Repairing the Ruins' Breach!

"Sister Xian'er, it worked..."

Seeing this, the Void Beast could not help waving her tiny arms and wiping away the sweat that had appeared on her face from anxiety.

Just then, Xiao Yi Xian, who was seated cross-legged at the bottom of the swamp, abruptly opened her eyes and raised a hand, drawing the gray stone floating before her into her body.

Soon after, a layer of deep Purple Flame surged from Xiao Yi Xian's body, tightly wrapping her entire figure like a cocoon of purple fire.

After the purple flame cocoon appeared, the surrounding temperature grew increasingly terrifying, causing the poisonous black water in the area to evaporate faster and faster.

Even the Void Beast had to treat that terrifying heat with utmost seriousness.

Under the Void Beast's watchful gaze, waves of energy ripples suddenly began rapidly appearing across the surface of the previously still purple flame cocoon. Immediately afterward, a powerful aura suddenly spread from within it.

Sensing that aura, the smile on the Void Beast's face deepened. "Wonderful! Sister Xian'er's strength has broken through again."

After saying that, the Void Beast happily waited nearby. As the energy ripples on the purple flame cocoon fluctuated with increasing intensity, faint cracks suddenly appeared across it. The cracks slowly spread until they covered the entire cocoon.

It looked as though a butterfly were about to emerge from its cocoon.

Crack!

A crisp sound quietly echoed at the bottom of the swamp. A crack on the purple cocoon suddenly split completely open, and a terrifyingly scorching energy shot from the fissure, instantly creating a straight vacuum zone in the poisonous black water at the swamp's bottom.

Once that crack appeared, the purple flame cocoon suddenly began trembling violently. The trembling continued for a while before, at a certain moment, the purple flame cocoon exploded with a bang.

As the deafening explosion rang out, a terrifying crater nearly a hundred meters wide and fifty meters deep appeared at the bottom of the swamp where Xiao Yi Xian had been sitting. Mud scattered in every direction, turning the swamp water murky, while a wave hundreds of meters high was blasted directly into the air above the swamp.

The Void Beast stood less than ten meters from the cocoon. After it exploded, the terrifying explosive energy turned into wisps of purple smoke out of thin air once it came within half a foot of her, causing her no harm whatsoever.

The explosion lasted for quite some time before gradually dissipating completely.

As the explosion ended, at its center, a graceful naked figure sat cross-legged, floating above the enormous crater. Her lightly closed eyelids trembled slightly, then slowly opened after a moment.

Faint Purple Flame curled within her ink-black eyes. After a while, it suddenly surged forth and covered her entire pupils. For a time, Xiao Yi Xian's pupils turned purple, giving her an oddly enchanting air.

The Purple Flame in her eyes did not last long before gradually fading. Once it had completely receded, her eyes returned to black. However, they now seemed far brighter than before. Clearly, after being tempered by the Heavenly Flames, Xiao Yi Xian's eyes had gained some hidden benefits.

After opening her eyes, Xiao Yi Xian gently twisted her neck, producing a smooth series of crackling sounds from her bones. She then lowered her head to look at herself, and her face instantly flushed with embarrassment. She hurriedly took a set of white robes from her Storage Ring and put them on.

"Pfft!"

Seeing Xiao Yi Xian's reaction, the Void Beast could not help laughing.

"Sister Xian'er, are you embarrassed?" the Void Beast laughed. "I saw everything just now. Your skin is even fairer than before!"

Upon hearing the Void Beast's words, the blush that had faded from Xiao Yi Xian's face after she got dressed returned once more.

"There's no one else here. So what if you saw? It's nothing. Your sister isn't embarrassed," Xiao Yi Xian said, pretending to remain calm in the face of the Void Beast's teasing.

Afterward, Xiao Yi Xian carefully sensed the state of her body. She discovered that her cultivation had actually reached the peak of the three-star Dou Emperor level.

Under normal circumstances, devouring and refining a Heavenly Flame only increased one's combat strength; it did not raise the devourer's level.

Cases like Xiao Yi Xian's, where one devoured a Heavenly Flame and broke through several realms in succession, were exceedingly rare.

The reason Xiao Yi Xian had been able to break through while devouring the Heavenly Flame was that her Calamity Poison Body had absorbed an enormous amount of poison from the Netherworld Poison Fire, allowing her strength to soar.

With Xiao Yi Xian's current combat strength, even if Liu Rulong, the Myriad Poison Sect's sect master from earlier, had not died, he likely would not have been her match.

Now that she knew her strength had surged, Xiao Yi Xian was delighted for quite a while before turning to the Void Beast. "Little Void, Master said earlier that we should repair that breach. Unfortunately, the projection's time ran out just after Master finished speaking. I wonder if anyone else has entered through that breach!"

"I don't know whether anyone else came in either. How about we go take a look now? I can repair that kind of spatial rift too!" Hearing Xiao Yi Xian's words, the Void Beast first shook her head, then revealed a rather smug expression.

"You can repair that breach?"

Xiao Yi Xian was initially greatly shocked upon hearing the Void Beast's words. However, when she recalled how the Void Beast had instantly sent her to the bottom of the swamp when they first encountered the Netherworld Poison Fire, as well as how she had passed through the Heavenly Calamity Poison Saint's spatial seal, she suddenly understood.

"Then I'll leave it to you!"

Xiao Yi Xian chuckled softly. Immediately afterward, a pair of purple wings suddenly emerged from her back. These purple wings looked completely different from the Dou Qi wings she had formed when she broke through to Dou Wang; they resembled a butterfly dancing gracefully in the air.

Seeing the purple flame wings on Xiao Yi Xian's back, a gleam flashed through the Void Beast's large eyes. She could not help saying, "Sister Xian'er, the wings on your back are so beautiful!"

"Really? If you like them, I'll let you try them too!" Seeing the Void Beast's reaction, Xiao Yi Xian smiled faintly. With a thought, a streak of Purple Flame shot from her palm and flashed behind the Void Beast, swiftly transforming into a pair of purple flame wings.

"Ha ha, they're so pretty!"

Catching sight of the crystalline purple flame wings on her back, the Void Beast happily began spinning in circles.
