"Sigh, I knew that the Hun Clan wouldn't play by the rules."
As the voice of the old man from the Hun Clan fell, an ancient and weathered voice quietly echoed across the space.
At the same time, a section of the void suddenly trembled violently. In the next instant, a cyan ox stepped through the air and slowly emerged in this space.
On the back of the ox sat a short and small figure, dressed in simple coarse cloth.
His eyes were clear and bright, his face tender and childlike, yet everyone present knew that this was no ordinary child!
"Oh? The ancestor of the Pill Tower?" Mo Yu squinted his eyes slightly as he observed the ox-riding child, murmuring to himself. "I heard that this person enjoys wandering through life, constantly reincarnating through borrowed bodies. Now that I see him, it appears to be true."
This person was undoubtedly one of the strongest experts on the Dou Qi Continent, and what was even more astonishing was that the ancestor of the Small Pill Tower was not a human.
Instead, he was a Peak Ninth-grade Xuan Pill that had gained sentience! He was just one step away from evolving into the legendary Ninth-grade Golden Pill.
In this regard, he was somewhat similar to Bei Wang, who had also taken on human form after being born from the Divine Might Black Thunder Spear.
As Mo Yu was deep in thought, the confrontation between Elder Hun Mo and the Pill Tower Ancestor had already escalated due to the matter of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's Essence.
"The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's Essence belongs to my Hun Clan, no matter what. Old monster, you'd better not interfere!" Elder Hun Mo sneered coldly.
"Whoosh!"
As soon as his words left his mouth, his figure vanished from its original spot.
In the next instant, he was the first to arrive at the area where the pillar of light had descended. Without hesitation, he reached out to seize it.
However, just as his palm was about to touch the pillar of light, he suddenly realized that the space around him had undergone a bizarre transformation.
With just a ripple in the void, he found himself standing exactly where the Pill Tower Ancestor had been a moment ago.
Meanwhile, the Pill Tower Ancestor had somehow switched places with him in an instant.
This shocking turn of events left everyone astonished—no one had even noticed how it had happened!
"Spatial Displacement... A Six-Star Dou Sheng?! You actually broke through to Six-Star?!"
Elder Hun Mo stood there in a daze. A moment later, he snapped back to reality, his face filled with disbelief.
Behind him, the Chief of the Hall of Souls, the Deputy Chief, and Hun Feng also watched in silence, their expressions darkening.
A Six-Star Dou Sheng!
Even within the Hun Clan, such an expert was exceedingly rare. Only the Grand Elders of the clan had reached this level.
No wonder that whenever the Hall of Souls wanted to make a move against the Pill Tower, the higher-ups of the Hun Clan would always step in to stop them.
It turned out that the Small Pill Tower had been hiding such a terrifying existence all along!
However, the ox-riding child paid no attention to Elder Hun Mo's stunned exclamation.
He simply grasped the black light pillar in his small hands and began carefully inspecting the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's Essence within it.
"Old monster, do you really intend to make an enemy of my Hun Clan?!" Elder Hun Mo's expression turned frosty as he shouted.
"Utter foolishness."
The ox-riding child glanced at him indifferently and shook his head. Then, without hesitation, he casually tossed the pillar of light into the air.
Seeing this, Elder Hun Mo's face lit up with joy, and he was about to seize the treasure—
But then, the next sentence from the ox-riding child made him freeze in terror.
"Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame... Truly worthy of being ranked third on the Heavenly Flame Ranking. You allowed yourself to be sealed on purpose, just so you could watch these people fight among themselves. In the end, you planned to reap all the benefits without lifting a finger."
"You hid your true intentions well... but you can't deceive me."
The ox-riding child slowly raised his head and looked at the black pillar of light tumbling in the sky. His clear gaze pierced directly into the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's Essence, and he smiled faintly.
"Old monster, you dare to ruin my plans again?! Do you have a death wish?!"
As soon as the Pill Tower Ancestor finished speaking, a milky-white flame surged across the sky.
Amidst the sea of flames, a white-robed figure slowly materialized—it was none other than the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame!
His expression was ice-cold as he glared at the Pill Tower Ancestor, his voice filled with fury.
"So it was true… this guy really let himself be sealed on purpose."
