Battle Through The Heavens: Grand World

5The green-red flame revealed a pure smile like that of a baby. Xiao Yan stood still in a trance as he looked at the harmless smile on the green-red flame. That kind of smile made people feel warm. All the worries in his heart vanished when he saw this smile.    

    

Xiao Yan couldn't help but reach out his hand to touch the green-red flame. The smile on the green-red flame was even more pure and innocent. It took the initiative to approach Xiao Yan and accept his touch.    

    

* Pa! *    

    

Suddenly, the Star Sky Tablet slapped him. The Star Sky Tablet mercilessly hit Xiao Yan's arm, causing him to instantly wake up. The first thing he saw was a huge mouth of ferocious flames in front of him. His five fingers were not far from the mouth.    

    

Xiao Yan was shocked. He hurriedly retracted his hand. This thing could actually confuse his mind. Caught off guard, he almost fell into this fellow's trap.    

    

"The Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame can create an illusion. Although it doesn't cause any harm to the human body, it will cause great damage to the mind. "    

    

The Star Sky Tablet shot a glance at the green-red flame in front of him and said angrily.    

    

"This is the Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame? Didn't you absorb it?"    

    

Xiao Yan was stunned when he heard this. He looked at the fist-sized green-red flame in front of him and said.    

    

"What use do I have for this thing? Besides. . . I've told you before, I'll help you find a few Monarch Flames. Consider this the first one. "    

    

The Star Sky Tablet snorted. Before Xiao Yan could say anything, it said in a deep voice, "However, before you absorb the Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flames, help me do one thing first. "    

    

"What?"    

    

Xiao Yan felt relieved in his heart. Immediately, he spoke without any hesitation. Although this fellow was extremely conceited, he was quite satisfied with what he had agreed to do. He thought that the Star Sky Tablet was just casually mentioning the matter of finding the Monarch Flame. It was unexpected that he had really placed it in his heart.    

    

"That is. . . Give me your body. "    

    

The Star Sky Tablet looked at Xiao Yan and suddenly laughed nastily. It extended its hand with a loud bang. Before the former could even react, the five fingers of the Star Sky Tablet had already pierced into Xiao Yan's chest like a sharp blade.    

    

"Hu!"    

    

He suddenly recovered his senses. Xiao Yan's forehead was full of sweat. In front of him, the blue-red flame was slowly burning like a baby's smile. Beside him, the Star Sky Tablet, who was deep in thought, frowned angrily. He said coldly, "Can you calm down a little? I didn't bring you here to scare you. "    

    

Xiao Yan was stunned for a while. He tried to hold back his throat. He couldn't help but move. Could it be that he had unknowingly been affected by the Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame's illusory realm again?    

    

"The Star Cauldron is the core of this Stone Cauldron. There's still some time left. Try and see if you can open it. "    

    

After a long moment, the Star Sky Tablet opened its mouth and pointed toward the enormous Star Cauldron.    

    

"Open the Star Cauldron. . . "    

    

Xiao Yan, who had regained his senses, let out a bitter laugh. If this was any other time, he would have been eager to open this thing. But now. . .    

    

"It's not far from the Pill Competition. You don't care, but I do. "    

    

Xiao Yan shook his head and said weakly. It had taken him a month and a half to open a Star Luo Stone Cauldron, but now he had to open the Star Cauldron. God knew how long it would take.    

    

"Cut the crap. Have you forgotten where you are now? The Star Luo Stone Cauldron almost became an ancestral holy weapon. The formation inside is related to time. One day in the outside world is equivalent to one year in the inside. This amount of time is enough for you to squander. "    

    

The Star Sky Tablet snorted coldly. It immediately sat cross-legged and said, "After opening the Star Cauldron, you can peacefully stay inside and absorb the Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame. I will tell you the rest of the matter at that time. "    

    

The Star Sky Tablet waved its large hand as it spoke. The old man and Ye Feng's Heaven Cauldron appeared in front of it. They began to strengthen these two Heaven Cauldrons.    

