Situated in the central region of the Holy Luo Continent, this area is a gathering place for all the major top forces. Therefore, even the most powerful Earth Supreme beings must restrain their arrogance when they come to this region, for in these super forces, there are Heavenly Supremes sitting in command, and not just one!
The Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace is located in this central region. With the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace at its center, a vast area of ten thousand miles is under its influence. Countless large and small forces rely on this colossal super force, demonstrating just how powerful the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace is.
Today, the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace is bustling with activity, as today is the day of the Sacred Flame Selection Ceremony. Many young people have come to try their luck. If they can subdue the Sacred Spirit Fire, they can rise to prominence, commanding a super force, which is a great honor!
After leaving the Canglan Continent, Xiao Yan rushed to the Holy Luo Continent, one of the super continents in the Great Thousand World, and finally arrived at the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace in time today.
Standing outside the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace, Xiao Yan gazed at the enormous and magnificent palace ahead, which was entirely enveloped in raging flames. He couldn't help but marvel at the intense heat that made his blood boil.
This feeling was nothing new to Xiao Yan, after all, he possessed the number one on the异火榜 (list of异火, which can be translated as "Abnormal Fires" or "Divine Flames"), the Imperial Flame. This level of heat was nothing to fear for him.
After rubbing his face, Xiao Yan took a step towards the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace. He was extremely eager to see the Sacred Spirit Fire, ranked ninth on the Sacred Flame List, as he knew that subduing one of the top ten Sacred Flames would not be easy, especially with so many competitors.
"Who are you?" The two guards at the palace gate immediately stopped Xiao Yan and said sternly.
"Brothers, I'm here to participate in the Sacred Flame Selection Ceremony," Xiao Yan smiled at the guard in front and handed over over a thousand drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid.
"To participate in the Sacred Flame Selection Ceremony, one must at least have the strength of a peak Ninth Rank Supreme. Young brother, please go back and practice diligently!" The guard's tone softened slightly when he saw the Supreme Spirit Liquid, but he didn't believe that Xiao Yan, who was so young, could possess the strength of a Ninth Rank Supreme, so he advised him to leave.
"Peak Ninth Rank Supreme?" Xiao Yan was also surprised to hear this. He didn't expect the participation requirements for the Sacred Flame Selection Ceremony to be so strict, not only requiring young participants but also peak Ninth Rank Supreme strength. Many people probably wouldn't even qualify.
"Young brother, go back and practice diligently. Don't dream of rising to prominence overnight!"
Seeing Xiao Yan's surprised expression, the guard shook his head, sighed, and patted Xiao Yan's shoulder, speaking earnestly.
He had seen many young men like this, all dreaming of subduing a Sacred Flame and rising to prominence, but such things are not so easy in this world.
Hearing the guard's earnest words, Xiao Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly and didn't bother to explain. Actions always speak louder than words.
Boom!
Then, Xiao Yan took a light step forward, and a terrifying aura erupted like a volcano, overwhelming pressure sweeping out, making the two guards feel their bodies being pressed down, their faces filled with shock.
Xiao Yan then walked straight into the gate of the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace without stopping, his steps firm. At this moment, no one dared to stop him.
The guard who had advised Xiao Yan to leave stared in shock at the black-robed figure, his eyes filled with disbelief, his heart surging with waves of shock.
"This pressure is from an Earth Supreme!"
The guards looked at each other, their eyes still filled with shock, still not having recovered from the scene just now.
Deep within the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace, there is a vast, fiery red pool thousands of feet wide. The pool is filled with boiling magma, emitting a terrifying heat.
This fiery red magma pool is the Sacred Pool of the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace, as it contains the Sacred Spirit Fire, which has been passed down through generations and is the sacred fire in the hearts of the people of the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace.
Only by controlling the Sacred Spirit Fire can one truly command the entire Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace and become its master!
On the shore of the Sacred Pool, thousands of figures gathered. At the front of the crowd stood a woman, her aura extremely terrifying. She stood quietly, yet everyone dared not make a sound, the oppressive feeling making everyone silent.
The woman wore a red robe, her black hair casually tied up. A gentle breeze blew, causing her red robe to flutter and her black hair to dance, revealing her graceful and heroic figure. However, her beautiful face was filled with a cold expression, as if nothing could interest her.
This woman is the Venerable Holy Cloud, the Deputy Palace Master of the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace, in charge of the affairs of the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace. Her strength is undoubtedly that of a Heavenly Supreme, a super powerhouse in the Great Thousand World!
Behind Venerable Holy Cloud stood two white-robed elders, with white hair and beards, giving off a sense of immortality. If one looked closely, one would find that these two were also Heavenly Supremes. The appearance of three Heavenly Supremes at once demonstrated the formidable strength and depth of the Sacred Flame Heavenly Palace!
Behind the three Heavenly Supremes stood thousands of young people, the young generation who had come to participate in the Sacred Flame Selection Ceremony. Most of them were at the peak Ninth Rank Supreme level, and there were no fewer than ten Earth Supremes, which made Xiao Yan secretly marvel.
"Since everyone is here, the Sacred Flame Selection Ceremony will begin immediately!" Venerable Holy Cloud's beautiful eyes swept over the thousands of young figures, and she spoke.
Hearing Venerable Holy Cloud's words, Xiao Yan and the others' eyes immediately lit up, as the ceremony was about to begin.
Venerable Holy Cloud and the two Heavenly Supremes beside her exchanged glances, then their figures soared into the air. Their hand seals changed, and three powerful beams of light instantly shot into the Sacred Pool below.
"Please, Sacred Flame!"
The three of them shouted loudly, their voices filled with powerful spiritual energy, shaking the heavens and the earth. Then, the magma in the Sacred Pool began to boil violently.
Finally, a column of magma several dozen feet high shot up into the sky, like a fiery red pillar. The sight of the magma surging wildly startled Xiao Yan and the others. Under their perception, something seemed to be emerging from the magma, and it was a terrifying presence.
Feeling the temperature of the surrounding world rise sharply, the thousands of young people stared in shock at the Sacred Pool below.
At this moment, Xiao Yan's heart was pounding fiercely, as even the Imperial Flame within his body began to tremble, as if sensing some danger.
This made Xiao Yan's heart tighten. Something that could make the Imperial Flame sense danger must be the Sacred Spirit Fire, ranked ninth on the Sacred Flame List. The top ten Sacred Flames were indeed powerful and terrifying. When he subdued the thirteenth-ranked Taiyin Cold Fire, the Imperial Flame did not react like this.
After the red magma raged for a few minutes, the hand seals of the three figures floating in the sky suddenly changed, and an invisible force swept out. The waves in the center of the Sacred Pool began to surge wildly.
