The True Use of the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations!
Just as Xiao Yan stepped into the Gate of Life and Death, an energy hand reached out from behind to grab him.
Xiao Yan merely sneered. His Soul perception had long detected Yun Shan's intention to seize him, and he had been paying close attention to Yun Shan's every move.
As for the Soul Token, Xiao Yan didn't believe that a mere token could suppress two Protectors.
Yun Shan's presence was solely for the purpose of monitoring Xiao Yan, waiting for him to emerge from the Gate of Life and Death.
However, it was likely that neither Wū Protector nor Yun Shan had anticipated that Xiao Yan would create such an unexpected turn of events! "Damn it!" Yun Shan gritted his teeth. He had sensed something amiss the previous night, so he had intended to keep a close watch on Xiao Yan today to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.
After all, Xiao Yan's visit to the Yunlan Sect was too strange, making Yun Shan feel that Xiao Yan was concealing his true purpose.
As soon as Xiao Yan entered the Gate of Life and Death, the faint light of the gate vanished instantly, the shimmering light membrane disappeared, and the earth-shattering tremors subsided.
Xiao Yan was thus transported into the space of the Gate of Life and Death, as if nothing had happened at all! However, the cracks visible everywhere proved that something had indeed occurred.
"Teacher, what just happened?" Yun Yun's beautiful eyes looked around in surprise, then turned to Yun Shan. She didn't understand why Yun Shan wanted to capture Xiao Yan.
Nalan Yanran also approached Yun Yun from the foot of the mountain. When she entered the Gate of Life and Death some time ago, there hadn't been such a commotion. Even obtaining Yun Potian's inheritance hadn't caused such bizarre events!
Suddenly, from the forest on the other side, a massive surge of black mist poured out, rapidly condensing in the sky to form a deep, dark fog cluster about ten feet wide.
Nalan Yanran and Yun Yun watched the emerging black mist, their expressions turning grave in unison. They didn't know what was happening now! Everything today had exceeded their expectations.
"Teacher, what is this...?" Nalan Yanran tilted her head towards Yun Yun, asking softly.
Yun Yun drew her Green Edge Sword, protecting Nalan Yanran behind her, her eyes fixed on the black mist, the wind around her becoming more violent.
"What is that black mist?!" As the black mist appeared in the sky, the Yunlan Sect disciples, still in shock, became agitated, their eyes filled with surprise and doubt.
They had no idea when such a strange presence had been hidden within the sect.
Only some of the elders, attendants, and Da Dou Shi-level disciples seemed to have an inkling of what was happening.
With a whoosh, the black mist instantly arrived in front of the Gate of Life and Death.
"Wū Protector," Yun Shan said, bowing his head.
Seeing her Teacher, Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran were astonished that Yun Shan, a Dou Zong, was bowing in respect! They couldn't believe it! Yun Shan was a Dou Zong, so what kind of person could make a Dou Zong bow his head!
"Could he be the Soul Palace member that Xiao Yan mentioned?" Yun Yun thought of Xiao Yan's words before he left, and her heart sank.
Wū Protector's aged and sinister voice came from the black mist: "Yun Shan, what exactly is going on here!"
Yun Shan's forehead immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He could hear theSurging (surging) murderous intent in Protector Wū's voice. If not handled properly, the entire Yunlan Sect could be doomed!
"That Xiao Yan probably discovered the secret hidden within the Gate of Life and Death long ago. He deliberately used the duel with Nalan Yanran as an excuse to cause a disturbance in the Yunlan Sect, and then entered the Gate of Life and Death smoothly!" Yun Shan was obviously pushing all the blame onto Xiao Yan, but he was actually right about quite a few things.
As soon as Yun Shan finished speaking, Wū Protector's eyes turned ruthless, and the black mist around him surged wildly as he said in a deep voice: "This Protector will use the Ninefold Forest Hundred Devouring Soul Secret Method to forcibly break through the Gate of Life and Death."
"Yun Shan, go and capture a large number of people for me to absorb."
