Battle Through the Heavens: Reborn into the Xiao Family, Starting with Xiao Xuan's Inheritance

Chapter 78 Xiao Xuan Refines Alchemy; His Physical Body, a Four-Star Dou Ling, is Comparable to a Dou Huang.

Xiao Yi carefully took away twenty drops of Earth Core Tempering Milk.

Not a drop more, not a drop less.

They left this place with Xiao Xuan.

When Xiao Xuan arrived at the entrance of the underground lair, he simply waved his sleeve, sealing the entire underground lair shut.

Although Xiao Xuan's strength is not as great as it was at its peak, he is still a true Dou Sheng powerhouse.

The seal he personally cast is one that few people on the Dou Qi Continent can break now.

"Let's go, little one—"

"Hurry up and absorb this Earth Core Tempering Milk, otherwise it will become waste liquid—"

Xiao Yi nodded.

In a flash, he and Xiao Xuan arrived at a secluded place.

Looking at the crystal-clear, pure Earth Core Tempering Milk in the jade bottle in his hand, Xiao Yi was extremely excited.

"Ancestor, if I'm not mistaken, the Earth Core Tempering Milk contains such pure energy that if I were to consume it directly, I'm afraid I would explode and die—"

Although Xiao Yi was very excited, he still looked up at Xiao Xuan and asked softly.

Xiao Xuan nodded with satisfaction upon hearing Xiao Yi's answer: "Good lad, you've matured quite a bit these days—"

"If you were to consume this Earth Core Tempering Milk directly, you certainly wouldn't be able to fully absorb its pure energy at your current level—"

"Therefore, it is necessary to use some medicinal liquids or pills to neutralize the energy of the Earth Core Tempering Milk—"

Upon hearing Xiao Xuan's words, Xiao Yi nodded, his brows furrowing slightly.

The pills that neutralize the energy of the Earth Core Tempering Milk are a real headache for Xiao Yi.

After all, Yao Lao and Xiao Yan are currently undergoing training, and without Yao Lao, Xiao Yi would not be able to find the neutralizing medicine in the short term.

Seeing Xiao Yi's tense expression, Xiao Xuan could roughly guess what Xiao Yi was thinking.

Xiao Xuan slowly stepped forward, gently patted Xiao Yi on the back of the head, and said softly, "Little guy, why are you thinking about the Medicine Venerable now?"

"You usually need me to fight, but now you think I'm incapable of making medicine?"

"Although I am merely a martial artist, I do possess some knowledge of alchemy—"

Xiao Xuan looked confident and then threw a note at Xiao Yi.

"Silly boy, all you need to do is find the medicinal herbs listed here, and I will take this opportunity to teach you a little about alchemy—"

Xiao Yi took the note and glanced at it. He saw that it simply listed three kinds of medicinal herbs.

Candlewort, Snake Flower, Buddha's Flame Root—

Judging from its name, this herb doesn't seem particularly valuable; it's likely that the alchemy department has it in their herb library.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Yi immediately went to the Alchemy Department.

With Elder Huo's help, the three medicinal herbs were obtained very smoothly.

"Ancestor, the medicinal herbs have been gathered—"

Xiao Yi placed the medicinal herbs one by one in front of Xiao Xuan and spoke softly.

Xiao Xuan nodded.

Immediately, Xiao Xuan slightly raised his hand, and the three medicinal herbs were lifted up and suspended in the air.

"Ancestor, what kind of elixir are you preparing to refine—"

"May I take a look at the prescription?"

Xiao Yi asked with great curiosity, after all, this was the first time he had seen Xiao Xuan refine medicine.

Xiao Xuan shook his head: "The pill formula?"

"I don't have that thing—"

Immediately, Xiao Xuan ignored Xiao Yi and began refining medicine.

Xiao Xuan activated the unknown red flame within his body, calcining and extracting the three medicinal herbs, which then fused together.

