Refining medicine can't save Doupo!

Chapter 678 Breakthrough of the Two Saints!

However, as the saying goes, humans cannot escape their three inherent traits: being a procrastinator, a repeating machine, and the "it smells so good" principle.

Although Yao Chen was very dissatisfied with Coldfire Little Bone Dragon's disdainful attitude towards the old man, he had to admit that the super strange fire, which was only one step away from becoming a Dou Sheng, was really delicious!

The moment the Cold Fire Bone Dragon merged with Yao Chen, Yao Chen discovered that his ghost cultivation realm suddenly began to rise rapidly at a visible speed, like a rocket, advancing from two-star ghost lord to three-star ghost lord.
"Old man, your ghost cultivation technique is quite good. I've discovered that I can cultivate it too." Cold, eerie white flames clung to Yao Chen's ghostly body, and Leng Huo Xiao Gu Long Gu Ao Tian's voice echoed deep within Yao Chen's soul.

"This was originally developed based on the properties of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire." Yao Chen, who was merging with Bone Aotian, discovered that he and Bone Aotian seemed to be very compatible. The fusion process was very easy and smooth, without any obstacles.

However, Yao Chen quickly thought of his 'original wife' who had died at Xiao Yan's hands, and he couldn't help but feel grief. If he had known that the strange fire could still be nurtured, he wouldn't have given it to Xiao Yan.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Ghost Spirit Technique, not bad. It's a fusion of soul power and battle qi, using a more efficient energy circulation method, so that the fused ghost qi has the effect of directly damaging the soul." As a spirit of heaven and earth, Cold Fire Little Bone Dragon naturally has high talent. In addition, the Ghost Spirit Technique created by Yao Chen, Pei Xuan and others is based on the Bone Spirit Cold Fire. Therefore, Cold Fire Little Bone Dragon understands the Ghost Spirit Technique without any obstacles. In short, it's very smooth and easy.

(Medicine Dust: ??? Please stop using that weird word "run"!)

"I actually have a question. You should know that I am the most compatible with you, but why..." Yao Chen, who had entered a meditative state and was re-establishing a soul fusion contract with the Cold Fire Little Bone Dragon, suddenly asked the question that had been on his mind.

When Yao Chen realized that the Cold Fire Little Bone Dragon possessed extraordinary spirituality, he knew that this was the most terrifying opportunity of his life!

Back then, the upper limit of the Pure Lotus Battle Saint was the upper limit that Yao Chen could reach! Furthermore, Yao Chen didn't even need to worry about the Cold Fire Little Bone Dragon turning against him! Why? Because the Cold Fire Little Bone Dragon was intelligent enough! As long as their cooperation wasn't based on coercion through force, but rather on mutual complementarity, then they could mutually benefit each other!

"Hmph. Mind your own business?" Leng Huo Xiao Gu Long Gu Ao Tian snorted lightly, not wanting to answer Yao Chen's question.

Yaochen: "."

Okay, so it turns out she's actually a little tsundere.
After realizing that the Coldfire Little Bone Dragon was toying with him, Yao Chen composed himself and began to seriously fuse his power with the Coldfire Little Bone Dragon.

Different flames can be bound to a soul, so Yao Chen's current ghost body can also be bound to the Cold Flame Little Bone Dragon, and that's what Yao Chen is about to do.

It's not that the Coldfire Bone Dragon is incapable of independence; if he could escape, he could very well become a powerful Bone Fire Saint in the future. However, Jiang Lin has already made it clear: what would be the price for the Coldfire Bone Dragon to gain the opportunity to leave?

Although Jiang Lin didn't say it explicitly, the clever and quick-witted Cold Fire Bone Dragon could instantly understand with its skeletal toes that the price was freedom.
Of course, it's not necessarily about freedom, because Coldfire Little Bone Dragon himself understands that Yao Chen's path is so perfectly suited to him that it was practically made for him. If there were no outsiders, Coldfire Little Bone Dragon might take the initiative to choose to form a contract with Yao Chen. In the future, he would be the master, and Yao Chen would be the pet, and the two of them would conquer the stars and the sea outside.

Because Lan Hong, Jiang Lin, and other people with extremely abnormal auras were watching from the side, Leng Huo Xiao Gu Long, for the sake of prudence, first asked them questions in order of increasing danger level. Only after confirming that Yao Chen was not just an accessory to this group of people would Leng Huo Xiao Gu Long choose to tie his bright future to Yao Chen.

Behind the seemingly arrogant Coldfire Bone Dragon lies a great deal of caution.

Logically, the Bone Spirit Cold Fire shouldn't possess such high intelligence, but unfortunately, the environment of the Dragon Tomb space is too excellent. Cold Fire Little Bone Dragon absorbed too many fragmented dragon souls wandering here, thus gradually growing to its current terrifying level.

