Lure the Enemy In

Faced with the Invisible Fire Python that carried an aura of destruction and was capable of instantly incinerating any Dou Wang expert, Xiao Yan's pupils suddenly contracted, but he did not panic.

Now, he can fully utilize the flight capabilities of the Purple Cloud Wings. When fully activated, combined with Dou Technique like the Wind Flurry Residual Shadow, his speed is comparable to that of Dou Huang expert!

Although the Fallen Heart Flame is indeed difficult to deal with even for Peak Dou Zong expert, the prerequisite is that the Fallen Heart Flame must be at its peak.

Now that the Fallen Heart Flame is severely injured and has self-destructed in two, its strength is not what it used to be. Therefore, even without the help of Old Yao, Xiao Yan is confident that he can put up a fight with the Fallen Heart Flame.

On the Purple Cloud Wings, cloud patterns shone brightly, and as the purple wings flapped, black flames rose, instantly carrying Xiao Yan away from the original spot.

The Fallen Heart Flame reacted even faster; as soon as the enormous, Invisible Fire Python opened its mouth, invisible flames shot out, heading straight for Xiao Yan.

However, a layer of Cobalt Blue Flame Armor instantly appeared on Xiao Yan's body, directly bathing him in the scorching heat of invisible flames. He flapped his wings and soared into the air.

Seeing that Xiao Yan was unharmed, Great Elder Su Qian felt somewhat relieved. He then flashed to appear before Xiao Yan, unleashing a Dou Qi of Dou Qi that shot towards the Invisible Fire Python. At the same time, he roared:

"You beast, cease your arrogance!"

After Su Qian made his move, the other inner court elders who still had the strength to fight, as well as the outer court vice dean Hu Gan and other powerful figures who had just arrived, also made their moves at the same time.

In an instant, streaks of Dou Qi energy were blasted out, all attacking the Invisible Fire Python.

The combined attack of so many powerful individuals was naturally incredibly powerful, even causing the surrounding space to tremble slightly. Finally, it slammed into the massive body of the Invisible Fire Python, causing an energy explosion. The different attributes of the Dou Qi, each a different color, triggered a series of explosions that resembled dazzling fireworks, bursting out across the Fire Python's body.

Although the Fallen Heart Flame was powerful, it was clearly difficult for it to withstand so many attacks at once. In the midst of the explosions, its body plummeted rapidly, its angry roar echoing across the sky.

"Xiao Yan, are you alright?"

As they repelled the Fallen Heart Flame, Su Qian's concerned voice also rang out.

"Great Elder, rest assured, that little flame can't harm me. However, if the Fallen Heart Flame were to self-destruct again, I'm afraid we would have a hard time resealing it."

Xiao Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and then he said meaningfully.

"Hmm, I don't know what's gotten into this beast, that it would retaliate so recklessly..."

Upon hearing this, Great Elder Su Qian continued attacking the Fallen Heart Flame while transmitting his voice.

"Moreover, with the Fallen Heart Flame freed, the fluctuations of that Heavenly Flames will certainly be impossible to conceal. Although the Inner Academy has a spatial barrier for protection, it will probably not be easy to stop a true powerhouse..."

Xiao Yan followed up with his own words.

"So what you mean is?"

Great Elder Su Qian sensed that Xiao Yan seemed to have some ideas. Although he had some guesses, he still couldn't quite believe it.

"No need to hold back. While ensuring everyone's safety, severely injure it, then create an opening for it. If I'm not mistaken, this Fallen Heart Flame probably wants to devour the Heavenly Flames within my body after breaking its seal, which will naturally allow me to recover my injuries to about 70-80%, making it easy to escape this predicament."

But I'm also quite interested in it. If I could devour it, it would be of great benefit to me. As for how the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower will continue to function in the future, Great Elder, don't worry, Xiao Yan has a plan!"

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yan decided to lay his cards on the table.

Rather than letting the elders of the Jia Nan Academy try to do something as futile as sealing the Heavenly Flames, it would be better to let Xiao Yan work for them. Once he absorbs and refines the Heavenly Flames and his strength increases greatly, he will be able to directly reach the level of Sixth-Grade Alchemist. At that time, they will naturally reap the benefits!

Great Elder Su Qian was somewhat surprised to hear Xiao Yan's words.

For an ordinary person, it is already extremely difficult to absorb a Heavenly Flames into their body.

Xiao Yan already possesses two Heavenly Flames, yet he wants to acquire a Heavenly Flames, and it seems he's quite confident about it?

Therefore, it seems highly unlikely that Xiao Yan came from a small place like the Jia Ma Empire. He is probably either a scion of a powerful family in the Central Plains, or...

Like those little girls, she is a prodigy of some Ancient Clans!

