I Become a Martial Arts God in the Chaotic Demon World-Chapter 346 - He Is Sick

"Han Zheng, oh Han Zheng, you really are like an unrelenting spirit."

Bu Tiange slightly raised an eyebrow, "How about this, we both take a step back? You've got the Heavenly Soldier, so it's yours. I just want two things, the Thousand Mechanism Transformation and Fang Tieyun. I've been under the Black Mountain Demon King's command for so long; I owe him a favor that must be repaid. As for Fang Tieyun, well, I promised to take him out of Refining Blade. A man's got to keep his word. I'll take him with me; if I leave him here, that old geezer Cen Xingzi is sure to kill him. Once Fang Tieyun deactivates the Myriad Soldiers Formation, you'll have no casualties. Wouldn't it be great if everyone's happy?"

Han Zheng slightly frowned.

Previously, he had always thought of Bu Tiange as a close confidant of someone like the Black Mountain Demon, but now it didn't seem to be the case. Luo Dao person was the true confidant of the Black Mountain Demon. Before the Black Mountain Demon swept through the Southern Mountain, he had already begun plotting on behalf of the Black Mountain Demon.

But Bu Tiange had only joined the Black Mountain Demon twelve years ago. Initially, he was under a Martial World assassination order by Qingming Sword Pavilion, already seriously injured. It must have been at that time that he sought refuge under the Black Mountain Demon and had been healing since.

The Black Mountain Demon, if nothing else, was exceptionally skilled at hiding his tracks. Even when Chen Baxian had just repelled the Black Mountain Demon, he had wanted to kick the demon while he was down, to find him and eradicate him completely. But after years of effort without any clue, it was exhausting and fruitless, eventually forcing him to give up.

So, under the Black Mountain Demon's command, Bu Tiange hardly had to worry about Qingming Sword Pavilion's pursuit. He had enjoyed twelve years of the Black Mountain Demon's protection, but that didn't mean he was a trusted confidant of the Black Mountain Demon.

Listening to Bu Tiange now, he didn't see himself as a henchman of the Black Mountain Demon either, at most he just owed the other a favor.

Bu Tiange, with the Greedy Wolf Life Chart, may have been powerful, but he was also a bit madcap. He even dared to plot against his own Yang God Realm master; how could he possibly serve as a subordinate to the Black Mountain Demon?

After a moment's reflection, Han Zheng said firmly, "You can take Fang Tieyun, but you can't have the Thousand Mechanism Transformation."

To tell the truth, Han Zheng didn't harbor any ill feelings towards Fang Tieyun. Even though he chose to collude with the Black Mountain Demon, in reality, he was only colluding with Bu Tiange. With talent and perseverance, hardworking and diligent, yet fate dealt him such unfair treatment, plus becoming Qiao Anze's stepping stone. Han Zheng wouldn't be able to stand it either.

Furthermore, the Demon Sword in Han Zheng's hands was, strictly speaking, forged by Fang Tieyun. Having used another's weapon, Han Zheng didn't want to push him to a dead end.

But the Thousand Mechanism Transformation absolutely couldn't fall into the hands of Bu Tiange. In the hands of Refining Blade, it was just a Divine Weapon for self-protection. However, if it ended up with the Black Mountain Demon, then the trouble would indeed be great.

Bu Tiange rubbed his head, looking like he had a headache.

"My master always said I was unteachable; but it seems to me that you, Han Zheng, are the truly stubborn one. I didn't want to get entangled with you, but now it looks like we'll have to fight after all. What a waste of time."

As his words fell, Bu Tiange's sword flashed with a dazzling edge as it cut through, even parting the Earth Vein Fire in its path.

And Han Zheng, wielding the Demon Sword, barely opened a slit in the demonic eye, from which surged powerful and frightening Demonic Qi.

Sword clashed against sword, and a powerful wave of energy immediately dispersed around them. But after just one exchange, both turned their attention to their surroundings.

Some of the Array Patterns inside the Heavenly Flame Melting Sun Furnace had been destroyed by their fight.

Instantly, the surging flames around them erupted, an overwhelming force sweeping through, making them feel as if they were inside an exploding bomb—extremely dangerous.

"Darn it! The core array hasn't been activated yet, and the external array is already out of control."

Bu Tiange, pointing at Han Zheng, reproached, "This is all because of you! At your age, how can you be so rash? Is this a place to start a fight?"

"Seems like you were the one who started it, though?"

"With things as they are now, does it matter who started it?"

