Under the crushing force of the terrifying sealing space array, Xiao Yanzi almost realized its grand ambition: to soar freely in the sky.

Even fire needs dreams; what if they come true?

But at the very last step, Elder Su Qian, along with many other elders, cruelly crushed its dream. Despair filled Xiao Yanzi's lantern-like eyes. It was just one step away, just one step away! Its dream was about to come true!

just

Thinking of this, Xiao Yanzi roared and his temper flared up. He rampaged through the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, constantly crashing into the hole at the top of the tower, trying to break through the net-like sealing space formation again. However, with Su Qian and many other elders restraining him, no matter how Xiao Yanzi attacked, he could not shake the net-like sealing space formation in the slightest.

"Did I hear that right? The Fallen Heart Flame Spirit seems to be speaking human language?!" Su Qian looked at the elders around him with a face full of questions.

Elder Liu nodded. "I think I heard it just now too. It was talking about dreams."

"It seems to be saying that you can't stop me from pursuing my dreams." Elder Zhongsun was also puzzled at first, wondering if he hadn't slept well last night and was hallucinating, but since Su Qian and Elder Liu both said it, he was certain.

"Fire has dreams? How strange!"

The elders all echoed this sentiment.

Ye Ningyan looked back sadly at the distant mountain ruins, wishing she could fly there immediately and dig Xiao Xuanyuan out.

Chapter Seventy-Four: Melee

"Haha, elders, it's been a long time."

While Su Qian was reinforcing the thousand-layered sealing space formation with nearly twenty elders, Han Feng led a large group of people from afar and arrived in front of them in the blink of an eye.

Upon seeing that it was Han Feng, Su Qian's expression changed drastically, but after a moment, she regained her composure. Her gaze slowly moved, taking in Han Feng and his group, her brows furrowing. "Medicine King Han Feng, what are you doing at our Canaan Academy? And why did you bring so many people?"

Upon hearing this, Han Feng immediately burst into laughter. Even at such close range, he had already sensed the presence of the Fallen Heart Flame, right there in the inner courtyard where many elders were forming a spatial sealing array.

"Haha, Elder Su Qian, I usually give you some leeway because you are a Dou Zong realm expert. But how can I let such a rare treasure slip by?"

"Han Feng, I know you are a Medicine King in the Black Corner Region, capable of refining sixth-grade pills, and a giant in your own right. But do you really think you can cause trouble at Canaan Academy with just a bunch of people like you? Aren't you being a bit arrogant?!"

Su Qian sneered on his serious face. Although the current situation was unfavorable to his side, he was still not afraid. Without this courage, he probably wouldn't be able to become the Grand Elder of the Inner Court.

Now that the two sides are locked in a stalemate, there is no need to expend their fighting spirit to reinforce the thousand-layered sealing space formation, so the many elders of the inner courtyard have stopped what they are doing.

"Hehe, then I'm sorry to offend you!" Han Feng cupped his hands in a respectful bow, putting on a polite but hypocritical act, but in reality, he was already preparing to make a move.

Take a break!

Just then, several whooshing sounds came from afar, causing both sides to turn their heads. A moment later, Hu Qian, the dean of the outer academy, arrived with a large group of experts from the outer academy.

As soon as Hu Qian and the others arrived, they landed beside Su Qian and stood on the same side as the many elders of the inner courtyard.

Hu Qian stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Elder, I apologize for being late."

“You’ve come at the right time,” Su Qian simply nodded, then her eyes flashed with a sharp light as she coldly stared at Han Feng’s face. “Han Feng, you can leave now. Canaan Academy does not welcome you.”

"What a joke! Who do you take me for? Do you think I'm someone you can just order around? Now, if you don't hand over the Fallen Heart Flame obediently, don't blame us for turning our backs on you."

Han Feng sneered, and a pale blue battle aura surged from his body. He opened his palm forward, and a deep blue flame slowly swirled in his palm. As the flame rose, it flowed like clear seawater, slowly spreading out, with gentle ripples like water waves.

