Chapter 285 Instigation
The red Mahayana remnant soul was now held in the hand of Lu Yuan's system. He had no power to resist and struggled frantically, but found that under the control of the system, he had no possibility of escaping.
Even the remnant soul of the Mahayana period could not understand the existence of the system. He didn't understand why this kid's cultivation was average, but there was such a powerful existence within his soul, as if an ultimate superior was controlling everything.
Could it be that this guy's original body came from the upper realm? Is he just a clone? This is very possible.
Unable to break free at this moment, the remnant soul of the Mahayana stage began to beg for mercy.
"Fellow Daoist, no, Senior! I admit defeat. I lost this round, but I beg you to spare my life because I have a great grudge to avenge! As long as you are willing to spare me, I can give you the inheritance I left behind in this fairy palace. How do you think?"
Lu Yuan: "Okay, but there is a problem now. After I kill you, everything in this palace will still be mine."
When Venerable Tianhuo heard this, his face turned ugly in an instant. Lu Yuan was right. He was indeed not qualified to negotiate with him now, but he still wanted to buy himself a chance of survival, so he said.
"If you don't want to kill me, I am willing to give you the two sets of skills I just mentioned. Besides that, I can help you with other things! I just want to stay alive."
Lu Yuan looked at the Skyfire Venerable in front of him. This guy was a ninth-rank alchemist in his previous life. To be honest, his identity, abilities and other conditions were indeed good. Although their first meeting was a bit unpleasant, if he could be accepted into the sect, he would indeed be a good assistant.
Just like Yao Xuan, the Daluo Sect is currently refining some mid- and low-end spiritual medicines, but one day it will grow into a behemoth.
At that time, we will not only focus on the mid- and low-end markets, but will also start to seize the high-end market share. By that time, ordinary alchemists will seem a little inadequate, and we will still need a group of high-quality alchemists to take charge.
Yao Xuan would naturally be one of them, but it would definitely not be enough to just choose one. This Skyfire Alchemist is one level higher than Yao Xuan, so he could give it a try.
Of course, considering that this guy has some evil intentions, Lu Yuan is still a little wary of him.
Lu Yuan: "Let me ask you, is the strange fire in the Twin Emperors Ridge a trap set by you? What is your purpose? To attract people to this Stone Tablet Heritage Palace and then devour them?"
The Skyfire Remnant Soul said with a complicated expression: "This matter is a long story. Actually, this is what I thought at first..."
Tianhuo told his own story. He was harmed by a villain and his Mahayana cultivation became a wedding dress for others. His enemy ascended to heaven, but he died here instead.
Of course he was unwilling to accept his imminent death, so he made a lot of plans. The first one was naturally to refine a ninth-grade elixir. As long as the ninth-grade elixir was successfully refined, he could restore his body and soul.
Even if his cultivation cannot return to its peak, he can rebuild it as long as he is given time. This is the safest and best method.
It's just a pity that the ninth-grade elixir requires too much energy and strength. Tianhuo can indeed refine the ninth-grade elixir when he is in the best condition, but his condition was too poor at that time, and the success rate of refining the ninth-grade elixir was almost zero.
Therefore, even though he put all his strength into refining this ninth-grade elixir, he failed to succeed. He only completed 70% of it before he was exhausted.
The path of the ninth-grade elixir was blocked, so he set up another trap. Before he died, he cut off a part of his soul and rushed out of the Twin Emperors Ridge, possessed the body of a cultivator, and began to spread the news that there was a Mahayana inheritance under the Twin Emperors Ridge throughout Dongzhou.
However, because a great battle between Mahayana monks had just taken place at Shuangdi Ridge, the space on all sides of the place was collapsed and the order was still being rebuilt. Many monks at that time did not dare to enter because they would be strangled by the void fragments if they approached this place.
As for some people with high cultivation bases who had combined to overcome tribulation, they had also come to check it out. However, the Heavenly Fire at that time did not want to leave behind a legacy, but wanted to attract people to come and take over their bodies, devour their cultivation bases and energy as nutrients to repair themselves.
So when some monks with extremely high cultivation came to check, he hid his stone tablet. Even those high-level monks did not find him when they came in. Venerable Tianhuo had been waiting here for a monk suitable for him to possess, but so many years had passed and no one came.
Later, an accident happened again. After the death of Skyfire Venerable, the two remnants of the strange fire in his body escaped, and devoured the residual energy left by the battle between the Mahayana cultivators in the Twin Emperor Ridge to strengthen themselves, gradually strengthening their origin and becoming stronger. Now they have grown to an extremely terrifying level.
So the Skyfire Venerable finally changed his target. He gradually set his sights on the two escaped strange fires. Now, the two strange fires had grown to a certain extent. As long as he could devour the two strange fires, relying on absorbing the energy of the strange fires would actually help him reshape his body and his soul.
So he promoted the fight between the two strange fires. He deliberately released his own inheritance to let the two strange fires that had already developed their own intelligence discover that the inheritance and Mahayana body of their previous Mahayana master were still preserved under the canyon.
If they could obtain the physical body of a Mahayana cultivator, it would save them tens of thousands of years of hard training. After all, it is too difficult for the strange fire to cultivate a physical body. Although they are already very strong now, they are not too strong. Even if they burn their origin, their real combat power is actually around the peak of the Void Refinement Realm.
If two strange fires join forces, they can indeed fight against the combined power, but in fact, neither of them alone has the capital to compete with a combined cultivator.

These two strange fires also know how precious they are. If there really are cultivators in the fusion realm with malicious intentions towards them, their situation will be very troublesome. Once they are captured by humans, their spiritual intelligence will be wiped out again.
Therefore, the two groups of strange fire both want to obtain the Mahayana body and inheritance of their former master. As long as they get the Mahayana body, even if they cannot restore their master's strongest cultivation level during his lifetime, the Mahayana body and inheritance plus their own strength can easily resist the combined forces, and they can also fight against the tribulation.
The two balls of strange fire gradually became greedy, so they began to fight and devour each other, because the condition given by the Skyfire Venerable was that whoever of the two strange fires could devour the other would obtain his inheritance.
This is also the reason why these two balls of strange fire would burn and devour each other's essence. Lu Yuan now understood that it turned out that it was the old thing Tianhuo who instigated them.
