"Bad Xiao Li!"
"Has that boy angered Yun'er again?" An old voice came, and Yun Yun turned around to find Yun Shan standing there.
"Ah! Teacher! When did you arrive?" Yun Yun's pretty face flushed, and she said timidly.
"Just arrived, just arrived. I saw a rascal taking liberties with my obedient Disciple, and I am very angry," Yun Shan said, huffing.
"Teacher, he didn't do it on purpose." Yun Yun said this without thinking, blurting it out. After speaking, she covered her mouth.
"Alas~ A grown daughter won't stay. Anyway, let's talk about serious matters. Why did this boy enter the Gate of Life and Death?" Yun Shan asked. The Secret Realm of the Gate of Life and Death was a secret of the Cloud Mist Sect, known only to successive Sect Masters, Young Sect Masters, and the Elders.
"Teacher, I found the Yin Yang Twin Flames, a different fire, in the Gate of Life and Death. Li's master, Old Wang, needs the Yin Yang Twin Flames to save his life, so Li plans to subdue the Yin Yang Twin Flames!" Yun Yun told Yun Shan what had happened.
"Isn't this nonsense? Absorbing two different fires at the same time? Is he tired of living? How could you let that boy take such a risk?" Yun Shan said angrily.
"This Disciple disagreed, but I couldn't argue with him. He said he was confident, and I softened for a moment, so…" Yun Yun also felt some regret at this moment. She was afraid that Xiao Li would have an accident. Why wasn't she more firm just now?
"Alas~ We can only leave it to fate. However, this boy is very strong, and his path has not yet reached its end. I believe he can do it!" Yun Shan had confidence in Xiao Li. This confidence came from who knows where, but Yun Shan just had that feeling.
Yun Yun looked at the Gate of Life and Death, silently thinking: 'Li, you will definitely succeed! I believe in you!'
...In the Secret Realm of the Gate of Life and Death,
After Xiao Li entered the Gate of Life and Death, he saw a completely new environment. It was somewhat different from the outside world, feeling very strange, but there was an indescribable peculiar feeling.
The energy here was very special and quite rich. Cultivating here was indeed a very good place.
Xiao Li hung the jade token Yun Yun gave him on his waist, to prevent the previous Sect Masters of the Cloud Mist Sect from attacking him.
Xiao Li then walked towards the depths of the Secret Realm.
Half a day later,
"Hoo~ hoo~ I finally arrived. Why do the successive Sect Masters of the Cloud Mist Sect still like to tease people? Saying that the Sect Master cannot marry outside, bah~ what feudal custom. Old Yun didn't even say anything. Do you understand the value of my Seventh-Rank Alchemist?"
Xiao Li spewed so much nonsense, clearly he was truly angered. Deceased people still want to meddle in the affairs of the living. If it weren't for her status as the Cloud Mist Sect Master, Xiao Li would have directly burned her to death with the Fallen Heart Flame.
He really didn't know what a person who was only an Eight Star Dou Huang in her lifetime was shouting about? Truly shaming the successive Sect Masters of the Cloud Mist Sect.
"The giant sword has been found." Xiao Li saw the huge stone sword Yun Yun described. Passing the stone sword, he could see the Yin Yang Twin Flames.
Thump thump —
Xiao Li felt the Fallen Heart Flame in his body suddenly throb, as if it had encountered some opponent.
Following this feeling, Xiao Li advanced deeper. After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Li saw that strange black and white bicolor flame.
The Yin Yang Twin Flames ranked twenty-first on the strange fire ranking list, born from the Origin of the Universe's Void Realm, and was an extremely rare different fire.
Xiao Li came to the side of the Yin Yang Twin Flames. He felt that this Yin Yang Twin Flames did not possess extremely high intelligence; it only had instinct. However, it seemed that the Yin Yang Twin Flames had quite high spirituality, which was extremely peculiar. The energy of these Yin Yang Twin Flames was probably around the Dou Huang Rank.
Perhaps due to the special environment of the Gate of Life and Death, this Yin Yang Twin Flames could not develop intelligence similar to the Fallen Heart Flame in the Canaan Academy.
"Begin." Xiao Li sat down in place, took out several jade bottles, and prepared the usual items for refining different fires: Blood Lotus Pill, ice spirit cold spring, Ice Heart Pill, Meridian Protecting Pill, and a brand new Elixir, the Yin-Yang Flame Fusion Pill.
