The girl quietly watched the other person's white robe back, which was still covered by its hood, and tilted her head.

Before long, the other person's figure left her sight and walked out of her spiritual sense range.

"Sure enough, rich women are all very busy," Xi Heng muttered to himself, without giving it much thought.

He lowered his head slightly to look at the still-burning white flame in his hand.

The slight ripples were silent; the flames burned the loose clothes on her chest, but could only be blown away by the wind without being scorched.

After staring at the flame in his hand for a while in the corridor, Xi Heng retreated back to the hall, pausing his thoughts of secluded cultivation.

Although her primary goal is still to improve her cultivation, she has suddenly obtained the Pure Fire and wants to try to figure it out first.

"..."

Back in the hall, the white-haired girl placed the purifying fire on the surface of the round table with both hands.

Then, he took out the "Qingyan Gong" he had just obtained and began to read it.

"...This method can refine and absorb the flames that are always around you into your body, so that your physical body can gradually adapt to the flames and be infected by them, and learn many special fire techniques."

Xi Heng silently recited: "At the highest level of cultivation, one can transform oneself into raging flames, and be able to teleport or change into various forms to attack."

With a flicker in her eyes, she recalled the moment before her death in her previous life.

At that time, the young man Yin Wanluan, who was dressed in black robes, transformed his physical body into pure white flames to evade several attacks from the vengeful demon fire.

Afterwards, he escaped back to the Netherworld Sect but was caught up by the Resentful Heaven Demon Fire, which seemed to have used this move to transform into a flaming Qilin.

"To cultivate this method, one must spend several years with the flames—the first stage is to incorporate the flames into one's own body, refining and nourishing the physical body." Xi Heng glanced at the pure white flame beside him as he read the book.

This small, pure flame probably won't stay with her for long.

Once Yin Wanluan has finished his recent business and everything has calmed down, he will send it into the Netherworld Gate.

If I want to use the Pure Fire to cultivate this technique, I will need to spend most of my time in a dark underground place, like a religious monk who spends all his time with it.

"This takes too long, and it might even interfere with my cultivation in seclusion." The girl shook her head.

He then casually glanced at the book in his hand a few more times, and his slightly furrowed brows relaxed a little.

Because this book of techniques does not stipulate that one must use pure fire to practice.

The terms used to describe the refined flames are simply "spiritual fire" or "strange fire".

It seems that as long as there is a flame with spirit, it can be used to cultivate the "Clear Flame Technique".

Xi Heng happens to possess another kind of spiritual fire within her body—her resentment fire is quite similar to her pure fire, and the fire unicorn that led her to her death in her previous life was transformed from the resentment fire, indicating that the resentment fire can cultivate this technique.

"Furthermore, the resentment has been lingering in my body for many years, so perhaps I can try to refine it now." She continued to flip through the cultivation manual in front of her.

The first and simplest spell in the "Qingyan Gong" is that it does not require drawing talismans or pinching fingers; a wave of the hand forward is enough to unleash a large amount of spiritual fire.

This kind of spell is an explosive burst, rather than a slow, forceful push of flames.

Later on, there are even more techniques such as forming fireballs, rockets, and transforming into longswords... none of them seem difficult.

It seems like you can master it with just a little learning.

Xi Heng wanted to practice it now, but in the end he held back.

Once you've read this manual once, you'll have a photographic memory that allows you to memorize the words and images. You can then practice it anytime.

The Pure Fire on the side doesn't have the opportunity to be analyzed and tested all the time.

Xi Heng sat down silently and turned over the cultivation manual in his hand.

After reading it, he put it aside and turned his gaze to the slowly burning white flame beside him, reaching out to approach it.

A thick black aura gathered in his palm, intertwining and condensing, from which a deep red flame emerged.

The intense, deep red flames scorched the pure fire, engulfing it completely in a matter of seconds.

The resentful flames continued to seep into the white flames from the outside, the pure white and deep red colors intermingling and converging to form an ever-changing, eerie hue.

