Reverend Insanity: Dream Gu

Lin Yan quietly left the Ten Thousand Li Silk Corridor and chose the nearest node passage leading toward Blazing Yellow Heaven Pit.

The next moment, he emerged outside. A blazing sun hung high overhead, while scorching sand stretched endlessly beneath his feet. Flame Sparrow Wings unfolded behind his back, and his figure shot into the sky, flying rapidly toward Blazing Yellow Heaven Pit.

As he continued forward, a vast crimson-glazed desert gradually appeared within his vision. The terrifying heat distorted both sky and earth. Red fire rolled endlessly across the land like waves, making the entire region look like a world swallowed by flames.

At the edge of the desert, more than a dozen Rank 4 and Rank 5 Gu Masters sat scattered across the sands. Some were meditating in place, while others focused on healing the fire poison that had built up inside their bodies.

Lin Yan merely swept his gaze across them once before completely ignoring their existence and directly entering the crimson world ahead.

The Gu Masters below immediately noticed the arrival of another outsider. When they saw Lin Yan charge directly into the Blazing Yellow Desert without making any obvious preparations, expressions of shock instantly appeared on their faces.

”Who is this person? He actually dares enter the Blazing Yellow Desert without any precautions?!”

One of them sneered, ”No matter who he is, he’s courting death...” But before he could finish speaking, his voice caught in his throat and his expression froze in shock.

Lin Yan had already stepped into the Blazing Yellow Desert. Red mist drifted through the air while countless sparks floated like fireflies. Tiny flames seeped into his body through every pore, carrying terrifying heat capable of burning flesh and blood from within. In an instant, his entire body turned scorching hot, as though his blood itself had ignited.

Yet Lin Yan’s expression did not change. His body had long been tempered by countless Gu worms—Fire Pattern Gu, Fire Aperture Gu, Flame Bone Gu, and Netherfire Dragon Python. His physique was already far beyond ordinary, comparable to half a Strength Path Rank 5 Gu Master. In terms of resistance to flames alone, few Rank 5 Gu Masters could compare to him.

He lowered his gaze toward the center of the desert. There, a massive red-gold heaven pit split open the earth like a bottomless abyss. Its depths were impossible to see. From time to time, enormous pillars of fire erupted upward, roaring into the sky like blazing dragons.

Lin Yan flapped the Flame Sparrow Wings behind his back and began descending toward the depths of the abyss.

The Gu Masters outside hurriedly activated investigative methods to watch from afar. But when they saw his figure disappear into the depths of the heaven pit, every one of them stood stunned.

”He... he actually went in? Could he be a Gu Immortal?”

When Lin Yan stepped into Blazing Yellow Heaven Pit, it felt as though he had entered a world made entirely of flames. The surrounding rock walls had been scorched red over countless years, gleaming like glazed crystal beneath the firelight. Even the stone itself was saturated with dense Flame Path Dao Marks. If mined and brought outside, it would already qualify as Rank 5 Gu material.

Dark red magma flowed down the rock walls like rivers, gathering from every direction before disappearing into the abyss below. Looking downward, the entire pit resembled a giant honeycomb. Countless underground tunnels twisted through the depths, leading into darkness.

The deeper Lin Yan descended, the more terrifying the heat became. Even with his powerful physique, he soon began to feel the pressure pressing against his flesh.

Without hesitation, he activated his first Rank 5 Gu—Five Aperture Fire Furnace Gu. At once, blazing warmth surged from his abdomen, like a furnace igniting deep within his body. A faint furnace phantom appeared beneath his skin, glowing through flesh and bone.

The moment it activated, his five apertures opened fully and began madly absorbing the endless fire energy flooding the surroundings. The scorching waves of flame around him were rapidly drawn into his body like rivers flowing into the sea.

The pressure on Lin Yan’s body instantly eased. His eyes lit up. Here, Five Aperture Fire Furnace Gu can store an enormous amount of fire energy. It’s almost no different from having endless primeval essence.”

Lin Yan immediately realized the value of this place. Blazing Yellow Heaven Pit was not only a treasure land for gathering Flame Path materials—it was also an ideal place for refining Flame Path Immortal Gu. With the support of the countless Flame Path Dao Marks gathered here, the success rate of refining Immortal Gu would rise significantly. In truth, many wild Immortal Gu were born in extreme environments like this.

For Flame Path Gu Masters, it was practically a heaven-bestowed sacred land. It was even one of the best places to undergo tribulation and attempt Immortal Ascension.

When facing heavenly tribulation and earthly calamity, if the Gu Master’s path matched the Dao Marks of the surrounding land, the tribulation would become easier to endure. If the conflict between the two was small, the destructive power would also weaken greatly.

This made Blazing Yellow Heaven Pit an ideal place for Flame Path Gu Masters.
