Eternal madness

Chapter 218 The Styx Alliance!
"In that case, why doesn't Elder Su go and kill that Netherworld Saint?" Xiao Li asked.

"It's not that easy. Although Father's strength is amazing and he defeated that Netherworld Saint with ease, it's still not enough to completely kill a Dou Sheng powerhouse."

After all, her father was only a mid-stage one-star Dou Sheng, but with his soul power approaching the late stage of the Heavenly Realm, he could put up a fight even against a late-stage one-star Dou Sheng.

However, that Netherworld Saint had some tricks up his sleeve. His peak cultivation level was probably around the mid-stage of a two-star Dou Sheng, and his soul power had reached the late stage of the Heavenly Realm!
The father went to the Tianming Sect to investigate but was discovered by them, so the father plans to improve his cultivation level before eliminating them.

Although joining forces with Ancestor Huoyun could also take down that Netherworld Saint, Ancestor Huoyun's injuries have been healed by you, and he is now a mid-stage One-Star Dou Sheng expert, whose cultivation should be slightly higher than Father's.

However, working alongside Patriarch Huoyun clearly suggests something fishy is going on, and it could easily attract the attention of the Soul Hall. Therefore, it's best to act discreetly!

Tianyinzi explained the reason for the matter.

Before Xiao Li could say anything more, a Dou Zong elder rushed in from outside the main hall with a secret letter.

"Reporting to the Supreme Elder! Urgent intelligence!"

Tianyinzi's eyelids twitched violently, sensing something bad was about to happen! Tianyinzi took the letter into her hand, then opened it to read.

"Ugh~ What kind of mess is this!" Tianyinzi pinched her brow and said speechlessly.

"What's wrong? Let me see." Xiao Li stepped forward and took the letter from Tian Yinzi's hand.

"Hmm? The Heavenly Nether Sect, Ice River Valley, Yellow Springs Pavilion, and other forces have formed an alliance, temporarily called the Nether River Alliance! What's going on? Has our alliance been exposed?" Xiao Li frowned.

Tianyinzi also said with a headache, "I don't know, but there are no secrets in the world. If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place. If they know, then they know. How many strong people do they have?"
"If Father and Ancestor Huoyun join forces, they can be completely wiped out."

Xiao Li nodded: "Give me some more time, and I should be able to advance to the Dou Sheng level!"

Tianyinzi raised an eyebrow: "You're so confident? You're only a beginner-level half-saint right now, and even after taking the Four Symbols Sacred Essence Pill, you'll only reach the intermediate-level half-saint."

What are your plans for promotion next?

Xiao Li: "First, use pills to reach the advanced semi-saint level, then take the essence of the Thousand Demon Saint to break through. There is a high probability that you can reach the Dou Sheng level."

"Once I reach the Dou Sheng level, my success rate in refining ninth-grade precious pills will greatly increase!"

Tianyinzi's lips twitched. He felt that he had improved very quickly, but he did not expect that this kid's improvement was even more outrageous.

"Don't forget me when you refine a ninth-grade precious pill in the future," Tianyinzi said with a smile.

"Of course not, Uncle Jinyi, don't worry, I'll definitely give you the best!" Xiao Li said with a grin.

"What are you planning to do next?" Tianyinzi asked.

"Go into seclusion. Take one Four Symbols Sacred Essence Pill first, then I have things to do." Xiao Li stroked his chin and said, "Oh right! There are also pills from Burning Flame Valley and Flower Sect. Uncle Jin Yi, you can give them to them now."

Xiao Li handed a storage ring to Tian Yinzi.

"Oh, so these are the pills they need. Hehe, although your price is more affordable than the Pill Tower's, it's still quite a hefty price. It's only thanks to the Flower Sect and the Burning Flame Valley's long-standing traditions that we can afford to supply you," Tianyinzi laughed.

"If resources cannot be converted into cultivation, they can only be taken away by others. No matter how many resources you have, you can't protect them without strong strength. Alright, Uncle Jinyi, I'm going into seclusion." Xiao Li bid farewell to Tianyinzi and went into seclusion.

