=In the following time, the remaining group of people stepped forward one after another, but each of them ended up failing miserably. One of the weaker ones was even so shocked that he spat out a mouthful of blood onto the dragon's head.

When the last person finally returned empty-handed, Qiu Ling sighed inwardly, his eyes filled with undisguised disappointment.

"Since no one can subdue them, let's go back."

He waved his hand Qiu Ling said helplessly.

As Qiu Ling waved his hand, a look of disappointment appeared in Xiao Yan's eyes, but there was nothing he could do. In the current state of the Three Thousand Burning Flame, if he were to Dragon Mark, it would probably be him, not the Three Thousand Burning Flame, that would be controlled.

"Hehehe, this will never subdue the Three Thousand Burning Flame. Now, let me give you a proper show!"

The sudden, eerie laughter caused everyone present to change their expressions drastically.

The one who smiled was none other than the alchemist who had previously coughed up blood!

The moment that eerie laughter rang out, Qiu Ling's expression instantly darkened. Without the slightest hesitation, he waved his sleeve, and a powerful stream of Dou Qi tore through space with a hiss, hurtling towards the location of that person.

"Hehehe"

The powerful surge of Dou Qi qi failed to strike the man, who nimbly retreated. His aura instantly surged to the level of Five Star Dou Zun, and his appearance underwent a significant change, revealing his true form! As he retreated, his hands formed a series of dazzling hand seals. As his hand seals moved, everyone suddenly noticed that the dragon scales on the forehead of the Three Thousand Burning Flame also emitted a subtle energy fluctuation in response.

"Not good."

Upon realizing this situation, everyone was immediately alarmed.

"You dare!"

Qiu Ling's expression changed at that moment, and he roared angrily.

"Hehe, there's nothing in this world that I wouldn't dare to do." In response to Qiu Ling's shout, the man sneered, his hand seals quickly solidified, and a strange smile spread across his face, "Don't worry, I just want to help your Danta get rid of this trouble."

"Burst!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a cold shout suddenly came out of his mouth.

"Bang!"

As the shout fell, a loud explosion suddenly erupted like a thunderclap, without warning, throughout the space.

The moment the explosion rang out, everyone's gaze almost immediately turned to the Three Thousand Burning Flame, and then they saw that the dragon scales on the Three Thousand Burning Flame' forehead, which had no flames, had been blasted open.

As the dragon scale cracked, everyone was immediately shocked to discover that the enormous dragon was slowly opening its huge, tightly closed eyes. Clearly, the perfect seal had developed some flaws at this moment.

"The Three Thousand Burning Flame have awakened!"

Upon seeing the giant dragon gradually open its eyes, a cry of surprise rang out, immediately causing a commotion.

The enormous dragon eyes slowly opened, and after a moment, a cold light emanated from them as they swept over the crowd. Then, the Three Thousand Burning Flame suddenly roared to the sky, unleashing a deafening dragon's cry.

The moment the dragon's roar resounded, the purplish-black flames on the body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame suddenly surged, engulfing the void like a raging fire.

The purplish-black flames surged, and the dense black runes covering the body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame also burst forth with an unusual luster at this moment, like a giant net, tightly binding the Three Thousand Burning Flame.

"Roar!"

The Three Thousand Burning Flame struggled desperately, its roar echoing through the void. The purplish-black flames scorched the black line runes, and from the void, a slightly cool Star Power continuously seeped out, eventually drilling into the massive body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame.

Faced with the desperate counterattack of the Three Thousand Burning Flame, which had been dormant for many years, even the black line runes seemed somewhat inadequate. Under the raging scorching of the purplish-black flames, some of the runes became much dimmer.

"You're asking for it!"

The sudden awakening of the Three Thousand Burning Flame was also unexpected by Qiu Ling. When he came to his senses, his face was immediately covered with a livid color. With a roar, he charged towards the Soul Hall's Dou Zun expert with boundless rage and killing intent.