Ultimately, the two colors intersect and change into the red and yellow of ordinary flames, thus enlarging the overall size.

Xi Heng closed his eyes, focusing solely on the changes in the Pure Fire with his spiritual sense and the perception of the resentful fire.

Black lines extended from the fingertips, connecting directly to the flames.

The girl raised her hand and flicked her fingertips, using black threads to sense and control the fluctuations of the flames as if manipulating a puppet.

In her previous life, when she wrapped the white flames in resentment, she was unable to understand the specific meaning of each fluctuation pattern because she did not understand the principles of array formations.

Now, after learning about array formations, even though it's only been a short time, I've already recognized some basic information.

"After this flame separated from the Pure Fire, it has been trying to reconnect with the Spirit Locking Array... but Yin Wanluan has somehow blocked many connections."

The black line rises and falls, gradually illustrating its fluctuations.

"However, some of them are still connected to the Great Spirit Locking Array."

“This part only has fixed functions, such as the Spirit Transformation Technique for teleportation, or the switch for accumulating spiritual energy.” Xi Heng nodded slightly: “...These are all functions required by the Youxu Sect.”

"With my current level of array formation cultivation, I could open a small portion of the blockade, but there's no need."

She still cannot distinguish the function of each part of the purification fire.

If a sealed area is opened carelessly and the leader of the Pure Fire Cult discovers the stolen Pure Fire, it will be a real problem.

"Why not use the Spirit Transformation ability and its connection with the Spirit Locking Array as a medium to try and do something..."

A moment later, Xi Heng used his other hand to draw a few simple array talismans in the air and sent them toward the Pure Fire.

Upon receiving the command, Jinghuo began the pre-teleportation animation for the Qilinghua Wufang technique.

As the light slowly emerged and was about to begin swirling around her, the girl suddenly raised the black thread at her fingertips, stopping the activation of the teleportation technique.

Before the transmission actually begins, the Spirit Transformation Method will spontaneously observe the situation at the target location, such as the current scene and images of that place, and this information will be transmitted along with the fluctuations of the Pure Fire.

After observing, Xi Heng immediately canceled the teleportation, thus obtaining the message without actually transmitting it.

When the teleportation technique ceased, the Pure Fire had already received the scene and sounds within a hundred meters of the target teleportation point from the Spirit Locking Array.

The scene was mostly calm and normal, except for the teleportation points in the center of Shigu Town and outside the Seven Alliance, which were somewhat chaotic.

She tried several more times, paying attention to the sounds that came out.

Most of the words were blurred and unclear after transmission, making it difficult to discern the specific content.

The girl listened carefully for a long time, and could only barely make out words such as "fake pill", "scroll", and "underground".

She tried sensing from several different teleportation points, and within a quarter of an hour, she heard the words "fake pill" multiple times.

Not only members of the Seven Alliance, but even members of the outer sect of the Pure Fire Sect residing in Ishigaya Town would mention it.

"Is everyone outside paying attention to this fake pill matter...?"

She hasn't left the courtyard for a long time, as if she's living in seclusion and detached from worldly affairs.

"However, this should just be false information fabricated by Yin Wanluan. At the end of the previous life, no cultivator achieved a false core and was able to contend with the Resentful Heaven Demon Fire."

Xi Heng paid little attention to it and continued to ponder the other uses of the purifying fire in front of him.

However, after trying again and again, many other functions were blocked because the connection with the spirit-locking array was too weak.

So he changed his perspective and muttered to himself:

"When I first arrived at the Fire Hell, I stuffed resentful fire into the first Pure Fire Split... Could I use that Pure Fire as a continuation device to directly connect with the Great Spirit Locking Array?"

She felt it was okay.

However, I still felt there was some danger, so I put the idea aside for now and decided to think about it later.

Then, Xi Heng used the pure fire in front of him to observe the outside world.

As time passed, most of what I heard and saw during this period was useless information.

