Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

"How come he's walking with that person?"

As he spoke, a hint of lingering fear flashed in his eyes.

Just thinking about the miserable state of that nine-star Dou Ling on the Strong Ranking made Brother Liu shudder involuntarily.

Not only Brother Liu, but Chen Bin's face was also full of fear at this moment.

"I don't know either, he is indeed a freshman."

"The opponent's strength is like that of a monster."

“I heard that even if the other senior students from the Fire Energy Hunting Competition teamed up, they still couldn’t beat him.”

"That's why I invited you here, Brother Liu."

Chen Bin's older brother, Chen Tao, is a powerful figure in the Inner Court, serving as the president of the Hundred Medicines Merchants Association.

The Hundred Medicines Merchants Association is an organization established by the inner court students of the Alchemy Department.

Chen Tao is also on the list of top performers.

Although it is only an eight-star Dou Ling.

However, he is a fourth-grade alchemist!

This allowed him to thrive in the inner courtyard.

A powerful alchemist can thrive anywhere.

There are still many students majoring in alchemy within the Hundred Medicines Merchant Guild.

What they do is trade in elixirs and medicinal herbs.

In fact, this Hundred Medicines Merchants Association was the predecessor of the Medicine Gang.

As for Brother Liu, whose real name is Liu Tiandong, he is not a student in the alchemy department.

However, the opponent was powerful, a Seven-Star Battle Spirit.

He is also on the top list.

With such a powerful figure joining, the Hundred Medicines Merchants Association would certainly not refuse.

Because Xiao Yang stole his fire energy, Chen Bin asked Liu Tiandong for help.

Liu Tiandong immediately agreed.

Besides the fact that Chen Tao had given him a lot of pills, he also wanted to make a name for the Hundred Medicines Merchants Association among the new students.

However, they did not expect that upon arrival, they would see Medusa following behind Xiao Yang.

Although they didn't know the relationship between Medusa and Xiao Yang, after seeing Medusa, none of them dared to cause trouble for Xiao Yang.

Not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

"Let's go back and tell your older brother about this."

Liu Tiandong said to Chen Bin.

Chen Bin, of course, dared not object.

……

With Medusa by their side, Xiao Yang and his companions would not be disturbed at all.

He found that most students would deliberately avoid Medusa after seeing her.

Of course, they were mostly male students.

Their eyes held a hint of fear as they looked at Medusa.

Although Medusa was beautiful, she was a rose with thorns.

Seeing Xiao Yang standing so close to Medusa, many people looked at him with a hint of admiration.

Led by Medusa, the four of them soon arrived at the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

At this moment, a number of students from the inner academy are gathered here.

They surrounded the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower in the center, making it completely invisible to Xiao Yang.

However, with Medusa's arrival, the crowd around them dispersed slightly.

The Heavenly Flame Refining Tower in the center of the group was finally revealed to Xiao Yang and his companions.

Looking at the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower in front of him, Xiao Yang couldn't help but marvel.

The Heavenly Flame Refining Tower was located in a huge pit.

The black body of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower is mostly inside the pit.

Above ground, there is only a small section of the spire and a dark entrance.

There was also a faint barrier around the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

With this barrier in place, the surrounding space is slightly distorted.

Xiao Yang knew that this should be the same spatial barrier he had seen in the library before.

At this moment, around the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower were some powerful beings.

Xiao Yang could sense that these people were all Dou Ling.

They must be the strongest among the inner court students.

The other students in the inner academy were divided into small circles.

They either stayed outside or stayed with a few powerful cultivators.

Medusa seemed not to see these people at all, and led Xiao Yang and Little Fairy Doctor directly to the entrance.

Seeing the four people cutting in line, none of the inner court students present dared to say anything.

However, their gazes toward Xiao Yang and the other two held a hint of curiosity.

They were very curious about who Xiao Yang and his group were, and how they could know Medusa.

After Medusa entered, many people bowed to her.

"Greetings, Elder Medusa!"

"Greetings, Elder Medusa!"

Medusa glanced at them indifferently and said nothing.

Just then, a bell rang.

All eyes turned to the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

"Open the tower!"

An aged voice came from inside the tower.

Chapter 221 Fallen Heart Flame

As the aged voice rang out, the dark passage on the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower slowly opened.

However, the inner court students, who usually rush in as soon as the door opens, afraid of wasting a single second, are now standing obediently behind Xiao Yang and his group of four.

Medusa looked at Xiao Yang, Little Fairy Doctor, and Qing Lin and gave them instructions.

"Within the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, there is a strange inner fire."

"According to the elder of the Inner Court, that is a sub-flame of the Fallen Heart Flame."

"The Fallen Heart Flame is the fourteenth ranked Strange Flame on the Strange Flame Ranking."

"Its function is very powerful; it can help cultivators purify their battle qi."

"After you go in, the Fallen Heart Flame will project its sub-flames into your bodies."

"Don't panic when you see the sub-fire. Just pass your fighting spirit through the sub-fire and it will be purified by the sub-fire."

"Remember to use your battle aura to pass through the sub-fire as soon as possible."

"Otherwise, if the sub-fire stays in the body for too long, it may even burn away the body's meridians."

Many people who enter the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower for the first time have suffered from this.

Therefore, there are special elders in the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower who are responsible for guiding the new students.

When Medusa first came, she managed to survive thanks to her immense strength and some resistance to the strange fire.

Because she evolved into the Eight-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python through the power of the strange fire, Medusa has some resistance to it.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang nodded, although he did not believe that a small wisp of fire could harm him.

But he still kept it in mind.

After giving the two instructions, Medusa led Xiao Yang and the other two into the room.

After the four entered, the inner court students also rushed in.

……

Not long after entering the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, Xiao Yang felt a wisp of flame appear within his body.

He did not immediately use the wisp of fire to purify his battle aura as Medusa had instructed.

He planned to try using the primordial fire to see if he could devour this wisp of fire and give the primordial law the characteristics of the Fallen Heart Flame.

This way, he wouldn't need to specifically seek out opportunities to come into contact with the Fallen Heart Flame.

However, to Xiao Yang's disappointment, after the Origin Fire devoured this wisp of fire, only the Origin Fire's own essence was slightly strengthened.

Moreover, the increase is so small that it can be completely ignored.

As for the characteristics of the Fallen Heart Flame, they are completely absent.

He refined other fire-attribute treasures, and the increase in power was greater than this.

After refining the sub-fire, Xiao Yang opened his eyes and looked ahead.

An old man was standing next to Medusa.

"Tsk tsk, even with your reminder, waking up so quickly on the first try is really impressive."
