As the Three Thousand Flames erupted completely, Yao Yan's soul power was instantly annihilated.
Outside, Yao Yan slowly opened his eyes, a ray of sky-blue flame rose in his eyes, feeling the pain in his soul, he smiled and said: "He has a really bad temper. He broke down after just a few words... It seems that he has a strong grudge against Danta."
As he spoke, he withdrew his hand from the dragon scales and looked at Xuan Yi beside him.
"After being sealed for so many years, it is natural for it to feel resentful, especially since it has an IQ no lower than that of humans." Xuan Yi was not surprised to hear this. He looked at the huge dragon body with some helplessness and said softly.
Over the years, Danta has been holding on to a fluke mentality, hoping that an alchemist who can be recognized by the Three Thousand Flames will appear and subdue him perfectly.
Unfortunately, this is just an unrealistic expectation. With the intelligence of the Three Thousand Flames, how could it be willing to be refined by others? Now, if one wants to refine it, one can only forcibly extract the body of the Three Thousand Flames and give it a try.
Xuan Yi looked at Yao Yan and said solemnly, "You should have felt how difficult it is to refine it. Even with the help of others and the suppression of the formation, we can only help you extract its body. The final refining depends on you!"
If Yao Yan didn't already have four kinds of strange fire in his body and had rich experience in refining strange fire, she would not have agreed to give Yao Yan this opportunity.
There is no other reason, the risk is too great!
Not worth it.
With Yao Yan's talent, his future achievement will at least be one of the three giants of Danta. If he has enough opportunities, it is very likely that he will step into the realm of Fighting Saint. It would be a real pity if such a talent was destroyed because of absorbing the Three Thousand Flames!
After all, as for strange fires, except for the few that rank high, the rest are just icing on the cake for alchemists above the eighth rank, and are not necessities.
It is really irrational to gamble your life for it.
"Aunt Xuan, I understand. I will prepare patiently until I am confident enough!" Yao Yan accepted Xuan Yi's kindness and nodded in response.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi smiled and nodded, then raised his hand to condense a silver light gate and left with Yao Yan.
Before leaving, Yao Yan also glanced at the huge Three Thousand Flames of Flame, and a flash of fiery intent appeared in his eyes. He believed that it would not be long before he would meet Three Thousand Flames of Flame again. At that time, he would tell Three Thousand Flames of Flame who is the real strong one.
"Om~"
The silver space light gate flickered slightly, and Xuan Yi and Yao Yan's figures disappeared into the star field.
Peace returned to this place again, and there was only endless purple-black flames filling every corner of the space.
……
After saying goodbye to Xuanyi, Yaoyan returned to his own courtyard. Since joining Danta, he was naturally assigned a courtyard with a beautiful environment and abundant energy from heaven and earth. As for maids and the like... Danta could also arrange them for him if he needed them.
Yao Yan sat cross-legged in the house, playing with Hunxuzi's jade token in his hand. After seeing the true form of the Three Thousand Flames today, he understood that it was impossible for him to deal with the Three Thousand Flames by himself. Even with the help of Master Feng and others, it would be useless. Unless Danta was willing to cooperate and suppress it with formations, it would be impossible to extract the true form of the Three Thousand Flames.
In the original novel, the body of Three Thousand Flames was extracted because Three Thousand Flames wanted to escape the seal and voluntarily gave up its huge body in the star field.
Otherwise, relying solely on the Dou Zun like old man Mu Gu, they would be simply helpless in the face of the Three Thousand Flames of Fire.
"I still underestimated the Three Thousand Flames..." Yao Yan thought to himself, his face slightly solemn. In the current situation, if he didn't want to wait quietly for three years to fulfill his agreement with Danta, he could only rely on the power of Hunxuzi.
After hesitating for a moment, Yao Yan suddenly grasped the jade token, and the powerful soul power between his eyebrows spread out, blocking the surrounding void, and then activated the jade token.
"Om~"
At the moment when Yao Yan's soul power sank into the jade token, it trembled instantly, and a dark flame as black as ink emerged, swallowing up all the fluctuations and energy, as if it was in another void. Along with the surging black flames, a figure with red eyes appeared in front of Yao Yan.
There was no aura or pressure, but just standing there gave people a feeling of oppression.
"Master!" Yao Yan stood up to greet him and bowed respectfully.
"Nine-star Dou Zong peak? The cultivation speed is quite fast~" Hunxuzi glanced at Yao Yan and instantly judged Yao Yan's strength. He immediately laughed. He was very satisfied that the other party could improve his strength so quickly without his support.
