Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 318 I, the Three Thousand Burning Flames, will never be a slave!

In the star field, a purple-black sea of ​​fire raged.

Xiao Bai stood in the void, with a phantom purple-gold dragon circling around him, facing the enormous Three Thousand Burning Flames from afar.

His gaze swept over the dragon scales atop the massive fire dragon's head, where countless black lines, resembling spider silk, formed a strange rune. These rune lines continued to extend backward, completely enveloping its enormous body.

"The seal left behind by the Pill Tower."

At this moment, he had some doubts. According to his calculations, the appearance of the old dragon emperor's dragon seal should have been able to draw out the dragon seal within the Three Thousand Burning Flames, thereby suppressing it.

However, the Three Thousand Burning Flames showed no abnormality whatsoever, as if the Dragon Seal did not exist within its body. It was unclear what was going on.

"Three Thousand Burning Flames, you were originally a strange flame raised by my clan. I have come to rescue you, to let you return to my clan and regain your freedom."

Xiao Bai's eyes flickered slightly, and he spoke with an air of righteous indignation.

"Since you've sensed their presence, why not submit?"

The starry sky suddenly fell silent.

"What...what did he just say?" Song Qing's voice trembled. "The Three Thousand Burning Flames are a strange fire his family keeps?!"

Cao Ying, Song Qing, and Dan Chen exchanged glances, their pupils shrinking as they looked at Xiao Bai in disbelief.

Cao Ying's beautiful eyes sparkled, her red lips slightly parted, clearly also greatly shocked by this information, while Dan Chen's big eyes were filled with shock.

It seems I've heard some incredible news.

"roar--!!!"

The Three Thousand Burning Flames suddenly let out a deafening roar, and the purplish-black flames swept out like a tsunami, causing the entire star field to tremble violently under its roar!

"Human, you're talking nonsense!"

The dragon's enormous eyes burned with boundless rage, its dragon might as well be a prison, making it almost impossible for everyone to breathe.

"I was born of heaven and earth, how could I be some plaything kept by the world?!"

Cao Ying and the others' expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly fled towards the edge of the starry sky. After traveling dozens of miles in one breath, they felt the pressure on their bodies lessen considerably.

"Heh. Using your dragon's might to intimidate me?"

Xiao Bai's playful words echoed in the starry sky, while the purple-gold light on the little dragon beside him surged, like a blazing sun rising slowly among the stars.

A terrifying dragon's might, carrying an overbearing and domineering aura, suddenly erupted and swept across the entire star field.

"Emperor"

The Three Thousand Blazing Flames trembled violently, and for a moment it felt an urge to submit. A single word uttered unconsciously from its mind.

The overwhelming pressure emanating from him was completely defeated by this purple-gold dragon's might, like ice and snow melting away!

"This is impossible!"

The dragon's enormous pupils contracted violently, its body coiled uneasily, and its purplish-black flames surged wildly.

It felt a kind of suppression from the depths of its bloodline, the absolute rule of the superior over the inferior!

Xiao Bai stood with his hands behind his back, his body radiating a brilliant purple-gold light, as if a dragon emperor had descended upon the world.

Staring intently at the fire dragon, his voice boomed like thunder:

"You wretched creature! Before my imperial seal, why do you not bow your head?!"

When Cao Ying and the other two saw this scene from a distance, their mouths gaped open, their faces filled with shock.

"What he said... that the Three Thousand Burning Flames are kept by their family, could it be true?" Cao Ying's narrow eyes were somewhat dazed, her red lips trembled slightly, and even her breathing became rapid.

Her gaze was fixed on the purple-gold light in the distance, within which she could vaguely see a domineering figure, radiating an aura that made the entire star field tremble.

That kind of pressure was more powerful and profound than any pressure emanating from any strong person she had ever seen before!

"impossible"

Song Qing's hands clenched tightly into her palms, her knuckles turning white, yet she remained oblivious, her eyes filled with shock, anger, and jealousy.

"The Three Thousand Burning Flames have existed in the star field for countless years. The Pill Tower spent countless efforts to seal it. How could it possibly be a strange flame that has been nurtured by someone?"

However, before he could finish speaking, the reaction of the Three Thousand Burning Flames made his doubts seem utterly inadequate.

"roar--!!"

The fire dragon roared to the sky, but this time, its roar carried a hint of fear!

Its massive dragon body trembled violently, and its purplish-black flames surged wildly, but they seemed to be suppressed by some invisible force and could no longer expand recklessly.

Even more shockingly, the dragon scales on its head, covered with sealing runes, began to crack inch by inch!

"Click—"

The crisp cracking sound was particularly jarring in the silent starfield.

