Chapter 188: Exchanging Information, Gu Yuan's Bad Premonition
“The Host gifted Xiao Yan the Nether Lotus Demon Flame, triggering a reward…”
“The Host gifted Xiao Yan the Nether Lotus Demon Flame's consciousness, triggering a reward…”
“The Host gifted Xiao Yan the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, triggering a reward…”
“The Host gifted Xiao Yan the Nine Serene Wind Flame, triggering a reward…”
“The Host gifted Xiao Yan the Fire Cloud Water Flame, triggering a reward…”
“The Host gifted Xiao Yan the Eight Desolations Destruction Flame, triggering a reward…”
Opening the long-unused system, Soul Cang's vision was filled with a series of notifications.
Suddenly, he had five more Fire Spirits, and a complete legacy of the Purifying Lotus Saint.
Soul Cang didn't know how to describe his current mood.
He immediately accepted the Purifying Lotus Saint's legacy.
This legacy, from the system reward and the Nether Lotus Demon Flame's consciousness, was mostly based on its own exploration and summation, and was not complete.
After the system's feedback, it directly became a complete legacy.
It included a series of things like the Nightmare Heavenly Mist, the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation, and also the method to control the Demon Flame Space.
Soul Cang was beaming with joy.
He had originally thought that controlling the space would require spending a certain amount of time searching to find some information.
Now, all problems and worries were solved.
His head felt a sharp, splitting pain, then returned to normal.
After a while, Soul Cang's hands began to form seals, moving faster and faster, and a mysterious aura emerged in his palm.
Rumble!
The Demon Flame Space vibrated, and the roar was incessant.
Above, below, two massive formations reappeared, slowly rotating, and the space became solidified once more.
The Refining Heaven Ancient Formation appeared again.
Soul Cang looked at the large formation in the sky and nodded in satisfaction: “Using it to seal the space means I won't have to worry about being disturbed when absorbing the Fire Spirits.”
The five stood in a row, obediently.
In front of them, several other Fire Spirits curiously observed them, circling around.
“Go, go, go.” Soul Cang waved his hand, then swallowed the five Fire Spirits one by one, entering a state of cultivation.
…
On the other side.
After the Soul Demon Old Man, Gu Nanhai, and others emerged from the Demon Flame Space, they did not leave immediately, but chose to observe from outside.
Among everyone present, the Soul Demon Old Man understood the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation the most, and he was the first to choose to retreat.
At this moment, the Soul Demon Old Man was silent, his expression solemn.
Soul Destruction asked, “Is the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation that terrifying?”
The Soul Demon Old Man nodded: “In the history of the Soul Clan, there were clansmen who fought against the Purifying Lotus Saint, but they were all refined by the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation, with no survivors.”
Soul Destruction was silent.
Those recorded in the Soul Clan were often powerful individuals.
Such people were helpless against the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation, so it seemed that escaping was indeed the first choice.
Soul Wind suddenly said, “Is Soul Cang surely dead?”
The Soul Demon Old Man nodded again, without the slightest hesitation.
Because even his strength couldn't resist it, let alone Soul Cang, whose strength was piled up by secret techniques; he absolutely couldn't resist the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation.
A hint of a smile flashed in Soul Wind's eyes, and he sighed, “What a pity for the Nether Lotus Demon Flame.”
The Soul Demon Old Man smiled, “Plans can't keep up with changes. If the Lei Clan Leader knew about this, I believe he wouldn't blame you.”
Soul Wind smiled, a little forced.
What he was truly worried about was not being scolded, but his strength.
If he could get the Nether Lotus Demon Flame, it would definitely belong to him; it was something that could enhance his strength.
Soul Destruction pondered, “What should we do now? Continue to wait?”
The Soul Demon Old Man nodded: “Exactly.”
Not far away, Gu Nanhai was comforting the agitated Xun'er.
“Miss, it's dangerous inside, you can't go in.” Gu Nanhai's attitude was firm.
For other matters, he could accommodate and make concessions, but when it came to life safety, Gu Nanhai had to maintain his stance.
Xun'er was very sad; Xiao Yan was still inside, and he hadn't come out yet!
Gu Nanhai continued, “That's the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation, a formation set up by the Purifying Lotus Saint. If you rush in now, you're seeking your own death. Even the Soul Demon Old Man is wary, let alone you?”