Hearing Wū Protector's words, Yun Shan's expression became extremely unsightly.
The Ninefold Forest Hundred Devouring Soul Secret Method was an extremely evil secret method of the Soul Palace. Although this secret method was an Earth Rank secret method, using this secret method required absorbing the souls and vitality of living beings. The more one absorbed, the stronger the power became, even theoretically without limit.
It was a very evil secret method.
Although Yun Shan had joined the Soul Palace, it was more for the sake of breaking through to Dou Zong. He still cherished his reputation very much. Asking him to do such a thing was clearly beyond his bottom line.
Seeing Yun Shan hesitate, Wū Protector sneered: "Jie jie jie, Yun Shan, don't think that you can still have a choice after obtaining the power of the Soul Palace. To obtain power, you must pay the price. There is no turning back."
"Or do you think it would be better for me to absorb the disciples of the Yunlan Sect?"
Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran, upon hearing this, both took out their weapons from their Storage Rings.
"Don't even think about harming the disciples of the Yunlan Sect!" Yun Yun's Dou Huang aura erupted.
"Yun Yun, stop!" Yun Shan immediately stopped Yun Yun. With Wū Protector's strength, even with Yun Shan, they would only be courting death.
"Teacher!"
"You and Yanran go back and appease the disciples. Leave the rest to me," Yun Shan said in a deep voice.
Wū Protector said sinisterly: "Jie jie jie, smart. Take those elders with you too. The more people, the faster it will be."
Yun Shan's eyelids twitched, and he forced himself to respond: "Yes."
Yun Shan forcibly took Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran and flew towards the Yunlan Sect's main hall, leaving only Wū Protector behind at the Gate of Life and Death, waiting for Xiao Yan to emerge.
"I'll see how you escape my Five Finger Mountain!"
Meanwhile, Xiao Yan, having entered the Gate of Life and Death, felt as if he had stepped into another dimension. As soon as he entered, he realized that the inside of the Gate of Life and Death resembled a room.
Besides the entrance, there were only eight different doors in front of him. Nalan Yanran had challenged her way from the first door to the fifth, ultimately obtaining Yun Potian's inheritance.
"So that's how it is, the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations."
It would be a lie if Xiao Yan claimed to be completely ignorant of what the Gate of Life and Death concealed.
Xiao Yan didn't follow Yun Yun's instructions to circulate the Cultivation Method; instead, he activated the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations!
Xiao Yan first felt that heart pulsation at the Alchemist Guild when he discovered the black jade that contained the secret method of the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations.
The second time was at the foot of Yunlan Mountain, when he almost used the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations.
If Xiao Yan couldn't detect the problem, he might as well bash his head against a wall and die.
However, Xiao Yan didn't expect that the Gate of Life and Death would cause such a big reaction, and a voice even entered his mind.
"The black jade only recorded the first transformation of the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations, and the Gate of Life and Death happens to possess a Strange Flame. This cannot be a coincidence."
"The only explanation is that someone deliberately left behind the black jade recording the cultivation secret method of the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations and left the Strange Flame here."
Xiao Yan didn't believe in such coincidences in this world.
Too many coincidences piled together meant there had to be a connection.
Looking at the eight closed doors in front of him, Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed, and he shouted, "Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations!"
*BOOM!* The fused Strange Flame circulated along the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations route within his body. The next second, the location where Xiao Yan stood was like a prairie fire, instantly igniting the entire space.
The flames swept over, and all eight doors were burned down. These eight doors were fake, merely traps to confuse those who entered without cultivating the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations.
After the flames burned through the entire space, a scene appeared before Xiao Yan's eyes.
Xiao Yan now felt as if he were in a movie world, standing inside a magnificent hall surrounded by people.
"Is this a memory scene?" Xiao Yan was like watching a 3D movie, unable to touch these figures.
"Clan Leader, the Soul Clan is going too far. In the past two days, several more disciples of the Xiao Clan have been ambushed," said a middle-aged man sitting in the lower seat, his face filled with anger.
Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Soul Clan? Xiao Clan?!"
