Chapter 139: Start to conquer!
In the study room at the top of the ancient tower, Xiao Yun looked at the man in green in front of him with disbelief. At this moment, he really suspected that his ears were broken.

These days, everyone is eager to give away strange fires, right?

Or the Bahuang Pomieyan, which is ranked sixth on the Strange Fire List. You said you would give it away?!
Although this strange fire is not unique and does not have the uniqueness of the top three on the strange fire list, this is the extremely domineering Eight Desolate Destruction Flame!
In the original novel, it only appeared briefly in the Yan Clan, but that doesn’t mean it’s weak! If we only look at the destructive power of the strange fire, it can catch up with the fourth-ranked Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame!
“…” Xiao Yun’s mood was complicated at the moment. It was impossible for him to say that he did not want this strange fire, but he did not believe in good things that would fall from the sky.

“What? You don’t want it?” After looking at Xiao Yun who had been silent for a long time, Black Saint said with a half-smile: “This strange fire is not like the Fallen Heart Flame. Even if you become a Dou Sheng, it can still provide you with powerful assistance.”

Xiao Yun swallowed hard, his voice a little hoarse, and said slowly: “Senior Black Saint, please stop teasing me. I do want it, but I don’t dare to ask for it.”

“Who said I was teasing you?” Black Saint smiled and said calmly, “If I didn’t want to give it to you, why would I bring you here?”

“Not only the Eight Desolate Destruction Flame, but also the books and scrolls here, I am willing to give them all to you.”

Listening to Black Saint’s words, Xiao Yun couldn’t stop the cold sweat from flowing down his forehead. Is this kind of plot, which is like an old man transmitting his life’s skills, something that someone like him can encounter?
Could it be that this old man wants to possess my body?! By the way, is there possession in Douqi Continent? Never mind! I’ll run first!

Thoughts flashed through his mind, green lightning flashed suddenly on his body, and a token appeared on his palm at the same time. It was the life-saving talisman that Hei Qing had left for him.

According to Hei Qing, as long as he is still in Zhongzhou, the crushing of the token will definitely be noticed by him. Although he is now in a small world, it should… still be Zhongzhou, right?

“Oh!”

With a sudden squeeze of his right hand, the token shattered instantly. At the same time, Xiao Yun turned into a streak of green lightning and rushed towards the exit of the ancient tower.

“Hey, the little guy is really cautious!” Seeing Xiao Yun’s series of actions, Hei Sheng did not stop him. He still lay on the chair, watching his performance quietly.

“Oh!”

A muffled sound was heard, and Xiao Yun, maintaining the form of green thunder, crashed directly into a layer of space barrier that had appeared at some point.

“Damn it! It seems I’m really in trouble this time!” Xiao Yun bumped into it a few more times in disbelief, but found that the space barrier was still motionless, but his head was almost bumped into.

“This is the ancient tower that I built. Do you think there are no other means?” Black Saint smiled at Xiao Yun, who seemed to have lost his dream, and continued, “I have told you everything. Everything I said is true!”

“Senior! I have four Dou Zun elders, and I also have a close relationship with the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. If I were to disappear, it would definitely cause trouble for you, senior!”

“I think you are just a soul, right? As long as you promise not to hurt me, I am willing to use the method of resurrection to help you live again in the world!” Xiao Yun did not believe a word of what the Black Saint said. Since he could not escape, he could only show his trump card.

“Grand Void Ancient Dragon? The method of resurrection? It seems that you have a good fortune. No wonder you can achieve such success at such a young age.” In response to Xiao Yun’s threat, Black Saint just smiled slightly, then stood up from the recliner and said with a smile: “The token you crushed just now was to notify the Grand Void Ancient Dragon, right? I sensed a trace of ancient dragon’s breath from it, but my space is extremely difficult to find. Even the Grand Void Ancient Dragon would find it difficult to enter.”

“As for the resurrection method you mentioned, it should only be able to revive the souls of those who died accidentally. It will not work for someone like me who died due to a fatal death.”

“Then what does senior need? I will definitely satisfy you!” Seeing that Black Saint was not moved by any persuasion, Xiao Yun lost his temper.

“I have already said that you only need to inherit these.” Black Saint smiled slightly, helped Xiao Yun up, and said slowly: “There is only one condition, you must absorb all the energy in Xiao Ba’s body, and you must treat it well.”

