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

The coming-of-age ceremony is around these next few days.

In a few months, Canaan Academy will come to Utan City to recruit students.

At that time, Xiao Yang planned to enter Canaan Academy and find an opportunity to absorb a trace of the original fire seed of the Fallen Heart Flame.

If Canaan Academy knew that Xiao Yang could do it, they would probably be very happy to do so.

The Fallen Heart Flame of Canaan Academy is extremely powerful.

It might even be more powerful than some of the different flames ranked ahead of it.

Moreover, the people of Canaan Academy did not know how to separate the source of the different flames.

Generally speaking, separating the source of a different kind of fire is quite troublesome.

Moreover, for ordinary people, that wisp of strange fire has little significance.

There aren't many ways to strengthen one's abilities.

A wisp of the original source of the strange fire can be regarded as a sub-fire of the strange fire.

Even for a Void Devouring Flame that has reached the level of a Nine-Star Dou Sheng, the power of a single wisp of flame would not be great.

Xiao Yang needed it because of the power of the Origin Flame.

Not only can it fuse with the origins of other strange fires and possess the characteristics of those different fires, but it can also gradually replenish its own origins.

It was also because of the inherent characteristics of the primordial fire that Xiao Yang was able to separate the origin of the strange fire so easily.

For others, to separate the origin of the strange fire, they either need to become the master of the strange fire or the strange fire itself needs to do so willingly.

Even a Dou Zong would find it difficult to deal with the Fallen Heart Flame of Canaan Academy.

The academy's elders were able to contain the Fallen Heart Flame only thanks to the seal left behind by Mang Qianchi.

Therefore, even Elder Huo of the Alchemy Department was unable to refine the Fallen Heart Flame.

If Xiao Yang can separate the origin of the Fallen Heart Flame, its strength will definitely be damaged, which would be a great thing for Canaan Academy.

As for the Fallen Heart Flame, which even a Dou Zong couldn't handle, could Xiao Yang deal with it?

All I can say is that even the Void Devouring Flame would have to run away in front of Xiao Yang, who possesses the Different Flame Tower.

Over the next few days, Xiao Yang continued refining pills and cultivating with Little Fairy Doctor.

He also tried using spiritual plant techniques to accelerate the ripening of the Green Lotus, which nurtured the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire.

One lotus seed has already grown.

That lotus seed, like the original one, was formed from concentrated fire-attribute energy.

However, Xiao Yang did not take it off immediately.

He decided to see if he could still nurture the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame.

However, Xiao Yang's view on this is not very optimistic.

When he was ripening the lotus, he could sense the situation.

He did not sense any trace of the strange fire being conceived.

However, he continues his desperate struggle, preparing to ripen it for a thousand years before seeing the results.

Soon, a few days passed.

In a small courtyard of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group.

Hai Bodong was sitting in the courtyard, rocking in a chair and drinking tea, looking very relaxed.

But at that moment, Hai Bodong's hand suddenly trembled, and the tea in the cup spilled all over the floor.

A flicker of fear flashed unconsciously in his eyes.

Hai Bodong sensed an aura that was all too familiar.

The owner of this aura had appeared in his dreams countless times.

Of course, it was a nightmare.

Although Xiao Yang had already told him about this.

Hai Bodong was also prepared for the upcoming Medusa.

After all, Xiao Yang even has Medusa's scales, so it's normal for him to know Medusa.

However, Hai Bodong was unaware that Medusa, whom he feared, had come here to keep her promise and protect Xiao Yang.

……

In Xiao Yang's courtyard, a woman dressed in a purple dress slowly descended from the sky.

The other party had no wings.

Walking in the void—this is the hallmark of a Dou Zong powerhouse!

The Dou Zong has already begun to come into contact with the power of space.

Void walking is an application of spatial power.

"I am coming."

Looking at Xiao Yang in front of her, Medusa spoke calmly.

"I will be by your side to protect you for the next year."

"You can also think about which two things you'd like me to do for you next."

Xiao Yang, who was refining pills, glanced at Medusa and casually asked a question.

"Is the matter concerning the snake-people settled?"

"I'll be leaving here in the next few days."

"If something happens to the snake people, it will take you some time to come back."

With his current alchemy skills, he can easily multitask.

He could even refine several portions of some low-grade pills at once.

After several days of alchemy practice, Xiao Yang's proficiency in making third-grade pills has reached the Great Perfection 7/10.

He might only need another half month to raise his proficiency in Grade 3 pills to perfection.

He estimated that he would receive the complete set of fourth-grade pill formulas as a reward.

"It's all done."

"The rest can be left to the other members of the snake people."

Medusa didn't stand on ceremony. She walked to the stone bench in the courtyard, sat down, and slowly began to speak.

Chapter 149 Departure

After refining the pills, Xiao Yang arrived at the courtyard where Xiao Ding lived.

Xiao Li was also here at this time.

"Brother Ding, Brother Li, aren't you going back to the family?"

“You came out before so that Xiao Yanzi would have a way out.”

"His talent has now been restored, and it will never disappear again."

Aren't you going back?

"That's perfect, you guys have been out for quite a while now."

Xiao Yang's purpose this time was to see if he could persuade Xiao Ding and Xiao Li to return to the Xiao family.

In the original story, they were also the targets of a manhunt.

Moreover, both of them met a rather tragic end.

In the original novel, Xiao Ding was hunted down by the Yunlan Sect, which resulted in him becoming paralyzed in both legs.

Although he was later cured by Xiao Yan, he was still disabled for a long time.

Xiao Li was also hunted down.

If I hadn't happened to enter a cave left by someone before me and obtained the Life-Devouring Pill, I might have died.

The Life-Devouring Pill is a seventh-grade elixir.

After a Grand Master consumes it, it will sacrifice their life essence to allow them to break through to the level of a Battle King.

After taking it, you will only have three years left to live.

However, Xiao Yang felt that the Life-Devouring Pill was not that simple.

A seventh-grade peak pill is an extremely powerful substance.

Moreover, once one breaks through to the Dou Huang level, they will recover and their lifespan will be the same as that of a normal Dou Huang.

Having already broken through to the Dou Wang realm using the essence of life, shouldn't their lifespan be reduced?

Even if one breaks through to the Dou Huang realm and their lifespan increases, it should still be less than that of other Dou Huangs.

Moreover, normally speaking, losing the essence of life will greatly reduce one's talent for cultivation and damage one's foundation.

However, after taking the Life-Giving Pill, apart from having only three years left to live, his talent was not damaged in the slightest.

Xiao Li later broke through to the Dou Huang level within three years.

It's important to understand that there are sufficient resources to help.

However, being able to break through from Dou Wang to Dou Huang within three years is quite an achievement.

Therefore, Xiao Yang guessed that the Life Devouring Pill might also contain powerful life force to replenish the life essence lost by the user.

However, it can only be activated after the user breaks through to the Douhuang level.

Just like the Yin-Yang Xuanlong Pill invented by the old physician, it can only exert its medicinal effect when one is on the verge of death.

Venerable Feng broke through to the Dou Zun realm with the help of this pill!

It's important to understand that the energy required for a Dou Zong to break through to Dou Zun is far greater than the energy required for a Da Dou Shi to break through to Dou Wang.