"Little guy—"

"Although I am not a professional alchemist, I believe that alchemy should not be limited to prescriptions—"

"For example, the pill I'm making for you today contains three ingredients that have the effect of soothing energy and harmonizing the medicinal power—"

"So all we need to do is extract its medicinal properties into a liquid and then blend them together—"

As Xiao Xuan spoke, his hands never stopped moving.

In a short while, the essence of the three medicinal herbs floating in the air was completely extracted under the scorching of Xiao Xuan's flames.

"Little guy, watch closely—"

"The most crucial step in alchemy is to fuse the medicinal properties of all the herbs, making them a unified whole—"

"And in this step, the strength of one's soul power is the most crucial factor; one needs to use soul power to sense the optimal time for fusion!"

"Like right now!"

Xiao Xuan said in a low voice, and then he raised his hand and squeezed, actually squeezing the three different colored liquids together.

A pool of bright red, brand-new medicinal liquid formed.

"Look, the elixir is now complete—"

"Let's call this liquid neutralizing solution—"

Xiao Xuan smiled and spoke in a deep voice.

Xiao Yi was completely dumbfounded when he saw Xiao Xuan refining medicine.

Because Xiao Xuan's process of refining medicine could only be described as "crude".

It was precisely because Xiao Xuan's soul power was so strong that he could clearly perceive the state of the medicinal herbs and then make the best judgment.

This kind of alchemy technique is something that no one else could do.

Only someone with an Emperor-level soul like Xiao Xuan could act so casually—

"Little one, the process was a bit simple—"

"But this medicine is all essence. If you take it together with the Earth Core Tempering Milk, I guarantee you'll be able to absorb all the energy from the Earth Core Tempering Milk—"

Xiao Xuan's lips curled up slightly, clearly very satisfied with the medicinal liquid he had extracted.

"Don't worry, as a descendant of the Xiao clan, how could I possibly harm you—"

"It has to be you. A thousand years ago, no one on this continent would have had the chance to taste the elixir I personally refined—"

As soon as Xiao Xuan finished speaking, the red liquid floating in the air slowly flew towards Xiao Yi under Xiao Xuan's guidance.

Xiao Yi closed his eyes and steeled his resolve!

Take the Earth Core Tempering Milk and the red neutralizing liquid together!

He immediately circulated his internal energy cultivation techniques and absorbed the pure energy from the Earth Core Tempering Milk.

As the Earth Core Tempering Milk entered his body, golden runes instantly appeared all over Xiao Yi's body, including his neck, forehead, and face.

It is further tempering Xiao Yi's meridians.

At the same time, Xiao Yi clearly felt the energy contained in the Earth Core Tempering Milk in his body rapidly expanding, impacting every bone and meridian in his body.

There was also a neutralizing medicine personally refined by Xiao Xuan to enhance Xiao Yi's physical functions.

This allows Xiao Yi to absorb the pure and domineering power of the Earth Core Tempering Milk more quickly and steadily!

As Xiao Yi absorbed the energy of the Earth Core Tempering Milk, it gradually became a part of his body.

Xiao Yi could clearly feel that his physical strength had reached a new level, and his internal fighting spirit had become thicker and more concentrated.

Xiao Xuan nodded with satisfaction as he watched the heart fire mark appearing on Xiao Yi's forehead become even more rosy.

"The Earth Core Tempering Milk is truly excellent—"

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yi's breathing gradually stabilized.

"Not bad, not bad, you've broken through to the fourth-star Dou Ling level in one fell swoop—"

"The body's meridians are also further refined—"

"It's no exaggeration to say that your body is now comparable to a Dou Huang—with this level of physical strength, you have a much better chance of subduing the Fallen Heart Flame."

Xiao Xuan nodded in satisfaction and spoke in a deep voice.

Xiao Yi slowly got up, feeling the changes in his body, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

"Based on the timeline, the seal restricting the Fallen Heart Flame has weakened considerably—"

"It's time for us to make our move—"

"Little one, are you ready?"
