Sizzle!
When Wen Qingxuan threw herself into the cauldron, the cauldron instantly blazed with blazing flames. The flames were azure in colour, giving off a gentle feeling. But everyone here knew that it was only on the surface. Even a Perfected Earth Sovereign would be instantly reduced to ashes if they fell into the flames of a Heavenly Sovereign Realm.
Wen Ziyu and the other experts of the Wen Clan nervously looked at the cauldron with their backs covered in sweat. If Wen Qingxuan failed, then it would be unbearable.
That's because the moment she failed, even Wen Qingxuan would be reduced to ashes.
Dong Shan and the rest also paid attention to the cauldron. If Wen Qingxuan succeeded, then they would definitely make a move to snatch it.
Thus, the intense battle in the karst cave had calmed down, with the only exception being the battle that Mu Chen was in.
The two Martial Servants had already lost their consciousness and only knew how to slaughter. Thus, they weren't bothered about the inheritance. Right now, what they wanted to do was to tear Mu Chen, who was obstructing them, into puddles of blood.
But no matter how they attacked, they were still suppressed by Mu Chen, especially the Martial Servant that was trapped in the Soaring Flame Array. He was in a pathetic state with one of his arms broken.
Evidently, the entire situation had fallen into Mu Chen's control, and it was only a matter of time before the two Martial Servants were defeated.
Boom!
Just when Mu Chen was suppressing the two Martial Servants, there was a commotion in the depths of the cave and a deep roar burst out from the cauldron that was blazing with flames.
Whoosh!
In the next moment, a pale green flame suddenly swept out from the pill furnace. Then, a pillar of fire condensed above the pill furnace. Within the flame, a beautiful figure gradually became clear.
Looking at that familiar silhouette, Wen Ziyu and the rest instantly had joy on their faces.
The reason for that was because that beautiful figure was none other than Wen Qingxuan.
At this moment, her eyes were faintly shut, while her exquisite and alluring body was covered in green flames. These flames seemed to possess some sort of spirituality, as they burned on her body, transforming into dark green grass. Like a light armour, they protected her within.
Her long eyelashes faintly trembled. In the next instant, her eyes abruptly opened. Her phoenix-like eyes contained leaping green flames, causing her to appear exceptionally bewitching.
She was at a loss as she lowered her head to look at the flames on her body, before joy surged in her eyes. That's because she could sense that there was an additional complete inheritance in her mind.
Even this peculiar green flame existed within her body.
Clearly, when she made the decision to throw herself into the cauldron, she was not burned to ashes. Instead, she obtained the inheritance left behind by the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Fairy.
Most of the inheritances were alchemy comprehension and secret alchemy techniques. These might not be of much use to others, but to Wen Qingxuan, who had the identity of an alchemist, it was like a treasure.
It was just like how Mu Chen obtained the comprehension of Spiritual Arrays that his mother had left for him. Not only did it allow him to break through to the High Rank Spiritual Array Scholar Realm, it was also extremely useful for him to break through to the Heavenly Sovereign Realm in the future.
With this inheritance, Wen Qingxuan would definitely be able to become a famous Alchemist Grandmaster in the Great Thousand World, which was undoubtedly great news for the Wen Clan.
After all, Alchemists have always been one of the most popular occupations in the Great Thousand World.
"The information is indeed true."
Wen Qingxuan rejoiced, but she knew that obtaining this inheritance required great courage and decisiveness. After all, not everyone had the courage to throw themselves into the cauldron, since the slightest carelessness would cause them to be reduced to ashes.
Between their lives and the inheritance, most people would choose the former. After all, without their lives, it's useless, no matter how many inheritances there were.
"Damn it!"
When Wen Qingxuan obtained the inheritance, the faces of Dong Shan and the rest drastically changed. Their faces were dark. If Wen Qingxuan obtained the inheritance of the Spirit-Butterfly Remnant, then wouldn't their efforts be in vain?
"Haha, she really succeeded?"
In the Blackwater Prison, Wu Tong's eyes flickered when he saw this scene, before a peculiar smile appeared on his lips. He pinched his fingers together and a black talisman appeared in his hand. The talisman seemed to be engraved with profound runes that emitted a peculiar fluctuation.
Raising his head, he looked at Ling Xi and gently smiled, before the black talisman in his hand started to blaze.
Ling Xi had been paying attention to Wu Tong's movements, so when the black talisman appeared in his hand, she immediately sensed that something was amiss and activated the Spiritual Array without any hesitation.
Rustle!
The boundless black water brought with it terrifying power as countless black dragons charged out, roaring as they bit at Wu Tong. No matter what that fellow wanted to do, Ling Xi was going to stop him.
"Your reaction is swift, but it's useless."
But facing Ling Xi's obstruction, Wu Tong lightly smiled and the black talisman in his hand suddenly turned into a dense black smoke that enveloped his body.
As the black smoke enveloped him, Wu Tong's silhouette instantly disappeared.
"Qingxuan, watch out!"
Mu Chen, who was fighting with the two Martial Servants, roared with his eyes flickering.
Rustle!
A wisp of black smoke appeared in front of Wen Qingxuan in a phantom like fashion. He grabbed the latter's wrist, lifted her up, and heavily smashed her onto the pill furnace below.