Compared with Yao Yan, those evildoers in the Soul Clan who are praised to the sky seem to be just so-so. It will probably be very interesting when they meet Yao Yan.
Yao Yan lowered his head obediently, allowing Hunxuzi to look at him.
Hunxuzi nodded slightly and said calmly: "You suddenly contacted me, are you in trouble?"
"Today, disciples followed the three giants of Danta to take a look at the Three Thousand Flames. Its body is extremely huge and its strength is so strong that disciples cannot deal with it now. According to Danta, they are willing to help me extract the body of the Three Thousand Flames, but I must use ten seventh-color or higher grade eight pills in exchange... Disciple has calculated that even with good luck, it will take three years!" Yao Yan said in a deep voice.
“Ten 8th-grade pills with seven or more colors? Ha, those old foxes in Danta really don’t want to do business at a loss.” Hunxuzi sneered, and then continued: “The Three Thousand Flames, your master has also taken a look at it. It has long been raised into a ferocious creature by Danta. If all the seals are released, its peak combat power will give even a half-saint a headache.”
Strange fire is different from that of humans. Their power depends on their own accumulation. The Three Thousand Flames have accumulated power in the starry sky for thousands of years, with almost no consumption during this period, which shows how much it has grown. Only Danta is rich and powerful, with many strong people, can seal it in the star field. If it were other forces, it would have exploded long ago.
After a pause, he looked at Yao Yan, his eyes flashing red, and said sinisterly: "If you don't want to wait for these three years, there is actually a way. Your master will let the people of the Soul Palace cooperate with you to unlock all the seals of the Three Thousand Flames. At that time, Dan Tower will send strong men to deal with it. With the fierceness of the Three Thousand Flames, it will definitely cause a big fuss in Shengdan City... Don't worry about Dan Tower's Dou Sheng, your master will send Dou Sheng to keep an eye on them. You just need to wait. Once the body of the Three Thousand Flames is forced out, you will join hands with the people of the Soul Palace to take it away... Unfortunately, there are many seals set up in the small Dan Tower, otherwise your master really wants to rob Dan Tower's treasure house as well!"
"Teacher, isn't the noise too loud?" Yao Yan said with some concern.
“My dear disciple, you may not know what the Soul Clan means… Remember, you are my disciple, Hun Xuzi. You don’t have to worry about anything in the Douqi Continent. The so-called Soul Palace is nothing more than a dog that my clan keeps in the outside world, hehehe~”
Hunxuzi laughed strangely, his voice was arrogant and indifferent, revealing his attitude of treating everything as straw dogs.
"Everything will be up to the teacher~" Yao Yan smiled faintly and said with a bow.
At this moment, he did not feel any reluctance in his heart, because he and Yao Lao, Dan Ta and others were not the same kind of people. Once the bloodline of the Soul Devouring Clan was exposed, only the Soul Clan could protect him. If even the Soul Clan was hostile to him, then the whole world would be his enemy and there would be no place for him to stay.
Although the daily life with Yao Lao and others is very comfortable and warm, the dream will eventually wake up one day. If you want to become stronger, you have to give up some things. No one can have everything.
"Nice look~" Hunxuzi was very satisfied with Yao Yan's eyes, and he admired Yao Yan's agreement without hesitation. A strong man must behave like a strong man. If he always hangs out with ants, he will eventually turn himself into an ant.
He continued, "When things here are over, I will personally take you back to the Soul Clan. With your strength, you don't need to continue training in the outside world!"
"Okay!" Yao Yan nodded in response.
Hunxuzi nodded, and his body turned into a flame and sank into the jade token.
Yao Yan clenched his palm holding the jade token slightly, his eyes were slightly cold, and all the emotions in his heart were suppressed by him. Morality, bottom line, family affection... Only when you are alive are you qualified to discuss these. When will the weak be qualified to enjoy these? Do you expect those strong people who can kill you with a slap in the face to sympathize with you?
The strong and the weak never sympathize with each other.
As for waiting for three years... he was afraid that he couldn't wait that long. The softness and kindness of the weak have never been worth mentioning.
"We have to go our separate ways eventually~" Yao Yan suddenly felt fortunate that Yao Lao and the others chose to remain in seclusion. If they all came out, he might really have a headache, because if he really took action against them, he might not be able to do it.
Yao Yan withdrew the soul power that covered the surroundings and prepared to go to Shengdan City to increase the price of the reward. He needed to refine the pill as soon as possible.
