Chapter 167 Lord Skyfire
Through the bright little door, one can see a fiery red world, which seems to be independent in another space. It is extremely desolate. The only attractive thing is a skeleton and the transparent fire on it that emits fluorescence. It is very similar to the original fire of the Fallen Heart Flame, but the one in front of you is obviously very young, as if it had just been born.
Just as Yao Yan was about to step in, several strange figures suddenly appeared within the range of his soul perception, and they pounced towards him at a terrifying speed.
The magma around them didn't seem to pose any hindrance to them at all.
As they got closer, their bodies were completely revealed. They were completely red, the same color as the surrounding magma. If you didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to spot each other. Their red bodies were covered with red scales, and their red scaly tails, about half a meter long, swung slightly, and their bodies quickly shuttled through the magma. Even though this place was tens of thousands of meters away from the surface, the terrifying pressure didn't seem to have any effect on them.
Its soles are also extremely broad and thick, its head is round and covered with tiny scales, it has a pair of small pupils that reveal a faint ferocity, and its rather large mouth is slightly open, revealing its densely packed sharp teeth.
Its shape is a bit like the Komodo dragon in the previous life, but the one in front of him is only red... I can only say that San Ge is ecstatic.
Yao Yan did not want to provoke these lizardmen who were specifically guarding the cave of the ancient emperor Tushe. He controlled the body of the fire python that controlled the Fallen Heart Flame and drilled into the light circle. The light circle was like a door to space that swallowed him up completely.
As Yao Yan entered with the Fallen Heart Flame, the halo suddenly dissipated, as if it did not exist in this space. The lizardmen who came to attack him missed him and looked around in confusion before slowly dispersing.
Obviously, these low-level fire lizardmen do not have very high IQs, they only have hunting instincts, and they prohibit all living things from going deep underground and approaching the cave of Tushe Ancient Emperor.
Yao Yan's eyes were covered by green flames, and he could clearly see everything that happened outside. After the lizardmen left, his figure slowly emerged from the Fallen Heart Flame. At the same time, the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire that surrounded his body also slowly dissipated. The soul power between his eyebrows surged, covering this area of space, and soon touched the skeleton and the Fallen Heart Flame.
Almost when Yao Yan's soul power was about to touch it, the skeleton suddenly burst into a dazzling white light, and as the white light gradually condensed, an illusory human figure appeared in Yao Yan's sight.
The figure was dressed in a white robe, with snow-white hair and beard. He had an old face, and his plain eyes flickered with a faint brilliance. He looked at Yao Yan and the fire python crawling beside him, and a look of surprise gradually emerged in his eyes: "Fallen Heart Flame... I didn't expect that you would be subdued one day."
The old man stroked his white beard gently, his tone carrying a hint of inexplicable meaning.
After all, he died at the hands of the other party. You know, he was a genuine Dou Zun back then, and his soul power had also entered the spiritual realm. Among Dou Zuns, he was one of the stronger ones. He was also extremely talented and good at formations. He even created a "heavenly grade" fighting skill based on this.
Unfortunately, he died because of his arrogance in this regard. He wanted to contain two strange fires at the same time, which caused him to be severely injured and then besieged by the lizardmen...
"Boy, you possess spiritual realm level soul power at such a young age. This kind of talent is truly monstrous. If I am not mistaken, the green flame you put away just now is a strange fire?" The old man in white robe seemed quite familiar. He floated to Yao Yan's side and exclaimed in amazement.
After all, at such a young age he already possesses a soul at the spiritual realm level, and he has also refined a kind of strange fire. This kind of talent, even back then, was definitely one of the top geniuses.
No wonder he could survive until now, the soul level of this old fellow is not low... Yao Yan determined the soul level of Venerable Tianhuo in just a moment. With his current soul power at the spiritual realm level, he could actually feel a little oppression when facing the opponent. Obviously, the soul level of the opponent would definitely not be lower than the spiritual realm.
But it is normal, the soul power of ordinary Dou Zuns will not be bad. Dou Qi is an energy that is extremely close to spiritual energy. While practicing it, the spirit will be strengthened in all aspects and it has almost no weaknesses.
It is not uncommon for a Dou Zun to possess soul power at the spiritual realm level, not to mention that the Skyfire Zun in front of him is also a genius-level figure.
