The moment Xiao Yan emerged from the magma wielding a smaller version of the Fallen Heart Flame, Su Qian's eyes widened in disbelief.
He stared intently at the small Fallen Heart Flame in Xiao Yan's hand.
"So there really is a smaller version of the Fallen Heart Flame underground in the academy."
Thinking this, Su Qian's gaze immediately burned with fervor.
This smaller version of the Fallen Heart Flame was different from the one that already possessed sentience; it was still in a state of ignorance and confusion, making it the easiest to deceive.
If properly nurtured, this Fallen Heart Flame could not only provide excellent inner fire for the inner academy students but also become another powerful protective weapon for Canaan Academy—a truly win-win situation.
Therefore, when Xiao Yan presented this smaller version of the Fallen Heart Flame to Su Qian, Su Qian immediately bowed respectfully to him.
"Elder Yan Xiao, your help to Canaan Academy is unparalleled, perhaps even comparable to the Dean's.
On behalf of everyone in the Inner Academy, I salute you!"
Seeing Su Qian's expression, Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head, then looked at Su Qian and said, "Elder, you don't need to worry about me refining that Fallen Heart Flame this time, right?"
"Not at all, Elder Yan Xiao, please take it!" Su Qian said generously.
In fact, even if Xiao Yan wanted to forcibly take the Fallen Heart Flame now, he wouldn't dare to say no.
After all, even a Dou Zun expert was this person's subordinate. If Xiao Yan wanted to forcibly take it, all of them combined might not be enough to defeat one of his henchmen.
Moreover, the returns Xiao Yan has brought to Canaan Academy have already far exceeded the original Fallen Heart Flame.
If he were to still stop Xiao Yan, then Su Qian would be too ungrateful.
Seeing Su Qian's reaction, Xiao Yan smiled and nodded, then gently pointed at the strange fire cage above the lava sea.
In an instant, the strange fire cage vanished into thin air, and freed from its restraints, the transparent, invisible snake tried to escape back into the lava.
"I really didn't expect that after so long, your intelligence still hasn't been completely eradicated!"
Looking at the fleeing snake, Xiao Yan frowned slightly, then took out his Little Soul Palace and summoned Venerable Heavenly Fire.
"Young Master, what are your orders!"
Upon seeing Xiao Yan, Venerable Heavenly Fire smiled.
His boasting to You Mo had just made him realize even more clearly just how powerful this guy's background was.
Therefore, his gaze towards Xiao Yan became increasingly respectful and courteous.
"This Fallen Heart Flame once belonged to you. Go and bring it back to me."
Xiao Yan pointed at the invisible snake.
Hearing this, Venerable Heavenly Fire was slightly taken aback, then nodded with a complicated expression.
"Understood, Young Master, I'll take care of it right away!"
In an instant, his soul transformed into a streak of light and rushed towards the invisible serpent. Just a moment later, Xiao Yan saw Venerable Tianhuo float out again, this time holding another invisible serpent in his hand.
Compared to the previous Fallen Heart Flame, this Fallen Heart Flame was as quiet as a newborn baby, no different from the smaller version.
Clearly, its intelligence had been completely erased by Venerable Tianhuo.
After all, the Fallen Heart Flame had originally belonged to Venerable Tianhuo, and its current intelligence was only born after Venerable Tianhuo released it before his death.
If it had been able to resist before, it might have been able to put up some resistance, but having had most of its power weakened by Xiao Yan, it was now powerless to resist.
Looking at the invisible serpent, a smile flashed across Xiao Yan's lips as he accepted it.
"Well done. In the future, I will specifically find the corpse of a Dou Zun expert to help you revive!"
Xiao Yan smiled slightly.
"In that case, thank you very much, Young Master."
Venerable Tianhuo nodded with a smile, then a complex expression appeared on his face.
"However, please treat this Fallen Heart Flame well in the future."
"Understood."
Xiao Yan nodded slightly, it was clear that Venerable Tianhuo had a deep affection for the Fallen Heart Flame.
After receiving Xiao Yan's reply, Venerable Tianhuo no longer hesitated and transformed into a stream of light, flying back to the Small Soul Palace.
After everything was finished, Xiao Yan looked at the invisible little snake in his hand with a burning light in his eyes.
Even through a layer of Dou Qi mixed with strange fire, he could feel the terrifying temperature emanating from it.
But none of that mattered anymore, the moment to devour the Fallen Heart Flame was approaching.
"I just wonder if my strength will be able to break through to the Dou Zun realm after swallowing this Fallen Heart Flame."
Thinking this, a hint of excitement appeared on Xiao Yan's face.
