Chapter 831: Chapter 439: Caught Between a Rock and a Hard Place (Part 2)

Following this method, Gu Sheng evaded the fire crows’ attacks dozens of times.

As time passed, the cauldron gradually transformed under the tempering of the dark fire.

The original cracks slowly healed, and the material of the cauldron became harder and purer under the baptism of flames.

At the same time, Gu Sheng could feel the power contained within the cauldron constantly rising.

Before long, the refinement of the cauldron was completed.

At this moment, the entire body of the cauldron became smoother and brighter, emitting a dazzling black light.

Looking at the cauldron, it seemed as if a new life was brewing within, waiting to burst forth.

Gu Sheng could feel that the quality of the cauldron had been greatly enhanced.

Its defensive capability was enough to withstand the power of the Fire Domain’s seventh layer.

Gu Sheng retracted the cauldron, gently stroking its body, showing a look of being unable to part with it.

”A blessing in disguise, perhaps... Hahaha...”

Gu Sheng couldn’t help but sigh with admiration.

Suddenly, another wave of fire crows charged towards Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng’s eyes focused, and in a flash, he dodged into the cauldron.

At the same time, he performed the Heavenly Gang Seven Star Steps.

”Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

The cauldron moved forward in the manner of the Heavenly Gang Seven Star Step Skill.

Though the dark fire surged in the seventh layer of the Fire Domain, it did not harm Gu Sheng.

Especially after the quality of the cauldron was enhanced, Gu Sheng’s step skill also became more profound.

The Heavenly Gang Seven Star Step Skill was intricate and exquisite, and the attacks of the fire crows all missed.

Within the cauldron, Gu Sheng used his Divine Sense to perceive the external situation.

He discovered that these fire crows attacked fiercely but seemed to lack intelligence.

Their attacks were as if following orders.

Suddenly, the clattering sound ceased.

”Hmm? The fire crows have retreated?”

Gu Sheng was puzzled.

His heart moved as he put away the cauldron and glanced outside.

What he saw startled Gu Sheng.

A cultivator with a crow’s head and human body was suspended in mid-air.

He exuded a powerful aura, clearly not an ordinary cultivator.

This crow-headed human-bodied cultivator, his eyes like lightning, was coldly watching Gu Sheng.

His gaze radiated arrogance, as if looking at an insignificant ant.

”Who are you, daring to enter the seventh layer of the Fire Domain and harm my fire crows?”

The crow-headed human-bodied cultivator questioned coldly.

Gu Sheng was shocked, not expecting these fire crows to have a master!

”Senior, I didn’t harm them?”

Gu Sheng looked bewildered.

”Look!”

The fire crow man pointed to a position below.

Gu Sheng looked closely and saw the corpses of several fire crows below.

Their flames were gradually extinguishing, it seemed they had exerted too much force while pecking the cauldron, leading to exhaustion and death.

However, this also reflected that the quality of the cauldron had indeed improved significantly.

Even these fire crows had been countered by their own strength.

”Senior, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it.”

Gu Sheng said respectfully.

In such a situation, maintaining politeness was very important.

If this guy were provoked, the consequences would be very serious.

But Gu Sheng was also a little speechless, he should have listened to that dark purple creature and exited the volcano directly, avoiding this fire crow man.

”Hmph!”

The crow-headed human-bodied cultivator snorted coldly, and the flames around his body grew even stronger.

”Whoosh whoosh whoosh...”

Instantly, a scorching aura began to emanate from his body.

This aura made Gu Sheng feel somewhat similar to the dark fire.

”Whoosh!”

Suddenly, the fire crow man hurled a ball of dark fire at Gu Sheng.

”Oh no!”

Seeing this, Gu Sheng was shocked.

Hurriedly, he roused his Divine Power, his figure flashed, dodging it.

However, just as Gu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, the dark fire seemed to have a spiritual nature, relentlessly pursuing Gu Sheng, unyielding.

”Darn it... Does it have tracking capability?”

Gu Sheng silently cursed.

Knowing this, the burning of the dark fire was different from the other layers of the Fire Domain.

If caught, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Then, Gu Sheng used the Heavenly Gang Seven Star Steps again.

His figure was like a ghost, shuttling through the seventh layer of the Fire Domain, barely dodging the pursuit of the dark fire.

”Hmm? Heavenly Gang Seven Star Steps?”

