Originally, this step was extremely difficult. After all, the fire spirit in the strange fire had a little bit of intelligence, and it had an instinctive resistance to some dangerous things. If it failed to be driven away by force, the strange fire that had already completed the initial refining would probably backfire again!

But because of Xiao Xun'er's instructions, this Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame did not have the slightest intention of disobeying Xiao Ling's control. And when it approached Na Ling, it seemed to have sensed something and took the initiative to drill into that strange space.

As Xiao Ling successfully refined the fire, waves of energy ripples suddenly and rapidly emerged on the surface of the golden light shield that had been in silence. Then, a powerful aura suddenly spread out from the flame light shield.

Above the light shield, as the speed of the energy ripples became more and more violent, finally, tiny cracks suddenly appeared on the round light shield. The cracks slowly spread out, and finally covered the entire light shield. At first glance, it looked like a golden egg covered with cracks.

"Crack." A crisp sound echoed in the training room. A small piece of energy fell quietly from the golden light shield and landed on the floor. The scorching heat it carried immediately melted the ground and created a small pit.

"Crack... crack." When the first piece of energy fragment fell, the golden energy shield suddenly trembled violently. The trembling lasted for a moment. At a certain moment, the golden shield exploded with a loud bang.

Xiao Ling, who was sitting cross-legged inside, also revealed his naked body.

In the ink-black eyes, there was a faint golden flame. After a while, it suddenly surged up and covered the entire eye. For a moment, Xiao Ling's pupils turned golden, and he looked as if he was dominating the world.

After opening his eyes, Xiao Ling twisted his neck slightly. Suddenly, the collision of bones made a very smooth crackling sound. Listening to the crisp sound, Xiao Ling took a deep breath, his face full of comfort and intoxication.

Chapter 48: Departure to the Gama Empire

He lowered his head slightly and looked around, and found that his body seemed to have been tempered. His physical strength was slightly improved, and his skin was whiter and smoother than before.

Suddenly a breeze blew, causing his body to react slightly. Xiao Ling then remembered that his clothes were burned when he absorbed the strange fire. He hurriedly took out a set of moon-white clothes from the ring beside him and put them on.

After feeling the situation in his body, Xiao Ling was very satisfied and said to himself: "Although the energy of this seed fire is not much, the quality is very good. Now the "Burning Art" has been upgraded from the low level of the Xuan level to the middle level of the Xuan level, and the cultivation level has also been upgraded from Dou Wang three stars to Dou Wang four stars. At least three months of cultivation time has been saved. After all, it is just a seed fire, which is not bad. Moreover, the benefits brought by refining the strange fire are long-lasting and hidden. In the years to come, as I become more proficient in controlling them, the benefits I get will only become greater and greater..."

Shaking his head, Xiao Ling stopped thinking about these trivial things. Now he had to summon out his own strange fire to take a look.

His left hand slowly stretched out, and then his eyes gradually closed. His mind flashed rapidly in his body, and he sent out an order.

As the command was issued, the body reacted at the same time. In the center of the Dou Qi cyclone, a small gray light spot trembled slightly. After a moment of silence, a wisp of golden flame suddenly burst out.

The golden flame passed through the Dou Crystal, then flowed rapidly along the meridians in the body. After a blink of an eye, it entered the meridians in the arm.

In the training room, Xiao Ling, who had his eyes slightly closed, suddenly opened them abruptly. The golden flames flashed through his eyes again. He suddenly opened his fists with his palms facing upwards. With a touch of excitement on his face, he shouted softly, "Gold Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, appear!"

As Xiao Ling's shout fell, his right palm trembled slightly, and then, a surging golden flame instantly burst out and quickly wrapped around his palm.

Feeling the blazing heat it radiated, and watching the space around the flame being slightly distorted, Xiao Ling was very satisfied and couldn't help but exclaimed: "The Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame is indeed terrifying. Unlike other strange fires that have some functions, it is purely high in damage output and ranks fourth on the Strange Fire List. With my Dou Wang cultivation, I can activate this flame. A Dou Zong strongman who is caught off guard and hit by it will be seriously injured. It's just that I'm not too familiar with controlling this flame yet, so it may be a little inconvenient to use it to refine medicine. But I just happened to get the "Distraction Control Method", so I can practice the "Distraction Control Method" while getting familiar with this flame."

After taking the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame back into his body, Xiao Ling looked around the training room. It was full of potholes and even the stone platform made of special stone was a little damaged. Xiao Ling scratched his head and muttered to himself, "I have to tell Lin Xiuya before I leave the academy and ask them to call someone to fix it."

