At this moment, her heart was already in a mess, and it seemed as if hot steam would rise from her head at any time. Such a shy look really made people feel pity for her.
"Haha, who told you two girls to provoke me? In that case, I will naturally accept everything. In short, don't even think about escaping in this life." Xiao Ling smiled softly, his tone full of unreasonableness.
The two women were unable to refute Xiao Ling's words. Tracing back to the source, it was because they had developed a liking for Xiao Ling first that led to the current situation.
Although this is somewhat different from their initial expectations, judging from the current situation, at least the goal has been achieved to some extent.
"Okay, you should leave this star field first. If Elder Xiang and the others see that you are not coming back for a long time, they will definitely be worried." Xiao Ling gently stroked the hair of the two women and said with a smile, his tone revealing a sense of relaxation and care.
As Xiao Ling finished speaking, the two women slowly pulled themselves out of his embrace. Their eyes showed reluctance, but at the same time they also knew that it was not appropriate to stay too long at this moment.
Perhaps it was a telepathic connection, or perhaps it was a coincidence, but at the moment they were about to leave, the two women unexpectedly and simultaneously gave Xiao Ling a light kiss on both sides of his cheek.
Then, perhaps out of inner shyness, Cao Ying and Dan Chen did not say a word to Xiao Ling, not even a simple goodbye. Their bodies suddenly turned into two bright rays of light, like shooting stars across the night sky, and quickly flew towards the edge of the star field.
Xiao Ling stared at the two people's departing figures, stretched out his hands and gently touched both sides of his cheeks, as if he could still feel the warmth and fragrance.
Unconsciously, a faint smile appeared on Xiao Ling's lips. His gaze slowly shifted away and turned to the three thousand flames swirling behind him.
There was a hint of anticipation in his eyes, and he said softly, "Okay, no one else will disturb us, so it's time to get down to business..."
The Three Thousand Flames slowly lowered its huge dragon head, and its dragon eyes, which were as big as Xiao Ling's body, stared at Xiao Ling quietly, as if they could see into the depths of his soul.
"Human, I have decided to follow in your footsteps. I hope this is the right choice."
"Don't worry, Three Thousand Flames. I will never let you down. From now on, I will make sure you realize that choosing me is your wisest choice."
Xiao Ling faced the pair of deep dragon eyes calmly without any retreat. His voice was firm and confident.
"Under my control, the reputation of the Three Thousand Flames will surely shine more brightly and become more resounding on this Dou Qi Continent."
After receiving Xiao Ling's firm answer, Three Thousand Flames did not say anything else. The pair of majestic dragon eyes slowly closed, as if it had made a crucial decision.
Then, the huge body of the purple dragon formed by flames began to spread out slowly in all directions, like an irresistible and powerful force slowly spreading.
The fiery breath of the flames was like a surging wave, rolling towards every corner of this star field, and the air was filled with intense scorching waves.
The star space, which was originally silent and full of emptiness, was suddenly lit up by bright light at this moment.
The body of the purple dragon was like an extremely bright and dazzling star. Every time it stretched out, countless sparkling stars bloomed.
In an instant, the sky was filled with dazzling stars, shining brightly, as if daylight had suddenly arrived.
Xiao Ling stared at the strange scene in front of him, and for a moment he was slightly distracted, with a look of amazement on his face. He murmured to himself, "Is this the power of the Three Thousand Flames? The fire of the stars is truly extraordinary."
At the same time, in the vast sea of fire formed by the purple dragon's body, a petite and slender purple dragon shadow emerged lightly from it. It twisted its body and leaped towards Xiao Ling like a wisp of purple smoke.
Xiao Ling saw this scene and slowly raised his hands, and the purple dragon fell into his palm obediently. He stared at the flame in his hand, which represented the origin of the Three Thousand Flames of the Great Void, and took a deep breath to calm down the various thoughts in his mind.
Then, he raised his hands lightly, opened his mouth, and with a breath, the purple dragon turned into a beam of fire and was sucked into his body.
