After getting to know Zi Yan, life gradually became more interesting.

Zi Yan would come to play with Xiao Ling every day, and would bring some medicinal herbs and ask Xiao Ling to help make them into pills.

As mentioned before, Zi Yan joined the "Supreme Freedom Sect" and became the chief disciple of the "Supreme Freedom Sect".

The group of senior students in the inner courtyard were all incredulous when they heard the news.

He is the famous "King of Brute Force" in the inner courtyard. Hasn't everyone always said that this guy has a bad temper and is violent by nature?

Everyone was surprised that he would join a newly created force.

Some old students had originally planned to cause trouble for the "Supreme Freedom Sect", but now this idea has disappeared. We must not offend the fierce god "Brute Force King", otherwise we will be beaten and lie down for ten days or half a month.

With Zi Yan's joining, the development of "Supreme Freedom Sect" has entered a period of rapid development. Many students with good strength and outstanding talents have chosen to join "Supreme Freedom Sect". Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this force has established a firm foothold in the academy, and the future prospects are bright. After the strength is improved in the future, the conditions for joining may become more stringent, and it will be impossible to join.

Xiao Ling was very satisfied with this situation. Now he rarely worried about fire energy in the inner courtyard. As long as he made a few pills while practicing alchemy, he could earn a lot of fire energy.

What’s interesting is that when Zi Yan came to Xiao Ling to find her to make pills, she happened to see Xiao Xun’er feeding Likongzuo with a sixth-grade pill in Xiao Ling’s yard. She was so shocked that her jaw dropped and she was extremely envious.

It was as if a switch was triggered. Xiao Ling would often see Zi Yan pestering Xiao Xun'er for food, which really made Xiao Ling happy.

Xiao Xun'er didn't care about these pills. Feeding one is the same as feeding one, and raising two is the same as raising two. Anyway, I am the eldest lady of the ancient clan and I am domineering.

Zi Yan didn't stay around Xiao Xun'er all the time. What she ate every day was mainly the pills made by Xiao Ling for her. In Zi Yan's words, she felt that the ones made by Xiao Ling tasted better.

The days passed by one after another in such a dull manner, but the dullness was dotted with some colors.

If Xiao Ling were left to practice alone like an ascetic monk, he would definitely get bored after a long time. Having a group of like-minded friends on the road to growth is quite heartwarming.

In the inner courtyard, everyone's strength was improving at a visible speed, and all this was thanks to the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower. Xiao Ling's cultivation speed was greatly improved, but as his own realm gradually improved, the difficulty of cultivation became more and more difficult, just like climbing a peak. Therefore, even with the blessing of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, it was impossible for such an absurd thing to break through a realm in a few days.

Moreover, Xiao Ling had no plan to use the drawing opportunity during this period. Before being promoted to Dou Wang, his strength was in a stable improvement period. After his body was fully developed and he had the ability to protect himself, he would use the drawing opportunity. At that time, using those treasures to go out and explore would definitely be of great help.

With his cultivation level steadily improving, Xiao Ling's alchemy skills have also greatly improved. With the increase of age, his body has developed more completely. With the help of "Taiyi Soul Absolute", his soul power has also been significantly improved. He has become more and more adept at refining pills, and his success rate is much higher than that of the elders in the inner courtyard. It's a pity that the foundation of the alchemy department of Canaan College is really not deep. Now the highest-level alchemist in the college is only the fire elder who is a fifth-grade alchemist. As Xiao Ling's own alchemy skills become more and more advanced, the college can provide less and less help, and finally he can only rely on himself to explore. Xiao Ling doesn't care about this. After all, there is a great opportunity waiting for him in the Xiao family in Wutan City. As long as he gets that opportunity, his alchemy skills will definitely improve significantly.

Chapter 40 Daily life

Time flies like water, and the years pass by silently. It seems like yesterday, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

"Boom..."

Inside the Tianfen Qi Training Tower, the sound of an ancient bell resounded throughout the entire tower at some point.

