155: Break the tower, call Lin Xiu

Inside the Tower.

The crowd immersed in Cultivating was startled awake by a thunderous sound.

Xiao Yan opened his still dazed eyes and found that the surrounding Elders looked very grim, as if something major had happened.

“Go! Hurry!”

“You all must leave the Tower quickly, do not linger!”

“Leave the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower immediately!”

The Elders' voices were urgent and stern, carrying an undeniable authority.

Lin Xiuya and the others rose, exchanging glances, seeing confusion and bewilderment in each other's eyes.

They did not delay, nor did they ask questions.

It was clear that for the Elders to be so urgent, something major must have happened in the Tower.

Several people rushed upwards along the passage.

Xiao Yan was the last to leave. Before entering the passage, he looked at the deep hole in the center.

With the Azure Lotus Core Flame, he could clearly feel a scorching temperature inside, constantly gathering.

“Hurry up, this time the Fallen Heart Flame has completely erupted. The Seal below won't hold it for much longer.”

Yao Chen's voice timely echoed in Xiao Yan's mind.

“Teacher, even the Academy's Seal can't stop it? No way? This is Canaan Academy.”

Xiao Yan was startled, but his speed did not falter, and he quickly caught up with Lin Xiuya and the others.

“If it were simply to deal with the Fallen Heart Flame, Canaan Academy would naturally have no problem, but they want to utilize the Fallen Heart Flame, which ties their hands.”

Yao Chen's voice was low, “This might be your chance. Don't go too far from this Tower later.”

“Alright.”

A glint of light flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes.

Not long after they reached the ground and exited the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower, a blood-red, scorching flame violently surged out from the Tower's spire.

The ground shook violently.

Some people lost their footing and plopped onto the ground.

All eyes stared at the massive and ferocious head that suddenly emerged from the top of the Tower, completely stunned.

“Wh-what is that thing?”

Lin Xiuya stared blankly at the colossal entity made of flames.

He felt a familiar scent on the transparent fire python, somewhat similar to the Heart Flame used for body tempering not long ago.

Seeing the Fallen Heart Flame in such a complete form for the first time, Xiao Yan's throat subtly moved.

It looked no smaller than a sixth-rank Demonic Beast. Could he really swallow it?

“I didn't expect the Fallen Heart Flame to have evolved into such a form. At this moment, it is almost indistinguishable from an ordinary Demonic Beast.”

Yao Chen's voice carried a hint of surprise.

The shock the transparent fire python brought him was clearly not small either.

To evolve from a mass of invisible fire to this stage must have been through countless years of accumulation and condensation.

“Teacher, it has revealed itself now, and it's so terrifying. How do we deal with it? Directly capturing it is impossible, right?”

Xiao Yan asked urgently.

The Flame Mantra's evolution required devouring Heavenly Flames, and Heavenly Flames were hard to find. Now that the Fallen Heart Flame was right before his eyes, he couldn't miss it for anything.

“You alone certainly can't. Even if it were me, I could only try in my peak state.”

Yao Chen scoffed, “Wait. For now, we can only see what plans these Inner Academy Elders have.”

The Fallen Heart Flame had been imprisoned for so long. Now that it had finally broken through the Seal, it must harbor great resentment.

If it wanted to destroy the Inner Academy, those Elders would naturally not agree.

Hopefully, they can severely deplete the Fallen Heart Flame.

The Fallen Heart Flame was too strong at this moment. Even with the Bone Chilling Flame, he couldn't help Xiao Yan much.

The transparent fire python, extending from the top of the Tower, scanned its surroundings with a pair of pure white, triangular pupils. Everyone swept by its gaze felt a chill rise in their hearts.

Some of the more timid individuals turned pale, pushing their bodies backward with both hands and feet.

The Fallen Heart Flame seemed to be searching for something. After looking around and finding nothing, it raised its head and fixed its gaze on a black energy membrane above.

“Chirp!”

The transparent fire python suddenly let out a sharp hiss. Invisible sound waves rapidly spread, continuously impacting the energy wall.

The energy wall, upon impact, rippled violently.

It then opened its mouth again and spat out a massive, invisible flame.

The black energy membrane, upon contact with the flame, crinkled and peeled off layer by layer, dissipating into the air, much like a plastic film being scorched by fire.

Although the black energy membrane's defense was astonishing and formidable, encountering a seemingly relentless flame, its disintegration seemed to be only a matter of time.

“These Seals don't seem to have any effect on it.”

Xiao Yan murmured.

This was the first time he had seen such a terrifying Heavenly Flame.

He felt that even Yun Shan, if he were here, would probably not dare to endure the Fallen Heart Flame's scorching for long.

He had to get it!

As everyone watched the Fallen Heart Flame, Su Qian finally rushed out of the Tower with his people.

At the same time, Elders from various parts of the Academy also arrived one after another.

“It's bad. The Seals we laid before had no effect at all.”

“If it continues to burn like this, it will definitely break out of the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower.”

The Elders, who had been full of confidence before, now seeing the Fallen Heart Flame's actions, had worried expressions.

“Grand Elder, what should we do now?”

An Elder looked at Su Qian and asked urgently.

As the Elders guarding the Fallen Heart Flame in the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower, they were very clear about what a catastrophic disaster it would be for the Academy once the Fallen Heart Flame completely escaped the Qi Refining Tower.

“All of you, attack with full force! Don't let it continue to destroy the Seal.”

Su Qian's eyes flickered. He decided not to use the Formation Seal left by the Dean for now.

He turned around and looked not far away.

A large number of students gathered at the edge of the pit, looking out.

“Lin Xiu! Come quickly!”

Su Qian couldn't find him, so he had to call out.

As soon as his voice fell, the crowd outside erupted in an uproar.

“Lin Xiu? Which Lin Xiu?”

“How many Lin Xius can there be in the Inner Academy? What do you think?”

“No way, the Elder clearly wants to deal with that fire python. What's the use of calling Lin Xiu? Can he be an opponent?”

“Lin Xiu is a Dou Wang, after all.”

“Is a Dou Wang useful? Look closely over there, there are even Dou Huangs. Do we lack a Dou Wang?”

Almost all the students were somewhat bewildered.

A figure emerged from behind, carried by a pair of Dou Qi wings, and swiftly shot towards the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower.

“Chirp!”

Almost the moment Lin Xiu appeared, the transparent fire python, besieged by numerous Elders, suddenly fixed its gaze on him.

“It's afraid!”

“This is incredible. It doesn't care about so many Elders, yet it's afraid of Lin Xiu!”

Many students were startled by the change in the fire python's movements.

Since when did Lin Xiu's status in the Academy surpass that of an Elder?

“Teacher, the Grand Elder specifically invited Lin Xiu out. Do they somehow have confidence in dealing with the Fallen Heart Flame through the Fire Spirit?”

Seeing Lin Xiu appear, Xiao Yan's heart tightened, becoming very nervous.

“Uncertain. Let's wait and see.”

Yao Chen was also unsure for a moment.

He had witnessed Lin Xiu perform the Flame Soul Separation Technique before, and it could indeed seize his control over the Bone Chilling Flame.

However, this process was very short.

Furthermore, the Fallen Heart Flame was different from the Bone Chilling Flame. It was a pure flame, and its current state was stronger, far exceeding the Bone Chilling Flame he controlled in his current state.

Regardless of whether it could be resolved, Lin Xiu could certainly weaken the Fallen Heart Flame to some extent.

Perhaps this was their chance.

Yao Chen hoped to see Lin Xiu make a move.
