Chapter 180: Three Thousand Burning me vs Golden Crow''s Divine me


    --- Chapter 177 ---


    Baek Ain entered the Star Region with Lan Rou on the lead, observing the confined space amusingly.


    Star Region is a remarkable space with a nearly endless supply of Star Energy, but this ce was too unstable. One could literally see void cracks one after another in this ce.


    Since this ce looks abandoned and has poor maintenance, the Three Thousand Burning me is bound to go berserk and ransack everything in this ce sooner orter.


    Aih, the wonder of Dou Saint never ceases to surprise Baek Ain.


    But again, some people never take responsibility for their power.


    <em>With great poweres great responsibility.</em>


    Although Baek Ain severely doubts this quote, Uncle Ben''s words aren''t really incorrect.


    "Xuan Yi, have you ever met the Pill Tower Ancestor?" Baek Ain suddenly asked as he recalled a prominent character behind this faction.


    Xuan Yi nodded and replied, "I did meet him once."


    "But that was a long time ago."


    "I assumed he had already taken another identity."


    "Another identity?" Qing Lin tilted her head in confusion.


    Xuan Yi smiled slightly and exined, "Pill Tower Ancestor is the founder of our Pill Tower. Before his death, He refined a strange medicine pill that absorbed a trace of his spirit."


    "After that, the pill transformed into a new sentient being. Guarding the Pill Tower every time a disaster struck."


    "The Ancestor left from time and time, roaming the world. His favorite thing to do is to find pregnant women whose babies experienced unfortunate events and lost their lives."


    "Of course, his target wasn''t the pregnant women, but the babies themselves."


    "After finding a baby who has died early, the Ancestor will enter the pregnant woman''s womb using a special method to turn into an ordinary baby."


    "He will be born, grow, and live as another person until that body finally dies. Only then will he leave, and the Ancestor described it as experiencing life."


    "Eh... T-That''s out of my expectation." Qing Linmented in disbelief.


    "To rece other children like that."


    Xuan Yi shook her head and added, "It might sound weird, but every time the Ancestor does this. The family he reincarnated into will strike fortune for three if not ten generations."


    "Not to mention Ancestor always ensures his new parents'' happiness while sealing his memory as the Pill Tower Ancestor."


    "He once said, <em>Being filial is one way to yield good karma.</em>"


    "Well, thest time I saw him was less than seventy years ago." Xuan Yi recalled her memories.


    Lan Rou heard Xuan Yi''s story and mumbled something to herself. After all, she has reincarnated four times, including this lifetime when she met Baek Ain.


    "Experiencing life." She has an enlightened look on her face.


    Something inside Lan Rou broke and cleared a path for her, making the white-haired beauty enter a trance-like state.


    Baek Ain noticed this and told the otherdies to lower their voices. He observed her change with True Ashen''s Eyes and smiled, finding this random conversation triggered Lan Rou''s chance to break through.


    It was so sudden and random.


    ''It seems she wouldn''t need Bodhisattva''s Seed.'' Baek Ain rubbed his chin, thinking about something.


    "Hmm?"


    Baek Ain sensed a massive presenceing to their location. He maintained hisid-back stance and peeked at Lan Rou.


    The intense heates to their faces, making Xuan Yi nervous.


    "Master, It''s..." Xuan Yi called Baek Ain as a purple glow approached them quickly.


    "The Three Thousand Burning me." Baek Ain finished her words.


    "Don''t worry. I''ll handle it."


    ROOOOOOOOOARR!!


    A purple-scaled dragon roared at them. Its body is enormous, covering the entire field of Baek Ain''s vision.


    And its red-slitted eyes stared at them with disdain, exploding with killing intent.


    "Intruders!"


    "How dare you enter this king''s domain!" The cold voice echoed throughout the Star Region, making the space tremble.


    Lan Rou slowly returned to her normal state as she blinked a few times, witnessing the Three Thousand Burning me''s sudden appearance.


