Devouring Boundary
The next day, as the sun rose in the east, the warm sunlight broke through the morning mist, leaving golden spots of light on the earth.
Because some students were unaware that the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower had been closed, some still went to the plaza in front of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower. However, after being informed of the situation by many elders and instructors, they had no choice but to leave.
However, some curious students stood outside the square, wanting to see what was going on, so the number of onlookers grew.
However, because there were instructors present to maintain order, they could only watch from the sidelines!
After waiting for a long time, the students noticed a sound of wind breaking from the sky, and they all looked up.
Four white-haired old men descended from the sky, accompanied by five elders who followed with flapping wings. Judging from their appearance, they were at least at the level of Dou Wang).
The difference between Dou Wang and Dou Emperor can be discerned through their wings; of course, there are also those who possess Flight Dou Technique.
Those who can walk on air are undoubtedly powerhouses above the Dou Emperor level!
"When did the academy get so many Dou Zong?!"
"My God! That's Elder Wu from the Outer Academy Enforcement Squad! He's also advanced to the Dou Zong!"
"Elder Lei too!"
"That elder is so young!"
"When did the academy have such a young elder?"
Who is he?
The students below were buzzing with discussion.
"That's Elder Lin from our Alchemy Department. I heard he's a Sixth-Grade Alchemist!" a student dressed in Alchemist's robe said.
Among a group of elderly and middle-aged people, the young Lin Qing was undoubtedly very conspicuous.
"Great Elder! Elder Wu, Vice Principal, and all elders, I'm counting on you this time!"
Lin Qing bowed to the elders present.
"Haha, since Elder Lin is here, please come in!" Su Qian stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Um!"
Lin Qing nodded slightly.
As everyone entered the Black Tower, just as the elders took their positions, preparing to break the seal, Su Qian suddenly shouted to Lin Qing:
"Lin Qing!"
"Um?!"
"Be careful. If you're not confident you can refine it, then retreat first! We'll all come down with you!"
Lin Qing felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this and replied, "Understood, Great Elder!"
After a moment, Su Qian addressed the elders around him:
"Alright, everyone! Let's break the seal together!"
As soon as the words fell, all the elders and Su Qian formed a hand seal, and then more than ten streams of Dou Qi struck the Fire Well.
Immediately, the space above the Fire Well distorted, Lin Qing could sense that the seal on the black hole below had vanished. Su Qian then shouted, "Elder Lin! Enter!"
Without hesitation, Lin Qing stepped into the Fire Well.
Deep underground, in an endless Magma World, the dark red magma suddenly began to churn violently, and an extremely violent energy permeated it.
As the magma churned, it seemed as if some creature was lurking within it. Then, a wave of fire surged up from the surface of the magma, carrying with it a jet of magma. A Fire Python, its entire body obscured, almost transparent, with a head a full ten feet in size, and covered in invisible flames, burst through the magma.
"Grumble!"
Instantly, a column of blood-red magma, tens of meters wide and long, shot towards Lin Qing like a volcanic eruption.
"Oh!"
"Bang!"
Lin Qing sneered and waved his hand, scattering the pillar of magma that was spraying towards him.
Suddenly, colorful light shone brightly, and Cailin slowly appeared beside Lin Qing.
"Is this the Fallen Heart Flame?" Cailin's beautiful eyes were fixed on the Fire Python that appeared in front of the two of them.
"Um!"
Lin Qing nodded slightly.
"Grumble!"
The Fire Python, bursting from the magma, stared intently at the two who had suddenly appeared, unleashing a violent and sharp sonic wave at them before slowly retreating.
It felt an instinctive fear of the flames on Lin Qing's body, but its yearning for freedom prevented it from completely dissipating.
"You can just wait here."
Lin Qing said to Cailin indifferently.
"Um!"
Cailin nodded slightly.
Immediately, Lin Qing appeared in front of the Fire Python in a flash, and then formed a special hand seal.
"Boom!"
As the hand seals were formed, the sea of fire suddenly trembled, and then the dark light curtains connected end to end, forming a dark space in a short moment, which directly encompassed the person and the fire!
The sudden change caused Cailin's expression to shift slightly, but she breathed a sigh of relief when she remembered that it was Lin Qing who had caused it.
"Grumble!"
The Fallen Heart Flame clearly sensed the danger and immediately pounced on Lin Qing.
However, its attack missed completely. Lin Qing smiled slightly, moved, and strangely merged into the net of light, disappearing into the deep darkness.
Upon seeing Lin Qing reappear outside, Cailin stepped forward and asked, "What is this?"
"This is a protective Barrier I've set up!"
Lin Qing slowly raised her hand and took Cai Lin's smooth and soft hand, which was as smooth as mutton fat Cailin.
"Whispering sound!"
Cailin's body stiffened, her tone somewhat displeased, but then she lowered her head slightly, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes, and her heart began to beat faster and faster uncontrollably.
"This Barrier is called the Devouring Boundary. It can devour all the energy of any creature within it, including its Dou Qi, soul, and life force! I originally just wanted to try it out, but I didn't expect it to actually work!"
"However, I am still too weak right now. Once I break through to the Nine-Star Battle Saint, I will be confident that I can devour a Pocket World!"
"Once the Devouring Boundary opens, within a radius of ten thousand miles, a single thought can extinguish all life."
Lin Qing spoke softly, while Cailin listened attentively, pleased to be able to understand this young man.
The two waited quietly outside the square black curtain, admiring Lin Qing's masterpiece, and Cailin's eyes also flashed with amazement.
Upon seeing Lin Qing disappear, the Fire Python frantically attacked in all directions, but these attacks didn't even create a ripple.
To its horror, it discovered that the energy within its body was rapidly dissipating. As time passed, the Devouring Boundary slowly devoured the energy of the Fallen Heart Flame. Lin Qing was simply waiting for the perfect opportunity.
"It's almost time!"
Sensing the weakness of the Fallen Heart Flame state, Lin Qing reluctantly released the soft hand he had been playing with. Then, with a wave of his hand, ripples spread across the quiet Devouring Boundary, followed by a surge of black light that gradually faded away.
As the Devouring Boundary faded, the Fallen Heart Flame reappeared before Lin Qing. The Invisible Fire Python had disappeared, leaving only Heavenly Flames about half a zhang in size, slowly rising.
This flame appears invisible, yet anyone who sees it experiences a strange, tangible sensation; something seems to be slowly flowing within it.
Without hesitation, Lin Qing took a step forward, enveloped himself in the Heavenly Flames, and reached out to grab the ball of primordial fire.
