Douluo: The Dragon King's Descent of the Gods

Chapter 78 Heavenly Flame Soul Burning Tower (9/10)

Meng Xinghe led Gu Yuena along the way and they didn't see many people. The huge academy seemed unusually deserted.

This is because the academy's winter and summer vacation times are uniformly stipulated by the Federation, so the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy has already started its winter vacation. Teachers and students have all gone home, so it is naturally deserted and there are not many people.

"What a huge academy!" Gu Yuena exclaimed. "It's almost as big as the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, isn't it?"

"About the same, a little bit bigger than the core area." Meng Xinghe turned to look at Gu Yuena and smiled, "Come on, I'll take you to a place. Even though it's winter break now, that place is definitely still crowded and lively."

He hailed a driverless, fully automated soul-guided sightseeing vehicle, and he and Gu Yuena boarded it together. They located their desired destination on the navigation interface and set off.

"Xinghe, this is quite convenient. You can explore the entire academy without having to walk around. Why doesn't Donghai Academy have these things?"

I don't think this car is expensive, right?

Although she doesn't have much of a concept of money, she has a very good eye for things.

With the current level of soul guidance technology, cars equipped with autonomous driving technology are not much more expensive than manually driven cars.

"It's not expensive, but Donghai Academy isn't very big, so the academy doesn't think it's necessary."

"Hold on tight, I'm going to speed things up, otherwise it'll take too long." Meng Xinghe changed the settings, turning the sightseeing bus up to its maximum power. The driverless system started speeding, taking them on a wild ride, staging a Douluo Continent version of Fast and Furious.

The wind was strong and the light was a bit blinding. Gu Yuena took out two pairs of sunglasses, giving one to Xinghe and putting the other on herself.

Half an hour later, Gu Yuena stepped off the sightseeing bus with her hair disheveled and looked through her sunglasses at a giant tower that seemed to reach into the clouds.

At the foot of the tower, a group of people gathered together, creating quite a lively scene.

"This is—" Gu Yuena took out her phone, took a picture and searched. The intelligent AI immediately sorted out the search results by breaking through the web pages and organizing the information.

[Heavenly Flame Soul Burning Tower]

One of the treasures of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, it has a history of thousands of years.

The Heavenly Flame Soul Tower can generate a special kind of Heavenly Flame Fire, which can constantly burn the spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in the air and the soul power in the soul master's body, greatly revitalizing the activity of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the soul power. Cultivating in the tower can improve the soul master's cultivation speed, with remarkable effects.

Even Soul Masters with ordinary talents can experience the cultivation speed of having full innate Soul Power when entering the Heavenly Flame Soul Burning Tower.

Gu Yuena looked at the description and pictures, then turned to Meng Xinghe with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why is this Heavenly Flame seven-colored?"

"Because the Heavenly Flame has nothing to do with my divine bloodline," Meng Xinghe explained. "The Heavenly Flame originates from the Seven-Colored Lotus and is the natal true fire possessed only by the royal bloodline of the Fire Li Clan."

The Fire Li tribe hails from the distant planet Falan, living in the Crimson Sea there. Every member of the tribe is a natural master of fire element, possessing extraordinary combat prowess. Wherever there is magma, they are virtually immortal, but this also means they cannot stray far from magma-filled areas for extended periods, otherwise they will gradually weaken and perish.

The spacetime turbulence thousands of years ago not only swept away the Douluo God Realm, but also brought a devastating disaster to the planet Falan.

A spacetime turbulence swept in an asteroid that collided with the planet Falan. Although the inhabitants of Falan used all their global resources to create the Seven Divine Pearls in order to cope with this prophetic disaster, the Seven Divine Pearls, on which they placed their high hopes, could not help them withstand the calamity.

Ultimately, the asteroid that caused this disaster shattered, and the main continent of Falan Star—the Fairy Continent—was broken into several parts. The Crimson Sea, where the Fire Li Clan lived, was also affected, and a large number of spatial rifts were created. A Fire Li Clan member was unfortunately caught in a spatial rift and coincidentally arrived in Douluo Continent.

The leader of this branch of the Fire Li Clan is named Huo Tian. He possesses the pure royal blood of the Fire Li Clan and is a standout among the younger generation, as well as one of the successors to the clan chief. If he hadn't been swept into the Douluo Continent by the spatial rift, he would likely have already inherited the position of Fire Li Clan chief.

Knowing that the Fire Li Clan would be brought to Douluo Continent by the spacetime turbulence, Meng Xinghe had been preparing for that period of time. As soon as the Fire Li Clan arrived on Douluo Continent, he found them and thoughtfully arranged for them to live in a magma-filled small plane attached to Douluo Star.

In return, Huo Tian separated a seed of his own natal fire, the Seven-Colored Lotus, and gave it to Meng Xinghe.

In addition, Huotian has one small request.

He asked this friendly stranger, who could exert a blood pressure on him, if he could help him find a way back to his hometown.

He possesses the purest royal bloodline of the Huoli Clan. The fact that he can suppress the other party's bloodline indicates that their origins are extraordinary and they are certainly not beings born from the weak Douluo Star.

Although Douluo Star is not bad, it is still far inferior to his hometown, Falan Star.

Meng Xinghe agreed to Huo Tian's request, but he remained noncommittal about Huo Tian's views on Douluo Star.

Douluo Star itself is indeed no match for Falan Star, but who can blame us when Douluo Star is the protagonist of this universe?

Douluo Star is like Tang Sanzang's flesh; all sorts of demons and monsters will come uninvited.

The Abyss Plane, the Demon Plane, ancient coins containing golden Behemoths, the Fire Li Clan, the Dragon Graveyard, the remains of the Ice and Fire Dragon King.

The Evil Eye Clan, Electrolux, the Silver Dragon King, and even the transmigrator Tang San —

"The Seven-Colored Lotus is an extremely powerful flame, but in order to maintain the purity of the divine bloodline, I did not refine that natal flame. Instead, I refined it into an external divine ability with fire attributes, which has the potential for growth."

"The true purpose of the Heavenly Flame Soul Tower is to serve as a growth vessel for this external divine ability. The Heavenly Flame Fire, which can increase cultivation speed, is merely a byproduct of the divine ability's growth path. The Heavenly Flame Fire is most suitable for Soul Master Academy, so I used my connections to install the Heavenly Flame Soul Tower at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy."

Gu Yuena was fascinated by the legendary historical stories.

First there was Ilex from the Holy Demon Continent, then the Fire Clan from the Star of Farland—Douluo Star truly is a place where hidden talents abound! She removed her sunglasses, looked up at the towering structure that pierced the clouds, and speculated, "The Heavenly Flame Soul-Burning Tower, as a vessel for the growth of external divine abilities, must be extraordinary in itself, right? Like the scabbard you forged for me, is it also a divine artifact?"

"No, how could that be?" Meng Xinghe wiped his sweat and shook his head. "The Heavenly Flame Soul Burning Tower is a physical object. How many resources would it take to forge such a large physical artifact?"

"The Heavenly Flame Soul Tower itself is just a rather special soul tool. I have granted it the authority to connect to the sky authority of Douluo Star, drawing on the power of the sky to nurture the external divine power placed in the space at the top of the tower."
