Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

Chapter 229 Xuanhuang Flame, the Troublemaker

"Hey you brat, how come you're so late when you're supposed to be a half-saint?" Xiao Lin reached out and ruffled Xiao Li's hair.

"I just saw something interesting on the way, and since I was late, I managed to force back the surrounding Dou Zun. There were only two low-level Dou Zongs, and they were thoroughly outmaneuvered by my brother, weren't they?" Xiao Li said with a smile.

Xiao Li then looked at the Xuanhuang Flame in the cave and stroked his chin.

"Although the Xuanhuang Flame is at the bottom of the list of strange flames, it is still a strange flame. The Xuanhuang Flame takes ten years to form a spirit, a hundred years to take shape, and a thousand years to become a flame!"

When the Xuanhuang Flame is fully formed, it turns a deep yellow color. In addition to its extremely high temperature, it also has other functions. For example, the luck of the person who subdues the Xuanhuang Flame will be greatly improved, and it is not impossible for them to step on a storage ring while walking.

Therefore, the Xuanhuang Flame also has a mystical and elegant name: the Flame of Destiny.

Xiao Lin walked over to Xiao Li's side: "The Flame of Destiny? Is it really that powerful?"

"How would I know? That's how it's described in the Ranking of Strange Flames and the Records of Wonders of the Continent. I've never absorbed one before. Take it back for Xiao Yanzi or Wan'er to absorb." Xiao Li waved his hand, and an extremely special container appeared in his hand.

This is a container that can temporarily store different flames, but it is ultimately no match for the companion creature of the different flame. However, with Xiao Li, a half-saint, around, it is not a big problem.

This Xuanhuang Flame is equivalent to the Douhuang level, with slightly higher energy than that Netherworld Poison Flame, but its spirituality is not as good.

"Xiao Li, do you think Yan'er's cultivation method is really feasible? Evolving by devouring strange fire? I feel like it's so unreliable. That Medicine Venerable is probably a crazy old man, right?" Xiao Lin said with concern.

"The Burning Technique should work. I met a guy on the road who was practicing an incomplete Burning Technique. You should know him too, Brother. He is Han Feng from the Medicine Sect of the Black Corner Region. He is the disciple and adopted son of the Medicine Venerable."

The Medicine Venerable treated him like his own son, but Han Feng, in order to use the Burning Technique, joined forces with the Soul Palace and caused the Medicine Venerable to be left with only a remnant soul. I have also seen the Burning Technique, and it is indeed a technique that invites death.

Han Feng successfully absorbed the Sea Heart Flame, two Transformation Flames, and countless beast flames after cultivating the incomplete Burning Technique, reaching the low-level Earth Rank.

There's no reason why my trained Xiao Yanzi wouldn't be good enough. This Netherworld Poison Fire is a test for Xiao Yanzi, and I believe he can do it.

Xiao Li said slowly, he had full confidence in Xiao Yan. The Netherworld Poison Flame was even weaker than the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. Back then, Xiao Yan was so reckless that he could refine the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

There's no reason why Xiao Yan, who was trained by Xiao Li, couldn't refine it. It included the marrow cleansing and marrow-refining of a Dou Sheng, the Foundation Establishment Pill, the Foundation Establishment Elixir, medicinal baths, and a series of other good things.

Xiao Yan's older brothers, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, are already close to becoming Dou Wang at Canaan Academy, so there's no reason why Xiao Yan can't.

"You're an alchemist, so you're in charge. Just don't kill Yan'er. By the way, where is Yan'er now?" Xiao Lin asked.

"Is the Medicine Venerable taking Xiao Yan to train in the Monster Beast Mountain Range? What's wrong?" Xiao Li said slowly.

Xiao Lin: "Why do I feel my eyelids twitching? Are you sure you can handle not looking at him?"

Xiao Li: "Huh? My eyelids have been twitching too! Oh my god! Is he up to something?"

"Go back and check on them!"

. . . . . .

The Monster Mountain Range, the treasure trove left behind by Wang Ming.

At this moment, the dimly lit cave was filled with an extremely dense purple mist. Xiao Yan hid in a corner, trembling. He was emitting a pale white light, which enveloped him and prevented the purple mist from getting any closer to him.

"Teacher, what's going on here?!" Xiao Yan said with a bitter face.

