refining various artifacts, demonic beasts couldn't craft similar items. However, they had their own unique methods, and Green Shadow Snake Fire was one of the standout attack methods of snake python...Originally, Lu Xiaotian was hard-pressed to find the flaw in the Dan furnace under the interference of the Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha. When Lu Xiaotian felt somewhat helpless for a while, a heart-stirring sound of qin reverberated through the void.

Lu Xia Tian's heart skipped a beat, though it was only for a brief moment, Lu Xia Tian still caught it.

"How is it" The aged dragon shadow glanced at Lu Xia Tian.

“Found it.” Lu Xia Tian nodded. “Senior, please leave with me.”

“I can’t go. The Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha is not so easy to deal with, and there are still some dragon souls left. Take them if you can. I was born for the esoteric Buddhist sect. Even if I vanish here, I have lived for many years. There's nothing to regret. Originally, I planned to put my dragon soul power into your celestial painting halberd, but things change. Take this.” The aged dragon shadow opened its mouth, and an octagonal dragon-patterned soul crystal flew out of its mouth toward Lu Xia Tian.

“Well then.” Lu Xia Tian nodded. Right now, he could escape from this alchemy furnace controlled by the Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha thanks to the aged dragon shadow's efforts. And the aged dragon shadow giving him the Dragon Soul Spirit Crystal also meant that time was running out for it. Otherwise, if Lu Xia Tian wanted to escape, he would likely have to release the Black Dragon Dragon Pearl. This would naturally create more unpredictable variables.

Lu Xiaotian beckoned the Fang Tian painting halberd, slashing towards the emptiness in the direction where the celestial demon's qin music had come from earlier. Although he couldn't easily use spatial power within this cauldron, with his eyesight, he had just seen the celestial demon's qin music break through Ran Yun Gufo's obstruction from the outside world. Even though Lu Xiaotian couldn't use spatial power to deal with Ran Yun Gufo within this cauldron, he could easily pinpoint the location where the celestial demon's qin music entered by relying on this exposed flaw, even if Ran Yun Gufo used some means to cover it up.

Lu Xia Tian alone could naturally not match the opponent's strength, but what this Ran Yun Ancient Buddha faced was not just Lu Xia Tian. After all, the opponent was not his true self here. He was able to continue until now by relying on this inheritance alchemy furnace, and he had already cultivated the Magic Dragon Compassion Flame. This was extremely accomplished, and it was impossible to maintain the strength of his peak period. As for how much he had been weakened, Lu Xia Tian had never truly fought with the opponent from beginning to end, so how could he know the opponent's details

Ran Yun Ancient Buddha naturally wouldn't let Lu Xiaitian leave easily, but the aged dragon shadow was no longer concerned with gain or loss. Assisted by countless Dragon Souls, he could withstand Ran Yun Ancient Buddha for a long time even though it wasn't easy to win against him in a prolonged battle. However, blocking him for a short period of time wasn't a problem.

Lu Xia Tian's single strike broke through the barrier of the pill furnace, smoother than he had imagined. Perhaps seeing that it was impossible to stop Lu Xia Tian any longer, Ruyan Ancient Buddha gave up on some meaningless actions.

“For a mere junior dragon, you gave him your Dragon Vein Soul Crystal. You are truly magnanimous, fellow cultivator.” Nine Demon Dragons of Great Compassion Flame merged into one, and the figure of the ancient Buddha burning within became even clearer.

“He was able to subdue the Dragon Pool and many dragon souls within it with his own power, and has already gained the recognition of the entire Dragon Clan. I am old and frail, and can no longer bear too much responsibility. This young man, though not a descendant of my Jin clan, is capable of carrying more.”

