Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 108 Heavenly Flame Refining Tower

Upon arriving at the location of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, what comes into view is a sunken terrain. Within that sunken area, an extremely large black tower is buried deep underground, with only a section of its spire and a pitch-black entrance visible above the ground.

Xiao Jue and Hu Jia entered together. Sensing the invisible heart fire within the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, Xiao Jue raised an eyebrow and walked to the passage.

"Dean!"

The two inner court instructors guarding this place had already been notified by Elder Su Qian. One of them, a blond boy who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, was Xiao Jue, the honorary dean of the inner court and a seventh-grade alchemist.

"Um."

Nodding, Xiao Jue led Hu Jia directly into the passage and arrived at the sixth floor of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

"The inner fire here is too strong." Hu Jia bit her lip. She had wood-attribute fighting spirit, so she was not very resistant to inner fire.

"It's alright, let's find a training room first." Xiao Jue led Hu Jia to an empty training room, only considering Hu Jia's strength. If it were Xiao Yu or Xiao Mei, Xiao Jue would definitely have taken them directly to the tenth floor.

Hu Jia looked at Xiao Jue and asked, "What should we do now?"

"Please sit down first."

Xiao Jue lay down directly, his clothes instantly burned to nothing by the flames of the Yin-Yang Twin Flames, and teased, "Sit on top and move yourself, then take the Azure Nether Pill, and leave the rest to me."

Hu Jia blushed and glared at Xiao Jue. She suspected that Xiao Jue was lying to her and just wanted her to stay with him like this in the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, but she couldn't say it outright.

Pouting, Hu Jia still straddled Xiao Jue and asked, "Can I really take the Azure Nether Pill? It's a seventh-grade pill, I'm still a little afraid that the medicinal power will rupture my meridians and battle crystals."

"Don't worry, trust me, as long as it doesn't tear, it'll be fine."

"Oh." Hu Jia nodded her little head, took out the jade bottle, and the Azure Nether Pill inside was flashing with a greenish-blue light. She tried to escape, but Xiao Jue grabbed her and stuffed it into Hu Jia's mouth.

"Waaaaah!"

Xiao Jue picked up Hu Jia and sped up, making her cry loudly. During the Yin-Yang Harmony, he activated the Yin-Yang Technique, guiding the battle qi within both of them to merge and refine the medicinal power of the Azure Nether Pill. Most of the medicinal power was directly absorbed by Xiao Jue.

However, a small portion of the Dou Qi was also incorporated into Hu Jia's Dou Qi. Xiao Jue also drew upon the heart fire of the Fallen Heart Flame to refine and purify his and Hu Jia's Dou Qi.

"Daddy~" Hu Jia looked at Xiao Jue with teary eyes. She remembered that Xiao Yu had begged for mercy in the same way before, and Xiao Yu stopped crying soon after.

But what she didn't know was that this made Xiao Jue even more excited. At that time, Xiao Yu didn't stop because Xiao Jue stopped, but because Xiao Yu had fainted.

"Ugh!"

Hu Jia's eyes rolled back, and her body went limp in Xiao Jue's arms. One-tenth of the Azure Nether Pill's power directly helped Hu Jia break through two stars of strength and reach the five-star Dou Ling level.

The remaining Qingming Pill's medicinal power was refined by Hu Jia's Dou Qi and then absorbed by Xiao Jue, drawing out the medicinal power that Xiao Jue had previously stored deep within his body after consuming the Earth Core Pill. With the strength of a five-star Dou Wang, he broke through four stars in succession and directly reached the peak of Dou Wang.

"Hiss, the breakthrough was a bit too fast."

Although the fighting spirit within his body was not unstable, Xiao Jue had a feeling that he could not fully control it. However, after a few more days of familiarization, he would be able to stabilize his realm.

Xiao Jue changed Hu Jia's clothes, but did not leave the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the ground and began to cultivate. He rarely cultivated normally like this, but now that Hu Jia was unconscious, he was afraid that she would break down if he continued like this, so he let her go for the time being.

