Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method
Heavenly Flame Venerable inwardly condemned the cheater, but in his current situation, he desperately needed the cheater's help. So, he could only point to the nascent, invisible flame and ask, "Are you interested in this Fallen Heart Flame?"
Xiao Yan glanced at it and said softly, "My teacher has a Secret Technique that can use Seventh Grade Pill, the Bone-Growing Blood-Melting Pill, the Monster Beast Essence Blood, and the bones of powerful individuals, along with three kinds of Heavenly Flames, to revive Residual Soul."
After saying that, Xiao Yan summoned a ball of Sea Lotus Heart Flame, splitting it into three different Heavenly Flames in front of Heavenly Flame Venerable, and asked, "Do you want to be resurrected?"
"..." Heavenly Flame Venerable was silent for a moment. He suddenly realized that Xiao Yan was coming for him.
"You seem to know a lot of things," Heavenly Flame Venerable said, staring at Xiao Yan.
"This Fallen Heart Flame has already developed sentience. When I erased its sentience, I saw some of its memories." Xiao Yan immediately brought out the excuse he had used to fool the Thousand Hundred Elders.
"I see." Heavenly Flame Venerable nodded, seemingly agreeing with this explanation.
"So, you've come here to see if I, the Dou Zun, am dead or not, right? If I'm dead, you can take my inheritance; if I'm alive, you can help me out and make me owe you a huge favor."
After saying that, Heavenly Flame Venerable didn't hesitate and took a snow-white Storage Ring from the skeleton, tossing it to Xiao Yan and saying, "All my assets are here, plus this Fallen Heart Flame. That's all the bargaining chips I can offer."
Upon receiving the Storage Ring, Xiao Yan was astonished to discover that it was a high-grade Storage Ring. Xiao Yan then left his Soul Imprint on it and wore it on his hand, placing it next to Han Feng's Storage Ring.
Xiao Yan rummaged through the Storage Ring and found only some scrolls and miscellaneous items, without any Pills or rare treasures. Presumably, they had all been used by Heavenly Flame Venerable to prolong his life over the long years.
Xiao Yan found the scroll containing the Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method, took it out, opened it, and saw that it clearly stated:
"The Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method is a fire control method. The technique is divided into five levels, distinguished by the shape of the beasts: wolf, leopard, lion, tiger, and dragon. Each level has its own Fire Spirit. When the technique is mastered, the five beasts gather together to form the Five Wheel Leaving Fire Array, which has the immense power to scorch the sea and burn the sky."
"If four of the five beasts are formed from Heavenly Flames, this technique will be as powerful as a Heavenly Tier Dou Technique!"
After reading this impressive introduction, Xiao Yan asked thoughtfully, "Did you create this Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method yourself, or did you find a lineage to inherit it?"
When the mention of his signature technique, Heavenly Flame Venerable paused, then proudly declared, "This is something I obtained after exploring the ruins after breaking through to the Dou Zun. Back then, I mastered it to perfection, which is why people respectfully call me Heavenly Flame Venerable."
"Do you remember where that ruin is?" Xiao Yan then asked.
Heavenly Flame Venerable pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "That ruin was originally a Small Space. After it was discovered, it attracted many powerful people to explore it. After so long, that Small Space has probably been shattered."
"What? Is there a problem with this Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method? Why are you taking it so seriously?"
Xiao Yan smiled and said, "There's a small problem with the introduction to the Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method."
"The Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method is divided into five levels, each with a Fire Spirit. If the four Fire Spirit are condensed from Heavenly Flames, the power is comparable to Heavenly Tier Dou Technique."
"Such a precise evaluation is as if the founder once used these Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method to test them one by one, comparing them with Heavenly Tier Dou Technique."
"Moreover, as far as I know, the senior was severely injured when he refined the second Fallen Heart Flame. If the Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method requires four different kinds of Heavenly Flames to condense four Fire Spirit, then the creator at least had a way to balance the four different kinds of Heavenly Flames."
