Xiao Jinchen pondered the information about the various Heavenly Flames in his mind. If he wanted to improve his strength, it was definitely not enough for him to devour the Heavenly Flames ranked lower. He had to devour the Heavenly Flames ranked higher.
Xiao Jinchen's gaze slowly shifted to the two stone pillars at the front of the Exotic Flame Plaza, and information about the two Heavenly Flames involuntarily surfaced in his mind.
"Ranked seventh on the Heavenly Flame Ranking is the Nine Nether Golden Ancestor Flame, its color being a dark blue interwoven with gold. This is a metallic Heavenly Flames with formidable explosive power. It was formed when Yan Jin, the patriarch of the Flame Clan, fused it with Volcanic Stone Flame. Its power is comparable to the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame."
"Ranked eighth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, the Red Lotus Karmic Flame is shaped like a crimson lotus flower. It is known as the Flame of Judgment of Sins, and those with evil intentions suffer double the burning damage. It is especially effective against inner demons and evil spirits."
"One is Heavenly Flames ranked seventh on the Strange Heavenly Flame Ranking Heavenly Flame Ranking, and the other is Heavenly Flames ranked eighth. If we devour them directly, we might actually be able to suddenly become a Dou Zun." Xiao Jinchen's eyes darted around as he pondered.
"Yes, it's decided then." Xiao Jinchen murmured, and with a thought, summoned the Little Dragon Man.
" Little Dragon Man, this time, just like last time, you will devour one Heavenly Flames, and I will devour one Heavenly Flames," Xiao Jinchen instructed the Little Dragon Man in front of him.
"Hmph!" The Little Dragon Man snorted coldly and said irritably, "Every time you summon me, it's never for anything good."
"You can actually talk?" Xiao Jinchen was slightly taken aback, then exclaimed in surprise.
"I could talk last time, okay?!" The Little Dragon Man pouted, quite dissatisfied.
"You can actually talk now, that makes communication much easier." Xiao Jinchen also remembered that the Little Dragon Man seemed to have been able to talk last time, but he was in a hurry to test the medicine on Gu Yuena last time and didn't pay much attention to it.
" Little Dragon Man, once I break the seal on a Heavenly Flames like last time, you can devour the Red Lotus Karmic Flame, which is ranked eighth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking. This time, I'm going to directly attempt to break through to the First Stage Dou Zun," Xiao Jinchen said with a light laugh.
"Hmm..." the Little Dragon Man muttered, "Every time you call me out, it's for work. Is this how you treat your Fire Spirit?"
"Uh..." Xiao Jinchen touched his nose awkwardly, smiled sheepishly, and said, "It's just that the situation was urgent, and look, every time I get you to do something, your strength increases rapidly, doesn't it? That's called a win-win situation, do you understand?"
"Tch." The Little Dragon Man stretched out a chubby little hand and demanded from Xiao Jinchen, "I want to eat the pill!"
"No." Xiao Jinchen glanced at the Little Dragon Man with disdain and said, "You, a spirit of Heavenly Flames, have started taking pills?"
"What do you mean! Why can't I take pills?!" The Little Dragon Man was displeased upon hearing Xiao Jinchen's words, his seven-colored eyes glaring intently at Xiao Jinchen.
"So what if I don't give it to you?" Xiao Jinchen shrugged and said, "Nothing!"
"Fine." The Little Dragon Man turned around and said, "If you don't give me the pills, I won't help you with the work."
"He's become intelligent now, not so easy to fool anymore." Xiao Jinchen couldn't help but click his tongue as he looked at the Little Dragon Man's appearance. He still preferred the Little Dragon Man before he became intelligent.
"Alright." Xiao Jinchen nodded, flicked his finger on his Storage Ring, took out a large pile of medicinal herbs and threw them on the ground, saying, "If you want to take pills, refine them yourself. Do it yourself, and you'll have plenty."
"Hmph!" The Little Dragon Man crossed his arms and said defiantly, "Fine, I'll make it myself then."
As he spoke, the Little Dragon Man opened his mouth.
"Puff!"
A ball of seven-colored flame shot out from the Little Dragon Man's mouth, instantly transforming into a seven-colored medicine cauldron that floated in mid-air.
The Little Dragon Man transformed into a seven-colored stream of light and darted straight into the seven-colored cauldron he had conjured.
The next second, a crack appeared on the surface of the medicine cauldron, and a powerful suction force swept out from it, pulling all the medicinal herbs on the ground into the cauldron. Immediately afterwards, seven-colored flames suddenly rose up from the cauldron, and the alchemy officially began.
"Forget it, this little guy's become intelligent, he's not so easy to fool anymore." Xiao Jinchen shook his head and said, "Then I'll just devour the Heavenly Flames myself."
Xiao Jinchen arrived in front of the stone pillar Entanglement with the Nine Nether Golden Ancestor Flame. He had just raised his palm to break the seal when he sensed something was wrong.
"Something's not right! The Nine Nether Golden Ancestor Flame is comparable to the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame..."
"Hiss!"
Upon thinking of this, Xiao Jinchen couldn't help but gasp.
What kind of existence is the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame? It's a terrifying flame that ranks fourth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking. It can not only burn away Dou Qi, but it can even burn through the independent space created by Dou Sheng Expert! And this Nine Nether Golden Ancestor Flame is powerful enough to rival the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame!
To devour Heavenly Flames of this level, one would need to be at least a fifth-rank Dou Zun. If the seal were to be broken now, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jinchen subconsciously took two steps back, a sullen smile appearing on his face.
"Well, in that case, I'll devour all the Heavenly Flames ranked low on the Heavenly Flame Ranking. That should solve the problem, since quantitative change leads to qualitative change." Xiao Jinchen smiled, then moved and arrived next to the Little Dragon Man's medicine cauldron.
Xiao Jinchen felt an extremely rich fragrance of pills emanating from the seven-colored medicine cauldron in front of him.
Xiao Jinchen reached out and pulled the Little Dragon Man out of the medicine cauldron.
"Ugh... Let me go!" Xiao Jinchen grabbed the back of the Little Dragon Man's collar, and he struggled incessantly, trying to break free from Xiao Jinchen's clutches.
"Help me absorb the Heavenly Flames first, or you can forget about taking any pills," Xiao Jinchen threatened.
"You scoundrel! You scoundrel!" the Little Dragon Man cursed angrily.
"Don't give me that. There are only two paths, you choose." Xiao Jinchen narrowed his eyes and threatened, "Either you obediently help me absorb the Heavenly Flames, and then I'll let you refine medicine yourself; or I'll take you back into my body right now, and you can forget about ever coming out for a breath of fresh air again."
Xiao Jinchen slightly, then sneered, "Choose."
"Damn it! There's no choice here!" the Little Dragon Man pouted, complaining.
"Then I'll take that as a yes. Discretion is the better part of valor." Xiao Jinchen chuckled, picked up the Little Dragon Man, and walked to a stone pillar, saying, "Let's begin."
Then Xiao Jinchen released the Little Dragon Man in his hand, and with lightning speed, he broke the seal on the stone pillar that Entanglement with Heavenly Flames.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
With a series of buzzing sounds, the nine Heavenly Flames broke through the seal and soared into the sky.
