Obtaining the Fragmented Map

A dazzlingly brilliant flame lotus, so bright it was blinding and interwoven with four colors—green, purple, blue, and red—made Hun Wei and Black Intent's breathing stop instantly. The reason was simple: the power of this flame exceeded anything they could have imagined!

The one who had unleashed this fire lotus was naturally Xiao Yan.

What sort of power did the Buddha Fury Fire Lotus, formed by merging the Green Lotus Core Flame, Sea Heart Flame, Three Thousand Burning Flame, and Crimson Lotus Karma Flame, possess? Xiao Yan now had a direct understanding of it.

After the four flames merged, they directly annihilated all the remaining Dou Zuns of Soul Hall. The energy erupting from the center of the fire lotus was no weaker than the self-destruction of a peak nine-star Dou Zun.

Xiao Yan hovered quietly at the edge of the energy storm, his black robes snapping wildly in the chaotic currents. He spread open his palm, and the Red Lotus Star Flame, condensed from the source power of four Heavenly Flames, danced and curled around his fingertips like the gentlest of spirits.

In truth, Xiao Yan had been waiting here for a long time. The reason he had not acted immediately was that he had sensed the Three Scorpion Demons.

Three nine-star Dou Zuns—Xiao Yan was not absolutely certain he could defeat them. He was also worried that if the three realized they could not win and chose to flee, then in his current incomplete state, he might not be able to stop them.

The people from Soul Hall were bound to come sooner or later. He could simply wait for Soul Hall and the Cloud Rain Sect to fight each other, then become the oriole behind the mantis stalking the cicada. Things had indeed gone as he expected.
