As Three Thousand Burning Flame exploded in full force, the wisp of Yao Yan Soul Power was instantly annihilated.

Outside, Yao Yan slowly opened his eyes, and a ray of Azure Flame rose in his eyes. Feeling the sting in his soul, he smiled and said, "The temper is really bad. After a few words, the conversation broke down... It seems that he has a lot of resentment towards Danta."

As he spoke, he took back the palm that was attached to Dragon Scales and looked at Xuan Yi beside him.

"After being sealed for so many years, it is natural to have resentment, especially since it already has an IQ no lower than that of humans." Xuan Yi was not surprised when he heard this, looking at the huge dragon body helplessly, and said softly.

Over the years, Danta has been holding on to a sense of luck, hoping that an alchemist who can be recognized by Three Thousand Burning Flame will appear and subdue him perfectly.

Unfortunately, this is just an unrealistic expectation after all. With Three Thousand Burning Flame's intelligence, how can he be willing to be refined? Now, if he wants to refine it, he can only forcefully separate Three Thousand Burning Flame's body and give it a try.

Xuan Yi looked at Yao Yan and said in a solemn voice, "You should have felt how difficult it is to refine it. Even with the assistance of other people and the suppression of the formation, we can only help you extract its body. The final refining depends on you!"

If Yao Yan already had Four Types of Exotic Flames in her body and had rich experience in refining Heavenly Flames, she would not have agreed to give Yao Yan this opportunity.

Without him, the risk is too great!

Not worth it.

With the talent of Yao Yan, the minimum future achievement is one of Pill Tower Three Giants. Even with enough opportunities, it is very possible to enter the field of Dou Sheng. It would be a real pity if such a talent is destroyed by absorbing Three Thousand Burning Flame!

After all, things like Heavenly Flames, except for the top ones, the rest can only be regarded as icing on the cake for alchemists above High-Grade Eighth-Rank, not necessities.

It's really irrational to bet your life on it.

"Aunt Xuan, I understand. I will prepare patiently until I am confident enough!" Yao Yan accepted Xuan Yi's kindness and nodded.

Xuan Yi heard this, nodded with a smile, then raised his hand to condense a silver light door, and left with Yao Yan.

Before leaving, Yao Yan also glanced at the huge Three Thousand Burning Flame, and the fire in his eyes flashed away. He believed that it would not be long before he would meet Three Thousand Burning Flame again, and when the time came, he would tell Three Thousand Burning Flame who is the real strong one.

"Buzz~"

The silver space light door flickered slightly, and the figures of Xuan Yi and Yao Yan disappeared into Star Region.

The place has returned to calm again, with only endless purple-black flames filling every corner of the space.

After bidding farewell to Xuan Yi, Yao Yan returned to his own courtyard. Since joining Danta, he has naturally been assigned a small courtyard with a beautiful environment and abundant Heaven and Earth Energy. As for maids... if he needs them, Danta can also arrange them.

Yao Yan was sitting cross-legged in the house, playing with Hun Xuzi's Jade Token in his hands. After seeing the body of Three Thousand Burning Flame today, he understood that it was impossible to deal with Three Thousand Burning Flame on his own., even with the help of several people from Wind Venerable, it is useless. Unless Danta is willing to cooperate and suppress it with the formation, it is impossible to separate the body of Three Thousand Burning Flame.

In Original Work, Three Thousand Burning Flame's body was pulled away entirely because Three Thousand Burning Flame wanted to escape the seal and voluntarily gave up the huge body of Star Region.

Otherwise, just relying on Old Man Mu Gu and those Dou Zun, facing Three Thousand Burning Flame, would be like giving away food.

"I still underestimated Three Thousand Burning Flame..." Yao Yan thought to himself, his face slightly solemn. In the current situation, if he didn't want to wait quietly for three years to complete the agreement with Danta, he could only rely on the power of Hun Xuzi.

After only pondering for a moment, Yao Yan suddenly grasped the jade tablet, and the majestic Soul Power between the eyebrows spread out, sealing the surrounding void, and then activated the jade tablet.

"Buzz~"

The moment Yao Yan Soul Power sank into the jade tablet, it trembled instantly, and Ink Black Flame emerged, swallowing up all the fluctuations and energy, as if it were in another void. With the surging black flames, a figure with red eyes appeared in front of Yao Yan.

There was no aura or pressure, but just standing there gave people a sense of oppression.

"Master!" Yao Yan stood up to greet him and bowed respectfully.

"Peak Nine-Star Dou Zong? The training speed is quite fast~" Hun Xuzi glanced at Yao Yan and instantly judged Yao Yan's strength. He immediately laughed. Without his support, the other party could improve his strength so quickly, which made him very satisfied.

