The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's Extraordinary Origin! An Array and Energy Enough to Become Emperor
"My clan is a spirit-swallowing saint clan, possessing the power of devouring blood. The strength of our ancestors is comparable to that of the Supreme Immortal of the Great Thousand Immortals, but he fell in that battle. ♤💚 ➅➈ 🍟🎅"
"Under the protection of our ancestor, we discovered this unique sacred fire in the void. It possesses the ability to devour all things and can be combined with our clan's abilities, giving it the power to devour all the forces in the world."
"The sacred flame is named Nihility Devouring Flame. From this day forward, we, the Tunling Clan, shall become the Devouring Flame Sacred Clan. We will rise to prominence in the Great Thousand World and follow the Sacred God back to the Heavenly Origin Realm."
"The Great Thousand World, the Heavenly Origin Realm, will all be within the grasp of my Sacred Clan."
"The Sacred Clan leader has decreed that from this day forward, he shall be known as the Heavenly Evil God, and we shall be renamed the Evil Race or the Demon Clan."
"Hehehe, demons, how fitting. To the Great Thousand World, we are demons; we Blazing Demon Clan for them."
"."
Voices continued to rise, accompanied by countless worships.
Suddenly, an unparalleled powerhouse appeared, sacrificing himself to seal away an immense and powerful being with four pairs of eyes.
The sacred flame of the Blazing Demon Clan, Nihility Devouring Flame, was struck by an immortal aura emitted by that supreme expert, traversing numerous planes and transforming into several Juvenile Flame that scattered throughout the Great Thousand World, one of which arrived at the Dou Qi Continent.
As this Juvenile Flame grew in the void and finally gained sentience, it was approached by another Heavenly Flames, which forcibly devoured it, absorbing its energy accumulated over tens of thousands of years, and transformed into Emperor Flame, calling itself Tou She Ancient God.
A thousand years later, Tou She Ancient God did not leave the Dou Qi Continent. Instead, he chose to pass away, transforming into a coordinate, bringing a glimmer of hope to the Dou Qi Continent and gaining renewed recognition from the Great Thousand World Will.
The Nihility Devouring Flame was imprisoned on a pillar in a plaza, waiting for a destined person to devour it. During this time, its intelligence was reawakened, and it made contact with the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
"Neither of us wants to be devoured, but if the destined person foreseen by Tou She Ancient God arrives, we will surely perish."
"I don't have the power to let you out, but you can help me escape from here. I have the power to devour everything. When I'm strong enough, I'll rescue you."
The Nihility Devouring Flame Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill discussed the matter, with the latter agreeing to lend a hand but stating that it wouldn't be enough for him to act alone.
"That Tou She Ancient God is too strong; he wouldn't be weak even among Dou Emperor. I only stepped into the Half-Emperor with a wisp of my origin, and I still couldn't break through the spatial barrier of his cave," said the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill. "To help you get out, you'll need the Pure Lotus Heart Flame."
"Pure Lotus Heart Flame?" The Nihility Devouring Flame, burning with an air of mystery, looked at the flames on the pillar beside it and asked doubtfully, "Its power is far inferior to mine, and while it possesses intelligence, it hasn't yet developed consciousness. Can it help?"
"Because of its special status," replied the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
"The Purifying Lotus Demon Flame... no, the Pure Lotus Heart Flame has a special status?" Zhang Yuan's heart skipped a beat. "How is it special?"
The Nihility Devouring Flame asked this question directly.
The Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill didn't hide anything, saying, "I once heard the Tou She Ancient God mention that the Dou Qi Continent was an extremely prosperous continent in ancient times, with powerful beings Above Dou Emperor."
"Later, a great war broke out, and this continent was almost completely destroyed, leaving only the core area intact, along with the continent's most distinctive Heavenly Flame Source Qi."
"Cultivating in this plane, reaching the Nine-Turn Peak Dou Zun level, allows one to burn their soul with the Heavenly Flame Source Qi, once or three times is possible. As long as one succeeds, one can break through to the Dou Sheng level, and then continuously grow stronger, eventually becoming Dou Emperor."
"Later, about forty thousand years ago, another great war broke out. The beings Above Dou Emperor who protected this continent perished, and many Dou Emperor fell. This world no longer has any Heavenly Flame Source Qi."
"It wasn't until that Tou She Ancient God gained sentience and devoured all the Heavenly Flames in this plane that a trace of Origin Qi was discovered within the Pure Lotus Heart Flame."
"That Pure Lotus Heart Flame seems to have originated from some kind of primordial source of this plane, while your Nihility Devouring Flame comes from outside this plane."
"After absorbing the Pure Lotus Heart Flame, it would take the Tou She Ancient God tens of thousands of years to become Dou Emperor, but he unexpectedly discovered that you, who contain infinite energy in the void, saved him a lot of trouble."
Upon hearing this, the Nihility Devouring Flame let out a fierce roar.
He was a fire that grew naturally in the void, and that Tou She Ancient God was a bastard!
"The Pure Lotus Heart Flame is related to the Plane Origin. If you and she work together, and I assist you, you can both escape," said the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
The Nihility Devouring Flame agreed and attempted to influence the Pure Lotus Heart Flame with its own power, finally succeeding after many days.
With the help of the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill, Nihility Devouring Flame and Pure Lotus Heart Flame successfully escaped from the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion, but their memories were sealed by a powerful force afterward, which was clearly a contingency plan left by Tou She Ancient God.
After losing their memories, Nihility Devouring Flame and Pure Lotus Heart Flame parted ways. The former, being more powerful, began to roam the continent, eventually joining the Soul Clan and being able to devour the body of the last patriarch of the Tunling Clan, thus gaining the ability to devour bloodlines.
