Seeing this, Xiao Ling roughly understood that they should be reaching the Tianfen Qi Training Tower soon. So he increased his speed and rushed forward.

Chapter 36: Tianfen Qi Training Tower

Stopping on a small hill, Xiao Ling looked forward. What appeared in Xiao Ling's sight was a sunken terrain. In the sunken land, a huge black tower was buried deep underground, with only a part of the tower top and a layer of black entrance exposed on the ground. This is the essence of the inner courtyard, the Tianfen Qi Training Tower.

The entrance of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower was already surrounded by a dense crowd of people. This scene made Xiao Ling realize how popular the Tianfen Qi Training Tower was in the inner courtyard.

Without much hesitation, Xiao Ling squeezed into the crowd and quickly squeezed to the front with his strong physical strength. He found an empty space with few people and stood there.

Seeing the Tianfen Qi Training Tower from a closer distance, Xiao Ling discovered that the space around the tower seemed to be slightly twisted and wrinkled.

"This space lock should have been left by Mang Tianchi a long time ago. It has been so long and he didn't come back to repair it. Han Feng just brought a few Dou Huangs to break the space lock." Thinking of the plot of the original novel, Xiao Ling complained in his heart.

Time passes by little by little while waiting.

“Boom!

Suddenly, the sound of an ancient bell rang out in the area, and as the bell rang, the noisy sounds in the field suddenly stopped.

"Open the tower!"

The bell chimed, and an old voice seemed to come from the tower.

Shortly after the old voice fell, the closed dark door slowly opened with a creaking sound, and a faint hot breath seeped out, causing the temperature of the world to rise slightly.

"Enter the tower!"

The old voice sounded again, and there was a sound of breaking wind, and figures rushed towards the tower gate in an overwhelming manner.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling also set off and walked into the tower. Remembering that he would feel uncomfortable the first time he entered, he took out a third-grade Qingxin Pill and stuffed it into his mouth, intending to take the drug directly if he felt uncomfortable.

The moment Xiao Ling's feet landed on the ground after entering the tower gate, his body suddenly solidified, his white face was like burning charcoal, and streams of faint white mist, with a sizzling sound like barbecue, seeped out from his body.

Feeling something strange in his body, Xiao Ling didn't hesitate too much and directly took the Qingxin Pill in his mouth. He immediately felt that the discomfort in his body disappeared and he felt refreshed.

Although no abnormal reaction appeared for the time being, Xiao Ling still sensed a cluster of strange flames that suddenly appeared inexplicably from his body. This cluster of flames was invisible and colorless. It should be the branch flame of the Fallen Heart Flame. He had to find a room to practice for a while and let his body adapt to this situation as soon as possible. Otherwise, after the effect of the Qingxin Pill faded, his body would be harmed. At the very least, he would have to rest for a few days, and at worst, his tendons and veins would be damaged and he would not be able to practice fighting spirit.

He muttered to himself, "I don't know what the school is thinking. They didn't even tell the freshmen about this kind of dangerous situation. If I hadn't read the original novel and been prepared, I would have been seriously injured without Xiao Yan's strange fire to protect me."

There were some people around who knew Xiao Ling, and they knew that he was the one who had snatched away all of the old man's fire energy in the fire energy hunting competition. Noticing Xiao Ling's reaction just now at the entrance of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower, they originally stopped and planned to gloat over his misfortune. No matter how talented he was, he still had to suffer in front of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower.

It seems that these people already knew that Xiao Ling would encounter this situation after entering, but they deliberately didn't say anything. Their purpose was to see Xiao Ling make a fool of himself.

But what they didn't expect was that Xiao Ling broke free from the burning heart fire in an instant. You know, they all suffered a lot here before they could enter here to practice.

After lightly glancing at those who wanted to see him make a fool of himself, Xiao Ling walked straight into the Tianfen Qi Training Tower.

"Hiss, how did this person recover in an instant?"

"How did he escape from the burning of the heart fire by himself?"

“Is this the gap between geniuses and us?”