The origin of the Taixu Three Thousand Flames merged into his body, and a feeling of heat quietly spread in Xiao Ling's blood like a tide.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling immediately sat cross-legged and concentrated his mind. At this moment, the purple-black flames on his body surface were like tiny fountains, shooting out from every pore, forming a spectacular flame totem.
Having successfully obtained the origin fire of the Three Thousand Flames, Xiao Ling's next task is to refine it thoroughly and merge it with the original strange fire in his body.
He only needs to use the Burning Art technique and carefully refine the flame energy to improve his cultivation level and further elevate the grade of the Burning Art.
Although because the Three Thousand Flames were relatively cooperative, no other problems occurred when Xiao Ling just started to refine the Three Thousand Flames.
However, just as the Three Thousand Flames realized that its origin was gradually being refined by Xiao Ling, it immediately resisted and tried to resist.
This was obviously contrary to its original expectations. After all, once it lost its own power, its previous threats to Xiao Ling would become castles in the air and become a laughing stock.
However, Xiao Ling would naturally not give the Three Thousand Flames any chance to resist. Since the origin of the Three Thousand Flames had already entered his body, it could only submit to the fate of being refined.
Xiao Ling also didn't want to waste any more time on taming the Three Thousand Flames. At this moment, he did not hesitate to use the power of the ancestral stone in his body to suppress the resistance of the Three Thousand Flames. At the same time, he used all his strength to activate the Burning Art to thoroughly refine it.
Although Xiao Ling's actions may seem a bit selfish in the eyes of outsiders, if a person does not care about himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. If he does not think about himself, how can he gain a foothold in this world where the strong prey on the weak?
Since this matter will be of great benefit to Xiao Ling and can save him a lot of trouble, he will naturally do it without hesitation.
Moreover, Xiao Ling had no intention of erasing the intelligence of the Three Thousand Flames. He already had a plan in mind. When the time was right, he would lead the Three Thousand Flames to Ancient Dragon Island to fulfill its long-cherished wish, which could be regarded as the fulfillment of its previous promise.
Of course, under such fierce resistance from the Three Thousand Flames, Xiao Ling's process of refining it did seem a little slower.
However, thanks to the powerful suppression of the ancestral stone and the efficient refining of the Burning Technique, the speed of this process did not decrease significantly.
Although the Three Thousand Flames ranked high on the Strange Fire List, among the top ten, Xiao Ling's strength at this moment was also extraordinary, and the grade of the Burning Art had reached the Heavenly Rank.
Therefore, it would not take too much time for him to completely refine and subdue the origin fire of the Three Thousand Flames.
The purple sea of starlight floating in the star field space slowly burned around Xiao Ling, protecting him in the center.
And this originally empty space, under Xiao Ling's refinement, returned to a state of silence, with only the subtle sound of the flames continuing to burn, waiting for the storm to rise soon...
Chapter 485 External Response
Outside the star field, the space rippled slightly, and a space channel slowly opened. Then, more than a dozen figures led by Xiang Jinsong jumped out from the space channel.
On this side, the commotion caused by their appearance undoubtedly became the focus, instantly attracting many eyes. The three giants of Danta, sensing this unusual fluctuation, also rushed here without hesitation.
Xuan Kongzi's eyes swept over the crowd, and a trace of inquiry flashed in his eyes. Noticing that Xiao Ling was not among the returning crowd, his brows involuntarily frowned slightly, and an inexplicable guess suddenly surged in his heart.
However, he did not reveal his guess immediately, but quickly cast his eyes on Xiang Jinsong who was standing in the front, and asked with a serious tone,
"Elder Xiang, what kind of incident happened? You just stepped into the star field not long ago, how could you return so hastily? Moreover, I noticed that Xiao Ling did not appear with you, where is he now?"
Xiang Jinsong first bowed slightly to Xuan Kongzi and the other two and saluted. Then, a faint smile gradually appeared on his old face, and his tone revealed a relief that was hard to conceal.
"Haha, President Xuankong, please don't worry too much. The reason why we returned from the star field so quickly is because Xiao Ling successfully gained the recognition of the Three Thousand Flames when he came into contact with it. At this moment, Xiao Ling is refining the Three Thousand Flames deep in the star field. He is not in any danger. President Xuankong can rest assured."
