Seeing that the Fallen Heart Flame had disappeared so strangely, Xiao Yuan immediately sensed something was wrong. Having learned from Han Feng's previous experience, Xiao Yuan naturally understood that the Fallen Heart Flame's true form must have transformed into an ordinary flame, hiding within the invisible flames that swept in from all directions.

Whoosh! Xiao Yuan flapped his wings and, before the surrounding flames could form a complete fire net, he darted out through a gap.

Just as he broke free from the encirclement of flames, Xiao Yuan felt a violent fluctuation behind him. Glancing at the corner of his eye, he saw an invisible flame suddenly undulating, with the massive body of the Fire Python appearing and disappearing within it.

"Grumble!"

A sharp hiss suddenly roared into the sky, and Invisible Fire Python emerged from a flame. Looking at Xiao Yuan, who had broken free of the encirclement, a very human-like look of anger flashed in its snake eyes. It opened its ferocious maw and then spewed an invisible flame at Xiao Yuan.

Sensing the sudden heat behind him, Xiao Yuan, who was already on guard, turned around instantly. He flipped his palms, and two surging black and white flames shot out from his palms. Finally, under the watchful eyes of countless people, they collided fiercely with the invisible flame.

"Bang!"

Another deafening roar erupted, and scorching energy surged forth from the point of impact, making the already somewhat sweltering world, caused by the eruption of the Fallen Heart Flame, even hotter, bringing a scorching sensation to everyone like a desert.

Relying on the Yin Yang Dual Flames, Xiao Yuan easily withstood the flame attack that would have been avoided by even ordinary Dou Wang expert. However, before Xiao Yuan could make any further moves, he immediately felt the energy of heaven and earth above his head suddenly surge.

Suddenly raising his head, Xiao Yuan gasped as the air suddenly turned hot. He saw that the clear sky was now filled with invisible flames, which hovered around the Invisible Fire Python, like soldiers ready to launch an attack at any moment.

"Grumble!"

A sharp screech suddenly resounded, and then flames surged across the sky. Everyone could only stare in horror at the invisible flames that fell like cannonballs. The whooshing sound that filled the heavens and earth gave people a feeling that great disaster was about to strike.

Faced with such a massive and terrifying offensive, even though Xiao Yuan was quite strong at the moment, he did not dare to confront it head-on. He immediately flapped his wings and unleashed the full power of the Three Thousand Lightning Movement. Amidst the flashing blue lightning, he dodged the flames falling from the sky.

Compared to the devastating attack unleashed by this extraordinary artifact of heaven and earth, which has been accumulated over countless years, human strength is indeed incredibly fragile. However, this is mainly because Xiao Yuan's strength is not powerful enough. If he were a Dou Zun expert at this moment, controlling the Fallen Heart Flame would not be too difficult.

Unfortunately, he wasn't.

While Xiao Yuan was in grave danger from the attacks of the Fallen Heart Flame, the elders of the Inner Academy were starting to look at Xiao Yuan with new respect.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yuan's strength was so formidable.

As for the people from the Black-Corner Region, their faces were all extremely grim.

Clearly, they never expected that this young man, who was only at the Dou Wang level, would not only defeat Fan Lao in a head-on confrontation but also trap Han Feng through a sneak attack.

They just couldn't understand why Xiao Yuan had trapped Xiao Yan as well. Could that black-robed youth, who was merely at the Dou Ling level, withstand Han Feng's desperate counterattack? Of course, they didn't know that Xiao Yuan's attack had already decided Han Feng's life or death. The so-called desperate counterattack hadn't even caused a ripple in front of Yao Lao, who had recovered all his soul power! But now that Han Feng was trapped, they had all witnessed Xiao Yuan Yuan's combat power. Apart from the Gold Silver Duo and Yin, no one present dared to guarantee that they could deal with Xiao Yuan.

For a moment, the people of the Black-Corner Region were at a loss.

With the leader captured, how could they possibly continue the fight? At this moment, Xiao Yuan, who was dodging the attacks of the Fallen Heart Flame, was also feeling somewhat troubled.

Although he was never afraid of competing with others in terms of energy, thanks to the support of his five Qi Mansion, he really didn't have much confidence if the opponent was Heavenly Flames that had accumulated energy over many years.

However, Xiao Yuan certainly wouldn't let the Fallen Heart Flame continue to exert its strengths.

