Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 193 Three Thousand Burning Flames

"I understand." Xiao Jue nodded and said, "Let's do it your way. Gu Yuan also knows that the Ancient Clan is no match for the Soul Clan, and we can't let the Soul Clan wipe out the other clans."

The most important reason why Gu Yuan didn't take action after the Xiao Clan was destroyed by the Soul Clan was because he was wary. The Xiao Clan, which had Xiao Xuan, was wiped out by the Soul Clan, while the Soul Clan suffered heavy losses but was not fundamentally harmed.

Gu Yuan was worried that the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan would be weakened by each other, allowing other clans to take advantage of the situation. However, it was more accurate to say that the Ancient Clan, the Soul Clan, and five other clans were facing off against each other rather than just the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan.

Apart from the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan, the remaining five clans are all opportunists, trying to maintain a balance as much as possible.

Back then, Xiao Xuan could still fight back with all his might, but now, apart from the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan, other clans don't even have the right to fight back.

The two made another spatial jade slip and handed it to Xiao Jue before leaving together. They returned to their respective clans to begin their investigation, hoping to determine if there were any Soul Clan spies among them.

Xiao Jue forced out a drop of blood and handed it to Long Yan, saying slowly, "Go to the Pill Tower to find your teacher first. As for the Three Thousand Burning Flames... let's leave them for Xiao Yan."

Xiao Jue hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to let Xuan Yi devour the Three Thousand Burning Flames or leave it for Xiao Yan to devour. In the end, he chose Xiao Yan.

It's not that Teacher Xuanyi's beautiful legs aren't attractive anymore, but rather that Xiao Yan, who has cultivated the Burning Blade Technique, is there to protect Xiao Jue. If something unexpected happens and he fails to defeat the Soul Emperor, Xiao Yan can still receive the inheritance of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe in the future.

This is why Xiao Jue, despite his many schemes, never considered using the soul essence of the Heavenly Tomb to enhance his soul power, because only Xiao Yan, possessing an Emperor-level soul, could successfully receive the inheritance of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe.

Long Yan received Xiao Jue's essence blood, and in a flash, he left the Northwest Continent and headed to the Central Continent. Once he reached the Pill Tower and obtained the sub-flame of the Three Thousand Burning Flames, he would return and give it to Xiao Jue to devour. After that, Long Yan could go to the Nine Netherworld Python Clan to refine pills for Yao Ming.

The original plan was for Long Yan to refine the essence blood of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint and break through to the next level, and then refine the Thunder Tribulation Pill in the Void Thunder Pool. However, now that there is an opportunity to raise his soul power to the Great Perfection of the Heaven Realm before refining the pill, there is no rush.

Xiao Jue sat cross-legged on the ground, not taking out the Black Demon Cauldron, but instead using the Strange Fire to condense the cauldron and begin refining pills. With his soul power reaching the early stage of the Heaven Realm, he could also condense the Strange Fire.

However, while one cannot refine a ninth-grade precious pill using battle qi, one can still use the strange fire condensing cauldron to refine an eighth-grade pill of nine-colored pill thunder in advance.

After carefully selecting from the pill formulas, Xiao Jue planned to refine some Rank 8 pills for healing, restoring soul power, and fighting spirit.

……

After arriving in the Pill Domain, Long Yan tore through space and entered the Star Domain directly.

The so-called star field is a space forcibly torn apart by the three giants of the Pill Tower. This space is naturally not comparable to strange places like the Pill Realm or the Ancient Realm, and it looks quite desolate.

A faint, scorching mist permeated the surroundings, with a few faint rays of light seeping into the space, making the light here appear slightly cold.

Before Long Yan was a colossal dragon whose length was nowhere in sight. The dragon's eyes were closed, and its body was coiled and twisted. A strange, purplish-black flame swirled around its massive body, and as the flame rose, the surrounding space seemed to distort.

In the vast void, a giant dragon coiled, with purplish-black flames constantly seeping out from its body, burning tirelessly. This magnificent scene evoked an overwhelming sense of awe.