"Heh heh, since your Danta can't handle this Heavenly Flames, what's the point of keeping it? Wouldn't it be better if my Soul Hall let you enjoy it?"

Facing the Qiu Ling that was rushing towards him with murderous intent, the man remained calm and fearless, and then sneered.

"Xiao Yan, crush the Jade Pearl and notify the guild leader!"

However, Qiu Ling, despite his rage, still retained some rationality, and even as he charged towards the Heavenly Venerable the Soul Hall, he didn't forget to shout.

Hearing Qiu Ling's shout, Xiao Yan, Cao Ying, and the others hurriedly nodded and took out the jade Jade Pearl that conveyed the message from their Storage Ring. Just as they were about to crush it, a sharp gust of wind suddenly appeared and transformed into a thin needle, striking the Jade Pearl with a cunning move.

Because the attack came so suddenly, except for Xiao Yan, the Jade Pearl in the hands of Cao Ying and the others were all knocked out and flew into the distance.

Among them, the Qinghua Old Freak and Wang Yuan Dan, who had reached the Dou Zun level, looked extremely ugly. They were Dou Zun expert, and although the one who launched the sneak attack was also Dou Zun expert had concealed his true strength, it was truly shameful that they were so easily ambushed! "Hmph!"

Xiao Yan snorted coldly, and with a lightning-fast pinch of his two fingers in the air, he caught the thin needle steadily. With his other hand, he crushed the Jade Pearl. Then, he turned his gaze to the direction from which the strong wind came. It turned out that the people who made the move were two contestants who had also made it into the top ten.

"I didn't expect there to be people from the Soul Hall here."

Looking at the two, Xiao Yan couldn't help but sneer. He had underestimated the strength of the Soul Hall. There were actually three people in the top ten. This number of people was comparable to that of the Danta.

"Heh heh, so what if you sent a message? The Three Thousand Burning Flame are struggling, and the three giants of the Danta cannot afford to be distracted in order to maintain the seal of the Star Region. In addition, the Saint Pill City is already in chaos, and the powerful figures of the Danta cannot spare the time!" A middle-aged man with a slightly gloomy face sneered.

Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. Judging from what this person said, it seemed that there must be Hall of Souls Experts stirring up chaos in Saint Pill City. In this way, many Hall of Souls Experts could be restrained. As for the three giants, the Three Thousand Burning Flame would be the best restraint.

In order to maintain the Star Region as a cage, they certainly cannot act recklessly. Otherwise, if the Star Region breaks, the Three Thousand Burning Flame will run rampant and destroy the entire Saint Pill City.

"Xiao Yan, what should we do?" Cao Ying and Dan Chen stood behind him and asked in a low voice. At this time, Qiu Ling was fighting fiercely with the Soul Hall's Dou Zun. Xiao Yuan had disappeared at some point, and they didn't know what had happened. Therefore, their pillar of support could only be Xiao Yan. Song Qing's face turned ashen when she saw this. However, after hesitating for a while, she could only grit her teeth and stand behind Xiao Yan with some reluctance.

"What else can we do? We can't get involved in either of those places, and we don't know where Third Brother has gone. Now we can only wait and see, and wait for the experts from the Danta to come to our aid."

Xiao Yan and Wang Yuan Dan exchanged a glance, shook their heads, and then spoke with somewhat solemn expressions.

Upon hearing this, Cao Ying and the other two women opened their mouths, exchanged a glance, and could only nod slightly. Indeed, there was no room for them to interfere in the two battlefields here.

As everyone was talking, the void suddenly began to fluctuate violently. A vast and boundless power surged out from the nothingness and gathered on the body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame. As this boundless power poured in, the black line runes regained some luster. Clearly, this was the three giants making their move.

"Roar!"