In the lounge on the bottom floor of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower, Xiao Ling formed a hand seal to end his training, exhaled a long breath, stood up and walked down the training platform.

Feeling the Dou Qi in his body, Xiao Ling shook his head and sighed helplessly: "After reaching Dou Ling, the effect of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower on me has become less and less effective. If this continues, it will take some effort to advance to Dou Wang."

Xiao Ling has been in the inner courtyard for two years now. By taking two Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pills and one Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill in succession, Xiao Ling broke through to the Dou Ling realm on the day he turned eleven.

Xiao Ling is now twelve and a half years old. After a year and a half of training in the Dou Ling realm, Xiao Ling has broken through to the fourth star of Dou Ling. This speed of training really makes Xiao Ling depressed. After all, in his previous training, except for the Dou Qi stage which took four years, it took an average of more than a year to break through a major realm in other realms.

Since breaking through the Dou Ling, the effect of the Fallen Heart Flame has been significantly reduced, so the speed of cultivation has increased compared to usual, but it has no significant effect. The quality of "Burning Art" is only at the low level of Xuan level, and it is a little weak to practice.

In fact, this situation is more reasonable. After all, the Fallen Heart Flame was imprisoned by Canaan College in the Tianfen Qi Training Tower. It already has intelligence and can think. Moreover, it is only at the Dou Zong level. The cultivation speed of low-level practitioners will be significantly improved by using the Heart Flame. After the cultivation level is increased, the effect is not so obvious. Moreover, the relationship between the Fallen Heart Flame and Canaan College is not good. It will not actively release the Heart Flame to the students of Canaan College for cultivation. It also needs to absorb energy through magma to store strength, thinking about breaking the seal one day.

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. If the cultivation speed is not as fast as before, should he stop practicing? He still has to practice anyway, so why bother about it? When I am fully grown and strong enough, I will definitely plunder all those opportunities. By then, the upgrade speed will be much faster than staying in Canaan College.

Walking out of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower along the passage, he found Xiao Xun'er standing there, wearing a purple dress. Her temperament was cool and indifferent, like a green lotus in the secular world. Seeing this scene, many people around cast admiring glances at her.

Xiao Xun'er is now almost twelve years old. As her body grows, her stunning beauty begins to show.

Seeing Xiao Ling coming out, Xiao Xun'er walked up to him with a smile and took Xiao Ling's arm.

Feeling the envious and jealous looks around him, Xiao Ling's face remained calm. He had experienced many such things since he was a child and had become immune to such looks.

After waking up Rayquaza, the two of them rode on Rayquaza and flew towards the dormitory under the envious gaze of everyone.

……

Flying through the clouds, feeling the wind blowing in their faces, the two chatted casually.

Suddenly, Xiao Xun'er seemed to have thought of something and asked Xiao Ling, "Brother Xiao Ling, do you still remember Xiao Yan from the Xiao family in Wutan City?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ling frowned. Why did his little Baicai mention that guy? His expression remained unchanged and he said calmly, "Of course I remember. The third young master of the Xiao family has good talent, but he is a little too flamboyant. Xun'er told me what happened to him?"

Nodding, Xiao Xun'er said, "This year, when Instructor Ruolin came back from recruiting students, she brought back a girl from the Xiao family in Wutan City. Her name is Xiao Yu. According to the backup, she should be considered our cousin."

Hearing Xiao Xun'er actually talking about seniority, Xiao Ling rolled his eyes and was speechless. He sighed in his heart: "Miss, according to seniority, everyone in my Xiao family has to call you grandma. Your father is Gu Yuan, who is of the same generation as my ancestor Xiao Xuan."

Xiao Ling nodded and motioned Xiao Xun'er to continue.

"Because she is of the same clan as us, Teacher Ruolin has paid special attention to her. With her understanding, she found out a very strange thing. It is said that Xiao Yan broke through to the Dou Zhe level at the age of eleven and was considered a top genius in the Jia Ma Empire. However, after he turned twelve this year, his cultivation level has not increased but decreased. In a few months, it has been reduced to the third stage of Dou Qi and has become a useless person." Xiao Xun'er said in a soft tone.

