Chapter 723: The Panicked Start of Xiao Yan and Mu Gu

However, before Lin Feng could react, his spirit suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.

In the blink of an eye, a powerful force burst from his palm, dragging his soul to an extremely unfamiliar space.

Lin Feng's spirit looked around and discovered that the surroundings were filled with purple‑black flames.

And he found himself at the very center of this nearly endless sea of flames.

"Foolish human, you once dared to dream of controlling me; now, obediently become my slave!"

Before Lin Feng could carefully observe his surroundings, a deafening dragon roar suddenly came from within the purple‑black flame space.

Immediately after, fierce winds howled around, and an extraordinarily massive flame dragon slowly rose from the sea of fire, then coiled in the sky, its icy gaze tinged with intense greed as it stared at Lin Feng within the flame sea.

As an alien fire himself, he could sense that within this person's body before him lay an alien fire of tremendous power.

If he could absorb it, his strength would surely surge.

By then, he could easily break the seal and go out to devour the alien fires within those two humans outside.

That way, even after leaving this damned place, when he encounters the three humans who sealed him for so long,

he will have the confidence to fight them and escape unharmed!

As for Lin Feng, his gaze swept over the dragon whose body was wreathed in purple‑black flames, and then he took a deep, excited breath of the scorching air.

He understood that this was the spirit world of the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire, and as for that purple‑black fire dragon,

if he wasn't mistaken, it should be the source flame of the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire.

And to control it, he must defeat it here and thereby seize the dominance of the Dragon Seal.

However, recalling how the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire had previously abandoned attacking him and allowed him to enter, a faint smile involuntarily appeared on its mouth.

If the opponent directly attacked, not letting him approach to touch his hand's Dragon Seal to its forehead's Dragon Seal, then it would really be easy for him.

But since the opponent let him enter here, the subsequent events are no longer up to the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire.

"This kind of soul clash is indeed our forte as alchemists."

Lin Feng, his face full of smiles, raised his palm and glanced at his own hand, which had become somewhat illusory.

The next moment, he casually sat cross‑legged, his dark eyes fixed on the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire within the sea of fire, and said calmly, "How come you specially brought me in here, and now you're afraid?"

"Roar!"

Hearing the former call him timid, the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire could no longer bear it and let out an extremely angry roar.

Under such a roar from it, the purple‑black flames within this space suddenly surged wildly,

and in an instant, they engulfed Lin Feng in a terrifying, sky‑covering torrent.

Yet, facing the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire's frenzied assault, Lin Feng's expression remained unusually calm.

If they were to compare strength head‑on, he would surely be no match for the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire, which is far stronger than Xiao Yixian.

But now the two of them have already activated the Dragon Seal, and in their earlier detailed talk, Zi Yan also told him that.

Once activated, this thing cannot be withdrawn midway unless one's strength is great enough to break free from the caster's bonds.

Under these circumstances, he doesn't worry at all about being controlled by the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire.

Because his late‑stage Spirit Realm soul power, together with the soul cultivation methods and soul techniques he has trained, gives him full confidence!

However, facing the attacks launched by the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire within the flame sea, Lin Feng did not directly strike back.

Instead, with a thought of his mind, a dark‑red flame shield emerged, slowly expanding from within his body and finally forming a round barrier that completely enveloped him.

"Boom!"

Just as the dark‑red shield formed, the sky‑covering purple‑black flame sea swooped down and slammed hard into it, producing a tremendous explosion.

However, those frantic flames striking the shield were ultimately blocked by it.

"Whoa!"

When the flames dissipated, the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire saw that Lin Feng had not been defeated on the spot, and so continued to manipulate the surrounding purple‑black, continuing its assault on that not‑large dark‑red flame shield.

At the same time, perhaps due to the vast disparity in strength between Lin Feng and the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire,

he gradually showed a tendency to retreat under the relentless onslaught of the purple‑black flame sea.

And this exhilarating sight also caused the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire, which desperately longs to devour other alien fires to boost its own power, to flash a hint of excitement in its eyes.

He has been trapped here for decades, constantly thinking about how to escape.

Now that such a rare opportunity has arisen, he naturally does not want to let this excellent chance slip away.

Thus, while the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire continued to increase its attack intensity, Lin Feng's last shred of vigilance also gradually began to fade.

Even he himself, in the fervent attack, unconsciously drifted away from the protection of the flame sea.

It looks like he is preparing to defeat Lin Feng in one fell swoop and absorb the dark‑red alien fire within his body.

After all, Lin Feng's steady retreat has greatly boosted his confidence, firmly believing he will win imminently.

