After clarifying the current situation, Xiao Lin said no more.

Directly in front of the many Elders of Jia Nan Academy, he entered the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower just like that.

"Everyone, Elder Lin has entered the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower to resolve the current crisis. Everyone, put in more effort and hold on a little longer; we must not let the Fallen Heart Flame break through the seal!"

After Xiao Lin's figure disappeared into the entrance of the tower, Grand Elder Su Qian encouraged the remaining Elders.

"Yes! ×n"

The many Elders responded in unison at this moment.

As for the two Guardians, Qian Mu and Bai Lie, they now stood to one side to prepare for the worst-case scenario should Xiao Lin fail. It could be said that whether Jia Nan Academy could maintain its original state from today onward depended entirely on Xiao Lin.

On the other side, as soon as Xiao Lin entered the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, a violent Heart Flame was immediately birthed within his body. This was an attack launched by the Fallen Heart Flame against Xiao Lin!

It was different from ordinary days. Now, this Heart Flame birthed within the human body did not temper Dou Qi or improve cultivation effects; instead, it extremely exhausted one's mental state!

Clearly, with the Fallen Heart Flame rioting, the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower no longer possessed the function of accelerating cultivation.

To be honest, if anyone were to cultivate inside the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower now, it was guaranteed that their Dou Qi would run wild within their body in minutes, followed by their meridians exploding and death!

Fortunately, Xiao Lin was now at the Nine-Star Dou Zong cultivation level. An attack like this from the Fallen Heart Flame basically had no effect on him.

"So it really was the changes brought to the Fallen Heart Flame by the Spirit Gathering Formation?"

At this moment, after entering the tower, Xiao Lin could clearly see that the Spirit Gathering Formations throughout the entire Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower were operating at high speed.

Strands of Heaven and Earth Energy were being converted into flame essence by the Fallen Heart Flame. This was the root cause of why the Fallen Heart Flame had suddenly become stronger.

The riot of the Fallen Heart Flame didn't restrict the operation of the Spirit Gathering Formation; on the contrary, it increased its efficiency. It was evident that the Fallen Heart Flame also had a deep love for the Spirit Gathering Formation Xiao Lin had set up!

Thinking about it, it made sense.

Although the current Fallen Heart Flame had birthed a certain level of intelligence, it still acted mostly on instinct. How could it be willing to destroy a Spirit Gathering Formation that could bring it benefits?

Watching this scene, after Xiao Lin pondered for a moment, he likewise did not choose to stop the operation of the Spirit Gathering Formation. Although stopping the array could prevent the Fallen Heart Flame from continuing to grow stronger.

But right now, Xiao Lin had another way to suppress the Fallen Heart Flame.

Before entering the tower, Xiao Lin had also asked Grand Elder Su Qian whether he should stop the Spirit Gathering Formation. In Grand Elder Su Qian's words, it was best to maintain the original state if possible; if it truly wouldn't work, it wouldn't be too late to do it then.

Grand Elder Su Qian's answer happened to coincide perfectly with Xiao Lin's thoughts.

After all, the benefits brought to the entire academy by placing the Spirit Gathering Formation in the tower were solid. The only side effect was that the Fallen Heart Flame would also take the opportunity to grow stronger.

But other than that, there were indeed only benefits.

It could be said that as long as the problem brought by the Fallen Heart Flame was solved, everything else would no longer be a problem. Having made his decision, Xiao Lin went all the way down and soon arrived at the very bottom floor of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower!

At the bottom of this ninth floor of the tower, milky-white flames basically filled the entire space. Even Xiao Lin had to choose to use Dou Qi to protect himself to avoid being swallowed by this terrifying sea of fire.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a pillar of fire struck.

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Lin dispersed it.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss—"

Immediately following that, this sea of milky-white fire seemed to suddenly come to life, launching attacks toward Xiao Lin's position from all directions.

Clearly, this was the Fallen Heart Flame preparing to clear out Xiao Lin, the intruder. Or rather, Xiao Lin's arrival here made the Fallen Heart Flame sense a certain level of crisis, causing it to launch an attack so impatiently.

However, this sea of milky-white fire was not the main body of the Fallen Heart Flame after all. Its power was at most equivalent to a low-star Dou Zong using a Dou Technique to attack. In front of Xiao Lin, a Nine-Star Dou Zong, this was simply not enough to look at!

Therefore, facing the sea of fire sweeping in from all directions, Xiao Lin merely lifted his right hand gently and made a grasping motion in the air. Instantly, a large hand shimmering with starlight caught this sea of milky-white fire in its grip.

Those burning milky-white flames were unable to cause any damage to this starlight hand. The characteristic of Star Dou Qi, which was "impervious to all methods," played its role once again at this moment.

With a surge of Xiao Lin's power, that starlight hand extinguished the milky-white sea of fire that was sweeping in from all directions. Walking as if taking a stroll in a courtyard, Xiao Lin had already swept away all the milky-white flames on the bottom floor of the tower.

However, this was the place closest to the Fallen Heart Flame after all.

Even though Xiao Lin extinguished the sea of fire here in a short amount of time, in just a few moments, a steady stream of milky-white flames was once again generated out of thin air in the surroundings.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Lin's brow twitched.

"It seems I still must solve all the problems from the source!"

Saying this, Xiao Lin cast his gaze toward the very center of the tower's ninth floor.

There, a grand formation was slowly operating. At the same time, beneath it was the place where the essence of the Fallen Heart Flame was at its most dense!

Xiao Lin's Heaven Realm Soul power could clearly perceive this point.

"No wonder the Grand Elder and the others couldn't forcibly suppress the Fallen Heart Flame with their strength."

"The characteristics of this Heavenly Flame truly block many conventional methods. Even I cannot suppress this Fallen Heart Flame purely by relying on Dou Qi without damaging the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower!"

Through the series of actions just now, Xiao Lin already had a judgment in his heart.

Since he had already tested this point, Xiao Lin could only choose the next best thing and move the hidden hand he had set up earlier.

"Little Yan, in the future, if you want to subdue the Fallen Heart Flame, you can only rely on yourself."

After muttering a sentence in his heart, Xiao Lin made a move once again.

Just as a sea of milky-white fire was birthed in the surroundings again and swept toward Xiao Lin, the bottom of the tower's ninth floor suddenly erupted with brilliant light, and countless runes spread across the void.

In the next second, the surrounding space began to warp, and that sea of milky-white fire disappeared from Xiao Lin's vision. When Xiao Lin looked out again, he was already in the middle of a world of magma!

That's right, just now, Xiao Lin had chosen to open the seal beneath the ninth floor of the tower and actively entered the magma world below. After Xiao Lin entered the magma world, the first thing he saw was that milky-white fire python not far away!

This was impressively the main body of the Fallen Heart Flame!
