Xuan Kongzi and the other two presidents' gazes slowly moved over the ten people present. Finally, their sights all fell on Xiao Ling in the center of the crowd.
Xiao Ling was surrounded by two stunning beauties, Dan Chen and Cao Ying, and was particularly eye-catching. Seeing this scene, the three presidents couldn't help but smile knowingly and nodded slightly to show their friendship.
Xiao Ling felt their attention and nodded politely in return. However, he did not say much. In this solemn and serious occasion, any extra words were unnecessary.
Xuan Kongzi and the other two slowly withdrew their gazes and looked at each other in tacit understanding. Then, their hands quickly formed seals like phantoms, and a vast soul wave surged out from their bodies. Under the influence of this force, the originally calm sky suddenly became turbulent, as if it was torn apart by an invisible force.
Everyone present held their breath and waited, only to see the sky in that void fluctuate more and more violently. Finally, a faint silver light tore through the sky, and a magnificent space door slowly appeared in front of everyone's eyes. This door seemed to connect to another world, and the light flowing through it was mysterious and profound, which made people involuntarily feel awe.
"On this journey, Elder Danta will personally accompany you into the star field. He will explain the various rules and special features to you later."
Xuan Kongzi's eyes turned and swept across the silver space gate as sharp as a sword, and his tone revealed a hint of unquestionable firmness.
He paused, and the fierceness in his eyes became even stronger, as if he could penetrate the door of space and look directly into the unknown in the distance.
"Now, it's time. Everyone, please prepare to enter..."
As Xuan Kongzi's voice gradually faded away, a figure in a purple robe slowly stepped out and appeared in everyone's sight. His eyes were as sharp as torches, sweeping over Xiao Ling and the others one by one, and his deep eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
After a moment, he spoke calmly but with unquestionable majesty: "I am Xiang Jinsong, one of the eight elders of Danta. I will lead you on this journey to the star field. After you enter the star field, you must follow me closely and do not act on your own. You must know that there are many rules in the star field. If anyone violates them, I will not hesitate to exercise my power to cancel their qualification to enter the star field."
As soon as Elder Xiang Jinsong finished speaking, Xiao Ling and the others nodded to show their understanding. In Xiao Ling's heart, he naturally understood the significance of being led by Elder Xiang Jinsong this time.
Obviously, Xuan Kongzi and others decided to let this experienced senior who had more knowledge of the star field lead the team out of concern for possible accidents.
The presence of a person like Elder Xiang Jinsong who can stabilize the situation and take charge of the overall situation undoubtedly adds a sense of security to this journey into the star field.
However, Xiao Ling had some speculations in his mind as to why the person leading the team this time was not the famous Great Elder Qiu in the original novel.
After all, Elder Qiu Ling had just lost his beloved disciple not long ago, and he must have been immersed in grief during this period, so his mood was naturally not very good. Under such circumstances, I am afraid he has no intention and no ability to care about such matters.
Just as the few people were talking, the silver space door that had been shaking constantly finally became completely stable and no longer shook at all.
"Let's go." Elder Xiang Jinsong said in a deep voice. His eyes met with Xuan Kongzi and the other three. There was no need for much words between them. A few simple eye exchanges were enough.
Elder Xiang Jinsong waved his sleeves and walked towards the silver space gate calmly. His figure flashed and disappeared behind the door.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling and others did not hesitate at all and followed closely, one after another stepping into the door leading to the unknown space. Their figures were quickly swallowed up by the door, as if they were sucked into a whole new world.
As the space fluctuated, figures disappeared one after another in the silver fluctuations. In less than a minute, the eleven members disappeared one by one under the gazes of many people.
It was not until the last person stepped into the space gate that Xuan Kongzi's stern expression eased a little. He looked around from a high position, his eyes revealing a seriousness that could not be ignored, and then warned in a low voice: "You must be vigilant today, and you must not make any mistakes."
"I have deployed all of Danta's elites in Shengdan City and they are on standby at all times. Once any unusual changes occur, they will immediately go out to provide support." Tian Leizi nodded in confirmation.
"In addition, some powerful people who have a close relationship with Danta have also gathered in Shengdan City. I have sent someone to notify them and ask them to help us stay highly vigilant..." Xuan Yi also added softly.
Hearing these meticulous arrangements, Xuan Kongzi slowly nodded in approval. His gaze pierced the air and landed on the spatial gate. With a soft sigh, he slowly spoke, "I hope everything goes according to plan without any mistakes. If they can eliminate the threat of the Three Thousand Flames once and for all, that would be the best possible outcome..."
Chapter 482: The Great Scam
Suddenly, a slight wave of movement arose in the void of space. Then, more than a dozen figures gradually became clearer and slowly appeared in this silent star field. They were Xiao Ling and his group who had entered the star field earlier.
As soon as he appeared, Xiao Ling felt a hot breath coming towards him, as if the entire space was burning.
At the same time, the dormant strange fire in his body seemed to be awakened, and began to stir restlessly, with the temperature rising sharply. This sudden change made Xiao Ling slightly stunned.