How could a person who could create such a unique martial art as the Five-Wheel Fire Separation Method be a simple person?
In the original book, this person in front of us was definitely seriously underestimated.
"The strange fire refined in my body is the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire." Yao Yan did not feel any fear towards the person in front of him and answered the other party's question softly.
"The Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire ranks nineteenth on the Strange Fire List. No wonder... when you subdued it, it should not have given birth to the spirit of strange fire. Otherwise, it would not have been so easy for you to subdue it~" Skyfire Venerable stroked his beard and said with great certainty.
"At that time, it should have been just two or three hundred years old." Yao Yan nodded and said softly.
"Boy, you don't seem afraid of what I might do to you?"
Hearing Yao Yan's calm answer, a strange look flashed in Venerable Tianhuo's eyes, and he said with some surprise.
"You must have been a powerful Dou Zun when you were alive, otherwise it would be impossible for you to create this space here. Just now when I was facing the siege of the Lizardmen, you let me in and then isolated the space from the outside world. You should not be here to cause trouble for me." Yao Yan said softly.
"Good boy, you have a good eye. It seems that you have seen quite a few Dou Zun powerful masters." Tianhuo Zun looked at Yao Yan's calm appearance and said with some surprise.
If it were an ordinary person, facing a true Dou Zun strongman, he would definitely not be able to remain so calm.
"The Fighting Saint has also seen it."
Yao Yan pretended to be cool without saying a word.
"..." Skyfire Venerable's pupils shrank, and he immediately thought of something. He couldn't help but look at Yao Yan and said, "You are not from those families, are you?"
The Dou Di family already existed when he was alive, and in that era, the Di family was quite active, with countless strong people among them, so they were not unfamiliar with others. And only that family could ensure that there would never be a shortage of Dou Shengs.
"If the family you are talking about is a family with the blood of the Dou Emperor, then it should be true." Yao Yan said softly.
"The bloodline of the Doudi... is truly enviable."
Venerable Tianhuo sighed. A cultivator with the blood of the Dou Emperor is naturally far ahead of others, whether it is talent or other factors. A cultivator with the blood of the Dou Emperor, as long as the concentration of his blood is not low, can basically reach the level of Dou Zong or even Dou Zun. The best among them can even be recommended to the level of Dou Sheng.
The gap between them is enough to make ordinary people look up to them.
"How did you fall into this state? And this Fallen Heart Flame beside me seems to have some connection with you. I can feel its connection with this place." Yao Yan asked knowingly. "Of course it is related. I was its previous owner."
The Skyfire Venerable smiled, then raised his hand and hooked it at the huge fire python, as if he wanted to hook out the real body of the Fallen Heart Flame to take a look. However, his expression soon froze, because he felt that he seemed unable to do this, because the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire chain shot out from Yao Yan's fingertips bound it tightly, and even its intelligence was suppressed.
"Hehe, boy, I don't want to snatch the Fallen Heart Flame. You can see that I still have one here." Venerable Skyfire coughed dryly, summoned the Fallen Heart Flame on his skeleton into his hand, and explained to Yao Yan.
The Fallen Heart Flame in his hand was not even the size of a human head, and the temperature it emitted was different from the Fallen Heart Flame beside Yao Yan. It was like a newborn baby, extremely tender.
Of course, even if it is immature, it is still a strange fire that has the ability to burn the sky and boil the sea.
If not for this, Venerable Skyfire would not have been in such a state.
Yao Yan said calmly: "You sent a signal to let him bring me here, it shouldn't be for saying these things."
"Of course I want to go out. Secondly, I also want to try to resurrect one or two... I thought the person who came here would be the next owner of the Fallen Heart Flame, but I didn't expect it to be a... young man like you." Skyfire Venerable didn't know how to describe Yao Yan for a moment. If it was not inappropriate, he wanted to call the other party a monster.
"It seems that I have a good affinity with Dou Zun. Including you, I will revive two Dou Zun in total. However, the strength of that one should be much stronger than yours. He was once the number one alchemist in Zhongzhou. He was also a famous Medicine Master when he was alive. It is said that he is not far from the realm of the ninth-grade alchemy master."
At this moment, Yao Yan finally revealed a smile and said softly.
"You are an alchemist? Yes, otherwise you wouldn't have such spiritual power at this age. I should have thought of it earlier." Venerable Tianhuo was stunned for a moment, then nodded and muttered something, then looked at Yao Yan with burning eyes.