After a brief farewell to Su Qian, he swiftly left the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower and found a secluded valley not far from Canaan Academy, finally stopping slowly.
"Next, it's time to devour this Fallen Heart Flame."
Looking at the transparent snake in his palm, Xiao Yan smiled, took out several medicinal ingredients for devouring different flames, and then put the invisible snake into his mouth. After
refining the Fallen Heart Flame, he would possess four different flames, allowing him to truly unleash power that would make even Dou Zun experts tremble.
Whether it was the four-colored Buddha's Wrath Lotus or the Five-Wheel Fire Technique, comparable to a Heaven-Rank Dou Technique, these would be his true trump cards.
Although the high temperature after the Fallen Heart Flame entered his body still made Xiao Yan somewhat uncomfortable, having devoured different flames many times before, he was already quite adept at it.
Moreover, this Fallen Heart Flame had long since had its sentience erased by the Heavenly Flame Venerable. Under Xiao Yan's mental control, this ball of Fallen Heart Flame was quickly sent into Xiao Yan's meridians.
Finally, it began to circulate along the cultivation route of the 'Burning Technique'.
However, no matter how familiar Xiao Yan was with the Burning Technique and the fusion of different flames, he still needed to use the fighting spirit of the Burning Technique to slowly harmonize the violent power attributes between the different flames.
Fortunately, Xiao Yan already had experience and was not anxious at all, but calmly and slowly fused them.
Time passed slowly like this, and in the blink of an eye, almost the entire summer had passed.
The grass and trees in the valley changed from lush green to deep emerald green, while that figure remained motionless, sitting there silently like a statue.
Compared to Xiao Yan's quietness, Canaan Academy was much more lively.
After the gate of the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower reopened, many students found that the usually domineering Heart Flame was actually milder than before.
Many people were even able to advance to another level to improve their strength.
Compared to the students' surprise, Han Yue was even more astonished and bewildered.
When she unexpectedly received Su Qian's notification, Han Yue felt a surge of emotion regarding her unintentional act of kindness that day.
"Yue'er, you now have three more opportunities to temper your body with the Origin Heart Flame! Elder Yan Xiao even prepared three Heart Flame Tempering Pills for you.
Tsk tsk, with resources like this, even if you do nothing, you can easily break through to the Dou Wang realm."
Su Qian's congratulatory voice still echoed in Han Yue's mind.
She had only acted out of empathy.
After all, if she were forcibly interrupted during her secluded cultivation, she would probably be in a bad mood, so she couldn't help but say a few words for Xiao Yan.
She just hadn't expected that those two words would bring such a great reward.
Each opportunity to temper one's body with the Heart Flame is incredibly precious; if she were to sell one of her spots, it would fetch an astronomical price in fire energy.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's young face involuntarily reappeared in Han Yue's mind.
Han Yue didn't know the secrets of the Fallen Heart Flame; after all, even among the inner courtyard elders, few knew about its changes. However, from Su Qian's polite expression, Han Yue could tell that Elder Yan Xiao's strength and status were such that even the Grand Elder had to show him some respect.
Not to mention anything else, just the rumors circulating among the students that Elder Yan Xiao possessed peak sixth-grade alchemy skills and peak Dou Huang strength—these two alone were already extremely formidable.
"This Elder Yan Xiao is truly a remarkable person," Han Yue thought to herself.
"I just wonder if he's as young as he looks."
Thinking this, Han Yue immediately shook her head.
"What are you thinking? If that's the case, it's terrifying! Such talent would be considered exceptional even in Zhongzhou."
Thinking this, Han Yue felt a faint sense of anticipation for some reason.
"Boom!" Dark clouds pressed down on the sky, rumbling thunder echoed, and torrential summer rain raged across half of the Black Corner Region.
In a small valley not far from Canaan Academy, a long-silent figure slowly opened his eyes.
As his eyes opened, an intensely hot aura rapidly spread throughout the valley.
In an instant, the previously damp air in the valley became incredibly dry.
The young man looked up at the sky, and a tiny, seven-colored flame, like glass, burst forth from his eyes.
These two small flames dried the sky wherever they passed, eventually piercing through the rain and falling into the clouds.
In an instant, the previously dark clouds evaporated, as if a hole had been abruptly torn in a parasol.
Golden sunlight, no longer obstructed by the clouds, instantly bathed the entire valley in gold.
Amidst this gold, Xiao Yan slowly stood up, feeling the surging energy within him, a smile playing on his lips.
After absorbing the Fallen Heart Flame, his strength had reached
the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Zong realm!