Because a genius with such terrifying cultivation speed could not possibly be an ordinary person. Only those races with the Dou Emperor Bloodline could possess such amazing talent!

However, what Xiao Yan said was indeed true. When the dean left back then, he said that the Fallen Heart Flame had already developed sentience and that it would inevitably cause great chaos if it was forcibly imprisoned here. If a student or elder could subdue it, that would naturally be the best choice. It's better to keep the good stuff in the family!

Xiao Yan possesses two different types of Heavenly Flames, making him extremely experienced. However, the Fallen Heart Flame is incredibly powerful; it remains to be seen whether Xiao Yan can withstand it...

Furthermore, the dean left behind the Fire Gathering Pot, a container for the Fallen Heart Flame, precisely to address the issue of the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower's effects disappearing after the Fallen Heart Flame was refined.

However, Xiao Yan said he had a solution?

"You said you have a way to fix the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower's effects disappearing?"

Su Qian couldn't help but ask again via telepathy.

"Great Elder, to tell you the truth, in the Underground Magma World beneath this Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower, an elder with a deep connection to our clan perished. This Fallen Heart Flame was once his Heavenly Flames."

According to the elders of the clan, the predecessor discovered the aura of another Fallen Heart Flame, which was still in its infancy, in the Black Corner Region. He wanted to try to fuse the two Heavenly Flames to enhance Heavenly Flames power, but unexpectedly, due to the incompatibility of the Heavenly Flames, he suffered a backlash during the Fused Heavenly Flame and was severely injured and died.

Not long ago, the clan received a message from that senior. Although his physical body had perished, his soul remained. However, due to the severity of his injuries, he had been in a coma for many years. Fortunately, with the protection of that Fallen Heart Flame, he finally awoke after many years of slumber.

Therefore, my family sent me to the Jia Nan Academy to investigate. It wasn't until the Fallen Heart Flame broke free of its seal just now that I was able to sense a trace of that senior's aura using a secret technique. Given my status, I can certainly decide to give that nascent Fallen Heart Flame to the Jia Nan Academy in exchange."

After hearing Xiao Yan's words, Great Elder Su Qian immediately understood.

Just as he had expected, Xiao Yan was not a member of a family from a remote town in the Jia Ma Empire. With such a background and such talent, it was no wonder that so many outstanding young girls had gathered around him.

Clearly, given Great Elder Su Qian's preconceived notions, Xiao Yan's nonsensical ramblings seemed highly credible.

Regardless, Xiao Yan was, after all, a legitimate student of the Jia Nan Academy who entered the academy through the entrance examination and then through the Selection Tournament to enter the Inner Academy. He did not reveal his extraordinary identity to the public. This persona was naturally more conducive to the reputation of the Jia Nan Academy. After all, such a talented person came to the Jia Nan Academy to study and performed so well. He was the perfect material for recruitment publicity.

On the other hand, Xiao Yan will definitely be extraordinary in the future, and may even become a super strong person at the level of Dou Zun or Dou Sheng. With such a powerful alumnus, Jia Nan Academy will be more confident. In this light, helping Xiao Yan subdue the Fallen Heart Flame today is an extremely worthwhile deal!

Thinking of this, a glint flashed in Su Qian's eyes, and without any further hesitation, she had made up her mind to help Xiao Yan.

While directing the elders to continue unleashing their immense Dou Qi to suppress the rampage of the Invisible Fire Python, he ordered all the elders to attack the Fallen Heart Flame with all their might, without holding back.

Meanwhile, he secretly transmitted his voice to several of the most powerful elders, including Hu Gan, to arrange new tactics.

"Everyone, listen to my command. At crucial moments, reveal some weaknesses to give that beast a 'way out' so it has a chance to attack Xiao Yan!" Su Qian's voice was firm and unwavering. "It's already severely injured. If it doesn't get the Heavenly Flames from Xiao Yan's body, it will surely die today. Therefore, given the opportunity, it will instinctively choose the seemingly weakest target that is most tempting to it! As for Xiao Yan, he has his own way of dealing with it. We just need to create opportunities for him to severely injure this wretch!"

Although Hu Gan Vice Dean Hu and the others did not understand why Su Qian made such an arrangement, they had worked together for many years and naturally knew Su Qian's character and trusted him greatly. Seeing Su Qian's certainty, they all nodded in agreement.

In an instant, the sky was ablaze with the light of various Dou Qi, and the attacks became even more ferocious, pouring down on the massive body of the Invisible Fire Python like a storm, creating ripples of energy that caused it to let out a series of pained and furious roars. Its massive body tumbled and twisted in the air, trying to escape the dense attacks.

"Grumble!"

