Chapter 6: Obtaining the Heavenly Flame, Visiting the Ancient God's Mansion
"Does having a powerful background really mean one can do whatever one wants?" Han Feng couldn't help but think this to himself.
An Bufan naturally noticed Han Feng's hesitation and gave Hun Sha a look. Hun Sha immediately understood, and a terrifying pressure emanated from his body.
However, this oppressive aura was merely a trace of Hun Sha's true power. The pressure gradually rolled towards Han Feng.
Hiss...
Han Feng, who was still hesitating, felt the crushing pressure descending upon him. He couldn't help but gasp in shock; the pressure was terrifying!
Bang!
At the Dou Emperor realm, he was utterly unable to resist even the slightest bit of a Dou Saint's aura. His legs trembled uncontrollably, and in the end, he couldn't help but kneel.
He was utterly shocked; these five people were terrifying! He had underestimated them before. He thought they were strong, but now it was clear they were monsters.
"Han Feng, I'm not here to discuss this with you," An Bufan said coldly as he saw Han Feng kneeling.
He reached out and made a grabbing motion directly at Han Feng. Han Feng's face immediately twisted in pain.
"Ah..."
Finally, unable to bear the agony any longer, he began to scream. At that moment, deep blue flames rose from Han Feng's body.
The fire burned fiercely, exuding an extremely domineering aura. As the fire rose, the Dou Qi in the surrounding air scattered in all directions, as if fleeing. Clearly, even the natural energy of heaven and earth was afraid of the blue flames Han Feng had unleashed.
This was the terror of a Heavenly Flame.
The blazing blue flames rising from Han Feng's body were none other than the Sea Heart Flame, ranked fifteenth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking.
At this moment, the Sea Heart Flame was being forcibly separated from Han Feng's body, completely outside of his control. The forced separation caused Han Feng extreme pain, and he couldn't help but scream wretchedly.
Whoosh!
Finally, the Sea Heart Flame was fully extracted, turning into a palm-sized blue flame that floated into An Bufan's hand.
The Sea Heart Flame had been forcibly ripped from Han Feng. It wanted to flee, but it couldn't escape at all. It was firmly held in An Bufan's palm, and no matter how violently it struggled, it could not break free from his grasp.
An Bufan clenched his fist, and the struggling Sea Heart Flame was absorbed directly into his body. With his current cultivation level, forcibly absorbing a Heavenly Flame had absolutely no negative effect on him.
Having absolute strength had many advantages.
Han Feng, whose Sea Heart Flame had been forcibly removed, was now covered in cold sweat. He lay sprawled on the ground like a dead dog.
He was gasping for air, inhaling more than he was exhaling. At this moment, Han Feng was on the verge of death and had suffered unimaginable damage.
An Bufan put away the Sea Heart Flame and looked down at Han Feng with his hands behind his back.
"I've borrowed this Heavenly Flame. If you're not satisfied, feel free to come find me at the Hall of Souls. I am Hun Tiandi!"
An Bufan left the main hall with this bold statement, leading the way out. Now that he had the Heavenly Flame, how could he possibly stay here any longer? He still had many things to do and no time to waste.
Han Feng lay on the ground, watching the departing figures of An Bufan and his group. His fists clenched, and a sinister look appeared on his pale face.
He gritted his teeth. "Hun Tiandi, I will remember you. One day, you will pay a hundredfold for the pain I suffered today."
After leaving the Han residence and Maple City, An Bufan led the Four Demon Saints towards Jia Nan Academy.
His purpose was obvious: to visit the legendary Ancient God's Mansion, and to acquire the two Heavenly Flames residing within Jia Nan Academy.
"Aren't you four wondering why I stole that Medicine Emperor's Heavenly Flame?" On the way, An Bufan noticed the confusion of the Four Demon Saints and asked slowly.
"Clan Head, why is this?" Hun Sha stepped forward and asked.
Since the Clan Head had initiated the topic, he dared to ask. If the Clan Head hadn't intended to speak, Hun Sha wouldn't have dared to question him even with ten times the courage.
"Have you ever heard of a cultivation technique? A technique that allows one to break through to the Dou God realm?" An Bufan said slowly, his voice utterly calm.
Boom!
An Bufan's calm words undoubtedly stirred up a storm in the ears of the Four Demon Saints. They were deeply shocked, exchanging glances that mirrored their disbelief.
Hun Sha gradually came to his senses, still reeling. "Clan Head, does such a technique actually exist on this continent?"
They had never heard of a technique that could guarantee reaching the Dou God realm. If these words hadn't come from the Clan Head, the Four Demon Saints would have dismissed them as nonsense.
But since the Clan Head said it, there must be some basis for it. If such a technique truly existed, it was terrifying to even contemplate.
"The continent is vast and full of wonders. What doesn't it have? You know of the last Dou God of the continent, Ancient God Tuo She, correct? How do you think he broke through to become a Dou God? He cultivated this specific technique and finally succeeded," An Bufan said softly, as if discussing something trivial.
But to the Four Demon Saints, this was earth-shattering news. They felt truly ignorant; they never knew such a secret existed behind the last Dou God.
"And what this technique requires, besides fighting, is Heavenly Flames. Why do you think I wanted to take Han Feng's flame?" An Bufan asked as he finished his explanation.
"The Clan Head is brilliant!"
Upon hearing An Bufan's words, the Four Demon Saints immediately shouted in unison.
"My Hun Clan has strived for a thousand years to produce a Dou God and become the sole overlord of this continent, but so far there has been no result."
"As the Clan Head, I can't wait any longer. Do you know why I am wandering the continent this time after emerging from seclusion?"
"This... We do not know!" The Four Demon Saints exchanged glances and replied respectfully.
"Within the Hun Clan, we are waiting for that thousand-year plan to be fully implemented. I wonder when that will be," An Bufan mused. "How about we first visit the legendary Mansion of Ancient God Tuo She? Maybe we can open it without the eight keys?"
