force.

“Refine it for me…” At this moment, Lin Fan had completely committed himself.

“Bang!”

The ancient force entwining the black arm shattered inch by inch beneath the refining force, destroying heaven and earth.

“Ding! Congratulations,《Indestructible Demon Body》gained 6 million experience.”

“Ding! Congratulations,《Indestructible Demon Body》leveled up to level 17.”

At this moment, Lin Fan’s right leg had completely vanished.

Though《Indestructible Demon Body》was gaining experience, the destruction it caused to Lin Fan was immense. His right leg had been completely refined by the Heaven and Earth Furnace.

Although the Heaven and Earth Furnace was Lin Fan’s artifact, it made no distinction between friend and foe. Anyone entering it would be refined together.

“Crack…”

The black arm fell to the bottom of the furnace. The overwhelming refining force left it utterly helpless. One of its mighty fingers, formed from supreme power, had vanished.

But the black arm did not give up. At this moment, it targeted Lin Fan, the remaining four fingers moving along the furnace bottom. It would kill the one who had dragged it here.

Lin Fan’s breath grew increasingly ragged, his body disintegrating, but he understood the arm’s intent. His eyes flared with murderous intent, glaring at the black arm.

“Want to kill me and escape? Don’t dream,” Lin Fan sneered.

“Maximum refining.”

“Ding! Congratulations,《Indestructible Demon Body》gained 100 million experience.”

Outside the Sea-Buried Demon Land.

Everyone floated in the air, gazing down in disbelief.

They never expected the Sea-Buried Demon Land to collapse.

The earth sank, and the sea roared.

“What exactly happened?” Elder Qinghuo’s face darkened. His sect disciples were still inside.

The head of the Demon family felt an ominous premonition. The changes occurring in the Sea-Buried Demon Land had exceeded his expectations. Could something major have happened?

“Prince…” King Qin’s heart ached terribly, yet the sea covering the Sea-Buried Demon Land churned violently, concealing everything.

“Help! Save me…”

At that moment, cries for help echoed from the turbulent sea.

“Someone’s coming out!” Elder Qinghuo’s expression changed. With a wave of his hand, the chaotic sea calmed, eventually condensing into a single droplet.

Understanding the power of rules allowed one to turn the impossible into reality.

“It’s my Flame Sect disciple.” Seeing the figure, Elder Qinghuo’s expression brightened.

At this moment, more disciples emerged one after another. Elders from the other major sects also relaxed slightly.

King Qin stared intently below, searching desperately for his son.

“What happened exactly?” Everyone landed and immediately asked. The Sea-Buried Demon Land was too strange—it was nothing like the records described.

“Elder, it’s too terrifying down there. Our seniors are all dead.” A surviving Flame Sect disciple cried out. They had encountered many monsters underground, especially the flame-covered giant, which was absolutely horrifying.

“Where is Senior Zeng?” Elder Qinghuo asked at this point.

“Elder, we don’t know either. After entering through the entrance, we got separated. We don’t know where Senior Zeng went.”

“Elder, that place below isn’t a forbidden land—it’s hell. The monsters there are too terrifying.”

“Did anyone see my son? Not very tall, short…” King Qin searched through the crowd but couldn’t find his prince, his face growing anxious.

“We don’t know either… We don’t know…” One disciple after another shook their heads. None of them ever wanted to return there.

Surviving and seeing the light of day again was already a miracle beyond miracles.

If not for the sudden collapse below, they would never have escaped.
