Battle Through the Heavens: I confronted Xiao Yan, and he begged me to be his elder brother.

Chapter 70 Crisis? No, it's an opportunity!

On this day, as usual, Hun Cang went to the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

Along the way, Elder Lin, Elder Su, and several other elders came up. When they met, Hun Cang smiled politely.

After Hun Cang's figure disappeared around the corner, Elder Su couldn't help but look at Elder Lin and ask, "I heard that you failed to take on a disciple, so you found yourself a senior brother?"

"Hahaha, yes, Old Lin, why didn't you greet Hun Cang when you saw him? You have no manners at all," another elder laughed.

The other elders looked at Elder Lin, who looked embarrassed, and couldn't help but laugh.

Elder Lin said angrily, "What do you all know? We alchemists value ability above all else, regardless of age. Do you understand?"

Elder Su shook his head, his smile fading, and said seriously, "Elder Lin, is Hun Cang really better at alchemy than you?"

The elders around them also composed themselves.

After all, if Elder Lin hadn't actually said it, probably no one would have believed it.

In the field of alchemy at Canaan Academy, Elder Lin is second to none, and only one other person can claim to be number one.

But now, it's truly unbelievable that a young man has surpassed Elder Lin, who only respected one person.

A look of reminiscence flashed in Elder Lin's eyes, and he sighed, "Yes, I don't want to admit it, but it's the truth. When I first saw that Hun Cang possessed a strange fire, I found it odd, but now I finally understand."

"Elder Lin, please explain in more detail. What exactly makes Hun Cang so powerful that even this old stubborn man who has been immersed in alchemy for a hundred years is willing to bow down to him?" an elder asked curiously.

Because even the top alchemist at Canaan Academy has not been able to make Elder Lin submit over the years.

It was quite unexpected that he would bow down to a young man in the end.

Elder Lin laughed and said, "As you all know, for alchemists, fire control is an important basic skill. Refining medicinal liquids and condensing pills both require careful control of the fire. Even I sometimes fail. But for Hun Cang, the flame is like a part of his body. With just a thought, the flame will carry it out without resistance."

As he spoke, Elder Lin couldn't help but show a hint of envy in his eyes. He had never seen anyone control fire so skillfully before.

Elder Su looked surprised, his mouth slightly agape. He knew that Hun Cang possessed a strange fire, and Canaan Academy was no stranger to strange fires.

It exists in the underground part of the Heavenly Burning Refining Tower.

The ferocity and terror of the Fallen Heart Flame, even after being suppressed for so many years, have not been diminished in the slightest.

Hun Cang is truly remarkable for being able to manipulate the strange fire so skillfully.

The other elders also showed similar expressions.

Along the way, Elder Lin continued speaking, and the other elders listened attentively.

……

Upon reaching the bottom, Hun Cang's gaze first fell upon the wellhead, a fiery glint flashing in his eyes.

The Fallen Heart Flame's true form is sealed inside.

However, the sight of the figures sitting cross-legged around him dispelled his idea.

Withdrawing his gaze, Hun Cang entered the alchemy room, took out his items one by one, and quickly entered a meditative state.

After an unknown amount of time, the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower suddenly emitted violent fluctuations.

Hun Cang opened his eyes, disturbed by the noise. He put away his things and asked in confusion, "What's going on?"

Once outside, there were originally seven elders, but now only three remain.

An elder looked at Hun Cang: "Leave the lower level quickly."

"What happened?" Hun Cang asked.

"Those lunatics from the Black Corner Region launched a surprise attack on Canaan Academy today, and the elders have already rushed to provide support." The elder spoke rapidly, "You should also leave quickly. If the Fallen Heart Flame were to riot at this time, it would be dangerous to stay in the tower."

"Yes." Hun Cang nodded, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, which was then replaced by joy.

That's wonderful! Even the heavens are on my side!

The elders were all gathered at the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, which prevented Hun Cang from making a move.

Now that the elders have been led away, he must seize the opportunity!

After turning the corner, Hun Cang quickly hid in a room when no one was paying attention. He searched the room briefly but didn't see anyone else.

Afterwards, Hun Cang concealed his strength and waited quietly.

"The people of the Black Corner Region may be crazy, but they are definitely not insane. They dared to besiege Canaan Academy, there must be a conspiracy involved." Hun Cang pondered silently, "Moreover, they dared to make such a big commotion. I myself don't believe they didn't have some ulterior motive."

Time passed slowly, and suddenly a terrifying energy emanated from below.

Hun Cang's eyes narrowed: "It's the Fallen Heart Flame. It has sensed the situation outside and is preparing to break through the seal."

Almost as soon as he had this thought, a furious roar and a violent, powerful battle aura rang out from outside.

A terrifyingly high temperature instantly filled the air inside the tower, as if it were about to set everything ablaze.

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

Hun Cang's expression remained unchanged, and a faint flame appeared within his body, covering his entire body, and the heat that had just appeared immediately subsided.

He peeked out and glanced around; his entire field of vision was filled with fiery red flames.

As you descend the passage, the elder is no longer seen beside the ancient well that sealed the Fallen Heart Flame, and the area around the well is covered with a large amount of lava.

The fiery red liquid, due to the high temperature, had not yet cooled and solidified, and continued to flow slowly, still tinged with red.

A pair of battle qi wings condensed behind Hun Cang, and then he jumped straight into the cave entrance.

"According to my senses, the true form of the Fallen Heart Flame is still hidden below. My chance has come!" Hun Cang couldn't suppress the joy on his face as he rushed into the magma.

……

outside world.

Above the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, countless flames flickered, dominating the sky. The scorching heat made the elders' expressions solemn.

A large number of students were moving away from the Skyfire Refining Tower at an extremely fast speed. Along the way, people kept turning their heads, their eyes trembling as they caught sight of the flames that covered the sky.

"Elder Su!" Seeing a figure rushing over, the elders at the top of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower seemed to have found their pillar of support, and their expressions relaxed somewhat.

Elder Su looked down, as if he could pierce through the building's obstruction, and said gravely, "The seal has been broken?"

An elder nodded solemnly: "We were deceived by the Fallen Heart Flame. It had been quiet all this time, but it turned out it had been accumulating power. Just now, it took the opportunity to rage, and we couldn't stop it at all."

Elder Su glanced at the elders present and saw that many of them had their hair and beards burned off. He sighed helplessly.

Over the years, the Fallen Heart Flame has been growing stronger, its power now many times more terrifying than when it was sealed.

Elder Su took a deep breath and said, "Everyone, let's work together to stop the Fallen Heart Flame from spreading. I have already notified the Grand Elder and the others, and they will be here shortly."

"Yes," the surrounding elders immediately replied, and then each of them stirred up their fighting spirit.

Streaks of battle energy formed barriers, interconnected, like a giant dome enveloping the flames.

The flames surged and surged, and immediately an invisible force seemed to be moving, trying to break through the barrier.

"Hmph, with me here, you won't succeed!" Elder Su snorted coldly, raised his hand and sent out a burst of battle qi. The invisible energy body disappeared and re-formed in another place.

Elder Su was taken aback: "So weak! What happened?"