Faced with the seal becoming even tighter, the eyes of the Three Thousand Burning Flame turned crimson. Today was its best chance to escape. Although it could not do anything to the three giants of the Danta if it did not fight to the death, they could not kill it either. If it did not take the opportunity to escape today, it did not know when the next opportunity would come. Over the years, the seal of the three giants had caused it a lot of suffering.

As the eyes of the Three Thousand Burning Flame turned crimson, a destructive aura suddenly emanated from its massive body.

Sensing this destructive aura, Xiao Yan's eyes twitched involuntarily.

He had only ever seen this smell in his Third Brother's Five Round Fire Separation Method at full power, and in the Black Demon Lightning Third Brother cultivated! "Roar!"

A deep, angry roar echoed continuously in this Void Space. The purplish-black flames on the body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame suddenly writhed, and then, to everyone's astonishment, rapidly condensed. In the blink of an eye, a Heavenly Flames, black enough to make one's heart tremble, quietly appeared. Then, the flame split open, turning into tiny black fire droplets that rained down on the massive body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame.

Hiss! The deep black fire droplets landed on the body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame, and the black runes on them instantly melted and disintegrated. However, this method seemed to consume a lot of energy, because the light in the eyes of the Three Thousand Burning Flame seemed to dim slightly at that moment.

Although it was quite costly, the Three Thousand Burning Flame were filled with more excitement. After so many years, it had finally figured out a way to break the seal that had plagued it for so long.

The body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame struggled violently, and the black runes disappeared rapidly. Although the vast power emanating from the space was constantly repairing it, it seemed to be far from keeping up with the speed of destruction.

"Oh no, the Three Thousand Burning Flame are about to break the seal!"

As they watched the increasingly thinning black runes on the Three Thousand Burning Flame' body, Cao Ying, Dan Chen, and Song Qing all paled slightly. As members of the Danta, they were well aware of the devastation that would ensue if the Three Thousand Burning Flame were allowed to escape.

Compared to the three men's pale faces, Xiao Yan showed no sign of panic. If the Three Thousand Burning Flame could truly break free of its seal, his chances of subduing it would actually be greater. Although this was quite dangerous, as the saying goes, fortune favors the bold, and now he couldn't worry about anything else! "Haha! Xuan Kongzi, this time, it's finally your turn to fail!"

Just as Xiao Yan's eyes flashed, the Three Thousand Burning Flame suddenly raised its huge dragon head, and its thunderous laughter echoed endlessly in this Void Space.

"Snap!"

As the laughter subsided, the massive body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame spun wildly in the void for a moment, and then, a sound of something breaking echoed quietly within the space.

Upon hearing the cracking sound, Cao Ying and the others couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"The seal has failed."

As a faint cracking sound rang out, all movement within this Void Space came to an abrupt halt. Even the Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable and the Great Elder Qiu Ling, who were engaged in fierce combat, simultaneously retreated more than ten steps and hurriedly turned their gazes toward the location of the Three Thousand Burning Flame.

Where everyone's gaze was focused, the enormous fire dragon coiled in the void. At this moment, the black runes that covered its dragon scales had all disappeared. Although the light in the Three Thousand Burning Flame's eyes had dimmed slightly due to the breaking of the seal, the ferocious aura that exuded a hint of destruction made no one present dare to underestimate it in the slightest.

"Damn it!" Qiu Ling cursed under his breath, his face ashen as he stared at the Three Thousand Burning Flame Three Thousand Burning Flame now that they were free? "Haha."

Compared to Qiu Ling's grim expression, the Heavenly Venerable the Soul Hall was beaming with excitement. He took a step forward and laughed, "Congratulations on your escape. But can we keep our agreement? Rest assured, as long as you stay in my Soul Hall for a year, I will definitely grant you your freedom. I can guarantee that."

The Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable's tone clearly indicated that he regarded the Three Thousand Burning Flame as an extremely powerful expert, and indeed, the Three Thousand Burning Flame, having gained sentience, did so.