Seeing the deep blue flame in Han Feng's palm and feeling the rising heat around him, Su Qian's eyes showed a hint of apprehension as he said, "Since you already possess a different kind of flame, why do you still covet our Inner Court's Fallen Heart Flame? Don't you know that an alchemist can only refine one different kind of flame in their lifetime?"

"Hmph, you're talking about others, but that doesn't mean I am the Emperor. If I could obtain this Fallen Heart Flame, it would greatly benefit me," Han Feng said dismissively. After a moment, his expression turned cold. "I'll give you one last chance. Hand over the Fallen Heart Flame, or not?"

"You're overthinking it!"

Su Qian suddenly produced a long halberd, and his aura surged forth, directly attacking Han Feng and the others opposite him.

"Then don't blame me for being ruthless," Han Feng sneered, then called out to those behind him, "Elder Jin, Elder Yin, thank you for your trouble!"

Standing behind Han Feng, two elderly men with strange skin colors, one gold and one silver, stepped forward to greet Su Qian, the Grand Elder of the Inner Court, who was opposite them.

The two elders, Jin and Yin, are both at the peak of the nine-star Dou Huang level. Individually, they may not be very strong, but they cultivate the same lineage technique, complementing each other. When they join forces, their power is immense, and they can even defeat experts at the Dou Zong level.

Upon seeing the two elders, Jin and Yin, Su Qian's expression changed slightly. He had naturally heard of their reputations, but now that things had come to this, there was no way to back down. The three of them immediately began to fight, their powerful energy radiating outwards and sweeping around them.

Hu Qian, the dean of the outer academy, was also a peak nine-star Dou Huang expert. His opponent was Fan Lao, the sect master of the Blood Sect, who was also an expert of the same level. The two immediately attacked and engaged in a fierce battle.

In addition, the leaders of the Eight Gates, the Earth Flame Gate, and the Demon Realm Gate were all rare Douhuang-level experts. They led a group of Ganmen students and attacked simultaneously against more than twenty Douwang-level elders from Canaan Academy, with countless bursts of energy blasting out.

For a time, the two sides fought fiercely. In the sky and on the ground, their figures were in a chaotic battle, with thunderous roars, cracking earth, and countless bursts of energy shooting out, blasting everything around them.

The two sides clashed immediately and engaged in fierce combat. The three sect leaders of the Earth Flame Sect, the Eight Gates Sect, and the Demon Realm Sect, with their Dou Huang realm strength, simultaneously withstood the attacks of three or four inner academy elders who were at the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Wang realm. They were not at a disadvantage and even had a slight advantage. The remaining disciples also rushed forward, with several of them working together to hold off the remaining academy elders.

In a corner of the inner courtyard, Marina and Daphne gathered together, assessing the current situation within the courtyard.

"Your Majesty, that person is already dead. Shouldn't we retreat now?" Daphne asked doubtfully. After witnessing Xiao Xuanyuan being struck by the azure lightning, she had already assumed he was dead.

With so many people in the inner courtyard watching, Xiao Xuanyuan plummeted from tens of thousands of miles in the sky, and without any battle qi wings to slow him down, he was definitely smashed into a pulp at that height.

“Daphne, don’t worry, the soul contract within us hasn’t dissipated yet, and there’s still a faint trace of aura. Our master might not be dead!” Marina said uncertainly.

After spending time together, she discovered that her master, Xiao Xuanyuan, was not a bad person. On the contrary, he was incredibly charming, which sometimes left Marina bewildered. Moreover, she couldn't believe that such a brilliant genius could so easily perish under a blue thunderous celestial phenomenon; it was almost unbelievable.

Upon hearing this, Daphne frowned. "Impossible. Falling from such a height would be certain death."

She paused, then added, "If he doesn't die, what do we do now? Should we lend a hand to the inner court?"

"Let's wait and see if he can come back alive. Without his orders, we won't help anyone now, including those two girls named Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei."