As darkness fell and night deepened, the sky gradually darkened.

As the sun sets in the west, the dim, fiery inferno turns dark.

The clouds firmly obscured the stars and moon in the sky, and the earth was dim, but the individual fires still illuminated the surroundings.

Xi Heng closed his eyes and guided the Pure Fire. Suddenly, he heard a message from the Pure Fire on the outskirts of Shigu Market.

She noted it down and quickly identified it:

"The Seven Sect Alliance has found the fake pill scroll and is about to bypass the barrier from Shigu Market and return to the Seven Sect Alliance?"

Upon hearing this, her first suspicion was:

"I wonder if this scroll is real or fake..."

If the fake pill technique were real, she would teleport there now to intercept and kill the other party and seize the technique.

But Xi Heng felt that it was most likely fake and there was no need to take the risk.

"Well, let's just tell Yin Wanluan this news."

I'm just saying this casually; it might be useful or not.

While the girl was pondering, she took out the Purifying Flame Emblem from her storage bag, entered the information she had discovered into it, and sent it immediately.

A moment later, a wave emanated from the Pure Fire Emblem, indicating that the other party had responded.

When spiritual energy is deeply absorbed into it, the response is as follows:

'The fake elixir scroll beneath the Stone Valley was merely a fabrication I made up based on old rumors; it turns out it actually existed?'

Xi Heng twitched his lips and peered around the Jinghuo area of ​​Shigu Market again. After searching, he spotted a group of black-clad figures moving swiftly in the night.

One of them was tightly clutching a scroll wrapped in black cloth.

"Is this genuine?"

……

Volume 1: Chapter 205 (Chapter 197), Broken Walls and Remains

Night.

Yuuki was in the Pure Fire Capital, observing the distant Ishiya Ward through the Pure Fire.

Over there, seven dark figures were swiftly gliding across the sky like birds in the hazy night.

The shadowy figures flashed by, but with her keen observation skills, she could clearly discern their individual shapes, the weapons they carried, and the flight techniques they employed.

Judging from their flight patterns, it is easy to determine that the cultivators consist of two Foundation Establishment cultivators and five Qi Refining cultivators.

"Their strength is not particularly high."

Xi Heng weighed her strength against the seven people and concluded that she could easily win.

Looking at the direction the other person was heading, she recalled the map of the entire Fire Prison and deduced that they were heading to the location that separated Stone Valley Market from the Seven Alliance.

They probably intend to break through the barrier directly and return to the Seven Sect Alliance, rather than taking the route commonly used by cultivators.

This method allows them to evade the surveillance of the Fire Cult.

However, they could also be intercepted by malicious individuals who have obtained the information.

Xi Heng, who was monitoring all of this, harbored ulterior motives.

That scroll likely contains the only method in the Fiery Hell to achieve the level of a Golden Core cultivator through a pseudo-Core technique.

Xi Heng was unwilling to limit his cultivation level to the Foundation Establishment Perfection stage, and naturally he also wanted to achieve that.

After making a quick assessment, she nimbly took out the black robe of the Youxu Sect from her storage bag and draped it over her body.

Then, she gripped the Pure Fire Emblem she used to communicate with Yin Wanluan again and casually sent a message indicating that she would take action.

After sending it, he put the emblem back into his pouch and continued to organize the supplies that might be needed in the upcoming battle.

Incidentally, it also concealed his identity and appearance.

He hung up the shading talisman given to him by Yin Wanluan, completely eliminating his aura and sense of realm.

Normally, this might be considered a sign of weakness by ordinary cultivators, but today is different.

She will appear suddenly from the wilderness, dressed entirely in a black robe, and stand alone in front of the enemy.

The lack of aura only amplifies the threat.

Xi Heng flicked out another burst of spiritual light, activating the small illusion technique inherent in the black robes of the Youxu Sect, using dense black energy to conceal his face.

Beneath the robes, only a thick black mist remained.
