Chapter 45: Soul Purifying Flame, Great Dao Heart Calamity

  The world of fire, fierce, destructive, reborn, and renewed. In this realm, the four great ways of fire are contained, holding both vitality and destruction, making it incredibly powerful, with an unstoppable momentum.

  Hiss! Hiss!

  Huang Xiaoyao transformed into the yin-yang heavenly phoenix, flapping its wings and stirring up waves of yin-yang windstorms, dissolving the four great paths of fire, while the yin-yang grinding wheel spun at extreme speed, grinding away the primal energy of fire and transforming it into yin-yang power.

  However, these four great avenues are the stunts of Quan Sheng Dianfeng's great power. Relying on Huang Xiaoyao's imperfect Yin-Yang Tianfeng body, he cannot completely withstand it. After all, Huang Xiaoyao's Yin-Yang Tianfeng body was formed by absorbing most of the Phoenix tribe or Flying Bird tribe's essence and blood. The true essence of Yin-Yang Tianfeng - Yin-Yang Tianguang has not yet awakened, and only the combination of Huanglei Yan and Feng Wujie's origin can form the true Yin-Yang Tianfeng bloodline.

  Hiss! Hiss! The sound of burning rose, and Huang Xiaoyao's yin-yang millstone was purified by the fire, gradually disappearing into nothingness.

  "Die! Evil fire extinguishes the soul!" The evil cloud evil god was full of evil energy, and only saw a burning black flame magic gourd appear in his hand, dark and eerie like a black hole, emitting waves of evil energy, forming clusters of evil fire.

  Evil fire is silent and invisible, ignoring the vital energy, confusing the mind and spirit, causing people's minds to waver and lose control.

  Soul-destroying fire? Huang Xiaoyao's mind was shocked, and he couldn't believe that the Heavenly Fire Spirit had changed so much. Originally, its innate connection with him was incredibly deep, but now it had absorbed evil energy and transformed into an evil flame, a flame that targeted souls.

  A streak of black flame entered Huang Xiaoyou's sea of souls and struck at his soul.

  "Good! I didn't expect Fire Cloud to have mastered the evil fire that targets the soul. Now, the Carefree Demon is a turtle in a jar!" Wind Without Bounds exclaimed with great joy. Earlier, he had seen Huang Xiaoyou transform into the Yin-Yang Heavenly Phoenix and was extremely frightened. Now, seeing Huo Yun use his divine ability that targeted the soul, he felt extremely at ease.

  Feng Wujie and Zhu Yan have already finished their preparations, and the divine bird is not holding back either. With infinite power, they launch a fierce attack on Huang Xiaoyou's physical body, seeking to destroy it while he is distracted.

  Rumble! The place where Huang Xiaoyou was standing only had a deep abyss left, which was bottomless and seemed to have turned his physical body into fragments.

  "Haha, it's finally destroyed, where is Lingbao?" Feng Wujie looked around instantly.

  Just then, a figure emerged from the sky, and a huge hand descended from heaven.

  "Carefree Heavenly Palm!"

  A large palm slapped towards Feng Wuji, with a loud noise, an infinite force sent Feng Wuji flying into the ground, deep into the volcano, utterly disheveled.

  It turned out to be Huang Xiaoyao, who was seen floating leisurely in the air, as if comprehending something. He seemed motionless, yet to Huo Yunxiashen and others, Huang Xiaoyao was constantly moving, only at a speed too fast, seemingly always in place, this was the manifestation of the profundity of the Speed Dao.

  "Fire, it's not just about vitality and spiritual connection. It can also destroy the soul and take away one's life force. If that's the case, my path of the soul should also have a great divine power."

  Huang Xiaoyao's Broken Law Divine Pupil continuously analyzed Huo Yun Xie Shen's Soul-destroying Evil Fire, transforming it into rows of symbols filled with evil energy. The Broken Law Divine Pupil emitted rows of green light, analyzing the evil energy symbols and separating the evil energy from them, transforming it into rows of profound and majestic righteous symbols that took on a shapeless flame form.

  These colorless flames fluttered and danced, feeding on the power of Huang Xiaoyou's soul. They jumped up and down in the vast ocean of Huang Xiaoyou's soul, playing happily without restraint. Then they formed into transparent flames that nourished Huang Xiaoyou's soul.

