Amid the deafening sounds of impact, the purple-black pillar of fire barely lasted for an instant before it crumbled apart. The dimmed red pillar of fire then cut through space once again, crashing heavily onto the massive body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame.

”Boom! Boom!”

As the pillar continuously exploded, the latter let out a series of agonized roars.

”Despicable human! I’ll fight you to the death!”

The searing pain turned the eyes of the Three Thousand Burning Flame blood-red, and its furious roar echoed like thunder across the space. In the next instant, the purple-black flames covering its enormous body suddenly went berserk.

Moments later, they transformed into countless smaller purple-black fire dragons that charged fiercely toward Lin Feng with savage roars. Lin Feng’s black eyes flickered as he scanned the swarm of seemingly terrifying fire dragons.

Then, he slowly raised his hand and made a gripping motion. In that instant, a long whip of dark-red flame, far more violent and scorching than the Three Thousand Burning Flame itself, appeared out of thin air in the sky.

With a swing of his arm, the hundred-zhang-long flame whip lashed out violently toward the charging dragons.

”Boom! Boom! Boom!”

A series of explosions erupted one after another, their echoes rumbling across the heavens for a long time.

After dealing with the fire dragons, the corners of Lin Feng’s mouth curled into a faint smile as he gently lifted his palm. At the center of his palm, the Dragon Seal suddenly erupted with blinding golden light.

The golden radiance rose within this soul space like a sun slowly ascending into the sky. The purple-black sea of fire surrounding him trembled violently under the illumination of that golden glow. The Three Thousand Burning Flame suddenly felt its movements becoming sluggish.

At the same time, the golden dragon-shaped imprint on its forehead flared even brighter.

”Damn it! The suppression from this thing is too strong! It’s all that old man’s fault for planting this blasted thing on me back then. Otherwise, how could I lose to a mere One-Star Dou Zun?! I refuse to accept this! I don’t accept it!”

In a frenzy, the Three Thousand Burning Flame roared furiously as it felt its body losing control. Its enraged cries shook the surrounding space, causing countless cracks to spread like spiderwebs.

Yet no matter how violently it struggled, it could not change its doomed fate. Under the golden radiance of the Dragon Seal, its colossal form began to shrink gradually. The dragon-like appearance slowly faded, reverting back toward the shape of its true fiery essence.

While Lin Feng was fully focused on subduing the Three Thousand Burning Flame, outside, Xiao Yan was rapidly approaching his physical body.

”Lin Feng, since you want to claim the Three Thousand Burning Flame, then you can stay here forever in the Star Region!”

Seeing the distance between himself and Lin Feng closing rapidly, Xiao Yan’s lips curved into a faint smile.

Once he got close enough, he planned to exchange a few moves with Eighth Tian Zun nearby and then find an opportunity to lure one of their Dou Techniques to strike Lin Feng’s body instead.

That way, his powerful enemy would fall here in the Star Region today. Moreover, Xiao Yan himself could remain largely uninvolved. Most importantly, he could seize this chance to take the Heavenly Flame from Lin Feng.

In this way, he could stay out of blame, eliminate his greatest rival, and even obtain a new Heavenly Flame. It was such a perfect opportunity—there was no way he would let it slip away.

”Xiao Yan, you’re seeking death!”

Just as Xiao Yan entered within ten li of Lin Feng, a cold and furious voice suddenly rang out across the heavens.

Hearing the sound, Xiao Yan turned his head, only to see Xiao Yixian glaring at him, her beautiful face filled with killing intent.

In the next instant, Xiao Yixian waved her jade-like hand, releasing a vast cloud of purple-gray poison mist, temporarily forcing Seventh Tian Zun to retreat.

”Fleeting Light Shadow Step: Transforming Light!”

She then abandoned her opponent, and her alluring figure turned into a streak of faint light that disappeared before the eyes of Seventh Tian Zun in an instant.

”So fast!”

Seeing Xiao Yixian vanish from sight, Seventh Tian Zun’ expressions were filled with astonishment.

He had been fighting that white-clothed woman for so long—if Xiao Yan hadn’t angered her earlier, he might never have known she had such a move. Of course, what he didn’t know was that during their entire battle, Xiao Yixian hadn’t even been fighting seriously.

If it weren’t for the fact that her man was a disciple of the Pill Tower, she probably wouldn’t have bothered to stay here and stall Seventh Tian Zun at all. She would’ve already gone to her husband’s side to protect him and prevent anyone else from launching a sneak attack.

”Damn it! Why is this woman so fast?”

As for Xiao Yan, when he sensed Xiao Yixian’s aura suddenly vanish completely from his soul perception, a terrified curse escaped his lips.

Right now, just dealing with one Eighth Tian Zun had already left him in a miserable state. If that white-clothed woman came for him too, with only his One-Star Dou Zun strength, there was no way he could withstand the combined assault of two peak Eight-Star Dou Zuns.

”Damn it all! Is the heavens themselves against me?! Why is it that every time I try to screw over Lin Feng, something unexpected always happens!”

Seeing Eighth Tian Zun behind him drawing closer and closer, Xiao Yan’s composure finally began to crack, and he cursed aloud in frustration.

Here in the Star Region, he had nowhere left to go—no way up to the heavens, and no way down to the earth. Even if he wanted to escape, where could he possibly run?!

But just as Xiao Yan frantically tried to think of a way to flee, the scene before his eyes suddenly shifted.

”Crack!”

The next instant, a powerful force struck him head-on.

”Pff!”

With the crisp sound of bones breaking, Xiao Yan spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with bits of his organs, his body flying backward uncontrollably.

Eighth Tian Zun behind him, seeing his target being knocked back toward him, instantly revealed a grin and quickly stretched out his hand to grab Xiao Yan.

Though that brat’s strength wasn’t impressive, the Hall Master had said that whoever managed to capture him alive would be heavily rewarded.

While serving the Hall of Souls earned him plenty of scorn from outsiders, within the Hall itself, those who achieved merit were rewarded handsomely.

From past experience, since the Hall Master himself had given this order, if he could bring Xiao Yan back alive, then after spending all the rewards, his strength would likely rise from Eight-Star Dou Zun to Two-Change—or even Three-Change Dou Zun!

At that thought, greed flashed in the eyes of Eighth Tian Zun as he looked at Xiao Yan.

Meanwhile, in the distance, Old Mu Gu was suppressing the Old Qing Hua with full strength while keeping a close eye on Xiao Yan’s side of the battlefield.

When he saw Xiao Yan being sent flying uncontrollably by that white-clothed woman’s palm strike straight toward Eighth Tian Zun’s confinement area, a surge of joy instantly filled his face.

After all, they had already planned it out beforehand—Seventh Tian Zun would seize the Three Thousand Burning Flame, Eighth Tian Zun would capture Xiao Yan, and the souls within the Star Region would belong to Ninth Tian Zun.

As for him, he was allowed to freely choose something from the spoils of the others afterward. Among those spoils, of course, was the true reason he had come—the Flame Mantra and the Heavenly Flame in Xiao Yan’s possession!

Thinking of this, Old Mu Gu’s heart trembled with excitement. ”After all these years of planning and risking my life time and again, I can finally claim the Flame Mantra and the Heavenly Flame!”

”Boom!”

But just as Old Mu Gu was lost in his fantasies, an immensely vast and overwhelming force suddenly tore through the void, smashing straight into Eighth Tian Zun who was about to grab Xiao Yan.
