On the Blazing Flame Pool, everyone tried their best to collect the wisps of flames that rose from the surface of the hot pool from time to time.
Some people would eventually succeed, but even more people would always fail. It was too difficult to collect the flames, so much so that the faces of many disciples became more and more unsightly.
After all, the total time of the advancement test was only three hours.
At the same time, in a corner of the Blazing Flame Pool that had been deliberately ignored, Yan Chutian was still slowly condensing a spiritual energy handprint, and then reaching into the Blazing Flame Pool.
It was just an attempt, but the result was that the spiritual energy handprint was quickly annihilated under the flames that were hot enough to burn space.
In this place, the most the Spiritual Energy Hand Seal could touch was a wisp of flame.
This kind of situation happened too often, and no one would pay attention to him, so no one would know. After another failure, Yan Chutian's palm under his robe had already slowly formed a wisp of flame.
Just like before, he slowly withdrew the wisp of flame. Then, Yan Chutian's face that no one could see couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.
So far, he had collected nine wisps of flames. If he collected one more, he would be able to collect the ten wisps of flames needed to ascend the Promotion Peak.
He didn't know if anyone had already collected ten wisps of flames before he entered the Blazing Flame Pool. But at least after his arrival, he should be the first person to collect ten wisps of flames.
In this way, he could at least guarantee that he would be able to ascend the Promotion Peak before the end of the test.
Thinking of this, Yan Chutian panted for a moment, then impatiently formed a spiritual energy handprint. While secretly pouring Xuanyang Qi into it, he once again sent the spiritual energy handprint into the Blazing Flame Pool.
"Chi …!"
When the spiritual energy handprint approached a wisp of flame, an ear-piercing sizzling sound rang out continuously.
It was the spiritual energy on the handprint that was rapidly being burned by the flames of the Blazing Flame Pool.
What happened next was the same as before. Even though Yan Chutian's Spiritual Energy handprint could hold on for a moment, it was still burned away by the flames.
In the end, the Spiritual Energy Handprint completely disappeared. It was obvious that Yan Chutian's attempt had failed.
However, they did not know that it was precisely this seemingly stupid and useless action that caused another wisp of flame to appear under Yan Chutian's sleeve.
Including this one, Yan Chutian had already collected ten wisps of fire!
Yan Chutian was secretly delighted that he had finally obtained the tenth flame. However, at the same time, he did not show the slightest bit of emotion on his face. Instead, he maintained his usual indifferent expression, and even deliberately revealed a depressed expression.
Following that, he didn't leave rashly. Instead, he pretended to do something useless. Then, he quietly left the place before the crowd had the time to notice.
For a living person like Yan Chutian to leave, it was naturally impossible for no one to notice. However, in their eyes, the other party knew that he had no hope of collecting the ten wisps of fire, so he left.
It was not as if there were no other people who left like him, so why would they care?
Yan Chutian quickly left the Blazing Flame Pool until he was completely out of sight of the crowd. Only then did he finally change his direction. Then, with a tap of his foot, he quickly headed deeper into the mountain range.
Deeper into the mountain range, which was also where the final promotion peak was located!
Because of the pleasant surprise in his heart, Yan Chutian didn't notice that when he was moving, there was already an indiscernible figure following his footsteps in the dark.
However, after the pleasant surprise, Yan Chutian gradually regained his senses. After regaining his senses, his senses were extremely sharp. Almost in the blink of an eye, he detected the shadow in the dark.
This made Yan Chutian feel that something was not right. He was not a fool. It was definitely not a coincidence that someone suddenly had their eyes on him at this time.
Therefore, it was very likely that the other party had their eyes on him at the Blazing Flame Pool. No matter how well he hid it, it was inevitable that no one would suspect him.
Knowing that someone was following him, Yan Chutian naturally would not foolishly approach the promotion peak. Otherwise, if he directly attacked before the promotion peak, it was hard to guarantee that those who sensed him would not feel suspicious and immediately approach him.
