Su Yun defeated Xu Jie in one move, then examined Zi Yan’s cocoon and accelerated her absorption of its stored energy. The cocoon began to crack as Zi Yan’s aura neared the breakthrough from Dou King Peak to Dou Emperor.

• Su Yun agreed to let Xu Jie use his strongest attack, then destroyed the Exploding Thunder Fist with a simple strike of flaming Dou Qi and made Xu Jie admit defeat.
• Su Qian finished addressing the students and took Su Yun and Xiao Yi Xian to check on Zi Yan.
• Su Yun determined that Zi Yan’s cocoon was normal and that she could advance sooner if he sped up her absorption of its energy.
• Su Yun placed Zi Yan’s cocoon in the Myriad Beast Cauldron and used Heavenly Flames to refine its stored energy while Xiao Yi Xian guarded him.
• After a month of refining and three more days of absorption, Zi Yan’s aura neared the Dou Emperor boundary, and fissures spread across her cocoon.

Zi Yan broke through to Dou Emperor but reverted to her child form before she could fully refine the Form Transformation Grass. Su Yun checked Qing Lin’s progress, then discovered from Mo Ya’s memories that Black Emperor Sect had obtained the Bodhi Transforming Body Saliva and prepared to target the sect.

After Jia Nan Academy destroyed the Black Emperor Sect, Su Yun discovered Soul Hall agents nearby and returned to the academy, where he began refining a Flying Dou Technique from a seventh-tier Heavenly Demon Phoenix’s bone wings. He completed the Thousand Illusions Shadow Wings and left the Bodhi Transforming Body Saliva as one of the materials needed to help Xiao Yi Xian condense a Poison Pill.

• Su Yun led Jia Nan Academy’s elders in wiping out the Black Emperor Sect, while Hai Bodong and Xiao Yi Xian attacked its branches.
• Su Yun sensed two Soul Hall agents, who discussed dealing with Xiao Yan, influencing factions around the Jiama Empire, and preparing to act against the Xiao Family.

• Xiao Yan sensed Qing Lin’s soul aura and asked Medicine Elder whether it was a Spirit Realm Soul.

Xiao Yan learned that his Soul Power had only reached the peak of the Mortal Realm Mid-stage, while Su Yun went to fulfill his promise to refine a Wall-Breaking Pill for The Two Elders Qian and Bai. Su Yun began refining the pill, with his Heavenly Flames shocking the elders.

• Medicine Elder told Xiao Yan that his Soul Power was at roughly the peak of the Mortal Realm Mid-stage and urged him to aim for the fifth tier to defeat Han Xian.
• Zi Yan told Su Yun that Su Qian wanted him to come because The Two Elders Qian and Bai had emerged from seclusion and the pill ingredients were ready.
• Su Yun met Su Qian and The Two Elders Qian and Bai, who agreed that refining one Wall-Breaking Pill from six ingredient sets would satisfy the condition for his subduing Fallen Heart Flame.
• Su Qian gave Su Yun the six sets of ingredients and brought him to a secluded cultivation ground where the elders would handle the pill lightning.
• Su Yun brought out the Myriad Beast Cauldron and began warming it with three Heavenly Flames, astonishing The Two Elders Qian and Bai.

Su Yun refined the Seventh-Grade Peak Wall-Breaking Pill, drawing pill lightning that Qian Mu and Bai Lie destroyed. The pill was safely captured, and Bai Lie claimed it before Qian Mu could take it.

• Su Yun refined the medicinal ingredients into liquid and spent two more days condensing them into the Wall-Breaking Pill.
• The completed pill drew pill lightning, and Qian Mu and Bai Lie flew into the sky to destroy the bolts.
• Xiao Yan watched with Medicine Elder, who identified Su Yun as the likely alchemist and explained that the pill could help the two elders break through to Dou Zun.

• Bai Lie kicked Qian Mu away and hugged the Jade Bottle after Su Yun asked which elder would take the pill first.

Su Yun refined a second Wall-Breaking Pill and prepared to absorb the Fallen Heart Flame in the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower. Qing Lin cultivated the Azure Jade Nether Pupils and secretly peeked through Su Yun’s Soul Barrier, while the chapter ended with Su Yun reaching the tower’s lowest level.

• Su Yun spent ten days refining a second Wall-Breaking Pill, succeeded on his third attempt, and handed the pill to Elder Qian Mu.
• Qing Lin successfully cultivated the Azure Jade Nether Pupils, used them to look through Su Yun’s Soul Barrier, and blushed before Cai Lin questioned her.
• Half a month later, Su Yun told Su Qian he was ready to subdue the Fallen Heart Flame, and Su Qian agreed to close the tower and arrange guards.
• Xiao Yan learned that four Dou Zong experts guarded the closed tower and realized he had no chance to enter.
• Su Yun arrived at the tower’s lowest level and told Su Qian he could pass through the seal using a secret method.