Seeing this, everyone's expressions darkened as they finally realized the truth.
At the same time, having had his plans exposed, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame let out a chilling laugh.
His hands suddenly formed a strange seal, and the milky-white flames that filled the world began converging rapidly toward him.
In an instant, under countless stunned gazes, the flames coalesced into a towering flame giant, nearly ten thousand meters tall!
"Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame God Statue!"
The flame giant stomped its enormous feet into the lava sea below.
Its massive size was overwhelming—just one punch from this behemoth could likely erase even a Dou Sheng from existence!
"Old ghost, die!"
Standing atop the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame God Statue, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame sneered coldly.
Then, the giant abruptly lifted its fist, which was as large as a mountain, and brought it crashing down toward the Pill Tower Ancestor!
The Pill Tower Ancestor remained suspended in the sky, watching the descending fist like a meteor.
He opened his mouth, and suddenly, a blazing golden light burst forth, transforming into a giant shield that covered the heavens.
"Boom!"
The mountain-sized fist smashed into the golden barrier, unleashing a terrifying shockwave that obliterated everything within ten thousand meters.
The very fabric of space in this area shattered into pitch-black void!
"Pill Fusion Sky!"
The Pill Tower Ancestor lifted his finger.
A single drop of azure blood seeped from his skin. Within the thick blue hue, a faint trace of golden radiance shimmered.
As soon as this drop of blood left his body, it shot toward the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame God Statue, growing larger as it traveled.
In just a few breaths, it expanded into a hundred-meter-wide azure beam.
The beam carried an intoxicating fragrance as it streaked across the sky—
And then, in the blink of an eye, it slammed into the chest of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame God Statue!
The azure light spread rapidly.
Before everyone's astonished eyes, half of the flame giant's body began melting away!
"Damn you, old ghost!!!"
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame roared in fury, his figure soaring into the sky.
With a wave of his hands, countless milky-white fire threads shot out—
And then, they all fused into the very fabric of this Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Space!
"Ancient Flame Refining Formation, activate!"
As his voice echoed, the space trembled violently—
And in the skies above, an enormous flame array, tens of thousands of meters wide, began materializing from the void!
"Rumble—!"
As the massive formation appeared in the sky, the endless sea of magma below also began to churn violently. Under the shocked gazes of everyone, an enormous fire formation slowly emerged from the depths.
With the appearance of these two massive formations—one above and one below—both the Pill Tower Ancestor and Elder Hun Mo's expressions turned grim in an instant.
"Hahaha! Old ghost, you never expected this, did you?" The sky-covering ancient formation rotated slowly as the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame laughed maniacally.
"This sealing formation personally set up by the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint was ultimately turned to my advantage! Over these thousands of years, I've already comprehended its mysteries. Within this Demonic Flame Realm, who can stand against me?!"
"This is big trouble…"
Everyone watching the scene couldn't help but gasp. This terrifying formation was countless times stronger than the Tianluo Sealing Demon Formation the Chief of the Soul Hall had previously displayed.
Zi Yan and the others stared solemnly at the massive formations in the sky and sea, their hearts trembling as if struck by roaring waves. They could feel that even the slightest energy leak from the formations could easily annihilate them.
Mo Yu's eyes flickered before he turned to look at Xiao Yan.
Sure enough, Xiao Yan suddenly clutched his forehead. In that instant, the mysterious light orb within his mind trembled at an astonishing frequency. In its quivering, it seemed as if something was about to awaken.
And just as expected, in the next moment, a faint halo of light burst forth from Xiao Yan's body. The halo slowly condensed around him before ultimately transforming into a somewhat ethereal figure.
"Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame?!"
The moment the figure appeared, everyone gasped in horror and instinctively retreated. The figure's appearance was identical to the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame in the sky!
"No! It's not the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame… it's the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint!"
The Pill Tower Ancestor's eyes widened in shock as he stared at the figure outside Xiao Yan's body. As if suddenly realizing something, his expression changed drastically, and he cried out in disbelief.
"What?!"
At these words, everyone's scalp went numb. A super powerful expert who was said to have perished thousands of years ago had suddenly appeared within Xiao Yan's body?!
As the crowd reeled in shock, Xiao Yan's tightly shut eyes slowly opened. However, the deep black pupils had turned into a milky white.
