Zhan Jie de Nan Hai

Chapter 720 Divine Venerable

When the time was ripe, Lu Fan, controlling the White Lotus Sacred Fire, instantly condensed his aura to its peak.

A dragon's roar echoed throughout the Sixfold Fire Domain.

"Success!"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion showed delight, looking towards the sixth layer of the fire domain. He could never have imagined that Lu Fan would successfully absorb the Green Lotus Sacred Fire, and he knew precisely what that meant.

"Pavilion Master, he truly succeeded!"

The Grand Elder was incredulous and shocked. Even the Pavilion Master had not accomplished what Lu Fan had. How could they not be excited?

"Congratulations, you have finally succeeded!"

Old Man Hong Meng smiled, "You have now broken through to Spirit Emperor. Even those outside may not be able to block your path!"

"I have to thank you, old man,"

Lu Fan smiled, "If you hadn't guided me all the way, I wouldn't have become a Spirit Emperor so quickly!"

"Don't get sentimental, boy. I helped you for my own reasons,"

Old Man Hong Meng's expression was indifferent, and his words were blunt. However, Lu Fan was unfazed.

Although the old man spoke like this, Lu Fan knew that Old Man Hong Meng had spared no effort in helping him all along, or he wouldn't have survived until now.

Lu Fan slowly circulated his flame power. Suddenly, a green and white flame power circulated, carrying supreme might. Even Lu Fan felt a sense of dread towards this green and white flame.

"After the fusion of the two sacred fires, the power is more than ten times stronger than before!" Old Man Hong Meng stated directly, "With these two sacred fires in hand, even the Eighth Prince's Mansion may not be able to do anything to you!"

"Eighth Prince's Mansion?"

Lu Fan's eyes deepened, filled with great animosity. If it weren't for the Eighth Prince's Mansion, the North Sea Academy would not have been destroyed. Lu Fan remembered this clearly.

With agile steps, Lu Fan walked directly out of the Sixfold Fire Domain and arrived outside the fire domain.

Just as he had expected, the area outside the fire domain was filled with experts from the Heavenly Fire Pavilion.

But Lu Fan was unfazed. Apart from the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, who posed a threat to him, the other elders were of no use in his eyes.

"Did you really absorb the Green Lotus Sacred Fire?"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion stepped forward, his expression grave as he reached Lu Fan. This matter concerned the future of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, and he dared not be careless.

"Yes, I have absorbed the Green Lotus Sacred Fire!"

Lu Fan nodded, "It is unlikely you can take back the Green Lotus Sacred Fire now!"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion was overjoyed and even bowed slightly to Lu Fan, "Your subordinate greets you, my lord!"

Following the Pavilion Master's bow, the other members of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion also bowed, not daring to delay. If even their Pavilion Master was like this, how could they dare to be presumptuous?

"Why is this?"

Lu Fan was bewildered. He had expected a fierce battle, but now he was somewhat confused.

"According to the ancestral teachings of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, whoever can absorb the Green Lotus Sacred Fire can become the person in charge of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion!"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion cupped his fists, "Please do not refuse, my lord!"

"Person in charge of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion?"

Lu Fan was slightly taken aback, "Does this mean that from now on, the people of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion will obey my orders?"

"That's right, as long as you are willing, you can mobilize the people of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion at any time!"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion quickly nodded, "My lord, having absorbed the Green Lotus Sacred Fire, you will surely reach the pinnacle. We would never dare to violate the ancestral teachings."

"This is excellent!"

Lu Fan nodded slightly, "I have offended the Eighth Prince's Mansion. Is the Heavenly Fire Pavilion willing to join me?"

"Eighth Prince's Mansion?"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion was slightly startled. He had not expected Lu Fan to have such an enemy.

"What, are you afraid?"

Lu Fan smiled, staring directly at the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion. These people had just pledged allegiance to him for the sake of future glory.

"Since he is your enemy, he is the enemy of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion!"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion cupped his fists, "However, the Eighth Prince's Mansion is powerful. If you truly intend to oppose them, you must have a plan!"

"In other words, you are willing to face the enemy with me?"

Lu Fan was slightly surprised. He had not expected the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion to speak like this.

The Eighth Prince's Mansion must be a terrifying existence within the White Dragon Dynasty. The Heavenly Fire Pavilion did not seem to be this way.

After all, he had no kindness towards the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, and he had even stolen the Green Lotus Sacred Fire from them.

"Of course, we are willing!"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion nodded, "The ancestral teachings of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion state that whoever controls the Green Lotus Sacred Fire controls the Heavenly Fire Pavilion!"

"It seems I misunderstood you!"

Lu Fan nodded, "Rest assured, I will not trouble the Heavenly Fire Pavilion with my own affairs!"

Lu Fan turned to leave, unwilling to get entangled further. He was preparing to investigate the Eighth Prince's Mansion.

"My lord, you control the Green Lotus Sacred Fire, which means you control the Heavenly Fire Pavilion!" the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion said repeatedly, "No matter what you are doing, it is related to the Heavenly Fire Pavilion!"

"Lu, boy, this is a force sent to you, don't waste it!"

Old Man Hong Meng spoke, "If you take over the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, it will not be difficult to deal with the Eighth Prince's Mansion in the future!"

"But I have no affection for them, how can I make them fight for me!" Lu Fan frowned.

"Since they are willing, why are you being so polite!" Old Man Hong Meng smiled, "You may not know, but if you refuse and leave now, you will surely cause unnecessary trouble!"

Lu Fan froze, looking at the people before him with a hint of helplessness. According to Old Man Hong Meng, he could only agree now, otherwise, leaving would not be so easy.

"Alright, since you want me to be the person in charge of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, I will grant your wish!"

Lu Fan's aura was imposing, carrying a kingly presence.

"We greet you, my lord!"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion and the others cupped their fists, their expressions solemn. Now that Lu Fan was in charge of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion, he naturally dared not say more.

"From this day forward, above the Pavilion Master, there is the Divine Venerable!"

The Grand Elder spoke, "Everything will be according to the ancestral teachings of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion!"

The crowd nodded in agreement with the Grand Elder's words, not daring to utter a single word of dissent.

At this moment, many outer disciples in the distance exclaimed, never imagining that a disciple from the first level alchemy room would become the Divine Venerable of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion.

Returning to the Heavenly Fire Pavilion and looking at the lifeless structure, Lu Fan's palm suddenly ignited with sacred fire. Instantly, a surge of flame power permeated the surroundings, several times stronger than the flames of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion before.

"What powerful flame energy!"

The elders exclaimed with joy. They cultivated fire-elemental techniques, and the hotter the flame, the more benefits they received.

"Thank you, Divine Venerable, for bestowing the fire!"

The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fire Pavilion quickly cupped his fists. It was indeed as the ancestral teachings foretold: whoever possessed the Green Lotus Sacred Fire would lead the Heavenly Fire Pavilion to its peak.