Clang!
Wen Qingxuan heavily slammed against the cauldron and a crisp sound resounded. But perhaps it was because Wen Qingxuan had obtained the inheritance, the flames on the cauldron did not incinerate Wen Qingxuan into ashes.
Poof!
Even so, the force of the collision still caused Wen Qingxuan to open her mouth and spurt out a mouthful of blood, while the Spiritual Butterfly Pill Cauldron was also sent flying.
However, after throwing Wen Qingxuan away, Wu Tong did not unleash any killing move. On the contrary, he stopped and looked at the cauldron with a blazing gaze.
The pill furnace was originally located on a stone platform. At this moment, as the pill furnace was smashed away by Wen Qingxuan, a Spiritual Array was revealed on the ground where the pill furnace was originally located.
Looking at the Spiritual Array, Wu Tong's gaze grew even more blazing before he waved his hand and a talisman flew out and landed on the Spiritual Array.
Buzz!
Buzz! The Spiritual Array instantly burst out with a brilliant radiance and space distorted, as if it was connected to another place.
This sudden scene had exceeded everyone's expectations. No one had expected that there would be such a peculiar device hidden beneath the cauldron.
"Wen Qingxuan, did you really think that the objective of my Wu Clan was only the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Legacy?" Wu Tong turned around and looked at Wen Qingxuan with his eyes narrowed.
"The information of your Wen Clan is only related to the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Legacy, but you have no idea that the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Fairy's husband, the Black Dragon Battle Emperor, is hidden in the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Legacy!"
"Black Dragon Battle Emperor?!"
Wen Qingxuan was startled, since she had no idea about this. However, she knew about the Black Dragon Battle Emperor, since he was the companion of the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Fairy, a famous Heavenly Sovereign in ancient times.
Furthermore, the strongest aspect of the Black Dragon Battle Emperor wasn't his strength as a Spirit Heavenly Sovereign, but his other identity as a Battle Formation Master!
He had created a powerful army known as the Black Dragon Army, and every single warrior in that army was watered with dragon blood to turn into a Dragon Warrior. At its peak, the Black Dragon Army allowed the Black Dragon Battle Emperor to become a well-known figure amongst the Immortal Heavenly Sovereigns.
But in that battle, the Black Dragon Battle Emperor and the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Fairy fell in the Primordial Sacred Abyss, and there wasn't any news about them. It was as if the Black Dragon Army that resounded throughout the Great Thousand World had also disappeared.
"The objective of your Wu Clan is the Black Dragon Army?!"
Wen Qingxuan instantly understood what was going on. The Wu Clan must have obtained information about the Black Dragon Army, which was why they were willing to pay any price to come here.
Wu Tong shrugged his shoulders and smiled. "According to our intelligence, the Black Dragon Army might have suffered some losses, but all the warriors were nourished with dragon blood. So at the last moment, the Black Dragon Battle Emperor transformed the majority of the Black Dragon Army's warriors into Undying Dragon Warriors and put them into a deep sleep. So this army is well preserved. As long as this army falls into my Wu Clan's hands, I believe that my Wu Clan will soon be able to control it. At that time, it will be easy for us to destroy your Wen Clan."
"But the Black Dragon Space left behind by the Black Dragon Battle Emperor is under the protection of the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly Furnace. The furnace has flames that even a Perfected Earth Sovereign would be reduced to ashes upon contact. Only those that have obtained the inheritance of the Spirit-Pellet Butterfly can be immune to those flames!"
When he spoke up to this point, Wu Tong stared at Wen Qingxuan with ridicule and said, "So, if it wasn't for your bravery, I would really be having a headache about how to obtain the inheritance. After all, risking my life like that doesn't suit my identity."
Wen Qingxuan's face paled. So Wu Tong was actually waiting for her to obtain the inheritance, and she had clearly become the key for Wu Tong to open the Black Dragon Space.
But if the powerful Black Dragon Army really fell into the hands of the Wu Clan, it would definitely be a fatal blow to their Wen Clan.
So she had to stop Wu Tong!
"You want to stop me?
Actually, I'm just wasting my time with you because I don't want you to disturb the stability of the Black Dragon Space! "
As if he knew what Wen Qingxuan was thinking, Wu Tong smiled and shook his head. He looked at the space that was gradually forming before turning his head towards Mu Chen, Wen Qingxuan, Luo Li and the rest with a smile that was filled with killing intent.
"As for you guys, get ready to wait for me to obtain the Black Dragon Army. I hope that you guys will still have the courage to stand before me at that time!"
"Furthermore, let me tell you guys out of goodwill that only Battle Formation Masters are allowed to enter the Black Dragon Space, so don't waste your time."
"As for my other identity, it just so happens that I am a battle formation master."
Wu Tong pitifully looked at everyone. Without any hesitation, he took a deep breath and was about to step into that space.
However, it was also at this moment that a burst of laughter rang out in the cave with a tinge of astonishment.
"A Battle Formation Master?"
"What a coincidence, I'm one as well!"
Everyone abruptly raised their heads and saw that Mu Chen, who was being obstructed by the Martial Servant, had turned into a bolt of lightning and charged towards the space.
At the same time, a unique fluctuation rose from his body. It was the Battle Will that only a Battle Formation Master possessed!
