People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 122 Zi Yan Didn’t Deceive Me

Chapter 122 Zi Yan did not lie to me!
In the next few days, Chen Xiao was not in a hurry to make advance payments, but was completely immersed in the cultivation of fighting spirit and soul power.

Unfortunately, no matter how focused he was, he was still unable to enter that elusive state of enlightenment again.

As for the idle advance payment opportunities, Tian Yao Kui is an alternative.

A Dou Zong-level combat capability is the capital for survival in the Black Horn Region!

However, because the fourth elder Cao Xi is still in Fengcheng and there is no threat around him, Chen Xiao is not in a hurry to advance the Heavenly Demon Puppet. Anyway, there is no delay in the advance payment, and there will be no problem in advancing it when needed.

It just so happens that Chen Xiao can use this time to think about whether there are other things that are urgently needed.

Xiao Yixian was close to a breakthrough, and she had been in seclusion most of the time these days. After Fengcheng gradually got on the right track, piles of poisonous materials and poisons were sent to the bamboo building, which became the basic food for her promotion.

Seeing how enthusiastic Chen Xiao and Xiao Yixian were, the usually carefree Zi Yan was deeply infected and felt a sense of urgency in her heart. In addition, she knew very well that once Cao Ying finished refining the Sea Heart Flame, she would probably have to return to Zhongzhou.

Therefore, Zi Yan has been sticking with Cao Ying these days, asking her to help condense the pills and stockpile them.

For a fifth-grade alchemist, refining the pills needed for Zi Yan is just basic skills and does not require much effort.

But the quantity is too large.

For five consecutive days, Cao Ying's medicine cauldron was almost burning and smoking, but the little dragon's medicinal material reserves showed no sign of running out.

"Zi Yan, how many medicinal herbs have you hidden?"

"Only a little bit."

Hearing this familiar answer, Cao Ying was speechless.

After plundering Maple City, Kuilang Gang, and Beast Taming Sect, three old-established forces in the Black Horn Region, this little dragon is now extremely wealthy and no one knows where her limits are.

Every time she was asked, her answer was a little bit.

Working overtime these days made Cao Ying deeply realize how indulgent her fiancé was towards this little dragon.

Even in the Cao family, she had never handled so many rare medicinal herbs, but here, they were just Zi Yan's rations...

"Zi Yan, stop refining here. The output from these few days will be enough for you to eat for at least half a year. When Fourth Uncle and I return to Zhongzhou, we'll have the Cao family keep an eye out for the Transformation Grass for you. Within half a year, we should be able to send you the Transformation Pill. By then, you won't have to compete with these pills anymore."

Cao Ying stood up, put away the medicine cauldron and said.

She likes Zi Yan, the group's favorite.

But as an alchemist, she always felt like she was wasting resources when she personally refined each rare herb into a low-quality pill.

Therefore, Cao Ying didn't want to do this painful thing anymore, estimating that Zi Yan had enough pills to last for more than half a year.

Zi Yan looked up at Cao Ying, her almond-shaped eyes curved into two narrow slits as she smiled, her soft voice filled with joy: "Yes, thank you, Sister Cao Ying!"

Cao Ying smiled, her palm gently stroking Zi Yan's hair, and jokingly said, "You are so distant, don't you think of me as your sister?"

When the atmosphere was harmonious, Cao Ying's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a secret voice suddenly sounded in her sea of ​​consciousness.

"Let's go, Fourth Uncle is ready. Call Chen Xiao and we'll go take a look."

As soon as the two came out of the room, they saw Chen Xiao already waiting outside the door.

Obviously, he also received the message.

Xiao Yixian was in seclusion and it was not appropriate to disturb her, while Hai Bodong needed to stay in Fengcheng. The three of them went downstairs and said something to her before heading towards the back of Fengcheng.

After crossing a high peak, they came to a large valley, where they saw Cao Xi standing there waiting quietly.