Meanwhile, while Lin Feng and the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire were fiercely battling in the spirit space,

in the void space, far away Xiao Yan and Cao Ying et al., upon seeing Lin Feng's palm emitting the same golden light as the forehead of the purple‑black dragon, then the two collided.

Who could still not know that the earlier revival of the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire was Lin Feng's doing!

However, seeing the two figures of Lin Feng and the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire, one large and one small, hovering like that in midair, everyone fell into an eerie silence and couldn't help but frown.

If it weren't for the faint signs of life still emanating from both the person and the dragon, they would almost certainly have thought they were two statues.

"I don't know if Lin Feng really didn't think, but he suddenly began a soul battle with that beast, unafraid that the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire might withdraw from the soul clash and then attack his true body."

Cao Ying furrowed her brow and spoke softly.

Relying on her Lingjing soul, she could sense that Lin Feng was mobilizing an enormous amount of soul power, and the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire was doing the same.

Thus, she quickly deduced that Lin Feng and the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire are currently engaged in a soul battle.

But why Lin Feng would do this, she could not fathom.

In their view, Lin Feng approaching the immensely powerful Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire to engage in a soul battle is undoubtedly an extremely dangerous act.

After all, they neither know what the Dragon Seal is, nor realize that once the two Dragon Seals touch, they cannot escape the soul battlefield before a victor is decided.

"I think it's probably because of that golden light that Big Brother Lin Feng used earlier. Perhaps that thing could also restrain the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire."

At this moment, Dan Chen, standing nearby, worriedly gazed at Lin Feng in the distance and said softly.

Hearing that, Cao Ying was instantly startled; she suddenly thought of something.

When Lin Feng's palm, glowing with golden light, touched the golden light on the forehead of the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire, the two almost instantly entered a soul battle.

Thinking of this, she furrowed her brow again and muttered: "According to family intelligence, this guy clearly rose from the bottom, so how does he have so many tricks, and sometimes he's mysteriously secretive—really makes one want to dig out all his secrets."

Immediately afterward, she suddenly recalled the marriage alliance her father had mentioned, and her charming pretty face instantly turned crimson.

Even for such a matter, even she, this talented young lady, felt extremely shy.

As for Xiao Yan and Old Man Mu Gu, upon seeing Lin Feng and the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire's current state, their hearts sank sharply and their brows furrowed tightly.

After all, they are not fools; earlier they thought victory was in their grasp, simply because they didn't know Lin Feng also possessed such strange methods.

Now seeing that Lin Feng came prepared, and accompanied by that flash of golden light just now, he actually dragged the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire into the soul battlefield.

These signs indicate that Lin Feng might have already plotted a plan to capture this strange fire even before entering the Star Field.

Therefore, they can't help but panic!

"Damn it, this white-clothed woman is really in the way!"

However, when Xiao Yan and Old Man Mu Gu saw Xiao Yixian warily watching them from the side, they couldn't help but grit their teeth and curse inwardly.

If it weren't for this woman guarding him, they could suddenly rush forward and assassinate Lin Feng, whose soul is currently battling the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire.

But now, Lin Feng's body is protected by that extraordinarily powerful white-clothed woman; with just their meager strength.

As long as this woman doesn't slack off, they cannot succeed in a sneak attack.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

That Lin Feng is his mortal enemy; if the opponent obtains the strange fire, it would be extremely detrimental to him.

Moreover, he is now desperately in need of greater strength; if the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire is taken away,

then even if he paid tenfold or more, he might not be able to retrieve it again.

Meanwhile, Old Man Mu Gu was fingering the space ring on his finger, pondering whether now was a good time to summon the Nine Heavens Venerable.

However, after considering the terrifying strength of that white-clothed woman nearby, he immediately made up his mind and prepared to summon reinforcements.

After all, he still wants to obtain Xiao Yan's Flame Technique and the strange fire, and then use them to cultivate to a higher realm.

Therefore, fighting a high-rank Battle Venerable expert is so dangerous that Old Man Mu Gu naturally would have someone else do it.

And that Nine Heavens Venerable Demonic Rain is undoubtedly an extremely suitable choice!

After making up his mind, Old Man Mu Gu lightly clenched his palm, and a brilliant silver space jade slip suddenly appeared in his hand.

Immediately afterward, he slightly exerted force with his hand and crushed it.

Accompanying the shattering of the space jade slip, a tremendous surge of space power burst forth from within it.

Before the surrounding people could react, the space beside Old Man Mu Gu was twisted by that surge of space power into a crack.