The Yin-Yang Flame Fusion Pill was a new Elixir created by Xiao Li by combining two Elixirs: the Seventh Grade Intermediate Elixir, the Yin-Yang Life Soul Pill, and the Sixth Grade Intermediate Elixir, the Flame Fusion Pill.
The main medicinal materials were a sixth-tier Yin-attribute beast core, a sixth-tier Yang-attribute beast core, Cold Flame Marrow, Sun-Moon Dew, and other auxiliary medicines. This Elixir was specifically used to balance the Yin Fire and Yang Fire of the Yin Yang Twin Flames.
The first time Xiao Li refined this Yin-Yang Flame Fusion Pill, its Rank was Sixth Grade Top-tier, similar to the Huangji Pill. However, Xiao Li felt that the Yin-Yang Flame Fusion Pill was still in its nascent, half-step stage and would require further modification in the future.
Since Xiao Li's Na Ling already contained a Fallen Heart Flame sub-fire, Xiao Li intended to directly refine the Yin Yang Twin Flames with his Physical Body this time. Otherwise, if the two different fires came into contact, there would likely be a phenomenon of different fire rampage.
"I'll risk it!" Xiao Li hardened his heart, first taking the Blood Lotus Pill, then grabbing the Yang Fire from the Yin Yang Twin Flames with one hand and directly swallowing it whole. Afterward, he took the ice spirit cold spring and the Yin-Yang Flame Fusion Pill.
After swallowing the Yin Yang Twin Flames, the destructive damage of the Yin Fire immediately raged within Xiao Li's body. Xiao Li's Meridians were directly burned, but soon, wherever the Yang Fire passed, the burned Meridians began to slowly heal.
To prevent the two different fires from touching, Xiao Li deliberately suppressed the Fallen Heart Flame, not allowing it to emerge. If the Fallen Heart Flame came out, the two different fires would fight within Xiao Li's body, so Xiao Li had been suppressing the Fallen Heart Flame.
Refining the Yin Yang Twin Flames was different from refining other different fires. When refining the Yin Yang Twin Flames, the Yin Fire burned in front, and the Yang Fire repaired behind, a painful yet joyful process. After the Yin Yang Twin Flames completed one cycle, the Yang Fire repaired in front, and the Yin Fire burned behind, directly burning the Meridians and organs within the body.
Fortunately, Xiao Li had the dual protection of the Blood Lotus Pill and the ice spirit cold spring. Even if the Yin Fire was strong, it could only burn Xiao Li and would not cause further damage.
As it currently appeared, everything was under Xiao Li's control, but he shouldn't celebrate too early.
After the Yin Yang Twin Flames became familiar with the Qi within Xiao Li's body, they became docile. The Yang Fire's repairing ability became stronger, and the Yin Fire was no longer as violent as before.
However, this did not last long. The Yin Yang Twin Flames seemed to discover something. In Xiao Li's Dantian, there was a spatial mass, which was the space opened by Na Ling to store the Fallen Heart Flame.
The Yin Yang Twin Flames directly attacked that space!
"Not good!"
Xiao Li felt the rampage of the Yin Yang Twin Flames and tried to suppress it with all his might. Just as Xiao Li was about to fully suppress the Yin Yang Twin Flames, the suppression on the Fallen Heart Flame weakened, so the Fallen Heart Flame also began to rampage!
The war between the Fallen Heart Flame and the Yin Yang Twin Flames began.
"It's over." Xiao Li felt that he was finished. At this moment, within his body, the Fallen Heart Flame transformed into a mighty fire snake, and the Yin Yang Twin Flames transformed into a Yin and Yang fish. The two fires engaged in a fierce struggle.
Puff —
The collision of the different fires directly made Xiao Li's body a mess. Xiao Li bled from his seven orifices, wanting to use Soul Power to separate the two different fires, but the two different fires exerted force simultaneously, repelling Xiao Li's Soul Power.
"I… I really played myself to death. Yun'er, Grandpa, Big Brother, Teacher, Zi Yan, I'm sorry." Xiao Li felt a flashback of his life before his eyes. The experiences of these nineteen years slowly began to appear before him.
Xiao Li's body fell straight down.
