BTTH: From Genius to Invincible-Chapter 272 - : The Green Lotus Reigns Supreme

The hot-tempered Elder Huo saw the enemies attempting to flee and shouted loudly, "Chase them!"

"Don't chase. If you go after them, the Inner Academy will be finished," Xiao Yan halted the elders who were about to give chase.

Although Xiao Yan also wanted to capture Han Feng, there were more important matters to address at the moment.

His attention had never left the Fallen Heart Flame.

"Stop pretending. You wouldn't be a Heavenly Flame Spirit if you could be so easily subdued." Xiao Yan merely stood quietly in the air, not stopping Han Feng from leaving, while gazing at the Fallen Heart Flame immobilized by the Thousand Layer Sealing Formation.

How could a Heavenly Flame that had developed intelligence and had been residing in the underground magma region for so long, accumulating vast amounts of energy, possibly be sealed by just over a dozen Dou Kings, a few Dou Emperors, and some advantageous terrain?

As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, the Fallen Heart Flame suddenly opened its eyes and hissed! A series of screeching sounds echoed!

"What!"

"Quick! Circulate your Dou Qi!"

Before Hu Gan and the others had a chance to reinforce the seal, the Fallen Heart Flame suddenly inhaled sharply. The residual Heavenly Flames from the earlier collision between the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame and the Sea Heart Flame seemed to sprout legs as they all flew into its mouth.

A powerful suction force erupted from within the Fallen Heart Flame. Su Qian and the others noticed it. They hurriedly turned their gazes over, and their expressions changed drastically.

"Stop it!"

Su Qian immediately sprang into action. His figure flickered and appeared like a ghost within ten meters of the Fallen Heart Flame. However, a large cluster of scorching, colorless flames shot toward his face before he could make a move, forcing him to dodge hastily.

The Fallen Heart Flame's devouring speed was terrifying. In the brief moment it took Su Qian to dodge, all the residual Heavenly Flames had been completely consumed by it.

An even more violent energy than before slowly swept out from within the Fallen Heart Flame with such a massive amount of fire energy entering its body, and immediately spread throughout the entire Inner Academy.

"What is this!!"

"Heart Flame?!"

In an instant, clusters of colorless Heart Flames suddenly ignited within the hearts of all students and elders in the Inner Academy. The students were no strangers to Heart Flame; after all, they entered the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower to cultivate using these Heart Flames.

"This is bad! Everyone, don't channel Dou Qi through these Heart Flames!!" Xiao Yan shouted as the Seed Flame of the Nihility Devouring Flame within his body surged out and immediately extinguished the Heart Flame.

Although his warning was quick, some impatient students acted as if they were cultivating in the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower upon seeing the Heart Flames appear and attempted to channel Dou Qi through them for purification.

But they forgot that the reason the Heart Flames in the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower could purify Dou Qi was because they were refined and pure Heart Flames.

The Heart Flames unleashed by the Fallen Heart Flame, however, were meant to kill!

"Ahhh!!"

"How can this be! It's different from the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower!"

"Save me! Help!!"

In an instant, many weaker students spontaneously combusted; white smoke sizzled from their bodies as they actually caught fire from within!

Not only did the students have invisible Heart Flames surging within them, but even the elders were affected, their faces turning beet red!

The Fallen Heart Flame seized the moment when the Inner Academy elders were distracted. Its entire body erupted with flames as it impacted the seal. A thunderous boom rang out as it broke through the Thousand Layer Sealing Formation and charged straight toward Xiao Yan in the sky.

The greed in its eyes was evident.

"Heh, you want to swallow me?" Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed slightly. A hunter must always be prepared to become prey at any moment.

Suddenly, a seven-colored divine light shot over from afar!

This seven-colored divine light swept across just as the Fallen Heart Flame was about to open its bloody maw and swallow Xiao Yan. Even the Fallen Heart Flame had its flames inexplicably weakened when struck by this divine light, as if some monster had devoured a portion of its energy.

"Xiao Yan, are you alright?!" First Elder Su Qian hurriedly approached and struck out with his palm. The power of a Dou Ancestor surged forth. A Dou Ancestor could already utilize a bit of Spatial Strength even without using Dou Techniques. As a result, the Fallen Heart Flame was heavily repelled.

Xiao Yan saw Su Qian coming to his aid. He gave a strained smile, but his pale face revealed his current weakness.

Although he had defeated Han Feng, he had relied on the Skyfire Three Mysterious Change and consumed a vast amount of Spiritual Strength to produce the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame.

Even with Spiritual Strength at the Perfected Mortal State, he was somewhat overwhelmed by the continuous battles and using such a powerful move.

"That seven-colored light just now..." The First Elder looked into the distance. That seven-colored light definitely possessed the strength of a Dou Ancestor!

Since when did the Inner Academy have another Dou Ancestor without his knowledge?!

