People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 202 Heavenly Flame Venerable: Family members, does anyone understand?

Just moments ago, the Fallen Heart Flame was running rampant at the top of the tower, frantically crashing into the barrier. In an instant, it was like a frightened trapped beast, fleeing in a sorry state back to the depths of the magma at the bottom of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

This dramatic turn of events left the onlookers dumbfounded, and even the usually composed elders showed expressions of shock.

Everyone looked up at the three figures high in the sky, their hearts filled with horror.

With just a few simple tricks, he was able to instill such fear in the unruly Fallen Heartflame.

Such cultivation is simply unfathomable!
Su Qian could not hide her astonishment, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Who could have imagined that in just two short years, the naive boy who once needed his protection and care would have transformed to such an extent that even he, the elder who had seen countless people, could hardly fathom his true nature.

With a sigh in her heart, Su Qian turned her gaze to Chen Xiao's side.

He knew Little Fairy Doctor, but Qinglin was somewhat of a stranger to him.

At this moment, Su Qian would never connect the Qing Lin in front of him with the little girl who came to Canaan Academy with Xun'er back then.

The fact that Zi Yan was not seen puzzled Su Qian.

But judging from Chen Xiao's calm expression, it was clear that the girl was definitely alright.

Even if something happens, it's a good thing.

Otherwise, given the relationship between Chen Xiao and Zi Yan, he certainly wouldn't be able to laugh.

With this in mind, Su Qian was no longer in a hurry to ask.

"Elder, let me deal with the hidden dangers of this Fallen Heart Flame first, and we can catch up later. There are several auras coming towards the inner courtyard; they should be the vice deans of the outer courtyard," Chen Xiaoyao said, cupping his hands in greeting.

Back in Zixiao City, Hai Bodong was equally curious, and they could get together afterward to catch up.

This also makes things much easier.

Right now, the important thing is to focus on the main business.

Su Qian nodded slightly. "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Trusting Chen Xiao, Su Qian had no doubts whatsoever.

Most importantly, he was 100% certain that Chen Xiao had no interest in the Fallen Heart Flame.

Even during his time studying in the inner courtyard, Chen Xiao rarely entered the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

"Let's seal off the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower before we come out. One to two days should be enough."

"it is good!"

Having received Su Qian's approval, Chen Xiao didn't say much. He exchanged a glance with Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin beside him, took a step, and his figure disappeared from the spot.

...

The Heavenly Flame Refining Tower is located underground.

The scorching wind howled past their ears, and three figures appeared like ghosts.

Chen Xiao's fighting spirit surged, instantly creating a domain that isolated all heat waves from the outside.

Upon landing on the surface of the lava sea, a hissing sound immediately rang out. Within a ten-zhang radius centered on Chen Xiao, the slowly flowing crimson lava instantly solidified, transforming into a patch of dark reefs.

"It's really unexpected that Canaan Academy is built on a sea of ​​lava."

Looking around at her surroundings, Little Fairy Doctor exclaimed in amazement.

Both she and Qinglin were visiting this place for the first time, and they were inevitably amazed by the underground scenery.

“Strange places breed strange things. Back in the Tagor Desert, there was also a blue lotus earth core flame. I even activated the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil there and subdued a two-headed fire spirit serpent. I never expected that the environment where the Fallen Heart Flame is located would be like this.”

As Qinglin recalled the past, a nostalgic smile immediately appeared on her pretty face.

Although many years have passed, the scene of yesteryear is still vivid in my mind.

It was from the moment she activated the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil that she realized her own specialness, and gradually developed the confidence that she could always stay by Chen Xiao's side and not become a burden.

That's why she was able to say she was very lucky when she first met Little Fairy Doctor.

That was no joke; Qinglin truly believed it.

If she didn't possess the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil, she probably wouldn't be able to keep up with Chen Xiao's pace by now.

Chen Xiao nodded with a smile, then asked with some curiosity, "Is that two-headed fire spirit snake still around?"

Upon hearing this, Qinglin's smile widened even more, and three blue flowers suddenly bloomed in his eyes, activating the Three Flower Pupil Space.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Xiao and Little Fairy Doctor saw a small, red snake with two heads emerge from it.

Under the watchful eyes of the three, the crimson snake transformed into a girl dressed in a red robe.

Its appearance bears a slight resemblance to Qinglin.

"Master!" The girl bowed respectfully.

Qinglin nodded slightly and explained to Chen Xiao and Little Fairy Doctor with a smile: "Ling'er was subdued by you, young master. She has been with me the longest. Unfortunately, her bloodline is average. Normally, she can only reach the sixth level. I used a lot of high-level snake-type magical beast essence blood on her, but it only helped her reach the seventh level. I once gave her freedom, but she was unwilling to leave, so she has been following me ever since."

