'Could this be the Green Lotus Core Fla?' First Elder Su Qian followed closely behind, rushing into the underground area beneath the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
When Su Qian entered, he saw Xiao Yan battling the Fallen Heart Fla!
'How... how many kinds of Heavenly Flas do you have?!' Su Qian could no longer maintain the composure befitting a First Elder. Looking at Xiao Yan, whose entire body was emitting cyan flas, his eyes filled with shock.
He counted on his fingers. Xiao Yan had already used three kinds of Heavenly Flas!
Just one Fallen Heart Fla had made Jia Nan Academy renowned throughout the entire Black-Corner Region, allowed the Inner Academy to rise, and produced countless strong experts at the Dou King and Dou Emperor realms. Now, Xiao Yan alone possessed three kinds of Heavenly Flas! How great was his fortune!
Hiss!! A screeching sound rang out. At the mont when the transparent Fire Python was grabbed by the magma giant, it suddenly opened its mouth and spat out endless surging Heart Flas that instantly rushed toward Xiao Yan, intending to engulf him.
The terrifying Heart Flas poured down like a vast ocean, flooding the entire underground world in an instant.
As the Heart Flas were about to engulf Xiao Yan, a seven-colored light appeared not far away. The seven-colored light was crystal clear and translucent, transforming into a long rainbow that, in the blink of an eye, blasted into the fiery waves spewed by the transparent Fire Python.
Even the fiery waves unleashed by the Fire Python ca to a halt the mont the rainbow pierced through. Rings of light rose and fell, instantly making the entire underground world appear incomparably gorgeous.
Xiao Yan knew who had intervened. Seizing the mont while dusa was blocking the attack, he wasted no ti and executed the Three Thousand Lightning Movent, transforming into a flash of lightning and swiftly escaping to her side.
Boom!!
Even dusa could not fully withstand the terrifying attack of the Heavenly Fla. The fiery waves from the transparent Fire Python subrged the seven-colored light she had deployed, but by this ti, Xiao Yan had already escaped far away.
"What is your plan?" dusa glanced at Xiao Yan with her beautiful eyes.
Even though she had reforged her body and beco a Heavenly Fla serpent, her strength was probably still inferior to this Heavenly Fla Spirit before them. After all, the Fallen Heart Fla had existed for too long.
It was estimated that since the founding of Jia Nan Academy, the Fallen Heart Fla had been continuously absorbing the power of the earth's magma veins here to grow.
First Elder Su Qian also flew to Xiao Yan's side. Since he had agreed to give the Fallen Heart Fla to Xiao Yan, letting him resolve this calamity threatening the Inner Academy's destruction, he could only trust him now.
A glint of fla flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes. Through the power of the Heavenly Fla, he saw the location of the Heavenly Fla's Essence Fla.
"What's the plan? Just charge straight into its body, grab its Essence Fla, then swallow and refine it. Simple as that." Xiao Yan spoke bluntly. It was his first ti facing a hostile Heavenly Fla Spirit, but as a 'Heavenly Fla Master,' his thods for dealing with Heavenly Flas remained unchanged.
Find the essence, then directly swallow it, relying on the Fla Mantra to forcefully subdue it!
He had no plan—or rather, his plan was to use the Fla Mantra to devour the Heavenly Fla! When facing a Heavenly Fla, the Fla Mantra was his greatest reliance.
Not to ntion First Elder Su Qian, even dusa couldn't help but glance at him as if he were an idiot. He actually planned to swallow it raw!
The Fallen Heart Fla suddenly seed enraged, perhaps sensing the killing intent and greed seeping from Xiao Yan's gaze. It let out sharp, ear-piercing screeches.
Xiao Yan lazily stretched his body, raised his head to look at the Fallen Heart Fla, and smiled. "Let's see today whether you swallow , or I add another Heavenly Fla to my collection!"
As soon as his words fell, terrifying Spiritual Strength erupted from within him. The Green Lotus that was rooted in the magma instantly burst into a surge of erald light. The originally fiery-red magma gradually turned cyan-green!
