Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 318 Answer, Make Friends, and Leave
"I have to say that Senior Huoyun's suggestion is very appealing to me, but..."

Without letting the three people from Fenyan Valley wait too long, Lin Yuan quickly thought of a statement and said in a deep voice: "Although I have some feelings for Miss Huo'er, it is too early to talk about marriage. Besides, I already have several beauties who are definitely not a good match for me. I am afraid that Miss Huo'er will be wronged."

Lin Yuan selectively told part of the truth… He neither agreed nor explicitly refused, leaving some room for maneuver.

Ancestor Huoyun waved his hand casually: "It's just a small matter? In the Douqi Continent, strength is respected. A genius like you having a few beauties is nothing..."

When he was young, he was also a prominent figure of his time, so he naturally knew what it was like to be a genius.

"senior--"

Lin Yuan interrupted him softly and said, "Some of them are about my age, but their cultivation is higher than that of the younger generation..."

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Huoyun, Tang Zhen, and Tang Huoer were all slightly startled at the same time.

Seeing Lin Yuan's serious expression, Patriarch Huoyun's eyes showed a solemn look, and he said meaningfully: "Little guy, you have good luck in love! Anyway, it's a bit too hasty to talk about marriage now..."

She is about the same age as Lin Yuan, but her cultivation is higher than Lin Yuan. She either has extraordinary talent or a terrifying background... She is not a concubine.

If what Lin Yuan said was true, then the strength and background of his consorts might not be inferior to his own.

In this way, the idea of ​​using marriage to let Huo'er take the position of Lin Yuan's wife before he grew up and use him for his own purposes was shattered.

When Tang Huo'er heard that Patriarch Huoyun had given in, she finally breathed a sigh of relief... If the Patriarch had forced her to do so, she would have had no say.

She glanced at Lin Yuan out of the corner of her eye, a hint of regret flashed in her eyes, but more of it was relief.

"Is this kid so popular? Or is it that some family has the same sharp vision as this old man?"

Patriarch Huoyun sighed secretly in his heart, waved his hand casually, and said with a smile: "I will not interfere in the emotional affairs of young people! However, I really admire you, and hope that you and my Huo'er can communicate more."

"This girl is still young and naive. If she has a friend like you, I will feel more at ease when she travels outside in the future..."

"Don't worry, senior," Lin Yuan smiled and turned his head to look at Tang Huo'er, "Aren't Miss Huo'er and I already friends?"

"Of course! I'm very happy to have you as a friend." Tang Huoer also smiled coolly.

Seeing this scene, Patriarch Huoyun felt a little relieved. He did not refuse decisively, which meant that there was still hope. Although they could not reach the end directly now, at least the two of them had a good start.

Even if the marriage between the two fails in the end, Fenyan Valley will at least have a friend with a promising future.

After a moment of hesitation, he collected his scattered thoughts and got down to business: "I heard from Zhen'er that you wanted to visit me! Is there something you want to discuss with me?"

Hearing this, Lin Yuan straightened his expression and said in a deep voice: "Even if you are here in person, I will not say any empty words and will get straight to the point. I came to visit you this time because I have a question to ask and a deal to make."

"Just a question and a deal... just say it!" Patriarch Huoyun raised his eyebrows, with a little more interest in his eyes.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly and whispered, "Let's talk about the problem first. The Glacier Valley and the Burning Flame Valley are old enemies. Does the Glacier Valley have the same old generation as the seniors?"

"Glacier Valley?" Ancestor Huoyun was a little surprised and asked curiously, "Ask them. Do you have any grudges against Glacier Valley?"

"I guess so!" Lin Yuan hesitated for a moment and explained, "I have a friend with a special physique. She might be targeted by the Glacier Valley. In order to arrange the power to eliminate this hidden danger, I need to know the details of the Glacier Valley..."

"So that's how it is. Your friend has the poisonous body, right?" A hint of understanding flashed in the eyes of Patriarch Huoyun, and he said lightly.

"Senior, do you know?" Lin Yuan showed a hint of surprise at the right time.

“Haha!” Patriarch Huoyun sneered and said indifferently: “We are old rivals. I know a little about what they did.”

"After so many years, they are still as obsessed as ever. After all, they are the inheritors of that lineage. Instead of studying their own heritage, they indulge in those crooked ways and are obsessed with the power that once defeated them. How stupid!"

"But it's not surprising. The inheritance of that lineage has very high requirements for qualifications. I'm afraid they can't find a suitable successor..."

Hearing the sarcastic words of Ancestor Huoyun, Lin Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly. The Glacier Valley was indeed not simple.

This is consistent with some information he found in the Soul Palace. The three valleys in Zhongzhou are not simple forces and their inheritance has been around for a long time.

Seeing Lin Yuan's solemn expression, Patriarch Huoyun smiled slightly and said casually: "You don't have to worry about the matter of Glacier Valley. They did have a semi-saint in their background. Some people thought he was in seclusion, but... he is already dead."

