Battle Through the Heavens: Clan Leader, I'm sorry, now I just want to be a good person.

The Grand Elder looked at everyone, then flashed into the Black Tower.

Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan waved to Hu Jia and the others in the Pan Gate, and followed the Grand Elder into the Black Tower.

The moment you step into the black tower, the light dims instantly.

The air was thick with a scorching heat.

The group followed the elder in silence.

Only Zi Yan frowned and walked to Xiao Fan's side, muttering, "I don't like the atmosphere inside at all."

Then she nudged Xiao Fan and said, "Also, I've finished the candy beans you made for me. Make me some more when we get out."

"Row!"

Xiao Fan patted Zi Yan's head and agreed.

The others were startled when they saw Xiao Fan rubbing Zi Yan's head, but considering that this wasn't the first time Xiao Fan had done this, and Zi Yan hadn't punished him, they couldn't help but feel a little envious.

The eldest elder at the front, seeing Zi Yan's appearance, became even more interested in Xiao Fan.

After all, there are practically no people who can make Ziyan so polite. It was only because he took Ziyan in that she was able to listen to him. As for other people, Ziyan would not listen to them at all.

Along the way, the Grand Elder led a few people down the winding stairs inside the Black Tower.

The surrounding air gradually became heavier and hotter as the group took their steps.

Moreover, as the group ventured deeper into the area, the surrounding light dimmed further, with only a faint glow remaining on the steps.

If it weren't for the fact that he was the Grand Elder, everyone would have turned around and run away long ago.

After all, such a depressing atmosphere is the most unbearable for people.

Only Xiao Fan remained calm.

This is because when the Eagle Guardian took him to the Black Skull Tomb, its structure was quite similar to this place.

They are all spiral staircases leading deep underground.

The only difference is that the air there is mostly dark, while here it is mostly fire.

After walking for about ten minutes, the group arrived at a spacious area.

Because the stairs they were taking were not the ones used by the students in the Black Tower, no one knew which floor they were on.

The space ahead was incredibly vast, but unlike the training rooms above, this open area was bare and extremely empty.

"Let's go!"

The elder nodded and then led everyone toward the huge black hole in the center.

Seeing the Grand Elder's actions, a hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes.

They stopped when they were about ten meters away from the black hole.

Before them was a round, emerald-green jade stone. In front of them sat two unfamiliar elders, who rarely ventured out, so no one recognized them.

"Everyone, get on!"

The elder pointed to the jade on the ground and addressed the crowd.

Xiao Fan and the others nodded, then sat cross-legged on the jade stone. They immediately felt a cool aura emanating from the jade stone, enveloping their bodies and completely isolating them from the outside heat.

Then the elder looked at everyone and said, "Let's begin."

The two elders nodded and simultaneously performed a set of ingenious hand seals. As they moved, a distorted spatial seal reappeared above the black hole behind them.

"There's a seal here too!"

Looking at the seal in the sky, Xiao Yan knew that the academy valued the seal on the Fallen Heart Flame extremely highly.

As the two elders moved, a hand seal was placed on the seal in the air, and then, under everyone's gaze, a white ball of light the size of a human head emerged from it.

Immediately afterwards, many more white orbs of light appeared; if you counted them carefully, there were exactly nine.