In front of him, there was a cluster of deep blue flames the size of a peach pit floating. Apart from the scorching heat it emitted, it would be difficult to notice it just from its appearance if you didn't look carefully.

"Is this Han Feng's Sea Heart Flame? Why is it so weak?"

As she approached, Zi Yan looked surprised and puzzled.

In her perception, this Sea Heart Flame seemed to be inferior to the Blue Lotus Earth Heart Fire seen in the Tagor Desert.

"The energy of a strange fire cannot be determined solely by its ranking. It is also related to the time of its birth. For example, a newly born Fallen Heart Flame is far inferior to the thousand-year-old Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. Tagor's fire is even more than a thousand years old."

"This Sea Heart Flame must have been born no more than a thousand years ago, otherwise it would have been difficult for Han Feng to refine it. Moreover, it was refined and devoured by Han Feng once, and now it has been consumed by the Fourth Elder for five days. It is normal for it to look a little weak."

Chen Xiao explained aloud, very satisfied with the current situation.

In the original trajectory, every time Xiao Yan refined and devoured the strange fire in the early and middle stages, the target was far beyond his strength, and he was always risking his life.

Although Xiao Yan succeeded by chance every time, this life-risking approach was not suitable for Cao Ying.

Chen Xiao's view of Cao Ying is that she is a talented alchemist who can continuously provide him with elixirs behind the scenes, rather than a fighting force.

Under this premise, he only needs Cao Ying to be able to refine three kinds of strange fire that are extremely dangerous and ranked low on the strange fire list.

There is no need to aspire to those that rank too high.

At the very least, you don't have to be too obsessed in the short term.

"Having said that, the fusion of two strange fires still cannot be taken lightly. As the saying goes, do it within your capabilities."

Cao Ying nodded slightly in response.

Chen Xiao has reminded Cao Xi more than once, so there is no need for him to elaborate further.

"Let's do it like last time. Zi Yan, please help keep an eye on it. We'll go wait outside."

Chen Xiao nodded slightly, taking a step forward and then retracting it. Under the puzzled gaze of the three, he quickly formed seals with his hands, and a glacial talisman shimmering with strange runes gradually condensed in his hands.

When this Ice Soul Talisman appeared, the Sea Heart Flame floating in the air was deeply affected, like a candle in the wind, as if it would be extinguished at any time.

"go with!"

Chen Xiao let out a low shout, and the Ice Soul Talisman in his hand shot out. After flying hundreds of feet, it exploded in front of the astonished gazes of the three people.

laugh!laugh!laugh!
An extreme coldness burst out, causing the temperature in the valley to drop sharply at this moment. The entire valley turned into an extremely cold area in just a few breaths, and the scenery in front was all frozen!

"I had a sudden enlightenment a few days ago, and I had a lot of inspiration in my mind. I have refined the Heavenly Frost Qi, and my Dou Qi is somewhat special. This Ice Soul Talisman contains all my Dou Qi, which should be helpful for you to refine the Strange Fire."

Seeing the three people looking at him in surprise, Chen Xiao smiled and gave a brief explanation.

The Ice Soul Talisman is the unique feature of the cultivation method he practiced. After careful consideration, Chen Xiao was no longer satisfied with using it as a backup hidden energy source and began to develop more uses for it.

For example, like now, use it all at once!
Although its power is not as strong as a nine-star Dou Wang's self-destruction on the spot, it is not far behind.

What made Chen Xiao most satisfied was that he could control the explosion of the Ice Soul Talisman, and as his own strength grew stronger, the power of the Ice Soul Talisman would also increase accordingly!
This will undoubtedly give him another powerful tactic when fighting against the enemy!

Now that it has been truly put to the test, Chen Xiao is very satisfied with the results.

"It's quite a brilliant idea, and quite powerful. No wonder Queen Medusa rushed to find you a few days ago, but stayed so long before coming out. Sudden enlightenment is truly something you only encounter when you can't. I only had one such enlightenment thirty years ago, and it only lasted half a day before it was interrupted."