Su Yun entered the underground magma world to subdue the Fallen Heart Flame, but first sought Heavenly Flame Venerate’s isolated space to improve his odds. After finding it near the Flame Lizardmen’s settlement, he used the System Space to bypass its barrier and enter.

• Su Qian warned Su Yun that the Fallen Heart Flame was more dangerous than the Heavenly Flames he had refined before, and Su Yun assured him he was prepared.
• Su Yun entered the seal and traveled through the magma, avoiding an Invisible Fire Python as he searched for Heavenly Flame Venerate’s hidden space.
• After searching for a day and a half, Su Yun sensed the Flame Lizardmen and carefully crossed their settlement, where dozens of Dou Zong and nearly ten Nine-Star Dou Zong lived.
• Su Yun found a spatial barrier and, after it repelled his hand, used the System Space to jump past it and enter the isolated space.

Su Yun met Yao Tianhuo, the remnant soul of Heavenly Flame Venerate, in a hidden space beneath the magma and learned how the former Dou Venerate had been trapped there. Yao Tianhuo offered a powerful Dou Technique and help subduing the juvenile Fallen Heart Flame in exchange for Su Yun taking him to the surface, and Su Yun considered his request.

• Su Yun approached the skeleton and juvenile Fallen Heart Flame, prompting Yao Tianhuo's remnant soul to reveal itself.
• Su Yun and Yao Tianhuo discussed the Flame Lizards and learned that Yao Tianhuo had been gravely injured after two Heavenly Flames fought inside his body.
• Yao Tianhuo introduced himself as Heavenly Flame Venerate and offered the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method and help subduing the Fallen Heart Flame in exchange for escape.
• Yao Tianhuo inferred that Su Yun possessed a hidden means of traveling through space, but kept his suspicions to himself.
• Su Yun acknowledged that he had underestimated Yao Tianhuo while remaining unaware that Yao Tianhuo had deduced clues about his ability.

Su Yun accepted the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method from Heavenly Flame Venerate, secretly planted a Soul Imprint in the Soul Nurturing Saliva he gave him, and learned the technique. He then subdued the young Fallen Heart Flame and had the system recycle it into the System Space.

• Heavenly Flame Venerate gave Su Yun the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method, and Su Yun agreed to help him return to the surface.
• Su Yun gave Heavenly Flame Venerate Soul Nurturing Saliva containing a hidden Soul Imprint as a precaution.
• Su Yun used the system to learn the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method by consuming resources to synthesize a Seventh Tier Energy Crystal Block.
• After absorbing the Soul Nurturing Saliva, Heavenly Flame Venerate offered to help, then reacted in shock when Su Yun revealed three Heavenly Flames.
• Su Yun trapped the young Fallen Heart Flame with his three Heavenly Flames and used the system to recycle it into the System Space.

Su Yun and Heavenly Flame Venerate entered the underground magma world and tried to cross the Flame Lizardmen tribe unseen. When the lizards discovered Su Yun and launched a coordinated attack, Heavenly Flame Venerate used the infant Fallen Heart Flame to disrupt their assault.

• Su Yun put Heavenly Flame Venerate and his corpse in the snow-white Ring of Holding, then returned to the underground magma world under Deceive Heaven Conceal World.
• Su Yun carefully moved through the Flame Lizardmen tribe and found no nearby Dou Zun-level lizards, but the lizards gradually surrounded him.
• When a flame lizard touched him and revealed his presence, Su Yun used Canyang and Blazing Flame Heaven-Earth Split to cut a path through the tribe.
• Dozens of Dou Zong flame lizards prepared a combined attack, so Su Yun handed the infant Fallen Heart Flame to Heavenly Flame Venerate.
• Heavenly Flame Venerate drew the Fallen Heart Flame into his soul, causing invisible flames to engulf the lizards and disrupt their gathered Dou Qi, which exploded.

Su Yun used the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Changes to fight off the Flame Lizards blocking his escape from the underground magma. He reached the upper magma layers safely, but his attack still fell short of Dou Zun might, and a powerful presence stirred in the depths.

• Heavenly Flame Venerate burned the Fallen Heart Flame's source power to disrupt the Flame Lizards, then returned to Su Yun's Ring of Holding.
• As the Flame Lizards pursued him and blocked his escape, Su Yun activated the first change of the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Changes and briefly rose to Two-Star Dou Zong.
• Su Yun combined three Heavenly Flames in the Fire Sun Emperor Sword and struck the pursuing Dou Zong-level Flame Lizards, killing many but failing to break their defense.
• Heavenly Flame Venerate urged Su Yun to flee before deeper Flame Lizards arrived, and Su Yun escaped upward with the Thousand Illusions Shadow Wings.
• In the upper magma layers, Su Yun recovered some Dou Qi and reflected that his strongest attack had not crossed the threshold to Dou Zun might.
• A thick pressure emerged from the deeper magma after Su Yun escaped.

