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

"The Fallen Heart Flame? The Fallen Heart Flame that's known as a cheat code for cultivation?" Xiao Li was very excited. He did know that the Inner Court had the Fallen Heart Flame.

Moreover, the Fallen Heart Flame is one of his targets. The Fallen Heart Flame is not only known as a cheat code for cultivation, but it also has the characteristic of burning the soul, and it is especially effective against those who are good at the way of the soul!

It has a special attack against the strange creatures of the Soul Palace.

"That's right, that's exactly right. As you probably already know, our Dean Mang Tianchi of Canaan Academy is a Dou Zun powerhouse. When he traveled across the continent..."

The Fallen Heart Flame was discovered in this place. Knowing its effects, the Fallen Heart Flame was suppressed, and Canaan Academy was founded. This explains why the Inner Academy allows so many geniuses to soar to great heights.

It's because of this Fallen Heart Flame. Although it has been suppressed, it has developed sentience, which makes it hate our Canaan Academy. It has been accumulating power to break through the seal.

The Fallen Heart Flame is currently a ticking time bomb for the academy. If you have the ability to subdue it, it would be like removing a hidden danger for the academy. Of course, you must actually have the ability to subdue it.

Qianmu explained that when he was the Grand Elder, the Fallen Heart Flame would erupt every now and then, keeping him extremely busy. However, at that time, the Fallen Heart Flame was not very intelligent, so it was easy for him to suppress it.

After Bai Lie succeeded as the Grand Elder, the riots of the Fallen Heart Flame became more and more outrageous. Although Dean Mang Tianchi returned several times and strengthened the seal, there was a large lava lake beneath the Fallen Heart Flame, and the Fallen Heart Flame had a continuous source of energy.

Therefore, the seal became weaker and weaker under the repeated impacts of the Fallen Heart Flame, and sooner or later the Fallen Heart Flame would break through the seal and wreak havoc on the inner courtyard.

Dean Mang Tianchi meant that if any student was capable of subduing the Fallen Heart Flame, then let them do so; leaving it there was too unstable.

"Junior understands!" Xiao Li was overjoyed. Since Elder Qianbai had agreed to let him absorb the Fallen Heart Flame, that was wonderful.

Xiao Li understood that the Fallen Heart Flame was the Heavenly Fire Venerable's strange fire. The Heavenly Fire Venerable was still below, and there was a nascent Fallen Heart Flame at the Heavenly Fire Venerable's remains, which was enough to solve the problem of the Heavenly Burning Refining Tower.

Win-win!

"Go ahead, and focus on improving your strength first. I can see that you have accumulated a lot of medicinal power in your body. Once you reach adulthood, this medicinal power will become your asset."

Although these medicinal effects will allow your cultivation to advance extremely quickly, too rapid an increase in realm is also not good. This Fallen Heart Flame can solve this problem very well.

After Qianmu finished speaking, he and Bailie disappeared. As expected of a peak Dou Zong expert, their speed was really fast.

Xiao Li returned along the same route. He was very fast and soon caught up with Hu Qian and his group. Then everyone left.

"Alright, you've received your rewards. Now, take two days to rest. After that, you'll need to enter the inner courtyard. You'll have plenty of time to complain then."

Just a heads-up: if newcomers want to avoid being bullied by the senior students when they first enter the inner courtyard, they'll have to be stronger than them. Of course, the students who can enter the inner courtyard are basically the best of the former outer courtyard students, and their cultivation talents are not weak.

In addition, given the unique training and cultivation methods of the Inner Academy, it will probably be quite difficult for you newcomers to catch up with their pace.

In short, you should cooperate with each other, otherwise things will not go well. Xiao Li would like to give you a special reminder: your strength is indeed very strong, but there are quite a few students at the Dou Ling level in the inner academy.

In particular, the number of students at the peak of the Dou Ling realm exceeds ten, and several students have even reached the half-step Dou Wang level, just half a step away from becoming a Dou Wang.