    "It''s here already?" She frowned solemnly.


    Baek Ain waved his hand casually, "Go, take Qing Lin and Xuan Yi with you."


    "I''d like to see this little me ability."


    "Okay." Lan Rou hasn''t fully absorbed her enlightenment. So, she wasn''t in an optimal state to fight something like Three Thousand Burning me.


    "Let''s go!"


    Xuan Yi and Qing Lin nodded, retreating behind Lan Rou.


    Qing Lin nced back and saw her mighty lover''s broad back, feeling his utter confidence. "You must win." She sends a voice transmission.


    BOOM!


    Baek Ain''s body burst out with a brilliant golden me. An image of Golden Crow manifested and let a majestic cry out, summoning three identical suns in the Star Region.


    The three identical suns shone, emitting terrifying destruction force.


    Xuan Yi''s eyes trembled in surprise. She could feel the golden me Baek Ain wielded was much stronger than any me she had ever seen!


    Qing Lin watched Baek Ain pull his right arm back, giving her a V sign.


    Soon, their vision was "thoroughly." covered by a bright golden light.


    ...


    <strong>"Human, your me irritates me!"</strong> The Three Thousand Burning me roared at Baek Ain.


    <strong>"Give it to me or die!"</strong>


    Baek Ain smiled, "If it irritates you, why did you want it?"


    "Sounds like someone is coveting my possession."


    ROAR!


    <strong>"Detestable Human!"</strong> The Three Thousand Burning me opened its mouth, revealing a sharp tooth made of fire crystal.


    Baek Ain wasn''t dumb.


    The Three Thousand Burning me is obviously attracted to the Golden Crow''s Divine me due to its nature.


    Golden Crow is a divine beast birthed in the core of the Primordial Sun, an ancient star. It wields and governs the power of the Primordial Sun, which is "inherently." aligned to the Three Thousand Burning me birthed in outer space where stars are very abundant.


    The Three Thousand Burning me probably thought of using Golden Crow''s Divine me to evolve, bing strong enough to escape this prison-like Star Region.


    However, how could Baek Ain let the Three Thousand Burning me do so?


    He wants to tame this Heavenly me and make it mine.


    After all, the Three Thousand Burning me has formed its spirituality and a capable sentient being.


    Unlike the Fallen Heart me and Six Path Reincarnation me, the Three Thousand Burning me developed its spirituality since its birth and became strong enough to this very stage.


    And not to mention the ability to grant Undying Body, which is better than Fallen Heart me''s increased speed in cultivation and Six Path Reincarnation me''s unpredictable reincarnation cycle ability.


    As for why the Three Thousand Burning me has the form of a dragon, Baek Ain knows the Ancestor of the Ancient Void Dragon discovered it when it was an infant and left behind the "Dragon Seal.", which caused it to take this current form.


    If Baek Ain had to estimate the Three Thousand Burning me''s strength, even a group of 1-Star Dou Saint would have a difficult time.


    Ordinary 1-Star Dou Saint, that is.


    Baek Ain was actually surprised that the passive [King of me] didn''t work on the Three Thousand Burning me. Maybe it has something to do with it being 9th Ranked in Heavenly me Ranking.


    "As expected of the top ten Heavenly me."


    <strong>"DIE!"</strong> The Three Thousand Burning me sent a fiery w made of its me.


    Baek Ain shook his head and waved his hand, turning a handful of golden me into a knife.


    [Parry]


    BAM!


    Baek Ain kicked the air and rushed toward the Heavenly me''s face. He clenched his fist and let the Golden Crow''s Divine me strengthen his muscles.


    The power of one hundred Ancient Mammoths activated.


    Baek Ain''s movement was too quick, and the Heavenly me''s massive body didn''t allow it to dodge.


    BOOM!


    Baek Ain sends the Three Thousand Burning me flying.


