Battle Through the Heavens

After     

the Falling Star Pavilion, the Pill Tower, the Flower Sect, and the     

Burning Flame Valley announced the formation of the ‘Sky Mansion     

Alliance,’ the entire Central Plains was blasted apart by this extremely     

huge bomb. Chaos instantly erupted across the land.    

The four big     

factions possessed extremely renowned reputations within the Central     

Plains. Any one of them could be considered a giant. A faction like the     

Pill Tower could no longer be described as a simple giant. This faction     

possessed an extremely frightening ability to gather people. It might     

have appeared extremely gentle over the years, but as long as one was     

not a fool, one would be able to detect the frightening strength hidden     

beneath this lazy appearance.    

The lineup from the formation of     

this alliance between four powerful factions was many times stronger     

than the ‘Profound River Alliance’ before. Compared to this newly formed     

‘Sky Mansion Alliance,’ the ‘Profound River Alliance’ was an extremely     

ordinary shrimp. Just a random finger of the ‘Sky Mansion Alliance’     

could destroy the ‘Profound River Alliance.’    

Everyone could     

imagine how much the strength of this alliance, formed by the four     

factions, would swell. If this large alliance were to face the extremely     

large Hall of Souls, it would no longer need to feel the least bit     

afraid!    

A new super faction that could match the strength of the Hall of Souls was born within the Central Plains.    

While     

the Central Plains was in an uproar over this explosive news, many     

sects and factions began to think. Everyone in the world thought of     

grabbing this giant support to gain good prospects. The strength of this     

‘Sky Mansion Alliance’ could only be described as shocking. In the     

future, few factions in this world could compare with them. If a faction     

or an individual was able to enjoy their protection, it would end up     

bringing them many benefits.    

Hence, on the third day after this     

news was released, the Falling Star Pavilion had suddenly become     

extremely lively. The leaders of tons of factions had hurried over a     

great distance to reach the Falling Star Pavilion. They were all     

requesting to join this alliance.    

Yao Lao and Xiao Yan did not     

accept all of these requests that came from everywhere. This alliance     

was their only capital to fight the Hall of Souls. Naturally, they     

viewed it with great importance. Most of these factions were     

fence-sitters. They had only come to them because the alliance was     

strong. Should the alliance end up losing its power, these people would     

immediately leave. At that time, it would be a blow to the alliance’s     

morale. Hence, they did not accept these factions, which were like rat     

feces.    

However, there was little need for Xiao Yan to worry about     

such matters. Due to this being a busy period of time, Feng zun-zhe, who     

had been managing the tasks in the other territories of the Falling     

Star Pavilion, had been summoned back by Yao Lao. During these years,     

Feng zun-zhe and Yao Lao had managed the external matters and internal     

matters of the Falling Star Pavilion. This was a key reason for the     

rapid development of the Falling Star Pavilion. Although Feng zun-zhe’s     

reputation and strength were both inferior to Yao Lao, he was better at     

Yao Lao when it came to management. Hence, Yao Lao hurriedly dispatched     

some other Elders to take over Feng zun-zhe’s previous tasks once the     

alliance was successful. Then Feng zun-zhe hurried back and resolve all     

these troublesome tasks.    

There was clearly no need to doubt Feng     

zun-zhe’s ability to manage. Soon after returning to the Falling Star     

Pavilion, he had begun to settle various tasks. After numerous tasks     

were settled in an orderly fashion by Feng zun-zhe, both Xiao Yan and     

Yao Lao ended up feeling a little ashamed…    

Following the flow of     

time, some factions passed the strict selection process and successfully     

joined the ‘Sky Mansion Alliance.’ This allowed this alliance’s     

reputation to continue rising a little at a time. If this positive cycle     

continued, the potential of the ‘Sky Mansion Alliance’ would     

undoubtedly be a little frightening with the help of the Pill Tower.    

The     

four big factions had made full use this period of time to build the     

wormholes. Now, they would be able to rapidly hurry to each other’s aid.     

Only then could they be considered an alliance that attacked and     

defended together.    

However, Xiao Yan found it a little surprising     

that the Hall of Souls did not do anything while the alliance was busy.     

It was as though they need not care about this alliance that could     

threaten them..    

Regardless of what the Hall of Souls did, Xiao     

Yan’s group had decided to establish a specialized Information Hall     

after some discussions. The aim of this Information Hall was to     

investigate all of the branches the Hall of Souls had created across the     

Central Plains. One should always know one’s enemy as well as one knows     

oneself. The Hall of Souls was their greatest enemy. Hence, the     

alliance needed to be aware of their locations. Once the time was ripe,     

they might even be able to shift from being passive to being active…    

It     

must be said that the cooperation of the four big factions after the     

formation of the alliance was extremely great. Within half a month, two     

of the branch halls of the Hall of Souls had been discovered. Although     

they had suffered some losses during the search, they still ended up     

gaining a lot.    

Xiao Yan felt the impulse to eliminate these branch     

halls personally, but he suppressed this impulse after calming down.     

Although the strength of the alliance had been increased, they would end     

up in a situation where no one would win if they were to fight to the     

death with the Hall of Souls now. This ending was not what Xiao Yan     

desired because there was still the even more frightening Hun clan     

behind the Hall of Souls.    

