250: The Heaven-Burning Demon-Suppressing Tower, the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Force!

"The Bloodline has been removed." Lu Yuan casually sealed away the clump of evil blood and said calmly, "However, judging by his deeply ingrained devilish nature, I'm afraid he won't settle for being a Mortal either."

Qin Mengyao looked at Xiao Fan lying on the ground like a dead dog and sighed deeply, "Husband, lock him up in the 'Flaming Heaven Demon-Suppressing Tower'.

The World Cleansing Golden Flame is there; perhaps it can cleanse the devilish nature in his heart and help him find his way back."

"The Flaming Heaven Demon-Suppressing Tower? That's fine too." Lu Yuan nodded in agreement... The Flaming Heaven Demon-Suppressing Tower was a crucial location of the Qin Family, specifically used to imprison and suppress those heinous Devil Heads.

Within the tower, an exotic flame known as the 'World Cleansing Golden Flame' burned perpetually, capable of not only incinerating the Physical Body but also purifying the demonic thoughts within the Divine Soul.

Xiao Fan was thrown into a dark, damp dungeon cell like trash.

The surroundings were black stone walls carved with runes, and the air was thick with suffocating heat and oppressive pressure.

"Heh... So this is my fate?"

Xiao Fan lay on the ground, his eyes vacant as he stared at the tower ceiling, a self-mocking and despairing curve forming at the corner of his mouth: "A cripple... a prisoner..."

He hated. He hated Lu Yuan's cruelty, his mother's heartlessness, and most of all, his own incompetence.

"I can't accept this... I truly can't accept this!"

He roared inwardly. That resentment, nourished by despair, not only did not dissipate but grew increasingly dense, spreading wildly like a poisonous weed... Qin Family, guest room.

Lu Yuan sat cross-legged, his expression serene.

He felt not an ounce of pity for Xiao Fan's plight.

Son of Destiny? That was in the past.

The current Xiao Fan was merely a tool for him to farm treasure chests.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the hour of Zi (11 PM - 1 AM).

[Ding, the Daily Intelligence has been refreshed.]

Three new pieces of intelligence appeared.

[Golden Intelligence: At the hour of Chou (1 AM - 3 AM) today, Xiao Fan will encounter a peerless old devil named 'Scarlet Flame', who only has a remnant soul left, in the dungeon of the Flaming Heaven Demon-Suppressing Tower.

Scarlet Flame was once a generation's Devil Venerable in life. He suffered Qi Deviation while Cultivating a fragment of a supreme Body Refining technique called the 'Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength' and was suppressed by the Qin Family.

After long-term refinement by the World Cleansing Golden Flame, his devilish nature was completely eradicated, leaving only a pure Divine Soul.

He took a fancy to Xiao Fan's body, which, despite losing its Bloodline, still had a well-preserved foundation, intending to Possess it to Rebirth and Cultivate that divine technique.

However, during the Possession process, a wisp of Nine Netherworld Dark Flame remaining deep within Xiao Fan's Sea of Consciousness will automatically protect its Revered Master, freezing Scarlet Flame's remnant soul.

Xiao Fan will seize the Opportunity to counter-kill him, read his memories, and obtain the Legacy of the fragment of the 'Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength'.]

[Purple Intelligence: After obtaining the 'Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength', Xiao Fan will use his own body as a furnace to reshape his Physical Body, causing his power to skyrocket.

He will become fearless of the suppression from the Devilish Qi and the World Cleansing Golden Flame within the tower, fighting his way up to the ninth floor, subduing and devouring the 'World Cleansing Golden Flame', refining it into his Life-bound Fire.]

[Blue Intelligence: Xiao Fan will completely fall into the Demonic Path, no longer concerned with human ethics or bottom lines.

He will feed on the flesh and blood of other Devil Heads imprisoned in the tower, using them as nourishment for Cultivating the 'Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength'.

After devouring a large amount of demonic blood, his strength will advance by leaps and bounds in a short period, returning to its Peak or even surpassing it.]

After reading the intelligence, a playful, cold smile curled at the corner of Lu Yuan's mouth.

"Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength? World Cleansing Golden Flame?"

"This Xiao Fan truly lives up to being a Son of Destiny. Even crippled like this, he can still encounter such a fortuitous Opportunity, but..."

