Chapter 1502  The Challenge for Breakthrough(End)

Huo Jinglin gritted his teeth and persevered through the pain of his burning consciousness. After a while, his body began to give up since the damage had crossed the threshold.

Right at that moment, the dead tree in Huo Jinglin\'s consciousness woke up. All the fruits opened their mouths and released a strong cry.

The fire seemed to have met a terrifying enemy and immediately began to back away. Huo Jinglin finally felt some reprieve from the pain, but the fire was still in his sea of consciousness and hadn\'t been completely doused.

The tree didn\'t attack once the fire had stepped out of the danger range, so an unfavorable situation played out for Huo Jinglin.

Fortunately for him, the fire wasn\'t eternal, so it disappeared after a few more minutes. Huo Jinglin\'s face was pale, and his body seemed like it had been in a tiresome war for centuries.

The pit had been fully freed of fire after that, and without wasting any time, Huo Jinglin crashed to the ground. He immediately fell asleep.

His body couldn\'t free any energy to recover physically or mentally, so he could only leave it to the time. After an unknown amount of time had passed, Huo Jinglin opened his eyes.

His body didn\'t look good at all, but he was better than before. His body had regained some of its energy. If he wanted to recover more, he needed the help of fire elements, but he didn\'t have any.

Since nothing was blocking him from the pedestal anymore, he was only one step away from his goal of the challenge. He then took a deep breath and stepped forward.

After Huo Jinglin climbed up the pit, he came in direct contact with the pedestal.

Hiss!

Huo Jinglin hissed in pain and immediately moved his hand away. When he looked at his hand, he found it had turned red and was on the verge of melting. The contact was instant, yet the damage had reached such intensity that he couldn\'t help but frown.

Time flew by, and Huo Jinglin just stood there, having no idea what to do. Even with the barrier protecting him, he couldn\'t touch the pedestal.

In the end, Huo Jinglin decided to grab the ball of fire directly. It wasn\'t like he had any other way to solve the issue.

Once he made the decision, he took a large, deep breath to remove whatever hesitation he had in his heart and mind. He then extended his hands and grabbed the ball of fire.

"Argh!" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The next moment, Huo Jinglin let out a hysterically painful roar as the fire didn\'t just stay there but enveloped him.

In less than a moment, Huo Jinglin\'s body was turned into ashes, but he was still aware of the happenings.

Why he was still aware of the happenings had to do with the dead tree in his sea of consciousness. Even though the fire burned both his soul and body to ashes, the tree still contained a part of his soul that remained oblivious to the damage.

The next moment, the ball of fire jumped out of his ashes and returned to the pedestal. Not long after, time seemed to have flown backward, and soon Huo Jinglin appeared as he was before grabbing the fire.

He had a mixture of expressions on his face, but he seemed to have seen a way out of the situation. Huo Jinglin understood that the dead tree wasn\'t just a carrier of the souls of those ritualists. It seemed more of a cheat since if there was anyone other than himself, they would have been burned to ashes.

Huo Jinglin then reached for the ball of fire once more, and the outcome was the same. He kept repeating the same since he could see the fire on the pedestal slowly dimming. After his seventh attempt, the ball of fire had turned to half its original size.

The only issue with all of that was that the pain was still at the same intensity, but since Huo Jinglin was left with no other choice, he could only keep doing it, gritting his teeth.

After the twelfth attempt, only a spark seemed to have remained of the original ball of fire. Once Huo Jinglin\'s body recovered, he made another attempt and grabbed the spark.

The next moment, no such scenes of fire enveloping him appeared, but the spark in his hand had completely burned out. It wasn\'t the end, and suddenly a fiery light enveloped Huo Jinglin.

At first, Huo Jinglin was taken aback by the scene since he thought it was another situation of him turning into ashes, but nothing of that sort happened that time.

The fiery light contained a warm sensation of energy as it slowly seeped into Huo Jinglin\'s body through his skin pores. Huo Jinglin couldn\'t help but close his eyes and moan in pleasure as the warm energy covered his body. Whatever internal and external injuries he had gotten since he entered the challenge slowly began to recover at a rapid rate.

His pale skin also retained its color, but suddenly, the warm energy turned wild when it was near its heart.

Cough!

Huo Jinglin coughed out a liter of blood, and his face immediately turned pale once again. Fortunately for Huo Jinglin, that was the end of it, and the energy returned to its controlled stage.

A few moments later, whatever remained of the energy had been completely devoured by Huo Jinglin, so it disappeared. Immediately after that, a white light enveloped him, and following that, Huo Jinglin found himself standing in front of the altar, which now had cracks all over it.

The cracks were growing at a rapid rate, and soon after, they had grown immensely, resulting in the altar cracking into pieces and then disappearing from the endless field of altars.

The ball of fire seemed to have been the core of the altar, so once it disappeared, the altar also vanished. The place didn\'t remain empty, but a new three-step altar started to form, and at the same time, the familiar blue screen popped out before Huo Jinglin.