Compared with Yao Yan, the few monsters in the Soul Clan who were praised to heaven seem to be just the same thing. It will probably be very interesting when they meet Yao Yan.

Yao Yan obediently lowered his head and let Hun Xuzi Sizing Up.

Hun Xuzi nodded slightly and said calmly, "I suddenly contacted you as a teacher. Did you encounter any trouble?"

"Today, I followed Pill Tower Three Giants to take a look at Three Thousand Burning Flame. Its body is extremely large and powerful, and it is definitely not something that I can deal with now. According to Danta, they are willing to help me extract Three Thousand Burning Flame The body of E, but I must use ten Eighth-grade Pill of more than seven colors in exchange... The disciple calculated that even if you are lucky, it will take three years!" Yao Yan said in a deep voice.

"Ten Eighth-grade Pill with more than seven colors? Haha, Danta those old foxes really don't want to do a loss-making business." Hun Xuzi sneered, and then continued, "Then Three Thousand Burning Flame, I have also taken a look at it, and it has already been cultivated by Danta into a vicious beast. If all the seals are released, its peak combat power will give even a Half-Saint a headache."

Heavenly Flames is different from humans. Their power depends on their own accumulation. Three Thousand Burning Flame has accumulated power for thousands of years on top of Starry Sky. During this period, there is almost no consumption. This shows how far it has grown. Danta is rich and powerful. It can be sealed in Star Region. If it were replaced by other forces, it would have exploded long ago.

After a pause, he looked at Yao Yan, his eyes flashed red, and he said in a conspiratorial manner, "If you don't want to wait for these three years, there is actually a way. Let the people of the Soul Hall cooperate with you and send Three Thousand Burning Flame's seals are all unlocked. When the time comes, Danta will send strong men to deal with it. With Three Thousand Burning Flame's ferocity, Holy Pill City will definitely make a big fuss... No Don't worry about Dou Sheng who is Danta. The Master Council will send Dou Sheng to keep an eye on them. You only need to wait. Once Three Thousand Burning Flame's body is forced out, you will Join forces with the Soul Hall to take him away... Unfortunately, there are many seals set inside Small Pill Tower, otherwise I would really want to loot Danta's treasure house!"

"Teacher, is the movement too loud?" Yao Yan said worriedly.

"Good disciple, you may not know what Soul Clan means... Remember, you are my disciple Hun Xuzi. In the Dou Qi Continent, you don't have to worry about anything. The so-called Soul Hall is just a dog raised by our clan in the outside world, Jie Jie Jie~"

Hun Xuzi laughed strangely, his voice was arrogant and indifferent, and his attitude of treating everything like a rotten dog was clearly revealed.

"Everything will follow the teacher's wishes~" Yao Yan said with a faint smile and cupped his hands.

At this moment, he did not feel any resentment in his heart, because he, Yao Lao, Danta, etc. were not the same person. Once Tunling Clan's bloodline was exposed, only Soul Clan could save him in the world. If even Soul Clan was hostile to him, then he would truly be the enemy of the whole world and there would be no place for him.

Although Yao Lao and others' daily life together is very comfortable and warm, the dream will eventually have Su Xing one day.

If you want to become stronger, you have to give up something, and no one can take it all.

"Nice look~" Hun Xuzi was very satisfied with Yao Yan's look. He agreed without hesitation and admired Yao Yan even more. A strong person must have a strong attitude. If he always associates with some ants, he will eventually turn himself into an ant.

He continued, "When things here come to an end, I will personally take you back to the Soul Clan. With your strength, there is no need to continue training in the outside world!"

"Okay!" Yao Yan nodded in response.

Hun Xuzi nodded, and his body turned into a wisp of flame and disappeared into the jade tablet.

Yao Yan's hand holding the jade medal was slightly clenched, his eyes were slightly cold, and many of the emotions in his heart were suppressed by him. Morality, bottom line, family affection... Only those who are alive are qualified to discuss these. When will the weak be qualified to enjoy these? Do you expect those strong men who can slap you to death to sympathize with you?

The strong and the weak never empathize.

As for waiting for three years... he was afraid that he couldn't afford to wait. The softness and kindness of the weak were never worth mentioning.

"We have to part ways after all~" Yao Yan suddenly felt lucky that Yao Lao and others chose to retreat. If they all came out of seclusion, he might really have a headache, because he might not be able to do anything to them.

Yao Yan took back the Soul Power that covered the surrounding area and prepared to go to Holy Pill City to increase the reward price. He needed to refine the elixir as soon as possible.