Dan Chen's pupils contracted sharply, her slender fingers unconsciously clenched the hem of her clothes, and her voice was barely audible:

"The seals set up by the guild leaders seem to be crumbling?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the black runes on the Three Thousand Blazing Flames broke apart like rotten chains, turning into specks of black light and dissipating into the void.

As the seal collapsed, faint purple-gold marks appeared beneath the fire dragon's scales!

Those marks were ancient and mysterious, as if they had been imprinted on its flesh and blood since ancient times. Now, under the light of Xiao Bai's dragon seal, they were gradually awakening!

Outside, at the exit of the silver space gate.

"This is... Dragon's Might, could it be the Three Thousand Burning Flames?"

Xuan Kongzi and the other two looked extremely grim. Earlier, they had noticed a chilling pressure flash by within the spatial gate and were about to send someone in to investigate when they discovered that the silver gate's space was in disarray, making it impossible for even them to enter.

"It shouldn't be. We all know the dragon's might of the Three Thousand Burning Flames. Compared to this aura, it's nothing. But although this pressure is powerful, it feels somewhat ethereal and not solid to me. Otherwise, even with the three of us doing our best to maintain the star field space, it would probably have collapsed long ago!"

"What do we do now? We don't know what happened inside, and we can't get in. Those kids are probably..."

Xuan Yi looked at the chaotic silver gate, a hint of anxiety flashing in his eyes.

Little Fairy Doctor pursed her red lips, her gaze rather strange. She had also sensed that fleeting aura just now.

It seems somewhat similar to Zi Yan's!

Could it be that the girl has returned? And brought back a powerful member of her tribe?

As the expressions of the men in black robes varied, the sky above Saint Pill City suddenly became turbulent, and the originally clear sky was suddenly shrouded in a layer of purple-gold light, as if the sky had been stained by some supreme power.

Countless people looked up, their eyes filled with awe.

"What is that?!"

"Why did the weather suddenly change?"

"This oppressive force...it's terrifying!"

Within Saint Pill City, countless alchemists and powerful figures looked up, a sense of submission rising in their hearts, as if an unparalleled being was awakening beneath the purple-gold sky!

However, before anyone could react, a deafening roar faintly reached their ears—

"Humans! Don't even think about controlling me!!!"

The voice was like a thunderclap, filled with boundless rage, yet also mixed with a trace of indescribable terror!

Immediately afterwards, the entire sky was suddenly covered by purplish-black flames, and the raging power of the strange fire swept across the sky, as if it would burn the entire Holy Pill City to ashes!

"This is... the aura of a different kind of fire?!"

"Rumor has it that a spatial rift covers the starry sky above the Pill Tower, sealing away the Three Thousand Burning Flames. Could this be true?!"

"The flames are purplish-black, faintly tinged with starlight; it's definitely the Three Thousand Burning Flames!"

Countless people were horrified, and the three giants of the Dan Tower were even more shocked.

They instantly recognized the owner of the voice—it was the Three Thousand Burning Flames sealed within the star field!

"How is this possible?!" Xuan Kongzi's pupils shrank sharply, his voice low and urgent.

"The star field seal hasn't been broken, how could it possibly emit a sound?!"

Tian Leizi's expression kept changing: "And judging from its tone, it seems to be at a disadvantage?!"

The moment this thought crossed their minds, a tremendous storm raged within them.

What kind of existence is the Three Thousand Burning Flames? It is a terrifying strange flame that even they could only seal, but could not completely subdue!

Now it's roaring, struggling, and even...fearing?!

"What exactly happened in the star field?!"

Xuan Yi's beautiful eyes flashed quickly as she looked at the chaotic silver gate, thinking of that incredibly confident little guy.

Could it really be him?!

Before they could react, the entire star field suddenly trembled violently, as if it might collapse at any moment!

The purplish-black sea of ​​fire in the sky seemed about to pour down and fall directly onto the entire city of Shengdan.

"Oh no! The star field is about to collapse!"

Xuan Kongzi's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly shouted, "Go all out and maintain the star field space, otherwise Saint Pill City will probably turn into a sea of ​​fire today."

The three of them immediately became extremely solemn and dared not be negligent. Their fighting spirit surged wildly, and their vast soul power transformed into an invisible barrier, firmly stabilizing the star field.

However, the impact from within the star field grew stronger and stronger, as if an ancient ferocious beast was frantically crashing against the spatial barrier!

"Damn it! What on earth happened inside?!" Tian Lei Zi gritted his teeth and roared, veins bulging on his forehead.

Deep within the star field.

The blazing purple-gold sun soared into the sky, its brilliant light illuminating the entire star field.

The dragon's might is vast and powerful, suppressing everything!

Xiao Bai stood in the void, his robes fluttering, his body like an ancient reef, rows of purplish-black flames like towering waves, constantly crashing towards him.

A phantom purple-gold dragon hovered around him, radiating endless brilliance, while the purple-black flames could not get close to him at all.

