71: Conquer the fallen heart inflammation!

After setting up the Seal, Gu Fei slowly walked into the Tower under everyone's gaze.

Although the Heart Flame inside the Tower had formed within him, it didn't cause him any impact.

The Grand Elder of the Inner Academy, Su Qian, followed behind Gu Fei, a hint of worry still in his eyes.

Su Qian felt worried, Emotion Value +30.

Next, Gu Fei walked down floor by floor, with only Su Qian following him, their footsteps echoing in the empty Tower.

Soon, the two arrived at the center of the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower's last floor.

Here, like the previous floors, there was a black hole connecting downwards.

And this black hole on the last floor connected to the true bottom of the Tower.

Above this black hole, there was a clear spatial fluctuation. It was precisely because of this Seal that the Fallen Heart Flame was suppressed.

"Break!"

Gu Fei lightly shouted, raising his arm. A strange beam of light shot straight from his fingertip, striking the spatial Seal.

The air trembled violently for a moment. As the smoke and dust dispersed, the Seal had already been broken.

This Seal, originally indestructible and capable of withstanding the Fallen Heart Flame's Impact for many years, was now easily broken by Gu Fei.

Su Qian felt surprised, Emotion Value +30.

Su Qian's understanding of Gu Fei's strength was once again refreshed.

As the Seal broke, the sensation of the Heart Flame instantly grew much stronger than before.

The air temperature rapidly rose, becoming much hotter.

Visibly, the air gradually began to distort.

Immediately after, the originally peaceful energy here suddenly, like boiling water, began to emit faint, muffled sounds.

Su Qian felt doubtful, Emotion Value +30.

Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the bottom of the Tower, doubt flashed in Su Qian's eyes again.

He wasn't doubting Gu Fei's strength, but rather that the Fallen Heart Flame was simply too terrifying.

"Senior, are you truly confident in subduing the Fallen Heart Flame?"

"If this thing is released, with its hatred for our Inner Academy over so many years, it will destroy our Inner Academy in an instant."

Su Qian frowned, asking very seriously.

Although things had come to this, it was still not too late for them to leave now.

With Gu Fei's strength, resealing this place could also hold for a long time.

However, having already come this far, how could Gu Fei be willing to retreat out of fear?

"What's so difficult about subduing a mere Fallen Heart Flame? Just watch."

Gu Fei smiled noncommittally, his tone sounding quite arrogant, yet Su Qian heard full confidence in it.

That kind of confidence stemmed from his strength.

Immediately, Gu Fei did not linger, directly flashing into the black hole.

Su Qian felt worried, Emotion Value +30.

After Gu Fei descended for some distance, a different scene finally appeared in the bottomless depths of the black hole.

It was an entire ocean of lava.

However, the color of the lava here, compared to ordinary lava, appeared exceptionally dark red, as if countless amounts of fresh blood had been mixed into it, giving the entire lava sea a strange color.

Gu Fei's figure floated above the lava sea, his gaze suddenly lingering on a certain spot.

There, an extremely violent and vast energy was slowly surging from beneath the lava.

And as this violent energy surged, the tranquility in the lava world was also abruptly shattered.

A fierce wind, coming from who knows where, howled over the lava, stirring it up into fiery waves ten zhang high, which then crashed down heavily.

The roar at that instant was like a mountain collapsing and the earth rending!

"Fallen Heart Flame, come out!"

Although this commotion was immense, it was nothing to Gu Fei.

His expression was very calm as he called out to the depths below.

"Pfft!"

As Gu Fei's voice fell, the calm surface of the lava suddenly churned with a surge of waves.

As lava shot out, a fire python, whose full body was invisible, almost transparent, with a head a full zhang in size, and its entire body permeated with an invisible flame, burst through the lava, bringing with it a vast energy that caused space itself to tremble, appearing before Gu Fei's eyes.

"Jie!"

Breaking out of the lava, the colossal, endlessly long transparent fire python, as if imprisoned for a thousand years, raised its massive head.

Sharp sonic waves rapidly spread out, and with the diffusion of those sonic waves, the lava world seemed to have countless bombs thrown into it, with continuous low rumbling sounds, lava erupting, and flames spewing everywhere.

After an almost frenzied outburst, the enormous transparent fire python, as if sensing the gaze from above, suddenly raised its huge head, its triangular pupils, imbued with invisible flames, staring fixedly at the young figure standing above the sea.

"Kill me, and you can leave this place!"

Looking at the invisible fire python's eyes, Gu Fei smiled, saying lightly.

The Fallen Heart Flame felt angry, Emotion Value +20.

Having been suppressed here for many years, the Fallen Heart Flame had already developed some intelligence, and it resented all humans in its heart.

It was humans who had imprisoned it here!

It angrily stared at this ignorant youth who dared to provoke it.

It decided to keep Gu Fei under this lava forever.

"Jie!"

The next moment, a pillar of fire shot out from the invisible fire python's massive head.

Gu Fei's figure moved rapidly, approaching the invisible fire python, and at the same time, he also launched a huge pillar of fire from his palm, meeting the invisible fire python's attack.

As the two energies collided, the enormous Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower above trembled significantly from the explosion.

"Has it begun?"

Outside, many students and Elders sensed the fluctuation.

The fluctuation was too terrifying, making many people turn pale.

Numerous Elders simultaneously raised their hands, and a complete barrier protected all the Inner Academy students.

At the bottom of the Tower, above the lava sea.

After one clash, Gu Fei's breathing wasn't even disturbed, clearly holding the advantage.

He didn't use any words to provoke the Fallen Heart Flame, but rather, flames ignited in his eyes.

If it wanted to fight, then so be it!

This invisible fire python was indeed troublesome, but it was nothing to him.

Since he couldn't find it, he would let his attacks cover every corner, and see how it could hide then!

Overwhelming Dou Qi blasted towards the ground, the lava exploded, spewing red flames, and occasionally, screams could be heard.

This absolute overwhelming advantage allowed Gu Fei to effortlessly, in the end, pull out the fire spirit of the invisible fire python and suppress it.

The fire spirit let out a wail, and in Gu Fei's hand, it finally stopped struggling.

The lava beneath the ground fell into silence.

This was very quick, only about one or two minutes, and the invisible fire python was suppressed.

Afterward, Gu Fei began to refine the Fallen Heart Flame.

The scorching flames burned fiercely, yet Gu Fei refined them with ease.

The flames gradually merged into his body, without a ripple.

Now, Gu Fei had already refined two types of abnormal flames, and the power of this final Fusion of abnormal flames was inherently stronger than the Fallen Heart Flame, so this refinement was not very difficult.

After refining the Fallen Heart Flame, Gu Fei opened his eyes, his gaze continuing towards the lava sea.

He had said before that he would give the Inner Academy some compensation.

Therefore, he decided to go down into the lava sea and retrieve the young Fallen Heart Flame from beside Venerable Skyfire's corpse, as described in the original novel, to give to the Inner Academy.

This way, the Inner Academy would not gradually lose its unique characteristics due to the absence of the Fallen Heart Flame; instead, it would become even better.

Because the previous Fallen Heart Flame was extremely violent, erupting from time to time, and its resentful emotions made it want to destroy the entire Inner Academy.

However, the young Fallen Heart Flame, having been cared for and nurtured by the Inner Academy since it was small, would, over time, protect the Inner Academy as if it were its home.
