In the distance.
Bruhe Gula and his group watched Ao Yuan's actions, and they were all going crazy.
Their worldview had been flipped upside down so many times in such a short period that they didn't know what it had become.
Ao Yuan was truly defying the heavens!
It was one thing that he could perfectly resist the tribulation lightning before, letting it lash at him without moving like a mountain.
Now, he was swallowing heavenly fire, and he seemed to be fine.
This was truly terrifying!
At least they had lived for quite some time, but they had never seen anyone like Ao Yuan.
"If he can last until the end, he can truly break through!"
Bruhe Gula gritted his teeth, analyzing each word.
"Are we witnessing the birth of a miracle?" the succubus asked dazedly.
The others shivered upon hearing this, and none of them felt happy.
Indeed, if Ao Yuan could break through now.
Then they would be the ones to witness the birth of a miracle.
But behind this miracle was Ao Yuan enduring the heavenly tribulation.
If Ao Yuan endured it, then they would face the most tragic blow!
If they had been confident before that they could escape from Ao Yuan and secure a glimmer of hope.
Then, seeing Ao Yuan swallow heavenly fire, and only let out painful cries without being reduced to ashes by the heavenly fire, they had abandoned this thought.
Could they really escape from such a powerful being?
It was very, very difficult.
Perhaps it was possible.
But even if they could escape, what then?
Would Ao Yuan not hunt them down?
They could escape once or twice, but if this continued for a long time, could they truly escape?
The final answer was obvious.
They couldn't!
Unless they surpassed Ao Yuan, but was he that easy to surpass?
Perhaps with their entire lives, they still wouldn't be able to surpass him.
At this moment!
In the sky.
The remaining heavenly fire continued to pour down.
But as time passed, Ao Yuan's painful cries had diminished considerably.
This was not because Ao Yuan was failing.
On the contrary!
He was close to enduring it!
At this moment!
Under the onslaught of heavenly fire, Ao Yuan paid no attention.
He fully mobilized his Dragon Flame and Weak Water to rage within his body.
And it truly had a significant effect.
With the mutual enhancement of Dragon Flame and Weak Water, the heavenly fire raging within Ao Yuan's body had been somewhat reduced.
Moreover, Ao Yuan sensed that his Dragon Flame was undergoing some kind of change.
He couldn't quite explain this change.
But he could feel that the Dragon Flame was becoming more manageable, and the power it could unleash had become stronger.
It also contained traces of the oppressive aura of heavenly fire.
It was as if the Dragon Flame was merging with the heavenly fire.
Naturally, although the situation was improving, it was still a torment for Ao Yuan.
At this moment, under the tempering of heavenly fire.
Ao Yuan didn't feel like he was undergoing tribulation; instead, he felt like he was enduring some kind of severe punishment.
"I must endure it!"
Ao Yuan took a deep breath and muttered to himself in his heart, "As long as I can endure it, I might truly be able to elevate the quality of my Dragon Flame!"
"We can't go on like this anymore!"
Suddenly, Bruhe Gula let out a light cry.
He first glanced at Ao Yuan, then looked at the people beside him and said, "The heavenly tribulation is about to dissipate."
"The moment the heavenly tribulation dissipates is our opportunity; we must strike Ao Yuan then!"
"Otherwise, we will only face a dead end!"
After waiting for a while and hearing no one respond, Bruhe Gula's expression grew more solemn, and he coldly said, "Of course, you can stick to your previous ideas."
"But I want to say that I understand Ao Yuan; if he recovers, he will definitely not let you go."
"Think carefully about what you want to do next!"
Saying this, Bruhe Gula said no more.
They were all powerful beings who had survived from ancient times, and they had some judgment regarding right and wrong.
If they were unwilling, even if Bruhe Gula spoke until he was blue in the face, they wouldn't act.
"Gula, I think you're right!"
While everyone was silent, the Snow Wolf was the first to stand up and agree with Bruhe Gula's words, saying, "We provoked Ao Yuan so much before. As a top powerhouse, he will absolutely not let this matter rest."
The others remained silent, but after exchanging glances, they all nodded in agreement.
Clearly, their thoughts were no different from Bruhe Gula's.
And at this moment!
The remaining tribulation clouds had all dissipated.
Only a high-temperature aura still lingered in the air.
With the help of Dragon Flame and Weak Water, the heavenly fire within Ao Yuan's body was almost completely neutralized.
The most direct feeling was that Ao Yuan could feel that his body was no longer as scorching hot as before; instead, it was filled with a warm aura.
And this undoubtedly proved that everything was moving in a positive direction.
"Soon, success is near!"
Sensing the changes within his body, Ao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that the tribulation clouds in the sky had dissipated, he could wholeheartedly deal with the heavenly fire within his body.
And with his efforts, it might not take long to completely dissipate the flames.
"I can already feel the Dragon Flame absorbing the aura of heavenly fire."
"If the heavenly fire completely disappears, I believe my Dragon Flame will reach a new level!"
Speaking of this, a smile couldn't help but appear on Ao Yuan's face.
His initial intention in swallowing the heavenly fire was very simple.
He was greatly threatened by the heavenly fire. If it continued to ferment and descend all at once, he would surely be unable to withstand it.
It was at this point that he swallowed the tribulation clouds in one gulp, hoping to break through.
He never expected that in the end, he would gain such a great advantage!
At least... the previous Ao Yuan had never imagined that he could fuse the heavenly fire with his own Dragon Flame.
"Hmm?"
As Ao Yuan tried his best to melt and fuse the heavenly fire within his body, he suddenly noticed that Bruhe Gula and his group in the distance had begun to move.
They formed a pincer formation, approaching from the distance in a surrounding posture.
"They want to fight me?"
Ao Yuan's heart trembled, and a bad feeling arose.
Before, they had been motionless, and Ao Yuan had thought they were afraid of the heavenly tribulation.
So he had devoted his entire attention to it, only to find that they had started moving again at this critical moment.
"Don't mind them for now; I can't let all my efforts go to waste!"
Ao Yuan's gaze shifted, and he quickly made up his mind.
He certainly wouldn't let Bruhe Gula and his group go, but now was not the right time.
Who knew if the heavenly fire, without suppression, would reignite?
Perhaps it would, perhaps it wouldn't.
But recalling the painful experience of being burned by the heavenly fire before, Ao Yuan didn't want to go through it again.
Unfortunately.
Although Ao Yuan didn't want to provoke them now, they couldn't wait any longer!
Upon noticing Ao Yuan's gaze directed their way, their speed suddenly increased.
