With a flicker, the old man’s figure flashed and instantly slipped into the energy barrier, landing firmly on the edge of the deep pit.
Imdiately, an extrely scorching heat wave rushed toward him, stirring his robes and long beard.
Even with the old man’s formidable strength, he did not dare to ignore such high temperatures.
With a sweep of his sleeve, a thick surge of Dou Qi wrapped around his body, completely isolating the intense heat from the outside.
Only after completing these defenses did the old man finally lower his gaze to the depths below. A faint fluorescence gradually erged over his pupils.
Under this faint glow, the previously bottomless abyss finally began to reveal its true form.
It was an ocean of magma.
However, the magma here was far darker than ordinary lava—like countless buckets of fresh blood had been poured into it. The entire sea of lava radiated a sinister and ominous aura.
Its temperature was also far higher than that of typical magma.
If the underground magma world of the Tagore Desert—where the Green Lotus Core Fla had once been born—was already hot enough to make even an average Dou Ling expert unable to last long...
Then this place was even more terrifying. Even an average Dou Wang might not be able to hold out for long before being forced to retreat.
The old man narrowed his eyes as he gazed at a distant corner of the magma world that stretched unknown depths into the earth. The solemn expression on his face grew even heavier.
As the Grand Elder of the Inner Academy—the current highest-ranking elder of Jia Nan Academy—he knew exactly what lay beneath.
This old man was none other than the Inner Academy’s Grand Elder: Su Qian.
A mid-level Dou Zong expert.
Today, he had sensed sothing unusual.
The reason, naturally, was the source of his long-standing headache: the Fallen Heart Fla, which had beco increasingly active and agitated lately.
Like a volcano that had been simring for years, it had finally reached its critical point and could erupt at any mont.
Su Qian’s heart grew heavy.
Even though he knew very well that the true body of the Fallen Heart Fla lay hidden within that endless sea of lava...
Even with his strength, in such an extrely hostile environnt, he dared not enter recklessly.
After all, what lay beneath was a cunning and vicious Heavenly Fla—brimming with hatred toward Jia Nan Academy, extrely intelligent, and violent in temperant.
That place... was its domain.
Even two of himself entering together might not co back out in one piece.
...
Fluorescence flickered in Su Qian’s eyes as he used his enhanced vision to barely make out a corner of the magma world below.
The overwhelming dark-red hue filled his vision. Even soone of his strength felt a vague, inexplicable irritation rising in his heart the longer he stared at it.
He knew—this was the Fallen Heart Fla at work. This fla, born from human emotion, was the most insidious and difficult to guard against.
"Why has it gone quiet again? What is that damned thing up to now?" Su Qian muttered under his breath.
The magma world below remained as calm as ever, not the slightest ripple of disturbance.
But just earlier, Su Qian had clearly sensed an imnsely powerful flow of energy.
And in this magma world—where no other life existed—who else but the Fallen Heart Fla could possess such an astonishing energy that even he found shocking?
Su Qian furrowed his brows tightly. He knew it was no illusion earlier; the Fallen Heart Fla must have been up to sothing.
Yet now, everything had gone eerily silent.
Just then—
Bang!
Suddenly—
A faint sound echoed softly from within the magma world, traveling who knew how far through the deep tunnel before finally reaching Su Qian’s ears.
The faint sound resembled the beat of a heart—so much so that even Su Qian’s own heartbeat involuntarily synced with it.
His pupils shrank to the size of pinholes in an instant.
This ti, he was absolutely certain—it was the Fallen Heart Fla, no doubt about it.
It was definitely up to sothing deep below.
And yet, even knowing this, Su Qian still didn’t dare enter.
A look of deep conflict twisted across his face.
After all, if anything were to happen to him and the Fallen Heart Fla were to suddenly erupt, then the Inner Academy would undoubtedly face a catastrophic disaster.
Boom!Just as Su Qian was hesitating and brooding, another low, muffled sound suddenly echoed through the air.
Moreover, this sound was even clearer and more resounding than the one before—like sothing was on the verge of breaking out of its cocoon.
Inside his sleeve, Su Qian’s fist slowly clenched. His expression fluctuated uncertainly, and under the reflection of the dark red light, he appeared increasingly grim.
Boom!Another thudding sound rang out, similar to a heartbeat.
This ti, it was even stronger than the last.
Boom!Not long after, yet another one followed.
And another.
Boom! Boom! Boom!As ti passed, those eerie sounds grew more rapid and thunderous—like a pulse beating with increasing urgency.
It was as if so colossal and mysterious creature beneath the sea of magma was gradually waking from a deep slumber.
In the end, Su Qian was horrified to realize that the rhythm of that sound had completely synchronized with the beating of his own heart!
"What the hell is that beast doing?" Su Qian muttered under his breath in disbelief.
Suddenly, his expression changed drastically, his gaze snapping toward the underground magma world.
There, an imnsely violent and vast surge of energy was slowly rising from the depths of the magma.
And as this terrifying energy surged upward, the once-calm magma world instantly erupted into chaos.
A fierce wind, seemingly from nowhere, howled across the surface of the magma, stirring it up into massive waves of dark red lava, towering tens of ters high.
The rolling magma slamd down violently, and in that instant, a deafening roar erupted—like a tsunami crashing down.
"This energy!"
Feeling the sudden surge of a familiar energy aura, Su Qian’s face turned deathly pale, looking extrely grim.
After dealing with it for so many years, he instantly recognized the familiar presence contained within that energy—it belonged to the Fallen Heart Fla!
"What did that damn thing do?! How did its power suddenly beco several tis stronger than before?!" Su Qian cried out in shock.
Logically speaking, this should have been impossible.
The autonomous growth of a Heavenly Fla required the passage of countless years. There was no way its strength could skyrocket so drastically in such a short period.
It made no sense.
"Damn it, if its energy has grown this strong, then what about the seals?!" A sudden thought flashed through Su Qian’s mind, causing a chill to shoot through his entire body.
Just as he turned around, intending to summon reinforcents to reinforce the seals—
BOOM!A thunderous explosion burst forth from the magma world below, shaking the heavens and earth.
Su Qian glanced downward and imdiately gasped, a cold sweat spreading from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
Within the endless sea of magma, the dark red lava suddenly began to boil violently, with an incredibly ferocious energy surging within.
The lava churned like boiling water, as if sothing was about to break through the surface.
But after a brief mont, the magma that had been raging suddenly cald down again.
However, Su Qian’s expression only grew more tense rather than relaxing.
He could clearly feel that the rampaging energy had not disappeared. On the contrary, it was getting closer and closer to the magma’s surface.
Finally—
BOOM!With a deafening explosion, the once-calm surface of the magma was abruptly torn apart by a massive wave.
As molten lava shot into the air, a gigantic fire python—its body nearly transparent, its head over ten ters wide, and its entire form wreathed in invisible flas—burst forth from the magma. It carried a tidal wave of imnse energy, shaking the entire space as it erged into Su Qian’s intensely focused gaze.
"Fallen Heart Fla!"Su Qian gritted his teeth, practically spitting out those four words from the depths of his throat.
Screee!The invisible fire python burst free from the magma, its colossal body slithering like an ancient beast that had been imprisoned for millennia and had finally broken free.
It lifted its enormous head high and opened its mouth. In that instant, a piercing, invisible sonic wave—so sharp it could make a Dou Ling expert explode on the spot—swept out in all directions.
