"Haha, Senior Sister Han Yue is indeed good, but I don't have the intention." Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head. Looking at Elder Liu's surprised expression, he stopped dwelling on this issue and turned the question away with a smile, "Elder Liu hasn't introduced this "Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower" to the students yet."
"Oh, I almost forgot, haha. Come with me." Being reminded by Xiao Yan, Elder Liu quickly patted his head, smiled apologetically, then turned around to lead the way, and Xiao Yan followed closely.
This Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower was buried deep in the ground, with only a section of the tower's top exposed. The area inside the tower was so spacious that it was beyond Xiao Yan's expectation. As he walked along the way, Xiao Yan discovered that the space inside the tower on the first floor alone was enough for five hundred people to practice at the same time.
In the space inside the tower arranged in a circle, there are training rooms of different sizes. However, most of these training rooms are already occupied by people at this time, and above the doorways of these rooms, there are some Little Red signs hanging, but the words written on the signs are different, Xiao Yan stopped and looked at it. It turned out that these Little Red signs had three words representing levels: high, intermediate, and low. Thinking about it, these should be the levels of the training rooms in Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower that A Tai said.
As he walked slowly from east to south, Xiao Yan discovered that it seemed that all the high-level training rooms were close to the center of the tower, and around them, there were intermediate training rooms and more peripheral low-level training rooms.
"In this Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower, these high, middle and low-level training rooms generally have to be fought for by one's own strength. Those with strong strength can obtain the best training conditions. If they are weak, they can only go to the outermost low-level training room to practice." Pointing to a training room with a high-end brand, Elder Liu said with a faint smile.
"In the tower on the same floor, regardless of the level of the training rooms, their training costs are the same. For example, in the first floor, the low-level training room is a "fire energy" training for one day, and the same is true for the high-level training room."
"The same expenses are spent, but the results obtained are vastly different. Wouldn't this lead to a situation where the strong will become stronger and the weak will find it difficult to catch up?" Wu Hao asked with some confusion.
"Without facing difficulties, people's potential will not fully explode. What we need is this kind of alternative suppression. As long as the suppression reaches the extreme, there will always be some students who completely explode and catch up with the previously untouchable strong ones at an extremely fast speed. Inner Academy Until now, this kind of thing happens almost every year." Elder Liu shook his head and smiled.
In this regard, even Xiao Yan couldn't help but slightly nodded in agreement.
Cultivation relies on the word struggle. How can you change your destiny if you can't go against the will of heaven?!
Wu Hao next to Xiao Yan also understood, but at this moment, the steps he had been walking suddenly stopped. Looking along his line of sight, he found that they had reached the center of the tower.
"This is...?"
Looking at the bottomless black hole that appeared in front of him with some astonishment, Wu Hao slowly took two steps forward, came to the edge of the black hole, and carefully looked down. The darkness spread to the end of his sight. The weird darkness with almost no light made Wu Hao feel slightly dizzy.
This black hole seems to penetrate the entire Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower. If it were not covered by the tower spire, this dark and deep hole might be visible from the sky at a glance.
In this dark deep cave, if you look closely, you can feel that the air here is much hotter than other places. It feels like there is something at the bottom of the deep cave that is continuously emitting heat to the entire Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower.
Stretching out his palm to grab a handful of the hot air, Xiao Yan also leaned down, his eyes inadvertently changing to gilded gold. It exudes a kind of nobility but simplicity, just like Core Flame emperor.
Under the gaze of the pair of gilded eyes, in the endless darkness, the space suddenly began to twist slightly, and then, these twisted spaces were like invisible pythons, climbing towards the entrance of the cave at an extremely terrifying speed.
"Xiao Yan, back away!"
Just when the twisted space was about to climb up, a shout suddenly rang in Xiao Yan's ears, and immediately a dry palm was placed on his shoulder. Xiao Yan frowned slightly, but did not resist. Then he was pulled hard and was taken far away from the dark hole.
