Five Wheel Separation Fire Method? What a coincidence, I happen to have five Heavenly Flames!

"Laugh!"

Just as Xiao Yan was about to pull out Venerable Skyfire, a scorching gust of wind appeared without warning and shot towards him!

Fortunately, Xiao Yan was not completely ignorant about this Underground Magma World, and therefore, he had always been on guard.

Just as the scorching wind was about to hit Xiao Yan, he threw a punch, shattering it instantly. The surrounding magma was also pushed aside by Xiao Yan's punch, revealing a vacuum zone.

After dealing with the sudden gust of wind, Xiao Yan turned his head to look in the direction from which the attack came.

A red figure could be seen swimming in the lava about ten meters away. Its entire body was crimson, the same color as the surrounding lava, which was its best camouflage. Its crimson body was covered with red scales, and its red scale tail, about half a zhang long, swayed slightly.

It stands upright on its two legs, with unusually large, webbed feet. Its head is round, and its small eyes gleam with a fierce light. Its large mouth is open, revealing a dense array of sharp teeth. Overall, this creature looks like a lizard capable of walking upright.

The Flame Lizardman are a special race that lives in this lava field.

These creatures possess a Fire Bead within their bodies, similar to Magical Core, but for those who cultivate fire-attribute techniques, it is something far more precious than Magical Core.

"Chirp chirp!"

As Xiao Yan stared at the Flame Lizardman, the latter also stared back fiercely at him. After a brief standoff, the Flame Lizardman's eyes blazed with ferocity, and it let out a piercing cry. Then, it flicked its tail, and its sharp claws sliced through the lava as it charged straight at Xiao Yan.

"Hmph, you're asking for death!"

Xiao Yan's Great Sun Separation Fire Body is now only one step away from the second level of the Separation Fire Body realm. In terms of physical quality, it is already comparable to a peak Fifth Tier magical beast. Ordinary Dou Huang expert would find it difficult to gain any advantage over Xiao Yan in close combat. In addition, with the protection of three Heavenly Flames and the formidable strength of Five-Star Dou Wang, it is naturally impossible for him to back down.

After all, the strength of this Flame Lizardman in front of them was only at the Fifth Tier.

Xiao Yan threw a punch, striking the Flame Lizardman's claws. The sharp claws not only failed to injure Xiao Yan, but instead caused his entire arm to be shattered by the punch. The powerful force sent him flying more than ten meters before he managed to regain his footing with a scream.

However, the Flame Lizardman, who was not killed in one punch, was not afraid at all. Instead, he became anxious. His eyes turned crimson and ferocious. He opened his mouth, which was full of sharp teeth, and the surrounding magma flowed rapidly. In front of his mouth, it turned into a magma ball about a foot in size. Under his control, the magma ball was blasted towards Xiao Yan like a cannonball.

"Snort!"

Seeing that this guy actually dared to retaliate, Xiao Yan's expression turned cold. He then condensed a sky-blue flame in his palm and slapped him directly.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, the magma ball exploded in Xiao Yan's palm, merging into the surrounding magma.

Seeing that Xiao Yan could so easily neutralize his attack, the Flame Lizardman became even more enraged, snarling incessantly while launching a barrage of magma fireballs.

This time, Xiao Yan neither dodged nor resisted, but directly activated the Wind Flurry Residual Shadow, rushing towards the Flame Lizardman at top speed. The magma balls along the way were directly smashed by Xiao Yan, and then he charged all the way to the Flame Lizardman. He put his five fingers together, made a hand chop shape, and directly plunged it into the chest of the magma creature.

Although the magma creature's scales were quite tough, they were powerless to resist under the enhancement of Xiao Yan's three Heavenly Flames.

Laugh!

Struck by a fatal blow, the Flame Lizardman struggled violently. Its narrow eyes flashed with ferocity. Just as it was about to scream and attract its people, Xiao Yan's azure Myriad Beast Lotus Heart Flame instantly incinerated its body, causing it to vanish into ashes before it could even utter a sound.

Xiao Yan coldly watched as the Flame Lizardman was burned into the first part of lava, then withdrew his palm, looked at the crimson bead in his palm, and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.

This Fire Bead is a rare treasure, a precious supplement for those who cultivate Fire Attribute Dou Qi. However, its energy is too violent for ordinary people to consume directly; otherwise, its effects would be comparable to some high-grade pills.