The alliance might be a sharp weapon     

used to fight the Hall of Souls, but it was also a powerful strength to     

deter the Hall of Souls. It must possess a powerful strength at all     

times. Otherwise, this alliance would ultimately end up in the same     

situation as ancestor Xiao Xuan.    

This alliance was only in its     

infancy. Once everything stabilized in the future, the influence and the     

abilities of the Pill Tower might even attract some Ban Sheng or even     

some Dou Sheng old demons who were living in isolation. If it was     

possible to absorb them into the alliance, they would truly benefit the     

alliance.    

Hence, the current ‘Sky Mansion Alliance’ could not be     

arrogant just because of the recent increase in strength. They would     

only succeed in dealing with the Hall of Souls and the Hun clan if they     

accumulated strength slowly and were always well-prepared.    

()[a]    

They would quietly gather strength and wait for the proper time to unleash it!    

While     

the alliance was searching for the locations of the Hall of Souls, the     

alliance also selected some extremely powerful experts to form some     

small teams. These teams were created to prevent the Hall of Souls from     

continuing to capture the souls of the alliance’s alchemists. These     

small teams would roam the territories of the alliance. They would hurry     

over at the fastest speed if they discovered any alliance signal that     

requested help!    

This special protection undoubtedly pleased the     

alchemists from the Pill Tower. Some of the alchemists, who had been     

displeased about the Pill Tower giving up its neutral stance, gradually     

accepted the protection and the benefits that this alliance provided     

them with.    

One month quietly passed while this alliance was bustling with activity and unleashing a shocking potential…    

Xiao     

Yan, Yao Lao, Cai Lin, the Little Fairy Doctor, and some others were     

seated in a quiet courtyard within the Falling Star Pavilion. It was a     

rare opportunity for them to gather together. This busy period had made     

it impossible for all of them to free themselves.    

“There has still     

been no reaction from the Hall of Souls. If I have guessed correctly,     

they should be waiting for the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame that will     

appear in nine months.” Yao Lao lifted his teacup. He sipped from it     

before slowly revealing his thoughts.    

“How could they know any     

information regarding the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame?” Xiao Yan knit     

his brows. This news was something that he had learned after spending     

over a decade collecting all the map fragments. How was it possible for     

the Hun clan to know of it?    

“The things that the Hun clan know far     

exceed what you can imagine…” Yao Lao smiled faintly and said. “This is     

also not the first time the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame has appeared.     

They have been around for many years, and probably have records of it.”    

Xiao     

Yan was a little speechless after hearing this explanation. His hand     

rubbed his forehead without realizing it. If the mysterious light inside     

of his head was useless, it was really a waste to search for all the     

map fragments.    

“There are still nine months before the Purifying     

Demonic Lotus Flame will appear. You should also make preparations. The     

Hall of Souls will definitely dispatch truly strong individuals to     

snatch it. Hence, we must try our best to raise our strength as much as     

possible.” Yao Lao spoke.    

“It is not easy to advance even a little     

within the Dou Sheng class. In another three months, I should be able     

to reach the one star Dou Sheng intermediate level. At this rate, I will     

only, at the very most, be at the peak one star Dku Sheng class after     

nine months…” Xiao Yan helplessly uttered.    

“I am not talking about     

you. I am talking about Cai Lin. She is a Seven-Colored Heaven     

Swallowing Python. As long as as she is provided with enough energy, she     

will quickly advance to the Ban Sheng class. The Heaven Swallowing     

Python’s physical body is strong. She will be able to fight against a     

genuine Dou Sheng. If she can advance to the Ban Sheng class, she will     

be of great help to you.” Yao Lao laughed. “That little girlfriend of     

yours in the Gu clan is rumored to have undertaken a retreat after     

leaving the Ancient Wasteland Region. Once she exits her retreat, the Gu     

clan will have gained an additional elite Dou Sheng… at that time, if     

we call her to join us, she will definitely also be of great help.”    

Xiao     

Yan could only bitterly smile after hearing Yao Lao’s words. Cai Lin     

and Xun Er both possessed unusually great potential. One of them was a     

Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, an existence even rarer than the     

Ancient Void Dragon, while the other possessed the legendary Divine     

Bloodline. They would be able to obtain double the results with half the     

effort while training. Xiao Yan appeared ordinary when compared to     

them, but there was ultimately a lot of unfairness in this world. If     

Xiao Yan were to focus on this unfairness, he would not have been able     

to attain his current achievements.    

“Although a Seven-Colored     

Heaven Swallowing Python will be able to advance as long as it has the     

energy to do so, the energy required is extremely frightening. Where can     

we go and find such a terrifying treasure ground?” Xiao Yan softly     

sighed.    

“There is a spot in this world that could help Cai Lin     

temper her physical body. Moreover, she is in possession of an extremely     

rare ‘nine-colored essence stone.’ If she is very lucky, she might even     

be able to evolve into an existence comparable to an Ancient Heaven     

Snake King, a Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python!” Yao Lao narrowed     

his eyes. He smiled slightly as he spoke.    

“Where?” Both Xiao Yan’s and Cai Lin’s eyes swiftly gathered on Yao Lao.    

“The Nine Serene Deep Ground Python tribe’s Nine Serene Spring…”    

Yao     

Lao laughed. His eyes suddenly looked at Xiao Yan as he said, “If you     

wish to subdue the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, this Nine Serene Spring     

is a place you must visit…”
