Soul Palace, Heaven Palace.

After Yao Yan left the Nine Netherworld Python Clan's residence, he relied on the spatial coordinates left by Hun Mie Sheng to teleport over and appeared in the gloomy and silent palace. As soon as he appeared, the familiar scene came into his sight. Countless souls of strong men were bound in cages. They were connected by pitch-black chains, which extracted the essence of their souls and injected them into the mysterious black pillar in the center.

He did not restrain his aura. As soon as he appeared, he alarmed Hun Mie Sheng who was in charge of the place. With a strong aura locking over him, a middle-aged man in dark color appeared in front of Yao Yan.

"Young...Young Clan Leader?!" Hun Mie Sheng looked at the person who came, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and at the same time, a barely perceptible look of horror emerged in the depths of his eyes.

Because Yao Yan's aura had obviously increased significantly, and was even too strong, he could even feel a vague sense of fear... It was an instinct from the body, as if facing a being of a higher status.

He had only felt this kind of fear from the clan leader and a few elders. Even Yao Yan's master, Hunxuzi, was far inferior to him.

How could this kid's strength change so much? !

Hun Mie Sheng was full of doubts and felt it was a little unbelievable. After all, it was he who sent Yao Yan to the soul world. At that time, Yao Yan was still a little guy who could be crushed to death at will. As a result, after more than ten years, the other party had grown to this point!

This growth rate has exceeded Hun Mie Sheng's comprehension. When could one advance so quickly above the Douluo Saint? Even the Soul Clan's patriarch back then was not so exaggerated.

"Long time no see, Palace Master." Yao Yan smiled slightly and said softly.

"...What is the current strength of the young clan leader?" Hun Mie Sheng couldn't help but ask. There was no way, he couldn't suppress that emotion at all. It was estimated that even the powerful Dou Sheng-level people in the world would not be able to remain calm if they knew about Yao Yan's growth process.

"Middle stage of six-star Douluo...but due to some opportunities, his soul realm has already broken through to the emperor realm." Yao Yan did not hide his own strength and spoke the truth.

When Hun Mie Sheng heard this, his expression froze and he fell into silence for a moment.

Without him.

Yao Yan's growth rate has exceeded everyone's imagination. Even Hunxuzi, who cultivated Yao Yan, probably never thought that Yao Yan could grow so fast. At this moment, Yao Yan has completely escaped from Hunxuzi's control and has reached a level where he is independent enough to even have a unilateral conversation with the Hun clan leader!
Hun Miesheng's gaze towards Yao Yan changed for a moment, and his attitude unconsciously lowered a bit, his tone became more respectful: "Congratulations to the young clan leader for his great progress in cultivation!"

"Palace Master, you are too polite. If it weren't for your help in the past, I would not have grown so fast." Yao Yan has a good impression of Hun Mie Sheng. In the original novel, the other party might be a big villain, but in Yao Yan's opinion, Hun Mie Sheng's ability is still quite good.

Unfortunately, Hun Mie Sheng should not have touched the sub-fire of Void Devouring Flame. That thing is not something that ordinary people can touch.

"Young Clan Leader, you are too polite... I wonder if there is anything you need when you come to the Soul Palace this time?" Hun Mie Sheng felt the closeness in Yao Yan's tone, and his expression relaxed a little. He asked softly.

"I want the Soul Palace to help me find out two pieces of information. One is the space trade fair, and the other is the ancient Bodhi tree!" Yao Yan said slowly.

"If it's these two pieces of news, Young Clan Leader doesn't need to wait. I know it very well." Hun Miesheng's brows relaxed and he chuckled, "The Space Trade Fair is a large-scale trading venue in Zhongzhou. It is quite famous and is jointly controlled by Dixing Sect, Kongxuan Sect and Jianbao Mountain. These three sects are usually not well-known in Zhongzhou, but the strength of the three sect leaders has reached the Dousheng level, especially the leader of Kongxuan Sect, whose strength has reached the peak of the two-star Dousheng level."