Without a doubt, Qinglin is a sentimental and affectionate person.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be so hung up on Chen Xiao.

The same goes for this Fire Spirit Serpent. Thanks to Qinglin's care, it has a similar effect of "when one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven."

As for the Fire Serpent's choice, it is easy to understand whether from an emotional or economic perspective.

Sometimes, choice is indeed more important than effort.

"That's fine, put it away for now." Chen Xiao nodded with a smile.

Although the Fire Spirit Serpent has reached the seventh rank, it can no longer provide any assistance to Qing Lin in battle; it can only serve as a companion.

Furthermore, Qinglin controls her effortlessly, so there is no question of her occupying the Three Flower Pupils' space.

Therefore, it's harmless.

Qinglin nodded slightly and put away the Fire Spirit Serpent.

Their gaze returned to the lava sea before them. This was the home ground of the Fallen Heart Flame, where it could unleash a barrage of attacks without regard for its own resources.

Unfortunately, at this moment, the Fallen Heartflame was holed up in the magma and showed no sign of emerging.

This is not hard to understand; on the surface, Chen Xiao and the other two are three Dou Zun.

If we add the puppets controlled by Qinglin's Three Flower Pupils space and those controlled by Chen Xiao, the number of Dou Zun-level combatants is close to ten!

Such power would be enough to sweep away some of the well-known and powerful forces in the Central Plains, let alone deal with the Fallen Heart Flame.

"This magma sea is of unknown size, and the Fallen Heart Flame is hidden within it. Finding her will not be easy."

Although Little Fairy Doctor said it wasn't easy, she still had a smile on her face.

Clearly, this little thing is no challenge for them.

Chen Xiao nodded slightly and casually placed a talisman on the spot.

"Let's leave that aside for now and take care of something else. There are plenty of good things in this magma."

Without much explanation, Chen Xiao headed straight for the lava.

Little Fairy Doctor and Qinglin followed closely behind.

Concealing their fighting spirit, the Bone Spirit Cold Flame transformed into a barrier around the three, isolating them from the magma's invasion and ensuring they remained completely unaffected despite being within it. Deep within the magma, the color differed significantly from the surface; venturing deeper, one was greeted by a monotonous, deep crimson expanse.

The three of them went in very quickly, but even at this pace, half an hour passed and the scene before them remained the same: this lava field seemed to have no end.

Chen Xiao released his soul perception, carefully sensed the surroundings, and slightly adjusted his direction.

After going deeper for another fifteen minutes, the color of the surrounding lava finally changed, adding a chilling dark hue.

Just then, a miraculous scene unfolded!

Suddenly, the magma to the lower right of the three people began to move slowly and strangely. Then, a transparent halo emitting a faint light emerged from the magma vortex.

The aperture was transparent, allowing the three people to see clearly inside.

When the three of them looked inside, both Little Fairy Doctor and Qinglin showed a look of surprise on their pretty faces.

Immediately, the two women looked at Chen Xiao.

Seeing that he looked calm and composed, as if he had expected it all along, they finally became convinced that this might be the good stuff Chen Xiao had been talking about.

Little Fairy Doctor and Qinglin looked again, and there was nothing else in the circle of light. There was only a skeleton that had turned into white bones, and the skeleton emitted a faint glow.

The most bizarre thing was that a cluster of flames was floating on the skeleton!
That cluster of flames was completely transparent, as if it were something formless and intangible.

Ordinary people might be unfamiliar with this thing, but they had seen it with their own eyes before. This invisible and intangible flame was none other than the Fallen Heart Flame!
"How can it be so weak? No! This is..."

It is immediately apparent that this Fallen Heart Flame is quite different from the one that previously swaggered around in the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

The feeling was like that of a fierce and menacing man versus a helpless infant in swaddling clothes.

Noticing this difference, Little Fairy Doctor frowned slightly. Then, a guess popped into her mind, and she turned to look at Chen Xiao with a look of astonishment.

The strange flames on the Strange Flame Ranking, apart from the top three, are not unique.

Little Fairy Doctor already knew about this.

Chen Xiao controls a Bone Spirit Cold Flame, and the Medicine Venerable controls another; these are the examples before us.

Therefore, looking at the Fallen Heart Flame in the halo, Little Fairy Doctor had already guessed the truth.

"Indeed, this is a newly formed Fallen Heartflame!"

Calling them freshmen isn't quite accurate.

After all, the time it took for this little Fallen Heart Flame to be born was more than ten Chen Xiaos combined.

Compared to the one that supplies the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower for cultivation, this one in front of us can be described as a newborn.