"Old Yao has finally obtained his destiny and opportunity." Just as Yao Chen's aura continued to rise, the cold white flames around him continued to surge, and a small and cute bone dragon appeared on his head, Xiao Yan and the others not far away couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing this, Han Feng sighed and couldn't help but complain, "So, we can say we've each achieved something?"

Xiao Yan glanced at Han Feng with some surprise, thinking to himself that this rebellious senior brother seemed to have come to his senses.
"It seems that Senior Brother has let go of his worries?"

"There's no such thing as letting go. Every bite and sip is preordained." Han Feng shook his head and said, "I've just figured out a lot of things. Although you all ganged up to make fun of me, Han Feng doesn't care about many things. I'm different from you. I'm an orphan. If that old man hadn't seen my good soul talent and that I was a genius at alchemy, and taken me as his disciple, I might have died long ago."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan chuckled. The main reason he played Han Feng was because the power of the Dou Zun gave him confidence, which made him not care much about Han Feng.

If Yao Chen hadn't said he would pass on his true mantle to Han Feng, Xiao Yan wouldn't have even given Han Feng a second glance.

Why? Because the difference in their levels is too great, and Han Feng will never have a chance to catch up.

Xiao Yan clearly remembered that the initial Burning Flame Technique was only a Yellow-Rank technique. Although it was quite advanced among Yellow-Rank techniques, a Yellow-Rank technique was still a Yellow-Rank technique. Han Feng was only cultivating half of the Burning Flame Technique, so his cultivation speed was probably even slower than Xiao Yan's back then.
Furthermore, Xiao Yan's Burning Flame Technique only reached the Profound Rank after he completely absorbed the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. Han Feng, however, could not fully absorb the Sea Heart Flame with his half-finished Burning Flame Technique. This means that Han Feng, this monster, stubbornly endured the cultivation debuffs of half the Burning Flame Technique and the backlash debuffs of the Sea Heart Flame, and at a relatively young age, successfully cultivated to the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Huang realm, and ultimately broke through to the Dou Zong realm.
Xiao Yan hypothesized whether he could achieve Han Feng's results under those circumstances. He realized he couldn't even manage half of the Burning Technique plus the backlash from the Sea Heart Flame. Han Feng's cultivation speed was actually only around the advanced Yellow Rank. Xiao Yan couldn't believe that anyone could cultivate to the peak of Dou Huang using an advanced Yellow Rank technique. You should know that the young Dou Huang sect master of the Yunlan Sect also cultivated the advanced Xuan Rank technique inherited from the Yunlan Sect.

Or take a look at Hu Lei, the president of the Gama Empire's Weapon Forging Guild. He is older than Han Feng and cultivates a low-level Earth-rank technique passed down by the Soul Craftsman. Although Hu Lei initially cultivated the high-level Profound-rank technique of the Weapon Forging Guild and only later obtained the low-level Earth-rank technique from the Soul Craftsman, he still does not cultivate as fast as Han Feng.
This shows just how terrifying Han Feng's talent is.

“If Senior Brother had chosen a different cultivation method, when I met you again, you might already be a top-tier expert in the late Dou Zong stage,” Xiao Yan suddenly sighed.

Han Feng gave a wicked smile: "Then wouldn't I have betrayed that old man for nothing?"

Xiao Yan was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then burst into laughter. He understood; Han Feng was a bit stubborn.

"I told you, I'm an orphan. I believe in the saying 'after hardship comes happiness.' Suffering can't be for nothing. If it's for nothing, I'll feel that everything I've done has been meaningless." Han Feng looked at Yao Chen, who was merging with the Cold Fire Bone Dragon, and then shook his head with a sigh.

Han Feng's soul talent was indeed very strong. The backlash from the strange fire over the years had not defeated him. Instead, it made his soul more and more resilient. He then made great strides on the path of ghost cultivation, which made Yao Chen envious, jealous and hateful, and extremely unbalanced in his heart.

"Sigh," Xiao Yan shook his head upon hearing this. Han Feng was right; every bite and every sip was predetermined, and there was no need for assumptions.

If Han Feng hadn't encountered half of the Burning Mantra, there wouldn't have been the story of Xiao Yan later on.

However, if Han Feng hadn't possessed even a fraction of the Burning Flame Technique, Xiao Yan wouldn't have known that it actually had two different uses. Now, the three of them, master and disciple, have each embarked on their own path of different flames.

Xiao Yan devours all the strange flames in the world, gathers their power, and strives to prove himself as emperor.

Han Feng, on the other hand, possesses a unique flame. With the support of spirituality, Han Feng's future can be seen as the ultimate potential of the Sea Heart Flame.

Yao Chen, on the other hand, formed a cooperative agreement with the Strange Fire to jointly pursue the Great Dao.

It's impossible to say which of these three paths is stronger.

If Xiao Yan and Han Feng were to become emperors at the same time, Xiao Yan's title of 'Flame Emperor' would most likely not affect Han Feng's 'Sea Emperor Flame'.