Moreover, this is not a problem for Xiao Yan, who possesses three different kinds of Heavenly Flames.

Unfortunately, there was only one of these crimson beads, which could only save him two days of cultivation time.

If it weren't for his current lack of strength, and his fear of attracting Flame Lizardman of the Dou Zun level, he would definitely have gone on a killing spree today to earn enough resources for cultivation.

Shaking his head with some regret, Xiao Yan's figure descended towards the transparent light circle. Just before touching the transparent light shield, he had a thought, and the Fallen Heart Flame enveloped his entire body, then merged into it without any hindrance.

As Xiao Yan entered the transparent light barrier, the surrounding magma surged again, and soon the light barrier disappeared.

As soon as he entered the light circle, the crimson color that filled his vision quickly dissipated, replaced by a hazy, faint white light. Xiao Yan steadied himself, cautiously scanning his surroundings before finally fixing his gaze on the mysterious skeleton floating in the center.

Once inside, I discovered that the space here was much larger than the space I had seen from the outside. I suppose this is the work of Dou Zun expert.

Without hesitation, Xiao Yan walked directly to the skeleton and bowed respectfully.

"Junior Xiao Yan greets Senior."

Upon hearing this, a dazzling white light suddenly burst forth from within the skeleton, followed by a tremendous force that silently froze Xiao Yan in place.

Then, the dazzling white light writhed and finally transformed into a somewhat ethereal, aged figure.

He was dressed in a white robe, his hair and beard were all snow-white, his face was old, and his eyes gleamed with a faint light. As soon as this illusory figure appeared, Xiao Yan felt a sense of oppression spreading from the bottom of his heart.

This Venerable Skyfire can still unleash the pressure of Dou Zong level cultivator even now?

Xiao Yan felt the incredibly clear pressure and was somewhat surprised.

You know, this guy has been dead for even longer than Old Yao!

"Hiss, what a sharp-witted kid. He was able to detect my presence so quickly?"

As soon as the old, white figure appeared, he stroked his beard and said in surprise.

Xiao Yan smiled without saying a word.

"The Fallen Heart Flame? I didn't expect... it was still subdued..."

Venerable Skyfire ignored whether Xiao Yan answered him or not, and simply continued speaking to himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, he made a gesture with his hand, and the Fallen Heart Flame within Xiao Yan's body flew out uncontrollably and landed in his hand.

The Fallen Heart Flame, like an invisible fire serpent, coiled and lingered on the Venerable Skyfire's palm. Its obedient appearance left Xiao Yan feeling helpless.

It's safe to say that he truly lived up to his reputation as the previous owner of the Fallen Heart Flame. Even though he had completely refined it, Venerable Skyfire could still control it with ease...

"Tsk, you don't seem surprised at all?"

Seeing Xiao Yan's calm demeanor, Venerable Skyfire also felt somewhat bored and couldn't help but ask.

"Senior must have been the previous owner of this Fallen Heart Flame, and I think your demise was most likely related to it."

Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Hey?"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Skyfire was even more surprised.

"What a clever lad, you figured that out."

Upon hearing this, Venerable Skyfire ceased controlling Xiao Yan and casually waved his hand, releasing the Spatial Strength from Xiao Yan's restraints.

Feeling his body regain its freedom, Xiao Yan's smile grew even wider.

"Aren't you afraid I'll take your Fallen Heart Flame back?"

Seeing Xiao Yan's smile widen, Venerable Skyfire asked curiously.

"Haha, in your previous state, you summoned me down so you could see the light of day again, didn't you? Now I'm the only one who can help you leave this place, so why would you do something so unnecessary?"

Xiao Yan said calmly.

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Venerable Skyfire burst into laughter.

"Very well, you're just to my liking, kid. Listen up, my name is Yao Tianhuo. When I roamed the continent, people called me Venerable Skyfire!"

Upon hearing Venerable Skyfire announce his name, Xiao Yan understood that they could now have a proper discussion.

"This humble one, Xiao Yan, greets Senior Tian Huo."

Xiao Yan bowed respectfully and said in a deep voice.

These are future top-tier fighters and members of my future team; I must treat them well.

"Hehe, seeing that you're a straightforward person, then I won't beat around the bush either. It seems you have another soul entity within you?"

