Chapter 551 The Illusion is Broken
The Pure Lotus Demon Flame launched an attack on Xiao Yan and his group. They hurriedly tried to dodge, but the illusion was controlled by the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, and they couldn't escape it no matter how hard they tried.

However, at this moment, the Pure Lotus Demon Flame suddenly stopped. It wasn't because it had taken pity on him, but because Lan Hong and his group had also arrived at the Demon Flame Hall.

The Pure Lotus Demon Flame opened its eyes and looked at Lan Hong and his group with a wary expression.

"It's somewhat unexpected that you weren't trapped by the illusion of the Nightmare Mist."

"Brother Lan Hong, is that the Pure Lotus Demon Flame? It has already fully condensed into human form."

"His current appearance is that of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint. In the end, he is nothing more than a pathetic wretch imitating the Pure Lotus Demon Saint."

Upon hearing Lan Hong's description of him as a "pathetic wretch," the Pure Lotus Demon Flame's expression turned quite ugly.

"You are the most arrogant person I have ever met, and naturally you will pay the price for your arrogance."

A flame ignited beside Lan Hong, attempting to transform her into a fire slave.

But then Lan Hong raised his hand, and the flames burning around him gathered into a single point in his palm. Then, Lan Hong flicked his finger, and a stream of light instantly pierced through the body of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

The Pure Lotus Demon Flame stared in disbelief at the holes piercing through its body.

"You, who are you?"

"I can't be bothered with you. Let your former master respond to you instead."

Lan Hong released a fragment of the remnant soul of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint, which had been gathered from the Pure Lotus Demon Flame map.

The remnant soul of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint had not shown any reaction before, but after arriving in this demon fire space, it finally "came back to life".

The remnant soul then coalesced into the form of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint, though it was extremely transparent.

He formed a hand seal, and a mysterious rune appeared. Immediately, the entire Nightmare Mist was dispelled, and Xiao Yan and the others were finally freed from the illusion.

The Pure Lotus Demon Flame saw that the Nightmare Heavenly Mist had been broken through by that mysterious rune, and its defenses were clearly weakened.

"Why? Why do you still exist? Shouldn't you have been completely devoured by me?"
"Did you somehow anticipate my backlash and prepare a backup plan beforehand? How is that possible?"

At this moment, the remnant soul of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint seemed to have used up all its power, and returned to Lan Hong's hand as a point of light.

Xiao Yan and his group had just escaped from the illusion and were still a little dazed.

"What happened? We were almost turned into fire slaves by the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame. Did someone save us?"

Gu Nanhai shook his head; the crisis he had just experienced still left him with lingering fear.

"Brother Xiao Yan, have we completely escaped the illusion now?"

Gu Xun'er was also frightened by this illusion, fearing that she was still in it.

"I think so. Xun'er, look over there. Senior has arrived. It must have been Senior who broke through the Nightmare Mist and saved us."

At this moment, Xiao Chen's situation became increasingly strange.

"Oh no! The Pure Lotus Demon Flame is trying to regain control of me! Ah!"

Upon hearing Xiao Chen's voice, Xiao Yan immediately rushed over and once again used the Fusion Flame to help Xiao Chen isolate himself from the control of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

"This is not a long-term solution. If we want our ancestor Xiao Chen to completely break free from the control of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, we must subdue the Pure Lotus Demon Flame."

"The Purifying Lotus Demon Flame's Nightmare Mist has already caused us a lot of trouble. Unless the Alliance Leader takes action personally, I'm afraid no one can stand against that Purifying Lotus Demon Flame."

This isn't just Yao Chen being pessimistic; it's the truth. Otherwise, they would still be trapped in the illusion of Nightmare Heavenly Mist if Lan Hong hadn't intervened.

However, at this time, as the Nightmare Mist dissipated, people from other forces such as the Medicine Clan, Flame Clan, and Soul Clan also arrived at the Demon Fire Palace.

"That is the Pure Lotus Demon Flame. Its strength has probably surpassed all of ours."

Yao Wangui also found it terrifying; in the illusion, he was almost overwhelmed by the endless fire slaves. The Soul Clan members also appeared at this time, but the leader wore a mask to disguise himself, and the remaining two Soul Clan members were only at the level of a one-star Dou Sheng.

The Pure Lotus Demon Flame was finally freed from the terror of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint's remnant soul breaking free from the Nightmare Heavenly Mist.

He feigned composure and said, "Hmph, so what if you have a backup plan? No one can stop me now."

"Everyone, stay and become my fire slaves! Hahaha, demonic fire forges the heavens!"

The Pure Lotus Demon Flame activated the Refining Heaven Ancient Array using the entire Demon Flame Space as its base, enveloping everyone within the array.

As soon as the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation was activated, some half-saints who were not strong enough were burned to ashes by the demonic fire that burned from their bodies.

"Calm down and focus your mind. Don't let your emotions fluctuate, or the demonic fire will find an opportunity to attack."

Xiao Yan shouted a warning to everyone, and at the same time went over to protect Yao Chen with his strange fire.

Yao Chen felt somewhat helpless, as he felt that his arrival in the Demon Flame Space had actually made him a burden to Xiao Yan.

"Hehe, those people don't even qualify to be my fire slaves. My fire slaves must at least be Battle Saints."

As he spoke, the Pure Lotus Demon Fire summoned the fire slaves that he truly controlled.

Everyone was astonished to see the ten fire slaves at the Battle Saint level summoned by the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

A Dou Sheng is not a common commodity; they are a select few who stand at the pinnacle of the Dou Qi Continent.

Now, all 10 Dou Sheng have become fire slaves of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, which is truly lamentable.

Lan Hong was just watching the show; he really had little interest in the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

Instead, they were more interested in how Xiao Yan and his group would deal with the Pure Lotus Demon Flame and the fire slaves it controlled.

At this moment, the Soul Clan Battle Saint also spoke up. His voice was low and hoarse, clearly a disguise.

The others aren't stupid either. The Soul Clan's Battle Saint is doing this most likely because the Soul Clan has once again violated the agreement.

His strength must be greater than others; he is at least a five-star Dou Sheng.

"As you can see from the current situation, let's put aside any grudges we may have had before and join forces to deal with the Pure Lotus Demon Flame."

Upon hearing his words, the others exchanged glances, but Xiao Yan was the first to step forward.

“He’s right. We can only put aside our past grudges for now and focus on dealing with the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.”

Xiao Yan has the deepest hatred for the Soul Clan, and since he has no objections, the others naturally have no objections either, after all, this is the only feasible solution at present.

"Brother Xiao Yan, the Soul Clan is despicable, please be careful."

"Xun'er, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. You must be careful too."

Xiao Chen then said, "Xiao Yan, you are now the only bloodline heir of my Xiao clan. I'm afraid I can't help you right now, but if you are in danger, we will do everything in our power, even at the cost of our lives, to get you out of there."

"Thank you, Ancestor Xiao Chen."

At this moment, Yao Wangui, Huo Yao, Gu Nanhai, and other four-star Dou Sheng launched an attack on the Pure Lotus Demon Flame together.

The ten Dou Sheng fire slaves had already charged towards Xiao Yan and his group.
