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

Chapter 208 Tiger King

"Shennong the Elder..." Long Yan murmured as he looked at the puppet made by Shennong the Elder. He chuckled and a drop of blood essence flew from his fingertip, landing on the puppet's brow. It instantly turned into a faint blood mark, and a feeling of spiritual connection arose spontaneously.

"From now on, you shall be called... Tiger King."

Upon hearing Long Yan's words, the burly black figure's face flickered, and finally, a hoarse voice, cold and devoid of any emotion, slowly escaped from his mouth: "Yes, Master."

The current Tiger King shows no trace of Shennong, the old man from before. Instead, due to the addition of various rare metals, it has grown to a height of two meters, and its body is also blackened by the rare metals.

Long Yan did not want to tarnish Shennong's name, and also did not want others to know that the old man Shennong died at his hands, so he named himself Tiger King.

This puppet is different from the previous Heavenly Demon Puppets. Heavenly Demon Puppets have no intelligence and rely entirely on the puppeteer to control them when fighting.

But now, the Tiger King only needs Long Yan to think and it will take the initiative to attack. Moreover, when fighting, it does not feel the slightest bit sluggish as a puppet.

"The current Tiger King should be able to rival a five-star Dou Sheng powerhouse."

Long Yan kept scrutinizing the Tiger King. A puppet capable of rivaling a five-star Dou Sheng—if this news got out, it would cause quite a stir. Long Yan himself was very satisfied.

After all, the puppet Xiao Yan used, which was made by the Northern Dragon King, was only about this level. It was already quite impressive that the Tiger King possessed such strength.

Furthermore, because Long Yan used fourteen different kinds of strange fire to temper it, this puppet has extremely strong potential. If it were tempered by black demon lightning, it could be comparable to a six-star Dou Sheng.

Furthermore, after Long Yan met Xiao Jue, he obtained the power of the other five different flame sources, which allowed him to further refine the puppet.

Xiao Jue's cultivation will last for more than a month. After it ends, Fairy Huo Ling should have no problem breaking through to the early stage of the Eight-Star Dou Sheng.

Long Yan found Yao Ming, greeted him, and left. He would return more than a month later to take Yao Xue away before setting off for the Lei Clan.

The Void Thunder Pool can no longer be used for its own purposes. Long Yan plans to temper the Tiger King in the Thunder Clan's Demon Thunder Pool and, while he's at it, refine two pills for Lei Xi: a Grade 9 Treasure Pill and a Pseudo-Grade 9 Profound Pill. The time is almost up.

Afterwards, he took Tiger King, Yao Xue, and Long Xiao to find Xiao Jue and handed them over along with the pills he had refined. They also fused with the origin of the strange fire. Although their strength could not be improved, obtaining the origin of the Flame of Life and the other four strange fires was the greatest benefit.

……

"Who dares to trespass into my Thunder Clan!"

The moment Long Yan arrived at Thunder Emperor City and entered the Thunder Realm, he heard a questioning voice. He casually suppressed the Thunder Clan's Ninth Rank Dou Zun and said, "Take me to see Clan Chief Lei Ying."

"Who are you!"

This ninth-level Dou Zun of the Lei Clan looked very young, in his early twenties, dressed in silver robes, and his bone age was only in his early thirties. He gritted his teeth and questioned, "If you don't reveal your identity, you might not be able to leave the Lei Clan today."

A wisp of black demonic lightning appeared on Long Yan's body as he chuckled, "I don't know if you've heard of me before, but my name is Long Yan. I'm considered a friend of Xiao Jue."

"My uncle's friend?" The other person was stunned when he saw Hei Mo Lei, and hurriedly said, "Since you're one of us, I'll take you in. My name is Lei Dong."

Lei Dong, the young patriarch of the Lei clan who was almost engaged to Xun'er, is now in a relationship with the two clans, so his grandfather can no longer discuss such matters with the three immortals of the ancient clan.

Lei Dong is the grandson of Lei Jie, the Supreme Elder of the Lei Clan. Lei Ying and Lei Jie are cousins, so Lei Dong calls Lei Xi his aunt.

