Chapter 130: Gu He's Detection, Gathering of Strong Ones!

A streak of light immediately flew out of the porcelain bottle and soared towards the sky, but it soon collided with an invisible barrier, revealing a phantom figure.

"You're not that old man's disciple, why are you targeting me?"

"All the belongings in my Spatial Ring were taken by you, what else do you want?"

Han Feng's remaining soul was still struggling.

"I want the Sea Heart Flame on you."

Yun Tianming used powerful Soul Power to weave a huge network, firmly trapping Han Feng's remnant soul.

"If I give you the Heavenly Flame, will you spare me?"

Han Feng's face was full of horror, his desperate desire for survival making him willing to pay any price.

"No, to eradicate the roots, as long as I completely erase you, I can still obtain the Heavenly Flame."

Yun Tianming gave no chance to the other party, directly employing the Soul Technique, transforming into invisible blades that heavily struck Han Feng's thin remnant soul.

"Wait, wait. Don't come any closer!"

With a wail of despair, Han Feng's remnant soul completely dissipated into the heavens and earth. The Sea Heart Flame that was refined by him was finally liberated.

"Wow."

A deep blue flame floated in the air like liquid.

"Sea Heart Flame, ranked fifteenth among the Heavenly Flames."

"It seems the refining difficulty is not small."

Yun Tianming felt a strong resonance from the Green Lotus Core Flame within him. Green flames overflowed from his skin pores, emitting astonishing heat, as if facing a formidable enemy in front of the Sea Heart Flame.

"Whoosh~"

The Sea Heart Flame rapidly expanded, forming a deep blue sea of fire in the sky, almost occupying the entire expanse of the heavens. One could even hear the roaring sound of waves and surging tides.

"What a terrifying flame!"

"Is this the Heavenly Flame?"

"Why is it coming again?"

"Speaking of which, isn't it said that Alchemists can only master one type of flame? Why can this human simultaneously refine two Heavenly Flames?"

For treasures like the Heavenly Flame, even in the vast Dou Qi Continent, there are at most twenty-three types. Being able to refine one type of Heavenly Flame is already incredibly lucky; simultaneously refining two types is beyond imagination!

At this moment, the people of the Snake People Tribe all looked up at the deep blue sea of fire in the sky, involuntarily revealing expressions of fear on their faces.

The violent energy released by the Heavenly Flame quickly spread thousands of miles away.

This quickly caught the attention of Gu He, who possessed keen Soul Perception!

"This is the aura of the Heavenly Flame!"

"It's coming from the Tager Desert!"

The middle-aged man sitting cross-legged suddenly opened his eyes wide, and a noticeable ripple appeared on his calm face. Over a year ago, Gu He had already faintly sensed the aura of the Heavenly Flame. However, before he could gather enough manpower, the battle for this Heavenly Flame had already ended prematurely.

"Ling'er!"

"Yes, teacher!"

A young man entered the room.

"Take my letters and hurry to find Yan Shi from Shi Wang City and Walking Wind Feng Li."

"Yes, sir!" Liu Ling took the jade token given by Gu He and moved quickly.

As for Gu He himself, he personally came to the Misty Cloud Sect to invite Yun Yun to join this battle.

"Elder Gu He, please return. The teacher is in a crucial period of closed-door cultivation and refuses to meet anyone."

Nalan Yanran blocked Gu He's path, not allowing him to disturb Yun Yun's cultivation.

"Yanran, step aside. I really have urgent matters to ask Sect Master for help!"

Gu He waved his hand, his face showing some impatience.

"I'm very sorry, but the teacher is in closed-door cultivation and declines to see anyone."

Nalan Yanran shook her head, firmly rejecting Gu He's intention.

"But... sigh!"

Gu He was suddenly speechless, unable to find any reason to refute her. Since the incident with the Qi Gathering Powder, his relationship with Yun Yun had gradually become distant. He had invited her several times to act as his enforcer, but she had refused for various reasons, leaving Gu He feeling frustrated.

"When I obtain the Heavenly Flame and my strength greatly increases, will you finally look at me with respect?"

A hint of fanaticism flashed in Gu He's eyes. In the Dou Qi Continent, strength was everything, and he firmly believed that as long as he became powerful enough, he would eventually win Yun Yun's favor!

To demand the Heavenly Flame from the Snake People Tribe, it's imperative to have a Dou Emperor powerhouse. But in the Jia Ma Empire, there are only a handful of renowned Dou Emperor powerhouses.

"Since we can't find any in the Jia Ma Empire, let's invite strong individuals from other countries!"

A glint flashed in Gu He's eyes. As a Sixth Grade Alchemist, his network extended far beyond the borders of the Jia Ma Empire!

...

Misty Cloud Sect, Sect Master's Residence.

"Teacher, Elder Gu He has left."

"I see."

At this moment, Yun Yun had already ended her seclusion, completed the conversion of Qi Methods, and was enjoying the benefits of the Earth Rank Low-Level Qi Method, rapidly advancing in her cultivation. In a year and a half, Yun Yun had risen from a 3 Star Dou Emperor to a 7 Star Dou Emperor!

"Teacher, do you have any thoughts about Elder Gu He?"

Nalan Yanran couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

Gu He's admiration for Yun Yun was almost an open secret. In the eyes of others, being a Sixth Grade Alchemist was quite prestigious and fully worthy of Yun Yun. It was considered a perfect match, a storybook romance that would be a highlight of the Jia Ma Empire if they were to come together.

"No."

Yun Yun's answer was straightforward, without any hint of subtlety.

"I see."

Nalan Yanran wasn't particularly surprised by this response. After all, in her view, her teacher was a solitary practitioner. She never showed any close attitude towards any man.

Oh, by the way, Senior Tianming often chats and laughs with the teacher, but that should just be camaraderie among master and disciple, right?

"By the way, why hasn't Senior Tianming returned yet?"

Nalan Yanran's gaze drifted into the distance, her pretty face filled with longing.

"He's probably still on his journey of experience, I suppose."

Yun Yun's eyes flickered, and a hint of panic seemed to appear on her otherwise cool face.

Involuntarily, memories of that day in the Magic Beast Mountains, the moments of intimacy they shared, flashed through her mind.

"Huh? Teacher, your face, it's so red?!"

Nalan Yanran widened her eyes, as if she had stumbled upon something new and exciting, staring at Yun Yun with astonishment.

No way? Is it possible? The teacher's expression looks just like that of a woman in love!

Could it be that the teacher has feelings for someone?

Then who could it be?

"No way? Yanran, are you mistaken?"

Yun Yun raised her eyebrows, her jade-like hand slightly clenched, trying to maintain composure.

"Hmm, really?"

Nalan Yanran narrowed her eyes, a hint of doubt flashing across her face.

I just have a feeling that the teacher is very suspicious!