"Who dares to invade my Dan Tower!"

A sharp rebuke rang out, and Long Yan turned around to see a stunningly beautiful woman standing there, staring at him in astonishment.

Xuan Yi was still wearing the same purple cheongsam as before, revealing her snow-white collarbone and a pair of slender, beautiful legs.

The man in black exclaimed in surprise, "You're Xiao Jue?"

Long Yan cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, Guild Master Xuan Yi. I am Long Yan, Xiao Jue's avatar, an external manifestation formed from the Yin-Yang Twin Flames."

"That's still Xiao Jue." Xuan Yi chuckled lightly, then stepped forward, his tone playful: "Have you decided how your teacher will toy with you?"

Long Yan took a step back, cupped his hands, and said, "President Xuan Yi, I am not Xiao Jue. If you want him... you should go to the Northwest Continent to find him."

Xuan Yi's face turned pale as she glared angrily at Long Yan. Did he mean to imply that she was thirsty?

Sensing Long Yan's realm, Xuan Yi was shocked, but thinking of the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit from back then, he felt he could accept it.

The man in black coldly said, "If you're not Xiao Jue, what are you doing here? This is the territory of the Pill Tower, and outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering."

"Take a small portion of the Three Thousand Burning Flames." Long Yan flicked his finger, turning a drop of purplish-gold blood into a dragon seal that landed on the Three Thousand Burning Flames' forehead.

Then Long Yan waved his hand and tore out a wisp of the Three Thousand Burning Flames, about one-tenth of the original flame and half of the Three Thousand Burning Flames' energy.

It's impossible for Xiao Yan to successfully devour the Three Thousand Burning Flames, which is comparable to a high-level semi-saint. He could take away half of the Three Thousand Burning Flames' energy, and then he could easily devour the Three Thousand Burning Flames later.

The latest novel is first published here!

Then Long Yan's figure flashed and he left, leaving behind the enraged Xuan Yi to suppress the equally enraged Three Thousand Burning Flames.

After returning to the Pill Tower, Xuan Yi also collected medicinal herbs and refined a Nine Yuan Treasure Pill. After taking it, he broke through to the late stage of the Two-Star Dou Sheng.

Now, Xuan Yi could easily suppress the Three Thousand Burning Flames, whose strength had fallen to the peak of Dou Zun.

Long Yan didn't care about Xuan Yi's thoughts. If all else failed, he would make Xiao Jue suffer for a while and then make him work hard to appease Xuan Yi.

Having obtained the sub-flame of the Three Thousand Burning Flames, Long Yan returned directly to the Northwest Continent, handed the sub-flame to Xiao Jue, and then vanished in a flash.

Long Yan is currently at the early stage of a four-star Dou Sheng. Even if Xiao Jue absorbs the sub-flame of the Three Thousand Burning Flames, which is comparable to the Yin-Yang Twin Flames of the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, it won't enhance him much and won't be able to help Long Yan break through.

Long Yan then planned to refine pills for a period of time in the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, turning all the medicinal materials in his hands into Grade 8 pills and Grade 9 treasure pills of Nine-Colored Thunder Pills, while waiting for Yan Jin and Lei Ying's actions.

There's no rush to refine the essence blood of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint. It will be used later to perform the Spirit Ascension Secret Technique. Compared to the improvement that a drop of essence blood would bring to Long Yan, it's better to evolve a top-grade ninth-rank treasure pill into a ninth-rank profound pill.

Long Yan dared not attempt to refine the Fire Emperor's Divine Blood Pill a second time, as it was still too dangerous. His soul power was exhausted to the limit, and his soul almost collapsed. He would try to refine the Ninth Grade Profound Pill again when his soul power could be raised to the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Realm.

……

Xiao Jue looked at the sub-flame of the Three Thousand Burning Flames that Long Yan had sent, which had already been sealed by Long Yan. After successfully refining the pills in the fire cauldron, Xiao Jue took the sub-flame of the Three Thousand Burning Flames and used spatial power to return to the inner courtyard.