As soon as Xiang Jinsong finished speaking, Xuan Kongzi and the other two felt a slight shock in their hearts at the same time.
Even Xuan Kongzi, who had some guesses in his mind before, couldn't help but show some surprise when he heard such a result.
There was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the three people. Obviously, Xiao Ling's ability to gain the recognition of Three Thousand Flames so quickly was beyond his expectations.
After a brief moment of shock, the three of them exchanged glances at the same time, with a hint of inquiry in each other's eyes.
Finally, it was Xuan Kongzi who broke the silence. With a hint of surprise in his voice, he asked:
"Elder Xiang, is what you just said true? Didn't Xiao Ling successfully subdue a strange fire? How could he gain the favor of the Three Thousand Flames again in such a short time and be able to subdue and refine it?"
As soon as Xuan Kongzi finished speaking, before Elder Xiang had time to respond, Cao Ying could not wait to step forward. After taking a few steps, her voice was clearly heard by everyone present:
"Master, according to Xiao Ling, he has mastered a unique secret method that allows him to subdue multiple types of strange fire at the same time. It is precisely because of this secret method that he can achieve multiple goals at once and subdue and refine different strange fires."
Cao Ying's explanation not only provided a reasonable explanation for Xiao Ling's ability, but also resolved the doubts in the hearts of the three giants of Danta.
"Xiao Ling's luck is indeed extraordinary as he has a special secret method to subdue multiple kinds of strange fire at the same time. This kind of skill is the first time even for this old man." Tian Lei Zi raised his eyebrows slightly, and said slowly with a bit of surprise in his tone.
“Even if such a special secret method is placed in front of you, you may not be able to control it. Strange fire is rare, and ordinary people will find it difficult to see its true appearance in their entire lives, let alone have the opportunity and strength to subdue multiple kinds of strange fire at the same time.” Xuan Yi laughed softly at the side and teased with a hint of joking tone.
"This special secret method is indeed tailor-made for Xiao Ling. People like us lack the same opportunity as him. Even if we are lucky enough to practice this method, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve any results."
Now that things have developed in the best direction, Xuan Kongzi's mood has obviously been affected. He said with a smile in his tone. "It seems that some things really can't be forced."
Although Xuan Kongzi had anticipated before that perhaps this time he could completely resolve the potential threat of the Three Thousand Flames, he knew deep down in his heart that it was only a tiny possibility.
However, to his surprise, this seemingly unattainable goal has now been perfectly solved. The ability demonstrated by Xiao Ling undoubtedly exceeded the initial expectations of all of them. He is truly a special person who can create miracles and amaze people.
At this moment, everyone was in a generally happy mood, except for the old man Qinghua, who seemed out of tune with the cheerful atmosphere around him.
After all, years of careful planning came to nothing in one day. No matter who it is, they will inevitably feel a little lost and it will be impossible to recover so quickly.
Being in such a bad mood, Old Man Qinghua did not plan to stay here for long. Since there was nothing else to do here, he did not want to participate in this joy that did not belong to him.
So, he bowed slightly with his fists clasped in the direction of Xuan Kongzi and the other two, said "goodbye" lightly, and then his figure turned into a stream of light and flew downwards.
His back, with a bit of loneliness and melancholy, gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.
"It seems that this time, old man Qinghua has worked in vain again. Back then, he was defeated by Yao Chen in the Meteorite Icefield. Now that the Three Thousand Flames have been obtained by Xiao Ling, he still returned empty-handed."
Xuan Kongzi watched the old man Qinghua walking away, smiled gently, and couldn't help but express such emotion.
"Strange Fires are spirits that choose their masters. I think this old man Qinghua probably lacks that fate." Xuan Yi frowned slightly, and his tone revealed a bit of frankness, even with a hint of indifference, "No matter how hard he tries to find it, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to get the favor of the strange fire."
After a short pause, Xuan Yi's eyes fell on the lonely back of the old man Qing Hua, and continued: "Moreover, judging from his current expression, he seems to have become disheartened. I think he probably won't have any extravagant hopes of taming the strange fire in the future."
