"But..."
Xiao Yan suddenly frowned slightly, a puzzled look flashing across his face as he asked softly in his heart, "Master, ordinary alchemists can usually only control one type of fla, let alone a Heavenly Fla.
Since Han Feng already possesses the Sea Heart Fla — and it’s ranked even higher than the Fallen Heart Fla — why would he still risk offending Jia Nan Academy just to seize another one?"
As soon as Xiao Yan’s voice fell, Yao Lao went silent.
After a long pause, a hoarse and low voice finally replied,"Because... he also cultivates the Fla Mantra."
Xiao Yan’s body stiffened instantly, shock flooding his face as mixed emotions surged in his heart.
"But the Fla Mantra he practices... is only a fragnted version," Yao Lao added, finally allowing Xiao Yan to breathe a little easier.
"Fragnted? What do you an by that?" Xiao Yan pressed further.
The Fla Mantra was his greatest reliance — his core secret. It was sacred to him.
"Back then, he took advantage of
when I let my guard down and stole the Fla Mantra. But I discovered it in ti, so he only managed to obtain a small portion of the technique’s cultivation path before he had to flee."
As he recalled the events of the past, Yao Lao’s voice beca rougher, "Still, I’ve said before — while his intentions are twisted, his talent is not lacking.
After so many years of exploration, I suspect he’s pieced together enough of it to understand its essence. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so eager to obtain a second Heavenly Fla."
Xiao Yan gave a slight nod, his eyes locking tightly on the figure in the sky.
To think that Han Feng had also cultivated the Fla Mantra — even if it was only a partial copy.
Yet even that was enough to make Xiao Yan’s killing intent surge wildly.
It was a visceral, instinctive response. One that stirred from the depths of his soul.
Han Feng — must not be allowed to live!
...
Outside the spatial barrier—
The mont Xiao Yan crushed the jade pendant, Wei Yang sensed it imdiately.
That Yao Lao had sent the signal so quickly actually caught him a little off guard.
Truthfully, now wasn’t the best ti for Wei Yang to make a move. He wasn’t keen on drawing too much attention just yet.
The ideal situation would be for Jia Nan Academy and the Black-Corner Region forces to fight each other to exhaustion — and only then would Wei Yang step in. That would be the perfect mont.
However, once Han Feng ca to mind, Wei Yang instantly understood.
So... Yao Lao’s intention was to have him move early and help clean house?
After thinking it over, Wei Yang decided: he’d go in first and take a look.
"Let’s go," he said softly.
With a flicker, he descended to the ground.
Behind him, Xian’er, Qing Lin, and Ah Da followed closely.
They swiftly passed through the dense, ancient forest and soon arrived in front of the spatial barrier.
Wei Yang had no intention of drawing attention by entering from the sky. Instead, he chose a discreet entry point close to the ground.
He turned and looked at Ah Da.
Ah Da nodded and stepped forward. From within his sleeve, a semi-transparent hand erged and gently touched the distorted spatial barrier.
Buzz~
The mont Ah Da’s hand made contact with the barrier, the surrounding space rippled like the surface of water, light waves spreading outward in concentric rings.
Although Ah Da had lost his physical body — and even his soul wasn’t at its peak, only at the peak Dou Huang level — he had once been a peak Nine-Star Dou Zun. His mastery over space was still formidable.
While he could no longer open a full-blown dinsional rift with brute force like a full Dou Zun, performing sothing like this — silently opening a small gap in a large-scale spatial barrier — was still well within his abilities.
Very soon, as the barrier shimred and twisted slightly, a small passage just wide enough for one person silently opened before them.
Ah Da retracted his hand. His aura remained stable, clearly showing that this task was nothing more than a minor effort for him.
He bowed respectfully and said, "Master, the barrier will begin repairing itself automatically. This opening will only last about five minutes. Of course, if I stay here and suppress the recovery, it can remain open indefinitely."
Wei Yang thought for a mont, then said, "You and Qing Lin stay here. No need to go inside. I’ll take Xian’er and aim for a quick, clean finish. We’ll leave as soon as it’s done."
"Yes, Master," Ah Da bowed again.
Qing Lin furrowed her brows slightly, clearly a bit reluctant, but nodded obediently.
She was only at peak Dou Wang level — her strength wouldn’t make much of a difference inside anyway. Wei Yang didn’t need her combat power.