Venerable Skyfire was no fool. He had noticed this from the very beginning. From Xiao Yan's performance, he could easily deduce that Xiao Yan's composure in front of him and his ability to see through his secrets must be due to the guidance of a master behind him.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled, then gently stroked the Bone Flame Ring in his hand, from which Old Yao's figure flew out.

"Senior Tian Huo, this is my master Yao Chen, the Venerable Yao. He was once a top-tier Eighth-Grade Alchemist on the continent, and his strength also reached the Peak Dou Zun."

Xiao Yan introduced it with a smile.

"So it's Venerable Yao, a pleasure to meet you. It seems you have a fine disciple."

Upon hearing this, Venerable Skyfire glanced at Old Yao and, sensing the powerful soul fluctuations within him, understood quite a bit. He then smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.

After all, both his Peak Dou Zun Eighth-Grade Alchemist were enough to make Venerable Skyfire show great respect for Old Yao. Moreover, his current condition was far inferior to Old Yao's.

"Indeed, my disciple is very outstanding."

Upon hearing this, the Old Yao returned the greeting with a bow and said with a smile.

"Since young friend Xiao Yan has such a renowned teacher to guide him, then I won't waste any more words. Let's get straight to the point." After saying this, Venerable Skyfire took out the nascent Fallen Heart Flame and the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method from his Storage Ring. "How about you help me out of this predicament and restore my soul power in exchange for this nascent Fallen Heart Flame and the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method?"

Then Venerable Skyfire began to explain:

"This Five Wheel Separation Fire Method was my signature Dou Technique back in the day. However, calling it Dou Technique isn't entirely accurate. To be precise, it's a fire control technique. If you can help me, then this item is yours. You can take a look at it first, and once you're sure there are no problems, you can help me repair my soul."

After saying that, Venerable Skyfire tossed the pale white scroll to Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan took the Dou Technique and immediately began to study it roughly.

Five Wheel Separation Fire Method: A fire control technique, divided into five levels, each capable of condensing its own Fire Spirit, distinguished by the form of a beast: wolf, leopard, lion, tiger, and dragon. When all five beasts are gathered, the technique is perfected, forming the Five Wheel Separation Fire Array, possessing the power to burn the heavens and steam the seas.

If four of the five beasts are formed from Heavenly Flames, then this technique will be as powerful as a Heaven Tier Battle Skill!

"Comparable to Heaven Tier Battle Skill?"

Xiao Yan then showed a hint of shock as he looked at Venerable Skyfire.

At the same time, he was incredibly excited!

Because, including Old Yao's Bone Spirit Cold Flame, he now has exactly five different kinds of Heavenly Flames at his disposal!

This is something Venerable Skyfire certainly couldn't have imagined.

"If that's the case, I agree to your conditions, senior!"

Xiao Yan directly put the scroll of the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method into his Storage Ring and said with a smile.

"Good lad, that's straightforward!"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Skyfire was overjoyed and immediately threw the young Fallen Heart Flame in his hand to Xiao Yan as well.

Upon receiving the nascent Fallen Heart Flame, Xiao Yan smiled, then used the Myriad Beast Lotus Heart Flame to isolate it before swallowing it whole.

"I've entrusted my life to you, kid, so don't let me down!"

Seeing that Xiao Yan had accepted all the benefits, Venerable Skyfire muttered something.

"Don't worry, senior, I have experience in repairing souls."

Xiao Yan glanced at Old Yao and said with a smile.

"That's true..."

Upon hearing this, Venerable Skyfire also felt that Xiao Yan's words made sense. He then directly handed his white Storage Ring to Xiao Yan, before transforming into a beam of white light and entering the Storage Ring.

"Keep my remains safe; they might come in handy someday."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan readily agreed, carefully putting the item away, and then said with a smile:

"To be honest, senior, I am indeed useful. Once my Alchemy are sufficient, I will be able to help you rebuild your body and revive you!"

"Holy crap, is this for real?"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Skyfire immediately emerged from his Storage Ring again.

"Of course it's true, I'm counting on this little guy to help me revive."

The Old Yao said with a smile.

"Very well, I didn't expect I'd have a chance to be resurrected. Now, tell me, what price do you want me to pay?"

Venerable Skyfire was a seasoned veteran, so naturally he wouldn't let Xiao Yan work for nothing.

"It's nothing much, I just need you to protect me for a year after you are resurrected. After that year, you can go wherever you want."

Xiao Yan thought for a moment and then said seriously.

"That's it? No problem!"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Skyfire nodded and readily agreed.
