Chapter 202: Fallen Heart Flame, Erupts!
"Xiao Yuan?"
A surprised question sounded, drawing everyone's attention.
The figure in white robe slowly stood up, turned his head, and said with a smile: "It's me, Senior Lin, how are you?"
"Is it really you? Why are you here?"
Lin Xiuya asked curiously.
Xiao Yan was not surprised because he had known about this for a long time. However, seeing Xiao Yuan waiting here, he felt a little curious.
Normally, the third brother would just practice here, but looking at the current situation, it seems that the third brother is not ready to continue practicing!
"Practice!" Xiao Yuan smiled, then turned to Su Qian and said, "Grand Elder, everything is ready."
Su Qian nodded upon hearing this, then turned his head and looked at the top ten on the Strongest List. He pointed at the ten specially made jade tables beside Xiao Yuan and said with a smile, "Everyone, sit down!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan and the other ten people hurriedly followed his instructions and each found a jade platform to sit on.
As he sat on the jade platform, Xiao Yan suddenly felt a light warm and cool feeling seeping in. Sitting here, it seemed that even the scorching temperature from the outside world was isolated.
Seeing that everyone was sitting on the jade platform, Su Qian turned around and looked at Xiao Yuan, smiling and nodded.
Xiao Yuan also nodded slightly, then turned around and slowly walked towards the entrance of the deep cave. He formed hand seals with his hands like lightning, and finally shouted in a low voice.
As he shouted, there was a sudden surge of waves around the empty deep cave, and then a layer of illusory energy ripples slowly appeared in front of everyone's gaze.
After the energy ripple shield emerged, Xiao Yuan waved his hands, and suddenly, pale white light shields the size of human heads slowly floated out from the deep hole, and finally permeated with energy ripples, hovering two meters above the ground, rising and falling.
After a while, a total of ten balls of light appeared in front of Xiao Yan and others.
After blinking, everyone looked at the egg-like white light shield with doubtful expressions.
Seeing the blank expressions on everyone's face, Su Qian smiled faintly and waved his sleeves. Suddenly, the color of the pale white mask quickly became transparent, and finally, the contents inside were revealed in front of everyone.
The color faded, and what appeared within the light shield was a group of flames that seemed invisible, but could be seen with the naked eye. These flames curled up in their respective light groups, but the temperature seemed to be all absorbed by the light. The light mask provided general isolation, so Xiao Yan and others could not detect any temperature.
"This is the Origin Heart Flame." Su Qian stared at the invisible flames and said calmly, "This Origin Heart Flame is extremely difficult to obtain. Every year, we spend a lot of manpower to get about three to four groups, and it depends on luck. This thing is not very useful for people above the Dou Wang level, but for those below the Dou Wang level, it can pave the way for them to become Dou Wang. Of course, this also has considerable risks. The pain of forging the body is extremely difficult to endure. If you are not careful, not only will you fail, but you will also cause considerable damage to yourself."
After saying that, Su Qian glanced at Xiao Yuan.
Speaking of which, Xiao Yuan has captured two more balls of Origin Heart Flame in the past month. Xiao Yuan, who possesses the strange fire, coupled with his own powerful strength, is so efficient in capturing the Origin Heart Flame that even some Douhuang-level elders are surprised Su Qian.
"Great Elder, what was the success rate of the Origin Heart Flame Body Tempering in previous years?" Someone in the crowd stretched out his hand and asked cautiously.
"The failure rate of the top ten people who come here to train their bodies is not low. Half of them fail every time." Su Qian's understated voice made some people break out in cold sweat. A failure rate of half... Doesn't that seem a bit high?
"The Dou Wang level is the watershed for the strong men on the continent. You Dou Ling peaks should know how difficult it is to advance to this level. If you don't have enough opportunities, it is not impossible to stay at this level for your whole life."
Su Qian glanced at Lin Xiuya, Liu Qing and others, and spoke slowly.
"If you don't dare to accept the body training, just ask. This Origin Heart Flame is also extremely precious. If you can save it, that would be the best."
Su Qian continued.
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, but no one suggested retreating. Just as Su Qian said, it is too difficult to be promoted to Dou Wang. If you give up this opportunity and regret it in the future, you will never have such a chance again!
"Since you have no objections, then just close your eyes and concentrate. Don't be distracted. If there is any problem, we will take action."
Seeing that no one spoke, Su Qian waved his hand, and ten balls of light flew over the heads of the crowd. Finally, under the gazes of the crowd, they burst with a "bang", and the invisible flame in them fell straight down and drilled into the tops of the crowd.
As the invisible flame penetrated into the heads of Xiao Yan and the others, all ten of them began to tremble to varying degrees. Then, their faces turned red like burning charcoal, and there was even a wisp of white mist seeping out from their foreheads.
