Seeing Yao Yan being taken away by the Palace Master, the Dou Zuns present had no reason to get entangled with the strong men of Danta, and they tore through space and left one after another. In this regard, the people of Danta did not try to stop them. The strength of those Soul Palace Tianzuns was not weak, and it was really difficult to keep them.

What's more, there is the Soul Palace's Douluo watching nearby. If they are really pushed to that point, the Soul Palace's Douluo will not stand idly by.

This is also the reason why major powers rarely go to war.

Both sides have strong men above the level of Dou Sheng in charge. Unless it is necessary, neither side will engage in a fight to the death, especially if the strong men at the Dou Sheng level go into an all-out war. The consequences of this cannot be compensated by a Three Thousand Flames.

Obviously, Danta had no choice but to swallow the loss this time.

Yao Lao looked at the direction where Yao Yan left, his expression kept changing, but in the end he said nothing. He was not strong enough, and any words he said would seem extremely ridiculous. If the Great Elder of Xiaodanta had not taken action just now, he might have been suppressed by the Deputy Master of the Soul Palace, not to mention the extremely mysterious Master of the Soul Palace.

Xuan Yi saw the change in Yao Lao's expression and wanted to comfort him, but she didn't know what to say. She knew very well what Yao Chen expected of Yao Yan. For her, he even gave up his previous freedom, chose to join Danta, and was even willing to owe her a favor. This shows how important Yao Yan was in his heart.

"Don't worry, I'm fine..." Yao Lao noticed Xuan Yi's eyes and comforted him. He paused and laughed at himself: "I'm used to it~"

Xuan Yi looked at Yao Lao with some heartache. She and Yao Chen had known each other since they were young, so she naturally knew what Yao Lao's phrase "get used to it" meant.

Xuankongzi, Tianleizi and others also gathered around at this moment. Looking at Yao Lao's gloomy expression, they held back the words they wanted to ask. Yao Yan was a member of the Soul Clan, and Yao Lao obviously didn't know that. Moreover, the mental blow he suffered was undoubtedly greater than that of anyone present.

As for the Three Thousand Flames... this strange fire cannot be tamed. Since Yao Yan has set his sights on it, just take it away. This will also solve a hidden danger for Danta.

Compared to what his teacher Hunxuzi did, Yaoyan seemed to be relatively "merciful".

"I didn't expect that his teacher was actually Hunxuzi!" Xuankongzi was silent for a long time before he spoke to break the silence. His tone was a little cold. After all, Hunxuzi killed the previous master of Danta and was a mortal enemy of Danta.

Tian Leizi didn't care about these things. He stared at Yao Chen seriously and asked in a serious tone, "Didn't that kid reveal anything beforehand?"

"Preconceived ideas... I thought he was a member of the Medicine Clan from the beginning. The foundation-building technique he practiced was one of the three core foundation-building techniques of the Medicine Clan, and it was also the technique I practiced when I was young. So I didn't doubt it. To be honest, I still can't believe it until now. That guy couldn't have been plotting against me and everyone in Danta from the very beginning, right? This is unrealistic!" Yao Chen explained. Rather than believing that everything was Yao Yan's calculation, he would rather believe it was a coincidence.

It couldn't be that Yao Yan had been eyeing the Burning Decree and the Bone Spirit Cold Fire from the beginning, and later on set his sights on Danta's Three Thousand Flames of Flame, and had been plotting all along, right?
Unless that kid Yao Yan has the ability to predict the future.

But if he really had such ability, why would the Soul Clan let him out? With the strength and status of his teacher Hun Xuzi, if he wanted to seize these things, he could just ask. Why would he have to do it himself? Moreover, the relationship between Yao Yan and Cai Lin and others does not seem to be a show.

Yao Lao believed that he could see this point.

Thinking about what happened in the past, he became more certain of his judgment.

After hearing what Yao Lao said, everyone felt that there were more and more mysteries surrounding Yao Yan. His teacher was obviously Hun Xuzi, and his talent in cultivation and alchemy was extremely extraordinary, but he came out alone to gain experience, and even pretended to be a member of the Yao clan, contacted Yao Lao, and finally entered the Dan Tower to obtain the Three Thousand Flames.

If Danta had not made the request and cooperated with him to refine the Three Thousand Flames from the beginning, would he have continued to lie dormant?
Thinking of this, Xuan Kongzi and others couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If Yao Yan really continued to hide, after a few decades, when he became one of the three giants of Danta, or even the future tower master, it would be a lot of fun!

