46: Divine Fire SectEver since everyone from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect left, Xiao Fei has been practicing even harder. Apart from practicing his soul power every day, he basically does nothing else.
However, since he has not yet reached level 70, Xiao Fei's soul power is progressing very slowly. According to current estimates, it will take an extra half a year for each subsequent level increase, which means it may take three years to reach level 70.
But now, Xiao Fei simply has no time. According to the original setting, in less than a year, the Spirit Hall will launch a war to destroy all the major sects. Although Blazing Fire Academy has expressed friendship to the Spirit Hall, it has not surrendered to the Spirit Hall. Who knows if the Spirit Hall will destroy Blazing Fire Academy at that time?
So Xiao Fei has been practicing more and more diligently recently, and he is getting more and more anxious. Even Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang can't stand it anymore. Huo Wu even forced Xiao Fei to go out for fun.
On this day, the dean called several people to his training room and said to Xiao Fei, "Xiao Fei, I don't know why you are so anxious now. Why do you have to practice so hard? No matter what happens now, I am here to support you. Although the several major sects have put a lot of pressure on me, it is not the time for you kids to fight hard. You should stabilize your mentality and move forward step by step. With your talent and strength, you will become a Titled Douluo in less than 20 years, and there will be very few people who can defeat you by then."
Xiao Fei shook his head and said, "Dean, I'm afraid you won't give me 20 years now. Now the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire are willing to pay an unimaginable price to win us over, which shows that they are in urgent need of power. They are so eager, which means they have sensed danger, especially the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Heaven Dou Empire."
"In the past, the three major sects could balance the Spirit Hall together. However, the Spirit Hall used a pope to exchange for the retreat of the Clear Sky Sect. On the surface, both sects suffered heavy losses and both suffered losses. But with the foundation of these two sects, it is very easy to cultivate a Titled Douluo."
"Although the Haotian Sect has retired, it has been accumulating strength. Although they cannot obtain resources from the outside world, they can still use their own foundation to develop themselves. Without the checks and balances of the Haotian Sect, the Spirit Hall has entered a period of rapid development. Theoretically speaking, the current strength of these two should be the strongest."
"Although the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is known as the world's number one auxiliary martial spirit, and has two Titled Douluo, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, its own potential is quite limited. Now that they have developed to the extreme, if no new forces join in, I am afraid they will start to go downhill."
"The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan has always had only one Titled Douluo, Yu Yuanzhen. Their external development is restricted, and there are many factions within. They are strong because of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul, but in fact, they have the least soul beasts of the lightning element, which is bound to limit their development."
"So I bet that in a year or five years, there will be major changes on the mainland, and this change may be the biggest in a hundred years. I estimate that at least one of the top three companies will be removed from the list. That's why I'm so nervous."
The dean looked serious and said, "Xiao Fei, I also realize that the mainland may undergo major changes, but not as fast as you said. I thought we still have at least ten years to develop steadily."
"In fact, I recently secretly met with the leader of the Fire Leopard Sect. The leader of the Fire Leopard Sect is about to reach the Titled Douluo, and the Fire Leopard Sect has secretly defected to the Spirit Hall. In addition to Hu Yanzhen in the Elephant Armor, I estimate that the lower four sects have all defected to the Spirit Hall. Then they may start the war even faster."
The dean thought for a moment in silence, then said, "Come with me to the Huo family's ancestral secret room."
The dean led everyone to the secret room he mentioned. This secret room was built in the backyard of the entire academy and was very close to the volcano. Obviously, except for herself, Huo Wu and the others had all been to these secret rooms. However, the dean did not sit down. Instead, he fumbled in a corner of the secret room for a while. Suddenly, the floor of this corner opened up, revealing a tunnel leading downwards.
The people walked down the tunnel, the air became hotter and hotter, and finally, when they finally reached the flat ground, they found a temple. Inside the temple were tablets of the family heads of past generations, and at the innermost was a statue made of unknown material, holding a box in its hand, waiting for the people to pay their respects to the statue and the tablet.
At this time, Huo Lie said, "Dad, why didn't I know there was such an ancestral hall at home?"
The dean said calmly: "I will tell you before I die, or when you succeed as the patriarch of the family."
The dean said, "In fact, our country has a very long history. About 10,000 years ago, the Huo family was also a very powerful sect. At that time, the sect was called the Divine Fire Sect. How many years has the Divine Fire Sect existed? I don't know. At that time, the Divine Fire Sect's sect address was in the Immortal Volcano. Because the Immortal Volcano is very suitable for people with the fire element to practice, the sect has many masters of Titled Douluo, and the sect master is the legendary 99th-level Extreme Douluo. Later, I don't know what happened. The Immortal Volcano began to erupt. In addition, because of the enemy, the sect master of the Divine Fire Sect died together with the enemy, and the Divine Fire Sect was gradually submerged in the Endless Volcano. The people of the sect gradually left the Immortal Volcano and developed in various places on the Douluo Continent."
"With the passage of ten thousand years, the Divine Fire Sect has completely disappeared in the long river of history. Now there are only two tributary sects in the world, our Blazing Fire Academy and the Fire Leopard Sect of the Xingluo Empire. The meditation methods of our two schools are adapted from the Divine Fire Sect's meditation method. It is said that in the Divine Fire Sect, there will be a purer fire element, which is more suitable for fire spirit masters to practice."
After that, the dean took the box from the statue's hand, opened the box with a special method, handed the parchment inside to Xiaofei, and said: "Xiaofei, I will give you the map now. The Undead Volcano is more suitable for the cultivation of the fire element. If you really want to become stronger, go there to find your own opportunity."
Xiao Fei nodded and took the parchment scroll.
Three days later, Xiao Fei, Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu left Chihuo Academy with the map. Huo Lie wanted to go with them, but was rejected by the three. The three said that only by experiencing battles and dangers can one become truly strong.
Watching the three people leave, Huo Lie suddenly asked the dean: "Dad, it's been ten thousand years. Does the Divine Fire Sect really still exist? Could it have been burned to ashes long ago?"
The dean shook his head and said, "Who knows? Oh, the opportunities and challenges in the Undying Volcano are the best for Huo Wu and the other three. Even if something unexpected happens on Douluo Continent, our Huo family will still have some roots left."