"This old guy actually made a deal with the Three Thousand Burning Flame?" Upon hearing the words of the Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.

The enormous dragon eye of the Three Thousand Burning Flame glanced at the Heavenly Venerable of the Soul Hall before it, a cunning glint of human nature flashing in its eyes. A deep voice came from its massive mouth. "Well, the agreed-upon matter is naturally no problem, but I need to wander around this world first, and then I'll go to your so-called Soul Hall."

Upon hearing this, the Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable's lips twitched, and the smile on his face slowly faded. He said, "So, you want to go back on your word?"

"Tch, you humans are all the same. You think you can make me believe you? Dream on!"

A cold look appeared in the eyes of the Three Thousand Burning Flame Dragon. It had suffered many losses at the hands of humans. Although it did not know how powerful the Soul Hall was, it was not stupid. It knew that others only wanted to obtain its primordial fire.

Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable's face turned completely gloomy. Although he had expected things to not go too smoothly, he still did not expect that the Three Thousand Burning Flame would change its mind even faster than him.

Xiao Yan, who was standing to the side, breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the conversation between the Heavenly Venerable the Soul Hall and the Three Thousand Burning Flame. It seemed that although these two had some cooperation, they were clearly each harboring their own ulterior motives.

Qiu Ling also noticed the situation and hesitated slightly before giving the others a wink. The group slowly retreated some distance. If the Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable and the Three Thousand Burning Flame could fight, that would be ideal. With the Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable's strength, he was no match for the Three Thousand Burning Flame. After they fought fiercely, the troubles outside should be resolved. Then, when the Danta experts made their move, they would surely be able to deal with both the Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable and the Three Thousand Burning Flame.

As the crowd retreated, the Heavenly Venerable of the Soul Hall frowned slightly. He naturally knew what they were planning, but now was not the time to think about that. Although the Three Thousand Burning Flame was powerful, he had to bring it back to the Soul Hall today no matter what.

"Since you refuse to listen to reason, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Although the Danta can't deal with you, my Soul Hall can show you what it means to wish you were dead!"

The withered hand in his sleeve gently unfurled, and the Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable's tone became unusually sinister.

"Laugh!"

No sooner had the Heavenly Venerable of the Soul Hall finished speaking than a dark shadow tore through space, bringing with it a terrifyingly hot wind pressure, and slammed down on his head.

The sudden attack startled the Heavenly Venerable of the Soul Hall. He flashed and appeared more than ten feet away. He stared at the Three Thousand Burning Flame, which was whipping its huge dragon tail, with a gloomy look in his eyes. He clenched his hand, and a bright silver jade tablet suddenly appeared in his hand, which he then crushed.

As the jade tablet shattered, an extremely powerful Space Power suddenly surged out, and then... nothing happened! In fact, not long after, the Space Power slowly dissipated under everyone's astonished gazes! The Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable and the other two Dou Zun also showed expressions of astonishment upon seeing this.

"Demon Flame Tian Zun, what's going on?"

The two Hall of Souls Elder couldn't help but ask.

"The space of this world has been sealed off? That's impossible! I was holding Qiu Ling back just now, and Xiao Yuan's strength is insufficient; he couldn't possibly have sealed off my Space Power! Could it be that there are other powerful figures lurking in the shadows?"

The Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable, known as the Demon Flame Tian Zun, spoke with an extremely grim expression.

"With your meager Space Power, you think you can show off to me?"

As the light laughter rang out, the two Hall of Souls Elder were instantly sealed in black ice coffins. The icy chill caused the surrounding air, which had become scorching hot due to the awakening of the Three Thousand Burning Flame, to cool down considerably.

"It seems the Soul Hall has made quite thorough preparations for today's operation. But why aren't you sending reinforcements immediately? Are you waiting for me to completely seal off the space?"

Xiao Yuan, who had disappeared at some point, suddenly reappeared, casually trapped the two Soul Hall spies, and said calmly.
