Chapter 208: Invitation from the Burning Flame Valley!

This unexpected change had never occurred in any previous sessions of the Demon Sound Temple in Sound Valley. The disciples of Sound Valley began murmuring among themselves.

"What's happening? I suddenly feel very uncomfortable, like a powerful warrior is exerting pressure on us," said one of them.

"This sensation feels more like a spiritual pressure. Where is that invisible light coming from?" asked another.

The powerful leaders of various forces, seated on the high platform, had varied expressions, filled with curiosity and amazement.

The master of Sound Valley slightly gripped the armrests of his seat. He knew his disciples well and knew none of them had such a powerful spiritual force. This meant the source of that force came from another force, most likely Dan Ta, since alchemists are known for their great spiritual power.

The master of Sound Valley felt a bit uncomfortable, like he had worked hard for the benefit of others. Although Dan Ta had paid a high price to participate in the Demon Sound Temple, he didn't expect them to achieve such a gain.

However, he had no other thoughts about it, as this situation was a matter of mutual agreement. Although this time Dan Ta had great success, in previous occasions they had completely failed.

"With this spiritual force, Dan Ta will surely become even more powerful," thought many leaders, casting glances at Elder Liu Tian, perhaps considering a closer relationship with Dan Ta.

Liu Tian, noticing the looks from the other forces, smiled slightly. He ignored their glances and focused on Xiao Ze's progress.

The invisible spiritual light lasted almost half a day before finally disappearing. Inside the cave, Xiao Ze opened his eyes, feeling his spiritual power enveloping his body. The annoying demonic sounds vanished instantly.

"Is this the soul power of the Spiritual Realm? It's really powerful!" exclaimed Xiao Ze. "It seems the Demon Sound Temple no longer has any effect on someone in the Spiritual Realm."

Xiao Ze decided it was time to leave. He took a deep breath and gathered all his spiritual pressure.

"My spiritual force should now be at the mid-level of the Spiritual Realm. Thanks to my previous accumulation, my spiritual power has grown enormously after this breakthrough."

Xiao Ze had experienced many significant breakthroughs along his journey, and this time was no different. The strength of his soul, nurtured by the Origin Tree, was extremely powerful and this advancement had increased it even more.

"When I return to Dan Ta, I can attempt to craft eighth-grade pills. I'm eager to see the strength of the Two-Colored Lightning."

After adapting to his new strength, Xiao Ze took out the silver stone, thinking of breaking it to exit the cave. However, he looked around and decided to explore a bit more now that he could completely isolate himself from the demonic sound.

For several days, he explored the cave without finding anything significant. He even encountered few participants, which wasn't surprising considering the cave's size and the limited number of participants.

Finally, he decided to leave the cave. Upon exiting, the sunlight made him squint. The curious onlookers around knew it was he who had caused the great commotion during the breakthrough.

Ignoring the curious glances, Xiao Ze returned to Elder Liu Tian's side. The other Dan Ta members had already returned, some with disheartened expressions. Dan Chen smiled at Xiao Ze, who returned the smile.

Liu Tian, seeing Xiao Ze, took him aside and asked quietly, "Xiao Ze, did you advance to the Spiritual Realm?"

"Yes," Xiao Ze replied with a slight nod, making Elder Liu Tian smile.

"Excellent! I knew your talent as an alchemist is the best in the entire continent."

"Elder Liu, you flatter me..." Xiao Ze tried to say, but Liu Tian interrupted him with a smile.

"Don't be modest! At your age, I was still struggling under my master's guidance."

At that moment, a man with fiery red hair approached with a smile.

"Elder Liu, aren't you going to introduce me to this new talent of Dan Ta?" said the man, whose aura was impenetrable.

"Master Tang?" said Liu Tian in surprise, before introducing him to Xiao Ze. "This is the new elder of Dan Ta, Xiao Ze. And Xiao Ze, this is Tang Zhen, the master of the Burning Flame Valley."

"Nice to meet you, Master Tang," said Xiao Ze, bowing respectfully.

"Elder Xiao Ze, no need to be so formal. With your level of skill, even I must show respect," replied Tang Zhen. "Actually, I came to ask you for a favor."

Xiao Ze and Liu Tian exchanged looks, and Xiao Ze responded, "What can I do for you, Master Tang?"

"I would like you to help us craft a pill for the Burning Flame Valley. Of course, we will be generous with the rewards, regardless of the result," said Tang Zhen.

"Do you already need a Flame Protecting Pill?" thought Xiao Ze, surprised.

"Well, Master Tang, I will be happy to help in any way I can," said Xiao Ze, nodding with a slight smile.
