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

Chapter 127: Melting the Mysterious Heavy Ruler to Forge Frostmourne for Zi Yan

Upon hearing this, Zhu Kun's gaze toward Xiao Jue grew even more hostile. He gave him a cold look, then smiled sheepishly and said to Zi Yan, "No problem. You are currently a Seven-Star Dou Wang. By cultivating the Ancient Dragon Technique, a high-level Earth-rank cultivation method of my Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, and with the fire pearls from those reptiles outside, you can break through to Dou Zong in at most three years."

"When you switch to cultivating the low-level Heaven Rank Ancient Dragon Technique, it will probably only take you three years to break through to the Dou Zun level."

Zi Yan said coldly, "Xiao Jue promised me that he could help me break through to Dou Zun in five years. He also gave me the Ancient Dragon Technique to cultivate, and he is also an eighth-grade alchemist."

Zhu Kun was taken aback and hurriedly explained, "Here, there are only the fire pearls of those reptiles outside. You can also go to the Ancient Dragon Clan of the Void to find your mother. At most, she can help you break through to become a Dou Sheng in twenty years."

"The Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan has split up," Xiao Jue said. "After you disappeared, all the powerful members of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan left Ancient Dragon Island. Three collateral dragon kings split Ancient Dragon Island. Now, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan only has three dragon kings at the late stage of three-star Dou Sheng and one elder at the late stage of two-star Dou Sheng, each in charge of a quarter of Ancient Dragon Island."

"What!" Zhu Kun's eyes widened, and he said coldly, "Those three bastards actually dared to split the Ancient Dragon Clan!"

Anger flashed in Zhu Kun's eyes. He had not expected that these people, who were originally extremely respectful to him, would have such audacity after his disappearance.

"We can help you improve your strength together," Zhu Kun said hurriedly. "I've killed all those reptiles outside and given you all their fire pearls. With two half-saints and hundreds of Dou Zun, that's enough for you to cultivate for a long time."

"Sigh." Zhu Kun couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that I've been trapped here all these years, and I've eaten all the medicinal herbs and magic cores in my storage ring."

Zi Yan tilted her head up and said, "Then give me all those fire beads, and I'll think about it later."

"No problem, leave it all to me." Zhu Kun grinned, and in the next instant, thousands of fire beads fell onto the ground of the square.

More than a thousand of them were blood-red fire beads, more than a hundred were crimson, and two were white.

Zhu Kun said, "Those guys outside are a special race created by the ancient emperor Tuoshe. They are the guardians of the ancient emperor's cave. Although I am the guardian now, those guys cannot leave the magma, or they will die immediately."

"The blood-red one is the fire orb of the Dou Zong Flame Lizardman, the crimson one is the fire orb of the Dou Zun Flame Lizardman, and the white ones are the fire orbs of the two Half-Saint Flame Lizardmen."

Cold sweat broke out on Xiao Jue's back. More than a thousand Dou Zong, hundreds of Dou Zun, and two Half Saints had all died at the hands of Zhu Kun in an instant.

Zi Yan reached out her small hand and picked up a fire bead, then frowned and said, "The energy inside these fire beads is so enormous, how am I supposed to absorb it?"

"My fault, my fault," Zhu Kun hurriedly explained. The next moment, tens of thousands of fire beads rained down from the sky.

"These are all fire orbs from the Battle Emperor Flame Lizardman. You can eat them directly to absorb the energy inside."

Zi Yan held Xiao Jue's hand and said, "You should put these fire pearls away first, and then add them to the medicinal herbs to refine them into pills for me."

The soul imprint on the white storage ring on Xiao Jue's hand disappeared instantly, and Xiao Jue used the storage ring of the Heavenly Fire Venerable to collect all these fire beads.

Immediately afterwards, Zi Yan put her hands on her hips, glared at Zhu Kun, and said, "Then you can see us out now, and I'll come back to see you when I'm in a better mood."

"No problem, I'll see you out right now." Zhu Kun narrowed his eyes, looked at Xiao Jue, and asked, "Zi Yan, this kid hasn't been bullying you, has he?"

Zi Yan said discontentedly, "What's it to you? Get us out of here."

Zhu Kun said with a wry smile, "Can't you stay here and keep me company a little longer?"

Zi Yan remained silent, simply gazing at Zhu Kun.

"Alright, alright, I'll see you out now."

Zhu Kun quickly gave in and used his spatial powers to send them back to the magma world. Xiao Jue could still hear a voice in his ear.

"Kid, find a way to get Ziyan to come here at least once a month. You'll get your share of the benefits."

Xiao Jue let out a long breath, hugged Zi Yan in his arms, and the next moment, the power of space erupted, leaving the magma world and returning to the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

"call!"

Xiao Jue let out a long breath; his back was soaked with cold sweat. Zi Yan frowned and asked, "Xiao Jue, did he bully you?"

Xiao Jue smiled bitterly, "I almost died at his hands. Elder Yao came out to take you there, and even gave Xiao Yan both my and his storage rings. What do you think?"

"That bastard!" Tears welled up in Zi Yan's eyes. "He's ignored me for so many years, and he even tried to kill me."

She reached out and hugged Xiao Jue, saying angrily, "I will never go there to see him again. I guess I was destined to be an orphan."

Xiao Jue didn't speak, but gently rubbed Zi Yan's head. The old man's soul appeared with the Yin-Yang Ring and the Bone Flame Ring, and gave the two storage rings to Xiao Jue.

The old doctor, still shaken, said, "You really scared me to death! Why didn't you make it clear that the place below was an ancient emperor's cave? Why didn't your Xiao clan's Dou Sheng come to save us?"

Xiao Jue's lips twitched. "That's a peak nine-star Dou Sheng. Apart from the deceased Xiao Clan patriarch Xiao Xuan, there's also the Gu Clan patriarch Gu Yuan and the Soul Clan patriarch Soul Emperor. No one can defeat him."

The old apothecary glanced at Zi Yan in Xiao Jue's arms, shook his head and said nothing more before entering the Bone Flame Ring.

"I'm telling the truth!" Zi Yan raised her head and said earnestly, "To me, you are more important than him."

"Okay." Xiao Jue smiled. Zhu Kun, like the other fire lizardmen, had been trapped by the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor. Now that they had left the underground magma world, Xiao Jue was no longer afraid of being killed by Zhu Kun.

Zi Yan suddenly frowned and asked, "What's wrong with that old man? Is he a spirit?"

"He was my and Xiao Yan's teacher," Xiao Jue explained. "Yao Chen, the number one alchemist in Zhongzhou, was a peak eighth-grade alchemist. He was killed by my and Xiao Yan's senior brother Han Feng and our uncle Mu Gu. Only his soul remained, but his strength was comparable to that of a Dou Zun."

Upon hearing Xiao Jue refer to himself and Xiao Yan as their teacher, Yao Lao in the Bone Flame Ring couldn't help but smile. It was worth risking his life to bring Zi Yan back to save him.

Zi Yan held Xiao Jue's hand and said, "Then you have to help me break through to the Dou Huang realm now."

"No problem, you're a great contributor." Xiao Jue picked up Zi Yan and walked out of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower.

Elder Su Qian, who was guarding outside the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, was expressionless, but was actually extremely anxious. He just didn't show it. When he saw the figure walking out of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and then his eyes widened.
