Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

Chapter 100 Star Domain, Three Thousand Burning Flames

Today is the day when the top ten contestants of the Pill Gathering will enter the Star Domain to subdue the Three Thousand Burning Flames. Many people are very curious about who will win the Three Thousand Burning Flames.

On the plaza outside the Dan Tower, a voice announced, "Those entering the star field, prepare."

Xuan Kongzi stood on the void, looking down from above, his deep voice resounding throughout the world.

Whoosh whoosh!

The top ten contestants in this alchemy competition all flew in the sky, but most of them were standing on the void, except for Xiao Li, who had a pair of pitch-black battle qi wings behind him.

As soon as Xuan Kongzi and the other two saw the people arrive, they began to act. Their hand seals were as fast as lightning, and a vast wave of soul energy spread out from their bodies. Soon after, everyone saw that the void sky suddenly began to fluctuate violently.

Then, a pale silver spatial gate appeared before everyone's eyes.

Xuan Kongzi: "On this trip, an elder from the Pill Tower will accompany you. The elder will explain the rules to you in detail."

As soon as Xuan Kongzi finished speaking, an old man in white robes appeared before everyone: "I am Dan Xun. I will be leading you into the Star Domain this time. Remember, once inside, just follow me. Anyone who disobeys the rules will have their qualification for entering the Star Domain revoked."

The elder's surname is Dan, so he is most likely a member of the Dan family!

Xiao Li looked at the Dan family member next to him. The Dan family member's eyes had indeed changed, showing joy, respect, and a hint of fear.

"Everyone, let's go."

Elder Danxun was the first to enter the spatial gate, followed by Venerable Tianhe, who led all the top ten contestants of the Alchemy Gathering into the spatial gate and disappeared from everyone's sight.

The void space suddenly rippled, and then eleven figures appeared. As they came into view, Xiao Li instantly felt a scorching heat coming towards him. At the same time, the Yin-Yang Heart Flame within his body also suddenly became scorching hot.

This situation caused Xiao Li's heart to pound. This was the first time Xiao Li had encountered such a situation. It was probably what would happen when one kind of strange fire met another kind of strange fire!

The so-called star field is a space forcibly torn apart by the three giants of the Pill Tower. This kind of space is naturally not as good as the Pill Realm, and it is particularly desolate.

A faint, scorching mist permeated the surroundings, and faint rays of light seeped into the space, making the light here appear slightly cold.

"Is this the power of stars?" Xiao Li sensed the surrounding aura.

The Three Thousand Burning Flames, also known as the Star Flames, are formed by relying on the power of stars. The places where the Three Thousand Burning Flames reside are naturally rich in the power of stars.

Elder Danxun said, "Follow me, don't get separated. This star field exists in spatial rifts, some of which connect directly to the void. You should understand the consequences if you venture in."

Just as Xiao Li was about to follow, a hand suddenly landed on his shoulder. Xiao Li turned his head and saw that it was Venerable Tianhe.

"What's wrong with Elder Jiang?" Xiao Li asked.

"It's nothing. It's just that you're just a little Dou Huang. I'll take you with me. If you get banished to the void, the continent will lose an excellent alchemist."

Besides, after all these years, I've finally met a worthy comrade. If you were to die, who would I challenge?

Venerable Tianhe truly regarded Xiao Li as a rival. Although their cultivation levels and ages differed greatly, it did not prevent their alchemy skills from becoming similar. Venerable Tianhe eagerly anticipated a thrilling contest between Xiao Li and himself once Xiao Li became a powerful figure.

"Venerable Tianhe, remember to take me with you. Although I am still a bit behind the two of you, I will also practice my alchemy skills properly after we return and have another match with you." Chixiaozi, who was not far away, also spoke up.

"Oh? Sure, come find me at Tianhe Mountain in the Southern Region then, I'll be waiting for your challenge there! Hahahaha." Venerable Tianhe laughed loudly.

Several other alchemists didn't understand why these three eighth-grade alchemists had such a good relationship.

Elder Danxun smiled, for this was the true nature of an alchemist: purely refining medicine, demonstrating true skill through practice, rather than using their status as an alchemist to do shady things.

The group flew rapidly through the void, head down, for about ten minutes.

Suddenly, Xiao Li felt the Yin-Yang Heart Flame within his body surge violently, indicating that the Three Thousand Burning Flames were very close to him.

Soon, a blinding burst of light appeared, and the object within that light finally came into clear view.

"Damn it." Chi Xiaozi cursed again.

The others were also stunned; it was the first time they had ever seen such a scene!

Within the light was a colossal dragon whose length was unseen. Its eyes were closed, and its body was coiled and twisted. A strange, purplish-black flame swirled around its massive body, and as the flame rose, the surrounding space seemed to distort.

In the vast void, a giant dragon coiled, with purplish-black flames constantly seeping out from its body, burning tirelessly. This magnificent scene evoked an overwhelming sense of awe.

"Three Thousand Burning Flames!" Xiao Li exclaimed in shock. The Yin-Yang Heart Flame in his hand was originally formed when the Yin-Yang Twin Flames devoured a Fallen Heart Flame sub-flame, giving the Yin-Yang Twin Flames the characteristics of the Fallen Heart Flame and transforming it into the Yin-Yang Heart Flame.

Xiao Li had seen the Nine Dragons Thunderfire before. The Yin Yang Heart Flame was inferior to the Nine Dragons Thunderfire in quality, but it was on par with it in terms of level. The two were like two equally unwilling to admit defeat to each other.

However, this Three Thousand Burning Flames caused Xiao Li's Yin-Yang Heart Flame to tremble.

As Xiao Li gazed at the enormous dragon body, something suddenly occurred to him.

Hiss~ I remember that the Three Thousand Burning Flames was a strange flame of a certain ancient dragon powerhouse, and to subdue it, one would need the dragon seal of the ancient dragon clan.

Forget it, what does it have to do with me? I already have the Yin-Yang Heart Flame, and this Three Thousand Burning Flames is not meant for me. No matter how strong it is, I can never subdue it.

This Three Thousand Burning Flames, at the Dou Zun level, is destined to be unattainable for me.

Elder Danxun then looked at the top ten contestants of the Pill Gathering, and first looked at Xiao Li: "Young friend Wang Li, why don't you go first? Anyway, you already have a different kind of fire, and it's impossible for you to subdue the Three Thousand Burning Flames, but you are still second place."

"We can't let you come all this way for nothing. I'll escort you and let you get up close and personal with the Three Thousand Burning Flames. It'll broaden your experience. What do you all think?"

"We will follow the elder's orders." The other participants had no objections.

After entering the star field, they all regarded the others as competitors, but excluded Xiao Li, because Xiao Li already had a different kind of fire, and his presence was just a formality.

"OK."

Elder Danxun grabbed Xiao Li's shoulder, using his own battle qi to protect Xiao Li as he approached the Three Thousand Burning Flames.

Just as Xiao Li and Elder Danxun arrived before the dragon head of the Three Thousand Burning Flames, the Three Thousand Burning Flames' enormous dragon eyes suddenly opened.

Xiao Li immediately felt a chill run down his spine. This big guy's eyes were too cold. It was clearly a strange fire, so why was it looking at people with such coldness?

"Wang Li, place your palm on the forehead of the Three Thousand Burning Flames. There is a dragon scale there that has not been covered by the purple-black flames. Then, infiltrate it with your soul power. Anyway, you will not abandon your own strange fire to subdue the dangerous Three Thousand Burning Flames."

"Just consider it a formality; participation is what matters!" Elder Danxun said with a smile.