After walking out of the training room and checking the time, he found that it took about an hour to devour the fire. Lin Xiuya, who had gotten up early, had already walked to the yard and started practicing fighting skills.

Seeing Xiao Ling coming out, Lin Xiuya stopped what he was doing, greeted Xiao Ling, and asked, "Xiao Ling, are you leaving school soon?"

Nodding slightly, Xiao Ling replied: "Wait for Zi Yan to come over later, we will set off soon."

"Then aren't you going to say goodbye to everyone? What about Han Yue and your cousin?" Lin Xiuya asked with some confusion.

Waving his hand, Xiao Ling smiled and said, "I already talked about that yesterday, and I don't like this feeling of parting, so don't miss me at school."

"Why would a grown man like me miss you? You're so narcissistic. But you should be careful when you go out to gain experience." Lin Xiuya said unhappily.

"Don't worry, I will be careful. I care about my life very much. By the way, there was an accident in my training room. Please help me contact someone to repair it." Sensing Zi Yan's breath approaching, Xiao Ling waved to Lin Xiuya, left a word, then spread his fighting wings and left the yard.

Looking at Xiao Lingfei's figure flying into the sky, Lin Xiuya murmured to himself: "I don't know if we can catch up with you in the future, and what level of cultivation you will reach when we meet next time."

……

Not long after flying into the sky, Xiao Ling saw a petite figure waving purple fighting wings from a distance. It was Zi Yan, who was going to travel with Xiao Ling.

When Zi Yan on the opposite side saw Xiao Ling, she instantly increased her speed, and with a powerful shake of her fighting wings, she turned into a purple ray of light and rushed towards Xiao Ling. The surrounding space seemed to have ripples, as if clearing a path for Zi Yan's body.

In the blink of an eye, Zi Yan threw herself into Xiao Ling's arms, causing Xiao Ling to flap his wings to stabilize his body. Fortunately, Zi Yan slowed down after approaching, and Xiao Ling's physical strength was not bad, otherwise, if an ordinary Dou Wang strongman was hit by this Taixu Ancient Dragon Head Hammer, his bones might be broken.

Zi Yan rubbed her cheek against Xiao Ling's arms and smelled the fascinating medicinal fragrance on Xiao Ling's body. She couldn't help but feel a little hungry. She asked with some anticipation: "Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, when are we going to set off? When the time comes, we must search for medicinal herbs carefully."

Touching Zi Yan's smooth purple hair helplessly, Xiao Ling smiled and said, "Since we are ready, let's go directly. Let's go to the school to borrow a flying monster. The body of the Splinter Cell is relatively slender. Although it is fast to sit on, the riding experience is not as comfortable as the house on the flying monster. I am not in a hurry to fly back to the Jia Ma Empire. It just so happens that the energy of the Splinter Cell has not been digested after taking the medicinal herbs, so let it sleep for a while."

Hearing this, Zi Yan in his arms nodded and said, "Then let's quickly go to the elder who guards the barrier and get a flying monster."

The two said no more, flapped their fighting wings, and walked towards the inner courtyard space door.

They took a griffin from the elder at the barrier, and Xiao Ling and his companions flew on this flying magical beast for more than an hour before reaching the outer courtyard.

……

The outer courtyard of Canaan College.

After leaving the flying beast at the flying station of the outer courtyard, Xiao Ling took Zi Yan and walked towards the office of Hu Qian, the vice president of the outer courtyard.

After all, Vice Dean Hu Qian took good care of me when I was in the outer courtyard. Now that I am leaving Canaan College for training, I should say goodbye.

Walking through the quiet bluestone path, looking at the familiar scenery here, Xiao Ling couldn't help but sigh: "It has been nearly five years since I left. Those students from the outer courtyard who were in the same class as me have either entered the inner courtyard for training or failed the selection and left the academy. There are no students in the outer courtyard who can recognize me."

Zi Yan stretched out a small hand to hold Xiao Ling's and asked curiously, "I was brought back to the inner courtyard by old man Su. I have never been to the outer courtyard. Xiao Ling, what do you think is the difference between the outer courtyard and the inner courtyard?"

Touching his chin, Xiao Ling thought for a while, and then said, "The inner and outer courtyards of Canaan College are obviously different in terms of student strength, resources, selection conditions, educational environment, teachers and leaders, and student backgrounds. As the core of Canaan College, the inner courtyard provides top students with a more superior learning and growth environment, and they can enjoy high-level resources, such as the Fallen Heart Flame in the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower. This kind of fire helps students refine their fighting spirit and greatly improves their training efficiency. The difference between the inner and outer courtyards is huge. The cultivation level of the inner courtyard students is much higher than that of the outer courtyard students, which is not the point. The point is that the atmosphere between the inner and outer courtyards is completely different. The inner courtyard of Canaan College is more like a small society than the outer courtyard. It is also good for those students to accept the cruelty of society in advance. After all, this world is ultimately about strength. There are countless intrigues. If you go out to train without going through some setbacks, you will easily be pitted to the point of being left with nothing."