Not long after Xiao Yan was pulled away from the cave entrance, he suddenly felt the temperature around him rising rapidly. Then, he heard an extremely sharp "hissing" sound spreading from the deep cave, and then he heard something coming.
"Hiss."
Strange sounds were like lightning flashes, spreading continuously in the dark cave. After a moment, the slightly dim environment suddenly brightened up, and the temperature in the air also rose rapidly. An extremely terrifying and ancient aura slowly emerged from the black hole. Finally, like lightning tearing through the night, the seemingly endless deep darkness burst out.
Wu Hao on the side looked at the hole with a stiff face, and his throat couldn't help but roll.
At this time, the space about two meters above the entrance of the cave has almost fallen into an extremely distorted state. However, although the space is extremely distorted, nothing can be seen with the naked eye. Except for those distorted spaces and the constant "hissing" sound, the entire area looks a little weird because of this scene.
On the side, Elder Liu's face was also extremely solemn, and he kept pulling Xiao Yan and Wu Hao back. When his eyes looked at the twisted space, a flash of fear flashed through him. Although he could not see what was there, he had been an elder in the tower for so many years, and he had vaguely heard of some things, so he also knew how terrifying that thing in the deep darkness was.
It was invisible to the naked eye, but Xiao Yan's golden eyes could clearly see the terrifying thing emerging from the black hole. The body being dragged by Elder Liu suddenly froze.
In the reflection of his gilded eyes, Xiao Yan saw clearly what surged up from the endless darkness. It was an invisible huge fire python that was more than ten meters thick, but he didn't know how long it was.
The fire python's whole body was wrapped in somewhat twisted flames. Its huge mouth was wide open, and its thick fangs were as big as Xiao Yan's thighs with a twisted wave. It had a pair of huge triangular eyes, and invisible fire was constantly spraying out from them. Xiao Yan was no stranger to this flame, because he had suffered from this flame before. Of course, compared with the wisp of invisible fire that appeared in the heart before and this giant python that seemed to be completely condensed by flames, there was undoubtedly a gap between a firefly and a bright moon. Feeling the intensity of the flames on the body of the fire python, Xiao Yan had no doubt that even a strong Dou Huang would be reduced to ashes in an instant if it touched his body!
The fire python roared out of the darkness. However, just when it was about to reach five meters above the dark cave, the surrounding space fluctuated violently. With the help of Azure Fire, Xiao Yan was able to faintly discover that it seemed that At this moment, the space around the black hole was twisted extremely strangely to form a space cage. Although Formless Fire Python was so powerful, when it hit the space cage, it only caused the cage to fluctuate for a while, but had no other effect.
Finding that there was no hope of a breakthrough, the fire python couldn't help but go crazy. The invisible flames spurted out from its huge mouth, constantly burning the space cage. Unfortunately, no matter how it burned, the space cage still stood firmly!
After struggling crazily for a long time, Formless Fire Python was finally exhausted. He looked up to the sky and let out a roar containing violent emotions. Then he saw that the space continued to twist, and the fire python turned invisible again and crawled back into the deep hole of darkness.
As the fire python disappeared, the spatial cage gradually faded until it finally disappeared.
Feeling the surrounding temperature drop, Elder Liu took a long breath and murmured, "It's so dangerous, but how could this thing suddenly wake up?"
On the side, Wu Hao also gradually recovered from the shock, and said in a hoarse voice, "Elder Liu, what is that?"
Wu Hao was shocked to come back to his senses by Wu Hao's question. Elder Liu looked at the former with a solemn face and said in a deep voice, "Don't tell anyone about what's going on here. Originally, students were not allowed to go near the center of the tower. Today I have been a bit negligent in my duties. Fortunately, it is my turn to be on duty today, otherwise there will definitely be some trouble."
