Fights Break Sphere: I am not Xiao Yan

Chapter 159 Fire Spirit
"Pong!"

The originally calm swamp suddenly made a loud noise, and the surface water exploded into a thick light green fog under the impact, and quickly broke through in an arch shape.

The thick fog dissipated and the smoke disappeared, and the sky above the entire poisonous swamp became clear, revealing a piece of soil that was slowly expanding and rising above the water.

"It seems that Douqi Continent does not disobey all physical rules. Although there are indeed many strange behaviors, the most basic mechanics can still be found to correspond to them."

Xiao Yan stopped what he was doing and carefully examined the explosion scene while comparing it with the scene in his memory.

As the internal heat continued to rush upward, the silt that had bulged into a mountain had exceeded its own endurance limit and exploded into a mud volcano on the spot. The boiling poisonous flow mixed with fire rushed up into the sky like a fountain and was clearly visible for hundreds of miles around.

"…It's a pity that mechanics can't save the tech tree as it is."

Xiao Yan sighed deeply.

It's not like he hasn't thought about changing the world, but unfortunately even a mere great fighting master can be dressed in a turtle shell.

The Dou Qi armor was so hard that even a cannon could not be used to fire at it to break the defense. What's more, with such an exaggerated speed difference, ordinary people would be beheaded by a sword energy without even a chance to aim.

In the end, it is better to practice honestly... This is the technology tree explored by countless ancestors in the Doupo world.

Can you still be as smart as your ancestors?
"The noise this time is exactly the same as before. It seems we are not in the right place. Shall we continue walking?"

Medusa casually pulled out a purple crystal, lit up a red flame in her palm, and slowly melted it into a round sphere.

Perhaps it was the difference between humans and monsters, the fire from Xiao Yan's body seemed particularly gentle and controllable, and it was quite easy to control. With a little practice in a few days, he could catch up with the fire control level of many alchemists.

"Wait a little longer, at least until I'm done with my work..."

Xiao Yan continued to wipe the Black Demon Cauldron with his head down, breathing on it carefully, and cleaning every corner and pattern carefully without leaving a single speck of mud.

The affectionate look on his face left Medusa speechless.

What's going on with this guy?

Before, it was just a piece of scrap metal and thrown around without any fear of collapse or explosion, but how come it is suddenly taken care of as if it were an ancestor... No, maybe even the ancestral tablets have not received this level of care.

"Xiao Yan~"

The Little Medical Fairy was yawning, her body steaming hot as if she had just gotten out of bed, and her breath was much stronger than before.

"Does this thing need a lot of maintenance? Why didn't you clean it carefully before?"

She had seen this strange black cauldron many times and had always thought it was just a hard lump that could be used to make medicine. Its main job was to withstand blows and its side job was to make medicine. It was a prop that was completely on the same table as the Xuan Chongchi.

This is the first time I see Xiao Yan treating it so seriously.

It's definitely not necessary...

A black line appeared on Xiao Yan’s forehead.

Even if you put hundreds of fire lotuses in its belly and let them explode together, not a trace would be left. Throwing it into a space storm would only start a strange drift, and the wall of the tripod would not be damaged at all.

"I can only say: 'I'll take care of it.' This is very necessary. It involves life and property!"

Xiao Yan replied very seriously.

Yao Lao always had to make medicine, and in this situation, he could either use the Black Magic Cauldron or Xiao Yan. If he couldn't appease this stubborn old man, he might really use him to make a fire and make medicine.

As for the feasibility of using humans as a tripod...

The three elements needed for a medicine cauldron are fire resistance, fire ignition, and the ability to hold medicinal materials. It would be even better if it could have its own spiritual fire to smelt the medicinal materials.

As for Xiao Yan, it seems that he is a person who can achieve great things.

"But in this case, can I swallow the herbs and then start refining the elixir in my stomach? After the elixir is made, won't all the thunder and lightning that come will hit me?"

The inner elixir is refined by blood and fire and cast by thunder. If it can withstand the tempering, the effect will surely be amazing.

Especially the elixir itself, which can be eaten as soon as it is refined. All the energy it contains will be retained in the body, and not even a trace of the elixir fragrance can float out.

Others can only breathe in two breaths of waste gas filled with drug residue.

"It's a perfect use...hiss?"

Xiao Yan shuddered inexplicably, and the strange fire suspended in his body rushed towards a corner uncontrollably, as if it had discovered some prey and was eager to break out of the body and kill it.

"grown ups!"

The lion king flapped his wings in panic and rose into the clouds, but the space around him began to dim before him, and the scorching heat bestowed by the sun was also rapidly fading, making it almost impossible to keep the red sun fire burning.

Unlike Medusa's black hole-like devouring power, this time, it really blocked the sun.

