Chapter 212: Returning the Heavenly Flame

"We're finally out". Said Xiao Ming, wiping a thin layer of sweat from his forehead and laughing. Although he did not encounter any special circumstances when he entered the magma, the long time spent in the magma consumed much of his energy.

"Finally, it's time to see the outside world beyond the magma again, how nostalgic..."

Venerable Tian Huo, who had also emerged from the depths of the endless magma, was also a bit excited. He floated out of his ring for a few laps before saying with great enthusiasm.

"Xiao Ming, your travel was exceptionally smooth. Back when I went deep into the magma depths, I encountered quite a few dangerous situations."

"Oh?" Although he knew what the situation was, Xiao Ming still pretended to have a puzzled look on his face.

"There is a kind of Lizard Race in the depths of magma, that Lizard Race is extremely strange, not only do they have many powerful individuals, but their numbers are almost endless. The fact that I died down there even being a Dou Venerate back then, was because I ran into Dou Venerate level Lizard-People". Yao Tian Huo slowly said.

"Other than an inexhaustible group of Lizard-People that one can never seem to kill; I suspect that there are even more terrifying existences deep within the Magma World."

Looking at Yao Tian Huo's gloomy face, Xiao Ming couldn't help but inwardly shake his head. The deepest part of the magma was indeed very dangerous, it was where the Tou She Ancient God Mansion was located and also where Zhu Kun, Zi Yan's unfortunate father, was.

It could be said that Zhu Kun was unlucky, he had originally gone with his daughter in search of the opportunity to become Dou God, but he did not expect that the Tou She Ancient God would force him to stay there as a guardian.

Zi Yan was even more unlucky, the worthy heiress and future Dragon Empress of the Ancient Void Dragon Tribe was forced to wander outside and "scavenge for food", she probably hadn't even developed her spiritual wisdom at that time.Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com

Thousands of years have passed, and it is only now that she is breaking through to Dou Emperor.

"The Lizard Race can't leave the magma, their bodies would turn to ash as soon as they leave it, besides, they only live in the depths of the magma, so as long as we don't re-enter the magma world, they won't be able to do anything to us."

Xiao Ming nodded and smiled, his palm extended towards the hillside, causing a cold light to shoot out from it, turning into a precious sword and falling into his hand.

"I've been here for many days now, it's time to go."

"Xiao Ming, my soul is extremely weak at the moment and is not able to sustain its presence for long, so I will need you to restore it. Remember, my soul will not hold out for long in this state, so you must hurry," Venerable Tian Huo said as he turned his gaze to Xiao Ming.

However, this did not pose much of a problem for him, in fact, it was a good thing.

Still, he had been here for almost a year and these Elders had been here too, so it must have been difficult for them, so Xiao Ming thanked them both.

Seeing this, the two Elders told him that there was no need to be polite, Xiao Ming had made pills for them before, moreover, they were not only waiting idly, but they had also been cultivating.

After a bit more conversation, Xiao Ming asked about the location of First Elder Su Qian.

"First Elder? There have been many matters to attend to at the Academy these days, he should be in his study taking care of them."

Knowing where First Elder was located, Xiao Ming bid them farewell.

Soon, he found First Elder Su Qian in the study.

"Xiao Ming, did you end your seclusion so quickly?" In the brightly lit study, when Su Qian saw Xiao Ming, he immediately stopped what he was doing and an expression of joy appeared on his face.

His gaze scanned Xiao Ming's body and sensing his aura was like the deep sea, he couldn't help but smile. "It seems that this time the breakthrough progressed very well, doesn't it?"

"That was also thanks to the Academy's Fallen Heart Flame, otherwise, I wouldn't know how long it would have taken me to break through." Sitting in front of Su Qian, Xiao Ming said with a smile.

Then, with a wave of his hand, the Flame Gathering Cauldron appeared in his hand.

"First Elder, this is the Fallen Heart Flame exchanged."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Su Qian gently took the Flame Gathering Cauldron and examined it. A moment later, when he felt the Heart Flame that suddenly appeared inside his body, a smile appeared on his face. With his current strength, it was impossible for an ordinary Heart Flame to mobilize inside his body, only a true Heavenly Flame could do it. It was clear that what Xiao Ming was giving now was an Infant Heavenly Flame.

"You took a wild and untamed mature Heavenly Flame, and returned an Infant Heavenly Flame to the Inner Academy, now, it could be considered a win-win. However, did you suffer any injuries while extracting the Heavenly Flame Source from your body?"

"This..." Xiao Ming scratched his head and decided to be transparent, "This Heavenly Flame is actually a new Heavenly Flame that I discovered in the depths of the magma."