  The burning of this flame made Huang Xiaoyou's soul feel comfortable, as if the impurities in his soul were being burned away, and the impurities in the soul power he had absorbed from Panwang Soul Spirit and Hunyuan Demon Soul were also being removed by the transparent flames.

  "Ah, comfortable! I didn't know my soul still had so many impurities. After this refining process, my soul is now crystal clear, my mind is even clearer, understanding the Tao is easier, my soul is more solid, and its power is stronger. Good, let's call this flame that absorbs the soul's power 'Soul Purifying Fire'! It can both destroy and refine the soul, with life and destruction coexisting - this is truly the Great Way!" Huang Xiaoyao muttered to himself.

  Open your eyes, mysterious *Chongniu Dou, a powerful soul suppresses and presses down on the four great abilities.

  "Impossible! How can you be unscathed?" Huo Yun Xie Shen exclaimed, his Soul-Extinguishing Evil Flame unrivaled and unmatched, never having met an opponent since he obtained the Primordial Spirit Treasure Evil Demon Gourd. Combining it with the Open Heaven Fire Spirit's fundamental principles, he created the Soul-Extinguishing Evil Flame divine ability. Since then, he had been invincible, devouring countless powerful souls. Yet Huang Xiaoyou was somehow unharmed.

  "Hmph! To come but not go is impolite, taste my soul's pure fire!"

  Huang Xiaoyao's powerful soul took effect, and the Soul of the Soul in the Nether Sea churned violently. Waves of pure soul fire shot out from the eyes of the Broken Law God, directly entering the souls of the four powerful beings.

  The pure fire of the soul is like a maggot in the heel bone, following the trajectory of the soul's power, sticking to the souls of the four great abilities.

  The souls of the four great abilities are not human, but a giant Roc, a flame, an ape and a divine bird, which are their prototypes.

  "Ah!"

  A mournful cry that shook the heavens erupted, and four powerful beings transformed into their true forms, plummeting from high above into the volcano's mouth. However, as fire-elemental spirits, the boundless primal energy of the volcano slightly alleviated their agony. Yet this suffering was not physical pain but a profound spiritual torment, one that no living being could endure.

  Unless a saint, the soul is entrusted to emptiness, suffering can be scattered throughout the world, letting the entire world bear it for him, and his heart can contain the world, of course, he can be invincible.

  However, the four great demons were only quasi-saints at their peak, and they were a hundred million miles away from the realm of saints. Their souls were burned by Huang Xiaoyao's soul-refining fire, causing their original souls to weaken.

  The pure fire of the soul is like Huang Xiaoyou's spiritual division, so it feels the intense pain of the four great demons, but in Huang Xiaoyou's view, they are all self-inflicted and self-destructive.

  Greed is born from the heart and will inevitably reap its own consequences!

  "Evil spirit, evil storm, soul-cutting hand!" Huoyun Xie Shen actually cut off his own wrist, self-destructing the origin of his innate spiritual treasure, extinguishing the pure fire of his soul. However, his soul was cut in half, losing at least one yuan's worth of magical power.

  It can be seen that Huoyun Xiangshen is a person with a firm Dao heart. Such a person is destined to achieve great things in the Dao.

  Hiss! The Fire Cloud Evil God transformed into a long rainbow and flashed away, leaving behind an endless stream of resentment.

  "A thousand miles of crimson, a brilliant great disaster, annihilating all living things!" Zhu Yan let out a loud roar, his body transformed into ten thousand zhang, and an endless stream of disastrous energy was emitted from his body.

  The heavens and humans are exhausted, all living things can be destroyed, and oneself can also be destroyed! This is a great fearlessness! Zhu Yan used the root of disaster to extinguish Huang Xiaoyou's soul fire, but his soul fell into the realm of Tianren Wushuai. However, isn't it better to know the way of life and death than to die?

  Zhu Yan was wrapped in a disastrous aura, fleeing thousands of miles away. This disastrous aura that triggered the decline of heaven and humanity made even Huang Xiaoyou dare not touch it, lest he fall into the danger of decline.

  "A magnificent aura, forging the Golden Elixir Path! The elixir's energy bursts forth, reaching the heavens, and one can attain Nirvana!" A divine bird's cry pierced the clouds, a powerful force shot straight up to the heavens, a stream of Golden Elixir's energy extinguished the soul's pure fire, and Bi Fang fled far away, escaping for ten thousand miles.