“Ah?” Looking at the Black Saint in front of him who seemed to be no longer joking, Xiao Yun suddenly felt that this world was too crazy.

Is this the protagonist’s halo? Is there anyone rushing to give the strange fire? Looking at the appearance of Black Saint, it is obvious that he is raising the Eight Desolations Destruction Flame like his son!
“When I broke through to Dou Zun, Xiao Ba followed me. At that time, he was just a small flame. Hundreds of years have passed, and now he has grown to maturity. It’s a pity that I don’t have enough talent. I have wasted my whole life and it is difficult for me to break through to the Dou Sheng realm. Otherwise, this good thing would not be your turn.”

“This relic is not only my grave, but also the place where Xiao Ba will be chosen as a new master. Even though he is now as powerful as a Dou Zun, he will still be forcibly subdued by other masters if he goes out.”

“Why don’t I choose a new master for him? That way, I can feel more at ease. Originally, I wanted to find a strong and trustworthy person among the sixteen Dou Zun to inherit the throne, but I didn’t expect that I would attract a young eighth-grade alchemist.”

“Senior, did you notice this kid in the mountains?”

Black Saint nodded and said calmly: “Yes, I discovered you at that time and observed you for a few days before choosing you.”

“You don’t have to disbelieve me. In fact, the real Black Saint has already died completely, and I am just an illusion of his memory.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Black Saint suddenly stretched out his finger and touched the center of Xiao Yun’s eyebrows. Immediately, a huge stream of information poured into his mind.

Relying on his powerful soul, Xiao Yun quickly sorted out this information. After a while, he finally absorbed all the information. At the same time, he also obtained the complete inheritance of Hei Sheng, the Half-Step Fighting Saint!
At this moment, Xiao Yun really began to believe what Black Saint said. After all, if they really wanted to do something bad to him, there was no need to make it so realistic and even pass on the Half-Saint legacy to him.

“So, when you killed Dou Zun before…”

“I’m just borrowing the formation.” Black Saint took over the conversation and continued, “This space was once the Black Saint’s lair. He spent half his life refining the entire mountain into a formation. And I am the body of this formation. By borrowing the formation, my strength can also reach that of a half-step Dou Sheng!”

“So, you can rest assured now. I will not do anything harmful to you. All of this is just to fulfill my last wish.”

“Okay, after all I’ve said, you should believe me, right? Are you willing to inherit Xiao Ba now?”

Xiao Yun nodded slightly, bowed respectfully to Black Saint, and said, “Boy, I am willing. There is still a strange fire in my body.”

Different fires cannot be compatible. This is common sense that every alchemist knows. Although the power of the Eight Desolate Destruction Flame far exceeds that of the Fallen Heart Flame, if it is absorbed by force, the battlefield where the former devours the latter is in Xiao Yun’s body! If there is even a slight mistake, he will end up seriously injured and his ancestors will be buried alive.

“It’s okay. You can take out its original heart fire. Although it will be a little damaged, you can absorb Xiao Ba and let him replenish it for you.” Black Saint waved his hand. These were nothing to him. Hearing this, Xiao Yun’s mouth twitched. What do you mean by a little damage? You didn’t even mention the pain?
“Huh!” With a thought, the invisible little snake that was originally curled up in the Na Ling was forcibly summoned out. Looking at the Fallen Heart Flame, Xiao Yun gritted his teeth.

Suddenly, the invisible little snake began to shake violently. After a while, Xiao Yun’s face turned extremely pale, and the connection between the Fallen Heart Flame and his soul was completely severed by him.

The Fallen Heart Flame, which lost Xiao Yun’s control, expanded instantly and turned into an invisible fire python, coiling in the air.

“What are you going to do with this strange fire? Or let Xiao Ba swallow it?” Seeing the actions of the Fallen Heart Flame, Black Saint said with a smile.

“Hiss!” The fire python suddenly made a sharp hissing sound. When it was absorbed by Xiao Yun, its intelligence was not erased, so it could understand the words of the Black Saint. After hearing that the extremely powerful human in front of it was going to throw itself to the terrifying dragon below, it immediately became anxious.

“Forget it. It was actually passed down to me by an elder. Let’s return it to its original owner now.” Xiao Yun shook his head and continued, “Senior, do you have anything here to temporarily store it?”

“What a trouble! I might as well feed it to Xiao Ba directly.” Black Saint curled his lips, then waved his hand. There was a burst of ping-pong sounds, as if something was rushing towards him. The next moment, a pitch-black stone cage flew into his hand.