"You're asking me? Who should I ask? Who knew that Little Fairy Doctor had the Calamity Poison Body? When you were fighting that rock serpent, you insisted on using the Netherworld Poison Fire. Now look what happened, the Netherworld Poison Fire got on Little Fairy Doctor, and her Calamity Poison Body was activated directly."

"I'm angry," Yao Lao said, his voice weak.

Previously, Yao Lao had suggested that Xiao Yan get some Netherworld Poison Fire beforehand, refine a trace of it to increase his resistance, and prepare for refining the Netherworld Poison Fire in the future.

Yao Lao expended a great deal of effort, using the Bone Spirit Cold Flame to extract a small amount of Netherworld Poison Flame for Xiao Yan to refine. After enduring several days of intense poisoning, Xiao Yan finally refined this wisp of Netherworld Poison Flame, and his Burning Technique was upgraded to the advanced Yellow Rank, approaching the Profound Rank.

Xiao Yan's cultivation level increased by one star, reaching the level of a two-star Dou Shi. Afterwards, he swept through the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, the overlord of Qingshan Town, and unexpectedly established a good relationship with Little Fairy Doctor.

Little Fairy Doctor said she had found a magical cave and invited Xiao Yan to go and see it. As a result, a first-tier rock snake attacked from the cave. Xiao Yan subconsciously used the Netherworld Poison Fire ability, which then contaminated Little Fairy Doctor's body, activating her Calamity Poison Body.

"What should we do now, teacher?" Xiao Yan asked. He had just tried and refined a wisp of Netherworld Poison Fire, which gave him a high resistance to poison, but the potent poison emanating from Little Fairy Doctor's body still caused Xiao Yan's skin to rot.

"What to do? Wait for your second master to come. The original poison of the Calamity Poison Body can't be touched unless you completely refine the Netherworld Poison Fire, or she successfully controls the Calamity Poison Body."

"Little Yanzi, this little girl is off-limits to everyone else, but maybe you can. If you successfully refine the Netherworld Poison Fire, you might be able to get intimate with her. Then, hehehehe!"

The old doctor, who was perfectly serious just a moment ago, completely changed the next moment.

"You old lecher, why don't you think of a solution? I'm about to die!" Xiao Yan roared.

"What can I do? If I were still alive, rescuing you would be easy. But now I not only have to protect you with the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, but I also have to endure your verbal attacks. It's too hard for me. Let's wait for your second master to come," Yao Lao said with heartache.

"Second Master, come quick! Your little grandson is going to die!" Xiao Yan trembled in the corner.

"Huh? The poisonous fog seems to have thinned out a bit? Is that girl absorbing the poisonous fog? No wonder she has the Calamity Poison Body." The old apothecary looked at the white-clad figure lying in the center of the poisonous fog.

"What?! Absorb this deadly poisonous fog?! Little Fairy Doctor! Don't absorb it! You'll be poisoned to death! Ouch! Teacher, why are you hitting me?!"

Xiao Yan said, holding his head.

"Are you stupid? The Calamity Poison Body can advance by consuming poison, and can become a powerful figure in just a few years. Poison mist is a huge supplement for her, and it is the original poison emitted by herself."

"In my opinion, if she wakes up, her cultivation will likely improve significantly! It's not impossible for her cultivation to catch up with yours directly," said the old medicine master, stroking his beard.

"Huh? That's amazing? Then why isn't she awake yet?"

"There's too much poisonous fog. You've probably overexerted yourself. It'll take some time to digest," the old medicine doctor said uncertainly.

"Damn, where did all this poisonous fog come from?!" A voice came from outside the cave.

Suddenly, the poisonous mist in the cave began to flow rapidly out of the cave. After a few breaths, the poisonous mist inside the cave disappeared, and the Bone Spirit Cold Flame on Xiao Yan's body also disappeared.

"The poisonous fog is gone! Hahahaha, I was just destined to survive!" Xiao Yan stood up and put his hands on his hips.

"Little Fairy Doctor!" Xiao Yan immediately came to Little Fairy Doctor's side, but was stopped by someone.

"I was wondering why my eyelids kept twitching. You brat, you've caused me so much trouble! Where did you get this Calamity Poison Body?" Xiao Li grabbed Xiao Yan by the back of the neck and lifted him up.

"Hehe, I just accidentally activated my friend's Calamity Poison Body," Xiao Yan said awkwardly, rubbing his nose.
