Arrival

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Strikes of black dots, accompanied by the sound of air being torn apart, gradually appeared on the horizon.

The black dot then rapidly expanded, and in a short while, it transformed into a large number of figures, appearing in the sight of everyone in the Inner Academy.

Seeing these familiar faces appear, Lin Ming's anxious heart immediately calmed down.

After all, the purpose of this mission is to obtain the Fallen Heart Flame. With the memories of the original story, the Fallen Heart Flame is destined not to be resealed in this way.

In the time to come, Han Feng will lead a group of powerful figures from the Black Corner Region to seize it. That will be the true beginning of the great battle.

Combat requires the support of Dou Qi, and in the current period of time, Lin Ming's Dou Qi has been more than half depleted. If this continues, once his Dou Qi is completely exhausted, even if he has the opportunity to compete for the Fallen Heart Flame, Lin Ming will only be able to watch helplessly. Therefore, now that the people from the Outer Academy have arrived, he can finally hand over the heavy responsibility to them, and Lin Ming has time to recover his Dou Qi.

"Looks like we're not too late, haha, it just takes some time to get the manpower in order." The old voice, accompanied by hearty laughter, echoed across the sky.

Who else could this speaker be but Hu Gan, the vice dean of the foreign language department?

"Listen up, everyone! Take over the positions of the Inner Academy elders and maintain this energy network!" After Hu Gan arrived, he waved his hand to give the order. Immediately, the powerful figures who had rushed from the Outer Academy, including Elder Huo and the other elders, leaped up and, with tacit cooperation, successfully took over the operation of the energy network.

With Elder Huo Lin Ming taking over, Lin Ming was finally able to step down.

No longer needing to maintain the energy network, Lin Ming immediately sat down cross-legged not far away, and after swallowing a few Qi Recovery Pill, he immediately began to replenish his Dou Qi.

With the addition of fresh forces, the energy network became even more abundant. In contrast, the flames on the Formless Fire Python within the energy network dimmed somewhat.

The Formless Fire Python, already possessing extremely high intelligence, knew that with the balance of power shifting, if it were to crash into the energy net again, although it could also deplete the energy net, it would definitely be the first to succumb. Therefore, upon seeing the personnel change, the Formless Fire Python formed Snake Formation within the energy net, its forked tongue flicking and hissing continuously, but its body remained motionless.

Maintaining the energy network, the Formless Fire Python made no further move. Hu Gan, his figure flashing to Great Elder Su Qian's side, and said in a deep voice, "Great Elder, continuing to confront it like this is not good for us. Maintaining this energy network consumes too much Dou Qi. If it doesn't move, we can't maintain it indefinitely."

In response to Hu Gan's words, Great Elder Su Qian nodded slightly, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's currently exhausted and won't be able to unleash a powerful attack for a while. This time will give me enough time to prepare the next step of sealing it away."

"Alright, then we will take care of maintaining this energy network. Great Elder, you can proceed with the next sealing step!" Hu Gan nodded, then formed a hand seal, and a powerful Dou Qi surged from his palms, taking the energy from Great Elder Su Qian's hand.

Although Hu Gan's strength is not comparable to Great Elder Su Qian's, he is still a Peak Dou Emperor expert. With so many Dou King Expert working together, the Formless Fire Python, which has already consumed a lot of energy, is unable to break free from its seal. Therefore, Su Qian has entrusted the responsibility of maintaining the seal to Hu Gan.

Seeing that Great Elder Su Qian had freed up his hands to unleash the next seal, the elders in the Inner Academy, who had been resting for a while, immediately leaped into the sky again, hovering in mid-air in a staggered fashion.

At this point, Lin Ming and his companions, who were unaware of the rules, decided not to join in the fun. After all, following these elders, many Instructor with cultivation levels at the Dou Ling stage had also joined the ranks, so whether the three of them went or not was no longer of much significance.

As the formation took shape, Great Elder Su Qian, who was suspended above the energy net, pressed his hands together sharply and shouted in a deep voice, "Form the sealing formation!"

As Great Elder Su Qian's shout fell, beams of Dou Qi suddenly surged out in mid-air, and finally, all the elders and Instructor let out a very unified shout.

A surge of Dou Qi erupted, and nearly a hundred beams of Dou Qi shot out from the hands of the crowd. Their target was not the Formless Fire Python within the energy net, but rather Great Elder Su Qian in the sky!

Gazing at the beam of Dou Qi shooting down from below, Great Elder Su Qian's face was solemn as his hands rapidly changed hand seals. As Great Elder Su Qian's hand seals changed, powerful spatial ripples instantly rose in front of him. As time continued, this rippled space actually formed a vacuum realm of about ten feet in diameter.

The nearly one hundred beams of Dou Qi were all absorbed into the vacuum realm as it was formed, instantly filling it with an extremely powerful Dou Qi.

Sensing the terrifying energy field in the sky, the Formless Fire Python coiled in mid-air to recharge immediately became uneasy. Its white, triangular eyes glared fiercely at Great Elder Su Qian in the sky, and scorching invisible flames immediately erupted from its body.

With a flick of its massive tail, the Formless Fire Python shot towards the energy net like lightning once more. Along its path, space trembled and explosions resounded.

"Everyone be careful! Don't let this beast break through the energy net! As long as we can withstand this wave, we can seal this beast back in." Looking at the Formless Fire Python that was shooting towards them with unparalleled momentum, Hu Gan's face was solemn as he shouted in a deep voice.

Watching the Formless Fire Python below, its teeth clenched and its hands trembling slightly as it tried to stop the frenzied crashing into the energy net, Su Qian knew that they couldn't hold out for long on their own. So, in that instant, the hand seals he formed accelerated once more.

The vacuum realm before them, with the condensation of energy, was almost like a dazzling sun, extremely blinding. And as Great Elder Su Qian accelerated his movements, in the next instant, the barrier of the vacuum realm suddenly trembled violently.

Sensing the trembling Space Barrier brimming with immense energy, Su Qian knew that the energy Space Barrier it had reached its critical point. At that moment, a cold glint flashed in Great Elder Su Qian's eyes, and his low, chilling shout echoed like thunder throughout the Inner Academy: "Beast, go back!"

As the shout fell, Great Elder Su Qian pressed down with both hands. The spatial boundary, which had gathered a vast amount of energy, also tore through the spatial barrier with a hiss and silently merged into the energy net. Finally, like a cannonball, it slammed into the huge body of the Formless Fire Python.

"Chirp~"

Struck by such a powerful attack, an extremely sharp and shrill screech instantly erupted from the Formless Fire Python's mouth. The powerful explosion that erupted from the vacuum realm shoved it violently to the ground, shooting it into the shattered Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower.

The Formless Fire Python was suppressed into the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower. The joy in Su Qian's eyes vanished instantly. His hands suddenly formed a seal, and a sharp voice rang out. "Seal!"

"Oh... yeah..."

Gazing at the Formless Fire Python sealed inside the tower, countless onlookers, including some Instructor, erupted in a deafening cheer.

Seeing the cheering crowd, Lin Ming smiled slightly, thinking to himself, "They're celebrating too soon; those guys are already here!"
