Chapter 704: Mysterious Fire Domain

"This young friend can rest assured; the honorary elder does not restrict your freedom in any way. If you find it unpleasant in our alliance, you may leave at any time, and I will not stop you." Patting his chest, the Grand Elder assured him.

At this moment, a smile appeared on Yang Tian's face. He nodded and said, "In that case, I shall join your alliance."

"Haha... good... young friend... no, Elder Meng!" The Grand Elder laughed heartily, brimming with high spirits. Having such a prodigy join the Heavenly Dao Alliance would be of great benefit in the coming great tribulation.

A golden token appeared in his hand, which he handed to Yang Tian. "Drop a drop of blood on it. From now on, this token will be Elder Meng's identity."

Yang Tian nodded. After dripping a drop of blood, a connection was immediately established with the token.

"Elder Meng, finish your current matters first. Whenever you wish to cultivate at the Alchemy Dao Alliance, just use the token to instruct the disciples here, and they will take you there." With that, the Grand Elder took his leave.

Pursing his lips, Yang Tian put away the token and began to look around.

There were four shelves here, filled with a rich medicinal fragrance. Yang Tian walked over, scanned them, and nodded slightly.

The seventh-grade pills here varied in quality, but they were all rare, and even some lost formulas could be found.

He moved his steps, and when he noticed a jade bottle, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

"Soul Fusion Pill, what a coincidence!" Picking up the jade bottle and seeing the pill inside, Yang Tian couldn't help but smile.

Then Yang Tian slapped his head, and his body appeared in the Ancestral Dragon Ring. He immediately walked forward.

Yang Xiao's condition had improved greatly since the day he was severely injured; his dim soul body now showed some fluctuation.

Gazing at Yang Xiao's soul body, Yang Tian took out the eighth-grade Soul Fusion Pill and stuffed it into his mouth.

As soon as the pill entered his abdomen, a pure soul energy emanated from Yang Xiao's entire body. Wisps of soul energy spread out continuously, and the cracks in his seven souls healed directly under the nourishment of the pill's energy.

"The Manifest Saint realm requires nurturing a clone. Uncle Xiao's destiny soul was destroyed, and now it needs to be reborn. It will probably take a lot of time, and his main body is not lightly injured either." Scratching his head, Yang Tian said.

After observing for a while longer, Yang Tian nodded. "It should take some time. By then, under the effect of this eighth-grade Soul Fusion Pill, Uncle Xiao's soul cultivation should improve significantly."

He clenched his fists, returned his mind to his physical body, looked around, and walked out.

Just as he descended the stairs, Yang Tian's gaze fell on Cao Feng's gloomy eyes. His brows furrowed slightly, and a trace of anger rose in his heart.

"I hope you don't come looking for trouble with me." Clenching his fists, Yang Tian averted his gaze and walked forward.

"Everyone is here. Let's go." The old man looked at Yang Tian with a smile, pleased that this young man had joined the Alchemy Dao Alliance.

The divine fire on the ninth floor of the Alchemy Tower had unknown origins. Ancient sages only knew that the divine fire was very special, capable of aiding one in comprehending the origins, and was a supreme treasure of heaven and earth.

The Alchemy Tower had also become a frequent destination for many geniuses, as the speed of cultivation inside was immeasurably faster than outside.

The arrival of ten young talents attracted much attention. Various discussions arose along the way, and the alchemy conference had indeed reached its peak.

Yang Tian even noticed some bold female cultivators casting flirtatious glances, which made him shudder and quicken his pace.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the group arrived at the eighth floor of the Alchemy Tower. The old man stopped before a void space.

His expression turned reverent. He cupped his hands and said, "Supreme Elder, the top ten of this alchemy conference have all been brought. Please open the passage."

"Supreme Elder..." Yang Tian's pupils contracted slightly. The Supreme Elder of the Alchemy Dao Alliance should be an Undying powerhouse; he hadn't expected the alliance to deploy such a strong expert to guard the ninth layer.

