The flames continued to burn, consuming all of Li Huowang, his appearance gradually morphing closer to that of the charred Shou San.
Li Huowang wasn't sure if it was due to the Elixir he'd ingested or the surrounding flames, but everything he saw began to distort.
The skeletons that should have lain motionless around him started to grow like trees, twisting bizarrely as they extended.
"Ah... Ah... AH!!!"
With Li Huowang's screams, the fire seemed to find an entrance, burrowing in instantly, beginning to scorch his internal organs from the inside.
"Xuanyang, my friend, it is time," said Shou San, walking over and spreading the Great Thousand Record in front of Li Huowang on the ground.
Tortured by dual agonies, to the point where death would have been kinder, Li Huowang looked through the layers of flames.
