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

Chapter 122 Su Qian's Misunderstanding

In the world of pills, eighth-grade pills are considered to be at the very top of the pyramid. Although there is only one grade difference between eighth-grade and seventh-grade pills, it is a world of difference.

Eighth-grade pills possess spirituality, and even some basic intelligence; in other words, eighth-grade pills possess their own vitality!

It can be said that it can already be considered a living being!

Moreover, the classification of eighth-grade pills is more rigorous than imagined. Their quality cannot be determined by the naked eye, but by the color of the pill's radiance!

The higher the quality of the pill, the more colors of pill lightning it will attract when it takes shape. An eighth-grade pill with three-colored pill lightning is enough to show that Xiao Jue is already a true eighth-grade alchemist, and he is by no means the worst among eighth-grade alchemists.

Putting away the utterly useless Destiny Pill, Xiao Jue let out a long breath, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips. He had suddenly thought of something fun: to have Elder Yao take the Destiny Pill.

Xiao Jue certainly didn't want to harm Yao Lao. Instead, he would first take the Heavenly Fate Pill, and then after Xiao Jue obtained the Dou Sheng's remains, Yao Lao would separate the physical body and soul and recreate a new body for him.

If Yao Lao had the strength of a Nine-Turn Dou Zun by their side, Xiao Jue would find everything much easier.

After putting away the Heavenly Fate Pill and seeing that the Heavenly Demon Puppet remained unchanged after absorbing the three-colored pill lightning, Xiao Jue put away the Heavenly Demon Puppet and the Yin-Yang Cauldron, took a fifth-grade Qi Cultivation Pill, and left.

Just as Xiao Jue returned home, everyone was there, including little Zi Yan. Overjoyed, Xiao Jue immediately led everyone to a large bed and began their activities.

Ruolin and Yaoyue were still a little shy, but the others accepted what Xiao Jue did. However, they still looked down on Xiao Jue for taking Ziyan down as well.

Although they knew that Zi Yan was a magical beast, and that her real age was older than Xiao Jue's and even older than Ruo Lin's.

After learning that Xiao Jue had refined an eighth-grade pill, Xiao Jue fought against seven opponents and still maintained his invincible status, making him impossible to defeat!

The revelry lasted for two whole days before it ended. They would faint and then wake up to continue, with seven people enough to take turns.

Zi Yan was quite dissatisfied that Xiao Jue didn't take her to the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower. However, after Xiao Jue took out hundreds of high-grade medicinal herbs and refined them all into pills for her, filling hundreds of jade bottles, she happily rode on Xiao Jue's back.

……

"With the Yin-Yang Technique, who would cultivate that trashy Burning Technique?"

Xiao Jue walked out of his house feeling refreshed. After arriving at the Xiao Clan's residence and inquiring, he learned that Xiao Yan was cultivating in the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower and that Xiao Ning was not at the Xiao Clan's residence. So he went directly to the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

Xiao Yan is now famous throughout the Inner Academy. After breaking through to the Seven-Star Dou Ling realm, he has been challenging the strongest individuals on the Power Ranking.

Relying on the secret techniques of Heavenly Fire Three Transformations, Three Thousand Thunder Movements, and Flame Dividing Wave Ruler, Xiao Yan directly defeated Lin Yan and others. Finally, relying on the Azure Flame Explosion, even Liu Qing and Lin Xiuya, who were ranked third on the Strong Ranking, lost to him.

Although Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing were half-step Dou Wang, Xiao Yan had learned the Three Thousand Thunder Movement and Azure Flame Explosion. After using the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire, their Dou Qi was almost the same as theirs, so they were naturally no match for Xiao Yan.

Arriving outside the No. 2 training room on the sixth floor of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, Xiao Jue used his soul power to awaken Xiao Yan and pushed open the door to enter.

"Not bad, second on the ranking list." Xiao Jue sat down with a smile and said, "However, I can't give you Zi Yan's first place on the ranking list. I still have a use for training room number one."

Xiao Yan chuckled and said, "Let's forget about being number one on the Power Ranking. I wouldn't be a match for two Ancient Void Dragons at the Dou Wang level."

Xiao Yan asked, "What do you need me for?"

Xiao Jue sat down and said, "I have refined an eighth-grade pill, the Heavenly Fate Pill, with three-colored pill lightning."

"What?!"

"What?!"

Xiao Yan and Yao Lao exclaimed in surprise at the same time. A seventeen-year-old eighth-grade alchemist—this was probably a once-in-a-lifetime case.

The historical gaps in the Dou Qi Continent are quite severe. Many things from ancient times have not been recorded. For example, the current eight ancient clans, no, the seven ancient clans, were quite common in ancient times. The Soul Clan was even said by Zhu Kun to be something he had never heard of.

Even the records of the last Dou Di, Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, have not been preserved. Many things were done by these Dou Di families, after all, they are the current masters of the Dou Qi Continent and do not want others to know that they were also very weak in ancient times.

Xiao Jue told Yao Lao about the effects of the Heavenly Fate Pill and his own thoughts. Yao Lao immediately frowned and refused Xiao Jue's offer.

"Leaving aside whether a single Grade 8 Three-Colored Thunder Pill can restore my peak fighting spirit after I am resurrected, I am absolutely certain that I can be brought back to life. Why would I risk using the Heavenly Fate Pill?"

"If we encounter danger, we can take the Heavenly Fate Pill, but let's forget about trying this."

After a moment's thought, Xiao Jue said, "Then why don't we find someone to test it out first? I know a weak Dou Zun soul who is trapped in Canaan Academy and isn't even an enemy."

"Alright." Yao Lao nodded and asked, "Where is that Dou Zun's soul?"

"The underground magma world of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower."

The latest novel is first published here!

Yao Lao raised an eyebrow and said, "You're not planning to just take away the Fallen Heart Flame, are you? The dean of Canaan Academy is no pushover. If the Xiao Clan's Dou Sheng behind you doesn't make a move, he can slap you, the honorary dean, to death."

Xiao Jue chuckled, "You'll find out when the time comes."

……

After taking the Bone Flame Ring and putting it on his hand, Xiao Jue and Xiao Yan left the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower together. Xiao Yan returned to the Xiao Clan, and Xiao Jue found the Grand Elder Su Qian. Su Qian's eyes lit up when he saw Xiao Jue.

Su Qian had noticed the large number of Grade 8 pill lightning strikes that had previously appeared in the Monster Mountain Range. He believed that Xiao Jue's teacher had not yet left and that Xuan Kongzi was refining pills.

But the last time Zi Yan came back, she made four Zongyuan Pills for Xiao Jue, extorted several medicinal herbs from him, and also told him that Xiao Jue was going to refine an eighth-grade pill.

Su Qian asked, "You've become an eighth-grade alchemist?"

"Yes, I just refined an eighth-grade pill." Xiao Jue nodded and said, "I plan to enter the underground magma world inside the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower to resolve the problem of the Fallen Heart Flame riot. My teacher will be with me. He has ordered everyone inside the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower to leave and forbids anyone from spying on us."

"As expected." Su Qian thought to himself, Xuan Kongzi must still be on the Northwest Road and has not returned to Zhongzhou.

Su Qian said excitedly, "No problem, I'll go and have someone clear the way for the students right now. I guarantee that there won't be a single person inside the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower an hour from now. Before you come out, everyone will be prohibited from entering the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower."

"Here are the medicinal herbs for Elder Qianbai." Su Qian handed Xiao Jue a storage ring and said, "Inside are the ingredients they prepared for the Yuanzun Pill."

"Let them wait a while," Xiao Jue said. "I will deliver the two Yuanzun Pills to them within three months."