. . . . . . in the secret room,
Xiao Li was not in a hurry to take the Four Symbols Sacred Essence Pill. Instead, he took out a milky white bead from his storage ring.

"Purifying Lotus Demon Flame! The third-ranked Strange Flame on the Strange Flame Ranking! A unique Strange Flame on the continent, it's truly captivating."

The bead in Xiao Li's hand is the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, or more accurately, a fraction of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame. This fraction of the demon flame was collected by Xiao Kong when he went to the Demon Flame Space to help Xiao Li.

The Pure Lotus Demon Flame is incredibly powerful. According to Xiao Kong, it possesses the strength of a peak five-star Dou Sheng. With the help of the environment of the Demon Flame Space, it can unleash power comparable to a six-star Dou Sheng.

Fortunately, Xiao Kong's strength had recovered to the early stage of Seven Star Dou Sheng, otherwise dealing with this Pure Lotus Demon Flame would have been quite troublesome.

Xiao Kong forcibly stripped away a portion of the demonic fire's essence and collected the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire fragments from the demonic fire space, finally sealing them in a special container, which is the bead in Xiao Li's hand.

The Pure Lotus Demon Flame in Xiao Li's hand is equivalent to a flame at the level of a half-saint.

Xiao Li's Yin-Yang Heart Flame is close to the level of a half-saint. The Yin-Yang Heart Flame already has sufficient intelligence, but it is extremely difficult to advance it to the saint realm.

It seems that only the top ten Strange Flames on the Strange Flame Ranking have the possibility of entering the Saint Realm, while the top five Strange Flames can easily enter the Saint Realm!

"According to Ancestor Xiao Xuan, if we want the Yin-Yang Heart Flame to advance again, we must devour fire. Only by devouring stronger flames can the strange fire become stronger. This is the nature of strange fires! In that case, let's give it a try."

Xiao Li took out a crimson scroll, which was given to him by Xiao Xuan. It was a plan that Xiao Xuan had developed to help Xiao Li advance his strange fire. One of the plans was to let the Yin Yang Heart Flame devour a more powerful flame to advance!

"This half-saint level Pure Lotus Demon Flame is extremely high in both energy and level! Yin Yang, can you handle it?" Xiao Li said slowly.

Then, the Yin-Yang Heart Flame emerged from Xiao Li's body. As it watched the Pure Lotus Demon Flame split into flames, its body trembled instinctively.

Indeed, the Yin-Yang Twin Flames are ranked twenty-first among the strange flames, while the Pure Lotus Demon Flame is ranked third, a significant difference. Furthermore, the Pure Lotus Demon Flame is unique!
The gap is simply too great; apart from the legendary Emperor Flame, it is impossible to suppress the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

"It can work!" Yin Yang Heart Flame spoke in human language, its dragon eyes fixed firmly on the milky white bead!
"Then come on!"

Xiao Li gave the order, and the Yin-Yang Heart Flame transformed into a giant fire dragon, swallowing the milky white bead in Xiao Li's hand in one gulp.

The bead shattered, and then milky white flames began to engulf the Yin-Yang Heart Flame. Sensing hostility, the split flames of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame immediately launched a counterattack! The Yin-Yang Heart Flame trembled all over from the onslaught of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

Xiao Li and others were also affected by the attack of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

"As expected of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame! Even its divided flames are so powerful! But don't underestimate my bond with Yin and Yang!"

Xiao Li's fighting spirit began to be transmitted to the Yin-Yang Heart Flame. Sensing its master's power, the Yin-Yang Heart Flame immediately began to fight back, constantly plundering and devouring the energy of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

This wisp of Pure Lotus Demon Flame had little intelligence, only instinct. Under the combined attack of Yin Yang Heart Flame and Xiao Li, it could do nothing but passively defend itself.

To put it bluntly, it was just a wisp of flame without any intelligence, only its energy and level were astonishing, but in the end it was no match for Xiao Li!

I don’t know how long it took,
Xiao Li was as still as an old monk in meditation, while a black and white fire dragon coiled around his body!
The black and white fire dragon exuded an astonishing aura!
