Chapter Eighty-Five: Transcending the Heavenly Stage
"What? Xiao Lie was killed by Little Medicine Fairy?" Hearing the soul-communicating jade slip from Xie Ming, Xiao Xing Meng was indeed a little surprised. Although Xiao Lie's strength wasn't high, his luck wasn't inferior to Yao Lao and Xiao Zhan. Who would have thought that he fell here? He also said: "If it weren't for Xiao Yan and Xiao Lie refusing to give up at this time and killing Han Feng, with Little Medicine Fairy's personality, she shouldn't have killed Xiao Lie either."
"Haha, that Xiao Yan is really furious, and he's even sworn to kill his junior sister and Cai Xiang." Soul Clearwater said with a smile from the other side.
"Xiao Yan doesn't believe in heaven at all, what's the use of making an oath?" Xue Xing Meng sneered.
"It doesn't matter, what's important is that 'those people' have disappeared." Soul Clearing paused for a moment before continuing: "To be on the safe side and to protect my junior sister, I had Heavenly Venerable and Second Heavenly Venerable keep watch from afar, but there was no sign of those people at all. It's as if they vanished into thin air, just like when Xiao Li was killed and Xiao Yan was heavily injured. The opponent seems to have gone silent since we defeated them at the volcano last time. Not only did the person who came to inform us about the anomaly in the water never appear again, but even those who were originally by Xiao Yan's side are nowhere to be found."
"Oh? This is indeed intriguing." Xiao Xing Meng smiled and said: "Is it that the other party doesn't want to have a direct confrontation with us? Or is there another reason? This matter is full of weirdness. Since the other party is deliberately hiding, let's temporarily stop Soul Temple as well. As long as the object they want to protect is Xiao Yan, one day we will still meet face-to-face."
……
Spring goes and autumn comes, time flies, Xiao Xing Meng concentrates on finding the extraordinary water. On the Dou Qi mainland, all successful cultivators are focused individuals, and Xiao Xing Meng is no exception, he found it last year.
At the same time, Xiao Yan is also actively building a force called "Xiao Men", uniting the strong in the Black Corner Domain, preparing to return to the Ga Ma Empire to break through Yunlan Sect and rescue his father and retrieve the ancient imperial jade of the Xiao family. However, this matter is really unjust for Yunlan Sect.
Nowadays, Yun Luan Sect is still led by Yun Yun as the sect leader, and its reputation in the empire is not bad. Looking at the current situation, it seems that Xiao Yan is the villain. I wonder what expression Yun Yun will have when she sees Xiao Yan destroying Yun Luan Sect without distinguishing between right and wrong.
"Ah, I've finally found you!" Looking at the dark red water in front of him, which was only about half the size of a palm, Xiao Xing Meng felt that his nearly year-long search had not been in vain. The water in front of him was still burning fiercely, its temperature far surpassing even the异火 (strange fire), and it continued to absorb the fire elements from its surroundings.
"Water of a flame that burns... This is quite interesting, I wonder what the hetero flame would be like?"
One after another, the strange fires were launched at the water to attack it. The 18th ranked Wind Thunder Fury Fire, the 12th ranked Nine Dragons Thunder Flame Fire, and even the 6th ranked Nine Underworld Golden Ancestor Fire were all absorbed and burned by the strange water's elemental power. Only when facing the Pure Lotus Demon Fire did the strange water instinctively show a hint of fear, completely intimidated by the Pure Lotus Demon Fire.
"It's even more powerful than I imagined, this thing. If it can be refined, it might just allow the 'Taiyi Decision' to surpass the Heavenly Rank." Xiao Xingmeng muttered to himself, the strange water was full of mysteries, but its energy wasn't apparent, so the strength of the strange water often had to be experimented with to be known. Now that this strange water could burn the 6th ranked Nine Underworld Golden Ancestor Fire on the Strange Fire List, its power was absolutely not low. Now that the 'Taiyi Decision' has already reached the peak of the Heavenly Rank, whether it can become a super-Heavenly Rank technique depends on this!
Swallow that burning alien water in one gulp! That alien water can even burn the Nine You Gold Ancestor Fire, and its temperature is naturally extraordinary. However, for Xiao Xing Meng, who has the protection of Dark Water and Jing Lian's demonic fire, its temperature is not unbearable.
In the vast underground lava, a terrifying temperature accompanied by flames that kept rising, making it even more scorching, and even space seemed to be twisted here. The entire underground lava was shaken, and many volcanic mouths suddenly erupted, bringing devastating disasters to the surface.
Half a month later, an abnormally scorching breath slowly flowed out of Xiao Xing Meng's throat, indicating that the refinement of the heterochromatic water had been completed.
"After so many years, the Ta Yi Jue has finally reached the Super Heaven Stage level." Xiao Xing Meng clenched his fist and revealed a satisfied smile. In his previous life's battle with Tu She Gu Di, there was already a significant gap in their cultivation methods. The "Burning Key" is indeed a Super Heaven Stage cultivation method, whereas his previous life's high-level Heaven Stage cultivation method was at a disadvantage. "Fortunately, the energy of this alien water is high enough; otherwise, it would probably still be impossible to surpass the Heaven Stage. Water that can burn flames should be called 'Burning Flame Water'."
At the same time, the extremely violent Tenya Volcanic Belt has slowly calmed down over the past half month. The absorption of heterochromatic water has stopped, and fire elements have gradually filled this area. It seems that before long, this place will once again become a sacred training ground for fire-attribute cultivators.
Xiao Xing Meng emerged from one of the volcanic mouths, stretched his waist lazily, and then flew rapidly towards the direction of the Gamma Empire.
……
On a steep mountain peak, Xun Er was quietly sitting in meditation. After a moment, her slightly closed eyes slowly opened and she asked: "Ling Lao, is there any news about him?"
An old figure emerged, and Ling Ying hastily bowed to the girl, slowly explaining Xiao Yan's recent situation, including how Xiao Yan defeated his senior brother, and then due to conflicts with the Soul Temple, resulting in Xiao Lie's death.
"Soul Palace!" Xun'er's clear eyes flashed with a cold intent, and she said slowly: "No matter what, I will make you pay a price that is hard to bear!"
"Miss, please don't be impulsive. Our two clans have been at peace for a thousand years. If we go to war because of this matter, the consequences will be unbearable for anyone." Ling Lao knew that Xun Er's heart was willing to do anything for Xiao Yan, but the Soul Temple was not like the Cloudy Peak Sect, those third-rate forces. If Xun Er really did something that led to war between the two clans, the consequences would be unthinkable.
Xun'er calmed down after a while. She understood what Ling Lao said, but when she knew about Xiao Yan's situation, she couldn't help but get angry.
Ling Ying's gaze was fixed on Xun Er, and he continued cautiously: "Now, Xiao Yan has established a force called the Xiao Gate in the Black Corner Domain, preparing to take revenge on the Yunlan Sect."
After hearing this, Xun'er fell silent for a while. She knew that the disaster of the Xiao family was brought by the Gu tribe, and even she had a part of the reason. Now that Xiao Yan is taking revenge on innocent people, should she continue to remain silent?
The answer is self-evident, but sometimes the truth is not suitable for public declaration.
"Go down first." Xun'er waved her hand, sighed helplessly, and Ling Lao let out a long sigh in his heart and left. Only Xun'er was left, looking lost and desolate, with an even more lonely figure.
