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

Chapter 72 Sudden Enlightenment, Burning Star Technique

Xiao Yan patted his forehead, suddenly remembering some things that happened last night.

Stone Desert City is located near the Tagor Desert, and mercenaries have a huge demand for healing medicine.

Alchemists rarely come to places like the border where living conditions are extremely harsh. They only resell the materials they collect, eventually transporting them to the interior.

Therefore, the price of materials will be much cheaper.

"Take me around Stone Desert City," Xiao Yan said to Xue Lan after thinking for a moment.

Two of the three objectives of this trip have been achieved; all that remains is to find Qinglin.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to pour out the water." Xue Lan carried the basin of water and ran towards the door.

A moment later, the two left the Desert Iron Mercenary Group and strolled around Stone Desert City.

Due to the merger of the Sand Mercenary Group into the Desert Iron Mercenary Group, the personnel relocation has resulted in a significantly larger flow of people in Stone Desert City today compared to the past.

Xiao Yan paid no attention to these skilled mercenaries, but was more concerned about the beggars on the street.

Occasionally, I would look at the medicinal herbs and magic cores on the stalls, hoping to find a bargain or a treasure.

Near the Tagor Desert, there are occasional instances of human women being violated by snake people.

Normally, snake people do not get pregnant when they have relations with humans. However, there is always an extremely rare chance that a woman who has relations with a snake person will get pregnant and give birth.

However, although they can give birth, these babies with human and snake-human bloodlines generally do not live past the age of two.

Because of this characteristic, Xiao Yan would easily spot Qing Lin if she appeared.

Unfortunately, Xiao Yan spent a day wandering around Stone Desert City but did not find any half-snake people who could grow to the size of Qing Lin.

Back in his room in the evening, Xiao Yan quickly came to his senses.

Since Qinglin was able to be born and survive, it must have had a mother.

The information only stated that the baby was unlikely to survive, but did not mention that the mother died directly.

Perhaps, Qinglin is still being raised by her mother and is barely able to make ends meet.

In this way, finding such a person in Stone Desert City is like finding a needle in a haystack.

After all, the offspring of snake people and humans are extremely hated by humans, and no mother would easily reveal her child's identity.

"We can only deal with Qinglin's matter slowly. Stone Desert City is currently under the control of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group. Once it appears, we can locate it immediately."

Xiao Yan was powerless to do anything about something that didn't have a specific timeframe.

Having shaken off the distracting thoughts in his mind, Xiao Yan sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.

The stars in the night sky above Stone Desert City were exceptionally bright, and the cultivation of the Three Thousand Stars Technique proceeded very smoothly.

As this technique was activated, Xiao Yan, relying on his own cultivation experience, connected it with the Great Burning Technique.

Speaking of which, the cultivation of the Three Thousand Stars Technique involves gathering the power of stars to condense three thousand blazing flames, which can be considered a specific technique of the Great Burning Technique for condensing strange flames.

More than half a month later.

[As your experience in cultivating the Three Thousand Stars Technique and the Great Burning Technique continues to increase, you have had an epiphany and have comprehended the Burning Stars Technique.]

The Burning Star Technique combines the features of the Three Thousand Star Technique and the Great Burning Technique. It is a technique that can absorb the power of stars and condense three thousand blazing flames. Moreover, further refinement of the technique has allowed the Burning Star Technique to reach the mid-level of the Profound Rank.

A muffled hum came from Xiao Yan's body. His cultivation technique had been upgraded to the Burning Star Technique. Xiao Yan's absorption of the energy of heaven and earth had become even more terrifying. Strands of gray threads condensed from the air.

In addition, a trace of even more concentrated silver star power merged into Xiao Yan's body.

The initial evolution of the Burning Technique involved absorbing powerful alien flames to upgrade itself.

Whether it's beast fire or strange fire, the more terrifying its energy, the greater its potential for upgrading.

This is also a major reason why the Burning Technique can advance significantly after devouring a high-ranking Strange Flame on the Strange Flame Ranking.

From the fact that Emperor Flame ranks first on the Strange Flame Ranking, we can know that this ranking comes after Burning Technique.

The ranking of various different flames depends on their power, not on anything else.

The second Fallen Heart Flame near the soul of Venerable Heavenly Fire, and the strange fire in the Strange Fire Plaza of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's cave, could not be used by the Burning Technique for advancement because those strange fires were extremely weak and had very little energy.

However, with his extraordinary comprehension, Xiao Yan's path to upgrading his cultivation techniques is much broader.

With his extraordinary comprehension, he can create a technique even more powerful than the Burning Technique, with an initial level surpassing the low-level Yellow Rank "New Burning Technique".

With his extraordinary comprehension, he condensed a strange fire on his own. After some nurturing, this strange fire could play a huge role, allowing his cultivation technique to evolve significantly.

Finally, there is the most traditional method: devouring alien flames.

After circulating the Burning Star Technique for a while, the star power that had been gathered over many days condensed into a purple stream of energy.

This is the prototype of the Three Thousand Burning Flames. The highly concentrated purple energy streams are the seeds of the Three Thousand Burning Flames.

Purple energy flowed around Xiao Yan's black and white battle qi. With each use of his technique, the purple light intensified, making Xiao Yan's battle qi appear magnificent.

After cultivating for half an hour, when he could no longer absorb the power of the stars, Xiao Yan slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In this way, he only needs to focus on cultivating battle qi and soul power as before.

Just then, the little bird that the old medicine master was living in by the bed slowly spoke, reminding him, "But the day to deliver the Blood Clotting Powder to Wutan City is fast approaching."

"I need to hurry." Xiao Yan rolled out of bed and picked up a storage ring from the table.

This contains materials that my two older brothers have been collecting over the past two weeks.

It contains the treasures collected over many years by many mercenary groups in Stone Desert City, and was purchased with all the efforts of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group. The quantity and the rarity of the medicinal materials are such that even Ya Fei could not procure them in a short period of time.

"There are so many fire-attribute medicinal herbs and magic cores! Upgrading the Xuanhuang Flame and Yin-Yang Twin Flames is hopeful. And there are also materials for three Qi Gathering Powders. Hopefully, my luck won't be too bad."

Xiao Yan rubbed his hands together and instantly took out a medicine cauldron from his storage ring, beginning to prepare the Qi Gathering Powder for Little Fairy Doctor to use when she broke through to the Dou Zhe level.

The old alchemist flapped his wings and flew into the air: "The Qi Gathering Powder is no ordinary pill. A normal fourth-grade alchemist usually has a success rate of less than 50%."

Xiao Yan naturally knew the difficulty of refining this Qi Gathering Powder.

It is said that even Gu He, a sixth-grade alchemist, only has a 70% success rate.

However, with his extraordinary comprehension, Xiao Yan's mastery of the Qi Gathering Powder formula had already reached a perfect level.

With the powerful strange fire and fire control ability, refining a fourth-grade Qi Gathering Powder is not too difficult.

However, it does pose a certain challenge in terms of consuming battle qi.

Soon, Yao Lao witnessed Xiao Yan's genius-level alchemy skills.

With such powerful fire control abilities, Yao Lao firmly believed that if Xiao Yan had enough Dou Qi, it would be very possible for him to refine a fifth-grade pill.