When Hu Jia woke up, he realized that he had broken through to the fifth-level Dou Ling. Overjoyed, he immediately switched to cultivating the low-level earth-rank wood-attribute technique, Qingmu Jue. He was then rewarded by Xiao Jue once again.

This time, Hu Jia did not faint. She asked Xiao Jue for some pills, crushed and applied the Grade 3 Injury Recovery Pill, and then left with Xiao Jue as if nothing had happened.

"Fallen Heartflame..."

On the way back, Xiao Jue was deep in thought. As expected of the legendary cultivation cheat device, to be honest, for a moment, Xiao Jue had the idea of ​​having two Fallen Heart Flames, one for him and one for Xiao Yan.

However, he did not cultivate the Burning Technique, so such a thing was obviously unrealistic. In the end, he would leave that nascent Fallen Heart Flame to Canaan Academy.

As for the mature Fallen Heart Flame, Xiao Jue plans to use the Yin-Yang Twin Flames to devour its sub-flames, at which point the Yin-Yang Twin Flames will also possess the characteristics of the Fallen Heart Flame.

Not only the Fallen Heart Flame, but also the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, the Bone Spirit Cold Flame of the Old Man of Medicine, the Sea Heart Flame in Han Feng's hand, and other strange flames that he may obtain in the future, Xiao Jue plans to use the Yin-Yang Twin Flames to devour the sub-flames of those strange flames.

Although the Yin-Yang Twin Flames are ranked twenty-first, they absorb the energy of a ninth-tier magic core, making them comparable to the top ten flames on the Flame Ranking and even stronger than the Bone Spirit Cold Flame.

If the Yin-Yang Twin Flames absorb all the sub-flames of the different flames in the future, even if they cannot compare to the Divine Flame, they will probably not be weaker than the Void Devouring Flame and the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

"Dean."

The latest novel is first published here!

When he returned to the outside of the pavilion, a silver-haired woman was waiting there, and she respectfully bowed and greeted Xiao Jue.

"Han Yue?" Xiao Jue asked, "Is there something you need?"

Han Yue respectfully said, "I encountered a Snow Demon Sky Ape in the Monster Mountain Range, which is guarding the Earth Core Tempering Milk. I would like to exchange my location for a portion of the Earth Core Tempering Milk with the Dean."

Xiao Jue said to Hu Jia, "You should go back first."

"Okay." Hu Jia replied, greeted Han Yue, and then went into the pavilion.

Earth Core Tempering Milk, born beneath the earth, is originally pure earth energy that, after being compressed over the years, transforms into mist over a hundred years, known as Earth Core Mist. It has the miraculous effect of solidification. After a thousand years of condensation, it becomes liquid. If the quality is even higher, it is called Earth Core Tempering Milk, which has the divine effect of cleansing marrow and refining bones.

Furthermore, because of its extremely pure and vast earth power, it can even help some people who have reached the peak of their level to break through the barriers between advancements, although there is naturally a considerable chance of failure.

Generally speaking, due to the harsh conditions required for the formation of this type of geothermal quenching emulsion, very few people have actually encountered it.

Xiao Jue said, "Take me to find the Earth Core Tempering Milk. After we get it and refine it into pills, I will naturally share some with you."

"Yes, thank you, Dean." Han Yue was overjoyed. She originally only wanted a portion of Earth Core Tempering Milk, but Xiao Jue was going to give her a pill made from it. How could she not be excited?

Han Yue's current strength is at the six-star Dou Ling level. In less than a year, she will be able to break through to the peak of Dou Ling. At that time, if she takes the pills made from the Earth Core Tempering Milk, she will have a chance to break through to Dou Wang.

Xiao Jue possesses two types of pill formulas made from Earth Core Tempering Milk: a Grade 5 pill called Body Tempering Pill and a Grade 6 intermediate pill called Marrow Cleansing Pill.

The former is made from diluted Earth Core Tempering Milk, while the latter is made using real Earth Core Tempering Milk. They have similar effects, but the latter is more potent.