    A loud explosion can be heard from miles away as the massive purple dragon made of me crashes onto a floating stone.


    ROAR!


    The Three Thousand Burning me let out a furious roar.


    A purple-ck me burned the surrounding area, creating a domain of destruction.


    Of course, Baek Ain won''t stay idle when faced with this.


    "Seventh Stage: Yellow Spring Ashes."


    A golden ring of fire spread from Baek Ain and burned the air, creating yellow ashes that flew everywhere.


    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!


    Two domains shed fiercely.


    Star Region violently shook as the heat released from the two domains was too much.


    Baek Ain''s domain is much smaller than the Three Thousand Burning me''s.


    However, thetter discovered something absurd.


    ''How could this be!'' The Heavenly me was shocked. His domain was "actually." lost to this human!


    The moment Three Thousand Burning me made contact with the Golden Crow''s Divine me, it actually felt threatened.


    And a momentter, the little golden domain actually swallowed its noble me.


    How ridiculous!


    Baek Ain smiled in amusement, watching the Heavenly me bewildered by the Golden Crow''s Divine me.


    After all, this is the me Baek Ain had carefully cultivated for years.


    How could it be ordinary?


    As Baek Ain''s cultivation base soared, the Golden Crow''s Divine me became stronger.


    "<strong>You forced me to do this, human!"</strong>


    <strong>"I''d not y around anymore!"</strong>


    <strong>"Take this and die!"</strong>


    "..." Baek Ain sighed.


    This Heavenly me talks too much and is not cute at all.


    At least Fallen Heart me and Gnome could do "OwO." from time to time and entertain Baek Ain.


    The Three Thousand Burning me''s draconic body shed and became smaller rapidly, reducing its size to thirty meters long. However, the power it contained became more tyrannical.


    The Heavenly me opened its mouth and spewed fire breath that could annihte anyone below Dou Saint Realm to ashes.


    Baek Ain watched the me spread over several kilometers and prevented him from running away.


    But why would he run away?


    One of the three identical suns Baek Ain summoned earlier hovered over his right hand.


    "Eighth Stage: zing Sunray."


    A concentrated ray erupted from the sun, cutting through the fire breath the Three Thousand Burning me unleashed.


    Extreme mes like the zing sun rays pierced the space and struck the Three Thousand Burning me''s body.


    "N-No!" The Heavenly me panicked.


    It was toote.


    <strong>"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHHH!"</strong>


    The Three Thousand Burning me tried everything to run and gritted his teeth. A tiny dragon, the Heavenly me''s Core, ejected and escaped sessfully.


    Sessful until a hand grabbed it.


    "H-Human!" The Three Thousand Burning me acted timidly before Baek Ain, who caught it.


    Baek Ain chuckled, "I got you."


    "Do you want to run away?"


    "Y-Yes. Will you let me away?"


    "Nope."


    Baek Ain pointed his finger at the Three Thousand Burning me and sent a small red butterfly. It wasn''t an ordinary butterfly because it was the 9th Stage of the Record of Burning World.


    "Ninth Stage: Red Butterfly."


    It''s a Soul-Type Attack, which is very effective against beings who have gained a spirituality and are sentient.


    <strong>"UGYAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"</strong>


    <strong>"PAIN! PAIN!"</strong>


    <strong>"SO MUCH PAIN, STOP! PLEASE STOP!"</strong>


    <strong>"AAAAAHHH!"</strong>


    After a while, the Red Butterfly disappeared.


    "Ha... Ha..." The Heavenly me breathed heavily.


    <strong>"H-Human..."</strong>


    "Human?" Baek Ain narrowed his eyes and smirked at the Heavenly me, sending a chill to its nonexistent spine.


    "It seems you need a little more education."


    "Don''t worry. I''ll teach you slowly..."


    The Heavenly me''s draconic eyes widened as it roared, "W-Wait, NOOOOOO!!"