After listening to Xiao Xun'er's narration, Xiao Ling remembered that he was a few days older than Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan was twelve years old now, and Yao Chen had already begun to absorb the fighting spirit in his body. He was about to live a miserable life as a useless person for three years.

Xiao Ling thought for a while, then said, "Maybe there's something wrong with his body. I'll send a prescription back and ask someone in the family to find a pharmacist to check it out."

During his time in the academy, Xiao Ling would take out some things that were of no use to him every year and have them sent to the Xiao family. For example, there were some pills he made while practicing alchemy, and some martial arts skills that others used as rewards for alchemy. Some of them were too low in level or had inappropriate attributes, so they were all sent back to the Xiao family.

Although these things were of no use to Xiao Ling himself, they were a great gift to the Xiao family. After all, the highest-grade martial arts in the family before was only the Xuan-level intermediate martial arts "Raging Lion", and after receiving the things Xiao Ling sent, the elders in the family were overjoyed.

It was really too tragic for the eight ancient clans to end up like this. Thinking of this, Xiao Ling looked at Xiao Xun'er with a strange look. He complained in his heart: "If your father hadn't been so dishonest back then, the strongest person in our Xiao family wouldn't be just a great fighting master. The martial arts and fighting skills in the family were probably taken away by the ancient clan. When we become stronger, we will definitely go to the ancient clan to take those things back. Now we can only ask for some interest from the precious daughter of that old guy Gu Yuan."

Thinking of this, Xiao Ling simply turned sideways, and while the girl wasn't paying attention, he pulled her into his arms around the waist and kissed her directly.

Feeling Xiao Ling's mischievous hand, Xiao Xun'er's breathing began to become rapid. After a symbolic resistance, she fell into Xiao Ling's arms and let him do whatever he wanted.

Ling Ying, who was hiding in the dark, could only hold his forehead helplessly when he saw this scene, lamenting that his young lady's heart had been abducted right under his nose. He didn't know whether the clan leader would break her legs after she returned to the ancient clan.

With the rapid flight of the Rayquaza, the two quickly returned to the dormitory. After parting with Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Ling returned to his room.

Lying on the soft big bed, hugging the pillow tightly, Xiao Ling couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency after talking with Xun'er today. In order to become an emperor, it was inevitable to go against the Soul Clan. Thinking that there was not much time left for the Soul Clan's thousand-year plan, Xiao Ling sighed, "Strength..."

Chapter 41 Promoted to Fighting King

Two and a half years later.

In the No. 1 training room at the bottom of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, which belongs to the number one on the strong list, the majestic light red energy is so dense that it cannot be dissolved, like clouds and mist, directly filling the entire room.

All the energy continued to flow towards a figure sitting cross-legged on the stone platform. This person was Xiao Ling. An extremely powerful aura emanated from him, and as time passed, the aura emanating from his body continued to increase until it reached a limit.

Time passed slowly, and when the fighting spirit in the body reached a limit, it suddenly shrank, making its quality reach a higher level.

Sitting cross-legged, Xiao Ling exhaled a breath of foul air, felt the situation in his body, and said helplessly: "I finally broke through to Dou Wang Sanxing. Now the Tianfen Qi Training Tower can't help me much. At least I need to be able to devour a sub-fire of the Fallen Heart Flame to be effective."

Shaking his head, without thinking any more, Xiao Ling jumped down from the training stone platform and walked out of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower. Walking in the passage, every student he saw would greet Xiao Ling, and Xiao Ling did not put on airs, but smiled and nodded in response.

Xiao Ling, who is now fifteen years old, looks like a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old. He is over one meter eighty tall and wears a moon-white suit. His long blue-silver hair falls on his shoulders. He has fair skin and handsome looks. His blue-gold eyes are as calm as water, making it impossible to tell what their owner is really thinking. He has a slight smile on his face, giving people a friendly feeling.

