Within the vast and boundless Star Domain, the air felt exceptionally dry and scorching. High heat permeated everywhere, and even the air itself appeared distorted, as if it were being roasted by raging flames. At first glance, it gave one an illusory feeling.
In the very center of the Star Domain, Xiao Se sat cross-legged with his eyes tightly shut. Terrifying waves of high heat continuously diffused from his body. Vaguely, a few purple-black flames darted out from his skin, rising up and enveloping his entire body.
At this moment, Xiao Se's mind was completely immersed in the strange Fusion of strange fires within his body.
Swallowing and refining the Three Thousand Burning Flame—perhaps because Xiao Se already controlled four types of strange fire—this refinement was unexpectedly smooth. Under the calcination of the golden fused strange fire, the Three Thousand Burning Flame also showed a faint tendency to Fusion.
Although the process was extremely slow, it was quite smooth, and no difficulties arose.
At this speed, barring any accidents, Xiao Se would be able to fully refine the Three Thousand Burning Flame within half a month.
By then, he would possess five types of strange fire within his body.
As the refinement of the Three Thousand Burning Flame gradually neared completion, the air temperature within the Star Domain became higher and higher.
Eventually, the entire Star Domain was almost shrouded in a sea of flames.
Meanwhile, the aura diffusing from Xiao Se's body was also continuously strengthening.
At the entrance of the Star Domain, outside the spatial gate.
Xiao Xue gazed at the stone spatial gate, her willow-leaf eyebrows slightly furrowed, and asked softly, "Mom, it's been half a month already, why hasn't Dad come out yet?"
Bibi Dong gently smoothed the hair on Xiao Xue's forehead and comforted her softly, "Don't worry. With your father's current abilities, even a Peak Dou Zun expert cannot do anything to him. We can just wait here in peace. It is common for Dou Zun experts to go into seclusion for a year or so; it is nothing strange."
Although she was comforting her, there was a faint look of worry between Bibi Dong's brows. If it were just a normal seclusion, she wouldn't be worried. But this time he was swallowing a strange fire, and it was the Three Thousand Burning Flame, ranked ninth on the strange fire ranking list, which even the Dan Ta Three Giants, whose cultivation had reached the Peak Dou Zun, could not subdue. The danger was imaginable.
"Sigh, this bad guy never lets anyone rest easy." With a bitter laugh in her heart, Bibi Dong rubbed her forehead with some annoyance.
Qing Lin, who was to the side, heard their conversation and smiled, "Sister Dong'er, Sister Xue'er, Big Brother is fine; he is about to come out of seclusion."
She sat lazily on the stone steps, hugging her knees. Her supple, boneless waist and delicate body curved into a charming arc, faintly revealing a touch of allure.
Compared to the concern of Bibi Dong and her daughter, Qing Lin, who possessed naturally strange pupils, was able to know Xiao Se's current situation within the Star Domain quite clearly.
Hearing this, the two women nodded. Just then, Xiao Yi Xian walked in from outside the passageway, carrying food.
"Everyone must be hungry; it's time to eat."
By the Dou Zun stage, one has long since transcended the category of Mortal and does not need food to stave off hunger.
However, because Xiao Se insisted on having three meals a day, this habit had been kept by the women. Except for when in seclusion, they basically never missed a meal.
"Wow, Sister Xian'er, did you make this? It smells so good!" Qing Lin stood up and moved closer, first taking out a set of tables and chairs from her storage ring, then helping Xiao Yi Xian serve the dishes.
Bibi Dong and Xiao Xue also set out the bowls and chopsticks.
"Hehe, I just made a little something. Compared to that guy Xiao Se, my cooking skills are nothing," Xiao Yi Xian said with a charming smile.
"That's right. Once, when we were in the Tagor Desert, I also ate food made by Big Brother. It was delicious," Qing Lin said, lifting her cute little face.
"Mom, can Dad cook too?" Xiao Xue looked at Bibi Dong with some curiosity; for so long, she had never heard of it.
"Mm." Bibi Dong lightly lifted her beautiful, fair chin. In her mind, she recalled the scene from her youth when Xiao Se controlled her body to cook. A hint of longing appeared on her noble face. Those five years were the happiest time of her life.
"Then when Dad comes out, I must make him cook a proper meal for me. From childhood to now, I have never eaten food cooked by Dad." Xiao Xue puffed out her cheeks in slight frustration.
Just then, the spatial gate shattered. A vast aura that had been dormant for half a month suddenly permeated the air. Immediately after, a sharp screech suddenly erupted from within the spatial gate leading to the Star Domain.
The screech broke through the constraints of the spatial passageway and soared straight into the clouds.
Within the screech, there was an exceptionally vigorous Qi, so the sound echoed continuously in the sky like thunder, spreading to every corner of the Little Pill Tower.
Under this screech, figures continuously flashed out from various places in Holy Pill City, appearing outside the Little Pill Tower, gazing at the location of the Little Pill Tower with astonished eyes.
The Elder within the Little Pill Tower even directly tore open spatial rifts, appearing in the spatial passageway at the entrance of the Star Domain.
Upon detecting that powerful aura, the astonishment in their eyes directly turned into shock.
"Is this Xiao Se? How did his aura become so much stronger all of a sudden? I'm afraid he has reached the Peak of the 7-Star Dou Zun."
Feeling the ferocity of this aura, the Little Pill TowerElders gathered in the spatial passageway couldn't help but gasp. This speed of strength improvement was truly inconceivable.
Half a month, an improvement of four whole stars.
If this were spread out, it would likely cause a huge uproar in the outside world. One must know, an ordinary Dou Zun might not even be able to improve their cultivation by one star in seven or eight years.
However, when everyone thought of Xiao Se's age, they immediately felt relieved.
Yes, Xiao Se is not even nineteen years old. Compared to his age, a four-star surge in cultivation in half a month seems to have become unremarkable.
"He really is a monster. It's a pity that Yao Chen didn't choose him when he was at the Xiao Family," Xuan Yi, who had a soft and voluptuous figure, muttered to herself at the very front of the passageway.
The thunder-like screech eventually had to end. However, the moment the screech disappeared, suddenly, layers of thick, dark clouds emerged in the blue sky outside, fierce winds raged between heaven and earth, and lightning flashed and thunder rumbled.
This sudden scene left everyone in the entire Holy Pill City stunned, their faces filled with confusion.
"Could this strange phenomenon of heaven and earth be because some Senior at the Little Pill Tower is refining a Medicinal Pill?" someone outside the Little Pill Tower guessed.
Inside the Little Pill Tower's spatial passageway, Xuan Yi was also stunned by this scene. After a moment, she pondered aloud, "This is actually a Heaven RankCultivation Technique."
Within the Star Domain.
"Has the Flame Mantra evolved to Heaven Rank?"
At this moment, Xiao Se also woke up from his Cultivate. He stared at his palm, then closed his eyes again, moved his mind, and operated the Flame Mantra.
In an instant, the energy of heaven and earth within a hundred-foot radius of the Star Domain surged up like boiling water, then transformed into streams of pure Qi, continuously pouring into Xiao Se's body, to be absorbed and refined by him.