"Tell me the locations of the three sects. I want to pay them a visit." Yao Yan said calmly. He didn't have time to attend any auction. In the original novel, the remaining map of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire was in the hands of the three major sects, and it appeared in the recent period. In this case, he would just go and ask for it directly.

"?!" Hun Miesheng was a little surprised and asked curiously, "Could it be that these three sects have offended the young patriarch?"

"I accidentally heard a piece of news that these three sects seem to have a fragmentary map of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire. I plan to take a look." Yao Yan stated his goal directly with a calm expression. With his current strength, he was not worried that Hun Mie Sheng would have any other ideas, not to mention that it was only a fragmentary map that had not been confirmed.

"So that's how it is..." Hun Mie Sheng's eyes flashed slightly, and he roughly understood what Yao Yan meant. He also knew something about the martial arts that Yao Yan practiced. Now Yao Yan possessed ten kinds of strange fires. Ordinary strange fires obviously had no attraction to Yao Yan. Only the Pure Lotus Demon Fire could make the other party interested. And with Yao Yan's current strength, it should not be a problem for him to subdue the Pure Lotus Demon Fire.

However, when he thought of the scene after Yao Yan subdued the Pure Lotus Demon Fire... his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a bit, because with Yao Yan's current strength, once he obtained the Pure Lotus Demon Fire, his strength would definitely increase by one to two stars.

This kid really wants to take over the position of clan leader? !
"Young Clan Leader, actually the incomplete map is not very useful. We in the Soul Clan already know the location of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire very clearly. It appears once every thousand years, and each time it appears it attracts a large number of powerful people. It will only be a few years away from its appearance, so the Young Clan Leader just needs to wait for a year or two." Hun Mie Sheng said directly, because this was not a secret in the first place, and regardless of whether Yao Yan knew it or not, he still had to show the right attitude.

For Hun Mie Sheng, making friends with Yao Yan will bring him hundreds of benefits and no harm.

As for Hunxuzi... Yaoyan is much more valuable than Hunxuzi now. We are all adults, and friendship is no match for practical benefits.

"I know about this, but this incomplete map is not ordinary. I have obtained one before. It seems to be left by the Pure Lotus Demon Saint. It may involve some secrets of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire!" Yao Yan glanced at Hunmie Sheng and said.

“Pure Lotus Demon Saint?!” Hun Mie Sheng felt a little hot in his heart when he heard this, because the Pure Lotus Demon Saint was a top powerful warrior in the past. Unfortunately, this burning feeling was quickly extinguished by Yao Yan’s eyes. With Yao Yan’s current strength, he was obviously not qualified to compete with the other party.

He calmed himself down and asked in a low voice, "Young Clan Leader, do you need the Soul Palace to take action? After all, the clan rules of each clan are still restrictive, and those above the Dou Sheng level are not suitable for taking action openly."

"No need. I'm not looking for trouble. I'm just coming to visit." Yao Yan said calmly.

The corner of Hun Mie Sheng's mouth twitched. How could he not understand what Yao Yan meant by "visit"? A six-star Douluo with imperial soul power came to visit. With the strength of the three sects, how could they withstand such pressure? Even if they made friends with all the races, it would be useless.

After all, when it comes to friendship, Yaoyan is still the "son-in-law" of all ethnic groups!
This matter is no longer a secret in the circle of fighting saints.

"These are the spatial coordinates of the three sects." Hun Miesheng didn't continue talking nonsense. He took out a jade tablet and left the spatial coordinates on it. Then he handed it to Yao Yan respectfully and continued, "The ancient Bodhi tree has shown signs of emerging, and the place where it emerged should be familiar to the young clan leader."

"The ancient and wild domain?" Yao Yan's eyes narrowed slightly and he said in a deep voice.

