Chapter 427: Xiao Yan Obtains Another Green Flame
In a vast, lush mountain range, towering ancient trees stretched hundreds of meters into the sky, their massive canopies blocking out the sunlight and casting vast patches of shade below. This secluded wilderness was rarely visited by people. Occasionally, a beast's roar would echo through the forest, startling flocks of colorful birds into the air, creating a spectacular scene.
Deep within the endless mountain range, a lone peak pierced the sky like a sharp blade. Though not large, the mountain was incredibly steep, its smooth, near vertical cliffs making it nearly impossible for ordinary magical beasts to climbunless they could fly.
At the peak, shrouded in drifting clouds, a black robed young man sat cross legged. If one looked closely, they would see an unyielding determination in his eyes.
Behind him, a massive black ruler was stabbed into the ground this was Xiao Yan, who had traveled from the Northwest Region to Central Plains.
At this moment, a powerful Dou Qi aura surged from his body. Clearly, his miraculous luck had allowed him to rise once again!
However, what was most peculiar was the green hue of the Dou Qi swirling around him. Even though he had lost the Nether Poison Flame, his energy still radiated an emerald green glow!
Floating behind him was a faint white mist in human form his teacher, Yao Chen.
Yao Chen gazed at Xiao Yan with satisfaction.
This brat's fortune was absurdly good.
Ever since they arrived in Central Plains, his strength had skyrocketed.
Not only that, but he had obtained various rare Dou Qi techniques, the most notable being "Three Thousand Lightning Movement".
However, it wasn't because this technique was particularly powerful
Rather, it was because it was the foundation for training "Three Thousand Thunder Phantom"!
As for the green Dou Qi surrounding Xiao Yan…
That came from a new Heavenly Flame he had obtained Glazed Flame!
Of course, "Glazed Flame" was just a name Xiao Yan had come up with himself.
The true identity of this Heavenly Flame was something else entirely.
Yao Chen knew very well that this was not just any green flame.
Its true name was "Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Flame" ranked 22nd on the Heavenly Flame list, even higher than Xuan Huang Flame.
Unlike most flames, this one was considered the ancestor of all beast flames.
It had been born in a terrifying beast valley, where countless powerful creatures had perished over millennia.
Their lingering souls and violent energies had fused together, forming this extremely rare flame.
The Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Flame was incredibly scarce on the Dou Qi Continent, but among Heavenly Flames, it was one of the easiest to be born.
With Yao Chen's knowledge of its location, he had naturally led Xiao Yan straight to it.
Back when Yao Chen was alive, he never cultivated the Flame Mantra, so he only sought out the strongest Heavenly Flames available.
Thus, he had never bothered with the Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Flame.
But now…
It was a perfect opportunity for Xiao Yan to claim it.
However, Yao Chen was not truly giving this flame to Xiao Yan permanently.
He was merely letting him borrow it for now.
Currently, Yao Chen was incredibly excited.
He had great aspirations
He wanted to reclaim his former position as Medicine Venerable!
The Guardian Elder had already promised him a stronger body.
That useless Yun Shan's corpse was unworthy of him!
A Dou Zong's body?
What a joke.
What Yao Chen truly deserved was a Dou Zun's body!
As for Xiao Yan…
If he could acquire just two more powerful flames, he would be able to complete his mission.
And when the Guardian Elder arrived in Central Plains…
Yao Chen's own power would rise to unimaginable levels.
Thinking of this, Yao Chen could barely contain his excitement!
He turned to look at Xiao Yan, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"Come on, Xiao Yan! Keep working hard!"
"My little piggy bank, you better not let me down!"
"Find a Heavenly Flame ranked even higher!"
Oblivious to his master's schemes, Xiao Yan remained deep in thought, contemplating how to obtain Wind Lightning Pavilion's "Three Thousand Thunder Phantom" technique.
Meanwhile, at Wind Lightning Pavilion's Northern Division…
The Qifeng Mountain was famous across the entire Northern Region of Central Plains.
Not because it housed a divine dragon or phoenix…
But because it was home to Wind Lightning Pavilion's Northern Division!
Of course, whether or not a phoenix actually resided here was a mystery.
But considering that a certain "Miss Feng" with monstrous talent lived here, the name "Qifeng" (Perching Phoenix)" seemed fitting.
Wind Lightning Pavilion was divided into four branchesEast, South, West, and North.
Among them, the Eastern Pavilion was the strongest, while the other three served as supporting divisions.
Even so, each division alone was strong enough to rank among Central Plains' top tier sects.
And when all four branches united, their power was comparable to the elite factions of Central Plains.
Wind Lightning Pavilion was, without question, a true powerhouse in the Northern Region.
The Qifeng Mountain range was both steep and majestic, shrouded in thick mist that gave it an ethereal, almost divine appearance.
At its peak stood a colossal silver tower
The North Thunder Tower.
This massive structure pierced the clouds, glowing brilliantly with silver lightning.
From within, one could constantly hear the rumble of thunder.
This place was a sacred training ground for Wind Lightning Pavilion's elite disciples.
Only those with exceptional talent were permitted to cultivate inside.
It was very much like the Heavenly Flames Training Tower of Jia Nan Academy
A place that only inner disciples could enter.
At the top floor of the North Thunder Tower, inside a vast grand hall, a group of figures sat together.
A powerful and oppressive aura filled the air, making even the guards outside tremble in fear.
This meeting was so serious that it could shake all of Wind Lightning Pavilion!
At the center of the grand hall, atop a silver throne, sat a man in a flowing silver robe.
Tiny arcs of lightning crackled around his seat.
His gray silver pupils flashed with flickering bolts of electricity as he swept his gaze across the room.
His voice was calm, yet carried an overwhelming pressure.
"The Soul Thunder Monuments of Elder Yun and Elder Feng…"
"Have both shattered simultaneously."
The moment these words fell, the three elders below him turned pale.
The Soul Thunder Monuments were an artifact that held a fragment of their souls.
They would only shatter upon death.
Which meant
Elder Shen Yun and Elder Shen Feng… were dead.
More importantly…
They had both died at the exact same moment.
These two were formidable experts.
If someone had managed to kill them so easily…
That meant
Their opponent was far stronger than them!
The three elders exchanged grim looks.
In the Northern Region of Central Plains…
Who would dare challenge Wind Lightning Pavilion?!
The leader's eyes gleamed coldly.
"Someone is targeting Wind Lightning Pavilion in the Northern Region?"
"Could it be Myriad Sword Pavilion?"