At this point, a cold smile appeared in his eyes: "It was I who killed that old man, just with this one move! Haha..."

Patriarch Huoyun clenched his palms, recalling the feeling of himself breaking through to the level of a Fighting Saint, dragging his old enemy whom he had fought for many years into the void, and then easily crushing him to death.

The exhilarating feeling he felt at that moment alone was worth the risks he took to force his way through to become a Douluo.

Hearing this, Lin Yuan also remembered that in the original trajectory, the Styx Alliance of the Glacier Valley was included, but there was only one half-saint, the old demon Tianming. It turned out that the half-saint of the Glacier Valley was dead.

"Very good! This will make it easier for me to do things later." His face lit up with joy, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

As if guessing Lin Yuan’s thoughts, the warning from Patriarch Huoyun came at the right time.

"Little guy, I could have easily destroyed the Glacier Valley, but I let this 'old enemy' of the Burning Flame Valley go. I even secretly helped to block the news of the old guy's death to keep it stable. Can you guess the reason?"

Hearing this, Lin Yuan thought for a moment and said, "You don't want to change the situation and want your disciples to have a sense of crisis?"

"You are a teachable person! Although this is not all the reasons, it is enough for you to know these."

Patriarch Huoyun nodded with satisfaction and warned in a low voice: "I don't know how far you plan to go, but I am still useful to Glacier Valley. You should be more covert in your actions and be careful not to destroy the Glacier Valley's Taoist tradition..."

"Yes, I understand!" Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan naturally agreed.

He planned to take action against the Glacier Valley, on the one hand to eliminate the hidden dangers, and on the other hand to see if the Little Medical Fairy could use his research on the evil poison body.

Lin Yuan did not have any hatred or malice towards the Glacier Valley itself.

"Now that we have discussed the issues, let's talk about the deal!" Patriarch Huoyun spoke again, looking at Lin Yuan with interest, "My friend, what do you want to trade with me?"

"I am on this trip hoping to get some 'investment' from you, seniors." Facing these old foxes, Lin Yuan said very frankly.

"As you know, I have some talent in both cultivation and alchemy. However, it is precisely because of this talent that I have to get involved in some things. To some extent, I stand at the center of the stage, where the storm gathers."

"In order to fully realize my talent and to prevent it from dying in the process of growth, I need some power to protect myself, so..."

He looked at the Fire Cloud Ancestor seriously, and said with a folded hand: "Senior, please give me a helping hand!"

"I see……"

Patriarch Huoyun nodded slightly and said meaningfully: "You want to get my help and protect you at some point?" "That's right." Lin Yuan nodded and said directly: "During this visit, I want to get the senior's space jade slip so that I can have a chance to seek help in an emergency. As for whether the senior is willing to help, it depends on the specific situation at that time."

"Senior always has the final say on whether to assist, so don't worry that I will ask for something unreasonable."

"As for the reward, you can ask for any eighth-grade elixir you want. Even if it's an eighth-grade, nine-color elixir, I can refine it in a few years."

“As for the ninth-grade elixir…” Lin Yuan showed a proud smile on his face and said leisurely, “It all depends on whether the senior is optimistic about my talent and whether he would like to take a gamble on this rare commodity.”

After saying this, he looked at Ancestor Huoyun calmly, waiting for the latter's reply.

Soon, I will go to participate in the First Thunder Ceremony, and I will definitely meet some saint-level figures then. I would prepare as many trump cards as possible.

Lin Yuan didn't want to expose his relationship with the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan unless it was necessary.

As his words fell, the fiery red palace suddenly fell into silence, and the air became a little stagnant.

"Clap--"

After a while, Patriarch Huoyun clapped his hands and looked at Lin Yuan with appreciation.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"Not bad, not bad! Little guy, you are pretty good! I am increasingly optimistic about you. Although you are young, you have a clear mind and are not blinded by your own talents and achievements. You understand the gap between geniuses and strong people and know how to plan ahead. This is very good."

"A genius is only a strong person if he or she fulfills his or her talent and grows up. No matter how talented you are, once you die, you are just a dead person."

"And in Douqi Continent, there are countless geniuses who died young."

"Your modest and prudent style makes me believe that you can truly realize your talents. You may grow to unimaginable heights in the future..."

As he spoke, the Fire Cloud Patriarch took out a fiery red jade slip and immediately handed it to Lin Yuan: "In this case, I will accept your invitation and make use of this rare treasure! Here, this is my space jade slip, you can use it when necessary..."

"Thank you, senior!" Lin Yuan took the jade slip respectfully, a hint of joy in his eyes... A usable trump card was in his hand.

After putting away the jade slip, he seemed to have thought of something and said seriously: "Miss Huo'er said before that the senior is 'recovering from his injuries'. I have some experience in medical books and alchemy. If the senior doesn't mind, I can take a look..."

Patriarch Huoyun waved his hand and chuckled, "I appreciate your kindness, but there is no rush! If you want to solve my problem, become a ninth-grade alchemist as soon as possible!"

Speaking of his own injuries, even as a Dou Sheng, he couldn't help but feel powerless.