"Of course, it's also possible that the founder was exaggerating, or that the founder had a few friends who joined forces to condense the Fire Spirit, etc."
After a moment of thought, Heavenly Flame Venerable said, "Back then, I used five kinds of Magical Beast Flame that resembled the form of Fire Spirit to condense five kinds of Fire Spirit. Their power was indeed stronger than ordinary Earth-tier High-grade Dou Technique, but it was still far from Heavenly Tier Dou Technique."
"As for the various kinds of Heavenly Flames, I perished before I even had a chance to try them out."
"However, in my personal opinion, perhaps the Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method is actually a Formation that can be cast by five people working together."
"And perhaps some Ancient Race could actually gather four people who possess Heavenly Flames?"
Xiao Yan thought of the Yan Clan, but then he thought that they already had Heavenly Tier Dou Technique, so why go to so much trouble to create one comparable to the Heavenly Tier?
Perhaps, this Five Wheel Leaving Fire Method was actually created by an Alchemist? Besides combat, alchemy also requires extremely high Fire Energy, and the fire control techniques used in alchemy are far more numerous than those used in combat.
Suppressing his distracting thoughts, Xiao Yan said, "I'll take you out, but please use your Space Power to conceal my presence and prevent those Flame Lizardmen from discovering me—as far as I know, there are beings among them comparable to Half-Saint."
Upon hearing this, Heavenly Flame Venerable was startled. He had vaguely sensed something extremely terrifying deep within the magma back then, but he never expected that the Flame Lizardmen race had a powerhouse comparable to Half-Saint.
Xiao Yan did not intend to continue explaining. Instead, he stepped forward, collected the remains of the Heavenly Flame Venerable, and then took out a Jade Slip.
This Jade Slip was originally intended for creating Soul Communication. After special treatment, it can preserve and even nurture Soul Power. It is now perfect for providing a place for Heavenly Flame Venerable.
As for the Fallen Heart Flame, Xiao Yan suppressed it with the Sea Lotus Heart Flame, then stuffed it into the Myriad Beast Cauldron and held it in his hands.
"I will do my best to use Space Power to conceal the magma fluctuations for you. You should hurry, as I can't maintain this state for long," Heavenly Flame Venerable said after Xiao Yan finished tidying up.
Seeing Xiao Yan nod, Heavenly Flame Venerable flashed and disappeared into the Jade Slip prepared by Xiao Yan.
A faint ripple emanated from the Jade Slip, sweeping across the light shield and causing it to slowly crack.
As soon as the light shield cracked, Xiao Yan's Crystal Wings shook, and then his Dou Qi Wings overlapped with the Crystal Wings. The Sea Lotus Heart Flame ignited around his body. Following the Soul Imprint on the Heavy Black Ruler to confirm the direction, his figure transformed into a blue shadow and shot out like lightning.
At the same time, a faint Space Power emanated from the Jade Slip, solidifying all the fluctuations of the surrounding magma and isolating the Flame Lizardmen from its senses.
The speed of the overlapping wings was terrifying. If it weren't for the Sea Lotus Heart Flame protecting Xiao Yan 'Xiao Yan body, the oncoming magma would probably have injured him.
With the help of Heavenly Flame Venerable to conceal the fluctuations, Xiao Yan charged recklessly and broke out of the magma in just ten minutes.
A phantom figure in white robes floated out from the Jade Slip. Looking at the surrounding scenery, Heavenly Flame Venerable sighed, "Finally, I can see the world beyond the magma again. How I've missed it..."
After sighing for a moment, Heavenly Flame Venerable turned his gaze to Xiao Yan and said solemnly, "Xiao Yan, my soul is extremely weak right now. I entrust the task of repairing my soul to you. I don't have much time left, so you need to hurry."
"Then let's take a Sixth Grade Pill to tide us over," Xiao Yan said, taking out a Soul Recovery Pill.