Central Plains, Northern Domain.

Soul Hall Heavenly Hall.

A magnificent hall located deep in the mountains suddenly emitted several terrifying auras. Just a few auras revealed, causing Heaven and Earth Energy to pause, as if he could not withstand the pressure.

As a figure appeared above High Platform, dozens of figures around him stood up and saluted. "Hall Master!"

"There is a disciple of an adult in the clan who wants to seize Three Thousand Burning Flame from Danta and needs Soul Hall's cooperation. The deputy Hall Master and several Heavenly Venerate are leaving. Let's go and help him unlock Three Thousand Burning Flame's seal and bring Three Thousand Burning Flame back to our clan." The middle-aged man above High Platform slowly opened his eyes, his calm eyes showed no emotion, and he said calmly.

"Hall Master, do you want to make the matter bigger? Danta has quite a few alchemists~" Deputy Hall Master, a man with a cold appearance, asked in a low voice.

"Don't go too far. At present, everything is mainly dormant. It's not yet time to start a full-scale war with Danta... If the adult hadn't spoken in person, I wouldn't have agreed!" Hun Miesheng shook his head slightly and said calmly.

The priorities are clearly defined. Soul Hall has not yet completed the family's big plan. Everything is naturally based on the original plan. Such dirty work, if Hun Xuzi hadn't spoken out in person, Hun Miesheng would have ignored it.

Hun Xuzi is Soul Clan Chief Alchemist. If he wants to improve his strength, he has to look at the opponent's attitude.

When the strength reaches above Dou Sheng, each small stage of improvement requires a huge amount of energy. It takes too long to accumulate through self-cultivation alone, and the unit of measurement is hundreds of years. If you want to skip this process, you can only rely on Ninth Grade Pill. However, the number of Rank 9 Alchemist in the world is too rare, and they are all at odds with the Soul Clan. Everyone knows.

This also makes Hun Xuzi have a transcendent status over Soul Clan and is almost irreplaceable.

"That's such a pity~" Great Heavenly Venerate said quietly.

"There are plenty of opportunities. There is no need to keep an eye on Danta. There are many alchemists from the outside world... Unfortunately, there is no way to take action against the Yao Clan. There are really many alchemists in that place~" A Heavenly Venerate sighed with emotion. With their strength reaching their level, there are not many secrets in this world. Emperor Clan is naturally no stranger to them.

"Sooner or later we will take action against them!" Another Heavenly Venerate said coldly, seeming to dislike Yao Clan.

Hun Miesheng did not stop several people from communicating. Soul Hall was originally a bitch raised by the Soul Clan. He specialized in doing dirty work. He was the most notorious force in the entire Dou Qi Continent. Even several major Emperor Clans were extremely repulsive to him and even secretly supported Danta.

Several big Emperor Clans have always been like this. They never end up personally. They all live in their own realm and are aloof from the world.

"Get ready, and try to control the movement. It's best not to take action if Dou Sheng and above can't take action. This Rules can't be broken at least for now!" Hun Miesheng interrupted everyone's chatter and warned in a deep voice.

Once Dou Sheng above takes action, the movement will be too big. Even several big Emperor Clans will pay attention, which will be very troublesome.

"Understood, I will keep an eye on those old guys from Danta!"

"Count me in, I haven't chatted with them for a long time, Jie Jie Jie~"

For a moment, the entire hall was like Ghost Realm, with strange laughter coming and going.

While Soul Hall was preparing, Yao Yan also collected the required medicinal materials. In Holy Pill City, as long as you can afford a few, there are almost no medicinal materials that cannot be purchased. Even some medicinal materials that are almost extinct can be purchased here.

"Eighth-Order Profound Ice Toad King's Magic Core, Life Severing Grass, Yin-Yang Extinction Fruit... the medicinal materials for refining Seven Absolutes Pill have finally been collected!" Yao Yan looked at the medicinal materials in front of him and sighed softly in his heart.

Seven Absolutes Pill, High-Grade Eighth-Rank elixirs are made from seven materials with extremely yin properties. They can cut off all vitality, including energy, Heavenly Flames... It is a special elixir that Assist Cultivation or refines Heavenly Flames. It can restrain the immortality attribute of Three Thousand Burning Flame.

"Let's get started~" Yao Yan casually threw the refined medicinal materials into Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron. As Azure Flame rose, the precious medicinal materials turned into crystal droplets, overflowing with bursts of energy fluctuations and impacting on Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron.

Yao Yan's expression remained unchanged as he concentrated on extracting them.

Time seems to be passing faster at this moment...