The higher the level of a warrior, the harder it is to recover after a serious injury. The life level of a Dou Sheng is fundamentally different from that of a Dou Zun. Many eighth-grade healing pills that can reshape the body of a Dou Zun have little effect on a Dou Sheng.

There are only a handful of people who can refine ninth-grade elixirs in the entire Douqi Continent. They seem to be even rarer than high-level Doushengs...

Patriarch Huoyun looked at Lin Yuan with a look of expectation in his eyes…If there is anyone in the new generation who can become a ninth-grade alchemist, this boy would be the first choice.

Hearing this, Lin Yuan said seriously: "Don't worry, senior, I will advance to the ninth level as soon as possible."

After a moment's silence, he continued, "Since I am still unable to help Senior Huoyun heal his injuries, I will give some pills to Miss Huo'er! Among the eighth-grade pills, there are several that can improve her cultivation talent, which should help her go further in the future..."

Forming more complex relationships of favor and interest can increase the chances of Old Ancestor Huoyun helping you.

Only through repeated exchanges, help and debts can the relationship between the two parties be deepened, laying a solid foundation for future explorations of the Fenyan heritage and the secrets of the Fenyan ancestor.

With a slight smile, Lin Yuan looked at Tang Huo'er and said, "Miss Huo'er, after the First Thunder Ceremony, you can come to Danta to find me..."

In this way, before Chu Lei Dian Yi returns to Danta, Ancestor Huoyun's willingness to protect himself should be stronger.

After hearing Lin Yuan's words, Tang Huo'er felt guilty, but she couldn't say anything to refuse... Improving the aptitude for cultivation is a temptation that almost no cultivator can refuse.

She looked at her father who loved her. Tang Zhen's eyes were a little excited, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Ancestor Huoyun.

She looked at the ancestor who loved her, and before she could say anything, the ancestor Huoyun smiled kindly, "Huo'er, you are so kind, why don't you thank little friend Lin quickly..."

Hearing this, Tang Huo'er turned to look at Lin Yuan and said softly, "Thank you, Lin Yuan! By the way, don't call me Miss Huo'er in the future. If you don't mind, just call me Huo'er. Since we are friends, there is no need to be so distant."

"Then I won't be polite, Huo'er!" Lin Yuan didn't act pretentiously and just called him 'Huo'er' as he was told.

They looked at each other and both smiled gently.

Seeing the friendly attitude of the two, Tang Zhen and Old Ancestor Huoyun smiled with satisfaction, and the surroundings were suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.
-
Eight days later, after completing the refining of the second Yizun Pill, Lin Yuan chose to say goodbye.

Outside the Burning Flame Valley, ripples suddenly appeared on the solid space shield. At a certain moment, a crack several feet wide was torn open on the shield, and then several figures slowly walked out from the crack.

"Even though I've sent you a thousand miles away, we must still say goodbye! Master Tang, Huo'er, just send me here."

Turning around and looking at the two of them, Lin Yuan smiled slightly and spoke loudly.

Hearing this, Tang Huoer smiled brightly and said softly: "Goodbye, Lin Yuan! We will meet again at the Chu Lei Dian Ceremony in a while..."

Tang Zhen also smiled, then patted Lin Yuan on the shoulder and said, "When you have time in the future, you can come to my Fen Yan Valley as a guest. As long as I am still the master of Fen Yan Valley, you will be the first-class guest of my Fen Yan Valley."

"If there is a chance, Lin Yuan will definitely visit again!" Lin Yuan said seriously.

Afterwards, he no longer hesitated, cupped his fists towards the two of them, and led Zi Yan and Qing Lin to soar into the air, quickly flying towards the outside of the Scorching Fire Mountain Range...

After the three figures disappeared into the sky, Tang Zhen withdrew his gaze and looked at his daughter who was gazing at the sky.

"They have gone far away, Huo'er, let's go back!" Tang Zhen said gently.

"Hmm!" Tang Huoer nodded gently, her voice a little distant: "Dad, what do you think of Lin Yuan and I... that's all. I want to start getting familiar with the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire, is that okay?"

Although his daughter had inexplicably matured and become more motivated, Tang Zhen still felt complicated.

Shaking his head, he said softly: "Well! I will give you a wisp of fire later..."

　After some analysis, I found that there are really few ninth-grade alchemists in the original novel.

　　There were about 30 Dou Shengs above the 10-star level, but less than th-grade alchemists.

　　Even fewer can refine the Mysterious Pill. A cultivation level of almost six-star Douluo is required as a minimum. Except for the protagonist, old man Shennong has never succeeded in refining it, and Wanhuo has only a 20% chance. Hunxuzi's seven-star cultivation level and fire are far superior to them, so he should be able to do it. With a medicinal pill that has a relatively high possibility, and the one that has been refined by the ancestor of Danta, he should be able to succeed.

　　The golden elixir has not been produced for a thousand years. It is estimated that the only golden elixir master is Danta, plus Tushegudi.
