Three Sentences That Made the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Question Its Existence
Inside the vast Heavenly Tomb, Xiao Yan was attempting to synthesize the Dragon Phoenix Bloodline.
At this time, Xiao Yan was already a Two-Star Dou Saint Late Stage. He was preparing to deal with the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, so he decided to first improve his physical strength.
At the Space Auction, Xiao Yan managed to snag two eggs containing the Heavenly Phoenix Essence Blood and a piece of Heavenly Phoenix Bone, thanks to Zi Yan's perception.
The Heavenly Phoenix Bone contains the Heavenly Phoenix Inheritance, a unique skill specifically designed to counter the Ancient Void Dragon of the Void, the Heavenly Phoenix Shocking World Soul.
As is well known, the Ancient Void Dragon of the Void possesses extremely high Space Talent, allowing it to traverse the void entirely with its physical body. The Heavenly Phoenix Shocking World Soul is a soul phantom constructed by the Heavenly Phoenix Clan using its Bloodline Power to suppress a space, within which no Space Power can be mobilized without permission.
Zi Yan smashed the bone on the spot, and then angrily learned the inheritance.
Xiao Yan then used Emperor Flame to refine the lifeless Heavenly Phoenix Egg, and then extracted several drops of Heavenly Phoenix Essence Blood.
The energy contained in this Essence Blood is negligible, and it has excellent growth potential. The only drawback is that Xiao Yan cannot make perfect use of it.
The antagonism between the Ancient Void Dragon and the Heavenly Phoenix is an instinct etched into their bloodlines. The Dragon Phoenix evolved by consuming the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit, and their bloodlines cannot even be passed down.
Having already possessed the pure Ancient Void Dragon Bloodline, Xiao Yan instinctively rejected the Heavenly Phoenix Essence Blood. It was fine to eat it as a snack, but if he tried to integrate it into his bloodline, he would suffer a backlash at best, and die from the explosion at worst.
However, Xiao Yan still had one last Green Fate Fruit. He borrowed some Dragon Phoenix Refined Blood from Zi Yan, cultivated the Green Fate Fruit into Dragon Phoenix Fate Fruit, and after consuming and refining it, Xiao Yan could be said to have obtained a trace of the Dragon Phoenix Bloodline seed.
With the bloodline seed in hand, things became much easier. Xiao Yan used the Ancient Void Dragon Bloodline and the Heavenly Phoenix Essence Blood as nourishment to infuse this Dragon Phoenix Bloodline. At the same time, he used the Emperor Flame to connect with the Dou Di Bloodline of the Xiao Clan. Under Xiao Xuan's guidance, he continuously tempered himself and underwent deep evolution.
This naturally requires a long period of arduous training. Even with the Heavenly Tomb's six-fold speed, Xiao Yan still couldn't possibly devote too much energy to this aspect.
Therefore, Xiao Yan continued to use his cheat codes, consuming the Nether Flame Demon Saint Essence Blood to accelerate his growth.
Before her death, the Nether Flame Demon Saint was Half-Emperor expert. Her bloodline had undergone some changes and was no less powerful than that of Dou Di Bloodline.
Furthermore, the Nether Flame Demon Saint had also devoured and refined several Heavenly Flames, among which the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame had a particularly karmic connection with it. This Essence Blood could also increase Xiao Yan's affinity with the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame in advance.
By the time all his Essence Blood was used up, Xiao Yan had already broken through to the Three-Star Dou Saint Middle Stage. This was only after Xiao Yan continuously compressed his Soul Power at the Emperor Realm Soul level; otherwise, becoming Four-star Dou Sheng would not have been impossible.
"In just five years, you've broken through from Half-Saint to Three-star Dou Sheng. I'm afraid it won't take you more than a few decades to break through to the Peak Dou Saint. By then, no one will be able to compete with you for the inheritance of the Tou She Ancient God."
There was a hint of relief and a sense of liberation in Xiao Xuan's tone.
Seeing Xiao Xuan's lifeless appearance, Xiao Yan had an idea and said, "Teacher, I have some vague perception of the space where the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame is sealed. It seems that a Dou Sheng of the Xiao Clan is trapped in the Nightmare Heavenly Mist there. I wonder if we can rescue him."
Xiao Xuan paused, a look of reminiscence flashing in his eyes. Then, as if remembering something, he said with some joy, "I have a cousin named Xiao Chen. Later, he disappeared without a trace. No matter how the Xiao Clan searched, they could not find him."
"Moreover, I remember that shortly after he disappeared, news of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame spread."