  "Ah! I'm so close! Just one more step and I would have swallowed Fengyuan Luona's origin, achieving the body of Yin-Yang Tianfeng. The Phoenix Ancestor would have been reborn, returning to the Yin-Yang Cave!" With a loud roar, Feng Wujie transformed into nothingness, leaving no trace behind, only his two origins disappearing without a clue as to where they went.

  Huang Xiaoyou gazed at him solemnly, and suddenly realized that he didn't have any means to keep the four of them behind. In his heart, there was a kind of fear towards Hongjun, a fear towards the Great Dao. If these four individuals among the countless powerful beings had such abilities, then what about those even more powerful beings? What kind of earth-shattering Great Daos did they possess?

  Zulong, Hongjun, Panwang, and later Pangu Yuanshen Sanqing, Twelve Ancestors Wu, etc., how powerful are these famous greats in the vast wilderness?

  "Why must I cultivate the Unrestrained Way? Why not just focus on cultivating one way? Why must I give up my cultivation to improve my bloodline by cultivating the 'Million Blood Secrets'? If I only cultivated the Great Devouring Technique, the Great Blood Spirit Technique and the Broken Law Divine Eye, without cultivating so many great ways, perhaps in the Desolate Expanse I would also be a powerful being with control over one side. That would be a unique advantage, and at that time becoming the first Saint of the Desolate Expanse would even be possible. Give up, give up on the Unrestrained Way, give up on the Million Blood Secrets!" A voice tempted Huang Xiaoyou, and even his soul's pure fire quietly fell into the depths of his soul's ocean.

  This is Huang Xiaoyou's first heart demon, this heart demon is not a chaotic magic spirit, nor is it a heavenly tribulation, but a heart tribulation, only by self-enlightenment and firming one's Dao heart can one break through this heart tribulation.

  But who can conquer themselves, break through their own mental demons and attain a state of infinite mind?

  Huang Xiaoyao has changed, his eyes are no longer firm, no longer carefree and boundless, no longer contain a sense of elegance, but instead are perplexed. This is the power of heart demon, its strength depends on the power of the soul.

  "Roar! I shall abandon my mortal body and transform into an invincible wild god, cultivating the path of the savage wilderness!" Huang Xiaoyao instantly transformed into a thousand-meter giant beast, with a white head, black body, and a physique full of beauty. Every line, every muscle, and every bone was filled with astonishing power, and every part of its body displayed the nobility of its bloodline.

  This is Huang Xiaoyou's Swallowing Heaven Mouse Body, but it has already taken a different path from the Chaos Demon God's Swallowing Heaven Mouse. He no longer simply cultivates the Great Devouring Technique, nor does he desperately devour yuanqi to become stronger. Instead, he combines the Great Bloodline Technique with the Broken Law Divine Eyes, relying solely on the powerful bloodline force.

  However, now Huang Xiaoyou seems to want to give up this endless road and choose the known barbaric path.

  The path of barbarism, cultivating the body of a fierce god, can achieve the chaotic demon god.

  Hum!

  "Mistaken, should choose the Tianlong Way, destroy the Dragon Court, devour the Ancestral Dragon, achieve the Chaotic Heaven Dragon Body, and be invincible! Or the Yin-Yang Heaven Phoenix Way, devour the Phoenix Clan! Can also cultivate the Chaotic Jade Qilin Body, roam freely in the Chaos!"

  Huang Xiaoyao transformed again into the body of a 100,000-zhang Tianlong, and in an instant, he transformed again into the body of a Yin-yang Tianfeng, and in another instant, he transformed again into the body of a Hundun Yuqilin.

  "Ah! My head hurts so much, who am I after all? What great Dao should I cultivate? The Soul Dao is also very powerful!"

  Huang Xiaoyao transformed into a creature with the body of a giant turtle, the legs of a qilin, the wings of a heavenly phoenix, and the tail of a heavenly dragon. Moreover, it had four heads! Its eight eyes were bewildering beyond compare.

  At this moment, a refreshing breath like sweet rain struck Huang Xiaoyao's heart, forming a fearless and boundless state of mind. It was a red **, a red heart.