……

The first time he came to the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, which was buried deep underground with only a section of the tower tip exposed, the area inside the tower was somewhat beyond Xiao Ling's expectations. As he walked along the way, Xiao Ling discovered that the space inside the first floor of the tower alone was probably enough for 500 people to practice at the same time.

In the circular space inside the tower, there are training rooms of different sizes. However, most of these training rooms are now occupied, and there are some small red signs hanging above the doors of these rooms. However, the words written on the signs are not the same. Xiao Ling stopped and took a look. It turned out that these small red signs had words representing three levels: advanced, intermediate, and low. These should be the levels of the training rooms in the so-called Tianfen Refining Qi Tower.

As he walked slowly from east to south, Xiao Ling discovered that it seemed that all the advanced training rooms were close to the center of the tower, while outside them were the intermediate training rooms and even lower-level training rooms.

Looking at these training rooms, Xiao Ling muttered in his heart: "The fire energy cost of this first floor is the same, but the academy divides the training rooms into different levels. In order to compete for the good training rooms, there must be a lot of fighting here every day. Canaan Academy really demonstrates the principle of the survival of the fittest."

As Xiao Ling walked, his steps suddenly stopped. He looked forward along the direction of his sight and found that he had reached the center of the tower...

Looking at the bottomless black hole in front of him in some astonishment, Xiao Ling slowly took two steps forward, came to the edge of the black hole, and carefully looked down. The pitch-black darkness spread to the end of his sight. The strange darkness with almost no light made Xiao Ling feel a little dizzy.

This black hole seems to run through the entire Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower. If it were not covered by the tower's spire, this dark and deep hole might be visible from the sky at a glance.

In this dark deep cave, if you sense it carefully, you seem to be able to sense that the air here is much hotter than other places. It feels as if there is something at the bottom of the deep cave that is continuously emitting heat to provide to the entire Tianfen Refining Gas Tower.

"This should be the passage leading to the underground magma world. Inside, there are two Fallen Heart Flames, a Dou Zun soul, countless fire lizardmen, a nine-star Dou Sheng Taixu ancient dragon, and the ancient emperor cave that countless people are fascinated by." Thinking about the opportunities inside, Xiao Ling's heart was a little hot.

He shook his head and stopped thinking about these trivial things. Now he was just a small fighting master. He didn't even have the strength to come into contact with the opportunities here. For now, he had to improve his strength as soon as possible.

Chapter 37: Tempering Dou Qi

After leaving the area around the fire well, Xiao Ling walked towards the training room.

Xiao Ling randomly found a low-level training room and walked in, intending to first familiarize himself with the method of using the Fallen Heart Flame to temper his fighting spirit.

Then he closed the door he had opened when he came in, and Xiao Ling began to carefully look at the environment of the training room.

This training room is for one person to practice. In the center of the room, there is a black stone platform that can only accommodate two people sitting on the ground. The platform is about two inches above the ground.

Xiao Ling walked forward and carefully touched the black table with his palm. A faint warmth came through his fingertips. Under this strange warmth, it seemed that the circulation speed of the fighting spirit in his body became a little more active.

"The effect of this Tianfen Qi Training Tower is really obvious, especially for fire-attribute practitioners. It is really twice the result with half the effort to practice in such a place. I really don't know what the effect will be after swallowing that big Fallen Heart Flame." Xiao Ling muttered to himself, then turned over and climbed onto the stone platform.

Sitting cross-legged on the stone platform, feeling the increasingly strong warmth, Xiao Ling let out a long breath, snapped his fingers, and a green fire crystal card appeared in his palm.

He held the Green Fire Crystal Card tightly in both hands and then carefully inserted it into the groove in front of him. There was a slight clicking sound and a faint light burst out from the groove. With the appearance of the light, Xiao Ling clearly saw that the number on the Green Fire Crystal Card immediately decreased by one. Obviously, this should be the deduction of one day's practice fee, that is, one fire energy.

Not long after the fire energy was deducted, Xiao Ling slowly closed his eyes, formed a cultivation seal with his hands, and his body did not move at all, like an old monk in meditation.

