"There's also that purple haired girl. Her strength is pretty high too. All I can tell is that her true form is a magic beast, her physique is extremely tough, and her bloodline is very strange."
"She's a bit like an Ancient Void Dragon, but also somewhat like an Ancient Heavenly Phoenix. Very strange."
"I've already sent all this information back to the clan. As for how the clan plans to deal with it, that we don't know." The Hun Clan Young Clan Leader finished calmly.
"Let those old geezers in the clan worry about it." Hun Miesheng said indifferently, "If things turn impossible later, we just pull back. No need to throw away our lives for nothing."
"Mm." The Vice Hall Master and the Young Clan Leader both nodded.
Fight? Impossible. With that kind of terrifying lineup on the other side, fight what?
Staying alive is more important.
Besides, even if they really risked their lives and managed to snatch the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, they'd still have to hand it over to the clan. It would never end up in the hands of the three of them.
So this is just a mission. Why risk your life?
Once they made up their minds, the three of them immediately felt much more at ease.
"Young Clan Leader, take another look at that Xiao Yan?" the Vice Hall Master asked curiously.
Hearing this, the Hun Clan Young Clan Leader frowned slightly, but he still turned his head. His pitch black eyes gazed from afar at Xiao Yan, who was standing beside Wei Yang.
A moment later, he spoke, "This kid carries six different Heavenly Flames. Green Lotus Core Flame, Fallen Heart Flame, Wind and Thunder Fury Flame, Sea Heart Flame, Bone Chilling Flame, and Three Thousand Burning Flame. Heavenly Flames are extremely violent."
"When they make contact with each other, they'll definitely backlash. But he's able to let six of them coexist peacefully in his body. That must be because of his technique."
"As far as I know, years ago Yao Chen obtained a strange technique from an ancient ruin, one that can fuse Heavenly Flames together. If I'm not mistaken, that is the technique Xiao Yan is cultivating."
"The reason he could advance to Dou Sheng so quickly should have a lot to do with this technique. Of course, his own ability shouldn't be underestimated either. If it were an average person, even if I cultivated that technique, I'm not sure I could have done better than him."
"A technique that relies on devouring Heavenly Flames to rapidly increase one's strength?" Hun Miesheng nodded lightly, his tone neither approving nor disapproving.
The Vice Hall Master felt a bit surprised, but only that. Because the limitations of such a technique were obvious.
Xiao Yan might indeed have advanced quickly using it in the early stages. But so what? Once you reach the Dou Sheng level, it's basically useless.
Heavenly Flames ranked within the top ten are extremely rare and nearly impossible to find, and even if you find one, their help to a Dou Sheng is limited.
As for the top five? No need to mention it.
They're extremely few in number, and basically all have owners.
"Looks like Xiao Yan set his sights on the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame. Heh, gutsy kid." The Vice Hall Master sneered.
Hun Miesheng also shook his head.
This kid is probably doomed to be burned alive by Heavenly Flames sooner or later. With six Heavenly Flames already in his body, he still dares to target the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame?
Seriously, what can you even say to that? This is just seeking death.
"But we have to admit, he is a difficult opponent to deal with. Still, I should be able to kill him." The Hun Clan Young Clan Leader's lips curved slightly as he spoke slowly.
"Hehe, naturally. Young Clan Leader, even though you're only at late-stage Two-Star Dou Sheng, about the same as Xiao Yan, even I probably wouldn't be able to defeat you.
"At the same level, killing that Xiao Yan should be easy for you. Looks like the next Hun Clan Clan Leader position will definitely belong to you." The Vice Hall Master said with a grin.
Hearing this, the Hun Clan Young Clan Leader's lips moved slightly, but he turned to look at Hun Miesheng instead. "Whether that's the case still depends on the Hall Master's thoughts."
"Young Clan Leader, you're thinking too much. The Clan Leader has the power to shake heaven and earth. He has ruled the Hun Clan for a thousand years without losing any of his vigor. Talking about this now is a bit too early." Hun Miesheng smiled faintly and shook his head.
The Young Clan Leader lifted his eyelids, not continuing the sensitive discussion.
He wasn't stupid.