Chapter Seventy-Five: The Devastation of Canaan Academy

On the scene, only Han Feng remained. Canaan Academy had no other opponents to stop him. "You can fight slowly. I will deal with you after I capture the Fallen Heart Flame."

Han Feng, riding on his Battle Qi Wings, instantly arrived at a section of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower. Here, he sensed the power of the Fallen Heart Flame, "Spear of the Sea God!"

With a summons, Han Feng formed hand seals, and his fiery battle aura surged into his palms. A blue, extremely sharp eight-foot-long spear appeared in his hand, with deep blue flames infused into it and swirling around the spear tip.

"Break for me!"

Holding a deep blue spear, Han Feng drew in countless fire elemental energies from the heavens and earth, continuously condensing and injecting them into the Spear of the Sea God. As the energy grew stronger, the deep blue spear burst forth with a brightness that pierced through the dark night sky, carrying an incomparably sharp and terrifying power. Han Feng held it with his bare hands and plunged it fiercely into the thousand-layered sealing space formation below!

Boom!

The thousand-layered sealing space formation shook violently. The deep blue spear was stuck in it, but it did not break through in one strike. After all, this formation was formed by the combined battle qi of about twenty elders from the inner courtyard. It could not be said to be indestructible, but at the very least, it was not something that Han Feng, a mere nine-star Dou Huang at the peak, could break.

Undeterred by the lack of effect from his first attack, Han Feng gripped the deep blue spear and raised it once more, beginning a second attempt to gather the power of heaven and earth from the surroundings.

"Someone is trying to break the seal from the outside! Haha, my chance has come!" On the top floor of the tower, Xiao Yanzi was extremely excited. At the same time, he mustered all his strength and kept trying to break the seal space formation.

After such a long period of attrition, Little Flame's accumulated flame energy over countless years has been nearly half depleted. It is no longer the peak form it possessed during its battle with Xiao Xuanyuan a few days ago. However, to pursue its dream, Little Flame is still determined to fight to the death and break free of this damned cage.

For freedom, for dreams

With this unwavering determination, Xiao Yanzi sprinted desperately, breaking through the thousand-layered sealing space formation that was under double attack with Han Feng's cooperation outside!

Boom!

Under Han Feng's tenth and subsequent attacks with the Spear of the Sea God, the thousand-layered sealing space array finally emitted a deafening roar, like a giant mirror shattering. The damage spread and broke off with a "crash," eventually covering the entire sealing space array and shattering completely.

With a roar, Xiao Yanzi leaped out of the huge hole on the first floor of the tower, letting out a roar that shocked all directions.

"I'm finally out! I, Xiao Yanzi, am finally going to realize my dream!"

With a roar, Xiao Yanzi was about to soar into the sky to roam freely when suddenly, a large yellow net fell from the sky, growing larger with the wind and instantly becoming hundreds of feet in size, covering Xiao Yanzi who had just escaped from the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

OMG! What the heck?!

Xiao Yanzi tried to break free, but the yellow net of light was made of some unknown material and was extremely cold. The invisible flames it spewed could not burn it, nor could the invisible flames emanating from its body cause any damage. Xiao Yanzi panicked. It was about to realize its dream, so why was someone trying to capture it again as soon as it came out?

"Haha, I've caught the Fallen Heart Flame! It's like finding a needle in a haystack!" Han Feng was excited and was about to put away the Heavenly Silkworm Ice Net and run away with the Fallen Heart Flame when a figure suddenly appeared from the side.

"Han Feng, where do you think you're going!"

Su Qian is now at the peak of the three-star Dou Zong realm. Faced with the highly coordinated and tacit cooperation of the two elders, Jin and Yin, he was unable to break through their defenses and gain the upper hand, resulting in a draw.

Seeing Han Feng break through the thousand-layered sealing space array and grab the Fallen Heart Flame to take it away, he was extremely anxious. Ignoring the two elders, Jin and Yin, who were trying to hold back the attack, he forcibly pulled his hand away, turned around and shot towards Han Feng. He poured his battle qi into the halberd in his hand, which showed a sharp light more than ten feet long, and hit Han Feng in the distance.

