However, it's unclear whether it was Xiao Yan's imagination.
He always felt that, under the seal of the Netherworld Lock, the noise emitted by the Fallen Heart Flame seemed to be greatly weakened.
Meanwhile, not far behind Xiao Yan, in the sight of Yao Lao and Xiao Huohuo.
What they saw was the raging Fallen Heart Flame, which was forcibly suppressed by Xiao Yan's Martial Soul.
That Heart Flame simply couldn't break through Xiao Yan's Netherworld Lock's seal.
"Good lad!"
Seeing this, Yao Lao's face lit up with ecstasy, and he couldn't help but exclaim to Xiao Yan.
The illusory figure followed beside Xiao Huohuo, and soon stood shoulder to shoulder with Xiao Yan.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
In an instant, a series of illusory Netherworld Lock firmly sealed the Heart Flame, suspending it in the lava.
As for the surging magma and the Fallen Heart Flame itself outside, they posed no threat to them whatsoever.
"Kid, get it under control."
When Yao Lao saw that Xiao Yan had firmly controlled the Fallen Heart Flame Heart Flame, he didn't stand there dumbfounded. Instead, he led Xiao Huohuo to the side of the Heart Flame.
"Open it!"
The old man, who was fond of the spirit body, released a tremendous pressure that converged towards the Heart Flame.
Then, a cold white flame gathered from Yao Lao's fingertips, condensing into the shape of a dagger.
The Yao Lao cast a wisp of light onto the illusory form formed from the Heart Flame.
An even more violent and scorching force seemed to raise the temperature within the lava considerably.
Xiao Yan's gaze fell on that wound.
The white flames prevented the healing of the Heart Flame.
Within that Heart Flame, a small cluster of flames emerged.
"This is it."
The Yao Lao's tone became serious as he turned to Xiao Huohuo beside him and spoke.
You'll be familiar with the rest of the process.
Just like when I devoured the Green Lotus Core Flame, I will refine this wisp of Heart Flame.
However, this process...
Yao Lao was already nearing his limit due to the great battle, and after entering the body of the Fallen Heart Flame, he forcibly burned his soul to protect Xiao Huohuo.
Although Xiao Yan's arrival has made things much easier for him, this whole ordeal has once again brought him to the brink of unconsciousness.
Xiao Huohuo stared at the ethereal flame, remained silent for a moment, and then his arrogant smile returned to his lips.
"Teacher, don't worry."
Your disciple is destined to be famous throughout the continent.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Huohuo looked up at Xiao Yan beside him and said with a smile:
"You've helped me so much already, now I have to rely on myself."
Upon hearing this, the Yao Lao nodded and spoke to the two of them.
"That's right. Now that the sparks of the Fallen Heart Flame have dissipated, as long as we can hold on, the magma will pose no threat whatsoever."
If you can't get past this hurdle... staying here won't change the outcome.
The Yao Lao changed the subject and continued speaking to Xiao Yan.
"Since you've come here, it means you must have encountered an unexpected situation in the Douluo World as well."
Wasting time is not the best solution for either you or Huohuo.
As soon as Yao Lao finished speaking, he flicked his finger, and a streak of light fell into Xiao Yan's hand.
Seeing the puzzled look on Xiao Yan's face, Yao Lao smiled with a hint of relief and said:
"This contains some of my alchemy insights, as well as some Dou Technique that you should be able to use."
Next, Huohuo will focus all her efforts on refining the Fallen Heart Flame here.
Why don't you take this time to see clearly what the differences are between the Battle Through the Heavens World and Douluo?
Xiao Yan looked at the Storage Ring in his hand, not expecting Yao Lao to do this.
A look of surprise crossed his face, then he fell silent.
Thank you, senior.
Xiao Yan bowed to Yao Lao, then his gaze fell on Xiao Huohuo, his tone filled with certainty.
"It's just a mere Heavenly Flames. I'll be waiting for your good news outside."
Xiao Huohuo didn't say much, and under Xiao Yan's gaze, swallowed the Heart Flame in one gulp.
Go ahead...
Yao Lao's gaze fell on Xiao Yan, then his figure flashed and he returned to his Storage Ring, falling into a deep sleep.
As the Heart Flame was swallowed by Xiao Huohuo, the flames that had been restrained by Xiao Yan's Netherworld Lock suddenly dissipated.
A violent burst of flames instantly erupted from the spot, engulfing Xiao Huohuo entirely.
Xiao Yan watched this scene from the outside, his hand slightly raised, then lowered again.
He glanced deeply at Xiao Huohuo, whose face was contorted in pain amidst the firelight, then turned and headed back the way he had come.
During the magma incident, Xiao Yan gradually moved away from the location of Xiao Huohuo and the Fallen Heart Flame.
However, in his perception, Xiao Huohuo's soul aura had not been extinguished; it remained incredibly resilient.
Following the path he had come from, Xiao Yan returned to the bottom of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
Looking at the seal above his head, Xiao Yan suddenly froze on the spot.
When he came down, Zi Yan broke the seal and sent him down. Now, what should he do to go back up?
He can't just break the seal directly, can he?
If this seal is broken, it will likely alert everyone in the Inner Academy.
Although the Fallen Heart Flame was currently locked in a tug-of- Xiao Huohuo, Xiao Yan dared not guess how the people in the Inner Academy would react after learning that Xiao Huohuo had devoured the Heavenly Flames.
For a moment, Xiao Yan was stunned and stood there.
Xiao Yan's body slowly approached the seal.
The surging Dou Qi formed complex array patterns, isolating the entire Magma World below.
Xiao Yan placed his palm on the seal and could feel the immense power within it.
"Pfft~"
The familiar flames once again blazed from Xiao Yan's hands.
Since this Heavenly Flames Martial Soul has a special suppressive effect on the Fallen Heart Flame, he wanted to try it out to see if it would have any effect on this seal.
"..."
Seeing that the seal remained unmoved under the flames, Xiao Yan reluctantly gave up the idea of burning it through with his Heavenly Flames Martial Soul.
The pitch-black humanoid Martial Soul Martial Soul reappeared behind him, merging with his original body once more.
When Xiao Yan reached out his hand towards the seal again, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Watching himself easily pass through the sealed palm, Xiao Yan fell silent.
They swaggered through the Magma World and passed through the seal that the Inner Academy had painstakingly set up.
They stepped back into the ninth level of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
Xiao Yan stood still and glanced back at the seal below.
The Clone Martial Soul detached from his body and probed towards the seal.
Without any hindrance, they easily passed the seal.
Xiao Yan's pupils suddenly contracted as he realized an unbelievable possibility.
Perhaps my Clone Martial Soul is not bound by the formations of the Battle Through the Heavens Continent?
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's eyes immediately shone with intense light.
However, this speculation still needs further verification.
Stepping onto the ninth level, Xiao Yan looked around but didn't see Zi Yan.
After a slight hesitation, his Clone Martial Soul merged again. He concealed his aura and Xiao Xin walked towards the top of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
He didn't see a single person even after reaching the very top of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
Looking at the pitch-black night outside, Xiao Yan flashed away and left the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower without alerting anyone.
Not long after Xiao Yan left the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
Zi Yan's frail body was steadily approaching the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
Behind him, Lin Yan was still earnestly trying to persuade her.
"My dear lady, if we hadn't discovered you were missing, I don't know how long it would have taken to find you unconscious on the ninth floor."
You've just woken up, there's no need to rush over here.
Let's take a rest first.
Zi Yan walked towards the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower without saying a word. Lin Yan, who was behind her, looked helpless.
Seeing Zi Yan suddenly weakened, he could only follow behind Zi Yan, heading towards the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