……
……
Zhongzhou, Northern Territory.
Soul Palace Heavenly Palace.
Several terrifying auras suddenly emerged from a magnificent hall located deep in the mountains. Just a few of the auras that were revealed caused the energy of heaven and earth to pause, as if it could not withstand the pressure.
As a figure appeared on the high platform, dozens of figures around him stood up and saluted: "Palace Master!"
"A disciple of a master in our clan wants to seize the Three Thousand Flames of Dan Tower, and needs the cooperation of the Soul Palace. The deputy palace master and several Heavenly Masters will go there to help him unlock the seal of the Three Thousand Flames of Dan and bring the Three Thousand Flames of Dan back to our clan." The middle-aged man on the high platform slowly opened his eyes, his calm eyes showed no emotion, and he said lightly.
"Palace Master, do you want to make things bigger? There are many alchemists in Danta~" The deputy palace master was a gloomy-looking man. He asked in a low voice.
"Don't go too far. For now, we should just lie low. It's not time to go to war with Danta yet... If that adult hadn't asked us personally, I wouldn't agree!" Hun Mie Sheng shook his head slightly and said calmly.
We have to distinguish the priorities. The Soul Palace has not yet completed the clan's major plans, so everything should naturally be based on the original plan. For dirty work like this, unless Hunxuzi personally asks for it, Hunmie Sheng will definitely not care.
After all, Hunxuzi is the chief alchemist of the Hun clan. If he wants to improve his strength, it depends on the other party's attitude.
To reach a level above that of a Douluo Saint, each small step up requires a massive amount of energy. It would take too long to accumulate through self-cultivation, and the unit of measurement would be hundreds of years. If one wants to skip this process, one can only rely on ninth-grade elixirs. However, the number of ninth-grade alchemists in the world is really too small, and they are all at odds with the Soul Clan. Those who understand will understand.
This also makes Hunxuzi's status in the Hun clan transcendent and almost irreplaceable.
"That's really a pity~" said the Great Heavenly Venerable dimly.
"There are plenty of opportunities. There is no need to keep an eye on Danta. There are also many alchemists in the outside world... It's a pity that we can't take action against the Medicine Clan. There are really many alchemists in that place~" A Tianzun sighed. With their strength reaching this level, there are not many secrets in this world. Naturally, the Emperor Clan will not be unfamiliar with them.
"We will take action against them sooner or later!" said another Heavenly Master in a cold voice, seeming to dislike the Medicine Clan very much.
Hun Mie Sheng did not stop the few people from communicating. The Soul Palace was originally a lackey raised by the Soul Clan, specializing in doing dirty and tiring work. It was the most notorious force in the entire Douqi Continent. Even the major imperial clans were extremely repulsive to it and even secretly supported Danta.
The several major imperial clans have always been like this. They never take action personally and live in their own realms, aloof from the world.
"Everyone, get ready. Try to control the noise as much as possible. For those above the level of Douluo Saint, it is best not to take action if you can. This rule cannot be broken at least for now!" Hun Mie Sheng interrupted everyone's chatter and warned in a deep voice.
Once a Douluo Saint takes action, the commotion will be too big, and even the major imperial clans will pay attention, which will be very troublesome.
"Understood. I will keep a close eye on those old guys in Danta!"
"Count me in, I haven't chatted with them in a long time, hehe~"
For a moment, the whole hall was like a ghost cave, with strange laughter coming one after another.
……
While the Soul Palace was preparing, Yao Yan also collected the necessary medicinal herbs. Being in Shengdan City, as long as one could afford a few, there was almost no medicinal herb that could not be purchased. Even some nearly extinct medicinal herbs could be bought here.
"The magic core of the eighth-level Mysterious Ice Toad King, the Life-Severing Grass, the Yin-Yang Life-Destroying Fruit... the medicinal materials for refining the Seven Absolute Pills have finally been collected!" Yao Yan looked at the medicinal materials in front of him and sighed in his heart.
The Seven Deadly Pills, an eighth-grade high-level elixir, is made from seven materials with extremely yin properties. It can cut off all life, including energy, strange fire... It is a kind of elixir specially used to assist in cultivation or refining strange fire, and can restrain the immortal property of the Three Thousand Flames.
"Let's start~" Yao Yan casually threw the refined herbs into the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron. As the sky-blue flames rose, the precious herbs turned into crystal droplets, exuding waves of energy that crashed into the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron.
Yao Yan's expression remained unchanged as he concentrated on extracting them.
Time seemed to speed up at this moment... (End of this chapter)