The current Clan Leader Hun Tiandi was in his prime. As long as he was around, the Young Clan Leader would always just be the Young Clan Leader, obediently bowing his head.
Some things were better left at one sentence. Say too much and it becomes dangerous.
He slowly closed his eyes.
Xiao Yan also withdrew his gaze from the three Hall of Souls members and turned toward the cracked sealing space. He asked quietly, "Everyone's just watching like this, not in a hurry to make a move?"
"They are probably all waiting. Waiting for the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame to weaken the seal. That will drain a lot of its energy. When it is just about to break through the space that is when they will choose to strike." Yao Lao stroked his white beard as he spoke.
Xiao Yan nodded slightly and glanced again at the three-man group from Hall of Souls. The Hun Clan Trio was indeed frighteningly strong, but right now, Xiao Yan felt unexpectedly relaxed. There was no pressure at all.
Because the strength on their side was overwhelmingly greater. Aside from the five of them standing openly, there were also Nan Wang and Bei Wang puppets hidden in the shadows. Against the Hun Clan Trio, they were simply on a crushing level.
If not for avoiding unnecessary complications and because capturing the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was their top priority, Xiao Yan wouldn't have minded getting rid of those three first.
"These three small fry? I could totally take care of them myself. Xiao Yan, how about I go beat them up first, you know, help you vent a little?" Zi Yan flexed her fists, clearly itching to move.
"No. Our goal this time is the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, don't mess around." Xiao Yan hurriedly grabbed Zi Yan.
"See? They've already prepared to run at any moment. I bet the moment you make a move, they'll be gone. No point wasting your energy." Wei Yang lifted his chin and said casually.
"Eh." Zi Yan's purple eyes widened instantly as she turned to look at Hun Miesheng's group.
Sure enough, the moment they sensed someone over here might make a move, all three of the Hall of Souls members stepped back in unison, obviously ready to flee at any time. The sight made Zi Yan's expression freeze for a moment, and even Xiao Yan and Yao Lao were speechless.
"Damn it, those three sneaky cowards!" Zi Yan stomped her foot violently and simply turned away, refusing to look at the Hun Clan Trio anymore.
At this distance, even with her being an early Six-Star and an Ancient Void Dragon, if Hun Miesheng and the others truly wanted to run, she could not stop them.
"They are not stupid. They know they can't win, so of course they won't stand there and fight you to the death." Wei Yang reached out and rubbed Zi Yan's head with a laugh.
"Hmph." Zi Yan snorted, but she wasn't angry about the head rub. Instead, her eyes half-closed slightly, looking as though she enjoyed it.
At this moment—
"Hehe, Brother Xiao Yan, so you also came to join in on the excitement." A cheerful laugh sounded from not far away, followed by the sharp sound of wind being split.
Several figures rushed toward them from the distance with lightning speed before stopping near Wei Yang's group.
Xiao Yan turned toward the newcomers, froze for a moment, then cupped his fists and smiled: "So it is Brother Huo Xuan. It has been a long time. I hope you have been well."
The newcomers were three people, and the leader was a handsome young man in white. He was from the Yan Clan, named Huo Xuan. He had met Xiao Yan years ago in the Gu Realm, and their relationship had been fairly good.
Beside him stood a red-robed woman with her face hidden beneath a veil, and on the other side was a purple-robed old man.
"Brother Xiao Yan is truly extraordinary. It has only been a few years, yet you have already reached the Dou Sheng realm." Huo Xuan cupped his fists in return, admiration evident in his voice.
"Hehe, Brother Huo Xuan, you are already a high-level Ban Sheng yourself." Xiao Yan smiled, though inside he felt deeply shaken.
Huo Xuan's rate of improvement was downright terrifying. In just a few years, he had jumped from Dou Zun all the way to high-level Ban Sheng. If Xiao Yan had not consumed the Bodhisattva Heart, he would have been left far behind.
"Hm? Your body…" As he was marveling, Xiao Yan scrutinized Huo Xuan carefully, then suddenly let out a surprised sound: "You refined a Heavenly Flame!"
"With the Elders' help, I was lucky enough to subdue the Eight Wasteland Destruction Flame from our clan. Otherwise, there is no way I would have advanced this quickly." Huo Xuan smiled.
