Nihility Devouring Flame

Just as you were preparing the items for the Space Trade Fair, the people you sent out returned.

Although the Flame Clan, Thunder Clan, and Ancient Clan were unharmed, each of the three clans had a traitor from the Hun Clan who stole their respective Tou She Ancient God Jade. The three clans are currently investigating the traitor, and the situation is in complete chaos.

At this moment, Hun Xuzi of the Hun Clan and Soul Hall Master Hun Miesheng appeared in Saint Pill City with several subordinates.

Upon encountering Hun Xuzi, the traitor who had killed the previous leader of the Pill Tower, the people of the Pill Tower were filled with righteous indignation.

However, both Hun Xuzi and Hun Miesheng were truly formidable; the former possessed the strength of Seven-Star Dou Saint, while the latter was at the level of Five-Star Dou Saint, and they boasted that they would destroy the Pill Tower today.

Just then, a cowherd with a blue ox appeared in Saint Pill City.

The shepherd boy appears ordinary, but his true identity is the Pill Tower Ancestor, possessing the strength of Six-Star Dou Saint. His true form is a Ninth-Grade Mysterious Pill, and he enjoys seeking out pregnant women carrying stillborn fetuses, entering the fetus's body, and ultimately being born and growing as an infant.

Both Hun Xuzi and Hun Miesheng were surprised to see the shepherd boy appear.

[The Pill Tower Ancestor confronted Hun Xuzi, while you, along with Cai Lin, Xiao Yi Xian, Feng Qing'er, and others, attacked Hun Miesheng and his group.]

[They had the advantage in numbers. Apart from Hun Xuzi, Hun Miesheng and others fell one after another, and the Pill Tower Ancestor was severely injured by Hun Xuzi.]

Hun Xuzi is powerful, but your Pill Tower has a numerical advantage, making this a difficult battle.

Just then, it got dark!

Endless black flames seeped out from the void, engulfing the entire Saint Pill City and sealing off space.

To your astonishment, you discover that this is the Nihility Devouring Flame, ranked second on the Heavenly Flame Ranking.

Hun Xuzi laughed as he revealed his true purpose: to obtain the last piece of the Tou She Ancient God Jade, and incidentally, to compensate for the Soul Hall's deficiency in collecting souls.

[Hun Miesheng was already very strong, but Nihility Devouring Flame was even stronger, and it had already taken human form.]

[You borrowed the Life Spirit Flame of Elder Shennong, blasted a gap, and used the Dragon Soaring Technique to escape the Pill Tower with some people.]

However, outside the Pill Tower, Four Demon Saints of the Hun Clan guard the area, each possessing the strength of Late-Stage Seven-Star Dou Saint.

[Simulation ended.]

[Simulation Evaluation: Ambush from Ten Sides]

The Hun Clan is powerful and has been planning for many years, far surpassing the strength of the other factions in Central Plains.

Xiao Yan was truly shocked. He never expected that there was Hun Clan after the Soul Hall, and that the Hun Clan was so powerful!

However, the gains this time were truly substantial.

The Heavenly Flames that they had been searching for for many years without success in the simulation was actually possessed by many Ancient Clan.

Among them, the Ancient Clan possesses the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, the Flame Clan has four Heavenly Flames, the Yao Clan has two Heavenly Flames, and the Hun Clan possesses at least one Nihility Devouring Flame.

In addition, the Life Spirit Flame on the Heavenly Flame Ranking is in the hands of Elder Shennong, Ninth-Rank Alchemist.

Although the Dou Qi Continent is vast and boundless, with only one instance of each of the two strange Heavenly Flames, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame and the Nihility Devouring Flame, and all others existing in duplicate, finding them is no less difficult than obtaining them from the Ancient Clan.

[Simulated Rewards: Elemental Spirit Eyes, Illusion-Piercing Eye, Emperor Flame Divine Eyes.]

Xiao Yan exclaimed in surprise; the rewards this time were all eye-related items.

Of the three rewards, the first grants the power to perceive and control natural elements, while the second allows one to easily see through illusions, identify an opponent's weaknesses, and launch powerful attacks.

