fiery world

Chapter: *The* *Fiery* *World*

A bright flame lit up in a pitch black environment, bringing white light in it's surroundings. Numerous more flames started to burn more and more vigorously until they eventually formed an arched door.

A masked figure stepped out from the arched door, his body immediately shrouded by a layer of dense black fog

"Disperse!" Following the voice coming from the figure, the rays of light and undulations immediately faded until they completely disappeared.

"Secret technique: Shadow stealth!"

The figure seemed to be at unease. A rune representing concealment and hiding suddenly flashed within the fog.

Soon after, the entire cloud of fog shook and turned completely transparent, blending in with the surroundings.

Under the cover of the fog, the entire silhouette seemed to have penetrated through and into the shadows in the cracks, making it's way through a pitch-black hallway.

Four figures illuminated by a sphere of light made their way through the pitch-black hallway, oblivious to the new intruder spying on them.

# CLLLIIIICCKK!!

A metallic groove was pressed down slightly by Greenwood's palm, strange and faint streams of light rushed from his palm into the groove, causing it to become dazzling.

A picture hanging at the opposite side of the hall was suddenly bathed in white light, the outline of a door appeared around it, the light grew in intensity till it swallowed the picture and vanished abruptly, revealing an unexpected scene at the other side.

Countless fiery streaks of light whistled at the other side, covering everything in a layer of red. The smearing heat buffeted their faces.

"Eh? Another dimension!" Sharon shrieked.

"It's a pocket dimension, the president has been hiding in here since the backlash of his cultivation base, so his numerous enemies won't be able to find him but unfortunately for him, I have strong Intel's around him. Let's go!" Greenwood's eyes narrowed and flashed with a malicious intent.

All four of them turned into piercing streaks of light, vanishing into the pocket dimension/ space.

The masked silhouette chuckled gleefully and flicked his sleeves, a red imprint appeared and it carved in some words into it then the words flickered with light and vanished, seemingly reaching it's destination.

This imprint was a medium of communication, due to the complex and complicated magical runes, it performs similar work as a cellphone.

The silhouette also streaked into the pocket dimension. Immediately after it went in, several metallic puppets appeared and stood on guard at the entrance, their bodies completely invisible to the eyes.

A fiery world covered in layers upon layers of fire energy particles, the air itself distorted due to the overwhelming heat, towering fountains of red hot lava shot up into the air, causing even space to tremble in it's temperature, dying the skies in crimson red. The dense particles of fire energy suppressed all other energy particles to almost negligible amount.

"Woowwwww, this place is truly a fiery world" Roy started trembling.

As a ghostly figure, the highly concentrated fire particles was bad news, his complete state has an extreme weakness for fire, he couldn't really stand it. If not for the fact, that he was a silver ranker, the immense heat and dense opposing particles would have crushed him to death.

But even as a silver ranker, his cultivation base had plummeted due to the heat and he was now the most vulnerable but of course, he wouldn't show it and pretended as mightily as before.

Greenwood's eyes swept through the environment, he extended his domain but it was limited and suppressed due to the fire particles. Any other energy particles was firmly suppressed here, making it harder to attack or even meditate here.

"Last I remembered, any different dimension has a world's will of it's own, effectively going against intruders and considering the fact, that the president has chosen here to hide, it can only mean, he has found a way to control the world's will here, and even though, he has suffered an injury to his cultivation base, he could use the world's will here to suppress us firmly when we attack" Parker spoke out loud, rubbing his chin and looking at Greenwood.

"That's right!" Sharon nodded in approval and looked at Greenwood.

Even Roy looked at Greenwood tactfully.

They need to know they have the upper hand in this fight, because even the slightest unknown power the president has can completely eradicate them, afterall, someone at the gold rank is no joke.

"I have made preparations of that" Greenwood smirked, blood lust overflowing from his body.

Greenwood raised his hand and grasped the open space, it would seem as if a veil in space is being torn apart.

#RIIIPPPPPP.

A dazzling scepter appeared into existence, the moment, it showed itself, all the fire particles strangely moved away from it, the mysterious aura it radiated was indeed otherworldly.

"This is the obsidian scepter! I burrowed it from a friend for specifically this purpose" Greenwood stretched his hand and grasped the scepter.

Immediately, it radiated a light that deterred even the fire particles and the mysterious world's will couldn't stand a chance at it.

"The obsidian scepter? I have heard of that. Wasn't that the personal treasure of the Creed's island chief?" Parker sucked in a hot breath, staring at the scepter with dreadful eyes.

The obsidian scepter was rumoured to be a high-grade magical equipment and something of that measure will even make other silver ranker jealous and eyes full of greed.

But of course, none of them would dare steal it from Greenwood yet and this is because the scepter would have already bounded with it's master which is the Creed's island chief and undoing the bond forcefully would require the strength of a gold ranker or an extreme peak Silver ranker.

The shadowy silhouette looked at the scepter, it's eyes full of greed.

"Now, with this, the world's will wouldn't be a problem. Let's go. I have the coordinates of the president. Now, that man is like a fish in the chopping block, just waiting to die" Greenwood flashed into the skies.

Followed by the others and the unknown silhouette, they flew at terrifying speeds, tearing through the air like hot knives in butter.

Greenwood's figure suddenly stopped and hovered in front of a strange mountain range or rather lava range.

Molten rocks and solidified rocks stacking up to form mountains littered the surroundings.

But a strange transparent forcefield formed at the entrance to the lava range, sparks of electricity coursed through it from time to time.

"Alright, Gentlemen and woman, this is the place, the president last hope of defense is this forcefield, forcefully passing through the forcefield would send you straight into an illusionary maze and it was erected when he was still a gold ranker, so even I can't say I can break it, the least we could do is to be cautious. The maze isn't so complicated and riddled with flaws since formations isn't really the president's area of expertise, find some flaws and advance through the maze. The president should be at the centre of the maze. I will be leaving first" Greenwood spoke hurriedly as if he was already too excited in killing the president and didn't want to waste more time.

Greenwood's figure pierced through the forcefield and disappeared, it was as if he never existed in the first place, the lava range didn't even register his existence, it still appeared the same.

But this proved, Greenwood was necessarily lying and it was a big network of illusion at play here.