The fire crow man was surprised to see Gu Sheng able to dodge his attack.

He hadn’t expected Gu Sheng to know this step skill!

”Hehe... take this!”

The Fire Crow Man suddenly let out a cold laugh, and then he channeled his Divine Power, causing a giant fire crow to fly out from behind him.

Its wings spread wide, nearly covering the entire space.

Especially its eyes, made of flames, looked vicious and ferocious.

Gu Sheng saw this and felt a tightness in his heart.

In a hurry, he summoned his short sword, urging his Divine Power to strike at the fire crow.

”Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

The short sword drew a golden streak in the air.

Simultaneously, under Gu Sheng’s control, the short sword grew to a size similar to the fire crow.

”Caw caw caw!”

The fire crow was somewhat surprised to see the short sword enlarge.

At the same time, it felt the threat of Gu Sheng.

Subsequently, the fire crow flapped its wings to fly away.

But the enlarged short sword, like a maggot in the bones, tightly locked onto its figure.

Gu Sheng knew well the power of the fire crow, but at this moment he had no choice.

He must defeat the fire crow now, or he would be in dire straits!

”Go!”

Gu Sheng shouted loudly.

With the blessing of his Divine Power, the short sword shone brightly, transforming into a dazzling stream of Sword Qi.

”Whoosh!”

The short sword turned into a meteor, shooting straight at the fire crow.

The fire crow, seeing this, did not dare to delay, swiftly twisting its body to dodge this fatal strike.

However, Gu Sheng had already anticipated the fire crow’s reaction.

The short sword instantly changed trajectory in the air, ghost-like, bypassing the fire crow’s defense to strike its vital point.

”Bang!”

A loud crash.

The short sword pierced fiercely into the fire crow’s chest, flames bursting out and dissipating into invisibility.

”Caw...”

The fire crow let out a shrill and tragic scream.

It flapped its wings frantically, trying to pull out the short sword from its body.

But Gu Sheng did not give the fire crow any respite, driving the short sword entirely into the fire crow’s body.

At this point, from the fire crow’s wound, blood gushed like a spring, flames falling layer by layer in the Fire Domain.

”Caw!”

The fire crow let out one last mournful howl.

Its body swayed a few times in the air before finally crashing heavily to the ground.

After a few bouts, the fire crow was slain under Gu Sheng’s short sword.

In the end, it transformed into a mass of flames, dissipating into the air.

Gu Sheng looked towards the Fire Crow Man hovering nearby.

He did not expect the Fire Crow Man to stand aside, not making a move.

It seemed as if he was deliberately letting Gu Sheng win.

”Who are you?”

The Fire Crow Man suddenly asked.

At this moment, his tone was a bit more peaceful than before.

Gu Sheng retracted the short sword, steadied himself, and said, ”I... I’m just an ordinary cultivator.”

”No!”

As soon as Gu Sheng finished speaking, the Fire Crow Man loudly refuted him.

”Speak! Who taught you the Heavenly Gang Seven Star Steps? And how did you get that short sword?”

The Fire Crow Man demanded loudly.

Gu Sheng was slightly stunned, looking at the other’s excited expression, and did not intend to hide anything.

”The Heavenly Gang Seven Star Step was taught to me by a mad old man, who said it could save my life in a critical moment.”

Gu Sheng replied.

”What about the short sword?”

The Fire Crow Man pressed.

”The short sword was given to me by a dark purple creature from the sixth layer of the Fire Domain just before it died.”

Gu Sheng said, looking at the short sword in his hand.

As Gu Sheng glanced at the short sword, the Fire Crow Man burst into hearty laughter.

”Haha... you mad old man, I didn’t expect your disciple to come to my territory.”

The Fire Crow Man laughed heartily.

”No, no, no!”

Gu Sheng hurriedly explained: ”Senior, I’m not the mad old man’s disciple, I only learned a move or two from him, please don’t misunderstand.”

”A move or two is still learning, you are his disciple!”

The Fire Crow Man said firmly.

Gu Sheng didn’t want to argue, simply nodded lightly and said, ”I guess so.”

”Swish!”

Suddenly, Gu Sheng felt the short sword in his hand move abruptly, flying out instantly.

When Gu Sheng reacted, he saw that the short sword had already reached the Fire Crow Man’s hand.

”Senior, that’s mine! Please return it to me!”

Gu Sheng immediately cried out warily.