Hearing this, Xun'er was slightly startled, and without hesitation, she pulled out a jade slip and crushed it.
Her speed was so fast that Gu Nanhai only managed to see it clearly and couldn't stop her at all.
Before long, the void trembled, and a figure stepped out from within.
Gu Yuan's face was full of worry, and upon finding that Xun'er was not in danger, his expression softened slightly.
“Father, quickly go save Xiao Yan! He's inside, and he's in great danger now!” Xun'er seemed to have found her savior.
Gu Yuan frowned, looked at Gu Nanhai, and asked, “What happened?”
Gu Nanhai replied, “Lei Clan Leader, the Nether Lotus Demon Flame has mastered the Purifying Lotus Saint's legacy and unleashed the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation. I took Miss and ran out ahead of time.”
“Refining Heaven Ancient Formation?” Gu Yuan was slightly startled, and a solemn expression appeared on his face. Clearly, he also understood the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation.
Xun'er saw that Gu Yuan was not moving and cried out in distress.
Gu Yuan sighed, “Girl, that Refining Heaven Ancient Formation once refined even the Soul Clan's strongest clan leader in history. I don't have that ability.”

Xun'er said sadly, “Isn't Xiao Yan surely dead?”
Gu Yuan did not speak, but his attitude clearly indicated that he agreed with Xun'er's words.
Even if the controller of the Refining Heaven Ancient Formation was only the Nether Lotus Demon Flame, the power of the formation could not be ignored.
Just then, everyone suddenly turned their heads in unison, looking at the distant void.
Only a passage slowly opened.
It was the passage that previously led to the Demon Flame Space.
“The passage has opened again, have they resolved the crisis?” Someone exclaimed.
Soul Wind subconsciously looked at the Soul Demon Old Man.
“Don't act rashly, it might be a trap by the Nether Lotus Demon Flame.” The Soul Demon Old Man said in a deep voice.
Soul Destruction agreed, “It's possible. It pretended to be sealed before, and perhaps opening the passage now is similar, deliberately trying to lure us in.”
In the distance.
Gu Yuan also made no move, just gazed at the passage.
Xun'er was crying and making a fuss nearby, wanting to go in, but was eventually knocked unconscious by Gu Yuan.
After waiting for a moment, some people were restless.
However, no one came out from inside, and they didn't dare to act recklessly.
One must know that there were many powerful individuals inside; the Dan Ta Old Ancestor alone was enough to make everyone present take notice.
If there really was no danger, he should have come out by now.
After waiting for a moment, the passage slowly closed again.
The Soul Demon Old Man breathed a sigh of relief and said decisively, “It really was a trap by the Nether Lotus Demon Flame!”
He looked at Soul Destruction and Soul Wind, saying, “Let's go, we're returning to the clan.”
Now that the passage was closed and the Heaven and Earth Tides were about to end, there was no point in waiting any longer.
Moreover, the Soul Demon Old Man also knew that among the three of them, no one was willing to take the lead and go inside to check.
The Medicine Clan also left accordingly.
The Lei Clan Leader walked towards the Gu Clan, bowed slightly to Gu Yuan, and said, “Gu Clan Leader, no one from the Yan Clan came this time. Have you been in contact with the Yan Clan recently?”
No one from the Yan Clan participated in the Nether Lotus Demon Flame?
Gu Yuan was slightly startled, and a vague bad premonition arose in his heart. He thought for a moment and said, “Not yet. I'll try to contact them when I get back. Regardless of the situation, I will communicate with your Lei Clan Leader.”
The Lei Clan Elder nodded: “Alright, I will also report today's situation to the Lei Clan Leader when I return.”
“Be careful on your way.” Gu Yuan said.
After seeing the Lei Clan and others leave, Gu Yuan casually drew a line, opened a passage, and then led the Gu Clan members into it.
Back at the Gu Clan.
Gu Yuan had people keep an eye on Xun'er and pay attention to comforting her emotions.
Afterward, Gu Yuan tried to contact the Yan Clan.
However, despite using all methods, there was still no response.
Could something really have happened?
Gu Yuan's heart sank, and he sent a message to the Lei Clan Leader, inviting him to the Gu Clan.
