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

There's also a stream there, so if you're all sweaty after training, you can take a bath.

Just as Xiao Yang was about to arrive there, he heard several cries of pain from afar.

"hiss--"

"what!"

"it hurts!"

He recognized the voice; it was Xiao Yan's voice.

……

After obtaining the Fire-Blowing Palm and the Absorption Palm, Xiao Yan originally wanted to go to the Martial Arts Hall to see what suitable fighting techniques were available.

After all, although the Absorbing Palm and the Flaming Palm are Xuan-rank fighting skills, they are not very powerful.

Unfortunately, the arena is full of Yellow-rank fighting techniques.

In the end, he still sought out the old medicine master and obtained the Eight Extremes Collapse.

However, practicing the Eight Extremes Collapse requires a very high level of physical strength.

At that time, Xiao Yan's physical strength and cultivation level were not high enough, so he was prone to injury when practicing the Eight Extremes Collapse.

Therefore, during this period, he spent his time in the back mountain having the old herbalist train his body.

Then, Yao Lao condensed his soul power into a whip and lashed it at Xiao Yan again and again.

"hiss--"

"what!"

"it hurts!"

Although Xiao Yan was being whipped by Yao Lao and was grimacing and crying out in pain,

However, his eyes were full of determination, showing no intention of stopping.

Just then, the old man who was smoking medicine suddenly stopped.

"Why all of a sudden..."

Just as Xiao Yan was filled with confusion and about to ask Yao Lao why he had suddenly stopped, Yao Lao directly transmitted his voice to him.

"Someone's coming."

The next moment, Yao Lao instantly returned to the ring.

Before long, Xiao Yang's figure appeared in Xiao Yan's sight.

He also knew why the old doctor had gone into hiding.

"Little Yanzi, you're here too?"

When Xiao Yang saw Xiao Yan, he greeted him.

"Brother Yang, what brings you here?"

He also replied to Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang glanced at Xiao Yan, whose entire body was flushed, with a strange expression.

"I came to the back mountain to test out my newly learned fighting techniques."

"What are you doing...?"

"Why is your whole body all red, like a boiled shrimp? Are you alright?"

He had no intention of hiding it; it was just a mid-level Xuan-rank fighting skill.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan quickly made up an excuse.

"Ahem, I'm just tempering my body."

"It's just that the workout lasted a long time, and the muscles were congested with blood."

Xiao Yang nodded with a strange expression.

This isn't about training the body; it's more like being beaten on one side.

He also knew that it must have been Yao Lao who made it.

"You need to be careful not to leave any hidden injuries."

"I've been working out hard lately and bought a lot of medicinal bath ingredients. I'll bring some over to you later."

Because he had been soaking in the Rejuvenating Elixir, he hadn't used any of the medicinal bath ingredients he had bought before.

Moreover, since it was purchased from the Xiao family at the original price, it's not appropriate to sell it directly.

So, I might as well just give it to Xiao Yan.

As for Xiao Yan not needing it, that's none of his business.

Xiao Yan felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this.

He hadn't expected anyone to come from the back of the mountain, so he quickly changed the subject.

"Thank you, Brother Yang."

"Brother Yang, what new fighting technique have you learned? Why don't you go to the Fighting Hall to spar with someone?"

Xiao Yang waved his hand.

"I obtained this fighting skill on my own, not from the Xiao family's fighting skill hall."

"That's why I came to the back mountain to conduct my own experiments."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's heart stirred.

He had previously learned to blow fire and suck in the palm.

However, he has never fought anyone yet.

So he spoke.

"Brother Yang, how about we have a little sparring match?"

"I just recently acquired two combat skill books."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang's expression turned somewhat strange.

"you sure?"

"Then I will suppress my cultivation to around the third level of Dou Qi and spar with you."

Since Xiao Yan had come to him of his own accord, he did not refuse.

He directly created the task.

[Mission: Defeat Xiao Yan in a sparring match. Reward: Luck +10, Comprehension +10, Foundation Establishment Elixir]

Looking at the mission rewards, a hint of surprise flashed across Xiao Yang's face.

As expected of the chosen one, the reward is truly generous!

Chapter 13 The Power of the Fierce Mountain Fist

A smile appeared on Xiao Yan's lips.

"No need, Brother Yang, I have already broken through to the fourth level of Dou Qi."

"Moreover, the fighting techniques I've acquired are quite powerful, so you don't need to suppress your strength."

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Yao Lao, who was inside the ring, shook his head.

With his soul strength, he could certainly sense Xiao Yang's current realm.

"Forget it, let him suffer a loss and learn a lesson."

"At least for now, suffering a loss won't cause any real harm."

"If we suffer losses at the hands of the enemy later, it could be fatal."

"However... I noticed this Xiao Yang before. His soul power seems to be quite extraordinary, actually reaching the mid-stage of the mortal realm."

The old doctor looked at Xiao Yang outside with some surprise.

He never expected that a mere kid at the Battle Qi stage would possess a soul realm at the mid-mortal stage.

……

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang, though already aware of it, still feigned surprise.

"really?"

"Your talent has finally been restored!"

"Great!"

A hint of emotion appeared on Xiao Yan's face.

"Yes, it's finally recovered."

"Brother Yang, just go all out. I want to see your strength."

"bring it on!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang didn't say anything more and immediately assumed a fighting stance.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Yan's expression also became more serious.

He launched the first attack.

Xiao Yang's cultivation level was higher than his. Although he possessed a Xuan-rank fighting skill, he still attacked first to see if he could gain the upper hand.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Yan immediately unleashed his Absorption Palm technique.

The next moment, a suction force came from my hand.

Xiao Yang also felt the suction force at this moment.

"Is this the kind of money he got in the market?"

He thought to himself.
