Chapter 316: Alliance Against the Yun Lan Sect (Mist Cloud Sect)
Bang!
A young man was holding a heavy black ruler, surrounded by flames, striking forcefully at a powerful Emperor-level fighter.
"Phew, I finally got rid of my pursuer," Xiao Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Fortunately, the Emperor-level fighter who was following him only had the title in name, as his fighting energy was quite weak, allowing Xiao Yan to deal with him quickly.
Xiao Yan looked at the Emperor-level fighter, who was wearing the uniform of the Mist Cloud Sect, and exhaled deeply, remembering certain events from the past.
Back then, he had escaped from the Heavenly Qi Refining Tower base and absorbed the Fallen Heart Flame, greatly increasing his strength.
Moreover, due to the close relationship between the Great Elder Su Qian and Xiao Zhe, when Su Qian saw Xiao Yan absorb the Fallen Heart Flame, he had no choice but to let him find a solution to avoid disabling the tower, which was crucial for cultivation in the Inner Academy.
Eventually, Xiao Yan found a partial solution, dividing the power of the Fallen Heart Flame and placing it at the base of the tower, although it required frequent recharges.
The Great Elder could only accept this solution, as Xiao Yan was Xiao Zhe's brother, and he couldn't be too harsh on him.
After resolving the issues at Jia Nan Academy, Xiao Yan decided to return to the Jia Ma Empire.
Previously, due to his journey to Jia Nan Academy, he had been unable to fulfill his promise to Hai Bodong, but he was still interested in the mysterious fragmented map.
According to Yao Lao, that fragmented map could be related to the Purifying Demonic Lotus, the third item on the Strange Flames List.
After absorbing the Fallen Heart Flame, Xiao Yan was confident in his flame-devouring technique and didn't want to miss any clues about Strange Flames.
Therefore, he decided to return to the Jia Ma Empire to fulfill his promise to Hai Bodong and obtain the map.
Even if it was just a fragment, it was related to a Strange Flame.
Additionally, Xiao Yan had another goal in mind: the Blue Lotus Flame.
Years ago, rumors about the Blue Lotus Flame in the Tagore Desert were persistent, and Xiao Yan still hoped to find it there.
After returning to the Jia Ma Empire, Xiao Yan had many adventures, fulfilling his promise to Hai Bodong and daring to enter the Temple of the Snake People to obtain the Blue Lotus Flame.
However, he was pursued by four Emperor-level Snake elders, putting him in a difficult situation.
Finally, he discovered the connection between the Temple of the Snake People and Xiao Zhe, allowing him to escape with his life.
If not for that, even with Yao Lao's help, it would have been impossible to survive the ambush of four Emperor-level elders.
Nevertheless, Yao Lao's soul was damaged, and Xiao Yan had to go with Hai Bodong to the capital of the Jia Ma Empire in search of precious herbs to restore it.
Through a series of coincidences, Xiao Yan gained fame in the capital, being acclaimed for his remarkable alchemy skills.
Unfortunately, things don't always go well.
It was at that moment that the former master of the Mist Cloud Sect, Yun Shan, came out of retirement, quickly consolidating the sect.
Since then, the Mist Cloud Sect, formerly a cultivation sanctuary, became an aggressive war machine of expansion.
Any force that did not submit to the sect was ruthlessly annihilated.
Faced with the immense power of the sect and its policy of "killing one to scare a hundred," many forces submitted, becoming vassals or merging with the sect.
But where there was submission, there was also resistance.
Those who opposed the brutality of the Mist Cloud Sect formed an alliance against it, causing havoc within its territory.
At that time, Xiao Yan was part of this alliance against the Mist Cloud Sect.
Due to certain events, his relationship with the sect was tense, and his skill in both fighting and alchemy had granted him a high position in the alliance.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yan headed towards the horizon.
The Mist Cloud Sect had expanded its influence near the Black Corner Territory, where the Xiao family was, so he couldn't relax.
He sighed, "I wonder when the fourth brother will return. After so much time, his strength must have grown incredibly."
"If he returns from Zhongzhou, he should be able to resolve the chaos in the northwest."
Xiao Yan thought, feeling deeply tired, aware that his current difficulty was due to his lack of power.
If he could devour another Strange Flame, he would gain the strength necessary to overcome this crisis.
Unfortunately...
After a while, Xiao Yan spotted black lands, his destination: Jia Nan Academy in the Black Corner Territory.
Even with the powerful Mist Cloud Sect, taking over the Black Corner Territory wouldn't be easy. Xiao Yan knew it was a tough nut to crack.
The Black Corner Territory housed many hidden forces, with extremely powerful ancestors.
If it wasn't a matter of life and death, those elders wouldn't intervene.
Xiao Yan was heading to Jia Nan Academy not only to recharge the Fallen Heart Flame but also to seek an alliance with the academy against the Mist Cloud Sect.
As he approached the academy, he sensed a battle in progress.
"Master, should I go check it out?" Xiao Yan asked Yao Lao.
"If you're curious, go take a look, but be careful, the fighters are stronger than you," Yao Lao replied.
Surprised, Xiao Yan realized that the combatants were at least Zong level, stronger than him.
"A fight between Zongs... I wonder why they're fighting, could it be for a treasure?"
Xiao Yan licked his lips. Since joining the alliance against the Mist Cloud Sect, he had become bolder.
"Do you dare to have ideas about two Zongs?" Yao Lao asked.
"Hehe, not with you here, master. But first, I must find out why they're fighting," Xiao Yan said.
With Yao Lao's cover, Xiao Yan crossed a mountain and saw the two Zongs.
Before he could observe well, a third figure appeared, distorting space.
The figure wore a black cloak and a demonic mask, with a terrifying aura.
Under Xiao Yan's astonished gaze, the figure raised a hand and a grayish-purple mist covered the area.
The two Zongs began to scream in pain, and the figure turned towards Xiao Yan.