Walking out of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower, Xiao Ling's mind moved, and suddenly the energy around him seemed to be responding to Xiao Ling's call, rushing to Xiao Ling's back and echoing with the Dou Qi energy in Xiao Ling's body, transforming into a pair of gorgeous huge wings with red flames as the main color, surrounded by blue and pink halos.

He circulated the fighting spirit in his body and leaped into the sky. He gently flapped his wings and flew into the sky.

……

After returning to the college dormitory, Xiao Ling called everyone together and planned to tell them that he was going out to gain experience.

Seeing that everyone had already arrived in the courtyard, Xiao Ling did not keep them in suspense any longer and spoke to them seriously, "I plan to go out for training tomorrow. The affairs of the Supreme Freedom Sect will be left to you to take care of. I will come back when I have time in the future. I will go to the Great Elder Su Qian and explain this matter. You guys can also extend your stay in the inner courtyard for a while. After reaching the peak of Dou Ling, you can be tempered by the Fallen Heart Flame, which will be of great help in your promotion to Dou Wang."

With the help of Xiao Ling, Lin Xiuya, Han Yue and others have improved compared to the original time and space. In the original book, these people broke through to Dou Wang in about three years. Now they are all high-level Dou Ling and should be able to break through to Dou Wang within a year. With Xiao Ling as an alchemist, there is no need to worry about the fire poison problem in the Tianfen Qi Training Tower. Lin Yan did not have the problem of fire poison affecting his training like in the original book. From this point, we can see how valuable the T0 professional alchemist in the Douqi Continent version is.

After hearing Xiao Ling's words, everyone had different expressions. A few boys just felt a little reluctant, but they didn't have too many thoughts. After all, Xiao Ling had already mentioned in the dormitory that he would go out.

The three girls felt uncomfortable and looked at Xiao Ling with extremely complicated eyes. Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Ling were childhood sweethearts, Han Yue and Xiao Ling also got along as a couple in private. Zi Yan regarded Xiao Ling as her breadwinner, and she didn't know how to survive without Xiao Ling refining pills for her in the future. It is said that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality. After taking pills for two and a half years, Zi Yan would never be willing to start chewing those bitter herbs again.

Zi Yan rushed to Xiao Ling's side in one quick step, firmly grasped Xiao Ling's arm, looked at Xiao Ling with tears in her eyes, and said in a tearful voice: "Xiao Ling, can you please not leave? How can I eat the delicious pills without you? How can you let me live alone!"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling also had a headache. This matter was indeed not well considered, but going out for training was inevitable. After all, there were so many opportunities waiting for him. Xiao Yan subdued the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire at the age of seventeen and a half, and Queen Medusa would be able to find the strange fire in two years. Maybe she had already sent people to start looking for information about the strange fire in the Tager Desert. To be on the safe side, Xiao Ling had to take out the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire one step ahead of time.

Shaking his head, Xiao Ling answered seriously: "I must go out for a while. I can no longer improve my cultivation quickly in Canaan College."

Hearing Xiao Ling's answer, Zi Yan was so anxious that she almost dropped her pearls. Suddenly she thought of something and her eyes lit up as she said, "Xiao Ling, can you take me with you to train? I have now reached the peak of the fifth level, and the Canaan Academy is of no help to me now. We can train and look for medicinal herbs at the same time. I am very powerful, and ordinary sixth-level monsters cannot beat me."

Hearing this, Xiao Ling touched his chin and thought for a while. Now Zi Yan staying in Canaan Academy will not help her cultivation. Moreover, she is also a fifth-level peak magic beast. With the powerful blood of Taixu Ancient Dragon, it is not a problem to be considered a Douhuang. The other people can stay in the academy for a while. The Tianfen Qi Training Tower still has some effect on them. Staying in the academy before breaking through the Douwang can also ensure their safety. Although Xiao Xun'er's current strength is that of a high-level Douling, she can't see her true strength. It should not be lower than her own cultivation. It's just that he doesn't want to take Xiao Xun'er around to waste time. The eldest lady of the ancient clan only needs to practice with peace of mind every day and fulfill her talent. The things she gets from following him to practice everywhere may be more precious to the eldest lady than the things in her ring.