"That's my ally, here to help me deal with the Fallen Heart Flame," Xiao Yan stared in the Fallen Heart Flame's direction and said solemnly.

Su Qian's eyes instantly filled with joy. With another Dou Ancestor to help, they would have even greater confidence in resealing the Fallen Heart Flame!

"Xiao Yan, as long as we can protect the Inner Academy students and reseal the Fallen Heart Flame beneath the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, no matter the cost, I, Su Qian, will afford it!" First Elder Su Qian declared boldly, intending to request Queen Medusa's assistance.

Xiao Yan turned to look at the First Elder and said gravely, "First Elder, do you really think we can seal the Fallen Heart Flame back into the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower again?"

! ! ! !

Su Qian looked at the Fallen Heart Flame eyeing them like a tiger watching its prey and sighed inwardly before saying, "If you have any suggestions, feel free to share them."

"First Elder, I do have the ability to reseal the Fallen Heart Flame beneath the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, but at most in a year or so, when it has accumulated power again, it will resurface, and it will definitely be even stronger than this time."

Xiao Yan looked seriously at the First Elder and said, "This student is already a Dou King and no longer has any attachments at Jia Nan Academy; I will be leaving soon."

His words made his point clear. Although Jia Nan Academy had repelled Han Feng this time, and he was confident he could suppress the Fallen Heart Flame again...

But he couldn't remain at Jia Nan Academy forever; in other words, there would be no next time!

If he wasn't here next time, would Jia Nan Academy still have the ability to resist the Black-Corner Region and an even stronger Fallen Heart Flame?

The First Elder sighed. How could he not understand? Let alone next time, if not for Xiao Yan defeating Han Feng this time, causing those jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards of the Black-Corner Region to flee in panic...

If they had really fought to the end, the ultimate beneficiary would have been the Fallen Heart Flame. The academy would still have been destroyed.

"Xiao Yan, you have done much for the academy. Whatever you have to say, just say it directly," the First Elder said seriously.

"First Elder, to be honest, my Qi Method is very special and allows me to refine multiple Heavenly Flames. And the condition for my friend's assistance is to enter the Heavenly Flame space to absorb the Fallen Heart Flame's energy within and condense a Heavenly Flame body," Xiao Yan said earnestly.

How could First Elder Su Qian not understand upon hearing these words? From the very beginning when Xiao Yan enrolled, he had set his sights on the Fallen Heart Flame.

That mysterious Dou Ancestor ally even wanted to enter the Heavenly Flame space to absorb energy.

Xiao Yan saw the First Elder's hesitation and solemn expression. He raised his hand and said, "Regardless, I will do my best to help the academy overcome this crisis."

The Fallen Heart Flame stared intently at Xiao Yan with piercing eyes but dared not act rashly. It was currently contemplating whether to flee immediately or to swallow Xiao Yan to become even stronger, as he possessed the Essence Flame.

"Xiao Yan, are you on the academy's side?" Su Qian suddenly asked seriously.

"No matter what happens in the future, Jia Nan Academy will always be my alma mater," Xiao Yan said earnestly after taking a deep breath.

"Sigh, enough. The Headmaster once said that the Fallen Heart Flame couldn't be trapped forever. Since we're going to lose it anyway, we might as well give it to you." The First Elder sighed. When the Fallen Heart Flame erupted and broke the seal, he knew it could no longer be contained.

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up with joy. If not for the current atmosphere being inappropriate, he would have shouted, 'The First Elder is wise!' and perhaps slipped him a few pills as a token of gratitude.

"Since you've said this much, you must have a comprehensive plan. How should we assist you?" The First Elder asked directly.

"I hope the First Elder can assist me in dealing with the Fallen Heart Flame, while the other elders use formations to weaken its power," Xiao Yan said with a grin.

The First Elder immediately waved his hand and commanded loudly, "Everyone, switch formations! Use the Heavenly Cold Chain Formation to weaken the Fallen Heart Flame!"

His voice boomed. Subsequently, all the elders took their positions and channeled their Dou Qi into the academy's prearranged formation. A clattering sound echoed as dozens of icy chains shot up from the ground and wrapped around the Fallen Heart Flame in a bizarre manner!

Wisps of smoke rose from the Fallen Heart Flame as the icy chains ensnared it. Piercing shrieks echoed endlessly across the sky.

Xiao Yan circulated the Flame Mantra madly, seizing the moment while his Skyfire Three Mysterious Change Secret Technique was still active. The Yin-Yang Twin Flame within his Acceptance Soul instantly emerged.

'Heavenly Flame Dou Technique, Yin-Yang Dual Extremes!' Xiao Yan shouted inwardly as he transformed into a fiery arrow shooting straight toward the Fallen Heart Flame.

Hiss!! Seeing that Xiao Yan not only didn't flee but attacked instead, the Fallen Heart Flame twisted its body violently and lunged at him with a massive bite.