Wei Yang smiled, reached out, and gently rubbed her head in reassurance.
With a flip of his hand, Wei Yang took out a loose-fitting black robe and draped it over himself, then pulled the hood over his head to conceal his face.
On the other side, Xian’er did the sa.
The two then stepped through the small opening in the spatial barrier.
...
Behind the barrier was a wooded area within the Inner Academy.
As soon as Wei Yang and the others entered through the rift, the once-muffled sounds of battle beca vividly clear.
Previously, it was like they had been standing outside a well-soundproofed room — only able to faintly sense so of the chaos within. But now, they had truly entered the chamber of war.
The intense waves of battle that rushed toward them made Wei Yang instinctively look up.
Through the gaps in the leafy canopy, he saw that high above in the sky, multicolored Dou Qi energies were clashing violently and exploding like blossoming fireworks.
A massive lee had erupted.
In terms of numbers alone, Jia Nan Academy’s side clearly had the advantage.
However, most of the Academy’s combatants were only at the Dou Wang level, with a few Dou Huang experts — aside from Hu Gan, there were no other heavyweights.
In contrast, Han Feng’s side was comprised of the leaders of various Black-Corner Region factions — nearly all of whom were Dou Huang-level — plus many subordinates at the Dou Wang level.
Ironically, despite being outnumbered, Han Feng’s side held the upper hand in strength.
As for the strongest of the Academy — Su Qian — he was currently being locked down by two powerful figures, one dressed in gold, the other in silver.
The two figures — one in a golden robe, one in silver — were eerily similar in appearance upon closer inspection.
They both had white hair and white beards, and their facial features looked like they were cast from the sa mold.
If not for their differing robe colors, most people would have had a hard ti telling them apart at a glance.
Wei Yang’s gaze paused briefly on these two in the air. His brows raised as he muttered,"Elder Gold and Elder Silver?"
Wei Yang had heard of these two before.
The so-called Elder Gold and Elder Silver were well-known top-tier experts listed near the top of the Black Ranking in the Black-Corner Region.
They were twin brothers, their minds perfectly in sync. Moreover, the techniques and Dou Techniques they cultivated were exactly the sa.
Individually, they were just peak Dou Huang, not particularly fearso. But together, their combined strength beca mutually reinforcing — they could even pose a serious threat to a Dou Zong expert.
Because of this, their nas held significant weight across the entire Black-Corner Region.
At this mont, Su Qian, having previously exhausted himself to seal the Fallen Heart Fla, was now heavily weakened. As a result, he was being entirely tied down by the Gold and Silver brothers, unable to break free.
Wei Yang’s gaze then turned toward another part of the sky — above the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Towerr.
There, Vice Dean Hu Gan was being pressed hard by Han Feng, barely able to hold on.
Wei Yang’s vision instantly locked onto the figure wreathed in deep blue flas. His eyes narrowed sharply.
Han Feng!
Sea Heart Fla!
"So that’s the Sea Heart Fla? What a beautiful fire," Xian’er murmured in admiration as her eyes fixed on Han Feng.
"It is indeed beautiful," Wei Yang nodded.
Heavenly Flas were born of nature, forged and refined over countless years. Each one possessed a unique and captivating beauty.
Of course, what counted as "beauty" varied from person to person — everyone saw it differently.
But a Heavenly Fla like the Sea Heart Fla, with its deep-blue, almost liquid-like form, would be considered beautiful by anyone’s standards.
"Let’s go. We’ll sneak in, get close, and look for a chance to take Han Feng down quickly and retreat," Wei Yang said, taking the lead.
He suppressed his aura, blended into the forest shadows, and swiftly moved toward Han Feng’s direction.
Behind him, Xian’er followed closely without a word.
Very soon, they arrived at the edge of the forest.
From here, the plaza surrounding the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Towerr was only a hundred ters away — a negligible distance for beings like Wei Yang and Xian’er.
This was the heart of the battlefield.
Above, brilliant streaks of Dou Qi energy crisscrossed like a web, explosive ripples bursting one after another — dazzling and fierce, like blooming fireworks raining from the sky.
On the plaza below, patches of invisible flas still burned fiercely across the ground, refusing to extinguish.
Rivers of scorching magma flowed in between.