Opposite him, the massive dragon body of the Three Thousand Burning Flames was struggling frantically, its purplish-black flames surging like a raging sea, yet it could not break free from the suppression emanating from the purple-gold dragon seal between its brows!

"roar--!!!"

The fire dragon roared to the sky, its eyes filled with rage, yet its enormous body was shrinking uncontrollably.

"No, impossible! I am the fire of the stars, the undying fire, how could I submit to you?!"

He was consumed by hatred. If it were a direct battle, having broken the seal of the Pill Tower, he wouldn't be afraid of this mere Dou Zong ant, let alone the three giants of the Pill Tower themselves.

But the dragon mark on his forehead, facing the domineering dragon's might in purple-gold light, constantly gave him a feeling of trembling submission, which he could not resist at all. He could only watch helplessly as his body submitted uncontrollably.

"I'm not reconciled. I'm not reconciled."

Xiao Bai remained expressionless, the silver vertical stripe between his brows gleaming with an eerie light.

Through the Dragon Seal, he could feel his control over the Three Thousand Burning Flames increasing. If this continued, he would be able to easily control this strange flame, which ranked ninth on the strange flame ranking list, in just a few hours.

But glancing at the unstable space of the star field, which was already teetering on the brink of collapse under the impact of rings of purplish-black flames, his eyes flickered, and he no longer hesitated.

With a thunderous roar beneath his feet, he took a step forward and arrived in front of the Three Thousand Blazing Fire Dragon Head. He raised his arm, intending to grab at the void beneath the scales on its forehead.

There, a small fire dragon coiled, its face contorted with rage, its eyes burning with hatred that seemed to boil the heavens and seas.

"I, the Three Thousand Blazing Flames, will never be enslaved!"

Xiao Bai swept the vertical line between his eyebrows across his body, his expression changed slightly, five-colored lightning burst out beneath his feet, and his figure disappeared in an instant before the dragon head of flames, leaving behind a series of afterimages in the air.

"Haha. Weren't you going to control me? Why are you running away now?!"

Seeing Xiao Bai disappear in the blink of an eye, the Three Thousand Burning Flames couldn't help but laugh heartily, its voice carrying a hint of rampant madness.

"Quickly, crush the teleportation orb! The Three Thousand Burning Flames are about to self-destruct!!"

When Cao Ying and the others saw the fire dragon, which had been shrinking, suddenly expand and the sea of ​​fire that had filled the entire star field was rapidly shrinking, they were stunned for a moment. Then, seeing Xiao Bai's retreating movements, they instantly understood what was happening, and their expressions changed drastically.

"It's useless. The teleportation orb is unusable!"

Looking at the teleportation bead crushed to pieces in her hand, Song Qing glanced around blankly, her face turning pale.

"It's really useless!!"

Cao Ying looked at the shattered teleportation bead in her hand, her voice filled with unprecedented panic.

She never imagined that she would one day be so close to death.

Dan Chen didn't speak, but just bit her pale lips and stared blankly at the powder in her hand.

Song Qing's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at the expanding fire dragon in the distance, his eyes filled with rage, and he screamed wildly:

"Damn it! If it weren't for him, the Three Thousand Burning Flames wouldn't have self-destructed; if it weren't for him, we wouldn't be in this desperate situation."

"Song Qing! Shut up! This has nothing to do with him!" Cao Ying bit her lip and interrupted him sharply.

Song Qing's words made her, who was always proud, feel extremely sad.

She knew that she had begged her teacher to bring about this situation.

"At least one person is still sober."

A figure suddenly appeared in front of them, calmly glanced at Song Qing, and said indifferently:

"I thought all the younger generation of Danta were like this. Now that's the case, I don't need to feel guilty towards the three presidents of Danta!"

Of the three giants of the Pill Tower, Xuan Yi goes without saying. Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi both have goodwill towards him. Regardless of the reason for this goodwill, Xiao Bai has accepted this kindness.

So, even though Song Qing had been constantly tripping him up, and he could have killed her eight hundred times over if she were outside, he still chose to save her from the mouth of the Three Thousand Burning Flames in the critical moment.

He just didn't want the Pill Tower to suffer any losses because of his entry into the Starfield, even though he disliked this person very much.

"Mr. Xiao Bai! We..."

When Cao Ying saw Xiao Bai appear, her heart skipped a beat. She knew that if anyone could save them now, it would be him.

Dan Chen suddenly looked up, her eyes gleaming with a faint light, as if she had seen a ray of hope in despair.

"Don't panic, just wait."

Xiao Bai glanced at the two of them, then looked at the purplish-black fire dragon that had swelled to its limit, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.

If it weren't for the worry that these people would perish in this star field, Xiao Bai wouldn't have needed to retreat at all. No matter how fiercely that guy talks, he knows exactly what he's planning.