It can only be said that Yao Chen, Xiao Yan, and Han Feng, the three masters and disciples, have gone through all the paths of the Strange Flame. In the end, it will be a matter of who goes further and who goes higher.

"Moreover," seeing that Xiao Yan seemed to sigh, Han Feng suddenly spoke up with a strange expression, "the Sea Heart Flame, as a different kind of fire, is originally the spirit of heaven and earth. In the concept of a spirit craftsman, it is the embodiment of the laws of heaven and earth."

"Due to the special nature of the Burning Technique, the Sea Heart Flame, after years of interaction, has formed a special relationship with me as a companion flame. My soul resonates with this unique Sea Heart Flame in my hand." Han Feng spread his hands, and a ball of azure flame slowly rose. Xiao Yan subconsciously looked over, then frowned.

After Han Feng's reminder, Xiao Yan also began to notice that the Sea Heart Flame in Han Feng's hand seemed to be a little different from the super Sea Heart Flame he had absorbed before. It was as if one was wild and the other was born from a different mother and was domesticated.

"In other words, my soul can resonate in a special way with the laws of heaven and earth." Han Feng's expression was very strange, and his gaze towards Xiao Yan was also very complicated.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yan was puzzled when he saw Han Feng looking at him with a strange expression.

"Nothing much, I just had a strange dream. In the dream, I was fighting for the Fallen Heart Flame of Canaan Academy, and then you destroyed my physical body."

Xiao Yan scratched his head: "It seems you've lost your physical body too."

"No," Han Feng shook his head, "That's not what I wanted to say. It's..."

"I seem to have dreamt that I should have died at your hands. Perhaps this is a kind of premonition given by the laws of heaven and earth. But I didn't. Well, it seems that in a sense, 'Han Feng' is also dead. The one who is alive now should be 'Han Feng of the Sea Heart Flame'." Han Feng sighed softly, his tone quite wistful.

Xiao Yan suddenly thought of Ling Jiu's prophecy and thought to himself that he was indeed the protagonist. However, he quickly looked at Jiang Lin, who was diligently cultivating on the other side.

He's the protagonist, so what's that guy next to him, who's practically covered in his protagonist aura?

"Perhaps you are referring to fate? And now, you have changed your fate?" Xiao Yan's eyes flashed. He suddenly realized that if it weren't for Jiang Lin, Xiao Yan would have really helped Yao Chen kill Han Feng.

Although Jiang Lin didn't explicitly say he would protect Han Feng, the many things Jiang Lin provided invisibly ultimately changed Yao Chen and Xiao Yan, thus altering their attitudes towards Han Feng.

After the trip to the ancient sea, Xiao Yan felt that Han Feng was a dispensable existence.

Yao Chen, who was cultivating the Ghost Spirit Technique, was preparing to punish his rebellious disciple Han Feng. However, he unexpectedly discovered that Han Feng's talent for ghost cultivation was even better than his own, which made Yao Chen lose confidence.

Han Feng, upon seeing this, realized that the old man had truly passed on his skills this time, and his attitude towards Yao Chen became increasingly complicated. Yao Chen, in turn, didn't know what to say. After all, Han Feng, this monster honed by half of the Burning Mantra, possessed incredibly high talent in ghost cultivation, and might even surpass him in the future.
"Well, I guess so, it's pretty complicated anyway." Han Feng shook his head. He'd figured things out a lot lately and felt the current situation was pretty good.

"Tsk tsk tsk, let's cultivate first. The harder you work, the luckier you get." Xiao Yan smiled at Han Feng, his smile somewhat sincere, which meant he was beginning to acknowledge Han Feng.

"Of course, choice is more important than effort." Xiao Yan chuckled, then found a fire-type dragon skeleton, used the power of his strange fire to burn it slightly, and the ancient skeleton instantly became crystal clear. Then Xiao Yan began to sit cross-legged to absorb and refine it.

Seeing this, Han Feng searched for some unconscious dragon souls floating like clouds in some corners, and then began to absorb and refine them.

Soon, everyone in the Dragon Tomb space began to busy themselves with their cultivation.

As their cultivation levels deepened, everyone's perception of time became increasingly blurred, and a year passed in the blink of an eye.
When two terrifyingly high-energy reactions erupted simultaneously within the Dragon Tomb space, everyone slowly awoke from their cultivation state.

Lan Hong and Yuan Liao have both broken through to the Dou Sheng level.

Without going through the so-called half-saint realm, he directly broke through from the peak of Dou Zun to become Dou Sheng.

Or rather, the more ancient the magical beast, the less it understands what a demigod is! A demigod is simply a completely new realm accidentally created by the ancient sages of the human race in order to simplify the difficulty of breaking through to the Battle Saint realm!

As for magical beasts with even stronger foundations, those that can reach the Venerable Realm have incredibly powerful bloodlines and strong personal qualities, allowing them to directly break through to the Saint Rank!