If that was really the case, Yan Chutian had no confidence that he could protect his ten wisps of fire in the hands of so many people.
The only choice was to directly defeat the other party before he approached the promotion peak. Then, before anyone felt suspicious, he would directly rush to the promotion peak.
With that thought, although Yan Chutian did not stop, he also secretly reduced his speed. Then, he pretended to be suspicious and secretly set up the Great Thousand Slaughtering Spirit Formation.
The other party did not take the initiative to appear, so this was still his time. Even if he had the support of the formation materials, he could not guarantee that he could set up the formation during the battle with the other party.
Therefore, with such precious time, how could he miss it? Naturally, he had to set up as much as he could.
However, the other party was obviously not a stupid person. At the beginning, he did not notice anything. However, he quickly realized that Yan Chutian was clearly stalling for time.
And with Qin Hao as an example, how could he not know why Yan Chutian was stalling for time?
Therefore, in the next instant, a huge Spiritual Energy palm print appeared out of thin air and directly slammed towards Yan Chutian.
Such a strong force, even if it suddenly appeared, was enough to slap a Yuanying Level Eight cultivator half to death.
However, Yan Chutian naturally would not be caught off guard. In the instant that the Spiritual Energy palm print slammed towards him, he had already tiptoed lightly. His body was like a ghost as he directly dodged it.
As for that Spiritual Energy palm print, it could only heavily slam into the ground below. When a deafening boom sounded out, the ground was already in a mess, with sand and stones flying everywhere.
"Haha … as expected, you have already noticed it. Since that is the case, I will not hide anymore."
Faint laughter suddenly sounded out between heaven and earth. Immediately after, Yan Chutian could see a figure suddenly appear from the darkness and descend on the ground.
Looking at the silver-armored youth who suddenly appeared, Yan Chutian's heart turned solemn. This was because he could sense that this silver-armored youth had already stepped into Yuanying Level Nine.
Furthermore, the strands of dangerous aura that spread out were several times more intense than Qin Hao's.
It was likely that this silver armored young man was one of the bosses with an even greater reputation than that Qin Hao.
"May I know why you have stopped me?"
Although her heart was solemn, Yan Chutian's expression remained as calm as ever. At the same time, as he spoke, he did not stop secretly. The Great Thousand Spirit-Slaughtering Array was still gradually unfolding.
Hearing this, the silver-armored youth smiled faintly and was about to open his mouth to answer.
However, at this moment, an extremely dangerous premonition suddenly emerged in Yan Chutian's heart.
After experiencing too many life and death situations, Yan Chutian knew that this premonition was definitely not wrong. Therefore, even though the Great Thousand Spirit-Slaughtering Array was not completed, he could only stop and immediately dodge.
"Boom …!"
The moment Yan Chutian dodged, an invisible sharp wind brushed past his body and landed.
Suddenly, a majestic roar resounded. At the same time, one could see that a short mountain below had been forcefully torn apart. The topmost part had completely turned into dust and disappeared.
Only at this moment did the silver-armored young man's unhurried laughter finally continue to ring out.
"Junior Brother Yan, it's not good to play tricks in the dark when you are talking to someone."
Hearing this, how could Yan Chutian not understand that the other party was referring to him secretly setting up the array?
This made Yan Chutian's face turn slightly ugly. This was because he did not expect the other party's perception to be so sharp.
At the same time, the silver-armored youth did not seem to notice Yan Chutian's expression and continued to speak slowly.
"Junior Brother Yan, regardless of whether you know me or not, I will introduce myself here."
"My name is Tie Xuan, and I am considered the most senior among the iron token disciples."
"Therefore, if possible, I would like to take advantage of this opportunity to be promoted to a bronze token disciple."
At this point, the silver-armored youth, who was Tie Xuan, looked at Yan Chutian's body and smiled strangely. "Thinking about it, to be able to appear here, you must have gathered enough flames on your body."
"Therefore, I wonder if I can borrow a few flames from you?"