The Pure Lotus Heart Flame was subdued by a powerful figure who called himself the Pure Lotus Demon Saint, hence it is also known as the Pure Lotus Heart Flame Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.
Good heavens!
Zhang Yuan had witnessed quite a show, completely unexpected, yet everything seemed to make sense.
The reason why the Nihility Devouring Flame could obtain the power of the Tunling Clan Chief was because it had been worshipped as a sacred flame.
So, the Nihility Devouring Flame is the native Divine Flames of the Great Thousand World, but it was obtained by the Outer Realm Evil Clan Tunling Clan, and turned into the Devouring Flame Clan's sacred flame.
The Tunling Clan on the Dou Qi Continent must be a branch of the Outer Realm Evil Clan, or a group that invaded this plane. No wonder they were so evil, and were eventually wiped out by the combined forces of the major Great Emperor clans on the continent.
The two sides are indeed locked in a life-or-death struggle.
"So, the Pure Lotus Demon Saint really is Half-Emperor, not just boasting," Zhang Yuan thought to himself.
Ten thousand years ago, Tou She Ancient God was the strongest being below the Dou Emperor, an invincible existence in the world.
He then went into hiding for thousands of years, supposedly trying to become Dou Emperor in the martial arts world). No one knew whether he succeeded or failed until the Demonic Flame Space reappeared at regular intervals, letting future generations know that the Pure Lotus Demon Saint had failed.
Some say she is Peak Dou Saint like Xiao Xuan, while others say she is only Peak Dou Saint at the late stage of the Nine-Star level, slightly stronger than others of the same level thanks to the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.
It now appears that the Pure Lotus Heart Flame was special, helping the Pure Lotus Demon Saint reach the Quasi-Dou Emperor, just like Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill. Unfortunately, at the crucial moment, he was devoured by the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame and perished.
If he's lucky, he might become the second Dou Emperor after Tou She Ancient God.
"No wonder the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, upon seeing the remnant image of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint, said that the other party had achieved such accomplishments through his own efforts, and the Pure Lotus Demon Saint did not deny it; it turns out it was true."
Zhang Yuan's anticipation for visiting the Demonic Flame Space grew even stronger.
"Let's refine the Nihility Devouring Flame first."
"Does this mean I've become the Supreme Stage of the Devouring Flame Evil Race?"
Zhang Yuan used the True Dragon Divine Firmament Flame Nihility Devouring Flame, taking its essence and discarding its dross.
The Nihility Devouring Flame had already been refined by the Hun Tiandi and its memories erased. Furthermore, the Hun Tiandi's soul had been transformed into a pure Soul Origin and a portion of it had been devoured and refined. Therefore, the process of refining the Nihility Devouring Flame went very smoothly.
If needed, he can also differentiate the Nihility Devouring Flame, the Fallen Heart Flame, and the Mysterious Yellow Flame, making a total of four types including the True Dragon Divine Firmament Flame.
"Another method is to use the Five Wheels of Fire Technique."
"This Dou Technique can be transformed into a divine art; its power depends on the number and level of flames used."
"Um"
Zhang Yuan thought of Xun'er.
This girl has been mentioning to him lately that she "finally broke through to the Dou Sheng," the implication being quite obvious.
When she emerges from seclusion this time, she can do some things that are popular and enjoyable, and also obtain some of the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame's essence.
"Let me see where the Soul Clan's Tou She Ancient God Jade is."
"Um?"
Zhang Yuan flipped through the Hun Tiandi's memories, his expression momentarily blank, before he chuckled and shook his head, "Is this guy playing the 'the most dangerous place is the safest' trick?"
The Soul Clan's ancient Tou She Ancient God Jade, was actually placed by the Hun Tiandi in the Xiao Clan Wutan City, Jia Ma Empire, in the Northwest Continent, and it was located a thousand feet underground within the Xiao Clan's home.
If Zhang Yuan didn't know, he might have searched the entire continent and still not found it, since he possessed Emperor Realm Soul and wouldn't have misused it in the Xiao Clan.
"Sizzle."
Zhang Yuan raised his hand, tearing through space to retrieve the Tou She Ancient God Jade.
In this way, he had collected all eight pieces of Tou She Ancient God Jade, but he was not in a hurry to fuse them.
"Next, let's head to the Demon Fire Plains."
Zhang Yuan placed the last piece of Tou She Ancient God Jade into the Ancient Void Realm and slowly stood up.
Having the Emperor Realm Soul, he had already located the space where the Demon Flame would appear long before he helped Little Yan collect the four Ancient Map.
Normally, the time for the demonic fire to descend upon the world is when Twin Moons Appear Together, Nine-Star unite as one, and the Heaven and Earth Tide!
But Zhang Yuan knew where the space was, so he could naturally go there himself.
"Sizzle!"
Passing through the spatial rift.
A group of people arrived above a mountain range.
As his Emperor Realm Soul was released, Zhang Yuan quickly touched a strange spatial point, but it soon disappeared.
"It merges with heaven and earth, constantly changing; this must be due to the Heaven Refining Array."
"This Heaven Refining Array contains energy accumulated over thousands of years. It was originally used by the Pure Lotus Demon Saint to prepare for her breakthrough to the Dou Emperor, and later it was used to maintain the Demonic Flame Space and seal the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame."
"We could try to find a way to get our hands on this energy."
"It can accelerate my path to becoming Earthly Sovereign."
With a thought, Zhang Yuan looked at Zi Yan and said, "I will use my divine power to activate the Dragon-Phoenix Resonance between us!"
"Once I figure out the pattern, you and Senior Zhu Kun will make your move together."
