Chapter 186: Soul Cang Reveals His Hand Again, Dan Ta Old Ancestor Suspects
Soul Cang attacked Xiao Yan without any warning. Before anyone could react, that streak of light had already disappeared into Xiao Yan's body.
Xiao Chen said in a deep voice, "What did you do to him?"
Soul Cang said indifferently, "Don't be nervous, I just called out the guy inside him."
Xiao Chen looked puzzled.
At this moment, Yao Chen reacted and said, "That's right, Xiao Yan previously collected an ancient map left by Purifying Lotus Saint. At that time, a ray of light projected into his mind."
An ancient map left by Purifying Lotus Saint?
Dan Ta Old Ancestor and the others couldn't help but show a hint of envy in their eyes.
His luck was too good, wasn't it?
After hearing Yao Chen's words, Xiao Chen's tense body relaxed a little.
He already knew about the decline of the Xiao Clan, and he attached great importance to Xiao Yan, who possessed the last remaining bloodline of the Xiao Clan, not wishing for anything to happen to him.
Under everyone's gaze, Xiao Yan slowly closed his eyes. When he reopened them, a vast and boundless aura rose.
This aura was not like strength, but more like a temperament, one that only those who had once stood at the pinnacle of heaven and earth could exude.
Xiao Chen subconsciously took two steps back, a hint of wariness appearing on his face.
Dan Ta Old Ancestor's expression tightened, also slightly intimidated by the aura emanating from Xiao Yan.
At this moment, Xiao Yan's eyes were filled with milky-white light, his expression indifferent as he faced Soul Cang: "To prevent the demon flame from wreaking havoc, I deliberately left a contingency. Future fated individuals who encounter it can use it to deal with the demon flame. I didn't expect you to actually be able to seal it."
"I just happened to have a small trick up my sleeve," Soul Cang said with a slight smile.
Purifying Lotus Saint sighed, then suddenly said, "Can I see it again?"
Soul Cang was stunned, hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "You can."
A ray of light shot out from Soul Cang's body, transforming into a milky-white flame.
After thinking for a moment, Soul Cang formed a hand seal and pointed it towards the flame.
One of the Zhen Fen Six Imprints—
Suppress!
Nether Lotus Demon Flame immediately changed from a sealed state to a suppressed one.
"Spare me, spare me, I can assist you…" Nether Lotus Demon Flame pleaded.
The next second, it suddenly seemed to sense something and slowly turned around.
When it saw the faint figure shrouded on Xiao Yan's body surface, Nether Lotus Demon Flame's body and mind trembled violently!
"You, you, you're not dead?!" Nether Lotus Demon Flame shrieked.
Purifying Lotus Saint slowly said, "I am dead. This is just a residual image I left behind, to prevent you from breaking out of the seal and wreaking havoc on the continent in the future."
Nether Lotus Demon Flame angrily said, "I assisted you so wholeheartedly back then, why do you still guard against me even after you're dead?!"
Even though Purifying Lotus Saint was dead, it still had to be sealed in this Demon Flame Space.
Purifying Lotus Saint sighed, "Your nature is incredibly violent. I don't want you to bring disaster upon a region. If your temperament hadn't been like this back then, perhaps I would have let you go."
Nether Lotus Demon Flame refused to accept it: "Impossible, you're lying to me. You're completely holding a grudge against me for betraying you. So, even if you die, you want to imprison me, preventing me from gaining freedom for all eternity."
A hint of pain appeared on Purifying Lotus Saint's face. He had no disciples or children in his life and had long regarded Nether Lotus Demon Flame as his closest kin.
But precisely because of this, being betrayed by Nether Lotus Demon Flame was the most tragic event in Purifying Lotus Saint's life.
He didn't directly obliterate Nether Lotus Demon Flame's consciousness at the time, but chose to seal it, hoping that Nether Lotus Demon Flame could recognize itself.
However, it now seemed that Nether Lotus Demon Flame had not realized its own problems, but had become even more fanatical.
Purifying Lotus Saint no longer looked at Nether Lotus Demon Flame, turning instead to Soul Cang and saying, "Nether Lotus Demon Flame's consciousness has now formed, and it has also absorbed my legacy. It's not that easy to control. Do you need me to help you restore it to its original form?"
Nether Lotus Demon Flame roared and bellowed, various accusations and curses coming from its mouth.
Soul Cang formed hand seals, resealing it, then shook his head and said, "I appreciate your kindness, but I have a way to deal with Nether Lotus Demon Flame. For now, let's deal with this formation first."