He had only experienced this kind of violent reaction from strange fire when he encountered other strange fires. Now, in this unfamiliar star field, he encountered a similar situation again...
"This is indeed the habitat of the Three Thousand Flames..."
Xiao Ling murmured silently in his heart, his eyes slowly scanned the surroundings, and began to carefully observe this mysterious space called the star field.
Recalling a few years ago, he also tried to use soul power to explore this star field, but Xiao Ling's soul power at that time was far less powerful than it is now.
In addition, he was worried that his slightest movement would be noticed by the strong men of Danta, so he did not dare to stay for long, let alone explore in depth.
Now, Xiao Ling has personally stepped into this star space. What he sees and hears is completely different from when he first perceived it with just his soul power. His feelings are more direct and profound.
The so-called star field is actually a space crack that was forcibly torn apart by the three giants of Danta.
Such a space naturally cannot be compared with the legendary strange places such as the Dan Realm and the Ancient Realm.
It looked quite desolate, with a light mist with a fiery smell all around.
In this haze, faint light can be seen seeping in through the cracks in space, making the light here appear particularly cold, as if it carries a kind of loneliness and mystery that does not belong to this world.
Cao Ying casually grasped the faint light with her palm, but it felt cold. She narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Is this... the power of the stars?"
“This star field cannot prevent the penetration of star power, but the star power is weakest during the day, so we can only choose to enter at this time…” The great elder named Xiang Jinsong in front said lightly at this moment.
"Although the power of the stars is not as abundant during the day as it is after nightfall, and it is difficult for us to see its traces in the outside world, this is only because the sun's light is too dazzling and obscures the light of the stars. In fact, the power of the stars still exists during the day, unchanged from time immemorial." Xiao Ling smiled lightly, and then explained calmly,
"Therefore, these three thousand flames can always use the power of the stars to restore their own strength. The only difference is that the efficiency of recovery will vary over time."
After hearing Xiao Ling's words, Xiao Yan and the others also showed a look of understanding. This Three Thousand Flames, also known as the Starry Sky Fire, is condensed from the power of the stars. As long as the power of the stars is sufficient, it can be immortal.
In this world, the power of the stars has almost never completely disappeared. Even during the day, the power of the stars still exists, but its intensity is relatively weaker than at night.
"Follow me closely and don't get separated. This star field is located in a space crack, and some areas lead directly to the void. If you accidentally step in, the consequences will be disastrous."
Xiang Jinsong waved his hand, and as soon as he finished speaking, his figure swiftly rushed forward.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling and others did not hesitate at all and followed closely.
Although the area of the star field cannot be compared with that of the Dan Realm, this is only relative. According to Xiao Ling and others' speculation, the vastness here is probably no less than that of the magnificent Holy Dan City.
This can be seen from the fact that they flew for nearly ten minutes but still did not see the border.
Although they had been flying for a long time, the target was still nowhere to be seen. However, Xiao Ling and the others clearly felt the temperature around them gradually rising. Later, even though everyone was quite strong, most people had to summon their fighting spirit to resist the increasingly hot temperature.
This high temperature environment did not cause discomfort to Xiao Ling. He possessed a strange fire, and his fire resistance was so strong that it was beyond the reach of ordinary people. The protection of the strange fire made him feel very comfortable in this scorching air.
Despite this, Xiao Ling still casually set up a layer of light red barrier. This barrier protected him, Cao Ying and Dan Chen beside him, and effectively isolated them from the high temperature outside.
Under the protection of this red barrier, the two women's slight discomfort was significantly alleviated, and their complexions also relaxed a lot.
A group of people walked silently through the empty space, their figures quickly passing through the air like meteors streaking through the night sky.
About ten minutes later, their journey continued.
After the second ten minutes had passed, in the scene, except for the two masters, Elder Xiang Jinsong and Old Monster Qinghua, they did not use their fighting spirit to protect their bodies and appeared to be exceptionally calm.
And all the others have been enveloped by the powerful fighting spirit, as if they were wearing an invisible coat.
The temperature here has climbed to an incredible height, and the air seems to be flowing with the heat of lava, making everyone's face look even more solemn.
"It seems we are almost reaching our destination..."
During the flight, Xiao Ling inadvertently glanced at the people traveling with him, and suddenly an inexplicable wave of emotion surged in his heart. His eyes penetrated the void in front of him and went straight into the distance.
At this moment, the strange fire in his body suddenly boiled up. This violent reaction was something he had never experienced in all these years. Even when he faced the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, the surge of power was not as strong as it was at this moment.
Although the others did not possess the same sensing ability as the strange fire, they also noticed the rapid rise in temperature around them, and they immediately realized that their destination should be not far away.
Just as everyone was secretly on high alert, a burst of blazing light suddenly erupted from the distant void. The light was so strong that it was like the scorching sun in the sky, making people's eyes hurt and unbearable.
"We have arrived at our destination. Please be careful. Remember, the Three Thousand Flames are extremely powerful. If you want to communicate with them, you must adopt a gentle approach and never use violence. In this star region, if you accidentally anger it, the consequences will be disastrous."