The distance between the two seemed extremely far, but in front of a Dou Zong expert, it was merely a flick of the finger. In an instant, the sharp light of the halberd tore through the void, reached Han Feng, and struck him.

If Han Feng were struck by that sharp halberd, he would likely be seriously injured, if not killed.

As a peak nine-star Dou Huang and a sixth-grade alchemist, Han Feng's soul perception was naturally extremely sharp. Before the sharp light of the halberd pierced through the void and was about to strike, he reacted. He flapped his Dou Qi wings on his back, pulled himself up, and instantly flew into the sky, dodging Su Qian's fierce attack.

The sharp edge of the halberd swept through the void and slammed into the spot where Han Feng had just stood, unleashing a terrifying force that shattered the earth and created a deep crater.

However, due to Su Qian's distraction, the two elders, Jin and Yin, simultaneously unleashed their strongest combined attack. The two sharp beams, one gold and one silver, converged in the void, transforming into a rotating vortex of gold and silver that fiercely burrowed towards Su Qian's back.

boom!

Su Qian turned to block, swinging his halberd in a circle. However, caught off guard, his opponent was prepared. The powerful golden and silver vortex drill directly knocked the halberd out of his hand, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood and fly away like a kite with a broken string.

"Elder!"

Seeing Su Qian severely injured, all the elders around him were furious and cried out in shock. But as if it were a chain reaction, after Su Qian was defeated, one after another old figure was seriously injured, coughing up blood, flying backward and crashing to the ground. It seemed that Canaan Academy was in imminent danger!

Beneath the ruins of the mountain, Xiao Xuanyuan felt a tingling sensation throughout his body, as countless electric currents coursed through him. He twitched his fingers, and his consciousness instantly returned to his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Ouch! That hurts! I feel like all my bones are going to break!"

Xiao Xuanyuan felt a sharp pain all over his body as soon as he moved slightly.

"Hehe, you little rascal, you survived a great ordeal and have even awakened the Golden Horned Thunder Leopard's talent. Your good fortune will be endless from now on," the old medicine man's voice chuckled strangely.

"What Golden Horned Thunder Leopard talent?" Xiao Xuanyuan was still a bit dazed and hadn't reacted yet. After all, falling from tens of thousands of meters in the air, if it weren't for Yao Lao secretly protecting him, his copper head and iron arms would probably have been shaken to pieces.

"When you were practicing the Golden Cicada Concealment movement technique, didn't you devour a fourth-tier Golden Horned Thunder Leopard demon core? You've now activated its innate power, gaining both metal and lightning attribute powers. If you don't believe me, take a look at your second dantian." The old man's voice, whether envious or jealous, reached Xiao Xuanyuan's ears.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuanyuan focused his mind on his second dantian. At this moment, he saw a strange scene. His second dantian and meridians, which originally looked like machines, were filled with a large amount of lightning power. They were blended with the metal-type battle qi and flowed freely in the meridians.

Chapter 76 The kid's skills are pretty good!

"Where did this lightning power come from? Could it be..."

Just as Xiao Xuanyuan was wondering, Yao Lao's voice came again, "This is the power of the Azure Thunder Celestial Phenomenon. You've turned misfortune into fortune, kid. Because you transformed into the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Giant Sword and cut into the Azure Thunder Celestial Phenomenon, you passively activated the Golden Horned Thunder Leopard's innate attributes. Now, you can not only cultivate Fire Battle Qi, but also Golden Thunder Battle Qi. Moreover, your talent is not necessarily lower than Fire Battle Qi. You have three top-level talents. I'm truly envious."

“Oh,” Xiao Xuanyuan stretched out his hand, and a crackling blue lightning battle aura appeared on his palm. With a thought, golden battle aura also appeared, gleaming with a bright metallic luster.

"Open it for me!"

With a soft shout, Xiao Xuanyuan punched the countless huge rocks pressing down on him. With a deafening roar, countless pieces of rock exploded and flew in all directions.