Reaching out and touching Zi Yan's head, Xiao Ling smiled and continued, "None of this matters. As long as you are strong enough, you don't have to worry about anything. You can just break it with force."

Zi Yan was thoughtful, her eyes rolled around, she put her arm around Xiao Ling and said, "Then I have to eat more herbs, so that my strength will improve faster, and I will punish anyone I am unhappy with in the future."

Hearing this, Xiao Ling smiled and agreed: "What you said is not wrong, but you need to have so many medicinal herbs to eat."

Shaking Xiao Ling's arm, Zi Yan said pitifully: "Xiao Ling, can I have a larger daily quota of pills?"

Nodding, Xiao Ling replied: "Now your strength has also increased a lot. As long as you listen to me carefully during this training, I will make more pills for you to eat."

Hearing that she would have more pills to eat if she was obedient, Zi Yan patted her chest and vowed, "Don't worry, I will be obedient. I will beat whoever you want me to beat."

"Haha, then you have to keep your word."

"Uh-huh!"

The two chatted and laughed as they slowly walked towards the vice president's office in the morning light.

……

After a while, the two came to an elegant attic and stopped.

Holding Zi Yan's hand, Xiao Ling went forward and knocked on the door, then said to the inside: "Vice President Hu Qian, I'm Xiao Ling, are you free now?"

Hu Qian, who was checking documents in the office, heard Xiao Ling's voice coming from outside the door and replied with some surprise: "Xiao Ling, why are you in the outer courtyard? Come in quickly."

Xiao Ling, who was outside the door, heard this, opened the door, and walked in with Zi Yan.

Seeing Xiao Ling and Zi Yan walking into the house, Hu Qian stroked his beard and said kindly, "Xiao Ling and Zi Yan, why don't you stay in the inner courtyard? Why do you come to this old man like me?"

Xiao Ling bowed slightly before answering, "Now that my cultivation has broken through to Dou Wang, the inner courtyard can no longer help me. I plan to return to my family and gain some experience in the Jia Ma Empire and its surroundings to find some opportunities. When I leave the academy, I naturally have to say goodbye to you, the dean."

Nodding, Hu Qian said with relief: "I was right about you back then. In less than five years, you have become a Dou Wang strongman. Your cultivation talent is truly amazing. You can come out of the inner courtyard. It seems that Great Elder Su Qian has agreed with you. I have nothing to say. You must be careful when you are training outside. Don't be careless. Protecting yourself is more important than anything else."

"Don't worry, Vice President, I will pay attention to the details." After Xiao Ling finished speaking, he took out a porcelain bottle from the ring and handed it to Hu Qian.

Hu Qian took the porcelain bottle and asked curiously, "Xiao Ling, what does this mean?"

Xiao Ling smiled and replied, "There are two Breaking Sect Pills in here. After I broke through to the sixth-rank alchemist, I searched for materials in the Magic Beast Mountain Range and exchanged some medicinal materials in the medicinal material warehouse before I refined them. One is for you to use, and the other one is for me to pass on to Elder Huo. Thank you for your careful teaching in the outer courtyard."

In fact, this was not the Po Zong Dan that Xiao Ling had refined himself. He had just extracted three from the system, and now that two had been given away, Xiao Ling still had one left. Before leaving the inner courtyard, Xiao Ling had also mentioned this to Elder Su Qian. If there were elders who needed to refine Po Zong Dan, they could start preparing the herbs, and when Xiao Ling returned from his training, he would come to help the elders refine the pills. There were still some herbs for Po Zong Dan in the Canaan Academy treasury, but those elders were individuals after all, and could not directly mobilize the resources of the school. They could only exchange them with privileges. It would definitely require some resource exchanges to gather the herbs. When Xiao Ling returned to the academy, the collection of herbs should be completed.

Hearing that it was the Po Zong Dan he had been dreaming of, Hu Qian was shocked and quickly opened the porcelain bottle. He took a closer look and saw two milky white pills lying inside. The precious light around them was dense and jumped from time to time, which looked quite extraordinary. It was the Po Zong Dan, a sixth-grade top pill that could increase the chances of Dou Huang breaking through to Dou Zong.