The latter is similar to the Emperor Flame Immortal Armor, both being supplements to the Flame Mantra Technique.

Compared to the first two, which only require comprehension to unlock the eye's abilities, the last one requires extremely high levels of study and a great deal of Heavenly Flames to unleash its power.

However, since Xiao Yan has cultivated the Flame Mantra and understands the locations of various Heavenly Flames, he would naturally choose the Emperor Flame Divine Eyes as the better option.

Besides possessing the fire attribute, Heavenly Flames may also possess attributes such as ice and poison. As the number of Heavenly Flames collected increases, they may eventually include the effects of Elemental Spirit Eyes and the Illusion-Piercing Eye.

Having chosen the third option as his reward, Xiao Yan began receiving information from the Emperor Flame Divine Eyes.

It took Xiao Yan a while to realize that the Emperor Flame Divine Eyes was inspired by the Green Lotus Core Flame.

After merging with the Green Lotus Core Flame, his eyes underwent a slight mutation, allowing him to see things that outsiders could not.

Xiao Yan had some understanding of this. In the simulation, he had fused with the Green Lotus Core Flame and was able to see the sealed Fallen Heart Flame, which was invisible to many people in the Jia Nan Academy.

After obtaining the Emperor Flame Divine Eyes, Xiao Yan did not immediately begin cultivating.

In the simulation just now, he was almost Dou Sheng, but the Hun Clan has existed for a long time and has not only accumulated many Dou Sheng Expert, but they are also the best among Dou Sheng.

After reviewing the simulation twice, Xiao Yan pondered for a while, then his eyes showed a look of sudden realization.

The root of the problem likely lies in dealing with Old Man Mu Gu, who came to Pill Tower to cause trouble, which significantly altered the Soul Hall's plans.

Although he quickly broke through to become Ninth-Rank Alchemist by leveraging the resources of the Pill Tower, he also gained great fame, disrupted Old Man Mu Gu's plans, and aroused the Soul Hall's vigilance.

The failure of the plan in the Soul Mountain Range led the Soul Hall to devise a series of new plans.

The first to attack were the Great Heavenly Venerate and the Saint Hun Qing, among other powerful figures, who were launching an attack on the Pill Tower as a diversionary tactic; while the Soul Hall's Deputy Hall Master's attack on the Starfall Pavilion was a strategy of waiting in ambush.

However, the deputy hall master of the Soul Hall did not expect the Dragon Soaring Technique to be so powerful. Even though he was a Three-Star Dou Saint, he could not catch up with someone who was not yet Half-Saint.

Xiao Yan raised his hand and stroked his chin, pondering. "Ever since the death of the Soul Hall's deputy hall master, the Hun Clan should have started using the Soul Hall as a pawn and a smokescreen, using the destruction of the Soul Hall to allow them to quietly wipe out the three Ancient Clan Spirit, Stone, and Medicine."

In the end, the souls of all the Alchemist Pill Tower were enough to equal the profits of the Soul Hall.

Having figured out some of the issues, Xiao Yan gave a slightly bitter smile. It turned out that even ancient powerful clans like the Flame Clan, Thunder Clan, and Ancient Clan had been infiltrated by spies from the Hun Clan.

The Hun Clan is far more powerful than just physically strong; they have been planning for many years. It is unknown whether they have any other arrangements.

Xiao Yan took a deep breath. He hadn't figured out what to do next yet, but there was one thing he was sure of.

If he can master the Emperor Flame Divine Eyes, he might be able to try and expose the spies within the Ancient Clan Ancient Clan once he arrives.

Among the Ancient Clan, only the Ancient Clan has the strength to contend with the Hun Clan. Only by maintaining the stability of the Ancient Clan can we prevent the Hun Clan from obtaining all the Tou She Ancient God Jade.

Clearing his mind of all distractions, Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the bed, his hands forming the unique cultivation technique of the Emperor Flame Divine Eyes, mobilizing the Bone Spirit Cold Flame within his body to strengthen his eyes.

As the incantation was activated, a cool sensation originating from the Bone Spirit Cold Flame quietly emerged and slowly flowed along the meridians around Xiao Yan's eyes.