In the lonely and peaceful mind, there is only the sound of a long and steady heartbeat, slowly echoing. After entering the state of cultivation, Xiao Ling's perception of the energy between the surrounding heaven and earth has become more acute. He can feel the astonishingly rich and hot energy in this training room. People who practice fire-attributed exercises in such a place will undoubtedly achieve more significant results than others.

"puff……"

His mind became more and more peaceful. Suddenly, a low and subtle sound was heard. Then, a cluster of flames that seemed invisible but had strange fluctuations appeared without warning not far from Xiao Ling's heart. A trace of warmth emanated slowly, making Xiao Ling's body steaming hot.

As he focused his attention on the invisible flame, Xiao Ling once again felt the palpitations of the Fallen Heart Flame's mysterious appearance. Even though he was now on high alert, he still didn't realize how the flame appeared...

Sighing secretly in his heart, Xiao Ling stared at the flame. This flame was undoubtedly more powerful than the flame Xiao Ling encountered at the entrance of Tianfen Qi Training Tower just now. It should be because of this training room.

While enduring the burning pain in the body, the invisible flame rose more and more joyfully, and high temperature seeped out from it, forming a furnace inside the human body. All the organs and even meridians in the human body were being tempered in this furnace, and during the tempering, they were constantly strengthened!

Although the burning pain caused by the high temperature caused Xiao Ling's meridians to twitch slightly occasionally, fortunately, whenever the tendons and veins were damaged, the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor trunk bones in the body would emit life energy to heal them. In this constant destruction and reorganization, his physical fitness was also slowly improving. After persisting in this way for about ten minutes, Xiao Ling's mind moved, and the diamond-shaped Dou crystal in the cyclone suddenly emitted a faint light, and then bursts of tyrannical Dou Qi poured out from it like a flood.

The fighting spirit circulated rapidly in the meridians, and finally, under the guidance of Xiao Ling's soul power, it came to the projection of the Fallen Heart Flame that was emitting high temperature. With a slight movement of his mind, the fighting spirit that had been waiting here immediately rushed down, and the red fighting spirit poured directly into the invisible flame!

The moment the Dou Qi entered the invisible flame, Xiao Ling could clearly feel that the latter suddenly became much hotter at that moment, and the Dou Qi that entered the flame was like boiling water, with something constantly being expelled and peeled off in the high temperature.

This boiling did not last long, and the wisp of Dou Qi successfully emerged from the flames. After emerging from the flames, the Dou Qi was nearly half the size of before, but the energy contained in it was far more powerful and compact than before. Obviously, after being tempered by the invisible flame, this wisp of Dou Qi had successfully lost weight...

After the first strand of successfully tempered Dou Qi produced flames, it circulated along the meridians again under the guidance of Xiao Ling's soul power, and then was poured into the Dou Crystal. At that moment, the light on the surface of the Dou Crystal slightly increased again.

Seeing the change of Dou Jing, Xiao Ling suddenly felt happy. This Fallen Heart Flame is indeed a cultivation accelerator. Such an effect makes anyone jealous. If this matter gets out, even with the status of Canaan College on the mainland, it will inevitably be coveted by others. It seems that there is no such precious place for cultivation in the forces in Zhongzhou. I don't know how Canaan College prevented the news from getting out.

With the success of the first tempering, Xiao Ling put down the last worry in his heart. With a flash of his mind, wisps of Dou Qi were continuously drawn out from the Dou Crystal, then circulated along the meridians, shuttled through the flames, and finally were absorbed into the Dou Crystal again.

He activated the Burning Technique with all his strength, and the fighting spirit around him surrounded Xiao Ling, penetrated into his body through the pores all over his body, and then became more refined after being tempered by the heart fire in his body. This feeling was truly wonderful.

……

There was no exact concept of time during cultivation. Xiao Ling was immersed in the rapidly increasing strength. He was so motivated that he seemed to want to cultivate until he was promoted in one breath.

In the spacious training room, the surface of Xiao Ling's body was wrapped in a layer of faint invisible waves. Wisps of light white mist rose from the top of his head, then gradually faded, until finally turning into nothingness and disappearing.

Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Xiao Ling woke up from his practice, and a flash of red flashed across his eyes. Feeling the heat in his body, Xiao Ling frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable, "It is indeed easy to get fire poison without the protection of the strange fire. Fortunately, I am a pharmacist, otherwise taking drugs would consume a lot of practice resources."

He immediately took out a jade bottle containing the third-grade elixir Qingxin Dan, poured out a milky white pill and put it into his mouth. Feeling the discomfort in his body gradually disappear, Xiao Ling formed a practice hand seal and continued to temper his fighting spirit.

The time of practice passed quietly through fingers like running water. When the sound of an ancient bell resounded throughout the entire tower, Xiao Ling, who had his eyes closed in the practice room, slowly opened his eyes, and excitement flashed in his eyes.

After checking the increased Dou Qi in his body, Xiao Ling was very satisfied. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "At this rate of cultivation, I will soon be able to break through to the Five-Star Grand Dou Master. The function of this Tianfen Qi Training Tower in tempering Dou Qi is very powerful. I don't have to hesitate to take pills in the future."

After reaching Dou Wang level, you can go looking for opportunities in the original novel. The effect of Fallen Heart Flame on Dou Wang is not that great, otherwise there wouldn't be so many elders in the academy with Dou Wang level.

Without thinking too much, Xiao Ling stood up from the stone platform, left the Tianfen Qi Training Tower, and walked in the direction he came from.

Looking at the dense crowds walking out of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower, Xiao Ling was distressed as he remembered that they still had dozens of minutes to run.

Originally, he didn't want to expose Rayquaza in front of outsiders in the inner courtyard, but in order not to waste too much time on the road, he still had to take it out and exercise it.

He clapped his wrists, and Rayquaza emerged from his sleeves, flew in front of Xiao Ling, and let out a long roar towards the sky.

Under the envious gazes of everyone, Xiao Ling jumped up and sat steadily on the back of the Rayquaza.

After patting Rayquaza, which was in tune with his thoughts, he flew into the sky and disappeared from the sight of these students in a flash.

The students around saw this scene and started talking about it.

"I really envy that person. He has a magic beast to ride when he returns to the dormitory. This can save a lot of training time."

"Isn't that the freshman Xiao Ling? Does anyone know what kind of monster he has? How come I have never seen one? If I had seen such a handsome monster, I would definitely not forget it."

"I just entered the inner courtyard last year. I asked around when I was in the outer courtyard. I think it was called something like Rayquaza."

"I wish I could raise a monster as handsome as this one."

In the clouds, Xiao Ling felt the wind blowing in his face, feeling extremely refreshed. He looked at the Split Sky Seat below him and thought to himself, "I can still take the Split Sky Seat out for a walk in the Northwest Continent, but I can't take this guy with me to Zhongzhou. It will inevitably attract other people's attention and cause trouble. It's better to let this guy follow Xun'er to the Ancient Clan to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks."

I shook my head and stopped thinking about it. It’s still too early for me to think about these things now. I should just live every day to the fullest.

Chapter 38 Zi Yan

Riding Rayquaza back to the freshman dormitory area, Xiao Ling jumped off the ground when he arrived at the gate of his own courtyard, touched Rayquaza's head, and said with a smile: "Go play with your sister Xun'er, and ask her for more pills. Her family doesn't need another mouth to feed."

Likongzuo nodded, rubbed Xiao Ling's face with his head, and flew towards Xiao Xun'er's yard, probably planning to have a good meal.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling shook his head and smiled, pushed open the gate and walked into the yard.

As soon as he opened the gate, he felt the aftermath of the battle. He casually slapped away a wave of energy flying towards him and looked into the yard.

All I saw was Lin Yan and Liu Qing fighting fiercely in the open space in the yard.

Lin Xiuya, who was standing by, saw Xiao Ling coming back and nodded and greeted him.

Xiao Ling walked up to them and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with these two people? Why are they fighting here?"

Lin Xiuya smiled and shook his head, and said helplessly: "Lin Yan took the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill that you made before, and his cultivation has caught up with Liu Qing, so Lin Yan found Liu Qing, and the two of them started to spar. In your opinion, who will win between the two?"

