As he spoke, Xiao Yan gently brushed the storage ring on his finger and took out a scroll from within. However, once the scroll appeared, he immediately realized that Lin Feng had placed a special seal on it.
Without at least a Dou Zun's strength, it would be impossible to open.
"Break!"
Staring at the scroll, Xiao Yan suddenly shouted sharply. The Heavenly Flame within his body surged through his palm and burned toward the seal covering the scroll.
Chi chi~
Under the scorching of the golden Heavenly Flame, the seal rapidly dissolved. In just a brief moment, it was burned away completely.
Yao Chen, seeing Xiao Yan break the seal, curiously leaned closer. He watched as Xiao Yan slowly unfurled the scroll.
"Two moons appear at once to fill the sky.
Nine planets form at grand array on high.
The all engulfing tide gives birth.
Demonic flame descends again to earth."
But after the scroll was fully opened, the master and disciple discovered that the entire scroll contained only this single sentence carved in the center.
Elsewhere, aside from a note in the corner reminding the reader to confirm authenticity through ancient records, there was absolutely nothing else written.
"What does this even mean? Don't tell me that bastard Lin Feng is playing tricks on us and didn't give us the real information?!"
Staring at the cryptic sentence, Xiao Yan—already on edge from the failed operation—completely snapped at this moment.
His fingers clenched uncontrollably around the scroll's wooden shaft, crushing it into uneven fragments. To think he worked so hard for so long, only to get something seemingly useless.
Xiao Yan's face instantly turned dark as iron. He practically wanted to run over and punch Lin Feng's face a few times.
"Xiao Yanzi, don't be hasty. This sentence actually does tell us something."
Seeing Xiao Yan losing control of his emotions, Yao Chen quickly opened his mouth. Hearing this, Xiao Yan frowned slightly, still unable to understand the meaning hidden within the words.
He had no choice but to turn toward his Master and ask, "Master, what does it mean?"
Sensing Xiao Yan's confusion, Yao Lao explained, "Two moons appear at once to fill the sky and nine planets form at grand array on high refers to a very rare celestial phenomenon."
"This phenomenon only appears once every thousand years. As for the all engulfing tide gives birth, those are heavenly anomalies triggered by such a phenomenon—you should understand that part."
"Master, what about the last sentence? What demonic flame does it refer to?"
Seeing that his Master clearly understood more, Xiao Yan's expression eased significantly. He quickly leaned in, eager to press further. At this moment, he desperately wanted to know what origin this Heavenly Flame possessed.
Hearing the question, Yao Chen exhaled deeply. A fiery, unconcealable excitement surged across his face, mixed with a trace of disbelief.
"The last sentence… if my guess is correct, the flame it refers to should be the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame."
"The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame?!"
Xiao Yan nearly bit his own tongue upon hearing the words. Even though his knowledge wasn't as vast as Yao Chen's, he had still heard of this name—one of the most renowned Heavenly Flames in the entire Dou Qi Continent.
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was a milky white flame, turning a deep pink under high intensity, possessing the terrifying ability to purify all things.
It was said that anything touched by even the slightest trace of this flame would instantly be purified into nothingness.
Its power could even be triggered by a person's emotions, allowing it to enter one's body and purify flesh, soul, and Dou Qi alike into emptiness—its destructive ability was unimaginably terrifying.
But because this type of Heavenly Flame was exceedingly rare on the Dou Qi Continent—so rare that even the world itself could not produce two of them simultaneously— No one currently knew where it existed.
After running through everything he remembered about this Heavenly Flame, Xiao Yan stared at his Master with shock and disbelief, his voice cracking slightly.
"Don't tell me… the demonic flame mentioned in the scroll is truly the third-ranked Heavenly Flame— the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame?!"
"If nothing unexpected happens, then yes, it should be that Heavenly Flame. After all, I've roamed the Dou Qi Continent for so many years, yet I've never once heard of another flame among the top six on the Heavenly Flame Ranking being referred to as 'Demonic Flame'. It can't possibly be the mysterious, unfathomable number one flame on the ranking, right?"
Seeing Xiao Yan's disbelief, Yao Chen shrugged, indicating that this was the only conclusion he could come up with.
"Didn't expect that Lin Feng fellow to give me such a huge surprise."
Thinking of the ancient records describing the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, Xiao Yan's eyes bulged in excitement. At this moment, he couldn't control his emotions at all.
Yao Chen glanced at the corner of the scroll and continued, "Doesn't it also say here that if you doubt the information, you can consult ancient texts to verify it?"
"Judging from that, the kid shouldn't be lying. It's likely that the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame did appear before, but in the end, no one managed to subdue it."
Hearing this speculation, Xiao Yan's earlier excitement faded a little. His brows tightened.
"Two moons appear at once to fill the sky and nine planets form at grand array on high is a celestial phenomenon that only appears once every thousand years."
"If that's the case, doesn't that mean the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame appeared a thousand years ago, yet no one succeeded in subduing it?"
At that thought, a heavy feeling rose in his heart.
After all, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame ranked third on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, and its destructive power was nothing short of world-shaking. If such a thing descended, the uproar it caused should have been tremendous.
By all logic, it should have drawn countless Dou Zun and even Dou Sheng experts. Yet now, there was not a single surviving piece of concrete information about the flame. Clearly, the powerhouses who tried back then had all returned in failure.
If even they failed, could he… truly have a chance?
"Damn it, that brat really is cunning. He knew his chance of successfully subduing the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was extremely low, so he took this information and used it for a trade."
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan cursed Lin Feng viciously.
Yao Chen rolled his eyes and scolded lightly, "Isn't that obvious? If that kid had any real confidence, why would he trade this information away?"
"Doesn't he have a whole group of beauties following him around? He could've just sent one of them to absorb the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame for him, wouldn't that be great?"
"Besides, a Heavenly Flame isn't some one-time-use item. It can be passed down through generations. Compared to that, the information he traded you is worth ten thousand times less."
"Uh… fine, I guess."
Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly. Then he looked at his Master and asked, "Master, if I want to attempt absorbing the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, what do I need to prepare first?"
Even though he knew that attempting to absorb the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was extremely dangerous and that the odds of success were terrifyingly low…
He had just managed to obtain information about a Heavenly Flame that was unique in the world. No matter what, he didn't want to give up so easily. At the very least, he had to try—otherwise, he wouldn't be able to accept it.
