Conditions Met

He wasn't afraid that Xiao Ming was lying to him. With his discerning eye, he could naturally tell that Xiao Ming was an Alchemist, and a high -Alchemy Level Alchemist at that.

"Of course." Xiao Ming nodded affirmatively.

"Young friend, please feel free to ask for anything. As long as it doesn't violate my principles, I will grant your request!"

How could a Dou Zun Expert who had dominated the continent be willing to perish under the dark and sunless magma? However, he also knew that Xiao Ming had done so much for him, and a single Heavenly Flames was definitely not enough to compensate him, so he immediately said very understandingly.

Before Xiao Ming could speak, Yao Tianhuo slapped his forehead and waved his hand. A snow-white Na Ring floated up from the white bones beside him and landed in his hand. With a flick of his finger, a pale white scroll appeared in front of him. On the scroll, some birds and beasts with flames all over their bodies were painted.

"This is my signature Dou Skill from back in the day, the 'Five Rounds of Fire Departure Method.' Heh, calling it Dou Skill isn't quite right; it should be called a fire control technique."

Venerable Tian Huo tossed the scroll to Xiao Ming, saying, "The Five Rounds of Fire Departure Method is a fire control method. The technique is divided into five levels, distinguished by the shapes of beasts: wolf, leopard, lion, tiger, and dragon. Each level has its own Fire Spirit. When the technique is perfected, the five beasts can gather together to form the Five Rounds of Fire Departure Formation, possessing immense power capable of scorching the seas and burning the heavens."

"If four of the five beasts are formed from Heavenly Flames, this technique's power is comparable to Heaven Rank Dou Technique! I see that you are very interested in Path of Fire Control this Dou Skill as my apology for what I just did."

"Heaven Rank Dou Technique?" Xiao Ming narrowed his eyes. So far, he had never obtained a Heaven Tier Dou Skill. He did have a set of Cultivation Method, but they were not compatible with his attributes.

He already possesses five Heavenly Flames; once he masters this Dou Skill, he will immediately have a Dou Skill that rivals those costing astronomical sums.

However, Xiao Ming's expression did not change much because of this Dou Skill.

Seeing that Xiao Ming's expression didn't change much, Yao Tianhuo felt that Xiao Ming was a bit difficult to deal with. But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that Xiao Ming must have an extraordinary background to have such strength at such a young age, and might not even care about his little things.

"However, this is for the best. It means that the greater the possibility that this person can revive me," Venerable Tian Huo thought to himself.

"Young friend, please feel free to ask if you have any further invitations."

"I don't have any special requests, I just hope that after you recover your strength, you can protect me." Xiao Ming pondered for a moment and then smiled slightly.

Upon hearing this, Yao Tian Huo paused for a moment, then quipped, "Young friend, you're quite cunning. You're determined to squeeze every last drop out of this old man!"

Xiao Ming's smile remained unchanged as he looked at Yao Tian Huo with a beaming smile, and said:

"Hehe, since you were able to be resurrected, this condition is definitely not a loss for you! Of course, since you feel you're at a disadvantage, then I'll take the loss myself. I have an Eighth Grade, two-colored Fu Ling Azure Pill. After consuming it, you can restore most of your strength. How about I give it to you then?"

"Haha, okay, it's a deal then!"

Venerable Tian Huo readily agreed. Xiao Ming was already Dou Zong, and so young. Even if he were to protect him, it wouldn't be for a lifetime. If he maintained this momentum, Xiao Ming might surpass him in cultivation just a few years after he recovered his physical body. So there was no reason to hesitate.

"Rest assured, senior, I always keep my word," Xiao Ming said confidently.

"Then I'll entrust this Nascent Heart Flame to you, young friend..." Yao Tian Huo raised his hand and the Fallen Heart Flame on his skeleton floated into his hand. He gave Xiao Ming a deep look, then tossed it away, and the Heart Flame floated towards Xiao Ming's location.

Carefully catching the Fallen Heart Flame, Xiao Ming could feel its fragility upon contact. Forcibly suppressing his joy, he quickly took out the Fire Gathering Pot from his Na Ring and gently placed it inside.

When Su Qian gave him the Fire Gathering Pot, Xiao Ming had asked for an extra one, just for this moment.

As the Fallen Heart Flame fell into the Fire Gathering Pot, a faint temperature rose gently. Xiao Ming could clearly feel an invisible fluctuation spreading out. Being extremely familiar with the Fallen Heart Flame, he naturally knew that this invisible fluctuation was exactly what the Heavenly Flame Refining Pagoda needed.

"However, if Xiao Yan cultivates the Flame Mantra, given his desire for Heavenly Flames, he will likely try to take advantage of this Heavenly Flames."

Xiao Ming frowned slightly. He naturally didn't want this Heavenly Flames to fall into Xiao Yan's hands. After all, if Jia Nan Academy lost this Heavenly Flames, the Heavenly Flame Refining Pagoda would be completely destroyed. At that time, he might have to be the one to charge it up.

Moreover, now that Han Feng has been captured, if Xiao Yan dares to steal the fire, he will definitely be taught a lesson by the Jia Nan Academy, which has six Dou Zong —oh no, including him and the Qianbai Two Elders, a total of nine Dou Zong.

Even if he doesn't make a move, and neither do the Qianbai Two Elders, Jia Nan Academy still has six Dou Zong.

With this lineup, even the most powerful Old Man Yao would get a severe beating.

Even if Xiao Yan manages to escape with the Heavenly Flames, he can't hide forever.

Xiao Yan is a member of the Xiao Family; where could he possibly run off to in the end?

In other words, in the Original Work, Xiao Yan's act of stealing fire was completely without considering whether it would involve the Xiao Family in Wu Tan City, nor did he think about his clansmen at the Jia Nan Academy.

It was only after Han Feng came to their door that Xiao Yan gained a heroic status, which is why Jia Nan Academy didn't pursue him for the Heavenly Flames. Otherwise... tsk tsk

"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. If Xiao Yan really comes to the academy, then I'll have the Great Elder keep a close eye on him," Xiao Ming thought to himself.

Seeing Xiao Ming put away the Heavenly Flames, grasp the snow-white Na Ring, and casually wave his hand, Venerable Tian Huo put away his own remains.

Then, with another light hand gesture, the Snow White Storage Ring in his hand automatically slipped onto Xiao Yan's finger, and his ethereal figure flashed in. A faint ripple spread from the Na Ring, and the light barrier in front of Xiao Ming slowly cracked.

"A great horror lurks within this lava; we'd better leave quickly!"

"Alright." Xiao Ming knew he was afraid of the Lizardmen. As soon as the light barrier cracked, Xiao Ming stepped forward, his figure transforming into a white shadow, and then shot out like lightning. At the same time, a faint spatial power spread out from the Snow White Storage Ring, freezing all the fluctuations of the surrounding magma.

"Splash!" The silent Magma Sea Surface was calm and still, with only the occasional soft sound of bubbles bursting.

The entire Lava World remained deathly silent. Suddenly, a sound of water breaking rang out, and then a figure enveloped in Formless Flame flashed out from the magma, finally hovering in mid-air.

"They're finally out!"