Just as Little Fairy Doctor was about to ask a question, a scorching gust of wind quietly swept towards the three of them.

"court death!"

Qing Lin suddenly turned around, and with a light shout, his fighting spirit condensed into an invisible hand that grabbed out fiercely, as if he wanted to capture the culprit and torture him.

With Qing Lin, a high-level Dou Zun, personally taking action, the result was as expected.

Under the watchful eyes of the three, a strange creature was brought back by Qinglin.

Its overall shape is humanoid, and its body is entirely red, the same color as the surrounding magma. Hiding among it is the best camouflage, making it difficult to be seen with the naked eye.

Its crimson body was covered with dense red scales, and behind it was a red scale tail about half a zhang long.

It stood upright on its two legs, with unusually large feet and a round head. Its small eyes revealed undisguised ferocity. It was gripped by a hand formed from Qinglin's fighting spirit, and its rather large mouth was slightly open in pain, revealing its dense array of sharp teeth.

The thing looks just like a lizardman that can walk upright!
"Jiji!"

Bringing them close, the fire lizardman let out a piercing scream, whether it was a threat or a plea for mercy, and thrashed about at the three of them, but could not break free of his restraints.

"Strength roughly at the Dou Huang level."

"What kind of creature is this?"

Looking at the Flame Lizardman, Little Fairy Doctor and Qinglin were both greatly surprised, truly experiencing what it means to have a vast world full of wonders.

"A special race that can only live in magma. They have something similar to a pill inside their bodies, let's call it Fire Pill for now. We can collect some later. People with fire attributes can also use it to enhance their strength," Chen Xiao explained.

Before he acquired the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, Chen Xiao had known of the existence of this creature but had no interest in it whatsoever.

But things are different now. With the Bone Spirit Cold Flame in hand and the inheritance of the Dao of Arrays, the Fire Core within the Flame Lizard's body can play a significant role.

Of course, Chen Xiao was referring to those of higher rank; those at the Dou Huang level in front of him could be ignored.

Little Fairy Doctor nodded gently.

Qinglin pointed a finger and quickly found the fire pill that Chen Xiao had mentioned inside the fire lizardman's body.

"Very violent fire-attribute energy, similar to the magic core inside a magical beast, which ordinary people probably cannot absorb directly."

After examining the crimson bead in his hand, Qinglin handed it to Little Fairy Doctor for inspection.

“That’s true, but it’s not a problem for people with different flames. After we finish dealing with this, we’ll collect more so we can give Xun’er a gift next time we see her.”

Instead of rushing to acquire the Fire Pill, Chen Xiao turned his gaze to the circle of light below.

Extending a hand, Chen Xiao gently pushed it aside, and the transparent light circle split open, revealing a passage.

Chen Xiao's figure blurred as he flashed into the room.

After Little Fairy Doctor and Qinglin followed them in, the passage healed once again.

This halo was a barrier set up by some unlucky guy before he died, and its strength has become very weak due to the erosion of time.

The reason they've been able to hold out until now is simply because those fire lizardmen don't understand spatial power.

Within the aura, the magma outside was completely blocked. Chen Xiao could clearly sense an unusual fluctuation scanning his body, which then recoiled as if startled.

Upon noticing this, Chen Xiao couldn't help but chuckle.

This Venerable Heavenly Fire is quite shrewd.

If they sense the strength of the three of them and still dare to scan so recklessly, they will truly be courting death.

Chen Xiao's gaze shifted, finally settling on the 'mysterious' skeleton floating in the center.

Looking at the small Fallen Heart Flame floating above the bones, Chen Xiao raised his hand and made a gesture.

Drawn by the force, the Little Fallen Heart Flame immediately flew towards Chen Xiao.

However, the Little Fallen Heart Flame had only flown less than a meter when it was pulled back from behind by some mysterious force, and remained suspended in mid-air.

"Ok?"

Chen Xiao frowned slightly, about to increase his strength, but he felt that the mysterious force that was pulling against him seemed to have given up and quietly dissipated, completely abandoning its resistance, allowing the Little Fallen Heart Flame to be drawn into his palm.

Just as the Little Fallen Heart Flame fell into Chen Xiao's palm, a dazzling white light suddenly erupted from within the skeleton. Then, as if worried about causing a misunderstanding, it quickly began to shrink and wriggle, finally transforming into a phantom old man's figure.

The figure was dressed in a white robe, with snow-white hair and beard.

His face was aged, and a faint glint of light flickered in his calm eyes. His emptiness and tranquility changed with the times, and his whole being exuded boundless compassion.

However, at this moment, the old man's face was filled with a helpless, bitter smile.

"Yaotianhuo greets the three fellow Daoists."
