Chapter 86: Star Realm, Three Thousand Burning Flame!
Pill Region
As Zi Yan's figure completely disappeared, Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin reluctantly withdrew their gazes.
"We should be happy that Zi Yan got to meet her clansmen this time, and... it's not like we won't see her again!" Gu Fei consoled them with a carefree demeanor.
After that, they climbed onto the back of the Lion King and started heading toward Holy Pill City.
Inside the spatial wormhole, it was as monotonous as always, but this time it wasn't silent. On a wide space tunnel, countless space ships zipped by, and the air was filled with the noise of travelers, making the space tunnel lively.
As they continued their journey through this bustling route, the legendary Holy Pill City grew ever closer.
One morning, Xiao Yi Xian woke up early, and after a brief wash, she planned to wake up Qing Lin.
She cleared her throat, "Qing Lin, Zi... It's time to get up, we're almost there."
Habitually calling out Zi Yan's name, she paused, covering the sadness in her eyes.
After all, they had been through so much together, and even though two days had passed, Xiao Yi Xian was still not used to Zi Yan's sudden departure.
Gu Fei quickly noticed her sudden hesitation.
He embraced Xiao Yi Xian, holding her close with his warm body.
"Don't be too sad, we will meet Zi Yan again in the future."
Xiao Yi Xian looked up, hesitatingly asking, "Really?"
Gu Fei gently rubbed Xiao Yi Xian's head, smiling as he said, "We definitely will."
Xiao Yi Xian developed feelings of dependence, emotion value +100
Xiao Yi Xian murmured a response, nestling herself into Gu Fei's embrace, a happy smile on her face.
A few days later, after emerging from the spatial wormhole again, Gu Fei, Xiao Yi Xian, and the others found themselves in a massive plaza entirely constructed of crimson rock.
The plaza seemed endless, with the only visible feature being a red line stretching to the horizon.
Judging by its size, it was at least a thousand meters wide, and standing in it made a person feel as insignificant as a tiny ant.
"Wow... this is so magnificent!" Qing Lin exclaimed in awe, her eyes filled with curiosity.
"This is just one of the space points outside Holy Pill City; there are eight such space plazas in the outer region," Gu Fei explained.
"A plaza like this is probably almost a tenth the size of Ye City, and yet Holy Pill City has eight of them?" Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin couldn't help but marvel at the grandeur of the place, their eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation as they looked around.
"Haha, no need to be surprised. Holy Pill City is divided into an outer region and an inner region. Right now, we're in the outer region, and the Pill Tower is in the inner region. However, whether it's the outer or inner region, it's all under the jurisdiction of the Pill Tower," Gu Fei said, laughing at their astonished expressions. "Although Holy Pill City is called a city, it's far from an ordinary city. In terms of size alone, even dozens of Ye Cities couldn't compare to it!"
Venerable Tian Huo didn't say anything, but his eyes also held a hint of yearning. However, his reaction wasn't as exaggerated as Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin's. He had been here before, so he knew a bit about Holy Pill City.
In this true central area of the Central Plains, riding a sixth-rank flying magical beast would still attract attention, but it wouldn't be seen as unusual. Here, even a sixth-grade alchemist, a rare and highly valued existence in the outside world, seemed quite ordinary.
In just a short time after entering the outer region, Gu Fei and his group encountered at least two or three people wearing sixth-grade alchemist badges.
Since it was already dusk, Gu Fei didn't take the group around Holy Pill City but instead found an inn where they could stay.
As time passed, night slowly descended over the entire city. On the balcony of the inn's second floor, Gu Fei stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the brilliant stars in the sky.
The Three Thousand Burning Flame was hidden within the starry sky of the inner region of Sacred Pill City.
Gu Fei was determined to obtain the Three Thousand Burning Flame.
Beside him stood Xiao Yi Xian, dressed in a white dress, gracefully poised.
The moonlight poured down from the sky, shining on her body like a silver veil, adding an extra touch of allure.
"Not resting yet?" Gu Fei smiled, wrapping his arm around her slender waist and whispering in her ear, causing Xiao Yi Xian to blush and soften her gaze.
Xiao Yi Xian felt shy, emotion value +100
By now, Gu Fei and Xiao Yi Xian had become a couple, and their conversations were filled with flirtation.
She still had the gentle smile of the Xiao Yi Xian from Qingshan Town, her red lips slightly upturned.
Though she appeared delicate and harmless, she possessed the terrifying Woeful Poison Body.
Her physique allowed her to cultivate rapidly, and now Xiao Yi Xian had reached the Dou Spirit level.
This terrifying speed was even after Gu Fei had previously instructed her to control the dosage of her poison pills, intentionally suppressing her growth.
After all, in the original story, Xiao Yi Xian took just over three years to grow from someone who had never cultivated before to a three-star Dou Ancestor.
And that little girl Qing Lin, now also had the strength of a Dou Grandmaster.
She could absorb the energy of snake-shaped magical beasts controlled by her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils.
This cheat-like ability was akin to the energy-absorbing techniques in martial arts worlds.
On the balcony, the two of them leaned against each other, quietly admiring the vast starry sky.
"I'm a little tired," Xiao Yi Xian softly said, closing her eyes for a moment.
Gu Fei gently massaged her temples and whispered, "Then rest early."
"Mm... you should rest early too," Xiao Yi Xian gave Gu Fei a wistful look before turning to leave.
After Xiao Yi Xian went inside her room, Gu Fei's eyes flickered.
Then, he slowly closed them.
At the moment his eyes shut, a vast amount of spiritual energy surged from the center of his brows, spreading out and extending toward the dazzling starry sky.
Soon, this spiritual energy penetrated a strange energy barrier and entered a dark realm.
In this spiritual vision, a massive dragon, almost endless in sight, coiled and hovered, its eyes closed.
Around its body, a peculiar purple-black flame swirled.
"So this is the Three Thousand Burning Flame, no wonder it ranks ninth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking!" Gu Fei murmured to himself as he observed the purple-black flames and the pressure emanating from the dragon's body.
The Three Thousand Burning Flame, also known as the Three Thousand Star Burning Flame, forms in the starry sky and can absorb the power of the stars, continuously growing stronger.
According to ancient records, when the Three Thousand Burning Flame forms, silver flames would descend from the sky, turning a thousand-mile radius into a desert. Day and night would become indistinguishable, stars would disappear, and the sun could not rise.
Because it resided in a place as unreachable as the starry sky, the Three Thousand Burning Flame could usually exist relatively longer than the other Heavenly Flames allowing itself sufficient time to evolve. Thus, most discovered Three Thousand Burning Flames are highly intelligent and among the most powerful spiritual beings. Even if one were to find it, capturing it would be an extremely difficult task.
This heavenly flame possesses a unique ability known as the "Three Thousand Star Constitution," allowing it to absorb the power of stars to strengthen itself or heal wounds. For this reason, some strong individuals who have fought against those possessing the Three Thousand Burning Flame have dubbed this body the "Undying Body."
At this moment, Gu Fei's heart burned with desire as he gazed at the silently burning purple-black flame.
"Who dares to spy on the Star Realm of Holy Pill City!"
Just as Gu Fei was pondering, a stern voice suddenly rang out in his soul.
The unexpected shout carried immense pressure, impacting his spiritual energy.
However, his soul was already at the Spirit Realm Stage, so the wisp of his spiritual energy wasn't dispersed; instead, it quietly returned to his body.