Lu Yuan stood up, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "Since I know about it now, then this Opportunity will still belong to the Lu family."

...The hour of Chou (1 AM - 3 AM).

Inside the Flaming Heaven Demon-Suppressing Tower, it was deathly silent, with only the occasionally flickering firelight casting grotesque shadows.

Xiao Fan huddled in a corner, his consciousness somewhat hazy.

Just then, an extremely faint yet utterly seductive voice sounded in his mind.

"Hehehe... What a fine Physical Body vessel.

Although the Sacred Body Bloodline is gone, these bones, sinews, skin, and membranes have been tempered a thousand times, making them the perfect container for this old man's divine technique."

Xiao Fan's eyes snapped open as he warily looked around: "Who?! Who's speaking?!"

"Little brat, don't be afraid. This old man is here to give you a great Opportunity."

From the shadows of the dungeon, a cluster of ghostly green will-o'-the-wisp slowly floated out, transforming into an aged, illusory human face.

It was the remnant soul of Scarlet Flame!

He stared greedily at Xiao Fan, as if looking at a peerless treasure: "If you want revenge, if you want to regain your power, then hand your body over to this old man.

I'll lead you to kill our way out and trample all those who have humiliated you underfoot!"

"Give me power?" A flicker of desire flashed in Xiao Fan's eyes, but it was immediately replaced by a cold sneer: "If you want to Possess me, just say it directly. No need to beat around the bush!"

"Hmph, refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit! Since you won't cooperate, this old man will take it himself!"

Scarlet Flame's remnant soul wasted no more words, transforming into a streak of green light that shot straight towards the center of Xiao Fan's brow.

Xiao Fan wanted to dodge, but his body was currently at its weakest point, utterly unable to move. He could only watch helplessly as that green light drilled into his Sea of Consciousness.

"It's over..."

Xiao Fan closed his eyes in despair.

However, the expected excruciating pain and fading consciousness did not occur.

The moment Scarlet Flame's remnant soul rushed into the Sea of Consciousness, an extremely Yin-cold, pitch-black flame suddenly shot out from its depths—it was a wisp of Origin flame seed left behind by his Revered Master, Venerable Yao: the Nine Netherworld Dark Flame!

"Sizzle!"

The Nine Netherworld Dark Flame specialized in countering Souls, instantly enveloping and freezing Scarlet Flame's remnant soul.

"Ah! What kind of ghostly thing is this?! Nine Netherworld Dark Flame?! How do you have something like this?!" Scarlet Flame screamed in terror, struggling desperately, but to no avail.

Xiao Fan was stunned for a moment, then ecstatic.

Heaven never Seals off all exits!

"Old thing, trying to Possess me? Go to hell!"

A crazed light flickered in Xiao Fan's eyes as he prepared to mobilize his faint trace of Mental Energy to devour Scarlet Flame's remnant soul and seize his memories.

At this critical juncture.

"What evil spirit dares to harm my son's life?"

A majestic and icy voice, like thunder, exploded within the dungeon.

"Boom!"

The supposedly indestructible dungeon door instantly turned to dust.

Lu Yuan, clad in white robes, his entire body shrouded in sacred Chaos radiance, stepped inside.

In that instant, all the Devilish Qi and Yin evil aura within the dungeon seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, frantically scattering.

"Lu Yuan?!"

Seeing the newcomer, Xiao Fan felt not a shred of joy at being rescued. Instead, an unprecedented sense of loss and fear surged within him.

Why?

Why does this Devil Head always appear right on time whenever I have a fortuitous encounter?!

That feeling of being choked by fate was almost enough to make him collapse.

Meanwhile, Scarlet Flame's remnant soul, frozen within Xiao Fan's Sea of Consciousness, sensing the vast, abyssal, and utterly terrifying aura emanating from Lu Yuan, was so frightened his Soul-body was about to disintegrate.

"Wha... what kind of person is this? His aura is actually a hundred times more terrifying than that Qin Family Old Ancestor?! This kid's father is this strong?!"

Scarlet Flame felt like crying but had no tears.

If he had known Xiao Fan had such a ferocious father, he wouldn't have dared to attempt Possession even if given a hundred extra guts!