Looking at the red faces of the ten people, Su Qian nodded slightly and instructed Xiao Yuan: "Watch closely, don't let anything go wrong."
Xiao Yuan nodded, quite calmly. With his speed and means, he could certainly handle it.
Besides, he had just gone through this stage not long ago.
Su Qian was naturally relieved about Xiao Yuan. He immediately glanced at the huge deep hole behind him, frowned slightly, and said, "How is the Fallen Heart Flame doing recently? Is there any movement?"
Hearing Su Qian's question, Xiao Yuan's face became more serious, and he said quickly: "I was just about to tell you that during this period of time, the Fallen Heart Flame has been extremely calm, and there has not even been a slight fluctuation. I asked the two elders, and the Fallen Heart Flame has never been so calm before. I think something is wrong!"
"No movement?" Hearing this, Su Qian's face gradually became solemn. For so many years, the Fallen Heart Flame had been attacking the seal. How could it suddenly stop moving? As the saying goes, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Could it be that the Fallen Heart Flame is brewing something?
As his thoughts turned, Su Qian's face became more solemn. After a moment, he said in a deep voice, "How about the seal?"
"A few days ago, I summoned all the elders of the inner courtyard and gathered eighteen people. It took five days to completely repair the seal that had been somewhat broken by the impact.
However, Great Elder, the power of the strange fire is extraordinary, and the Fallen Heart Flame has already evolved intelligence. I am afraid that there will be big moves this time. I have a feeling that a storm is about to come.
Although there is a seal set by the dean himself on the surface of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, the beast is so abnormal this time, maybe it has some confidence in breaking through the seal. In my opinion, it is better for us to make some preparations in advance!"
Su Qian nodded and said in agreement, "Well, you have a strange fire, so you naturally know how terrifying it is. I believe in your judgment. I will send more people to the vicinity. If there is any movement, send a signal immediately. I have already told the outer courtyard yesterday that if there is a problem with the Fallen Heart Flame, someone will come quickly!"
"Well, don't worry, Great Elder. I will send a signal immediately if there is any situation. I will take care of the students here."
Xiao Yuan knew that Su Qian was worried and wanted to go down to investigate, so he nodded seriously and said.
"Okay, I'll go check out the exact situation. I'll leave this to you!"
Su Qian nodded with some satisfaction after hearing this, and then he disappeared in a flash.
Looking at the place where Su Qian disappeared, a glimmer of light flashed in Xiao Yuan's eyes.
The outbreak of the Fallen Heart Flame this time is a foregone conclusion. Instead of worrying about the seal, it is better to close the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower in advance and clear out all the students and mentors around the tower!
Xiao Yuan came back to his senses, and began to pay attention to the status of the top ten people on the strong list who were undergoing Heart Flame Body Training.
As expected, Xiao Yan did not encounter any problems. However, about an hour after the Origin Heart Flame entered his body, one of the students suddenly showed abnormal symptoms. His originally flushed face instantly turned pale, and his body trembled rapidly as if he was having a seizure.
Although Xiao Yuan had no impression of this person, he would not neglect his duty. He flashed to his side and lightly extended his hand to the student's back. From the palm of his hand, the powerful fighting spirit mixed with the strange fire directly flowed into the latter's body and devoured the original heart fire.
As the fighting spirit poured in, the student's body trembling began to weaken, but a flush appeared on his paper-pale face, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of bright red blood.
The blood fell to the ground, and there was a hissing sound. A puff of white smoke rose up, and finally only a light reddish bloodstain was left on the ground.
Blood spurted out, and the student slowly opened his eyes. He seemed to know that he had failed, and his eyes were filled with sadness and helplessness.
"Take a break. Failure is common in Heart Flame Bodybuilding. Even if you don't succeed, with your talent, you won't be stuck at the Dou Wang level forever."
Xiao Yuan smiled and comforted him.
The student obviously knew Xiao Yuan's name, but he didn't understand when Xiao Yuan suddenly became an elder of the inner courtyard. He wanted to ask, but another student's body trembled rapidly. Xiao Yuan shrugged helplessly, then flashed to the side of the man again, followed suit, and swallowed the heart fire in his body directly. The failure of the first two people seemed to have a chain reaction. In just one hour, three more people failed. Even though Xiao Yuan was extremely efficient, he was still busy and happy.
After dealing with the last student with problems, Xiao Yuan looked at the other five people. Although their breathing was flushed, it was still stable. He breathed a sigh of relief. They had passed the most dangerous period. As long as no major mistakes occurred next, they should be able to succeed.
“It’s still a 50% chance.”
Xiao Yuan shook his head and sighed.
Then, Xiao Yuan turned his gaze to the five people who were somewhat depressed because of the failure, and said with a smile: "You guys take a break first, I will take you out of the tower later."