'Death Flame!' Xiao Yan formed hand seals with both hands and frantically channeled the Death Flame. Instantly, overwhelming black flames surged toward the Fallen Heart Flame like a tidal wave.

The black Death Flame enveloped the Fallen Heart Flame and continuously corroded its Heavenly Flame energy. At the same time, the white Life Flame shielded Xiao Yan by isolating him from its Heart Flames.

Hiss hiss hiss!!! The Fallen Heart Flame violently shook its body, throwing off the Death Flame, then opened its mouth when only ten meters away from Xiao Yan.

"Medusa!"

As Xiao Yan's voice fell, a graceful figure with waterfall-like long black hair stepped through the air.

She eyed the transparent Fire Python with her arms crossed over her chest, a cold smile playing at the corner of her mouth. "A mere snake spirit dares to be arrogant before this Queen?"

Under everyone's watchful eyes, she condensed a seven-colored energy imprint in her palm and struck fiercely at the head of the transparent Fire Python.

The charging transparent Fire Python collided violently with her seven-colored handprint amidst a thunderous explosion.

Medusa's terrifying energy sent the transparent Fire Python flying with a single palm strike, forcing the Fallen Heart Flame into the magma world beneath the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.

Su Qian's expression changed when he saw Queen Medusa walking through the air, "Is this the legendary Queen Medusa? And her bloodline has successfully evolved. She's reached the strength of a Dou Ancestor!"

Xiao Yan said, "She is my friend, here to help me subdue the Fallen Heart Flame. Let's go; we'll enter the underground world."

With that, Xiao Yan spread his Dou Qi wings and led the way into the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, which had a huge hole blasted into it. Medusa merely gave Su Qian a faint glance before following Xiao Yan into the underground world.

Su Qian could only shake his head helplessly. You still claim innocence? You even brought a Dou Ancestor!

The pressure Medusa brought surpassed even that of the Golden Silver Elders. Xiao Yan's setup was clearly here to seize!

...

Upon entering, they were greeted by a crimson red similar to fresh blood. Xiao Yan's eyes slowly widened as he realized that the redness came from countless streams of magma flowing slowly.

Medusa stood beside Xiao Yan, watching the Fallen Heart Flame soaking in the magma and absorbing the earth's core power. She said, "Hey, this fellow is recovering its strength. Don't tell me you don't have any other plan."

Xiao Yan smiled faintly and retracted the Yin-Yang Twin Flame back into his Acceptance Soul. He had discovered that the Fallen Heart Flame's main body resided in an underground magma ocean when he reached the ninth floor earlier.

"This is indeed where you were born, but in the world beneath the earth's core, the Green Lotus reigns supreme!"

The Flame Mantra circulated wildly. All the Green Lotus Core Flame that Xiao Yan could mobilize surged out from his body at this moment!

The flames condensing above Xiao Yan's head grew increasingly emerald green as the Green Lotus Core Flame continuously poured out. After a few moments, the flames suddenly wriggled in a strange manner. A lotus entirely formed from the Green Lotus Core Flame emerged moments later.

This green fire lotus was as clear as jade, with strands resembling green magma constantly flowing within. It was extremely dazzling.

"Ha!" Xiao Yan pressed his palm down forcefully, and all the Green Lotus Core Flame above his head poured into the Green Colored Lotus Platform. Under his mental control, the green lotus drilled into the magma world.

Boom boom boom!!!

Instantly, the entire magma world began to shake violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Hiss hiss hiss!!! The transparent Fire Python abruptly burst out from the magma. It looked in horror at the magma world it inhabited and found that it could no longer control the magma power of this earth vein!

Poof!! A gigantic green lotus suddenly grew out from the magma ocean, rising unstained from the magma like a lotus emerging from the mud!

Born deep within the earth, it had undergone the polishing, fusion, compression, and carving of the planet's flame. It formed a spirit in ten years, took shape in a hundred years, and transformed into a lotus in a thousand years. When it was fully formed, its color would tilt toward the green side, and a cluster of green flame known as the Green Lotus Flame would be born at its lotus core, also called the Green Lotus Core Flame!

In regions near volcanoes, it could even trigger volcanic eruptions, forming a destructive force of nature!

Xiao Yan's Spiritual Strength surged out. Although this was the birthplace of the Fallen Heart Flame, the power here was no longer under its control. It was being manipulated by him instead!

Under his control, the magma transformed into a giant hand that firmly grasped the transparent Fire Python with a snapping sound!

"Got you." Xiao Yan stood atop the gigantic green lotus that had grown and made a gripping motion with his right hand.

The miraculous abilities of the Green Lotus Core Flame could only be fully displayed in the magma world beneath the earth's veins. Ordinarily, it might not have any special abilities, but in specific places, its power would become infinitely strong!
