Chapter 267 - 240, Kui Gang
Within the great hall, Heavenly Emperor strode towards the exit, his figure flickering and vanishing in an instant.
The next moment, Heavenly Emperor appeared in an independent space of immaculate whiteness, with white jade for the ground and the surrounding void sealed off.
Heavenly Emperor walked up to a colossal furnace, on which the characters for Heaven and Earth were inscribed.
The furnace roared open, spewing forth scorching radiance from within, causing the fabric of the vast heavens and earth around it to twist and warp.
Heavenly Emperor took out a Jade Gourd, opened it, and gushing from within was a surge of murky crimson energy imbued with the Dark Power. The black and red miasma danced about in the space, at times coalescing into beastly heads and at other times into grisly skeletal faces, then lunging fiercely towards Heavenly Emperor.
A hazy purple-gold Holy Light radiated from Heavenly Emperor’s entire being. Wretched screams echoed from within the darkness as it quickly dispersed into the distance only to reassemble and confront Heavenly Emperor with renewed eagerness.
His expression unchanged, Heavenly Emperor regarded these malevolent thoughts as mere trifles. With a wave of his hand, the condensed darkness fell powerless into the furnace, and the lid of the furnace slammed shut with a bang. A powerful Mana flowed from Heavenly Emperor’s body into the furnace.
Sharp, agonized screams arose from within the Heaven and Earth Furnace, and consecutive pounding sounds echoed as the formidable darkness thrashed about inside.
Time unknown, the pounding subsided, and the darkness was rendered into nothing within the furnace, as the Heavenly Emperor stepped out, his figure disappearing in a flash.
The great hall fell into a deathly silence, and suddenly a vortex formed above the Heaven and Earth Furnace. Within the whirlpool lay darkness, and in its midst one could faintly discern a grand hall situated atop a mountain peak.
