Chapter 71: Subduing the Fallen Heart me!
?
After setting up the seal, Gu Fei walked into the tower at a slow pace under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Although the Heart me was forming in his heart, it did not affect him in the slightest.
Su Qian, the Grand Elder of the Inner Academy, followed closely behind Gu Fei, still harboring a trace of concern in his eyes.

Next, Gu Fei descendedyer byyer, with only Su Qian following behind. The sound of their footsteps echoed in the empty tower.
Before long, the two of them reached the center of the final floor of the zing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
Here, just like the previous floors, there was a ck hole connected to the next level.
However, the ck hole on this final floor led to the very bottom of the tower.
Above this ck hole, there was a noticeable spatial fluctuation. It was this seal that had kept the Fallen Heart me suppressed.
"Break!"
Gu Fei softly shouted, raising his arm. A strange beam of light shot out from his fingertip and struck the spatial seal.
The air trembled violently for a moment, and as the dust settled, the seal had been broken.
This seal, which had been strong enough to withstand the Fallen Heart me''s onught for years, was now easily shattered by Gu Fei.
Su Qian feels surprised. Emotional Value +30
Su Qian once again updated his understanding of Gu Fei''s strength.
With the seal broken, the sensation of the Heart me instantly intensified.
The temperature of the air rapidly increased, bing much hotter.
Visibly, the air began to distort.
Suddenly, the once calm energy in the area boiled over like water, with muffled sounds faintly heard.
Su Qian feels suspicious. Emotional Value +30
Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from the bottom of the tower, Su Qian''s eyes shed with suspicion once again.
He wasn''t doubting Gu Fei''s strength but rather that the Fallen Heart me was truly fearsome.
"Senior, are you really confident in subduing the Fallen Heart me?"
"If we release this thing, with the hatred it harbors toward our Inner Academy, it will destroy us all."
Su Qian asked solemnly, his brows furrowed.
Though things had reached this point, they still had time to retreat.
With Gu Fei''s strength, resealing this ce would still hold for a long time.
However, havinge this far, Gu Fei wouldn''t be satisfied with retreating out of fear.
"Subduing a mere Fallen Heart me is no big deal. Just watch."
Gu Fei responded with a dismissive smile, his tone seemingly arrogant, but Su Qian could sense the confidence in his voice.
That kind of confidence stemmed from his strength.
Without further ado, Gu Fei immediately shed into the ck hole.

After Gu Fei descended a certain distance, the previously pitch-ck depths of the hole began to reveal some scenery.
It was a vast sea of magma.
However, the magma here was distinctly dark red, much darker than ordinary magma, as if it were mixed with countless drops of blood. The entire sea of magma exuded an eerie color.
Gu Fei''s figure hovered above the sea of magma, his gaze suddenly focusing on a certain spot. There, a violent and overwhelming energy was slowly emerging from the depths of the magma.
As this violent energy surged, the tranquility of the magma world was shattered.
A fierce wind seemed to arise from nowhere, whipping the magma into towering waves of fiery color that crashed down heavily.
The ensuing roar was like the copse of mountains and the splitting of the earth!
"Fallen Heart me,e out!"
Though themotion was great, it was nothing to Gu Fei.
His expression remained calm as he shouted downward.
"Whoosh!"
As Gu Fei''s voice fell, the surface of the magma erupted in waves.
From within the erupting magma, a massive, nearly transparent fire python with a head the size of a small mountain, covered in invisible mes, broke through the surface. It carried with it a terrifying energy that caused the space around it to tremble as it appeared before Gu
Fei.
"Hiss!"
The gigantic, transparent fire python, as if it had been imprisoned for millennia, raised its enormous head.
A sharp sonic wave rapidly spread out, and with its expansion, the magma world seemed to be hit by countless bombs. Deep rumbling sounds echoed continuously, magma shot into the air, and mes spewed in all directions.
After a nearly frenzied outburst, the massive transparent fire python suddenly sensed the gaze from above. It abruptly lifted its colossal head, and its triangr pupils, burning with invisible mes, locked onto the figure of a young man standing in the sky above the sea.
"Kill me, and you can escape from here!"
Seeing the fire python''s gaze, Gu Fei smiled and spoke casually.
Fallen Heart me feels angry. Emotional Value +20
Having been suppressed here for many years, the Fallen Heart me had already developed
some intelligence and harbored deep resentment towards all humans.
It red furiously at this audacious youth who dared to provoke it.
Determined to ensure that Gu Fei would never leave this magma pit alive.
"Hiss!"
In the next moment, the massive head of the transparent fire python shot out a pir of fire.
Gu Fei''s figure moved quickly, closing in on the invisible fire python whileunching a massive fire pir from his palm to meet it.
As the two energies collided, the zing Sky Qi Refining Tower trembled under the impact.
"Has it begun?"
Outside, many students and elders sensed the powerful shockwave.
The shockwave was so terrifying that many people turned pale.
All the elders raised their hands simultaneously, forming a protective barrier around all the
Inner Academy students.
At the bottom of the tower, above the magma sea.
After one sh, Gu Fei''s breathing remained steady, clearly holding the upper hand.
He didn''t use any words to provoke the Fallen Heart me; instead, mes ignited in his
eyes.
If it wants to fight, then let it fight!
This invisible fire python was indeed troublesome, but it was nothing for him.
Since it''s hiding, I''ll make my attacks cover every corner, and let''s see where it can escape to!
Vast amounts of Dou Qi surged towards the ground, causing the magma to explode, sttering red mes. The sound of wails could be heard asionally.
This overwhelming advantage allowed Gu Fei to effortlessly capture the fire python''s spirit,
finally subduing it.
The fire spirit let out onest wail before ceasing to struggle in Gu Fei''s hands.
The magma at the bottom fell silent.
In just a minute or two, the invisible fire python was subdued.
Gu Fei then began refining the Fallen Heart me.
The intense mes burned fiercely but were easily refined by Gu Fei.
The fire gradually merged into his body without any turbulence.
Now, Gu Fei had already refined two types of Heavenly mes, and the final fusion of mes
was naturally stronger than the Fallen Heart me. Therefore, the refining process wasn''t
difficult.
After refining the Fallen Heart me, Gu Fei opened his eyes and continued to gaze at the
magma sea.
He had previously mentionedpensating the Inner Academy.
Thus, he decided to descend into the magma sea to retrieve the Fallen Heart me''s infant
form from beside Yao Tian Huo''s corpse, as described in the original story, and hand it over to
the Inner Academy.
This way, the Inner Academy would not gradually lose its unique characteristics due to the absence of the Fallen Heart me; instead, it would be even better.
Because the previous Fallen Heart me was extremely violent, it would asionally erupt, and its hatred-filled nature made it want to destroy the entire Inner Academy.
But the infant Fallen Heart me, raised and nurtured by the Inner Academy from a young age, would eventually treat the Inner Academy as its home and protect it.