"teacher?"

As the chill that came with the shadow grew stronger, Xiao Yan slowly stopped moving with his body stiffened, his eyes becoming more solemn.

It seems like he was thinking wrong from the beginning...

He may not be the only hunter in this swamp!
"brush--"

The familiar possession skill was activated, and Xiao Yan's consciousness almost left his body in an instant. From a third-party perspective, he felt the soul power surge wildly. In just half a breath, it increased more than ten times and was even surging upwards, almost endlessly.

"boom!"

A circle of bright light attached to the surface of his body, lifting him up and slowly floating in the air, ignoring gravity.

The madly expanding soul power was like a tsunami of real water. The terrifying rapids rushed everywhere, filling an area of ​​hundreds of miles in a short moment, and then quickly seeped down, splitting into millions of detection tentacles that poked straight into the depths of the swamp.

"This... a feeling of power I've never felt before!"

Xiao Yan spread out his hands tremblingly. Even his well-tempered body was slowly breaking through fine scratches, and then rapidly repairing itself under the action of qi and blood. It seemed that he could hardly bear and control this terrifying energy.

"Xiao Yan? You're back to normal!"

Medusa had just drawn her sword and stood up when she was pinned down by the sudden spiritual pressure, but what appeared in her eyes was surprise instead of horror.

Could it be that this somewhat eccentric fool is going to turn back into that mysterious and powerful man?

"Um…"

Xiao Yan responded casually, his attention following his gaze to the depths of the ground, and the mysterious creature hidden underground revealed its shape.

It was an inky black spirit body that looked like a snake's body, but it was so thin that its skin was wrinkled. Its bones, which glowed green, supported the bulging inky skin and formed a body with clearly segmented parts.

It swam silently like a whale in the deep sea, slowly passing right under the few people and exploring towards the place where the fire lotus exploded.

Following around him was a circle of shadowy barriers. These things were almost condensed from pure sinister energy. Just getting close to them could drown out the lightning and fire energy between heaven and earth, and even weaken the sunlight.

Although there is not much fighting spirit of this nature left in this kind of ghost place, the ability to naturally influence the environment is undoubtedly possessed by the strange fire!
"Sa~"

As if it sensed being watched from above, the skull embedded in the tumor on its head and neck suddenly twisted, and its eyes, filled with dark green poisonous fire, stared at Xiao Yan.

A burning sensation wrapped in a strange and chilly feeling instantly emerged, as strange as drinking a mouthful of iced sulfuric acid, but it had some of the meaning of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire's own properties conflicting and blending with each other.

"Tsk..." The fire spirit slowly opened its mouth, and a thick cold aura began to erode the soul power he had explored, and even quickly spread along the soul towards the body.

"This ghost thing really deserves the name 'Netherworld'."

Xiao Yan's eyes darkened slightly. This ball of poisonous fire that had evolved into a complete spiritual body had already stabilized at the Dou Zong level. Coupled with its own attributes and the environment it was in, even a Dou Zong powerhouse who had advanced to a high level might not be able to take it down.

If Yao Lao had not just woken up and filled the gap in combat power, even if the Lion King and Medusa came together, they would have been able to just stare blankly in mid-air.

I can’t beat it…

If she were accidentally burned by the fire spirit, the remaining poison gas in her body would probably make her full.

"Hiss~ Is this the Netherworld Poison Fire? It has actually reached the threshold of gathering spiritual intelligence. If we take into account the strange properties and terrain bonus, it is probably not much inferior to the top fifteen strange fires on the list."

Yao Lao's expression was slightly shocked, and he pulled his beard unconsciously.

Obviously, the shock that the strange fire had given him from its birth of intelligence had already surpassed the shock brought by Xiao Yan's good luck.

"Fortunately that guy didn't have the chance to help you, otherwise you would be in danger today!"

Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan's group again and again, and his expression became even more frightened. Fortunately, fortunately... Otherwise, he could only drag Xiao Yan's soul with him to find an enemy to absorb Dou Qi and teach him the Burning Technique.

"So it's quite lucky?"

Xiao Yan touched his nose awkwardly.

“…It’s hard to say.”

Yao Lao opened his mouth and sighed with some emotion: "It is not easy for the spiritual creatures of heaven and earth to gather spiritual wisdom. It seems that they are just one step away, but it is more than a hundred times more difficult than the evolution of magic beasts. If you are unlucky, you may not be able to take the last step until your spirituality dissipates."

"What's more, the stronger the spiritual object, the more difficult it is to gather its spirit. If it is like those at the top of the Different Fire List, it may take thousands or even tens of thousands of years."

Guessed it.

Xiao Yan grinned.