Xiao Ling looked at it for a while and replied, "Lin Yan definitely cannot beat Liu Qing. He has just broken through and his realm is not stable yet. He cannot perfectly control his own strength. Moreover, he is younger than Liu Qing. Liu Qing just hasn't taken the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill yet. There is still a certain gap between the two in terms of cultivation."

Without further ado, Xiao Ling inquired about the "Supreme Freedom Sect" and said, "How is the formation of the force going? Have you recruited new members?"

Lin Xiuya touched his chin and replied, "I have already submitted an application to the elders of the academy, and they have agreed. We have not yet recruited any members, and we are now preparing to make the faction uniforms and badges."

Xiao Ling was quite satisfied with the situation. After all, it was only the second day since he entered the inner courtyard, and the progress was already very good. After thinking for a while, Xiao Ling said, "Don't recruit those who like to cause trouble into our forces, and don't recruit those who are too weak, so that they won't come to trouble us when they cause trouble or are bullied. I'm not the kind of person who likes to clean up other people's messes. We just need to treat the people in our forces better."

After hearing this, Lin Xiuya nodded in agreement and replied, "Don't worry, I will pay attention to these things." In the Douqi Continent, strength is respected, and only those who are strong enough can get the respect of others.

Xiao Ling nodded slightly, thinking of the matter at the Tianfen Qi Training Tower, and told Lin Xiuya about what happened today. …

"Get some more Qingxin Pill ingredients, and I'll help you refine them into pills. That way, you won't have to worry about training in the Tianfen Qi Training Tower."

"Don't worry, I'll take this matter to heart."

Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Ling decided to practice alchemy. He said goodbye to Lin Xiuya and walked towards his room.

After returning to his room, Xiao Ling took out the medicine cauldron, injected beast fire into it, and began to refine the Qingxin Pill. This kind of pill could be used many times in the future, so he could refine more.

After arriving at the inner courtyard, Xiao Ling's daily life began to become regular. He went to the Tianfen Qi Training Tower to practice fighting spirit every day, practiced alchemy in his own courtyard, and helped some students or elders refine pills. Sometimes he went to the arena in the academy to compete with others, improve his practical experience, and earn some fire energy. When he was bored, he would accompany Han Yue or Xiao Xun'er to take a walk in the academy. His life was very leisurely.

……

In the quiet courtyard, Xiao Ling was sitting cross-legged on the grass with a medicine cauldron placed in front of him. The seals in his hands kept changing, controlling the flames to warm a milky white pill.

As Xiao Ling's hand seals changed rapidly, the flame inside the medicine cauldron began to shrink rapidly, and a pill appeared in Xiao Ling's sight. It was a Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill.

Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill, a fourth-grade pinnacle elixir, can increase a Great Fighting Master's strength by one star, and will not have too much resistance. In other words, if a Great Fighting Master can collect two Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pills, he can steadily increase his strength by two stars.

In the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy, the vast majority of students are at the Dou Ling and Great Dou Shi realms, so the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill is the elixir that most people pursue.

When Xiao Ling has time, he will refine a few of them and give them to Lin Xiuya, who will then sell them through the "Supreme Freedom Sect" to earn some fire energy.

Only when you manage a household do you know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. After coming to the inner courtyard, if he wants to practice fighting spirit at the bottom of the Tianfen Qi Training Tower, the fire energy required is not a small amount. Moreover, he does not intend to let Xiao Xun'er and Han Yue waste time to earn fire energy, so it is a good choice to practice alchemy while refining some of these marketable pills.

He took out a porcelain bottle, slightly activated the suction palm, and the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill fell into the bottle.

Just as Xiao Ling was about to put it into the ring, he suddenly felt a ripple in the space. A white little hand suddenly appeared in his sight and took the porcelain bottle from Xiao Ling's hand before he could react.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling was also shocked. Even though he had not focused on sensing the surroundings just now, he still paid attention to some of the surrounding situations. If the person coming was going to harm him, it might be very dangerous.

Xiao Ling quickly distanced himself from the previous position and focused his soul perception on the previous location.