After saying that, Xiao Yuan closed his eyes, sat on his jade platform and began to practice, not giving the five of them any chance to ask questions.
Two hours later, Xiao Yuan opened his eyes.
"Come on, I'll take you out. Move quickly. There's been some unrest in the tower lately. I still have to keep an eye on this place."
After Xiao Yuan finished speaking, he stood up and left.
The five people looked at each other in confusion when they heard that, and after a glance, they had no choice but to follow.
After quickly seeing off the five people, Xiao Yuan returned immediately. He did not continue to practice and just sat quietly where he was.
On the third day, the Heart Flame Body Training was finally coming to an end. The flush on their faces was slowly fading away. Breaths of varying strengths were rising from their bodies. Although the strength of this breath was not much different from before the training, it was obviously more condensed now than a few days ago.
However, when everyone was about to succeed, at the bottom of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, Su Qian, who had been paying close attention to the movements of the Fallen Heart Flame, suddenly changed his expression.
The lowest level of Tianfen Qi Refining Tower is almost a completely different scene from the upper floors. The blazing temperature rises in the huge space, and even the vision is a bit blurry and illusory. Take a gentle breath and enter the body. Suddenly there was a feeling like taking a breath of fire.
The fiery red light seeped out from nowhere, illuminating the entire space quite brightly. In the center of this space, there was also an extremely spacious deep hole. The entrance to this deep hole was larger than any of the previous floors. It should be wide, and it is not bottomless black, but filled with a faint dark red, like solidified blood.
Outside the deep hole, a cylindrical energy shield visible to the naked eye blocked it tightly. The surface of the energy shield was filled with various mysterious patterns, like winding dents left by a snake. The energy shield here was also extremely violent, with powerful energy ripples constantly spreading out, and even faint sounds of extremely low gas explosions could be heard.
Not far away from the energy shield, Su Qian sat cross-legged, his eyes seeming to be closed. With the help of the huge fighting energy, his thoughts wrapped up the entire bottom layer of the Tianfen Qi Refining Tower. Any slight fluctuations, There is no escaping his induction.
In the quiet bottom layer, there was suddenly a faint sound of flowing liquid. The sound was like the rolling of a lake. However, it was such a subtle sound that made Su Qian's solemn expression change instantly. His eyes suddenly opened, and two sharp gazes shot straight to the deep hole in the center. The sound came from there!
Standing up like lightning, Su Qian's figure moved. When he reappeared, he was already at the edge of the deep cave. His eyes were like lightning, shining straight into the deep cave. However, after a while, the sound of liquid flowing suddenly sounded. It was as if he had completely disappeared at this moment.
Su Qian frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and slowly pressed his hands against the extremely violent energy shield in front of him.
The violent energy that was enough to easily injure any Dou Wang expert, in Su Qian's hands, quickly became quiet as if seeing the owner's pet. As the former's hands slowly parted, the circular energy The cover also separates a passage for people to pass through.
With a flash of his body, Su Qian rushed into the energy shield and stood firmly on the edge of the deep hole with his feet. Suddenly, an extremely hot temperature rushed towards him. Under this high temperature, even if With Su Qian's strength, he did not dare to ignore it. With a wave of his sleeves, a powerful fighting spirit enveloped his body, insulating him from the blazing temperature.
After completing these protective measures, Su Qian looked into the deep cave. A faint fluorescence gradually covered his pupils. Under this fluorescence, a little other scene finally appeared in the depths of the bottomless cave. It was a sea of magma, but the color of the magma here was particularly dark red compared to ordinary magma, as if it was mixed with countless blood, which looked quite weird.
Looking at the corner of the magma world that was who knows how far deep into the ground, Su Qian's face became even more solemn. Although he knew that the real body of the Fallen Heart Flame was hidden in it, in such an extremely harsh environment, even with his strength, he did not dare to break in easily. What's more, there was also a Fallen Heart Flame with a greedy and spiritual look hidden in it.
With the help of the increased vision, Su Qian could vaguely see a corner of the magma world. The dark red that filled his entire field of vision, after looking at it for a long time, even with his strength, he could feel a sense of irritation surging in his heart. He knew that this was the work of the Fallen Heart Flame. This kind of flame that came from the human heart was the most bizarre.
"Why is there no movement?" The magma world is still as calm as ever, with no sign of any movement. But before, Su Qian clearly felt an extremely huge flow of energy, deep underground where there was no other life. , besides the Fallen Heart Flame, who else could have such huge energy that shocked even him?
His brows were furrowed. With Su Qian's strength, he knew clearly that it couldn't be an illusion. However, now.
"Oh!"
Suddenly, a subtle voice quietly sounded from the magma world, and immediately passed through the deep cave of unknown length and reached Su Qian's ears.
