Chapter 812: Casually Settle a Debt

Perhaps Xuan Huang Flame could guide me to find a Domain Beyond Spirit Flame and evolve the Burning Scripture!

Xiao Yan's Burning Scripture has already evolved into a Supreme Divine Technique; to continue evolving, he needs a Supreme Realm Spirit Flame—such flames are exceedingly rare across the Great Thousand World, and only rumor says the Fire Spirit Clan possesses one ancestral Divine Fire reaching this level.

Perhaps Xiao Yan really will have to go to the Domain Beyond to seek a Spirit Flame!

At this moment, Xiao Yan turned his head to gaze at the quietly rising Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame, and he couldn't help but wonder: could the "Spirit" in Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame refer to Spiritual Energy from the Great Thousand World, tied to the Shen Shou Continent?

After all, Xuan Huang Flame ranks last, and Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame ranks second-to-last! Moreover, Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame can enhance beast bloodlines!

Whether in the Great Thousand World or the Dou Qi Continent, the most crucial thing for beasts is bloodline. But now, Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame has lost the ability to evolve bloodlines—after reaching Nine Rank, it can no longer enhance bloodlines; this exceeds its power.

Xiao Yan now suspects that Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame, like Xuan Huang Flame, isn't weak—it simply hasn't revealed its true power, unable to manifest fully on the Dou Qi Continent!

Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame ranks twenty-second, only one level higher than Xuan Huang Flame, yet its effect on beasts is even more vital than Void Swallowing Flame.

This is the Spirit Flame to revive the beast race!

Xiao Yan now thought more and more it made sense: among all Spirit Flames, only Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame is called "Spirit Flame." At first, Xiao Yan thought "Spirit Flame" meant it was highly sentient, formed from the souls of ten thousand beasts!

"I was originally worried that if the Heavenly Evil God revived, he might harm the Dou Qi Continent or violate the Contract. Hehehe, his Saint Clan once lost and fled to the Great Thousand World—perhaps the Domain Beyond has ways to restrain him." Xiao Yan's eyes flickered with the gaze of the Flame Sovereign.

When Xiao Yan joined the Soul Sect, he always had a backup plan—he never blindly trusted Hun Tian Di. The same holds now: though the Domain Beyond Demons can offer him great benefits, he won't trust them unconditionally.

Mutual exploitation is fine; being exploited is not.

Xiao Yan's current goal is to protect the Dou Qi Continent from invasion by Domain Beyond Demons—joining the Domain Beyond Demons is indeed the most effective way to prevent such invasion.

We're on the same side—don't open fire!

At this moment, Xiao Yan even worried that the Supreme Realm factions of the Great Thousand World might discover the Dou Qi Continent and seek to invade it, seizing its resources and the World Core.

After all, to the Great Thousand World, a Lower Plane is like an undeveloped Secret Realm—it's hard to guarantee anything.

Xiao Yan needs immense power to protect the Dou Qi Continent!

"I should ask Cai Lin about Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame—she used it to enhance her bloodline and likely knows more." Xiao Yan had no better guesses; with a wave of his hand, he reclaimed all Spirit Flames into his Supreme Sea.

Xiao Yan scanned the surroundings again—this time, no anomalies appeared—and he finally exhaled in relief.

The Heavenly Evil God's Saint Pupil Chuan Cheng Kong Jian had shaken him deeply; though it didn't raise his Spiritual Energy Cultivation Realm, his Soul Force reached Great Perfection Earth Supreme—breaking through to the Heavenly Supreme Realm would likely require collecting a second Spiritual Pupil.

With a hum, Space twisted, and Xiao Yan stepped out of the Chuan Cheng Kong Jian in one stride.

"Xiao Yan, are you alright?" Xiao Yixian, who had already completed her Supreme Form transformation, approached with concern.

Xiao Yan shook his head with a smile and revealed everything—about the Heavenly Evil God and the inheritance vision—without hiding anything.

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Yixian was stunned, her small mouth slightly open, speechless for a moment.

This was too shocking—the Number One Holy Son of the Domain Beyond Demons!

And the Heavenly Evil God had faked his sealing! And such a powerful Domain Beyond Demon clan was defeated and fled to the Great Thousand World!

"Having another path now is good. Though the Dou Qi Continent is a Lower Plane, the ancient Dou Emperors left no trace of the Great Thousand World—instead, they left behind Source Qi as a path to break through to Dou Emperor. This may mean the ancient Dou Emperors didn't believe siding with the Great Thousand World was beneficial." Xiao Yan voiced his thoughts.

Xiao Yixian nodded in agreement: when they ascended to the Great Thousand World, they'd assumed they'd arrive in a Source Qi world, since the Dou Qi Continent had no concept of Spiritual Energy—so upon arrival, they were utterly confused by the Spiritual Energy conversion.

Xiao Potian's guidance led Xiao Yan to the Cycle Six Leaf Grass and his own Inheritance Site.

In any case, more choices are good—if the Great Thousand World truly is an irredeemable fool, Xiao Yan won't die with it.

He can't even beat the Heavenly Evil God—let alone the weakest Demon Emperor. To provoke the Domain Beyond Demons? He'd have to be insane!

Of course, if the Firmament Rankings were willing to choose him as its master, he'd stand firmly with the Great Thousand World.

"Let's go. Whether we side with the Domain Beyond Demons or the Great Thousand World, this isn't our own affair—it concerns the fate of the Dou Qi Continent. First, ask Xun Er and Cai Lin for their opinions," said Xiao Yan.

"Mm, we can still make it to the Shang Zhi Da Lu in time," Xiao Yixian nodded lightly, then subtly activated her Spiritual Energy.

Undoubtedly, after refining the Other Shore Flower, Xiao Yixian had fully transformed her Spiritual Energy—her Eternal Calamity Poison Body became a Supreme Form, breaking through to Lower Earth Supreme, equivalent to breaking through to Dou Emperor!

Two Earth Supreme cultivators crossing the heavens moved at incredible speed—like two shooting stars, slicing through the cosmic void toward the Shang Zhi Da Lu.

Yet, as Xiao Yan and Xiao Yixian flew over countless continents, upon reaching one particular continent, Xiao Yan's Soul Force Perception suddenly trembled—the land below carried a familiar aura.

Stopping, Xiao Yixian also sensed something, her face twisting into a strange expression.

Who would've thought—truly, fate brings enemies together!

"I'd almost given up, but who knew—on the way to the Shang Zhi Da Lu, we'd actually run into them. Is this luck?" Xiao Yan's gaze blazed as he stared down at the continent below.

This continent was twice the size of the Ning Tian Continent; though far from a super-continent, it was significantly stronger than Ning Tian Continent.

This continent's name is Tian Sheng Continent—yes, the one ruled by the Heavenly Saint Sect.

"Hehehe, looks like I can conveniently collect a debt." Xiao Yan silently pulled out his Soul Robe—he hadn't forgotten: someone had gambled a Spirit Refining contest with him, lost, yet refused to hand over the Pill Refining Inheritance.

Xiao Yixian sighed helplessly—married to the Flame Sovereign, she had no choice but to don the Soul Robe too.

After starting original content, I'm truly stuck—I need to create new settings. I need a day off to sort things out.