Xiao Yun looked at it carefully and found that the material of the gabion seemed to be the same stone as the stone slab he had walked on before.

“Just take it in temporarily. It is made of the Heavenly Evil Black Stone. Even Xiao Ba’s flames cannot harm it in the slightest.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yun hurriedly took the stone cage, opened it, and waved his hand. The Fallen Heart Flame obediently crawled inside without making any noise at all.

“Is it okay to leave it here?”

“It’s okay as long as I’m watching.” Black Saint casually placed the stone cage in a corner of the study, turned his head to look at Xiao Yun, and said, “Let’s go downstairs.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked out of the study first. Xiao Yun behind him quickly followed and came to the bottom of the ancient tower again.

“Roar!”

Looking at the arrival of the Black Saint, Bahuang Pomieyan seemed very excited and raised his head and let out a dragon roar.

“Xiao Ba, he will be your new master from now on.” Black Saint slowly stepped forward, stroked the black dragon with his palm, and said slowly: “For so many years, you have been with me alone. I am here now.”

“Roar!” Upon hearing the words of the Black Saint, a very human reluctance appeared in the eyes of the black dragon. Then it stared at Xiao Yun fiercely and let out an angry roar.

Don’t blame me, brother. I even gave up the little snake for you.

Seeing the Black Dragon’s unfriendly look, Xiao Yun could only smile awkwardly.

“Don’t be sad, Xiao Ba, do you remember what we agreed to do? You don’t belong here. This is just the old man’s grave.” Black Saint gently stroked the dragon, then smiled at Xiao Yun and said, “Come here. Black Saint had severed the soul connection between him and Xiao Ba before he died.”

“So Xiao Ba has always been in a state of being ownerless. Over the years, the soul mark that the Black Saint had placed before has probably dissipated over time. It shouldn’t take much effort for you to subdue him later.”

Afterwards, he took out a pill from somewhere and handed it to Xiao Yun in front of him.

“Your cultivation is still too weak for Xiao Ba. Even if he uses all his strength to retract his power, you will not be able to resist it. This is a seventh-grade peak elixir, the Black Flame Pill, which can help you subdue him.”

“Thank you, Senior.” Xiao Yun took the pill and said with some concern, “Senior, there are still three of my elders in the outside world. If I don’t show up for a long time, please let them know.”

“Don’t worry, I will tell them.”

After getting Black Saint’s affirmation, Xiao Yun let out a light breath, turned his head to look at the black dragon in front of him, and said with a smile: “Big guy, from now on, it will be the two of us who will live together!”

Without waiting for the black dragon to respond, he clenched his fists, sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and stuffed the Black Flame Pill into his mouth.

As soon as the Black Flame Pill entered his body, it turned into cold and icy energy that quickly spread to every part of Xiao Yun’s body. Suddenly, he felt his body was extremely cold, as if he was in an extremely cold place.

The next moment, countless tiny black flames seeped out from the pores of his skin. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yun’s body was directly covered by a layer of black flames. The flames continued to rise, but they emitted a cold breath.

After these flames covered Xiao Yun’s entire body, they began to weave together, with lines of fire connected one by one, from bottom to top, like a big net, tightly wrapped around him. His feet, arms, and even his head were all wrapped in the black net. Just when his mouth was about to be completely covered, Black Saint said in a deep voice:

“Xiao Ba, come in and be a good boy next time.”

“Roar!” The black dragon let out a reluctant roar, but still obediently revealed its original flame. A miniature black dragon flew out of its body and went straight into Xiao Yun’s body before the big net closed its mouth.

“Hmph!” The moment the Eight Desolations Destruction Flame entered his body, the terrifying temperature dispelled the previous cold energy. The feeling of ice and fire made Xiao Yun suffer terribly, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.

The extremely high temperature melted everything, and the black net that was originally attached to the body surface gradually dissipated. The moment the black net dissipated, countless small black flames burst out from the surface of the skin.

Unlike the previous black flame, the flame of the Eight Desolations Destruction Flame emitted a terrifyingly high temperature. From afar, Xiao Yun was completely surrounded by the black flame. Under the high temperature, even the space around him became distorted.

“I hope you can succeed, little guy.” Black Saint looked at the young man who was on fire and murmured in a low voice: “After all, you are the most suitable candidate for Xiao Ba…”