Moments later, the Invisible Fire Python, which had been relentlessly beaten by the powerful members of the Inner Academy, went completely berserk.

These guys are actually not planning to seal it away, but instead choosing to kill it?

Sensing something was amiss, Fallen Heart Flame fixed its gaze on Xiao Yan, who was being subtly protected by the others and whose aura seemed relatively weak.

We must find an opportunity to break through the blockade and devour the Heavenly Flames within that person in order to break this deadlock!

Enraged by the relentless attacks, the Fire Python let out a deafening roar that shook the heavens.

Then its body suddenly contracted, and the already invisible flames seemed to become more concentrated and profound, radiating a terrifying wave of destruction.

Immediately afterwards, its massive body sprang up, recklessly withstanding several powerful beams of Dou Qi that were striking its flanks!

"Pfft!"

The energy explosion left numerous wounds on its body, flames splattered everywhere, and its aura seemed to weaken further.

But this charge brought it much closer to Xiao Yan. Looking at the black-robed youth with his arms crossed and coldly staring at him, the Fallen Heart Flame's eyes flashed with ruthlessness again. Then, its two snake bodies exploded together, blasting many of the weaker elders around it backward. Immediately, its Origin Flame Seed transformed into a small fire snake again, carrying extremely terrifying destructive waves as it rushed towards Xiao Yan.

"Now!"

Great Elder Su Qian quickly transmitted his voice.

The core elders, who had already received the order, did not try to stop the fire snake the moment it charged out. It seemed that the impact of the explosion had affected the circulation of their internal Dou Qi. They then showed expressions of shock and watched as the fire snake broke through their encirclement.

"Hiss!"

Even with its high intelligence, the Fallen Heart Flame was unaware that it had fallen into Xiao Yan's trap, and simply charged towards the target that emitted an alluring aura of Heavenly Flames!

The terrifying heat instantly scorched and distorted the air. The small fire snake, formed from the essence of the Fallen Heart Flame, with its terrifying power to incinerate everything, crossed the barrier of space and shot towards Xiao Yan, who was right next to it, like an arrow released from a bow!

"Xiao Yan, be careful!"

"Get out of the way!"

The elders, unaware of what was happening, gasped in shock upon seeing this.

In their view, this devastating blow, enough to severely injure Dou Emperor, would have unimaginable consequences if it struck Xiao Yan head-on!

However, faced with this deadly attack that could instantly turn an ordinary Dou Wang into ashes, Xiao Yan's pitch-black eyes showed no fear whatsoever; instead, a cold glint flashed across them.

He had been waiting for this opportunity for far too long!

Just as the fiery serpent was about to strike—

"Drink!"

Xiao Yan suddenly let out a low, sharp shout.

His hands formed hand seals with lightning speed, and the powerful Dou Qi within him surged out like a floodgate opening, without any reservation!

The Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations: First Transformation, Second Transformation!

Two flames, one red and one green, rose and subsided around Xiao Yan 'Xiao Yan aura to surge dramatically!

The energy surge from the eruption of the Heavenly Flames blocked...

"Teacher, help me!"

This time, Xiao Yan really couldn't afford to be careless. While activating the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations, he called Didi to make a ride for him.

"Hehe, I never thought I'd have another chance to capture Heavenly Flames in this lifetime. But this beast is indeed not very intelligent, daring to easily break away from its original form. Finding the Origin Flame Seed is usually an extremely troublesome matter, but this Fallen Heart Flame has delivered itself to my doorstep."

There was a hint of ease in the Old Yao's faint laughter.

If he were facing the Fallen Heart Flame at its peak, he naturally wouldn't be able to capture it directly.

But at this moment, the Fallen Heart Flame, having been brutally beaten by the Inner Academy elders, had deliberately separated its Origin Flame Seed from its body, attempting to easily subdue Xiao Yan, a mere Dou Ling. It could be said that even Su Qian could easily injure it, let alone Old Yao?

So, the instant Xiao Yan's aura surged, Old Yao spoke while simultaneously channeling his soul power into Xiao Yan's body!

A faint, Bone White Flame flickered in Xiao Yan's eyes!

Immediately, he looked indifferently at the ferocious, hissing fire snake, his palm trembled slightly, and a surging, eerie white flame erupted, instantly transforming into a layer of white flame crystals across his entire arm.

Then, to the astonishment of the elders and students of the Jia Nan Academy, Xiao Yan raised his arm, which was covered with layers of white flame crystals, and grabbed!

Brake!

The wailing of the Fallen Heart Flame abruptly ceased, for the hand enveloped in white crystal had already gripped the small flame snake tightly in its palm, and the fingertips, radiating a chilling aura, pierced fiercely into the small flame snake's vital spot!

The Fallen Heart Flame has been subdued!