Nodding, Xiao Ling said to Zi Yan: "What you said makes sense. Now the academy is not of much help to you. It is also a good choice to go out with me to look for opportunities. As long as Elder Su Qian agrees, I have no objection. But you must listen to my arrangements after you go out, otherwise I will not make pills for you to eat."

Hearing Xiao Ling agree to take her out, Zi Yan's eyes lit up with excitement. She nodded vigorously, patted her flat chest, and said confidently: "Don't worry, I will listen to you. Let's go to old man Su and talk about this matter quickly."

After Zi Yan finished speaking, she pulled Xiao Ling out of the house before he could react. Seeing this, Xiao Ling shook his head helplessly, nodded slightly to everyone, then left the dormitory with Zi Yan and went to the office of Elder Su Qian.

Chapter 42 Talking with Su Qian

Xiao Ling followed Zi Yan and soon arrived at the door of a quiet attic.

Before the two of them could knock on the door, a powerful voice came from inside, "What's the matter with you two little guys? You actually came to an old man like me. Come in and tell me."

In the sight of the two people, the door of the attic opened automatically, and an old man in a black robe with white hair and beard came into view. Although he looked a little old, the aura that emanated from his body inadvertently and the slight ripples in the space around him showed that this person was extraordinary and was a genuine strong man.

Xiao Ling walked forward and bowed to the great elder Su Qian. Zi Yan, who was standing beside him, just glanced at him indifferently, then found a chair nearby, sat down, took out a bottle of pills from her ring and started eating them with a "crunch, crunch" sound.

Seeing this, the corner of Elder Su Qian's mouth twitched. He couldn't help but complain in his heart: "I used to provide you with food, clothing, shelter and transportation, but you don't even give me, an old man, a little face in front of outsiders."

Xiao Ling pretended not to see it, and said calmly: "Great Elder Su Qian, I came to you this time to discuss with you about my training outside."

Hearing this, Elder Su Qian stopped thinking about other things and asked in a serious tone: "You are still young now. Although you are strong enough, you have studied in Canaan College since you were a child and your experience is not rich enough. In addition, now is your golden age for cultivation. Why don't you cultivate to a higher level in Canaan College before going out to gain experience?"

Xiao Ling did not hide his thoughts and said calmly, "I can no longer improve my cultivation quickly in Canaan College, and my alchemy skills have reached a bottleneck. Instead of practicing in Canaan College, I would rather go out and explore the world. I have had outstanding luck since I was a child, and maybe I can encounter an opportunity that will play a significant role in my life."

Hearing this, Great Elder Su Qian nodded. They were all people who had come from a young and frivolous age, so Su Qian could understand this idea, but he was still worried, so he said, "Although you are now a Dou Wang three-star, with your excellent soul power and physical fitness far superior to those of the same level, although you have no problem dealing with ordinary Dou Wang, it is hard to say when you meet a Dou Huang. Although Dou Wang can make Dou Qi resonate with the energy of the same attribute between heaven and earth, and mobilize the energy of heaven and earth for his own use. But Dou Huang can control the power of heaven and earth, and can mobilize a large amount of energy of the same attribute from the outside world for his own use, and his combat power is incomparable. Now your reputation has spread all over the Black Horn Region. Although Canaan Academy is well-known, I am afraid that they will have some crooked thoughts. There are countless Dou Huang powerhouses in the Black Horn Region, and there are several Dou Zong powerhouses sitting behind the scenes to control the situation in the Black Horn Region. If you plan to train in the Black Horn Region, it is not a wise move."