"So you're Lei Dong, kid?" Long Yan looked at his nephew, who was more than ten years older than Xiao Jue, released Lei Dong, patted him on the shoulder, and casually took out a jade bottle and handed it to him.

"This is a Tribulation Pill of Nine-Colored Thunder, consider it a gift from your elders."

"Thank you, senior." Lei Dong was somewhat taken aback, not expecting this impetuous senior to be so generous, and hurriedly led the way.

"Long Yan!!!"

When Lei Ying saw Long Yan, his eyes widened in surprise, and he exclaimed, "How did you break through to the six-star Dou Sheng level?!"

"A six-star Dou Sheng!" Lei Dong swallowed hard. Although he was the young patriarch of the Lei Clan, only five people in the Lei Clan knew Xiao Jue's specific situation: Lei Ying and his daughter Lei Xi, two elders who were seven-star Dou Sheng, and Mang Tianchi, the dean of Canaan Academy.

Lei Dong initially thought Xiao Jue was a phoenix man from the outside world, and planned to give him a hard time when Xiao Jue came to the Lei Clan. But it turned out that Xiao Jue's friends were all six-star Dou Sheng.

Looking at the Thunder Tribulation Pill in his storage ring, Lei Dong began to wonder if he, in his thirties, would still be able to be a flower boy when Xiao Jue and Lei Xi got married.

Long Yan smiled without saying a word, while Lei Ying said, "Lei Dong, you can go down first."

"Yes."

The latest novel is first published here!

After Lei Dong respectfully withdrew, Long Yan smiled and said, "I was lucky. I refined a Thunder Tribulation Pill that was close to a Grade 9 Profound Pill, a Thunder Tribulation Pill that was a pseudo Grade 9 Profound Pill refined through the Spirit Ascension Secret Method, and a real Grade 9 Profound Pill. That's how I broke through from the early stage of the Four-Star Dou Sheng to the mid-stage of the Six-Star Dou Sheng."

"You can refine a true Grade Nine Profound Pill now!" Lei Ying was overjoyed. He grabbed Long Yan's shoulder, took a deep breath, and excitedly asked, "Then, can you refine the Thunder Emperor Profound Pill formula I gave you?"

"The success rate is very low."

Long Yan truthfully replied, "I was able to refine a normal Grade 9 Profound Pill when I was in the late stage of the Five-Star Dou Sheng realm. Now that I'm breaking through to the mid-stage of the Six-Star Dou Sheng realm, the success rate is almost 100%."

"However, the Thunder Emperor Profound Pill is a weakened version of the Thunder Emperor Golden Pill, which is a weakened version of the Emperor-grade pill Thunder Emperor Pill. The refining method and medicinal materials are modeled after the ninth-grade Golden Pill. Only if I break through to the Seven-Star Dou Sheng level will I be confident in refining it."

The ninth-grade Xuan Dan, whose spirituality is close to that of a ninth-grade Golden Core, can almost only be refined by a Golden Core Grandmaster. In the current Dou Qi Continent, there is probably only one person, Yao Dan, who can refine pills of this level.

Below the level of medicine pills, the strongest alchemists on the Dou Qi Continent should be Long Yan and Hun Xuzi, but they are only ordinary Xuan Dan Grandmasters.

The pill that Yan Jin needs is called the Fire Emperor Profound Pill, which is similar to the Thunder Emperor Profound Pill. It is a weakened version of the Fire Emperor Golden Pill.

Lei Ying looked immediately disappointed. The Lei Clan only had three portions of the ingredients for the Thunder Emperor Profound Pill. Some of these ingredients could be cultivated using the Flame of Life, but some rare spiritual treasures were different; every bit used reduced the supply.

Even with the power of the Flame of Life, we can only gather a maximum of five portions. These five portions of medicinal herbs can also be used as ingredients for the Thunder Emperor Golden Pill, since the required spiritual materials from heaven and earth are similar, and the medicinal herbs can all be cultivated through the Flame of Life.