This subtle sound, like the beating of a heart, made his heart beat along with it.
At this moment, his pupils shrank to the size of a needle tip. This time, Su Qian was certain that something was definitely about to happen in the magma world below. The strange voice before must have something weird!
However, although he knew that something was happening underground, Su Qian still didn't dare to enter. After all, if something happened to him and the Fallen Heart Flame suddenly erupted again, the inner courtyard would be in a devastating disaster.
"Oh!"
Just as Su Qian was pondering, another low voice sounded quietly, and this voice was louder than before, and it sounded as if something was about to break out of its cocoon.
The fists in the sleeves of the robe were slowly clenched, and Su Qian's expression was gloomy. Reflected by the dark red light, he looked a little gloomy.
"Oh!"
There was another sound similar to a heartbeat, and this time, it was stronger than the last time.
"Oh!"
Five minutes after this sound, there was another one, and three minutes after that, there was another one.
As time went by, the strange sound beat more and more rapidly. In the end, Su Qian was horrified to find that the sound was completely in tune with the beating of her own heart!
"What on earth just happened?" Su Qian's face suddenly changed before he could finish his muttering. He looked in horror at the underground magma world. There, an extremely violent and powerful energy was slowly gushing out from the bottom of the magma. Moreover, with the surge of this violent energy, the tranquility in the magma world was also broken. A strong wind came from nowhere and howled above the magma, driving the magma to roll up a fiery wave as high as ten feet, which then fell heavily. The roaring sound at that moment was like a mountain collapse and the earth splitting!
"This energy." Feeling the sudden surge of familiar energy, a green color surged on Su Qian's face. After so many years of dealing with it, he naturally knew very clearly that this energy belonged to the Fallen Heart Flame!
"What did this thing do? How come its energy suddenly became several times stronger than before?" Su Qian murmured in shock.
"The energy has become so much stronger. Then... these seals, the effect." Su Qian's heart suddenly turned cold when he suddenly remembered something extremely important. Just when he was about to gather people to reinforce the seal, a loud bang suddenly sounded at the bottom of the deep cave. He looked down, his eyes widened, and he took a breath of cold air.
In the endless magma world, the dark red magma suddenly started churning violently, and an extremely violent energy filled it.
The magma rolled as if something was about to break out of the water. After a while, the rolling magma suddenly became quiet. However, Su Qian's eyes did not relax because of this. He clearly felt that the violent energy was getting closer and closer to the surface of the magma.
"puff!"
A wave suddenly rose up on the calm surface of the magma. As the magma flew, a fire python whose entire body could not be seen, whose body was almost transparent, whose head was over ten feet long and whose body was covered with invisible flames, broke through the magma, bringing with it a tremendous energy that caused the space to shake, and appeared in Su Qian's solemn gaze.
"grumble!"
Breaking out of the magma, a transparent fire python so huge that there was no end in sight, raised its huge head as if it had been imprisoned for a thousand years, and the sound waves, sharp enough to explode the body of an ordinary Dou Ling on the spot, spread rapidly.
As the sound wave spread, the magma world was like being thrown into countless bombs. Low roars continued to sound, magma burst out, and flames gushed everywhere.
After venting almost madly, the huge transparent fire python, as if sensing the gaze from the ground, suddenly raised its huge head, and its vertical pupils, which were glowing with invisible flames, locked onto Su Qian at the entrance of the cave!
As his body was locked by the transparent fire energy, Su Qian suddenly felt a chill all over his body, as if his entire body was seen through from the inside out by the other party.
The snake's pupils locked onto Su Qian, and just a moment later, it recognized this old rival with its high intelligence. An extremely terrifying energy wave suddenly rose from its huge body. The energy was so violent and majestic that even Su Qian felt a little chilled.
"grumble!"
Another violent and sharp sound wave burst out, and the invisible fire python's huge body slammed into the magma. Suddenly, the huge body, which was nearly twenty or thirty feet long, rushed up along the deep hole like an invisible lightning, with scorching temperature and violent energy!
"Oops, this beast is going to break the seal!"
The action of the invisible fire python made Su Qian's face change. He touched the edge with his toes and retreated from the energy shield like lightning. The seal in his hand moved suddenly, and energy suddenly surged at the entrance of the cave, forming a colorful energy shield that sealed the entrance tightly!
At the moment when the seals in his hands were forming, a roar like thunder suddenly came out from Su Qian's mouth, and finally exploded mightily in the sky above the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower and the entire inner courtyard.
"All the elders rush to the tower immediately, and all students leave within a hundred meters of the Tianfen Qi Refining Tower!"
Hearing the sound resounding in the sky, the entire inner courtyard suddenly became quiet at this moment.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan, who had been sitting quietly in the same place, suddenly stood up!
