Chapter 179: Everything Ready! Preparations for the Judgment!

Inside the body of the Fallen Heart Flame.

Xiao Ze was covered by an aura of deep blue energy, resisting the scorching heat of the Fallen Heart Flame.

As for the so-called heart flame attack of the Fallen Heart Flame, it had no effect on Xiao Ze.

The energy of the Fallen Heart Flame could not form the heart flame within Xiao Ze's body, as it was completely absorbed by the Source Tree, no matter how much came.

And the simple burning of the flames was blocked by the power of Xiao Ze's Infinite Ocean.

With the current diameter and height of the Source Tree, the amount of combat energy it could store was extremely vast.

Moreover, the Source Tree could also draw combat energy from the void space as a supplement.

So even massive consumption of combat energy could not exhaust Xiao Ze's energy.

The two main attacks of the Fallen Heart Flame were being completely countered by Xiao Ze, so it could only watch helplessly as Xiao Ze moved within it.

Furthermore, a yellow root anchored in the void constantly extracted its energy, enraging the Fallen Heart Flame, but it could do nothing about it.

With initial intelligence, it felt an indescribable humiliation.

Xiao Ze approached Xiao Yan and, feeling closely, confirmed that Master Yao had fallen into a deep sleep, with the last forces of his soul sustaining the white flames.

Xiao Yan's state was also quite peculiar; he seemed to be in a dream, but his body was adapting to the environment.

Recalling the original story, where Xiao Yan was dragged into the underground world and, despite all methods being exhausted, survived miraculously, Xiao Ze frowned. He remembered how Xiao Yan escaped the flames of the Fallen Heart Flame.

It seemed it was thanks to a lotus platform born from the Blue Heart Flame Lotus, which melted and became a liquid that absorbed other pills and herbs, forming a mixture that kept him alive.

After remembering all this, Xiao Ze scratched his head, wondering how he could recreate that situation, which seemed impossible. Xiao Yan survived thanks to incredible luck and miracles chosen by fate.

The mixture of various pills and herbs without causing conflict and nurturing Xiao Yan's body was a true miracle.

Xiao Ze rubbed his temples, feeling that his knowledge in alchemy was being greatly challenged.

The golden root of the Source Tree broke through the defense of the Bone Chilling Flame, allowing Xiao Ze to examine the inside of Xiao Yan's body.

"There are traces of the Earth Spirit Pill… at least he wasn't completely reckless, he had some preparation."

"Wait a moment!" Xiao Ze suddenly frowned.

He had discovered a medicinal energy different from the Earth Spirit Pill within Xiao Yan's body, but much more powerful.

This energy was transforming Xiao Yan's body, who seemed to be adapting to the environment thanks to this force.

"So, Xiao Yan took an unknown pill that significantly increases his resistance to exotic flames."

"This pill is very potent, it must be at least level seven upper."

"This is…"

Xiao Ze was stunned after his examination. Even without the original story's fortunes, Xiao Yan had obtained incredible luck.

He even got a pill that specifically increased his resistance to exotic flames.

"With the Earth Spirit Pill and this unknown pill, Xiao Yan's body has reached a special balance with the environment."

"Over time, Xiao Yan could develop the same resistance and ability to counter the Fallen Heart Flame as in the original story."

"How incredible!"

Realizing this, Xiao Ze stopped absorbing the energy of the Fallen Heart Flame with the golden root.

He did not want to break the balance that Xiao Yan had achieved with such effort.

Xiao Ze stayed a bit longer, ensuring Xiao Yan's condition.

As he had thought, Xiao Yan's body was quickly adapting to the Fallen Heart Flame.

"He just needs time to fully adapt, and then the hunter-prey relationship will be reversed."

Xiao Ze sighed in relief. He was happy that Xiao Yan was safe.

If it weren't for that unknown pill, Xiao Ze would have had to rescue Xiao Yan from the underground world, making him lose this opportunity.

"What incredible luck…"

With this in mind, Xiao Ze left the body of the Fallen Heart Flame.

Seeing him leave, the eyes of the Fallen Heart Flame showed a surprisingly human-like relief.

"It's time to go, I almost broke the balance. If I stay longer, I might affect Xiao Yan's opportunity."

Back at the base of the tower, Xiao Ze explained Xiao Yan's situation to the Great Elder.

"So, according to you, Xiao Yan is not only alive but has found an opportunity."

"Is it possible that he will develop a special resistance to the Fallen Heart Flame?"

"Taking him out now could ruin that opportunity?"

The Great Elder was surprised.

Seeing Xiao Ze nod, the Great Elder sighed in relief and commented:

"Boy, at first I thought your brother wasn't as monstrous as you, but now it seems he is also a special monster."

"The Great Elder jokes, but my third brother has yet to wake up…"

"Don't worry, boy. If your brother wakes up, even if the seal breaks again, I will enter to save him."

The Great Elder spoke solemnly, and the other elders nodded.

They felt guilty for not having taken good care of Xiao Ze's brother, almost costing him his life.

Now, they had the chance to make up for it and would do so with all their might.

"Thank you to all the elders."

Xiao Ze bowed deeply, "But if it's only for a short time, it won't be necessary to trouble you."

"Haha, that's true, your strength surpasses ours."

An elder laughed, unable to measure Xiao Ze's strength.

Entering the underground world and returning unscathed, even the great fire serpent could not handle him. His strength was astonishing.

The other elders nodded in agreement.

"Boy, since you are back, there is something you must do, something that affects the reputation of Jia Nan Academy."

The Great Elder said suddenly, surprising Xiao Ze.

He remembered the incident of Elder Lin being attacked by the Black Clan.

"Great Elder, do you mean dealing with the attackers from the Black Clan?"

"Yes, with your help, none will escape."

"Understood, Great Elder, it is my duty as an elder of the academy."

"Haha, don't worry, without your pills, we wouldn't have overcome this crisis."

The Great Elder smiled and consoled, "Even though you weren't here, your contribution was enormous."

"Then, when there are materials, I will make more sun pills."

"Good, good."

The Great Elder laughed, patting him on the shoulder.