The ancient emperor Tushe gathered spirits and practiced in seclusion for thousands of years, only then a hint of spiritual wisdom was born in the dark, and then he slowly practiced by swallowing fire.

Maybe even the birth of spiritual wisdom was influenced by the Burning Decision...

"What!"

The poisonous fire below was brewing its attack, and it suddenly erupted while Xiao Yan was distracted, spitting out a dark poisonous stream that annihilated the light of the sky. Wherever it passed, even the space was rippling, and under the erosion of energy, it gradually turned yellow and warped, etching out marks.

'Danger! '

Medusa's expression suddenly changed. From her perspective, the swamp below suddenly turned into a dark vortex. Before she could figure out where the enemy was or what it was, a stream of breath rushed out from inside and rushed towards her.

Once hit by the attack, you will be seriously injured if not killed.

Even the blood of the Sky-Swallowing Python in her body was unconsciously alarmed. The colorful light reflected in her pupils almost turned into thorns and rushed out, and the shadow of the Sky-Swallowing Python appeared behind her.

As for the Lion King...

When he was locked by the aura, he, whose Chiyang bloodline was destroyed, had already begun to consider where he should be buried.

Now, you can just die in mid-air without a complete body, and you can even stop thinking.

"Tsk..."

Yao Lao frowned suddenly, waved his hand at the ground, and the space in the middle was folded and twisted in waves, turning the flow into a "7" shape and shooting towards the distance.

It is indeed a beast without intelligence.

He had clearly sensed his strength, yet still dared to attack. It was simply... ahem.

"Little Yanzi, let the master teach it a lesson personally."

Yao Lao took over the body and pointed a finger at the Fire Spirit from a distance: "Here, the cauldron!"

As soon as the words were spoken, hard ripples suddenly appeared in the surrounding space and connected to form a tripod shape, blocking the guy in the center. No matter how hard he attacked, he couldn't break through the barrier.

With another flip of his hand, he summoned the Bone Spirit Cold Fire. For the first time, Yao Lao condensed the spirit of cold fire and threw it at the poisonous fire.

'Humanoid...'

Xiao Yan watched as the dark white figure rushed into the cauldron, broke into pieces, and transformed into thousands of strange beasts that pounced on the poisonous fire, biting and devouring it continuously.

The hundred-foot-long fire spirit seemed to be wearing a layer of cold fire clothes. With continuous "cracking" sounds, its body gradually froze in the struggle and roar, and collapsed inch by inch in the burning of cold fire.

"Whoo~"

Yao Lao let out a long sigh, and his previously vigorous soul power was somewhat sluggish: "I didn't expect the consumption would be so great. It seems that the previous methods have to be sealed for the time being."

The peak of the Ninth Transformation plus the Heavenly Realm Soul, the various skills that Yao Lao had figured out during his lifetime were still too advanced for him now, quite like starting a car with a bottle cap of gasoline...

"Teacher, what did you do just now?"

Xiao Yan spoke hesitantly.

It was really because the performance of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire just now was too evil, and the various beast forms that evolved were mostly ancient beasts with wild appearances, which did not seem like what could exist in this era.

"Oh~ you mean this?"

A fire spirit condensed in Yao Lao's palm, and a palm-sized figure emerged, with a floating flame as if nodding at Xiao Yan.

"This Bone Spirit Cold Fire seemed to have possessed spirituality before I subdued it. It had explored a path of cultivation on its own. It used its own yin-yang unity to continuously devour souls and even absorb various kinds of fire..."

As he spoke, Yao Lao himself was a little confused: "I don't know why it lost its intelligence, giving me the opportunity to take advantage of it and refine it."

"As for the things it devoured before, they were completely integrated into the fire after being refined and difficult to separate. Considering its diverse forms and good power, I didn't care about it anymore."

He simultaneously transformed into countless fire spirits to attack, which was extremely powerful, but the consumption was also very high. Even in his heyday, he rarely used it in combat, and basically only did so when dealing with difficult-to-use medicinal materials.

Devour…

Xiao Yan stared at the Bone Spirit Cold Fire in a daze, with some absurd guesses in his mind.

Could it be that this thing is trying to replicate the deeds of Tushegudi?
This guy is even more exaggerated than Tuoshe. Not only does he eat fire, he also eats souls. If he really learns this technique, it will be terrible! Its harm is comparable to that of the evil race outside the domain.

"Then...is this figure also swallowed up?"

Xiao Yan looked left and right at the fire spirit and always felt that this thing was staring at him.

"No."

Yao Lao's tone was also somewhat uncertain. He held the Fire Spirit in his hand and lowered his brows in thought: "It only appeared later. To be precise, it didn't appear until I woke up from the ring."

"puff."

The cold fire jumped slightly, as if confirming his words.
