Fall: Rebirth

"I think, apart from the ghost fire of the underworld, there should be no more evil fire than this?" Hill fiddled with a small grass in his hand thoughtfully, and said this casually with a hint of certainty.

However, just as Hill finished speaking, a cold but extremely firm voice suddenly sounded: "Yes."

It was just a simple word, but it was like a bolt from the blue, exploding in everyone's ears.

The voice seemed to come from the Netherworld, carrying with it a bone-chilling chill and endless majesty that made everyone present tremble in their hearts.

Hill had never expected Ye You to respond so decisively and without hesitation. His relaxed expression froze instantly, and a look of astonishment flashed across his eyes. Then, as if waking up from a dream, he quickly turned his head and cast his gaze straight in the direction of Ye You.

At this moment, Hill's heart was like a storm, filled with doubts and extremely strong curiosity. He stared at the front with wide eyes, his chest heaving violently, anxious to find out what kind of fire existed that could surpass the ghost fire of the underworld, and its evil degree was beyond imagination!

At this moment, Chu Heng and Ling Han, who were standing on one side, seemed to be attracted by some indescribable magical power. They simultaneously cast their eyes full of strong curiosity and earnest expectation on Ye You.

They were seen leaning forward slightly, looking impatient as if they wanted to immediately learn from Ye You the answer to the mysterious riddle hidden in the endless dark abyss.

In an instant, the whole scene was plunged into an extremely tense atmosphere. The air around seemed to solidify, and it was so heavy that people could hardly breathe.

Finally, as everyone's heartbeats quickened and they dared not breathe, their focused gazes turned into those of a still pool of water. Suddenly, without any warning, Ye You's eyes, which had been calm and undisturbed, suddenly changed and became extremely sharp in an instant, like two razor-sharp blades, emitting cold light!

Then, she spoke slowly and in an almost cold and ruthless tone: "Nine Nether Devil Flame."

Although there are only four concise words, they seem to contain boundless and vast pressure, as well as unfathomable and mysterious power.

The moment these four words floated into the ears of everyone present, they were all struck by lightning, stunned, as if their souls had suffered an unprecedented strong shock at this moment!

Yan Luo was particularly excited, and even the tone of his voice rose a few notches when he spoke: "Nine Nether Devil Flame?"

Immediately afterwards, the rest of the people followed suit, and everyone's face showed different expressions.

Some people are full of doubts, as if they are trapped in a thick fog; some people show deep fear, just like a frightened bird.

“It sounds like it’s related to the demon clan.” Ling Han deliberately lowered his voice and whispered this sentence as softly as the whisper of a mosquito or fly.

Obviously, he knew very little about the legendary demonic flame, but just from its name he could vaguely sense the terrifying aura hidden in it, like a giant beast lurking in the darkness, which was chilling.

In response to Ling Han's confusion, Ye You nodded calmly, as if a breeze was blowing across the lake: "That's right."

These two short words were like a heavy hammer hitting Ling Han's heart. He raised his head abruptly and stared at Ye You, who seemed cold and heartless.

Ye You seemed to be able to see through Ling Han’s thoughts, so he answered slowly: “The Nine Nether Devil Flame was originally the mount of the Devil God, owned by the Devil Dragon.”

When these words were spoken, everyone was dumbfounded, with expressions of disbelief on their faces, as if they were struck by a bolt of thunder.

"I just said it casually, I didn't expect it to be true." Ling Han frowned slightly and muttered softly, his eyes full of surprise, as if he had seen the most incredible thing in the world.

Chu Heng frowned slightly, his eyes fixed on Ling Han like sharp arrows. After a moment, his sight suddenly turned and headed straight towards Ye You. He asked in a slightly tense voice, "God, what kind of power does this blaze contain?"

When Ling Han heard Chu Heng's words, a burning fire of curiosity and eager anticipation rose in his heart. He raised his head quickly and stared at Ye You without blinking. The blazing light in his eyes was like the brightest and most dazzling star in the night sky, dazzling and dazzling.

Ye You raised her head slightly, gazing into the vast, boundless, and unfathomable dark night sky. Her frosty yet extremely beautiful eyes were like two bottomless cold pools, clearly reflecting the brilliant sparkling stars in the sky.

At this moment, she raised her arms slightly, and her loose black robe fluttered in the wind. Then, she put her hands behind her back very naturally, and she seemed to be completely immersed in endless thoughts, as if she had suddenly fallen into a bottomless abyss of meditation.

The children on the side were full of anticipation, but out of awe for Ye You, none of them dared to ask a single question. They could only stare at Ye You's every move silently, not even daring to blink, for fear of missing even the slightest detail.

There was a gleam of curiosity in their eyes, as if they were trying to find some mysterious answer through Ye You's figure.

After a while, Ye You finally turned around slowly. Every movement she made seemed so gentle and decisive, without any sense of dragging her feet.

She first gently lifted up a corner of her wide black robe, and then sat down casually as if nothing had happened.

However, what was different from the past was that this time she did not sit upright with her legs crossed as usual to enter a state of cultivation; instead, she stretched out one leg in an unusually casual manner and used her knee to support the elbow of the other arm firmly. This posture looked both relaxed and at ease, yet also elegant and charming in a unique way.

After sitting firmly, Ye You raised his eyes slightly, blinked a few times, and spoke in a calm tone with a hint of subtle solemnity, "It is rumored that the Nine Nether Demon Flame is a very evil fire. The properties of this flame are extreme. It not only includes destructive, devouring and corrosive properties, but also has the ability to devour the surrounding light, causing the surrounding environment to instantly fall into darkness. What's more, it can burn all tangible objects in the world to ashes, and even the most fragile soul can hardly escape the fate of being burned by it."