Han Zheng was slightly at a loss for words.

His previous enemies included the ruthless, the sinister, and the cunning.

Only Bu Tiange was different.

He was sick. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Watching Bu Tiange anxiously pacing, Han Zheng asked in surprise, "Are you that afraid of dying?"

Bu Tiange retorted irritably, "What a stupid question, aren't you scared? There are so many fascinating things in this world, and I, for one, haven't lived enough yet.

Let's call a temporary ceasefire. Let's not worry about fighting over the Thousand Mechanism Transformation for now and head straight to the core of the Furnace of Heavenly Fire and Sun Fusion to activate the array, how about that?"

Han Zheng nodded his head.

Bu Tiange didn't want to die, and of course, Han Zheng didn't want to die either.

Besides, to tell the truth, Bu Tiange's strength was somewhat terrifying; even now, with Han Zheng holding the Demon Sword, he was actually no match for the other party.

That Demon Sword devoured blood and life force quite severely, and it also heavily eroded his mental state.

After using it twice in succession, Han Zheng already felt he was almost unable to control the Demon Sword. If he continued to use it, he feared a backlash was imminent.

However, Han Zheng had remained outwardly calm, so Bu Tiange had thought he had everything under control.

Seeing this, Bu Tiange immediately started searching around in the labyrinth-like Furnace of Heavenly Fire and Sun Fusion, with Han Zheng following behind him.

Although Bu Tiange said to stop fighting for now, Han Zheng didn't let his guard down.

Yet Bu Tiange seemed very relaxed, apparently not afraid at all of Han Zheng attacking him from behind.

At this moment, the Earth Fire Power within the Furnace of Heavenly Fire and Sun Fusion became increasingly blazing, and Bu Tiange's complexion was already extremely red.

Even the Fire-Resistant Gold Silk Armor seemed unable to withstand this level of scorching heat.

Although Han Zheng had the Demon Sword to protect his body, the power of that sword could only ensure a stable environment within three inches around him.

It could be said that if Han Zheng made any significant movements at this moment, he would be scorched by the Earth Fire Power.

After passing through layer after layer of arrays, the two finally arrived at the core of the Furnace of Heavenly Fire and Sun Fusion.

However, upon seeing the sight there, Bu Tiange stood frozen, and after a long pause, a single word escaped his lips, "Shit!"

They saw that the core of the furnace's array was a fist-sized red gemstone, engraved with circle after circle of array patterns.

Normally, all that was needed was to activate that array.

But the problem was that at this moment, the dense Earth Fire Essence around the array had already vaguely formed into a fire dragon coiling around it.

To activate the array, it would be necessary to break through this fire dragon.

The fire dragon formed from the Earth Fire Essence was likely not put there deliberately by Refining Blade; it was an accident.

Normally the Furnace of Heavenly Fire and Sun Fusion was stable, so the core array was always in a dormant state to save power.

But this place was, after all, the core of the Earth Vein Fire, where the Earth Vein Fire surged up from underground without end, and the most refined part of it would remain here.

Over time, it had formed this fire dragon.

Over the years, Refining Blade had not used the Furnace of Heavenly Fire and Sun Fusion to forge Divine Weapons again, so naturally, no one had ventured to this core area of the furnace, nor were they aware of the changes here.

Fang Tieyun, although a core disciple of Refining Blade, only knew a general idea of the situation and hadn't personally come down here either.

Bu Tiange sensed the power of this fire dragon, his expression changing slightly.

With his current strength, it was unlikely he could dispel this fire dragon.

Han Zheng, on the other hand, was not panicking; in fact, he never did panic before.

If things truly became desperate, Han Zheng would use the Stealing Heaven Bow to directly explode the Furnace of Heavenly Fire and Sun Fusion, seeking a glimmer of survival.

Of course, this was a last resort; heaven knows what consequences that arrow would bring when shot.

"Hey, how about we join forces? Let's break through this fire dragon together first, and then discuss the rest," Bu Tiange suddenly looked at Han Zheng.

Han Zheng shook his head and said, "Not so great. First, my cultivation isn't enough, and even together, we might not be able to break through this fire dragon.

Second, you're stronger than I am. Once you're out of trouble, you'll still take the Thousand Mechanism Transformation, and then we'll have to fight to the death.

It's better if we die together here, to end it all.

Besides, Fang Tieyun outside has limited power and cannot control the Myriad Soldiers Formation for too long.

This way, only the two of us will die, the crisis will be averted, and it will be quite a bargain."
