Battle Through the Heavens: Exceptional Comprehension, Becomes Emperor at Ten Years Old

Chapter 122 Thunder Path Sealing Technique!

"Perhaps not now, but do you really intend to use those two elders at the peak of the Dou Zong realm to intimidate the many powerful figures in the Black Corner Region?" Jiahe said slowly.

Hu Qian said, "Isn't that enough?"

Gah laughed, "Under normal circumstances, that would be enough, but not now!"

Su Qian and Hu Qian both looked at Jia He, hoping to get an explanation.

Gah continued, "Isn't there a Heavenly Flame Refining Tower in the inner courtyard?"

Su Qian didn't know why Jiahe suddenly changed the subject, but she still nodded and said, "There is indeed such a tower."

"That Fallen Heart Flame in the tower must have become much more volatile lately, and the number of times it attempts to break through the seal, as well as the duration of those attempts, are increasing and becoming shorter, right?" Gahe said calmly.

Su Qian was suddenly startled. If Jiahe were to attack the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower at this moment, it would be a devastating blow to the Inner Academy.

Jiahe said, "You don't need to worry about that. I won't harm the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower."

"What I'm trying to say is that the sixth-grade alchemist from the Medicine Emperor Sect in the Black Corner Region is extremely coveting the Fallen Heart Flame, a rare and exotic fire. If he knew that the Fallen Heart Flame was in the inner courtyard, do you think he wouldn't take the opportunity to retrieve it?"

"Most importantly, according to my intelligence, there is an underground force behind the Black Corner Region that controls some sects, and Elder Su Qian may have had contact with the name of this force."

Upon hearing this, Su Qian was slightly taken aback and asked, "What kind of power?"

"The Soul Palace!" Gahe exclaimed.

Su Qian's eyes widened slightly as she asked, "The Soul Palace? Could it be the Soul Palace in Central Continent?"

Jiahe nodded and said, "That's right. This force has been hiding in the Northwest Continent for a long time. Han Feng, the Medicine King of the Black Corner Region, has been in contact with the people of the Soul Palace."

"If they target Canaan Academy, what does the Grand Elder think will happen?" Gahe asked, looking at Su Qian.

Su Qian fell silent. He knew something about the Soul Palace, but not much.

Su Qian only knew that the Soul Hall had a terrible reputation in the Central Plains and was extremely powerful, but he did not expect that the Soul Hall would infiltrate the Northwest Continent.

"What do you want to do?" Su Qian asked.

Although Su Qian didn't know why Jiahe knew so much, if the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower were to break through its seal, not only would countless people in the Inner Academy die, but powerful figures from the Black Corner Region and even the Northwest Continent would also be mobilized.

The alchemists, especially those in the Northwest Continent, are extremely obsessed with strange fire.

If those people find out about the existence of the Fallen Heart Flame, they might try to seize it, since it's considered ownerless as long as it hasn't recognized a master.

Jiahe said to Su Qian, "I can help you strengthen the seal on the Fallen Heart Flame, ensuring it remains intact for at least ten or even twenty years."

"But in return, you need to form an alliance with me and help Imperial Prison wipe out the Black Corner Region!"

Upon hearing Jiahe's words, Su Qian and Hu Qian both widened their eyes and exclaimed, "Sweep away the Black Corner Region?"

"Isn't the Black Corner Region too chaotic? Perfect, I'll give them back a clear and bright world. Wouldn't that be a good thing for Canaan Academy too?" Gahe retorted.

"Can you really help the academy reinforce the seal?" Su Qian asked, looking at Jia He.

Gah nodded and said, "If I didn't have the ability, I wouldn't have come to Canaan Academy."

After pondering for a moment, Su Qian nodded and said, "Alright, I can agree to form an alliance with you, but it will only be limited to elders at the Dou Huang level and above. The rest of the academy members probably won't be able to help much!"

Gah said, "That's enough. As long as Canaan Academy helps me absorb some damage, the rest of the smaller forces in the Black Corner Region are entirely under the Emperor's Prison's control!"

Su Qian said nothing more, stood up and looked at Jia He, saying, "Come with me, let's reinforce the seal on the strange fire first."

Gah and Medusa got up and followed Su Qian toward the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

Just as I stepped out the door, I noticed that Zi Yan was standing there eavesdropping.

Seeing the group emerge, Zi Yan awkwardly took two steps back. Before Su Qian could speak, Zi Yan glanced at Jia He and quickly ran away, saying, "I'm leaving right now!"

Su Qian shook his head helplessly, clearly having no other choice but to accept Zi Yan's situation.

To the north of the college, there is an open plaza with a sunken area.

In its center, an extremely large black tower was buried deep underground, with only a section of its spire and a pitch-black entrance visible.

This is the academy's Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, and even now, many students are still continuously entering the tower to cultivate.

Su Qian looked at Jia He and asked, "Should we clear everyone out of the tower?"

"No need, it should be soon," Gahe said.

Su Qian said nothing more and walked towards the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

When Gahe and Medusa entered the Heavenly Refining Tower for the first time, a sudden surge of inner fire appeared within their bodies.

Medusa's beautiful eyes widened slightly in surprise, then she closed them and instantly refined the inner fire.

Jiahe felt the inner fire within his body. This kind of inner fire had almost no effect on a Dou Zong powerhouse.

After all, this Heart Flame is not even a sub-flame of the Fallen Heart Flame; its strength is too weak. It is more than enough for cultivators below the Dou Ling level to use!

Su Qian led Jiahe straight down the tower. In the center was a black hole leading underground, with spiral staircases on both sides.

You can feel a scorching heat from underground, and hear faint roars.

Soon, Su Qian led Jiahe and Medusa to the bottom of the tower, where two elders were guarding it.

"Elder!" the two elders greeted.

Su Qian nodded, then said, "Open the door!"

The stone door in front of him rumbled loudly, and a very spacious stone chamber appeared before Gahe.

The intense heat emanated from the area, distorting the surrounding space. A fiery red light, seemingly emanating from nowhere, illuminated the entire space with dazzling brightness.

In the center of the space, there was a deep hole filled with a faint red color, like fresh blood.

Outside this deep cave, there is a faint energy shield, engraved with intricate and mysterious patterns, from which wisps of violent energy continuously emanate.

Jiahe could sense the terrifying energy emanating from the energy shield, which was absolutely no less than the full-force attack of a Dou Zun.

However, over the years, much of the energy on this energy shield has been consumed by the Fallen Heart Flame, causing it to become somewhat dim.

Even more terrifying is that the sentient Fallen Heart Flame beneath the black hole has ceased its roaring at some point, now lurking menacingly in the darkness, waiting for its chance to escape.

Su Qian arrived in front of the energy shield, placed her hands on it, and then slowly separated it, allowing the three of them to enter.

The extreme heat was so intense that even Su Qian and Medusa needed to use their powerful battle qi to resist the terrifying temperature.

"There's a seal down here, near the Fallen Heart Flame itself, and the energy shield above is also sealed. You can start reinforcing it from this seal below!" Su Qian said.

Gah nodded slightly, then his body plummeted towards the light emanating from below, where he soon saw a seal.

Gazing at that seal, Gahe contemplated and comprehended its meaning.

[You visualized the seal laid out by Mang Qianchi, and gained insight, triggering an extraordinary comprehension, thus comprehending a high-level Earth-rank combat skill: Thunder Path Sealing Technique!]

Updates will resume today, and I will start catching up on missed updates tomorrow.
