Seeing that the Ji Shen Technique was helpless against Chu Nan, Ji Qinghuo was extremely anxious, knowing that if he didn't seize this opportunity to kill Chu Nan, he would become a major threat in the future.

Thus, he secretly gritted his teeth and decided to fight to the death. Even if it meant paying the most tragic price, or even becoming a cripple, he was determined to eliminate Chu Nan to eliminate future troubles.

With his mind made up, Ji Qinghuo immediately employed a Secret Technique to forcibly enhance his own strength in a short period.

His aura skyrocketed suddenly, like a burning star, emanating a suffocating pressure.

This immense power temporarily suppressed Master Tianxuan, leaving him no time to attend to Chu Nan.

At this moment, Ji Qinghuo seized the opportunity, his figure flickered, and he instantly appeared beside Chu Nan.

His gaze was cold and sharp, tightly gripping a Treasure Sword that shot cold beams of light, convinced that with one strike, he could slay Chu Nan under his sword.

After all, as a powerhouse of the Respected Unity Ninth Level, he was confident that one move would suffice to eliminate the enemy before him.

With the plan set, Ji Qinghuo wasted no time executing it.

The Source Pill within him seemed ignited, radiating a dazzling and brilliant light.

Simultaneously, he fiercely tore through space, his form teleporting in front of Master Tianxuan, engaging in fierce combat once again.

In an instant, a loud explosion echoed, and the surrounding space shattered accordingly; the two stood like meteors in the void, displaying unparalleled might, terrifying figures of this era.

As the battle continued, Ji Qinghuo gradually gained the upper hand with the powerful strength augmented by the Secret Technique, suppressing Master Tianxuan.

Seeing this, Master Tianxuan's expression changed slightly, but he remained composed, constantly pondering.

"What on earth happened? Why has Ji Qinghuo's strength seemingly increased significantly?"

Master Tianxuan's mind raced, and with time passing, he astonishingly discovered that he was gradually being suppressed by Ji Qinghuo.

The green flames were like insidious and treacherous snakes, continuously releasing hair-raising killing intent towards Master Tianxuan.

Even the cold aura from the flames grew stronger, and Master Tianxuan clearly felt his body seemingly freezing, becoming increasingly sluggish and clumsy.

"Ji Qinghuo, you're actually intending to fight me to the death!" Master Tianxuan, with his vast experience, quickly discerned that Ji Qinghuo employed a special Secret Technique, gaining such formidable cultivation.

That's why he found it hard to believe; Ji Qinghuo evidently had the potential to break through to the Great Illusion Realm, and doing this was like self-destruction!

Even if Master Tianxuan thought Chu Nan was worth investing in, he would never risk using a Secret Technique, as it might hinder future breakthroughs.

After all, Ji Qinghuo had the entire family as support, whereas Master Tianxuan could only rely on himself at this moment.

At this moment, the mighty ones of the Nine Heavens Secret Sect had not yet awakened, but Master Tianxuan evidently didn't harbor such noble aspirations.

Compared to Ji Qinghuo, he couldn't exhibit the decisive attitude of self-sacrifice for the family. Consequently, in this fierce battle, Ji Qinghuo rapidly suppressed him comprehensively.

Ji Qinghuo manipulated the green flames with one hand; the raging fires formed a massive fire serpent, its might endless, forcing Master Tianxuan to retreat repeatedly.

At the same time, his other hand kept forming spells, gradually coalescing into a colossal Hand Seal.

This Hand Seal emanated an overwhelming aura capable of suppressing everything.

Even though Ji Qinghuo had already employed the Secret Technique, he still lacked confidence to directly kill Master Tianxuan.

Therefore, he decided to perform the Sealing Technique to temporarily trap Master Tianxuan.

As long as he could trap the opponent for even ten breaths of time, Ji Qinghuo was confident enough to slay Chu Nan!

Seeing Ji Qinghuo single-handedly forming the Sealing Hand Seal, Master Tianxuan immediately understood his intent.

Thus, Master Tianxuan didn't hesitate to shout towards Chu Nan: "Chu Nan, Ji Qinghuo is willing to do whatever it takes to kill you! You must immediately ride the Suffering Crossing Ship to escape the Celestial Crossing Realm!"

"Don't worry about me here, Ji Qinghuo can't kill me, as long as you can leave, we've won!"

Master Tianxuan's words resounded with confidence and determination.

However, before Chu Nan could respond, Ji Qinghuo's face changed suddenly, his expression extremely grave.

At this moment, Chu Nan had already demonstrated astonishing strength.

He had not only slain numerous powerful races and Royal Family strongmen of the Respected Unity Realm but had also successfully suppressed the Ji Shen Technique, becoming the strongest present next only to Master Tianxuan and himself.

More importantly, behind Chu Nan was the Suffering Crossing Ship.

As long as he wished, he could board the Suffering Crossing Ship at any time, cross the Endless Sea of Suffering, and reach the Heavenly Balance Realm.

Faced with this situation, Ji Qinghuo felt powerless. He could only watch Chu Nan's actions helplessly, unable to take any effective measures to stop him.

After all, that was the Endless Sea of Suffering, even the Respected Unity Realm powerhouses dared not tread lightly.

Even if a Tianpin Spirit Martial sank into it, it would dim in comparison.

Even a peerless expert in the Heavenless Realm would have to pay an extremely painful price to cross the Endless Sea of Suffering, let alone the mere Respected Unity Realm.

In other words, as long as Chu Nan boarded the Suffering Crossing Ship, he could easily escape the current predicament, and no one could do anything about him.

In an instant, Ji Qinghuo's heart raced, tense emotions surged in his heart. He was extremely worried that Chu Nan would choose to leave on the Suffering Crossing Ship, putting him in a passive position.

However, Ji Qinghuo was very aware, this was a rare opportunity to escape the Celestial Crossing Realm!

He had just woken up, and the feeling wasn't strong, but for those Martial Artists imprisoned here for decades or even centuries, leaving the Celestial Crossing Realm was like escaping a cage.

Such tempting conditions, who could resist?

At this moment, bright light sparkled in Master Tianxuan's eyes, as he knew that once Chu Nan stepped out of the Celestial Crossing Realm, he would be like a bird freed from its cage, able to soar the sky freely henceforth.

With Chu Nan's exceptional talent, even in the Heavenly Balance Realm, he could still shine brightly.

After all, it offered a more superior cultivation atmosphere and more opportunities to enhance strength, undoubtedly an ideal place for a Martial Artist like Chu Nan to adventure and train.

Perhaps it would take a long ten years or even more distant hundreds of years, but Master Tianxuan firmly believed that Chu Nan would eventually become the most supreme peerless strongman of the lower realm.

By then, Chu Nan would return triumphantly like a king, and all the crises faced in the Celestial Crossing Realm would be solved effortlessly.

As for Master Tianxuan's own safety, he wasn't worried in the least.