"Then why don't you send a projection of yourself to come with me and rescue Uncle Xiao Chen?" Xiao Yan immediately suggested.
Xiao Xuan smiled, his voice gaining a touch of energy. "Okay!"
The Purifying Lotus Demon Flame was sealed in the Demon Flame Space by the Nether Flame Demon Saint, and even the Hun Tiandi and Gu Yuan were unable to open a spatial passage.
However, Xiao Yan was different. Relying on his control over space through the Dragon Phoenix Bloodline and the Nether Flame Demon Saint's Inheritance, he made a small opening in the void into the Demon Flame Space and slipped inside in a flash.
The Demon Flame Space opens once every thousand years. The last time it opened, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame was slightly injured, but after this thousand-year recuperation, not only has its injury healed, but its strength has even surpassed that of the Demon Flame.
Actually, there is another important reason: the Heaven Refining Ancient Array exists in the Demon Flame Space. The Heaven Array and Earth Array continuously draw Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Power, preventing it from becoming stronger.
However, after ten thousand years, the Heaven Refining Ancient Array had reached its limit and was unable to draw more power, thus allowing the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame to continue its normal cultivation.
Over the past thousand years, the cultivation of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame has been rising steadily, breaking through to the level of Six-star Dou Sheng. It has even mastered the Nightmare Heavenly Mist and the Heaven Refining Ancient Array, making it a force that even Seven Star Dou Sheng might not be able to defeat.
If the Fragmented Map are collected and the Soul Imprint of the Nether Flame Demon Saint is awakened, the Nether Flame Demon Saint will use the power accumulated by the Heaven Refining Ancient Array to erase the Nether Flame Demon's Intelligence, making it resemble the form it was just formed in the world.
However, this would also squander all the power accumulated by the Heaven Refining Ancient Array, and the energy cultivated by the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame itself would also be wasted.
Xiao Yan naturally wouldn't be so extravagant, so he tried every means to bring along the ball of flame that Xiao Xuan's projection had transformed into.
Calmly walked through the Nightmare Heavenly Mist, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame replicated all the powerful beings it had sensed in the past into the Illusion Realm, placing them in various halls according to their strength with a rather wicked sense of humor.
Those who enter the Demon Flame Space will be instantly enveloped by Nightmare Heavenly Mist, then fall into the Illusion Realm, pass through one grand hall after another, and finally fight against the figure transformed by the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.
However, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame had witnessed the power of the Nether Flame Demon Saint, and was naturally invincible in the Illusion Realm. Once one fell into the Illusion Realm, one would be controlled by the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame and become its Flame Slave.
But Xiao Yan simply flashed through one grand hall after another, arriving directly in front of a handsome man dressed in white robes.
"I'm quite surprised that the Nether Flame Demon Saint still has the power to leave behind a legacy." The handsome man smiled, feeling very pleased that the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame could use the Nether Flame Demon Saint's ultimate technique to kill his successor.
"He even had the power to erase your consciousness, but he just treated you like a good son and didn't do it," Xiao Yan replied indifferently.
The Purifying Lotus Demon Flame's face instantly turned icy cold; even though this was Illusion Realm, he couldn't laugh anymore.
But Xiao Yan didn't stop there. He continued, "Your Illusion Realm is quite interesting. Your real body is barely at the level of Six-star Dou Sheng, but in the Illusion Realm you can actually show the level of Peak of Nine-Star Dou Sheng."
His tone was flat and devoid of any emotion, yet fear welled up uncontrollably from the depths of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame's heart.
The space opened up by the Nether Flame Demon Saint is unbreakable unless one becomes Dou Emperor. At first, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame only thought that Xiao Yan was a lucky person who had obtained the Nether Flame Demon Saint's inheritance, and subconsciously ignored a certain possibility.
However, no matter how hard the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame tried, it could only sense that this person's strength was only Three-star Dou Sheng, but it also faintly sensed a suppression from the origin level, and even wanted to submit to him.
That's the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame! The Purifying Lotus Demon Flame ranked third on the Heavenly Flame Ranking! Even the Nihility Devouring Flame couldn't make it submit directly!
"Thousands of years have passed in the outside world, so it's normal that you don't recognize me. Let me introduce myself. You can call me Flame Emperor ..."
As soon as the words fell, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame immediately sensed a terrifying aura that seemed to make heaven and earth submit, slowly awakening in the person in front of it. Even if the Nether Flame Demon Saint came back to life, he could only barely withstand one or two moves in the face of this aura!