After Xuan Yi finished speaking, Tian Lei Zi and Xuan Kong Zi looked at each other, and there was a wordless understanding in each other's eyes, so they did not continue this topic.
As alchemists, they knew the desire and persistence for the strange fire very well. They also deeply understood the ardent pursuit of the strange fire, but they also lacked the opportunity to form a bond with the strange fire.
Such thoughts lingered in their minds. When they recalled that Xiao Ling was able to subdue many kinds of strange fire at the same time, even Tian Leizi and Xuan Kongzi, who had cultivated their minds to be indifferent and calm, couldn't help but feel a little envious.
As old man Qinghua took the lead in embarking on his journey home, the others also greeted and said goodbye to Xuankongzi and the other two, and then left the place one after another.
In the end, only Cao Ying and Dan Chen were left here. They had no intention of leaving in a hurry, but chose to stay where they were.
"What's the matter, you two little girls? What are your plans for staying here?" Xuanyi raised her eyebrows slightly. As an experienced person, she could naturally see through the concerns in Cao Ying and Danchen's hearts at a glance.
She raised a faint smile and said in a teasing tone, "Are you secretly worried about the safety of Xiao Ling? I know exactly what you are thinking."
Upon hearing this, Cao Ying and Dan Chen's cheeks flushed slightly, and they exchanged guiltily glances with each other.
But Cao Ying still couldn't hide her worries. She looked at Xuan Kongzi and said earnestly, "Master, I... I'm still a little worried about Xiao Ling's safety."
"Don't worry, girl," Xuan Kongzi's eyes fell gently on Cao Ying's face and he smiled softly, "I will enter the star field later and investigate the situation myself. You don't have to worry about this matter anymore."
There was a hint of teasing in his eyes, and he looked at Cao Ying and Dan Chen. "Ying'er, I've never seen you plead for other men in this way in all these years. Alas, it seems that you two girls have really grown up, and your minds have flown away."
Xuan Kongzi chuckled twice and did not continue the topic. He nodded to Xuan Yi and Tian Leizi, then waved his hand gently, and a crack seemed to be torn in the air, and a space channel leading to the star field slowly opened in front of him.
Then, his figure swayed slightly, and he stepped into the passage without hesitation. In a flash, he disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only the space passage slowly closing with slight fluctuations.
At the same time, Cao Ying and Dan Chen, who stayed in place, could not stand Xuan Yi and Tian Lei Zi's half-smile and meaningful looks, so they did not stay here for too long. The two of them simultaneously activated their fighting spirit, and their figures turned into two streams of light, quickly flying downwards and disappearing into the buildings of Shengdan City in an instant.
"He is able to subdue many different kinds of strange fire at the same time, and now he has even taken the Three Thousand Flames, which ranks ninth on the Strange Fire List, into his possession. This Xiao Ling is truly hard to figure out.
"Tian Lei Zi looked far into the direction of the star field, gently stroking his gray beard, his tone full of emotion:
"The elders of Xiaodan Tower really have a unique vision this time. They took the initiative to invite Xiao Ling. It seems that they have long seen Xiao Ling's extraordinary potential. Such a move is undoubtedly a wise one..."
"Xiao Ling has successfully subdued the Three Thousand Flames this time, which will surely make those old guys pay more attention to him. When Xiao Ling finishes his retreat, it will be inevitable for him to come into contact with those elders."
Xuan Yi nodded slightly and analyzed in a calm tone: "It's just that those old guys don't have good tempers and are not easy to get along with. I just hope that nothing unpleasant will happen during Xiao Ling's contact with them..."
……
In the star field, in the vast and boundless void space, a streak of light suddenly flashed, like a falling meteor, and flew straight to the core of the star field.
A moment later, the streak of light that had been traversing the star field began to slow down, finally coming to a stop, hovering quietly in the void. As the light gradually faded, Xuan Kongzi's figure emerged clearly.
"Has the body of the Three Thousand Flames actually begun to disintegrate? It seems that Xiao Ling has already begun to refine the origin fire of the Three Thousand Flames. The progress is quite fast. I wonder what the situation is now..."