After listening to Su Qian's narration, Xiao Ling nodded seriously, but he didn't plan to practice in the Black Horn Region now. He would wait until he was strong enough to seek opportunities in this area. Xiao Ling knew that there was not only a fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire here, but also the low-level earth-level body fighting skill "Three Thousand Thunder Movements" that could only be practiced by the core members of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion. This was the pre-condition of the high-level earth-level identity fighting skill "Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body". Xiao Ling had been coveting it for a long time. More importantly, it was the Black Emperor Sect's Bodhi Body Saliva, which could not only cure the Xiaoyixian's affliction of poisonous body, but also an important key factor in finding the opportunity for the Bodhi Ancient Tree to become a saint. There were countless other treasures, such as the corpse of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, the method of refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet, and the "True Flame Art" and so on... If some major forces with Dou Zun sitting in charge knew that these things were in the Black Horn Region, they might have to fight for them in person.

Without thinking about these things anymore, Xiao Ling replied to Su Qian, "I know my own strength now. I am invincible below the Douhuang level, and I can fight against those above the Douhuang level. I am also capable of fighting against some low-star Douhuangs who don't have earth-level skills. Although such strength cannot guarantee my safety 100% in the Black Horn Region, I can come and go freely in the Jia Ma Empire. I plan to go back to my family, and then train in the Jia Ma Empire and the Tagor Desert to find some opportunities. Now my magic beast Likongzuo has been promoted to the sixth-level magic beast. With its speed far exceeding that of the same level, even if the Dou Zong wants to attack me, he may not be able to catch up with me."

After hearing Xiao Ling's answer, Su Qian also nodded, his face was not as serious as before, and he smiled and said, "Since you are going to the Jia Ma Empire, I have nothing to dissuade you. According to what I have learned, in the Jia Ma Empire, the old leader of the Yun Lan Sect, Yun Shan, is now in seclusion and his strength is unknown. The strongest fighting force on the surface is Jia Xingtian, the royal guardian of the Jia Ma Empire, whose cultivation has reached the peak of Dou Huang. The strongest in the Tagor Desert must be the notorious Queen Medusa. Although her cultivation is also at the peak of Dou Huang, she is not comparable to Jia Xingtian. With her magical beast body, she can compete with Dou Zong in a short time. If you happen to come into contact with it at that time, it is better to be careful. As long as you are not careless, there should be no accidents."

After Xiao Ling got the permission from the Great Elder, he felt relieved. If the Great Elder really disagreed, Xiao Ling would have no choice. After all, Canaan College was the place where he was trained, and the Great Elder was half his parent. If something went wrong with his plan at that time, it would be difficult to deal with.

Xiao Ling bowed deeply to the Great Elder again, and said seriously: "Thank you for your help, Great Elder. I will be more careful when I am out there."

Seeing this scene, Great Elder Su Qian stroked his beard and a kind smile appeared on his face. This child was also the one who grew up under his care. He was gifted in cultivation speed and was an enchantress in alchemy. His character was also quite mature. He was neither arrogant nor impatient. He respected his elders and treated people gently. It would be great if this kid was his son.

"Now that you have broken through to the Dou Wang level, and you have been in the inner courtyard for almost five years, since you want to go out for experience, you should graduate early and serve as an elder in the academy. Don't forget Canaan Academy when you are away. It will always be your home." Su Qian said solemnly.

Nodding, Xiao Ling answered seriously: "Don't worry, Great Elder. Canaan College raised me up. Even if you don't say these things, I will remember this kindness in my heart. I have already regarded myself as a part of Canaan College."

Hearing this, Su Qian nodded in satisfaction, walked up to Xiao Ling, patted Xiao Ling on the shoulder, and said, "Then I will inform the elders in the academy later. From now on, you will be the elder of the inner courtyard. At that time, we will no longer be in a student-teacher relationship, but colleagues."

Xiao Ling shook his head and said, "No matter how high I reach in the future, you are still my elder."

Zi Yan, who was standing by, saw the two people complimenting each other and a big question mark appeared on her face. She felt like a superfluous person.