The enormous body of the Invisible Fire Python contains extremely rich energy, but its origin is never so vast; instead, it is compressed to a very small size.

As long as we can severely damage the essence of this thing, then the Fallen Heart Flame will naturally fall into a state of weakness, and things will become much easier!

With this thought in mind, Xiao Yuan lowered his eyelids slightly while dodging, and then raised them again after a moment. The black and white flames slowly rose, and his originally clear black and white eyes became intertwined and separated like the Yin Yang Dual Flames, finally transforming into the shape of a Yin-Yang fish, which looked as if two pupils, one black and one white, had grown out of one eye.

In Xiao Yuan's eyes, the Invisible Fire Python was now also painted in black and white, and a ball of white snake-shaped flame slowly appeared under a snake scale half a foot below its huge mouth.

Yin Yang Eye ability to see through appearances to the essence of things.

A smile that made the Fallen Heart Flame uneasy appeared on Xiao Yuan's lips. The faint blue light beneath his feet gradually became more dazzling, and a crisp thunderclap rang out in the sky. The next moment, he suddenly stepped forward, leaving behind an afterimage.

"Sizzle! Sizzle!"

Countless gazes were fixed on Xiao Yuan, who had suddenly made a move. After a moment, they were all dumbfounded. The white-clad figure appeared in the gap between the falling fire meteorites with each flash of azure light, leaving behind afterimages.

Judging from his trajectory, it seemed he was heading straight for the Fallen Heart Flame above! Amidst shocked gazes, afterimages appeared and disappeared in the sky, while the real entity that created the afterimages, like a bolt of lightning, swiftly traversed the overwhelming meteorites, approaching the colossal object in the sky!

The extreme speed made Xiao Yuan feel that the entire world was becoming blurry, except for the invisible source of energy beneath the giant maw of the Fire Python at the edge of his vision, which remained bright and clear! "Ho!"

As the distance between them closed, Xiao Yuan suddenly unleashed a deep, thunderous roar. He clenched his fist, and the Yin Yang Dual Flames surged forth, condensing into a black and white flame dragon spear. Under the watchful eyes of countless onlookers, he finally reached the Invisible Fire Python! At such close range, the intense heat caused Xiao Yuan a burning pain throughout his body, yet his hand remained firmly gripped on the flame spear. With a sharp shout, the flame spear, like a bolt of lightning tearing through space, pierced the snake's scale beneath the giant maw of the Fallen Heart Flame with lightning speed!

"Foolish brat, you're practically asking for death!"

In the distance, the people of the Black-Corner Region looked at Xiao Yuan, who dared to get so close to the Fallen Heart Flame, and immediately revealed a mocking smile. Having fought the Fallen Heart Flame head-on, they knew very well how terrifying its power was. Even with everyone working together, they couldn't do any damage to the Fallen Heart Flame. How could Xiao Yuan alone do that?

Even Su Qian wasn't very optimistic about Xiao Yuan. His expression darkened slightly, and his Dou Qi surged within him, ready to provide assistance at any moment.

However, just as everyone was sneering and anxious about Xiao Yuan's reckless actions, the Invisible Fire Python that Xiao Yuan had stabbed suddenly raised its huge head, and sharp sound waves, mixed with undisguised pain, shrieked through the sky!

As soon as the shrill scream rang out, the Invisible Fire Python's body became illusory amidst the incredulous gazes of onlookers. And within its illusory form, a strange flame, seemingly invisible yet clearly perceptible, shone even brighter in a certain spot beneath the Fire Python's massive maw.

"Grumble!"

A piercing scream suddenly resounded through the sky again, and the invisible flames that filled the heavens and earth vanished completely in an instant, as if they had never existed.

As the flames disappeared, the intense heat of the world gradually subsided. However, no one paid any attention to this. At this moment, their gazes were all fixed on the spot where the Invisible Fire Python had disappeared in the sky, where Heavenly Flames about half a meter in size was slowly rising.

This flame appears invisible, yet anyone can sense that it is constantly rising.

Although it appears to be just a ball of flame, it gives one an eerie feeling that it is some kind of sentient being! Silence reigns as everyone stares at the invisible flame in astonishment. Is this the true form of that Heavenly Flames?

Without any hesitation, Xiao Yuan's wings suddenly flapped, and his figure transformed into a streak of light, shooting straight towards the invisible flame.

Seeing this, the students of the Jia Nan Academy had nothing to say. After all, the Fallen Heart Flame had developed sentience and had become a ticking time bomb for the academy. If it could be subdued by their own students, it wouldn't be a loss.

