The Final Fragment Map

Many powerful individuals entered different Spatial Wormhole.

As he watched these people gradually disappear, until only he and Xiao Ming remained, Xuan Kongzi noticed that Xiao Ming was staring at a Spatial Wormhole.

He smiled and asked Xiao Ming, "Your hometown is in the Northwest Continent. You've been looking at it all this time, why don't you go back and see your family and friends now? It won't take you long anyway."

Xiao Ming shook his head, withdrawing his gaze from the Spatial Wormhole leading to the Northwest Continent.

"Going back now won't do anything. I've already made arrangements with the teachers and family; they'll be aware of what needs to be done."

Among those who went to the Northwest Continent just now was Venerable Tian Huo. Although Venerable Tian Huo's aptitude was not high, thanks to Xiao Ming's supply of pills, he has now reached the Dou Zun Eight Stars, and it won't be long before he reaches the Dou Zun Nine Star.

He also brought back a puppet of the Half-Saint level that Xiao Ming had crafted in his spare time, as well as a specially made Spatial Jade Slip.

With Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin returning to the Northwest Continent, who can pose a threat to the Xiao Family and Jia Nan Academy, unless the Hall of Souls dispatches a Dou Saint Level expert?

However, even among the Soul Clan, Dou Sheng are not as common as they seem. The Hall of Souls is merely a subordinate force of the Soul Clan, and Dou Sheng are not to be trifled with at will.

It wasn't that Xiao Ming didn't want to go back and see his teacher, Elder Huo, and Medusa, but he needed to go to the Nine Serene Deepground Python Tribe next. Since so much time had already passed, it wouldn't matter if he went back a little later.

If they encounter a problem they can't solve, Venerable Tian Huo can shatter the Spatial Jade Slip, and Xiao Ming can return. 69🅂🄷🅄🅇.🄲🄾🄼

Seeing that Xiao Ming was unharmed, Xuan Kongzi didn't say anything more about the matter. He changed the subject and said...

"In that case, very well. I happen to have some news to tell you: we've made progress on what you asked us to investigate."

Xiao Ming first looked puzzled, then, remembering what had happened before, he said with some surprise.

"Is there really any progress on the matter of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Fragment Map?"

Xiao Ming has already obtained three copies of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Fragment Map.

There's only one last one left, and that last one is definitely in the hands of some powerful figure in Central Plains.

Xiao Ming had previously investigated through the Pill Tower's channels.

After Xiao Ming became the Heavenly Court Alliance Leader, he also spoke with Xuan Kongzi, saying that he wanted to find the Fragment Map of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.

After all this time, there's finally some news!

"Yes, that Fragment Map is in the hands of a Dou Zun who Secluded Cultivation. After hearing that we were looking for the Fragment Map, he took the initiative to contact us."

"However, I really don't understand what you need this Purifying Lotus Demon Flame for. Not to mention that every time this Demonic Flame Space descends, it's earth-shattering and known to everyone. Even if that map has miraculous effects, the map that person has is incomplete. The Dou Qi Continent is vast and boundless; it's not easy to collect the rest of the maps. Perhaps some of the maps have already been destroyed." Xuan Kongzi's wrinkled face was full of doubt.

Xiao Ming simply smiled at this. It was normal for Xuan Kongzi to have doubts, but he was too lazy to explain further.

"That map is very useful to me. Where is that person now?"

Well, it's not really that useful. There are still many years before the Demonic Flame Space arrives, and according to Xiao Ming's plan, he will definitely be stronger by then.

Even without a map, by then, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame would be nothing more than a dish in his hands, at most a waste of his effort.

However, since we've searched for so long, let's just take it if we can.

"That Dou Zun will come to our Holy Pill City in a few days," Xuan Kongzi replied.

"In that case, let's wait."

The following days were undoubtedly much more leisurely, and he spent his days in Holy Pill City.

Occasionally, when he has free time, he will appear to give guidance to his unofficial disciple Ye Xinlan, and sometimes he will also give guidance to other disciples.

With Xiao Ming's current strength and reputation, he is more than capable of guiding not only these ordinary disciples, but also the elders.

Speaking of guidance, the Ye Family, one of the Pill Tower's Five Great Families, has been developing very smoothly in recent years. This is entirely due to the guidance that Ye Xinlan often receives from the Ye Family, although Xiao Ming has not taken her as a disciple.

However, in the eyes of many, Ye Xinlan is Xiao Ming's unofficial disciple.

The Ye Family's status naturally rose, attracting envy, jealousy, and hatred from many other families.

When Xiao Ming learned of this, he simply smiled faintly and didn't offer any explanation. Firstly, there was no need; secondly, Ye Xinlan had a rather innocent personality, which he quite liked, and although he hadn't taken her as his disciple, there was still a certain master-disciple bond between them; and thirdly, the Ye Family acted with discretion, and as long as they didn't use his name to do anything wrong, he didn't bother to say anything.

During this wait, Xiao Ming soon met the Dou Zun and obtained the last fragment of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame Fragment Map from him using an Eighth-Tier Nine-Colored Pill.

Inside the house, Xiao Ming waved his hand, and the space around him subtly distorted.

Then, with a Na Ring of his finger, fragments of Ancient Map floated out and finally hovered in front of him.

Looking at these scattered, seemingly ancient Ancient Map, Xiao Ming suddenly thought of Xiao Chen, who was left in the Demonic Flame Space within the Xiao Clan.

"Because there's no Ancient Map, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame has controlled countless powerful figures. We also don't know who was responsible for splitting the Ancient Map. Could it have been the Purifying Demonic Saint himself? That doesn't make sense."

After muttering something to himself, Xiao Ming carefully pieced together the fragmented Ancient Map, following the lines and patterns.

Xiao Ming pieced together the map extremely quickly, and before long, a complete Ancient Map gradually appeared before his eyes.

When the last piece of the Ancient Map was placed in its position, a landscape pattern appeared on the completed Ancient Map. However, this so-called pattern was quite ordinary, without any specific target or route. It looked like a landscape painting drawn casually.

Xiao Ming didn't care; the map wasn't meant to be used to find the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.

Suddenly, a ball of Heavenly Flames rose from Xiao Ming's palm, engulfing the Ancient Map.

Xiao Ming's Heavenly Flames was formed by fusing six Heavenly Flames, and its power was enough to burn mountains and boil seas.

However, the Ancient Map showed no signs of turning to ashes. As the flames grew more intense, the patterns on the Ancient Map slowly began to glow, as if they were about to burst forth from the map.

"Huff huff..."

The flames roared, and the intense heat distorted the very space around them.

As the flames burned more and more fiercely, the patterns on the Ancient Map became brighter and brighter. At a certain moment, the Ancient Map suddenly trembled, and the patterns flew up from the Ancient Map and transformed into ancient characters, which floated in mid-air in front of Xiao Ming.

Two Moons Appearing Together.

Nine Stars as One.

The Heaven and Earth Tide.

Demonic Flame Descends.

"The Two Moons Appearing Together and Nine Stars as One —this unique celestial phenomenon will continue for several more years."

Xiao Ming glanced at the text, then his hand went straight to the Ancient Map. The moment he touched the Ancient Map, the Demonic Lotus pattern on it suddenly wriggled, and like a living thing, it turned into a bolt of lightning that shot directly into Xiao Ming's brow!