Hearing this, Chu Heng couldn't help but gasp, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his whole body trembled violently, and his face was instantly filled with a complex expression of astonishment and suspicion. He widened his eyes and was completely dumbfounded.

Yan Luo, who was standing by, also had an expression of disbelief on his face. His lips trembled slightly as he whispered softly, "Such a terrifying flame..."

With a glimmer of hope, Hill fixed his gaze on Ye You, and asked impatiently, "God, can this terrifying flame be extinguished by water control?"

There was a gleam of anticipation in his eyes, like the brightest stars in the night sky, and he was expecting Ye You to give a positive answer.

Ye You stared at Hill's expectant face. Although he was reluctant to break his fantasy, he finally shook his head slowly.

This simple action was like a basin of cold water poured on Hill's burning heart, causing his originally high spirits to instantly plummet to the bottom. A strong sense of loss surged into his heart, drowning him like a tide.

Looking at Hill's face full of loneliness and frustration, Chu Heng, Ling Han and Yan Luo couldn't help but look at each other. However, no one dared to break the suffocating silence.

After hesitating for a moment, Ling Han slowly reached out his hand and gently patted Xi'er's shoulder, trying to comfort him. At the same time, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, as if he wanted to tell Xi'er in this way that he didn't need to worry too much.

Ye You on the side always maintained a frosty expression, her eyes were as deep and cold as the water in a cold pond, which made people shudder.

She opened her lips slightly, and her tone was like the biting cold wind in the cold winter, and she said coldly: "If you try to use mere ordinary water to extinguish the blazing Nine Nether Devil Flame, I am afraid that only your master can have such a great ability. Even if it is replaced by those gods at the upper god level, if they want to use the water control technique to deal with this extremely terrifying Nine Nether Devil Flame, they will only be helpless and will not be able to compete with it at all."

Although these words sounded extremely cruel and ruthless, Ye You knew very well in his heart that if these young children who were inexperienced in the world were not allowed to deeply understand how powerful the enemy was, they would most likely make big mistakes because of their underestimation of the enemy, thus causing an unmanageable tragic disaster.

"In that case... this flame is truly amazing." Ling Han lowered his head and frowned slightly, muttering in a serious tone. His brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about the great power and danger hidden behind this mysterious flame.

Yan Luo's beautiful eyebrows also wrinkled slightly, and her face, which originally looked gentle as water, became unusually serious at this moment. She stared at Ling Han who was speaking quietly, and her eyes revealed deep worry and thought.

"Your Majesty, what color is this flame?" At this moment, Chu Heng, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke out like thunder. His voice was as loud as a bell, deafening and extremely clear. In a moment, it poured into the ears of everyone present like a tide, abruptly cutting off everyone's flying thoughts.

In an instant, all eyes were focused on Ye You.

But Ye You slowly pulled her jade hands away from her knees, and then stood up gracefully. She first gently trembled her wide sleeves, then naturally put her slender hands behind her back, and took two steps forward. Her eyes seemed to penetrate the long river of time, gazing at a mysterious place that was far away, boundless, and difficult to guess.

At this moment, the whole atmosphere suddenly became silent, and everything was quiet, with only the rustling sound caused by the breeze gently touching the branches and leaves.

Finally, Ye You said calmly: "The color of this fire is a bottomless dark purple hue. When it burns fiercely, it will continuously emit thick black fog that is almost suffocating. And these black fogs contain extremely powerful and mysterious magic. They have a strong pressure and can easily suppress or even completely destroy all living things around them."

"If you accidentally get touched by such a terrifying flame, won't you be swallowed up instantly?" Ling Han's voice trembled slightly, like a fallen leaf in the wind, and crystal clear beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Ye You gently shook his head, his expression indifferent, his voice as steady as a calm lake, and slowly said: "If it is only slightly contaminated, there may still be a glimmer of hope. However, once it is completely covered, even a god will find it difficult to escape the bloody mouth of this fire demon."

"Oh my God! This is simply horrifying!" Yan Luo's face was full of astonishment, his eyes were wide open like bells, and his lips opened uncontrollably.

At this moment, she couldn't help but recall the raging fire she had experienced in her childhood. The scene at that time was like a nightmare, which shocked her terribly. But today, she just learned that there are so many flames in the world that are more terrifying than that fire, which undoubtedly greatly shocked and refreshed her original cognition.

In a moment, Yan Luo's face turned as pale as paper, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably, like a candle in the wind, about to fall.

"Yan Luo, are you okay?" Chu Heng saw beads of sweat oozing from Yan Luo's forehead, and hurriedly reached out to grab her arm, asking with concern. His eyes seemed like the warm sun in spring, warm and gentle.

Sensing Chu Heng's concern, Yan Luo turned her head slightly. After her eyes met Chu Heng's, she forced a smile that was uglier than crying, shook her head gently, and said softly, "I'm fine."

Seeing that Yan Luo seemed a little nervous, Ye You comforted him softly, "Don't worry, the Nine Nether Demon Flame has been hiding in the six realms since the Demon Dragon disappeared. It will not pose a threat to us for the time being."

Hearing this, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's great." Chu Heng exhaled deeply, secretly rejoicing in his heart. After all, his parents died tragically under some mysterious fire, and he had a deep impression of the endless fear and power contained in this power, like a brand engraved deep in his soul that could never be erased.