But the people of the Black-Corner Region didn't think that way.

In their eyes, this was what Han Feng wanted. If they let Xiao Yuan take the Heavenly Flames, wouldn't the promise Han Feng made to them be greatly diminished? So, the people of the Black-Corner Region immediately flew towards Xiao Yuan.

"Stop them!"

Su Qian, who had always paid close attention to the powerful figures in the Black-Corner Region, saw their actions and his face immediately darkened. He waved his sleeve and shouted sharply.

During the time that Han Feng, Xiao Yuan, and the Fallen Heart Flame had been entangled, the Inner Academy elders had taken the opportunity to recover their internal Dou Qi. Therefore, when they heard Su Qian shout, figures instantly soared into the sky and intercepted the people from the Black-Corner Region.

As the main forces of both sides converged, the chaotic battle in the sky resumed!

Su Qian looked at the two ungrateful Gold Silver Duo, with a rather gloomy expression.

"Hehe, Elder Su, it's just a ball of fire, is it really necessary to fight so hard?" The golden-robed elder said to Su Qian with a smile, while the silver-robed elder beside him also echoed with a wicked laugh.

Su Qian's eyes were filled with rage as he stared at the two people in front of him. After a moment of silence, the anger on his face suddenly subsided. He emerged from his sleeves with both hands, his tone indifferent and cold. "It seems that Jia Nan Academy has been too lenient with the Black-Corner Region all these years, to the point that they've now come to ride roughshod over us. Well, it's been quite a while since that great battle. It seems we need some more shocking events to remind you of those times. So, let's start with the two of you."

As Su Qian finished speaking, the space around him suddenly rippled, and a powerful aura slowly surged out from his body. The sheer size of that aura was almost unmatched by anyone in the arena.

Sensing Su Qian's terrifying aura, which had almost reached its peak, the Gold Silver Duo' expressions changed slightly. They clasped their hands together, and the two auras merged, barely managing to hold Su Qian back. Although they claimed to be able to rival Dou Zong expert when they joined forces, they would still suffer if they encountered a particularly troublesome Dou Zong expert. After all, the gap between Dou Emperor and Dou Zong was simply too vast. While the entire sky was trembling from the two powerful auras, Xiao Yuan, because no one was stopping him, was the first to appear at the location of the Fallen Heart Flame.

Although the Fallen Heart Flame itself stood motionless in the sky, the terrifying temperature emanating from it still caused the surrounding space to distort continuously, so much so that Xiao Yuan, who was close to it, had to use the Yin Yang Dual Flames to quickly build a defense on his body.

With the help of the Yin Yang Dual Flames separating them, Xiao Yuan successfully approached the Fallen Heart Flame. Looking at the invisible flame that was so close, as if it were within his grasp, Xiao Yuan didn't show much interest.

Without having cultivated the Flame Mantra, if he were to actually take this thing, he would probably explode and die in the end.

However, his going to such lengths was not entirely for the purpose of helping Xiao Yan.

Instead, he wanted to take this opportunity to completely transform the Shao Yin Sovereign Fire within his body! On his palm, the Yin Yang Dual Flames surged rapidly, transforming into black and white light patterns that clung tightly to his body. Then, Xiao Yuan reached out and grabbed the Fallen Heart Flame.

However, at that moment, Xiao Yuan's face suddenly turned bright red, and his entire body instantly stiffened! A blazing fire appeared strangely in his heart, then released a destructive heat with unbridled force, as if it wanted to burn everything in Xiao Yuan's body to ashes.

This burst of inner fire was more powerful than any Xiao Yuan had ever experienced before. However, this time, the inner fire did not help him temper his Dou Qi. Instead, it was filled with a destructive power that Xiao Yuan had never felt before. Sure enough!

Knowing the characteristics of the Fallen Heart Flame, Xiao Yuan had obviously anticipated this situation. Immediately, orange-red flames surged out from his Heart Scarlet Fire Qi Palace, enveloping the heart flame.

However, at this awkward moment when Xiao Yuan fell from the Fallen Heart Flame, and Su Qian and other academy experts, along with the Gold Silver Duo and other Black-Corner Region experts, were locked in a stalemate, a black mist suddenly flew by at high speed, and a strange, unsettling laugh resounded throughout the entire world.

"Hehehe, it's quite lively here!"