Putting away the porcelain bottle in his hand, Hu Qian said with some emotion: "I didn't expect that your cultivation level improved so quickly, and your alchemy skills also made great progress. You can even refine the sixth-grade top elixir like the Po Zong Pill. I can't take your elixir for nothing. Although you may not be able to use these things, you should still accept them. When you return to the family, you can give it to the younger generations." After that, Hu Qian took out a storage ring and threw it to Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling did not refuse. He held the ring in his hand, probed his soul perception into it, and checked it. The ring contained some martial arts and fighting skills. The highest level was a low-level earth-level wood-attribute martial arts, and there were countless other mysterious-level martial arts and fighting skills. The collection of the old Douhuang peak powerhouse was indeed quite a lot, including all kinds of attributes.

After Xiao Ling put away the ring, he took Zi Yan's hand and said goodbye to Hu Qian, "Vice President Hu Qian, we will be leaving now. I wish you success in breaking through to the Dou Zong realm." After saying that, he turned and left the room, spread his Dou Qi wings, and flew into the sky.

Looking at the two figures leaving, Hu Qian said to himself: "The latent dragon has emerged from the abyss. I look forward to your name spreading throughout the Douqi Continent and writing a magnificent story."

Chapter 49 Flight Path

With their Dou Wang-level cultivation, they used their Dou Qi wings to fly in the sky. In less than a quarter of an hour, they had arrived at the flying station.

Under the envious and awe-inspiring gazes of the students in the outer courtyard, the two of them slowly flapped their fighting wings and descended from the air to the ground.

The instructor who was in charge of order saw Xiao Ling and the others coming back, and said hello to them with a smile: "It seems that you are ready to set off. I have already fed the griffin once. As long as we feed it again, with its fourth-level magical beast's cultivation, it should not be a problem to fly to the Jiama Empire within half a month."

Nodding to the instructor and throwing a porcelain bottle to him, Xiao Ling smiled and said, "Thank you for your care, instructor. This contains a Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill, which can improve the cultivation level of a Grand Fighter by one star without any side effects. Thank you for accompanying me in the battle in the outer courtyard before, which enriched my practical experience. This is just a small token of my appreciation."

The instructor took the porcelain bottle containing the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill and accepted it without pretense. He smiled and joked, "As expected of a sixth-rank alchemist, you are generous. I will accept it shamelessly. Be careful when you are out there training and pay attention to your own safety."

After waving to the instructor, Xiao Ling took Zi Yan's little hand, circulated his fighting spirit slightly, jumped up, and landed steadily on the back of the griffin.

After touching the griffin's head, Xiao Ling pointed in the direction of the Jia Ma Empire, threw a second-grade pill into its mouth, and said, "Big guy, I'll leave it to you on the way."

As if it understood Xiao Ling's words, or perhaps for the sake of the pill in its mouth, the griffin nodded cooperatively, and after making a cry, it jumped up more than ten meters high, then flapped its broad wings vigorously a few times and began to fly into the sky.

Feeling the breeze blowing in his face and watching the Canaan College getting smaller and smaller in his field of vision, Xiao Ling couldn't help but sigh: "The story of Canaan College is about to come to an end."

Holding Zi Yan's little hand, the two of them entered the room on the back of the griffin. They would spend the next ten days or so here.

After entering the room, Zi Yan shook Xiao Ling's arm and asked expectantly, "Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, where are today's pills?"

Reaching out and touching Zi Yan's smooth purple hair, Xiao Ling said lovingly: "Don't worry, I'm ready."

Taking out a bottle of pills from the ring, Xiao Ling handed it to Zi Yan and warned her, "You can't eat them all at once. Even if you have extraordinary blood, your body will feel uncomfortable if you take in too much energy. Go to the next room to take the pills and practice. I'll practice fighting skills in this room for a while."

Nodding vigorously, Zi Yan raised her head and said in a somewhat funny way: "Don't worry, don't worry, I will be fine." After that, she took out a pill from the porcelain bottle, threw it into her mouth, and ran into another room.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling could only shake his head helplessly. What else could he do? He could only pamper her. With Xiao Ling's status as a sixth-grade alchemist, it was more than enough to raise Zi Yan with pills made from some fifth-grade medicinal materials.

He walked to the table, pulled out a chair, and sat on it. He took out the "Distraction Control Method" extracted from the system from the ring, and Xiao Ling first read the content completely, and then began to practice according to the steps recorded above.

The practice method of distraction control is not complicated. Different people have different practice methods. As long as you can control yourself from multitasking, you can be considered to have gotten started.

To practice the distraction control method well, one must first have a strong soul perception ability. For Xiao Ling, who has already broken through the spiritual realm, it is already an easy thing. But to practice this skill well, to put it simply, one must be able to control multiple directions while being able to concentrate.