At this moment, an old figure came into everyone's sight. It was Lin Mo, the great elder of Xiaodan Pagoda, who was also the strong man who had just fought with the deputy master of the Soul Palace.

"Great Elder!"

When everyone saw the person coming, they all bowed to him, including Yao Lao.

Lin Mo waved his hand and said in a low voice: "Go downstairs to appease everyone. This matter ends here... In the future, all disciples who join Danta, especially those with extraordinary talents, must be strictly examined and their backgrounds must be investigated clearly. This can happen once or twice, but not again and again!"

Obviously, Yao Yan's incident also made Lin Mo feel very disgusted. Who could have thought that Yao Yan was Hunxuzi's disciple? When he thought about how he had been very optimistic about him and even gave the Taixuan Sutra to him, his mood that had been there for thousands of years could no longer be held back!

"Yes!" Xuan Kongzi and others bowed in response.

Lin Mo looked at Yao Lao, the coldness in his eyes eased a little, and he nodded and said, "Yes, you are only one step away from becoming a Dou Sheng... Follow me, the ancestor wants to see you!"

Lin Mo's words undoubtedly shocked everyone. Apparently, no one had expected that the mysterious Danta Patriarch would choose to summon Yao Chen.

Yao Lao was also stunned. He was actually quite curious about the ancestor of Danta who had only appeared in rumors, so he did not hesitate and nodded in agreement. Now that he had joined Danta, it was naturally impossible for him to choose to quit because of Yao Yan's incident.

Debts of favor are the hardest to repay, and he owes Xuan Yi too much!
Lin Mo raised his hand and tore open the space, disappearing on the spot with Yao Chen. The two soon came to a void space, in which there was only a white-haired old man holding a cane. His whole body exuded the smell of decay, like an ordinary old man with one foot half in a coffin.

This old man was obviously the mysterious ancestor of Danta. His eyes were extremely vicissitudes, as if he saw through everything in the world.

"Ancestor!" Lin Mo bowed and saluted the old man. Although he was now the Grand Elder of Xiaodan Pagoda and had a very high status, he was still just a junior in front of the man in front of him.

Yao Lao also bowed in greeting.

"I paid attention to you hundreds of years ago. Unfortunately, you were free-spirited and loved freedom, so you were not suitable to be the successor of Danta... But now, you have changed a lot. It seems that you have experienced a lot over the years." The old man of Danta stroked his white beard and said slowly.

Yao Lao was a little surprised when he heard this, and then he bowed and said, "I don't deserve such high regard from you, senior."

"Are you interested in taking over the position of the leader of Danta? This position has been vacant for hundreds of years." The ancestor of Danta looked at Yao Lao calmly and said.

"?!" Yao Lao was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "I have just joined Danta not long ago, and I don't have this prestige. What's more, the position of Danta's tower master should be selected from the three giants, and I don't have this qualification!"

"Strength is the best qualification. With your talent, you will be able to catch up with me in the future. As for the others..." The Danta Patriarch shook his head, obviously not optimistic about the others. For example, Lin Mo beside him, he had practiced for nearly a thousand years, and his strength had only reached the level of a two-star Dou Sheng. After reaching the level of a two-star Dou Sheng, he had no further progress and his potential was almost exhausted. Unless he used a ninth-grade elixir to top it up, this would only allow him to increase his rank by one or two stars at most. It was enough to be an elder, but it was obviously too far away to fight against the Soul Palace.

If the tower master had not been killed by Hunxuzi back then, Danta would not have to rely on him as its ancestor to keep things going!
"Can……"

Yao Lao wanted to refuse, but before he could say anything, he heard the old man Danta continue to say: "The child taken away by the Soul Palace Master must be very important to you, right? If you want to find him back, strength is indispensable. I can help you quickly improve your strength and reach a level that can compete with him within 20 years. How about it?"

Yao Lao was silent. He knew that once he agreed, he would have to pay for it with his entire life. There is no free lunch in this world, and there is no good thing without reason.

Half an hour passed.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I have already joined Danta, so I will naturally follow your instructions!"

"This is not coercion, just an exchange. I never like to force others." Patriarch Danta said lightly, then raised one hand. After a moment, a drop of golden blood with misty air floated out from his fingertips.

