Gu Yuan decided to take action immediately. He reached out his hand and pressed on the fire furnace, activating the restriction on it.
Almost at the instant Gu Yuan activated the restriction, the lid of the fire furnace suddenly opened, and an immense suction force emanated from within.
This suction force was incredibly terrifying, yet it seemed to target only Gu Yuan himself.
His robes fluttered and his hair scattered, yet Ji Yufei and Yan Xiaoling, who were not far away, appeared completely unaffected.
Initially, Gu Yuan intended to use his True Qi to resist, but upon a second thought, he did not resist and allowed the fire furnace to ingest him.
A dazzling brightness filled Gu Yuan's vision, and he found himself engulfed in a sea of fire, surrounded by dark red, blazing True Flames. The intense heat quickly assaulted him, seemingly intent on reducing him to ashes.