    

"Time formation. . . "    

    

Xiao Yan involuntarily clicked his tongue in surprise when he heard this. Immediately, his mood became great. He turned his head around and glanced at the Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame with lingering fear. A thought passed through his mind and flames surged into his eyes, completely blocking the attack that the former could launch at him at any moment. The reason why he had been struck by the attack earlier was likely because his mood had relaxed after the Star Sky Tablet had spoken to him.    

    

The Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame on the Star Cauldron resonated with the latter, maintaining the stability of the Stone Cauldron's space. Xiao Yan rushed forward and swept his eyes over it. The Star Cauldron seemed to have undergone a great change in this space within the Stone Cauldron. The lid of the cauldron seemed to have loosened a little.    

    

With the Star Sky Tablet, Xiao Yan no longer had any worries. The Origin Qi condensed and rushed up to his fists, smashing down with a force that could shatter mountains and rivers.    

    

. . .    

    

Three years passed in the blink of an eye. To be precise, it was three days in the outside world, and three years in the Stone Cauldron.    

    

The Star Sky Tablet appeared to have melted. Within these three years, it did not emit a single sound. However, the two Heaven Cauldrons in front of it had quietly undergone a strange change. Compared to before, each of them had a different charm.    

    

Above the Star Cauldron, Xiao Yan licked his dry lips and forced himself to raise his spirits. His eyes swept over and saw that there were a few more cracks on the lid of the Star Cauldron.    

    

For the past three years, Xiao Yan had been thinking about what was affecting the Star Cauldron. Logically speaking, the Star Cauldron was the Heaven Cauldron that Old Man Xing Luo carried with him. How could it allow a Monarch Cultivation like him to use brute force to break it? Now that he thought about it, it was likely that the Star Cauldron was within the Star Luo Stone Cauldron. Due to the latter's influence, the Star Cauldron had loosened a little.    

    

If the Star Luo Stone Cauldron was successfully forged, it would be comparable to an ancestral level Sacred Weapon. Just the Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame alone did not have the ability to become the axis of the Star Luo Stone Cauldron. In that case, the Star Cauldron was the true core.    

    

In these three years, Xiao Yan's strength did not increase much. In this place, there was no way to increase his strength. The Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame was still suspended above the Star Cauldron, and he could only rely on his inability to touch it. It was as uncomfortable as it could be. With the Star Sky Tablet opening his mouth, This Monarch Flame could be said to be something that belonged to him.    

    

With the suppression of the Thousand Leaves Ancient Monarch Fire, the Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame's effect on Xiao Yan was very minimal. The pressure between the Monarch Flames was extremely strong. If not for the encouragement of the Xiao Yi back then, similar to the Three Thousand Lightning Monarch Flame, a low grade Monarch Flame like the Chaos Great Monarch Flame would not have been able to surround the Thousand Leaves Ancient Monarch Fire.    

    

Five months later, a corner of the Star Cauldron's lid finally cracked.    

    

Three months later, cracks spread all over the lid.    

    

Four months later, under Xiao Yan's joyful gaze, the lid shattered with a loud bang, turning into sparks of fire that dissipated into the Stone Cauldron space.    

    

"It's done!"    

    

Xiao Yan's spirit was roused. For four whole years, he persisted day after day, and finally, it was dawn.    

    

Swoosh!    

    

The large flaming hand reached out and grabbed the flame of the Fantasy Monarch Giant Spirit Flame in its palm. Xiao Yan leapt into the spatial zone of the Star Cauldron. Although he had been fighting for four years, his strength hadn't improved at all. He was familiar with all the techniques that he had mastered, and there wasn't the slightest bit of stagnation between the changes. Most importantly, his grasp of the Yin Yang Fusion Origin Qi had reached an unimaginable level.    

    

The instant Xiao Yan entered the Star Cauldron, the Star Sky Tablet opened its eyes at the right time. It surveyed the surroundings of the space around the Star Luo Stone Cauldron and nodded thoughtfully. A bitter smile surfaced on its cold and stern face.    

    

"Old friend, this Stone Cauldron contains your painstaking effort. I will take it away. . . In the future, even if I cannot become a true Ancestral Sacred Weapon, I will not let it be buried. . . "