This is indeed a bit difficult for Xiao Ling. Everyone has habits. When doing one thing, they used to concentrate on it alone. Now they have to control multiple directions at the same time, which is really a bit difficult to adapt to.

He raised his hands and opened his clenched fists, while activating the fused beast fire and the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame in his body. "Puff..." A blue-pink beast fire appeared on his left hand and the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame leaped out on his right hand.

Xiao Ling began to use his soul power to control the two flames at the same time to make different shapes in order to achieve the effect of training multitasking.

At the beginning, Xiao Ling would subconsciously focus on one flame. After several failures, relying on his strong soul perception, Xiao Ling was soon able to control two flames at the same time. He separated another flame from the beast fire and began to control three flames at the same time, gradually increasing the difficulty, making the movements of the flames more and more difficult...

After less than an hour, Xiao Ling had already reached the realm of the Three Aperture Controlled Heart. He could already do three things at once very easily. However, the difficulty would increase exponentially when practicing to a higher realm. If Xiao Ling wanted to reach the Seven Aperture Exquisite Heart, he still had to continue practicing.

Practicing this secret method not only allows you to do multiple things at once, but also increases your control over your soul perception. Using soul perception can achieve better results, which is indeed a good skill for alchemists. When refining low-level pills, you can refine more than one pill at a time, and extracting liquid medicine can also refine several medicinal materials at a time, which can greatly speed up the speed of refining pills. As long as you concentrate all your attention when condensing the pill, the success rate of refining the pill will not be affected.

During the following flight, the days became regular. He practiced the "Distraction Control Method" every day, practiced alchemy, practiced fighting spirit at night, chatted and played with Zi Yan, and teased his monster Rayquaza. With the company of Zi Yan and Rayquaza, this not-so-short journey was quite interesting, which made Xiao Ling determine that taking Zi Yan with him was a wise choice.

……

Half a month passed by in a flash.

In the room, Xiao Ling sat cross-legged. In front of him were seven fourth-level medicinal herbs, which were being tempered by Xiao Ling using the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame.

Zi Yan, who was standing aside, stared intently at Xiao Ling's movements, fearing that he would accidentally burn the herbs he had just snatched from the monsters.

After several herbs were refined into liquid medicine, Xiao Ling took out a few special sugar pills from the ring and threw them into the ring. Then he condensed the liquid medicine into round pills.

Zi Yan, who was staring at Xiao Ling, noticed this scene. Her eyes instantly lit up with golden light. She took out a porcelain bottle from her ring, opened the stopper, and shook it at Xiao Ling.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling couldn't help but twitch his lips. This girl really cares most about whether there is food or not. He stretched out his hand and the pills fell into the porcelain bottle in Zi Yan's hand.

When the last one was about to fly into the bottle, Zi Yan simply opened her mouth wide and swallowed it in one gulp, which made Xiao Ling on the opposite side laugh.

After sealing the porcelain bottle with a stopper and putting it into the storage ring, Zi Yan smiled at Xiao Ling and said, "Thank you very much, Xiao Ling. Your method is quite good. The speed of refining the pills is much faster than before."

Xiao Ling replied: "I have recently practiced a method of controlling soul perception, which is very helpful in refining pills."

Nodding, Zi Yan stopped talking about this matter and asked again: "Can we go to the Jiama Empire today? I really want to see what your and Xun'er's family looks like."

Picking up the map in his hand and taking a look, Xiao Ling replied: "With the speed of the griffin, we can reach the Ghost Town Pass in another hour. That is the southernmost part of the Jiama Empire, and there are many cities between it and the Xiao family in Wutan City."

After putting the map into his ring, Xiao Ling looked in the direction of the Jiama Empire and thought, "First, send a letter to the Xiao family and ask them to move to the imperial capital. This way, even if the Yunlan Sect wants to secretly attack the Xiao family, with my identity as a sixth-rank alchemist, I will have to think twice in a crowded place like the imperial capital."

He looked towards the Tagor Desert. There was an old man there who could be pulled out to work for him. It should be more than enough for him to help take care of the Xiao family. He had done his best for the Xiao family to this extent. If he could not do it for himself, he could only protect himself. His own safety was the most important thing.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 50 Arrival Plus

After more than an hour of flying, Xiao Ling and his companions were getting closer to their destination. According to the map, they would soon reach the border of the Jiama Empire...

Time passed in a boring flight. When the endless and long journey once again crossed a majestic mountain, the outline of a huge fortress suddenly appeared at the end of the sight.