When Xiao Yan had captured the Green Lotus Core Fla before, he had noticed that the magma around the Green Lotus in the underground world was green, even after the Green Lotus Core Fla had been taken.
The faint green glow grew increasingly intense. Xiao Yan knew that the ti left for his Skyfire Three Mysterious Change was running out, so he didn't intend to rely on Dou Techniques and Dou Qi skills to deal with the Fallen Heart Fla. Instead, he kept his remaining Dou Qi to maintain his Dou Qi wings and to use Three Thousand Lightning Movent to dodge attacks.
He manipulated the Green Lotus Core Fla with Spiritual Strength at the Perfected Mortal State and his fire control abilities. Those cyan-green magmas were his 'soldiers'; right now, he was the ruler of the underground world!
'Asura Soul Reaping Technique—Soul Chase!' Xiao Yan shouted in his heart; his eyes flashed with green light.
rging soul into fla!
Rumble!
The entire earth vein suddenly trembled, accompanied by a deafening sound, presenting a scene of utter destruction.
The volcano erupted, spewing endless cyan-green magma. After which, a cyan-green demon actually crawled out from the magma ocean!
"What is this?!" Su Qian's expression changed drastically as he looked at the cyan-green demon before him. Its aura was actually not the slightest bit weaker than his own!
A strange glint flashed in dusa's eyes. She turned to look at Xiao Yan, whose face was sowhat pale due to overexertion. This was actually created by a re Dou King!!
"Don't look at like that. This is the special characteristic of the Green Lotus Core Fla. Only in the volcanic magma veins can such heavenly might erupt. I'm just borrowing the power of the magma veins." Xiao Yan's face was pale, his body and mind exhausted, but his eyes held surprise and joy.
He hadn't expected that the Green Lotus Core Fla could unleash such terrifying power when erupting within the magma veins!
The Fallen Heart Fla could temper one's body and bones and accelerate cultivation. These were its inherent properties. But this also ant that the Fallen Heart Fla's nature was not combat-oriented, whereas the Green Lotus Core Fla could indeed borrow the power of the magma veins to unleash heavenly might.
Therefore, Xiao Yan executed a Soul Skill, rging his soul into the fla and creating this cyan fire demon.
Woo woo!! The cyan fire demon seed to have crawled out from the nine levels of hell beneath the earth's core, commanded to reap the life of the Fallen Heart Fla.
The cyan fire demon condensed a cyan fla heavy sword in its hand with a swoosh, and under the terrified gaze of the transparent Fire Python, struck heavily upon its body.
BOOM!
The Fire Python suffered a heavy blow; the intangible Heart Flas scattered. The power of this strike was actually not the slightest bit weaker than that of a Dou Ancestor!
The cyan fire demon instantly pounced toward the transparent Fire Python. The two massive Fire Spirits began a fierce battle, clashing like kaijus in a movie.
The two genuine Dou Ancestors saw Xiao Yan being so fierce and were dumbfounded. How did you gain the strength of a Dou Ancestor?! Now, are you the Dou Ancestor, or are we?!
Although Xiao Yan possessed the Spiritual Strength of a 7th-tier alchemist, Spiritual Strength was different from Dou Qi cultivation. Having Tier 7 Spiritual Strength and a Soul Skill didn't an he could possess the strength of a Dou Ancestor.
Spiritual Strength required a vessel to unleash its power. With his Dou King body and Dou Qi, even if his Spiritual Strength surpassed ordinary people, he couldn't possess the strength of a Dou Ancestor.
But now it was different. The Green Lotus Core Fla had taken control of this magma sea, allowing his Spiritual Strength to be utilized to its maximum potential!
The elders at the edge of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, who were jointly using formations to weaken the Fallen Heart Fla's power, all stared wide-eyed and open-mouthed.