The ancient dragon, upon hearing this, chuckled. "Indeed it's the Ancient Buddha of Burning Clouds, not only combining the Dragon Clan's techniques but also utilizing the pure demonic energy from the Heavenly Demon Qin and his own cultivation to form a single entity, refining the method of the Demonic Dragon Great Compassion Flame is truly remarkable. It seems the Ancient Buddha of Burning Clouds has no desire for the Immortal Realm"

"If the Immortal Realm can accommodate us, we will stay. But if it cannot, after all these years of planning, entering the Demon Realm is not an impossible option." Ran Yun Ancient Buddha did not deny this. "Since the Immortal Realm cannot accommodate the esoteric Buddhist sect, there is a vast world beyond. The esoteric Buddhist sect will naturally find a place to reside."

"You have fallen into a demonic path. Even if you go to the demon realm and rebuild your power, it may not be the same as the former secret Buddhist sect. Even if the previous reincarnation of the Dharma King returns, they may not agree with the path you have chosen." The aged dragon's shadow shook its head.

"Rebirth Dharma King Whether or not it will be smooth to awaken past cultivation is still hard to say. Having entered the Demon Realm, there naturally has to be a way to survive in the Demon Realm."

"A thousand transformations, unconcerned with any situation. Back then, the esoteric Buddhist sect accepted the dragon clan as a means of self-preservation. The same is true now that we enter the Demon Realm."

"Your first priority should be self-preservation. To resort to any means necessary is no different from dealing with demons. The decline of the Esoteric Buddhism wasn't due to a lack of strength, but rather ideological conflicts. The disagreements between the Reincarnated Dharma King and several ancient Buddhas led to a split, creating opportunities for outside forces to exploit them. Otherwise, they might not have fallen so far. You, entering the demonic path with a Buddha's body, are unlikely to gain the Reincarnated Dharma King's approval. In my view, the power of Esoteric Buddhism will only further weaken until it finally disintegrates completely. I am about to fade away. You cannot persuade me, and I cannot sway you. Let time be the judge."The aged dragon shadow did not approve of Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha's words.

Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha's brow furrowed slightly. Although the aged Dragon Shadow hadn't persuaded him, Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha wasn't sure if he and the reincarnation of the Dharma King would ever be able to get along. The aged Dragon Shadow in front of him still had some of the remaining dragon souls, whose energy was dwindling and dispersing one by one. Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha seemed to come back to his senses, waving his sleeve. The aged Dragon Shadow and the dissipating aura of the dragon souls weren't directly dissipated but sent by Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha into a cauldron. With the completion of the Demonic Dragon Great Compassion Flame, these unconscious dragon souls still held some use for Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha.

At this time, Lu Xia Tian passed through the obstruction of the Dan Furnace and got outside. In contrast, the excitement outside was no less than inside the Dan Furnace.

At this time, the surging demonic sound from the Heavenly Demon Qin and the Yan Ji's attacks fell upon the alchemy furnace one after another. The light and shadow monk on top of the alchemy furnace was also Burning Cloud Ancient Buddha. While he was preventing the aged dragon shadow, he was also dealing with the attacks from outside, and he might even have to take care of Hao Qingyao, Di Niaomopeng, and even the Underworld Immortal Army that had already entered this area, in addition to the restrictions.

“You actually came out of there unharmed” The enchantress flicked her wings, and demonic energy slashed like a blade at the cauldron in the distance, producing a piercing clash. Even with her vast experience, Yan Ji couldn’t help but find Lu Xiaoteng’s appearance strange – he hadn’t suffered even a scratch.

At this time, in the empty space, a ancient qin resembling sandalwood appeared, radiating brilliance in all directions. Its strings vibrated on their own, and as it faced the inherited cauldron of the great Dan furnace, several notes fell upon the surrounding restrictions. Under the attack of the Heaven Demon Qilin, these restrictions constantly showed a sliver of gap, revealing the boundary demon orbs, Emperor Xiaomopeng looming in and out, and countless groups of Ming Luo fairy armies beyond the gap.the Iron-Spined Back Demon Beast, Lu Xia Tian had already met many other Nascent Soul cultivators, but he had never personally experienced their methods. He had only escaped from the Xuan Yan Ghost Ki...