It was extremely rare that a look of envy appeared on Cao Xi's face.

Cao Ying's eyes sparkled. In this extremely cold environment, the strange fire was naturally suppressed, and her success rate in refining the strange fire was undoubtedly increased.

Zi Yan's face turned pale from the extremely low temperature. She rolled her eyes, tightened her shoulders, and suddenly had a good idea.

"Chen Xiao, you stay and look after Sister Cao Ying. It's too cold here. I don't like it."

As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared into the valley in a flash, as if she didn't want to stay for a moment.

The little dragon's sudden action made Chen Xiao and Cao Xi stunned, while Cao Ying didn't know what he was thinking about, and his eyes were slightly evasive.

"It's really not possible without someone watching. Zi Yan and I are waiting for your good news outside."

Cao Xi reacted the fastest. He walked up to Chen Xiao, patted him on the shoulder, and strode away with a smile.

Before leaving, he did not forget to add another barrier to this valley.

Watching the two people leave one after another, Chen Xiao shook his head, retracted his gaze, and shifted it to Cao Ying.

"Now, we really can't explain it."

With Cao Ying's intelligence, she naturally understood what Chen Xiao meant.

An unnatural look flashed across her face, and Cao Ying bit her teeth lightly.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I haven't thought of regretting it. You can protect me. I have been refining pills for Zi Yan for the past few days. I need to adjust my condition."

After saying this, Cao Ying tiptoed to the bottom of the Sea Heart Flame and sat cross-legged on the ice.

The chill she felt while sitting down made her regain her sanity quickly. She immediately put aside all distracting thoughts and began to practice her skills to regulate her breathing.

Chen Xiao waited at a distance and did not disturb them.

He has already done his best. If Cao Ying still fails, he will have nothing to say.

The silence lasted for about half an hour before Cao Ying, who was sitting cross-legged under the Sea Heart Flame, slowly opened her eyes.

She had already made preparations, and her condition was at its peak at this moment. Without hesitation, she glanced at Chen Xiao in the distance, then suddenly stretched out her jade hand and grabbed the Sea Heart Flame.

"Oh!"

The dormant Sea Heart Flame was provoked and instinctively erupted.

Even though its energy has been exhausted, the temperature it emits cannot be underestimated.

Under Chen Xiao's gaze, Cao Ying quickly took out an ice-blue pill and swallowed it. Immediately, a thick layer of frost emerged from her body surface, covering her entire body tightly, allowing her arms to withstand the extremely high temperature emitted by the Sea Heart Flame. She was still stirring in the deep blue flame, searching for the origin of the Sea Heart Flame.

After about two minutes, she finally looked happy and quickly withdrew her right hand.

It can be seen that in her palm, she is tightly holding a cluster of flames as big as sea water. This is the origin of the Sea Heart Flame.

Grasping the origin, Cao Ying was more decisive than Chen Xiao had imagined, and stuffed it into her mouth without hesitation.

It was also at this moment that a surge of heat wave, centered on Cao Ying, suddenly burst out in all directions.

This was probably a unique manifestation of the Sea Heart Flame. This heat wave did not give people the stinging sensation that the Fallen Heart Flame and the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire that Chen Xiao had come into contact with had.

The feeling it gives people is more like the extremely hot steam that bursts out after the sea water boils.

The two are similar in nature, but slightly different.

It was also under this extreme heat that the black dress on Cao Ying's body quickly wrinkled until it completely broke and fell off, and was burned to nothingness.

Just like that, a graceful body that formed a sharp contrast with the black dress came into Chen Xiao's sight, releasing enchanting temptation.

Chen Xiao circulated the fighting spirit in his body to resist the heat wave that was coming towards him. Looking at the tempting scenery, the words that the little dragon man had said could not help but emerge in his mind.

"Zi Yan, you are not lying to me!"
