Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

That's just too tragic.

Even Xiao Yang himself was an orphan.

Xiao Yan's ability to surpass Xiao Yang's is definitely due to the existence of Xiao Zhan.

"I'm going to try refining a pill. Could you protect me for a moment?"

As Xiao Yang took out the medicine cauldron and medicinal herbs, he spoke to Little Fairy Doctor.

He had just obtained some materials for Foundation Establishment Pills and was preparing to refine them.

He is currently a Seven-Star Dou Shi, and after taking the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Orchid Heart Pill, he can directly reach the Nine-Star Dou Shi level.

However, he would only take pills of perfect quality to avoid weakening his fighting spirit.

"No problem, just focus on refining it."

After Little Fairy Doctor readily agreed, she suddenly remembered something and hesitated before speaking.

"But... will you be able to make it to the banquet tonight?"

There are only a few hours left until nightfall.

Xiao Yang nodded and said affirmatively.

"no problem."

His proficiency in second-grade pills has reached perfection.

Foundation Building Pill and Orchid Heart Pill are also second-grade pills.

Although he had never refined it, he had gained a lot of experience and insights.

The success rate of refining it will definitely be high, and the quality will not be too low either.

It's quite difficult to refine a Foundation Establishment Pill with pill patterns.

However, for Xiao Yang at this stage, a second-grade pill does not require a long time to obtain.

Most low-level pills don't take too long to refine.

Only a few elixirs of the sixth or seventh grade and above are relatively time-consuming and laborious to refine.

After setting up the task, he immediately began refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.

……

Soon, time passed, and Xiao Yang successfully refined the Foundation Establishment Pill for the first time.

This is normal, even though the Foundation Establishment Pill is very difficult to refine.

However, for Xiao Yang, who could even refine third-grade pills, refining Foundation Establishment Pills was still quite simple.

It's a bit of a pity that this Foundation Establishment Pill is only of medium quality.

In Xiao Yang's opinion, this was even somewhat poor.

He didn't even want to give this pill to his two older brothers.

It's not presentable!

Although Xiao Ding and Xiao Li's cultivation levels are not as high as Xiao Yang's, they are still quite powerful.

However, their talents are quite remarkable!

They were only a few years older than Xiao Yang.

These days, having one one-star Dou Shi and one two-star Dou Shi is considered quite good.

In the original story, when Xiao Yan came to find them, one of them was at the four-star level and the other was at the five-star level.

Moreover, when Xiao Yan returned to the Jia Ma Empire, he was able to break through to the Great Dou Master level.

This talent is quite good.

You should know that they don't have many cultivation resources, and their cultivation techniques are quite ordinary.

Therefore, Xiao Yang did not intend to give them inferior pills.

Anyway, I obtained quite a lot of materials for Foundation Building Pills and Orchid Heart Pills this time.

It can probably refine four Foundation Establishment Pills and five Orchid Heart Pills.

Poor-quality materials are easier to ripen quickly.

If all else fails, just have Xiao Ding ripen them more quickly.

If he refines a few more batches, he will surely be able to produce high-grade pills.

It's even possible that there are perfect quality pills with Dan patterns.

After carefully storing the pills and the medicine cauldron, Xiao Yang immediately began to recover his battle qi.

A short while later, a mercenary came to summon Xiao Yang.

He took Little Fairy Doctor directly to a small square.

A bonfire had been lit in the square, and many burly men with bare upper bodies were chatting around it.

Seeing Xiao Yang and Little Fairy Doctor approaching, Xiao Li's eyes lit up, and he walked towards them.

Chapter 117 The Ecstatic Mercenaries

Xiao Li grabbed Xiao Yang and put his arm around him.

"Everyone, this is Xiao Yang, one of my and my elder brother's younger brothers!"

"From now on, he will have the same status as the two of us in the Desert Iron Mercenary Group!"

"Don't underestimate my younger brother, he's even stronger than me and my older brother!"

"He is a Seven-Star Dou Master!"

"Not only that, she's also an alchemist!"

The main purpose of this party, besides celebrating Xiao Yang's arrival, was also to introduce him to the other mercenaries.

Xiao Yang and Xiao Ding had both said that his main purpose in coming here was to find a different kind of fire.

We'll definitely need the help of these mercenaries then.

Therefore, now is the perfect time to introduce Xiao Yang to everyone in advance.

The current Mo Tie Mercenary Group is not the same Mo Tie Mercenary Group that will exist a year or so later.

More than a year later, the Mo Tie Mercenary Group was able to become one of the top three mercenary groups in Shimo City, mainly because they had four Battle Masters.

However, at present, the Mo Tie Mercenary Group only has two Dou Shi, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.

After all, they have only recently broken through to the Dou Shi level, so it will be difficult for them to recruit other Dou Shi.

They are now being completely overwhelmed by the Storm Mercenary Group and the Sand Mercenary Group.

There were even two mercenary groups whose strength was about the same as theirs.

Therefore, the number of members in the Mo Tie Mercenary Group is not as large as in the original story.

Xiao Yang had previously discussed this with Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, and decided to take this opportunity to help them build the reputation of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group and attract more people to join.

The titles of Seven-Star Battle Master or Alchemist are easy to attract other mercenaries to join.

The title of alchemist is particularly important.

For these mercenaries who risk their lives, elixirs are extremely important.

However, it is very difficult to buy the elixir.

Alchemists are too lazy to stay in places like the Tagor Desert.

It's not only dangerous, but the environment is also terrible.

Moreover, due to its proximity to the desert, there are relatively few types of medicinal herbs available.

Which alchemist would come here to suffer?

Therefore, there are very few elixirs here.

Most mercenaries treat their injuries directly with herbs.

But how could herbs possibly be as potent as elixirs?

Upon hearing Xiao Li's words, the mercenaries forgot all about the meat in front of them and cheered.

"Great! Our Desert Iron Mercenary Group now has an alchemist!"

"Lord Xiao Yang is even younger than the Second Regiment Commander, yet he possesses such strength. Even in the capital, he is a top-tier genius!"

"With Lord Xiao Yang here, the Storm Mercenary Group is nothing!"

"We will surpass the Sand Mercenary Group sooner or later!"

At this moment, the mercenaries were extremely excited.

These mercenaries, who have lived on the edge of death, understand best the importance of strength and elixirs.

Unexpectedly, the younger brother of the two regimental commanders was such a person.

Amid cheers from the crowd, Xiao Yang and Little Fairy Doctor took their seats.

He sat down next to Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.

Xiao Yang didn't care much about the eager looks from the mercenaries around him.

His ultimate goal was to find the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

The main purpose of helping the Desert Iron Mercenary Group expand was also this.

After all, he didn't have the map of the strange fire that Hai Bodong had drawn over the years.

He can't win over Hai Bodong yet; he needs to wait a little longer.

After some time, once he breaks through to the Great Dou Master level and his physical strength increases, he can go find Hai Bodong.

With his current physical talent, his improvement speed is extremely fast, even comparable to some members of magical beast families.

And so, the night flew by.