"So, you should have mastered at least one method of resurrection. Could you show it to me? If it is suitable, I will pay you a satisfactory price, which will definitely not be lower than the price offered by a master alchemist. At the very least, I believe you are also interested in this Fallen Heart Flame."
Venerable Tianhuo was also a straightforward person. Hearing this, he understood what Yao Yan meant and spoke directly.
"it is good."
Yao Yan did not waste any time and threw the resurrection method he got from Lian Yao Lao to Venerable Tianhuo. This resurrection method was not afraid of others learning it. After all, the harsh conditions of the three kinds of strange fire could not be fulfilled by anyone except him who practiced the Burning Technique.
Someone like Xiao Xuan... If you have the ability to invite such a person out, there is no need to use this method of resurrection.
Ninth-grade elixirs and Dou Sheng are undoubtedly existences of another level, which is a huge gap from the entire Douqi Continent.
"Three kinds of strange fires?!"
Skyfire Venerable only took a glance, and his expression froze. He couldn't help but look at Yao Yan, and then looked at the two Fallen Heart Flames in front of him, and couldn't help but ask: "Three kinds of strange fire, are you sure you can control them? Even if my fire control skills were the best in the world, it was difficult for me to contain three kinds of strange fire in one."
“I am not afraid to tell you that the reason I ended up in this situation today is because I overestimated my own abilities and tried to refine two strange fires into my body, which eventually led to severe injuries…”
When talking about these past events, a hint of helplessness and regret appeared in his eyes.
If not for this, how could a powerful five-star Dou Zun level warrior fall to such a state and even sleep here for thousands of years.
"Since I dare to take this job, I must be confident. As long as you can afford the price, I will give you a satisfactory result." Yao Yan looked calm, without any intention of explaining, and even without the intention of revealing the Burning Decree, because the other party had no choice at all."
“It seems that I have no choice~” Skyfire Venerable was also free and easy. He smiled and directly handed the Fallen Heart Flame in his palm to Yao Yan. At the same time, he continued: “This Fallen Heart Flame is a deposit. After the matter is completed, this old man can also teach you a heaven-level fighting skill... Of course, in order to exert the power of this fighting skill to the extreme, you must first have five kinds of strange fire. But even if you have three, it is enough to exert the power of the quasi-heaven level!”
Yao Yan had no doubt about this, as Xiao Yan's performance in the original novel had already explained everything. However, compared to this fighting skill, he was more interested in the formation knowledge in the head of Skyfire Venerable. However, there was no rush for these and he could take his time.
"Let's talk outside. This ring is called the Bone Flame Ring. It is the deposit that Medicine Venerable gave me. It can nourish the soul. Please come in with this Fallen Heart Flame. I have to go out and take care of some personal matters later."
Yao Yan shook his hand and gestured.
"it is good."
Skyfire Venerable did not doubt Yao Yan, and directly turned into a wisp of green smoke and sank into the Bone Flame Ring with the Fallen Heart Flame. As he entered, his somewhat surprised voice was heard: "What a big deal, to use the material that warms the soul to create a ring..."
He seemed to have not spoken for too long, and began to send voice chat windows to Yao Yan continuously, but was directly cut off by Yao Yan. The purpose of his coming here had been achieved, and the next step was to go out and take care of the final things.
It’s time for him to take away Han Feng and his Sea Heart Flame.
Together with the Fallen Heart Flame in his hand and the Bone Spirit Cold Fire in Yao Lao's body, these three kinds of strange fire are enough to increase Yao Yan's strength to the Dou Zong level in a short period of time. After that, he can return to the Soul Clan and absorb the nutrients to be promoted to the Dou Sheng... Maybe he doesn't need to wait until the Three Thousand Flames are born.
With the help of the Soul Palace, why wouldn't it be a harm in giving it a hand?
To use Han Feng's words, the treasures of heaven and earth belong to those who are capable, so how can they be sealed up at will?
As the thought emerged in his mind, he walked into the body of the Fallen Heart Flame again, and then controlled the fire python to rush towards the top of the magma. He had no attachment to the Tushe Ancient Emperor Cave below, and did not even want to take a look at it.
If you don’t have that ability, don’t touch things of that level. Yao Yan has always been very clear about this principle.
