Dou Emperor

Xiao Yan had accumulated his knowledge over tens of thousands of years.

It's not that we can't wait any longer. Xiao Yan has refined the Life Spirit Flame and tempered his body with the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame, so living for tens of thousands of years shouldn't be a problem.

The main reason was that too much had accumulated, and Xiao Yan was worried that if he waited any longer, he would lose control.

The Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, the Three Thousand Burning Flame, the Nine Dragon Thunder Gang Fire, the Fallen Heart Flame, and the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame have all reached the peak of the Peak of Nine-Star Dou Sheng, and they also have several Dou Sheng -level Sub-flame.

The Life Spirit Flame, the Green Lotus Core Flame, and the Sea Heart Flame were also cultivated to the level of Dou Sheng.

The spiritual energy accumulated in the Heavenly Tomb has piled up into a vast ocean.

The Pill Beast were already running around in groups in the Small Space that Xiao Yan had created, including 976 sealed Ninth-grade Treasure Pill, 92 ninth -Ninth Grade Profound Pill, and 7 Ninth Grade Golden Pill.

"If this isn't enough to break through to the Dou Emperor, I'll... double it next time."

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yan opened the Heavenly Tomb and poured all the spiritual energy within into his body.

The boundless spirituality caused Xiao Yan's Soul Power to surge, and his physical body could not keep up with the level of his soul, thus becoming a factor that limited his soul.

"It can't withstand so much spiritual energy, and it probably can't withstand so much Heavenly Flames either..."

"Enough! Let's abandon this physical body and condense Exotic Flame Body! All for breaking through to the Dou Emperor!"

As thoughts raced, Xiao Yan suddenly exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist. Then, the endless flames that had spread throughout the entire Dou Qi Continent slowly broke through space and arrived at this place under the summons of Xiao Yan's soul. They continued to condense and finally transformed into a giant with a height of ten thousand feet.

Xiao Yan tore open the Small Space where the Pills were stored, opened his mouth and swallowed. In an instant, all the Pills turned into energy and went down into his stomach. The accumulation of ten thousand years at this moment all erupted in Xiao Yan's body.

Xiao Yan felt the world was shattering. The sky, the earth, the mountains, the rivers... everything was breaking apart, turning into illusory white mist, and then slowly dissipating.

As his jumbled memories returned, the dreamlike experience left Xiao Yan somewhat bewildered, but his eyes remained bright and full of hope.

The Nether Flame Demon Saint remained silent, staring at him for a long time before suddenly asking, "What is your name?"

"Xiao Yan".

"Xiao Yan... I'll remember that." The Nether Flame Demon Saint nodded, seemingly wanting to ask something more, but ultimately said nothing.

"Senior, I choose the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame," Xiao Yan said softly.

"I don't recommend you choose the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame. Back then, I fought against the Old Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan to a draw. Later, I used some of my research on the Tou She Ancient God to exchange for some of his Essence Blood and integrated it into the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame."

"Although the power of the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame almost dissipated after my death, the core power of the Primordial Ancient Void Dragon Emperor was preserved."

"Although you also possess a trace of the pure bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon, you have not reached the level of the Dragon Emperor. Therefore, you will be suppressed by the power of the Dragon Emperor within the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame, and in the end, you will be devoured by the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame."

The Nether Flame Demon Saint's tone was quite amiable, like that of a patient and persuasive elder, a stark contrast to his previous indifferent attitude.

"I know the Old Dragon Emperor's daughter, and we have a pretty good relationship. I should be able to get some of her Essence Blood. Is that all I can do to refine the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame?" Xiao Yan asked.

"..." The Nether Flame Demon Saint was somewhat speechless. You have such a wide Human Vein, kid?

"How about this, I'll seal this Myriad Beast Spirit Flame in your chest first, and you can ask the Old Dragon Emperor's daughter for some Essence Blood, and then continuously work with this Myriad Beast Spirit Flame," said the Nether Flame Demon Saint for a moment.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, senior."

"It's alright, you'll be the one who feels uncomfortable later."

"?"

Xiao Yan looked puzzled, but the Nether Flame Demon Saint didn't explain. He simply opened the wooden box containing the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame, grabbed the Dragon Shape flame, and then placed a drop of milky white liquid on Dragon Shape flame.

Perhaps because the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame had been refined by the Nether Flame Demon Saint, it did not resist at this moment, but allowed the Nether Flame Demon Saint to do as he pleased, until the drop of milky white liquid turned into a white lotus flower, sealing it inside.

With a wave of his hand, the Nether Flame Demon Saint caused the white lotus to slowly drift down onto Xiao Yan's chest, eventually transforming into a lotus-shaped mark.

Xiao Yan reached out and touched the lotus mark, feeling nothing special. Then, he carefully infused a Dou Qi into it, and the lotus bloomed, spitting out a wisp of purple-gold Dragon Shape flame.

However, even a mere trace of it brought immense pressure to Xiao Yan, making it unbearable for Xiao Yan, and he almost submitted to it.

Xiao Yan only breathed a sigh of relief after the flame dissipated.

"What you studied in the Illusion Realm can be used directly when your cultivation level is high enough—except for the Heavenly Tomb, which I haven't been to and don't know its true nature."

The voice of the Nether Flame Demon Saint reached Xiao Yan's ears, calming his pounding heart.

"Nightmare Heavenly Mist has this ability?" Xiao Yan was immediately surprised after realizing what was happening.

"Of course not. It was only by consuming my remaining Essence Blood that you in the Illusion Realm were able to reach some of my level back then."

The Nether Flame Demon Saint paused for a moment, then continued, "Originally, you could have taken away a clump of Essence Blood, but it was used up to maintain the Illusion Realm, leaving only a dozen drops. Just now, one drop was used to seal the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame."

Xiao Yan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, senior, I will break through to the Dou Emperor with your share!"

"You little brat!"

The Nether Flame Demon Saint smiled and shook his head, but did not refute. Instead, he said, "When you leave, take the door lock with you. Just hang that lock on any door, open it with the key, and you can come here directly."

"If you have any questions about cultivation in the future, feel free to ask me. Keep the Essence Blood and the Spirit Transformation Emperor Soul Fruit here for now! Just come and get them when you need them."

"Also, I don't know who was so foolish as to divide that map into four parts, making it extremely difficult to collect them all. But you've already collected three parts, so try your best to collect the last one as well."

"It doesn't matter if you can't gather them all. Among them are remnants of my soul, used to manipulate the Heaven Refining Ancient Array to suppress the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame. With your mastery of the Heaven Refining Ancient Array, as long as you break through to the Dou Sheng, suppressing the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame will be no problem at all."

"However... then you can see how the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame behaves. If he has reformed, then spare his life; if he remains violent... then erase his mind!"

The Nether Flame Demon Saint spoke at length, Xiao Yan listened quietly until he finished speaking before saying, "Senior, I already have a teacher. If I want to become your disciple, I think it would be better to ask my teacher's opinion first."

"I don't care about these things." The Nether Flame Demon Saint waved his hand. "Let's go and deal with the matter of the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame as soon as possible."

After Xiao Yan left the room, the Nether Flame Demon Saint sighed again and said leisurely, "Xiao Yan... you might, no, you definitely can break through to the Dou Emperor!"
