Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 33 Heaven-Defying Enlightenment, Transformation into Emperor Flame

"Teacher, the concept of a strange fire is a bit too far removed from my abilities. Shouldn't you prepare a beast fire for me? Perhaps this beast fire could help the Burning Technique evolve," Xiao Yan said, seizing the opportunity.

The old apothecary pondered for a moment: "That is possible. However, Wutan City is too small. Even if it is the largest auction house in your city, it is still uncertain whether it has a medicine-refining cauldron, let alone a rare item like beast fire."

"It's alright, they'll bring it to us sooner or later." Xiao Yan wasn't in a hurry.

The old apothecary waved his hand: "We'll talk about it later. This time I only refined gold coins for storage rings, medicine cauldrons, and medicinal herbs."

With his eyes slightly narrowed, Yao Lao picked up the Purple Leaf Orchid with his left hand, and the Bone Spirit Cold Flame on his palm suddenly surged up.

In an instant, the temperature in the room rose significantly.

The old man remained calm; refining Foundation Establishment Elixir was a piece of cake for him.

One by one, medicinal herbs were thrown into the flames, and the old doctor also introduced Xiao Yan to the detailed characteristics and conditions for the birth of strange flames such as the Xuanhuang Flame and the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame.

Xiao Yan listened attentively, his dark eyes fixed on the Bone Spirit Cold Flame. Recalling how the Burning Technique fused multiple flames to reach its peak, a sword cultivator's words suddenly came to mind—he himself was the strongest sword.

Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask himself: Why couldn't his own fire-attribute Dou Qi be cultivated into the strongest flame in the world?

In an instant, Xiao Yan's heart trembled.

It takes a long time for a strange fire to be born from the heavens and earth, and even after a long period of growth, it cannot make this strange fire invincible.

However, if someone wants to reach the pinnacle in the Dou Qi Continent, given enough opportunity, it doesn't take too long...

Based on your knowledge of the Golden Emperor's Burning Heaven Flame and the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, and through deduction of information about the strange flames, you have had an epiphany; you have comprehended the Burning Technique 2.0.

[Burning Flame Technique 2.0: Retains the fusion effect of the Burning Flame Technique 1.0 with a different kind of fire. The advantage of this technique is that it allows the cultivator to transform into the heavens and earth, nurturing their fire-attribute battle qi towards a different kind of fire. The type and intensity of the different kind of fire nurtured are greatly related to the cultivator's comprehension, strength, and opportunities.]

"Heaven and earth, in their primordial chaos, gave birth to gods and spirits; the raging fire of the great furnace refined true gold. Stars illuminated the ancient moon, and the unknown chaos concealed profound mysteries..."

Xiao Yan muttered incantations to himself, but stood rooted to the spot like a statue.

As Xiao Yan entered a state of stillness, the surrounding air trembled violently, and with a hum, the energy of heaven and earth surged forth.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yan seemed to transform into a colossal black hole, continuously absorbing the surging energy of heaven and earth that was frantically pouring into his body.

"What just happened?" Yao Lao was stunned. He was giving a lecture when Xiao Yan suddenly broke through...

Looking at the scale of the energy of heaven and earth, even the breakthroughs of Great Dou Master, Dou Spirit, and Dou King seem far inferior!

Yao Lao was truly frightened. If Xiao Yan were to absorb this terrifying energy, which was enough to allow a peak Dou Wang to break through to Dou Huang, he would be burst out of his skin.

Ya Fei and Gu Ni, the two people in charge of the Mittel Auction House, also looked at the room where Xiao Yan was in astonishment.

"What happened to this energy of heaven and earth?" Ya Fei asked in surprise, as she didn't know much about cultivation.

Gu Ni had never seen such terrifying energy fluctuations before: "Could it be that the alchemist has advanced in rank? Or is he refining a terrifying elixir?"

Even Yao Lao couldn't understand such a strange thing, let alone Gu Ni.

"Make arrangements immediately; no one is allowed to approach this room." Gu Ni quickly retreated.

Regardless of the reason, this scale of celestial energy is extremely important to everyone inside. The Mittel Auction House just needs to do its job.

The instant Xiao Yan attained enlightenment, the surge of energy in the world was like a boulder being thrown into a calm lake, creating terrifying waves.

At this moment, the Burning Technique was activated at a terrifying speed, and a fierce suction force surged out from his body.

With the combined effect of a surging surge and a frenzied absorption, the mottled energy in the world actually formed a luminous energy screen a few feet around Xiao Yan, which was extremely dazzling.

Yao Lao hovered in mid-air, his brows furrowed as he looked at the situation Xiao Yan had created.

"What's this little guy up to now? He dares to absorb such mottled energy directly?"

The quantity of this energy from heaven and earth is beyond description; it contains too many impurities and must be refined and purified through the meridians to be fully absorbed. Otherwise, it will pollute the battle qi that one has painstakingly cultivated.

Xiao Yan at this moment clearly does not possess the ability to refine such a massive amount of天地能量 (heaven and earth energy).

The old man frowned, slowly exhaled, suppressed his anxiety, and quietly watched Xiao Yan, ready to help at any moment.

While Yao Lao was filled with doubt and anxiety, Xiao Yan was completely unaware of the changes happening in the outside world. He wanted to advance his Dou Qi to the level of a different kind of fire, and one day reach the level of the Emperor Flame, and then surpass the level of the Emperor Flame.

Countless energies of heaven and earth circulated along the path of the Burning Technique. In the midst of this high-speed circulation, a wondrous feeling, as if existing within one's soul, surged within Xiao Yan's heart.

Just as Xiao Yan's mind was further immersed in this wonderful feeling, the energy of heaven and earth around the Mittel Auction House began to surge wildly.

It then spun rapidly, eventually forming a spiral funnel, smaller at the bottom and larger at the top, above Xiao Yan's head. The smaller end connected to the top of Xiao Yan's head, frantically pouring the enormous energy into Xiao Yan's body.

With such a massive influx of energy, Xiao Yan's soul power continued to compress the surging battle qi, and noticeable changes finally appeared within his body.

A wisp of dark yellow flame rose from within the nebula-like Dou Zhi Qi vortex, the flame flickering like a candle in the wind, threatening to go out at any moment.

However, the intense heat carried by this small flame should not be underestimated, as even Xiao Yan's powerful body was affected.

The moment the flame was born, Xiao Yan's body temperature suddenly soared, and his rosy cheeks seemed to be a prelude to self-immolation.

"What exactly happened?" The old medicine master was completely bewildered and had no interest in refining medicine at all.

Lost in thought for a moment, the violent energy released by the demonic core reacted violently with the medicinal liquid from the calcination of the herbs. The old doctor noticed this and quickly raised his hand to condense a protective layer around Xiao Yan's body, isolating him from all external sounds.

Just as Yao Lao finished doing all this, the Foundation Establishment Elixir in his palm failed to be refined and exploded.

The immense force of the explosion caused the entire room to tremble violently.

Hearing the sounds from inside the room, Gu Ni's eyes narrowed slightly, and he murmured, "It seems a third-grade alchemist failed in his alchemy attempt."