Su Yun and Heavenly Flame Venerate devised a way to capture the mature Fallen Heart Flame by exploiting its longing for the juvenile flame. After the capture, Su Yun opened the seal above the magma, leaving them a route out.

• Heavenly Flame Venerate warned Su Yun that he had only a thirty percent chance of persuading the Fallen Heart Flame to become Su Yun's master, and Su Yun revealed he had another plan.
• Heavenly Flame Venerate approached the Invisible Fire Python and offered it the juvenile Fallen Heart Flame in exchange for help escaping the seal.
• The Invisible Fire Python relaxed and reached into the spatial ring, allowing Su Yun to recover it into System Space and seize the ring containing the juvenile flame.
• Su Yun froze the captured Invisible Fire Python, and Heavenly Flame Venerate praised his methods without asking how they worked.
• Su Yun pressed a hand seal against the energy barrier and opened a passage large enough for one person.

Su Yun brought Heavenly Flame Venerate out of the underground magma world and offered to resurrect him in exchange for three years of service, which Heavenly Flame Venerate accepted. After securing the young Fallen Heart Flame for Jia Nan Academy, Su Yun returned with Heavenly Flame Venerate and arranged for him to guide Hai Bodong.

• Su Yun offered to resurrect Heavenly Flame Venerate in exchange for three years of service, and Heavenly Flame Venerate agreed.
• Su Yun explained the resurrection requirements and planned to seek the needed materials, including a Yin-Yang Life Soul Pill as a substitute for a Bone Regeneration and Blood Fusion Pill.
• Su Yun gave Su Qian the young Fallen Heart Flame and the Yang Xuan Array Fire secret method so academy elders could form a bond with the flame.
• Su Yun left the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower with Hai Bodong and revealed that Heavenly Flame Venerate had returned as a soul inside a Ring of Holding.
• Su Yun introduced Heavenly Flame Venerate to Hai Bodong and Xiao Yi Xian, then assigned him to guide Hai Bodong's cultivation.

Su Yun prepared to refine the Fallen Heart Flame in the System Space, where he erased most of its spirituality before beginning the dangerous process of absorbing its Heavenly Flame Origin. After swallowing the origin and containing its heat with his Dou Qi and three-colored flames, he began refining it.

• Su Yun arranged for Hai Bodong to accompany Heavenly Flame Venerate, then left the Inner Academy after instructing Xiao Yi Xian to consult Elder Hai if anything unexpected happened.
• Su Yun hid in a mountain cave and entered the System Space, where he used Spirit Transformation to erase the Fallen Heart Flame's spirituality over two days.
• Su Yun unfroze the Fallen Heart Flame, let its fire-python form collapse into a sea of flames, and then froze it again while he recovered.
• Su Yun swallowed an Earth Spirit Pill, found the Fallen Heart Flame's Heavenly Flame Origin, and released the flame from its static state.
• Su Yun swallowed the Heavenly Flame Origin and used his Dou Qi and three-colored flames to contain its scorching heat.

While Su Yun refined the Fallen Heart Flame, Xiao Yi Xian and the others faced a coordinated assault on Jia Nan Academy amid crises in the Jia Ma Empire. Su Yun broke through his Dou Emperor bottleneck, reaching the threshold of Dou Zong.

• Su Yun spent half a year refining the Fallen Heart Flame as his companions waited for his return.
• Hai Bodong and Skyfire stayed in the Jia Ma Empire to face the national war, while Xiao Yan was attacked by a Hall of Souls Protector after leaving Peace Town.

• Su Qian and the others discussed how the academy's destruction of the Black Emperor Sect had provoked the Black Corner Region alliance.
• After three more days of refining, Su Yun reached the peak of Dou Emperor and shattered his bottleneck with the Fallen Heart Flame's power.

After absorbing the Fallen Heart Flame, Su Yun broke through to peak Three-Star Dou Zong and rushed toward Jia Nan Academy after sensing a battle there. Xiao Yi Xian was fighting Old Ghost Di Mo above the Inner Academy, where she could defend herself but struggled to match his strength.

• Su Yun absorbed the Fallen Heart Flame and advanced to peak Three-Star Dou Zong over seven days.
• Su Yun examined the changes to the "Fennel Cold Art" and his four-colored flames, then left the System Space.
• Su Yun sensed a battle at Jia Nan Academy and flew toward the Inner Academy.
• Xiao Yi Xian fought Old Ghost Di Mo while dozens of Dou Emperors and Dou Wangs battled below them.
• Xiao Yi Xian traded poison attacks with Old Ghost Di Mo, but he crossed through her attacks and struck at her with his palm.