As the vice dean of the outer academy, Hu Qian naturally had to remind them, especially Xiao Li. He reminded Xiao Li that he had achieved so much at such a young age, which was indeed something to be proud of, but he had not been cultivating for long enough and still lacked experience.

"Understood. I've already discussed it with Senior Liu. We'll start cultivating in the inner courtyard first, but I won't hold back against any fools." Xiao Li wasn't in the mood for playing house with them anymore; he needed to focus on his cultivation!

If he can't get the Fallen Heart Flame, he'll have no choice but to turn the Tagor Desert upside down in search of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

Xiao Li didn't care about the names of the nineteenth and fourteenth ranked Strange Flames, since apart from the top three Strange Flames being unique, the other Strange Flames should be pretty much the same.

The strength depends on the person, but the Fallen Heart Flame is such a powerful cultivation cheat that you can level up even while lying down, which suits Xiao Li's desire to relax and level up.

"I've arrived at the inner courtyard!"

. . . . . .

Two years later,

Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, Advanced Cultivation Room

A man in blue sat cross-legged there, exuding a remarkable fighting spirit.

The man wore a long blue robe, had a well-proportioned build, neither particularly muscular nor thin. His face wasn't exceptionally handsome, but he possessed a unique and indescribable charm, and his black hair cascaded over his shoulders.

call--

"Phew—I've reached the Five-Star Dou King level. That Dou Ling Pill wasn't a waste."

This man in blue is Xiao Li, who has been in the inner courtyard for two years.

Time flies. When we first entered the inner courtyard, there were indeed many clueless people who came to cause trouble. Most of them were two or three-star Dou Ling, who came to collect protection money, but Xiao Li chased them all away.

Later, Xiao Li, finding it troublesome, followed Liu Tianjiao to the Liu Gang. Liu Tianjiao's cousin was a strongman ranked fourth on the Power Ranking, named Liu Tianlong.

It is worth mentioning that both brothers came from Tianhuang City in the Central Region of Zhongzhou. Tianhuang City is dominated by two major families: the Liu family and the Cheng family. The Liu brothers are the direct descendants of the Liu family.

Their family is more powerful than an empire in the Northwest Continent. To be able to dominate a city in the Central Region of the Central State, the family must have Dou Zong powerhouses, and possibly more than one. They must also have quite a few Dou Huang powerhouses.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li couldn't help but sigh. Zhongzhou truly was the center of the Dou Qi Continent. Dou Zong experts, rarely seen in the Northwest Continent, were everywhere in Zhongzhou.

Xiao Li broke through to become a Dou Wang powerhouse in just over a year after entering the inner academy, and then took the top spot on the strength ranking with his strength.

After entering the inner courtyard, Xiao Li fought dozens of battles, big and small, and won all of them except for one loss and one draw.

Xiao Li's only defeat was when he underestimated a little girl in white, and she punched him. Luckily, it was a minor injury; he broke two ribs and had to stay in bed for half a month.

That draw happened when Xiao Li was a four-star Dou Ling and fought with the person ranked second on the Strong Ranking. Xiao Li had beaten up his younger brother, and the person wanted to vent his anger, so the two fought to a draw.

"Xiao Li! Xiao Li!"

A clear, melodious voice rang out, and then the door to the advanced training room opened, revealing a little girl in white walking in.

The little girl appeared to be no more than twelve or thirteen years old. She had long, light purple hair that reached her waist, and her cheeks were extremely fair and delicate, like a piece of carved jade.

Second on the Inner Court Ranking, Zi Yan

"I knew you'd be hiding in this unbearably hot place! Hurry! I've finished my pills, make another batch!" Zi Yan said with a grin.

"You finished them? That's over two hundred pills! You finished them in less than seven days? Are you kidding me!" Xiao Li's voice rose considerably.

Zi Yan lowered her head somewhat awkwardly: "It's just that I feel like I'm about to break through, but I feel like I'm still lacking energy."

"Well, I'm busy again."