"That's right. After the last incident, many people went deep into the ancient wilderness and accidentally discovered signs that the ancient Bodhi tree is about to be born. This news has slowly spread in Zhongzhou... But the ancient Bodhi tree is very good at hiding, and it is extremely difficult to find it if you are above the Fighting Saint!" Hunmie Sheng reminded Yao Yan.

"It's just a try. It doesn't matter if I fail." Yao Yan nodded and held the jade token in his hand. "I'm leaving first. When I'm done with my work, I'll treat you to a drink!"

After saying this, he moved away directly using the spatial coordinates as an anchor point.

Following Yao Yan's departure.

Hun Miesheng took a deep breath, his expression somewhat solemn, and whispered to himself: "What a terrifying growth rate. Once he obtains the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, his strength will definitely leap to a higher level. He may even be able to match the elders of the clan... But since I am on good terms with him, it shouldn't have any impact on me."

There was a pause.

He laughed out loud, as if he was thinking of Hunxuzi's situation. With Yao Yan's current strength, Hunxuzi's position was really awkward. If the clan leader wanted to replace him... that would be really interesting.

Apparently, Hun Mie Sheng still didn't know that the Spirit Clan had been destroyed and that Hun Xuzi's position had been taken by Yao Yan!
If I knew, I probably wouldn't be able to laugh anymore. ...

The space was distorted, just like the surface of water being pushed apart.

The surrounding scenery was like a slide, and in an instant it appeared in another space. As Yao Yan's figure emerged, an endless desert came into view. However, in Yao Yan's eyes, the space in front of him showed a unique overlapping state, as if there was another layer of space in it, and the desert in front of him was just an appearance.

Yao Yan was not surprised by this. Those above the Douluo Saint already had the ability to open up space, not to mention that the leaders of the three sects were not weak in strength. It was obviously not a difficult task for them to join forces to open up a space.

"Om~"

Yao Yan's eyes paused slightly, and a hint of obscure soul power directly sank into the space realm. The soul power was not strong, but it exuded an extremely strong pressure. Those below the level of Douluo Saint were unable to sense this pressure, but those above the level of Douluo Saint would feel a little suffocated.

"brush!"

Almost as soon as the soul force was absorbed into the space, three figures came out together, looking around with fear on their faces. They were obviously shocked by the soul force from before. The middle-aged man in the lead showed a respectful look on his face: "I don't know which friend you are, please show yourself!"

"Hun Yan from the Soul Clan is here to visit me!" Along with the faint voice of words, Yao Yan's figure stepped from the outside space into the space created by the three of them.

The four people stood in the void, as if they were in two different dimensions with the disciples of the three sects below. Neither the conversation nor the pressure disturbed them at all, just like humans looking down at ants on the ground... Would ants know what humans are?

The two are not in the same dimension.

The same is true for Douluo Saint and those below Douluo Saint. If the Douluo Saint does not want to be discovered, there is no possibility of discovery at all for those below Douluo Saint. Even if one possesses the soul power of Heavenly Realm Great Perfection, it is useless… There is an order of magnitude difference between the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection at Douluo level and the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection at Douluo level.

Soul Clan Soul Words? !
As the four words fell, the faces of the leaders of the three sects all changed, and their hearts skipped a beat, because the news that Yao Yan had designed to exterminate the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan and the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan not long ago had spread in the Douluo circle. It was rumored that the number of Douluo who died at the hands of this kid was almost in double digits, which was even more ferocious than Soul Palace's Hun Mie Sheng!

Moreover, his age is even more exaggerated. It is said that he has married the daughter of the patriarch of the ancient clan, and even various clans have plans for intermarriage.

This matter is no secret in the circle of Fighting Saints, and many people know about it. Each of these things is enough to make them breathless.

"I wonder what brings the Soul Clan's young patriarch to visit us? We should not have provoked you or the Soul Clan!" Xuankong, the leader of the Kongxuan Sect, pondered for a long time before stepping forward a few steps and asking with a bow.