"Good," Purifying Lotus Saint did not insist. Since the other party could seal it, he was confident in controlling Nether Lotus Demon Flame.
Purifying Lotus Saint conjured a mark and pointed it towards the sky.
The next second, the two large formations, upper and lower, stopped and slowly receded.
Purifying Lotus Saint's figure detached from Xiao Yan's body. Before completely dissipating, he looked at Soul Cang and said, "Treat it well."
With that, Purifying Lotus Saint's figure turned into specks of light and completely vanished.
The scene was somewhat silent.
No one expected that Purifying Lotus Saint, who was once closest to a Dou Di, would reappear in such a way.
"Everyone, you should leave first," Soul Cang said indifferently.
After the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation dissipated, the passage to the Demon Flame Space reopened, only the location was different.
Immediately after, Soul Cang looked at Xiao Yan: "You stay."
Xiao Yan suppressed his inner joy and nodded heavily, "Yes, Big Brother!"
Yao Chen's gaze swept over Xiao Yan, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes.
He knew that Xiao Yan staying had only one reason, and that was to devour the Heavenly Flame.
Could the third-ranked Nether Lotus Demon Flame give Xiao Yan the chance to become the next Purifying Lotus Saint in the future?
Yao Chen thought to himself.
At this moment, Dan Ta Old Ancestor said, "Soul Cang, since Nether Lotus Demon Flame has been sealed by you, I will not forcefully take it. However, I have one request that I hope you can remember."

Soul Cang looked at him.
Dan Ta Old Ancestor said, "No matter what, never hand Nether Lotus Demon Flame over to the Soul Clan. You are a member of the Soul Clan, so you should understand the Soul Clan's power and ambition better than us. Once they get their hands on the flame, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Soul Cang nodded, he understood the Soul Clan's ambition better than anyone.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "May I speak with you in private?"
Dan Ta Old Ancestor was momentarily stunned.
The two came to a distant spot, and Dan Ta Old Ancestor said, "What do you want to say?"
Soul Cang said, "I want to form an alliance with your Dan Tower, and I hope you can take the lead in integrating some forces."
Dan Ta Old Ancestor asked, puzzled, "Why?"
Soul Cang thought for a second and said, "Soon, there will be a disaster on the continent, and the number of casualties will be at least tens of millions."
Dan Ta Old Ancestor was slightly moved: "Is it related to the Soul Clan?"
Soul Cang nodded.
Dan Ta Old Ancestor was somewhat suspicious: "What's the evidence?"
Soul Cang thought for a moment and mentioned two locations for Dan Ta Old Ancestor to verify himself. If confirmed later, for specific cooperation, he could go to the Gama Empire to find the Cang Alliance Leader.
Dan Ta Old Ancestor seriously scrutinized Soul Cang for a moment and said, "I will go. I hope what you said is false, but I feel you are not joking."
Soul Cang was naturally not joking. The situation was becoming increasingly urgent, and he also needed to start recruiting helpers.
Dan Ta Old Ancestor then left with the people from Dan Tower; he also had questions to ask those people.
At this moment, in the Demon Flame Space, only Soul Cang, Xiao Yan, Yao Chen, and Xiao Chen remained.
A phantom figure floated out from Soul Cang's body.
"Cousin!" Looking at the other's appearance, Xiao Chen couldn't help but tremble, tears welling up in his eyes.
Xiao Xuan smiled slightly, beckoning Xiao Chen to walk into the distance, leaving the space for Xiao Yan and Soul Cang to talk.
Halfway there, he couldn't help but look back at the two standing together, a deep sense of relief on his lips.
It was truly not easy for the Xiao Clan to produce a junior like Xiao Yan, but it was even more gratifying that Xiao Yan could meet an elder brother like Soul Cang.
Xiao Xuan understood today's events very clearly. If Soul Cang had not participated, even if Xiao Yan had the contingency left by Purifying Lotus Saint in the end, he probably wouldn't have obtained the demon flame so easily, and perhaps the outcome would have been quite tragic.
On the other side.
Looking at Xiao Yan, whose mouth was almost grinning to his ears, Soul Cang couldn't help but laugh as well.
Slap!
Yao Chen couldn't help but slap Xiao Yan: "Can't you show some ambition? All you do is laugh. Don't you know what to say now?"
Xiao Yan glared at Yao Chen, not annoyed, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Big Brother."
Thank me? I want to thank you... Soul Cang thought to himself, as he took out the Nether Lotus Demon Flame.