Seeing Elder Liu's solemn expression, Wu Hao nodded. Xiao Yan, seeing Elder Liu's eyes, seemed to agree. He nodded and spread his hands innocently. "I didn't see anything. I just suddenly felt that the temperature here had become much higher. In addition, there were some sounds in the black hole."
"It's naturally best if you haven't seen it. It's better not to know about some things. You should come here less often in the future, otherwise you will be discovered, and our elders on duty will be implicated." Elder Liu breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't have much doubt about Xiao Yan and Wu Hao. After all, even he himself couldn't see the terrifying thing. He could only rely on the twisted arc of the sensing space to judge the shape of the invisible thing.
In this regard, Xiao Yan was noncommittal, but he made up his mind that next time he came alone, he must give Fallen Heart Flame some good looks, or at least erase some of its consciousness!
There are too many smart Heavenly Flamess, but there are no good Heavenly Flamess.
Hearing what Elder Liu said was so serious, Wu Hao's expression couldn't help but change, and he nodded hurriedly.
"Okay, let's go." Seeing Xiao Yan nodding, Elder Liu's face softened a little. He glanced at the bottomless black hole again with lingering fear, turned around and walked outside.
Behind Xiao Yan, Wu Hao nodded again, and then followed. When he was about to turn, he turned his head and glanced at the bottomless black hole that had fallen into silence again, with a faint whisper of horror in his heart. He murmured, "What on earth is that? That aura is too powerful, and that space cage is also very perverted. Under the destruction of that terrifying thing, there is no reaction at all. This "Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower" is indeed full of mystery everywhere."
After leaving the central area, Elder Liu also regained his previous calmness, and once again took Xiao Yan to wander around the first floor of the tower. Along the way, he kept telling him some rules in the tower and other things that needed attention, trivial and trivial, just like an ordinary old man.
Along the way, they could occasionally meet some students, and when they saw Xiao Yan and Wu Hao who were chatting happily with Elder Liu, they were all a little surprised. Due to the identity and strength of these tower-guarding elders, and their usually extremely strict treatment of people, many students respected and feared them. Except for some old students who were extremely powerful, it was rare to see any elders treat a new student so politely.
The surprised looks along the way made Wu Hao understand the intimidation that Elder Liu had here. It is said that there are people in the DPRK who are easy to do things. Now that they are new here, it is naturally best if they can make some connections. Regardless, No matter how great his potential is, at least for now, he is only at the Great Dou Master level. This kind of strength is really nothing to praise in the eyes of Elder Liu, who has reached the Dou King level.
"Xiao Yan, Wu Hao, your Pan Gate has just been established. I suggest that when you enter Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower to practice, don't grab any high-level practice rooms for the time being." Walking to a place, seeing that there were fewer people around, Elder Liu suddenly smiled lightly.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan was startled, and then nodded slightly. He didn't even plan to enter it to practice except that he needed to go in to suppress Fallen Heart Flame.
As one of the actual people in power, Wu Hao now understands that just after entering Inner Academy, they want to occupy the best training place, which will undoubtedly make more people dissatisfied with their "Pan Gate". I am afraid that as soon as a group of people enter, there will be forces coming. Forced to expel people, and compared with those veteran forces, the current "Pan Gate", in addition to Xiao Yan and the four Dou Ling, only have a few Great Dou Master. Although it may be the winner in terms of high-end combat power, there is a huge difference between the middle power and the bottom power! None of the others have the strength to compete with them, and in this kind of battle between forces, just a few of them will undoubtedly not be able to achieve a reversal effect that can turn the tide.
"Due to the rules in the tower, we elders guarding the tower cannot interfere in the fight for the training room among the students. Therefore, as long as no lives are lost, most of us will not interfere." Elder Liu pondered for a while and smiled, "But as long as you guys If "Pan Gate" can quickly produce a strong Dou Ling, then it will be qualified to join the second-tier force of the Inner Academy. At that time, you can participate in the competition for the training room. I think, with your potential, you should be able to do so very soon."