As soon as he appeared, a strong medicinal fragrance spread out. The fragrance was extremely mellow and contained unimaginable energy. Just after taking a breath, Yao Lao felt that he was one step closer to becoming a Fighting Saint. Even the cells in his body were active and his vitality was growing.

This feeling was almost indescribable, and it also reminded him of a rumor.

It is said that the mysterious ancestor of Danta was transformed from a ninth-grade profound elixir!
This rumor turned out to be true!

“This is the essence that I have condensed over the past hundred years… It is no longer useful to me, but it is enough for you to easily break into the Fighting Saint level, or even step into the two-star or even three-star level. What level you can reach depends on your own luck.” Patriarch Danta glanced at it and handed the golden blood to Yao Lao.

As the golden blood flowed out, the old body of Patriarch Danta quickly decayed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his vitality dissipated.

"Ancestor?!" Lin Mo was also shocked when he saw this scene.

Yao Lao felt that the golden blood in his hand became extremely hot, and for a moment he wanted to return it to the other party.

"It's okay, I just started the next reincarnation..." said the old man Danta calmly, then looked at Yao Lao and continued: "Taking it is equivalent to taking over Danta. Take good care of it for me."

As the words fell, the body of Patriarch Danta completely decayed and then began to dissipate, like a cloud of dust, disappearing in front of the two men. With their strength, they couldn't even detect how the other party left, as if he had really passed away like an old man.

Lin Mo did know something. He watched the other party disappear with a bit of helplessness in his eyes. If the ancestor didn't play this game of life and death, Danta wouldn't be so conservative. But the other party never cared about anything and would only take action when Danta was facing life and death.

Then he looked at Yao Lao and said softly: "Don't waste the kindness of the ancestor. Danta will still need you in the future!"

He is old and knows the limits of his potential. Even if the golden blood in front of him is given to him, it will not be able to play the greatest role. He can even only use it as energy to break through the bottleneck of his realm. It is far less valuable than the one refined by Yao Lao.

After all, the other party is young enough and talented enough. Once he overcomes the bottleneck of the Fighting Saint, his future achievements will definitely be higher than his.

Yao Lao was silent for a moment, then bowed to Lin Mo. He knew that he needed this drop of golden blood, and he also needed to increase his strength as quickly as possible. Only in this way would he be qualified to talk to the Soul Palace and even the Soul Clan in the future!

He didn't want to experience being treated like an ant and brushed aside again!

……

……

In the huge and magnificent palace, countless chains connected the souls of powerful men, extracting the essence of their souls into the central column. From time to time, wailing sounds were heard, making the entire palace gloomy.

Yao Yan glanced at the surrounding environment and then looked at the middle-aged man in front of him.

The man was wearing a black robe, with a handsome and resolute face. There was a wisp of black flame rising from his palm. After a moment, it slowly extinguished. Then he put his hands behind his back. There was no pressure from any strong man around him. He was just like an ordinary person. He smiled at Yao Yan and said, "Do you need help? The Three Thousand Flames in your body are not easy to deal with."

"I don't need it for now. Palace Master, please prepare a quiet secret room for me. I need to go into seclusion for a while to completely refine it!" Yao Yan had no intention of chatting with the other party at the moment. The Three Thousand Flames in his body were rioting just as the other party said. If it weren't for his soul power reaching the heavenly level and the dragon seal, he wouldn't be able to stand here and talk at this moment.

Upon hearing this, Hun Miesheng raised his hand and took Yao Yan to his own secret room: "This place is absolutely safe, you can refine the Three Thousand Flames without worry."

"Thank you, Lord!"

Yao Yan bowed, then sat down cross-legged and began to compete with Three Thousand Flames for control of his body. With his soul realm, it was only a matter of time before he defeated Three Thousand Flames. As he let go completely, purple-black flames instantly gushed out of his pores, turning him into a man of fire.

However, soon, an even larger sky-blue flame emerged from his body, suppressing all the gushing purple-black flames.

As the two flames intertwined, terrifying temperatures swept through the entire secret room.

"...Interesting~" When Hun Mie Sheng saw this scene, a hint of interest emerged in his calm eyes, and he whispered that at this moment he had some understanding why Hun Xuzi valued this kid so much. The number of strange fires in a single body was enough to interest a Douluo Saint.

What's more, his soul realm is not low, combined with his age... With this talent, even in the Soul Clan, only a few people can match him.

Thinking of what Hunxuzi had said to him before, he couldn't help but feel moved.

It seems possible to support this boy to become the young patriarch! (End of this chapter)
