Chapter 238 Threat
Whoosh!
Ciel and Rebecca appeared right in front of the mouth of the cave, surprising everyone.
Most of them recognized the two because they had just gotten news of them.
Seeing them directly, many of the Demigods showed strange looks.
Ciel and Rebecca did not care about them.
The former calmly asked, "is it in this cave that the Flame is?"
"Yes," Rebecca replied. "Before becoming the Supreme God, some spirits could stop me, but now, I'm sure no one can stop me unless they want to perish together. Let's go in!"
Rebecca casually pulled Ciel into the mouth of the cave.
Different from the outside, from inside Ciel found that the cave was not so dark. He was just surprised at the vastness of it.
On each side of the cave, he saw small holes that looked like houses.
Sometimes, there were transparent figures coming out of them.
They approached the people coming from outside and attacked them.
Even Ciel and Rebecca were immediately attacked.
However, Rebecca responded by releasing her unrivaled aura.
Instantly, the cave shook violently so that the spirits were terrified.
Rebecca's expression turned cold, no longer showing friendliness.
Only, her hand held Ciel's wrist tightly, as if she would never let go.
As long as his hand was held by her hand, Ciel was not affected by her aura.
"Old Ghost, come out and meet this woman!" Rebecca said in a loud voice that sounded bouncing.
Many parts of the cave cracked from her voice.
"Stop that, do you want to ruin our home, Calamity Knight!" A majestic voice suddenly echoed from the depths of the cave.
Right after that, Ciel saw an enormous transparent figure, giving the impression as if it could reach for the sky when its feet stood on the ground.
The lower half of the figure was not clearly visible, only its face was clearly visible in Ciel's eyes.
It was just that, the face was a bit difficult to describe.
It was like a skull head, unrecognizable, but still had skin and flesh.
What was terrifying was its pair of red eyes, as if they were created from a pool of blood.
A pair of eyes scanned Rebecca's figure, showing shock.
"You've broken through?" he said.
"That's right," Rebecca replied directly.
Actually, that figure wasn't the only one who appeared.
Ciel saw other figures in the vicinity.
They just looked more transparent. Some lacked arms and legs.
However, Ciel had to admit that each of them was extremely hideous, making him wonder how their lives had been in the past.
Did those mighty creatures really have to end up like that, living in a dark cave in spirit form?
"What do you want here?" The giant red-eyed figure asked Rebecca again.
"I want you to give the Holy Sky Flame to my husband," Rebecca replied as she turned her gaze towards Ciel for a moment.
What she said seemed to shock all the figures in the cave.
Firstly her request made them angry while the fact that the young man with Demigod cultivation by her side was her husband left them somewhat dazed.
"Are you married to a junior?" asked the giant figure.
It seemed that he wanted to discuss that first before scolding Rebecca for asking too much.
"No need to ask about my personal life," Rebecca replied in an indifferent tone.
"I think it's funny, a Supreme God like you being the wife of a junior, are you so fascinated by his face?" The figure mocked.
"Everyone has a life choice and this is my choice. Old Ghost, you better be careful with your words or I will destroy your cave, now give us the Holy Sky Flame," Rebecca said which instantly made Old Ghost angry.
"Who do you think we are? We are not easily bullied. If you dare to take one step forward, we will die together."
"Die together? No problem. After that, my husband can take the Flame himself," Rebecca replied, casually taking one step forward.
She was indeed a very decisive woman, never afraid of anything.
When anyone threatened her, she actually responded to the threat.
Old Ghost's mouth opened slightly due to Rebecca's actions.
Although he threatened Rebecca, it didn't mean he dared to die together.
He was the type of creature who wanted to always live, which was the reason he was hiding in this cave. If he wasn't afraid of death, he wouldn't have kept hiding like that until he was called the Old Ghost.
"Hmph, even if I let you take that Flame, I'm afraid you won't be able to take it." In the end, Old Ghost could only snort and remind Rebecca that it was not easy to take the Holy Sky Flame because its level was really very high.
Perhaps only a Supreme Goe with the power of fire could enter that Flame, and finding the Core of that Flame was another matter.
Actually Rebecca knew that, but so far she had discussed it with Ciel.
The latter had told her that he had a reliable trick.
"Since I'm already here, I naturally have confidence," Rebecca replied. "Now, will you let me take that Flame?"
Rebecca's words made Old Ghost narrow his eyes.
He finally fell silent because at the same time he didn't want to lose the Flame.
However, if he refused, Rebecca would probably destroy this cave, causing him and the others to die.
When he thought of that, an angry expression filled his face.
He might only be a spirit, but his neck and cheeks still turned red with anger.
"If you take the Flame, that means you owe all of us a favor," he said after a period of silence.
Unfortunately, his words caused Rebecca's aura to radiate again, causing the cave to shake even harder than before.
"You!" Old Ghost opened his mouth in annoyance.
"Are you here to rob?" he asked in a tone like he wanted to jump up and fight with Rebecca.
"Old Ghost, you better not keep challenging me. I'm here for my husband, and I will do whatever it takes to make things work. I don't care even if it means my death," Rebecca replied very coldly.
Her eyes exuded an extremely terrifying killing intent, frightening the Old Ghost and the figures behind her.
Some of them swallowed their saliva, wanting nothing more than to quickly resolve this matter.
"Chief, just give it to her, it's useless to us anyway." They began to make suggestions to the Old Ghost so that the latter frowned even more.
Unfortunately, there really wasn't anything he could do.
He snorted again at Rebecca then looked at Ciel.
"Hmph, a female cultivator nurturing sugar baby. Boy, your mommy is really fierce," he said.
"Damn it!" Rebecca instantly became very angry.
However, before Rebecca could take action, Ciel grabbed her hand.
"Honey, there's no need to care about the old spirit's words, let's take the Flame and get out of here," he said.
When Rebecca looked at him, she calmed down instantly. It even seemed that she would obey him.
"Alright!" She nodded.
After that, she took a step into the depths of the cave, passing by Old Ghost and the other spirits without a care in the world.
This was indeed their territory, but she didn't seem worried at all.
Whether it was the Old Ghost or the other spirits, they all looked at Ciel and Rebecca who passed by them with astonishment.
In the depths of the cave, Ciel found a boundless underground space, filled with huge trees.
He also saw countless swords, stuck in the ground, each one extremely tall.
If they were outside, they would seem to reach the sky.
However, the most terrifying were the giant heads with only their skulls remaining.
Although their eyes are gone, their light still shines brightly.
Rebecca seemed to have come a few times already, she seemed very familiar.
After pausing for a while, she flew towards the east where there was another cave of seemingly infinite length.
It was a cave full of beast skulls. Ciel found that they had traces of fire, leading him to conclude that they were the remains of a grill.
It seemed that this cave was not just a cave, but also a place full of feasts.
In the short time since entering the cave, Ciel saw something ahead, a sky, a bright and boundless sky with many clouds.
For a moment, he wondered how there was sky in the depths of the cave, but soon realized that it was not sky.
Even from afar, he could instantly deduce that it could turn a Peak Demigod into ashes with just a touch.
It was too hot, and it was a heat that even just its aura could turn a snowy land into a desert.
Rebecca stared at the sky. Despite already being a Supreme God, she still looked amazed.
"Until now, no one has been able to become the owner of one of the top five Holy Flames. Just possessing one of them is enough to make one a Supreme God in the upper ranks. Rumor has it that those who possess all five top Holy Flames can step into the next realm."