'Xiao Yan' swept his gaze across the surroundings. Anyone caught in his sight, even someone as strong as Elder Hun Mo, felt a primal urge from the depths of their soul—to kneel, to worship, to tremble in awe.
"Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint?! Impossible! How could you still be alive?!"
High above, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame instantly locked onto Xiao Yan. When his gaze landed on the translucent figure surrounding Xiao Yan's body, his mind erupted with waves of shock, and his horrified roar echoed through the sky.
"Even after being sealed for thousands of years, it seems the savagery in your heart has not faded."
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint gazed at the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame. A voice, seemingly near yet distant, resonated from his mouth, carrying an unfathomable might that made the heavens tremble.
"You ungrateful bastard, Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint! Without me, do you think you could've achieved such heights? I helped you so much, yet in the end, you sealed me away! Hah, serves you right for being devoured in the end!" The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame roared in fury, his expression twisted with resentment.
"I bear responsibility for your savagery. However, your destructive power is too great. If left unchecked, it would be a disaster for the world." The Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint shook his head.
As his voice fell, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint slowly raised a hand and pointed forward.
"Freeze."
A calm, indifferent word left his lips.
The moment the word echoed, the massive fire formation spanning tens of thousands of meters across the sky instantly froze in place.
"The Ancient Flame Refining Formation was my creation. When it comes to understanding it, you are no match for me." The Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint's face carried a faint smile as he looked toward the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, whose expression had turned exceptionally ugly.
"You bastard!"
Seeing this, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame cursed in fury. But before his curse could even fade, his face changed drastically as he realized—to his horror—that his control over the formation was slipping away!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The two enormous fire formations trembled violently, and soon, layers of milky-white flames erupted from within, all surging toward the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame. As these flames fused into him, he completely lost control over the Ancient Flame Refining Formation.
"Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint! I'll fight you to the death!"
Losing control of the formation, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's eyes turned blood-red. He knew very well just how terrifying this formation was. If the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint were to regain full control, he would undoubtedly be sealed away once more. That dull, agonizing existence… he had endured it for thousands of years and could no longer bear it.
"Flame Annihilation!"
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's body rapidly expanded before suddenly exploding, transforming into a sea of monstrous flames that engulfed the heavens and earth. In that instant, all energy in the space was vaporized by the terrifying heat.
"Ahhh!"
A desperate scream echoed as a Ban Sheng expert was instantly ignited from within. His Dou Qi burned uncontrollably, and his meridians twisted in agony.
With the eruption of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, resisting the searing heat without the aid of Dou Qi was impossible—even someone as strong as Zi Yan had no confidence in doing so. If they wanted to survive, they had to flee immediately.
"Hiss!"
Just as everyone was trembling in fear, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint flicked his sleeve, causing the two enormous formations in the sky and sea to emit a dazzling glow. The glow twisted and contorted in midair before finally condensing into a spatial passageway.
"Leave quickly. If the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame detonates, none of you will survive."
Hearing these calm words, everyone was momentarily stunned before erupting in joy. Without hesitation, they rushed toward the spatial passageway, scrambling to escape.
Mo Yu cupped his hands in gratitude. If not for this mysterious expert's intervention, their expedition would have ended in catastrophe.
Then, Mo Yu glanced at Xiao Yan again. He couldn't help but sigh—this kid was ridiculously lucky. Under normal circumstances, Xiao Yan wouldn't have stood a chance at subduing the third-ranked Heavenly Flame, yet with the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint's assistance, he was forcefully given an opportunity.
Feeling satisfied with his gains, Mo Yu called for Snake Elder and Lei Fei'er to prepare to leave. However, he suddenly noticed Xun'er staring at Xiao Yan, her beautiful eyes filled with unwavering determination. Without hesitation, she chose to stay behind.
Seeing this, Mo Yu was momentarily stunned before a knowing look flashed through his silver pupils. He smiled playfully at Xun'er.
"With Cousin Xun'er here, I'm sure Cousin Xiao Yan will have heaven's favor watching over him…"
If Mo Yu remembered correctly, it was during the refining of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame that Xiao Yan and Xun'er finally took their first step toward "true intimacy"…