"It seems things here are not as the outside world claims; the Divine Flame must be very special." Rubbing his nose, just as Yang Tian lifted his eyelids, he saw a figure appear in the void.

He was terrifyingly scorching, like a blazing furnace, his blood energy astonishingly intense, and the divine might radiating from him made it impossible to look directly at him.

This figure sat cross-legged in the void like a deity, his gaze sweeping over the ten individuals. When he noticed Yang Tian and the other two, he let out a soft exclamation.

He sat cross-legged in the void, his aura blazing like a divine sun. His eyes fixed on the demonic woman, sensing that this woman was not simple.

The demonic woman slightly raised her head, her eyes fixed on the figure in the void, and sneered inwardly: "How could my great technique be seen through by a mere Divine Palace realm cultivator? Overreaching!"

The Alchemy Dao Alliance figure stared for a while but couldn't discern anything, then turned his gaze to the mysterious woman, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes as well.

Finally, his gaze fell on Yang Tian, and the surprise in his eyes deepened. It was indeed somewhat incredible that the first place in the Alchemy Conference had been taken by a brat at the Half-Emperor realm.

"This Alchemy Conference is truly strange. All three are extraordinary, each protected by a supreme treasure, and they even refined eighth-grade pills," the figure in the void murmured to himself.

Just as everyone waited in silence, the figure in the void dissipated, and a corner of the void suddenly split open, exuding an ancient aura.

"You may enter now. Wait here ten days from now, and someone will escort you out," the old man said, turning to the ten behind him.

Yang Tian nodded and stepped toward the rift in the void. As soon as he entered the passage, an indescribable origin energy spread, making his entire body feel incredibly comfortable.

Roar! The Thunder Flame Divine Dragon dormant within him let out a great roar, its eyes flashing with joyful light, almost breaking free.

"This origin energy is truly astonishing. One can comprehend the power of origin at any time. A cultivator at the Emperor realm would cultivate many times faster here!" Yang Tian licked his lips and thought to himself.

As he walked deeper into the passage, the surrounding origin energy gradually intensified. A hint of joy appeared in Yang Tian's eyes, and he quickly moved toward the end of the passage.

After about thirty breaths, Yang Tian stopped, his gaze fixed on the world ahead.

It was like a fire domain—red flames blazing, overwhelming waves of fire rolling through the void, shaking the space.

The place was vast beyond measure, with endless flames spreading everywhere, covering everything in sight.

Not only that, but every wisp of flame contained a trace of origin power. If one could devour and refine it, it would greatly benefit cultivation!

"Truly a treasure land!" Yang Tian exclaimed in amazement. What delighted him was not how much flame he could devour himself, but that this place was tailor-made for the Heaven Mending Cauldron!

This energy was incredibly potent. If the Heaven Mending Cauldron devoured it, its strength would skyrocket!

"Brother Meng, although the flames here contain origin power, they are very difficult to refine. Moreover, the flames deeper inside are even more terrifying; you must not venture in lightly."

At this moment, a young man stepped forward and said with a smile. It was Dan Haotian, a member of the Alchemy Dao Alliance. His alchemy skill was second only to Cao Feng, and he held a very high status in the alliance.

"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Haotian. I understand," Yang Tian replied with a nod.

"I'll find a place to cultivate now. Ten days is not much time; we must not waste it," Dan Haotian said with a nod.

As his feet touched the ground, the flames in the void pressed down, but Yang Tian felt no heat at all.

Some had already sat down to devour the flames. Unlike Yang Tian, whose body was incredibly resilient, the surrounding flames were intense, and the flames deeper inside were even harder to refine.

At this moment, Yang Tian's gaze fell on the demonic woman. She was already walking deeper inside, moving very quickly.

A flicker of light passed through Yang Tian's eyes, and a trace of killing intent flashed by. He snorted coldly and followed closely behind her.