Xiang Jinsong's figure suddenly stopped while moving forward. He turned his head, his eyes deep and sharp, scanning everyone in the team one by one, reminding everyone in a serious tone.
As soon as Xiang Jinsong finished speaking, everyone nodded with serious expressions, indicating that they understood his reminder.
The purpose of their trip was to subdue the strange fire, not to conflict with it. If they angered the Three Thousand Flames without reason, they would undoubtedly be asking for trouble, and might even bring disaster.
Furthermore, everyone present was aware of the powerful strength of the Three Thousand Flames, and no one dared to boast that they had the ability to completely subdue it.
However, Xiao Ling did not respond to this. He knew in his heart that he would inevitably have to fight directly with the Three Thousand Flames.
Now that there is no one from the Soul Palace to interfere and disrupt the situation, the arduous task of fighting against the Three Thousand Flames can only be done by Xiao Ling himself. He will go all out to tame this powerful flame.
Afterwards, when the Three Thousand Flames of Fire fell into a weakened state, he activated the dragon seal that Zi Yan had implanted in his body and started a soul duel with him.
Such a strategy can not only simplify the complexity of the battle, but also reduce the risk of accidents to a certain extent.
After a brief reminder, Xiang Jinsong finally slowed down, and he floated gently towards the area of bright light like a fallen leaf.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling and others immediately quickened their pace and followed closely behind him.
As they got closer, the bright light that was so strong that it was difficult to look directly at gradually became less dazzling.
At this moment, the object in the light finally appeared clearly and came into their sight.
"Goo!"
When everyone finally saw the scene in the light clearly, their faces froze instantly, their throats rolled unconsciously, and they swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty. Their eyes were filled with shock that could not be described.
Even Xiao Ling couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly when he witnessed this scene. He inevitably felt a little shocked and looked forward to the future.
The scene I saw with my own eyes was indeed quite different from what I had seen when I had only used my soul power to explore. This visual impact was completely different from what I had felt.
In the depths of the light, a huge dragon shadow that was so huge that it was impossible to see the end of it was lying quietly, its eyes were closed, and its body was winding and tortuous, like a living mountain.
A layer of mysterious purple-black flames was wrapped around the dragon's body. As the flames rose, they distorted the surrounding space.
In this vast void, the figure of the giant dragon appears particularly spectacular. It just sits there quietly, purple-black flames constantly seeping out of its body, burning endlessly as it jumps and rolls.
Such a scene cannot help but make people feel shocked. The shock goes straight to the depths of the soul and is difficult to describe in words.
"Is this... is this the legendary Three Thousand Flames..."
In the silent atmosphere, a voice trembled slightly, with shock that was difficult to conceal.
Although the dragon's eyes were closed, the strong dragon power that permeated the air made people feel their legs go weak and their hearts tremble.
The huge size of the dragon is undoubtedly a strong shock to the soul, making people feel insignificant in front of its majesty.
As the first person broke the silence, the others gradually recovered from their shock. They looked at each other with silent astonishment in their eyes.
Everyone was secretly amazed in their hearts. The power of the strange fire before them was beyond their imagination and was terrifying.
Xiao Ling stared at the giant dragon in front of him, and suddenly felt a warmth in his palm. His heart moved, and he glanced quietly, noticing that the dragon seal that Zi Yan had implanted in his body was emitting a little heat at this moment, as if it had some special resonance with the giant dragon.
"The Dragon Seal has begun to react." Xiao Ling muttered in his heart, and a gleam of light flashed in the depths of his eyes. He noticed that although the Dragon Seal was quietly heating up, the Three Thousand Flames did not seem to notice it.
This discovery made him believe Zi Yan's words even more. He secretly pondered: "The dragon seal left by the elder of the ancient dragon clan in the body of Sanqian Yanyanhuo is indeed not comparable to the dragon seal carved by Zi Yan before. The latter is obviously more advanced."
"This is the so-called Three Thousand Flames, but it is now sealed. Next, you will go forward one by one in the order of the Alchemy Association's ranking and try to see if you can subdue it in a gentle way." Xiang Jinsong's voice was low and firm, "Remember, you must use gentle means and must not wake it up from its slumber!"
Xiang Jinsong gave another warning, then slowly withdrew his cautious gaze and turned his gaze to Xiao Ling, with a hint of tenderness and expectation in his eyes. "Xiao Ling, as the winner of this Alchemy Conference, you will be eligible to try to subdue the Three Thousand Flames before everyone else..."
As soon as Xiang Jinsong finished speaking, everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Ling.
Amidst the many curious, expectant, or awed gazes, Xiao Ling's expression remained as calm as a lake. His look was indifferent and easy-going, as if the scene before him did not affect him in the slightest.
He nodded slightly in response, then exchanged a tacit look with Cao Ying and Dan Chen. After a simple greeting, Xiao Ling moved forward steadily and walked slowly towards the sleeping dragon.