"I got the news that the space trade fair organized by your three factions obtained a fragmentary map of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire." Yao Yan looked at the three people and said lightly.

The remaining image of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire? !

The three of them looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. After all, they had only obtained this fragment of the map not long ago and had not yet determined its true value. Unexpectedly, the young patriarch of the Soul Clan came to visit them. Could it be that there were spies of the Soul Clan in the three sects? !
Is this necessary?
Could it be that the Soul Clan has set their eyes on the thousands of years of savings of their three sects?

"Third brother!" Xuankong did not hesitate for too long and shouted directly to the master of Jianbao Mountain, because the remaining map of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire was in the other party's hands.

The master of Jianbao Mountain would naturally not do anything stupid. Those who have cultivated to the level of Dou Sheng are all outstanding people, and their judgment of the situation is even more acute. He would not do such stupid behavior as an ant trying to shake a tree. Without saying a word, he took out a brocade box from his ring, held it with Dou Qi, and handed it to Yao Yan.

Yao Yan opened the box and at a glance, he confirmed that the incomplete map was the one he wanted. He immediately felt relieved. He had not made a fuss to look for this incomplete map over the years because he was worried about some accidents. Fortunately, nothing had changed.

Even with his current strength, he would not be much afraid of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire. It might save some trouble, so why go through so much trouble?

Moreover, Yao Yan also wanted to know whether the remnant thoughts in this incomplete map contained the inheritance of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint. When he was alive, the other party was an invincible strong man at the half-emperor level. In this world where the Dou Emperor cannot appear, he represents the end of this world!

"Thank you." Yao Yan said softly, and his figure slowly disappeared among the three sects, leaving only the three sect leaders looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Is it really just for a fragment of a map?!" One of them showed a look of surprise and doubt. When did the people of the Soul Clan become so easy to talk to?

“Is there some big secret in that incomplete map?” asked the master of Jianbao Mountain.

"No matter what happens, it has nothing to do with our three sects. We should protect ourselves... Zhongzhou has been unstable recently, so we'd better be cautious!" Xuan Kong said in a serious voice. He had a feeling that a storm was about to come, because the Douqi Continent had been peaceful for too long, and in recent years, the Soul Clan seemed to be getting more and more active.

Everything indicates that the Douqi Continent will soon be in turmoil. If one is not careful, the sect may be destroyed and even people may die!
……

A deserted mountain top.

Yao Yan took out four remaining images of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire and pieced them together with his soul power. He then summoned the fused strange fire. The brilliant flames instantly enveloped them and began to burn fiercely. The terrifying temperature caused the surrounding space to feel distorted and wrinkled, but the remaining images of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire remained safe and sound.

However, this peace did not last long. As the flames rose, the landscape pattern on the remaining picture began to melt and soon began to glow. The light became brighter and brighter, almost breaking through the picture.

"brush!"

As it reached a peak, the patterns on the remaining picture began to glow, and one by one, ancient characters emerged from the gorgeous flames and flew into the air.

Two months appear together.

Nine stars in one.

The tides of heaven and earth.

The demon fire comes to the world.

Yao Yan ignored this familiar text, because the place and time when the Pure Lotus Demon Fire was born were recorded by all the major imperial clans, and it was something everyone knew. He stared at the soul mark rising from the flame in the remaining picture, pondered for a moment, and slowly said: "Senior, since you are awake, please show yourself!"

The remaining picture slowly turned into ashes in the gorgeous flames. A ray of light emerged from the picture, like a living thing. It seemed to have heard Yao Yan's words, and the light began to slowly extend. After a moment, it turned into an illusory human figure.

The figure looked quite young and handsome. As his eyes slowly opened, a pair of milky white eyes slowly fell on Yao Yan. Suddenly, an indescribable feeling of oppression surged into his heart. It was the pressure from a once-powerful man.

Who could have thought that the former Semi-Emperor Pure Lotus Demon Saint would reappear in this form! (End of this chapter)
