"Alright then."

Hearing Lin Feng's words, Su Qian nodded slightly and didn't say more.

He then handed the Flame Gathering Pot over to Lin Feng, saying, "Pavilion Master Lin, you just need to pour your Fallen Heart Flame into this and fill it to the brim."

"Got it."

Lin Feng gave a slight nod and took the oddly shaped pot, placing his palm over its opening.

With a shift of his thoughts, the Fallen Heart Flame inside him surged out wildly, continuously pouring into the strange pot.

Under Lin Feng's full output as a Six-Star Dou Huang, it took nearly an hour to fill the pot completely.

Seeing it finally full, the now pale-faced Lin Feng quickly stopped the output, then tossed the pot back to Su Qian.

At the same time, he took out a Dou Qi recovery pill from his storage ring and swallowed it.

Su Qian received the pot with delight, then glanced toward the deep pit at the center of the chamber—the entrance to the magma world.

Turning back to the other Elders, he commanded, "Let's begin."

"Yes, Grand Elder!"

The four Inner Academy Elders responded in unison and immediately sat cross-legged around the pit, eyes slowly closing.

Once they were prepared, Su Qian gently tossed the Flame Gathering Pot. It hovered slowly in front of the four Elders.

The four Elders exchanged glances, then each began forming hand seals.

As soon as their seals formed, a strange, circular energy pattern suddenly appeared on the ground beneath them.

Then, the Elders lightly placed their fingers on the surface of the pot and closed their eyes again.

Vast amounts of Dou Qi surged from within their bodies, flowing like tides into the Flame Gathering Pot.

Four distinct streams of fire-attributed Dou Qi, each with slightly different hues, flowed into the pot like trickling streams.

Boom!

As the Dou Qi entered, the surface of the pot suddenly exploded with intense light.

Then, like a stone dropped into a calm lake, invisible ripples spread out rapidly from the pot.

Those energy ripples swirled upward like smoke, enveloping the entire Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower in a gentle, glowing shroud.

The Flame Gathering Pot then slowly floated up into the air.

Under the guidance of the formation laid down by Mang Tianchi, it continuously began supplying Heart Flame energy to the cultivation rooms throughout the tower.

"The Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower… finally has its Heart Flame again…"

Gazing at the scene before him, Su Qian murmured with delight, his heart relaxing.

Ever since the Fallen Heart Flame was stolen, the tower had lost its core energy source.

These past days, the pressure on him had been immense.

Now, at last, he could finally breathe a bit easier.

But the moment he thought of that ungrateful brat Xiao Yan, Su Qian couldn't help clenching his jaw.

Next time he saw that bastard, he swore he'd tear him to pieces to relieve his hatred!

"Elder Su, now that the tower has been supplied with Heart Flame again, I'll head down to begin my seclusion."

Having recovered about sixty percent of his Dou Qi with the aid of the pill, Lin Feng suddenly spoke.

"Haha, our Jia Nan Academy keeps its word. Pavilion Master Lin, please go ahead."

Upon hearing Lin Feng's words, Su Qian withdrew his gaze from the hovering pot and replied with a smile.

After all, they would still need Lin Feng's help in the future to continue providing the tower with Heart Flame. Naturally, Su Qian dared not offend him.

"Then I'll take my leave first."

Lin Feng cupped his fist in farewell, then walked to the edge of the pit, which was radiating a strong red glow. With a light bend of his knees, he leapt in.

As his body plummeted downward, the sound of scorching wind howled past his ears.

The deeper he descended into the magma world, the more unbearably hot the surrounding air became.

After falling for more than ten minutes, Lin Feng finally arrived at the vast and expansive world of lava below.

Staring at the same deathly still crimson world as before, Lin Feng immediately summoned the Glazed Lotus Heart Flame within him, forming a circular shield around his body.

After all, in this place, the very air was saturated with a toxic fire essence.

Without a protective shield, even someone at the Dou Huang level would find it extremely troublesome in this environment.

After a brief moment of thought, Lin Feng decided to recover his Dou Qi before diving into the lava below to retrieve the crimson fire beads.

With a flip of his palm, the emerald flame within his body surged out eagerly, competing to pour forth.

Lin Feng flicked his finger, and a massive fireball—several meters wide—shot directly toward a distant rock cliff.

Under the terrifying heat of the Glazed Lotus Heart Flame, the solid rock wall melted like ice cream in the sun.

Soon, a cave several meters wide appeared on the cliff face.

With a flap of his wings, Lin Feng's figure flashed and reappeared inside the newly formed cave.

Sitting cross-legged, Lin Feng slowly closed his eyes and entered a meditative state.

As he began cultivating, the surrounding space trembled violently.

A sea of visible crimson energy swept forth from all directions, flooding toward Lin Feng's body in a mad rush.

Several hours later, Lin Feng slowly opened his pitch-black eyes, a flash of brilliance flickering within them.

By now, he had returned to peak condition.

Standing up, he stretched slightly, and the cracking sounds of popping joints echoed throughout the cave.

Gazing at the molten sea of lava below, Lin Feng summoned the Heavenly Flame within him, forming a protective shield of fire.

He looked down at the endless red lava—and dove straight in.

Splash~

With a soft splash, Lin Feng plunged into the lava.

Crimson bubbles gurgled up from the lava's surface, only to burst rapidly and disappear without a trace.

Surrounded by scalding red magma, Lin Feng remained calm—he had experience here—and continued diving deeper without hesitation.

It was unclear how much time had passed when Lin Feng suddenly sensed a sharp gust of wind sweeping toward his right.

"Hehe… finally, a prey comes to me."

Sensing the incoming attack, Lin Feng didn't panic; instead, a look of delight appeared on his face.

He shifted slightly backward, easily dodging the sweeping tail of a red-scaled creature.

Then, with golden light flashing across his fingers, his hand struck out like lightning, piercing directly into the fire lizard's body.

With the terrifying penetrating force of the strike, the life force in the fire lizard's eyes rapidly faded until nothing remained.

Just as Lin Feng was about to extract the fire bead from its body, the surrounding lava suddenly began to surge violently.

A massive sphere of lava—several meters wide—hurtled toward him like a cannonball.

Reacting quickly, Lin Feng stowed the fire lizard's corpse into his storage ring and flicked his finger.

A green fireball shot forward to intercept the incoming lava sphere.

Boom!

With a thunderous explosion, the two balls of energy collided, sending powerful ripples through the lava all around.

Seizing the opportunity, Lin Feng's figure flashed like lightning and appeared before a second fire lizard.

At some point, a glazed flame-colored spear had appeared in his hand.

With a forceful thrust, the spear struck forward—and the fire lizard's grotesque head exploded into pulp.

Decapitated, the fire lizard—despite possessing strength comparable to a Dou Wang—was now well and truly dead.

"Heh, these fire lizard are pretty easy to deal with. All brawn, no technique—don't even know any powerful Dou Techniques."

Chuckling, Lin Feng stored the corpse into his ring, his voice tinged with excitement.

With his powerful soul perception, he sensed three more Dou Wang-level fire lizard speeding in his direction.

Lin Feng gave a light laugh, gripped the flaming spear in hand, and charged forth to greet them head-on.