"What kind of Dou Technique is this?!!" Xiao Yan's move shocked everyone present. Even the older generation couldn't recognize this Dou Technique. Such power made many hearts skip a beat.
Hiss hiss!! Angry screeches rang out again. A jade-like radiance suddenly appeared on the surface of the Fallen Heart Fla. The jade light flowed slowly, as if possessing intelligence. Not long after the jade light appeared, clusters of scorching, intangible flas abruptly surged out from the walls of fla, finally surrounding Xiao Yan from all directions.
When the transparent Fire Python spewed endless Heart Flas again, dusa's eyes narrowed. "Break for !"
Countless seven-colored rays transford into seven-colored light serpents. Innurable serpents charged forward one after another, as if to overturn everything. The fiery waves shattered explosively, creating a spectacular scene beyond description.
As the one with the highest cultivation among the three, First Elder Su Qian rapidly ford hand seals and shouted loudly, "Cold Sky Spear Formation!"
"Understood!"
All the elders at the entrance of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower instantly ford hand seals. The Dou Qi within their bodies rged into one. Guided by Su Qian's aura and with his arms spread wide, an ice spear instantly condensed in the sky.
The temperature of the entire Inner Academy suddenly plumted. One could imagine what kind of existence the Headmaster of Jia Nan Academy was to have left behind so many formations to deal with the Fallen Heart Fla.
Endless cold air gushed out throughout the Inner Academy. In this instant, countless ridian-like lines interwove, guided by the elders, and the spear grew larger and larger in the sky.
Bang bang bang!!!
The ice spear descended. Under such an ice spear, no one could escape or withstand its power, regardless of who they were.
Hiss hiss! The Fallen Heart Fla instantly felt a strong sense of crisis upon seeing that terrifying formation and the ice spear shooting toward it. It intended to retreat into the underground world to evade.
Woo woo!! Under Xiao Yan's control, the cyan fire demon ford from the Green Lotus Core Fla grabbed hold of it. Terrifying cyan flas filled the sky and firmly entangled the Fire Python.
dusa's eyes narrowed. Seven-colored light appeared, and the light transford into a long sword that pierced through the transparent Fire Python.
The mont dusa and Xiao Yan entangled the transparent Fire Python, the First Elder and the various elders, acting as the main force, brought down the ice spear.
The ice spear pierced through the transparent Fire Python. A terrifying chill spread out. This horrifying icy power even caused so of the magma to freeze!
Under the terrifying icy power, even the transparent Fire Python slowly froze, sealed in ice and unable to move.
Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed, and his brows furrowed.
Hiss! Other Heavenly Flas were actually surging out from within the Fire Python's body!
"Damn, it's the energy of the Heavenly Flas it absorbed earlier!"
It felt as if doomsday had arrived. With the addition of the Fallen Heart Fla, four kinds of Heavenly Flas erupted like the explosion of the Angry Buddha Lotus Fla, detonating a world-shaking blaze within the magma world!
BOOM!
At the critical mont, Xiao Yan unleashed the most potent power of the Green Lotus Core Fla. The cyan fire demon transford into a wall of fire and shielded the three of them.
Fiery waves roared in all directions, rolling forward with raging Heavenly Flas and unstoppable montum. Whether it was dusa's seven-colored light, First Elder Su Qian's defenses, or even Xiao Yan's Green Lotus Core Fla, they were all shattered upon impact.
The might of the Fallen Heart Fla's full-force eruption was terrifying, even more frightening than when Xiao Yan had used the Angry Buddha Lotus Fla. If this strike had erupted within the Inner Academy, one could imagine that the entire academy would have been destroyed in an instant!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The three figures, even after joining forces, were sent flying backward like kites with broken strings, crashing into distant walls. As the weakest among them, Xiao Yan spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Even three layers of defense couldn't withstand it!
'So strong... This is at least the strength of a high-star Dou Ancestor!' Xiao Yan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes sharp as he stared at the distant Fallen Heart Fla.
