Sky Shadow.

Summary

The chapter describes Chen and Huo Yan's visit to a dilapidated sacrificial altar dedicated to the Fire God, where they notice the absence of a statue, which raises Chen's doubts about the altar's significance. Huo Yan explains that the Fire God is represented as a massive flame rather than a statue, and he urges Chen to kneel and worship. Despite his skepticism, Chen mimics Huo Yan's actions, reflecting on his lack of faith and identity. As they worship, Huo Yan believes Chen possesses the Fire God’s spiritual power. Chen reveals the Fire God’s staff, which ignites a powerful reaction, causing the altar to tremble and the surrounding lava to surge violently. In a moment of realization, Chen strikes the altar with the staff, leading to a dramatic merging of the two halves of the staff amidst a brilliant display of light and energy, suggesting the presence of the Fire God.