Even under such siege, and after being suppressed by the Inner Academy's elders, consuming much of its Heavenly Fla energy breaking through the Headmaster's seal, it could still erupt with such a terrifying attack. If it were at full strength, wouldn't it be at the peak of Dou Ancestor or even half-step Dou Venerate?!
Even the always cold, calm, and composed dusa revealed a trace of solemnity at this mont. This was far more powerful than the Green Lotus Core Fla she had subdued back then; they were not on the sa level at all.
But it was not surprising. The Green Lotus Core Fla that she had subdued was newly born. Naturally, there was a vast difference compared to this Fallen Heart Fla that had existed for who knows how many years.
Xiao Yan slowly flew forward a bit and transmitted his voice to Su Qian and dusa. "I'm going to charge directly into the body of the Fallen Heart Fla in a mont. Help distract it for a while."
! ! ! ! ! !
"Are you insane?! Charging directly into the Heavenly Fla—how is that any different from seeking death?!" Su Qian exclaid. He knew Xiao Yan was crazy, but he hadn't expected him to be this crazy! He finally understood how Xiao Yan had gained such powerful strength. He didn't even value his own life!
"Do you have confidence?" dusa's gazed at Xiao Yan's back with her beautiful eyes. For so reason, she felt that his obsession with power was even greater than before.
Xiao Yan shook his head. "No, but I have to give it a try."
dusa's delicate brows knitted slightly. She unexpectedly flew slowly to his side and softly said, "Don't die."
Xiao Yan turned his head to look at her. She remained expressionless and calmly said, "If you die, I won't get my pills."
Xiao Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, a black line appearing on his forehead, and said irritably, "Fine, fine. If I can refine the Fallen Heart Fla, I'll make your pills right away."
He wasted no more words. He knew he didn't have much ti left. Once the effect of the Skyfire Three Mysterious Change disappeared, he would imdiately enter a weakened state where his Dou Qi would be difficult to circulate. If he couldn't refine the Fallen Heart Fla by then, he would have to wait for the next opportunity.
Or perhaps there wouldn't even be a next ti. It was likely that as soon as the three of them left, the Fallen Heart Fla would imdiately dive into the earth's magma veins and escape. After all, there was no seal now.
Boom! Boom!!
dusa and Xiao Yan both transford into streaks of light and charged toward the Fallen Heart Fla. First Elder Su Qian sighed, ford hand seals once again, and shot out chains of ice to clear the path!
dusa condensed seven-colored light in her hands and struck violently. The terrifying seven-colored energy hit the body of the transparent Fire Python. This palm strike scattered quite a bit of the intangible Heart Fla on the Fire Python, exposing a large hole.
Black flas flickered in Xiao Yan's eyes. In his vision, the flas on the transparent Fire Python began to change. Within that transparent python's body, a palm-sized, sowhat milky-white fla serpent was continuously flickering. The little serpent's pupils were filled with intangible flas, and as its eyes moved, it appeared quite lively. Clearly, this little serpent possessed intelligence.
As Xiao Yan stared at the little fla serpent, the latter seed to notice him as well. Imdiately, a fierce light appeared in its snake eyes. Waves of terrifying intangible flas slowly rose from within its body.
'This is the Essence Fla of the Fallen Heart Fla?'
Under the siege of the three of them, the Fallen Heart Fla finally revealed the location of its Essence Fla!
Hiss!! Hiss!! As if terrified at being discovered, the transparent Fire Python no longer intended to devour Xiao Yan and attempted to dive into the earth's magma veins to escape.
"Trying to escape!"
A massive green lotus suddenly rose from the magma beneath the Fallen Heart Fla. A cluster of cyan flas enveloped the Fallen Heart Fla and sealed it within!
With his eyes locked onto the Essence Fla of the Fallen Heart Fla, Xiao Yan used the last of his Dou Qi to execute the Three Thousand Lightning Movent. As long as he could grasp the Essence Fla, he would truly capture the Fallen Heart Fla!
