After confirming multiple times.
Lin Xiu did not refuse any further and accepted more than a thousand Fire Energy, indicating that if there was a need for help in the future, he would not hesitate to help.
Su Xiao and Xiu Yan smiled and accepted, each having their own destination, and they left first.
Inside the room.
Leng Bai asked, "Lin Xiu, what are your plans next?"
Having been in the same team as Lin Xiu before, he had now become an enemy of the crowd, and there were no other forces he temporarily wanted to join.
Not to mention Du Chaoping.
"I just woke up, I don't have any plans yet. Do you have any suggestions? We're all familiar with each other, feel free to speak up," Lin Xiu said calmly.
"I want to go see the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower. The old folks have been talking about it as if it's a holy place," Leng Bai expressed curiosity about what exactly made the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower so formidable.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiu agreed to accompany him.
The Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower suppresses the Fallen Heart Flame and uses its avatar projection to refine Dou Qi, thereby accelerating cultivation speed.
It is said that the first time one enters the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower and refines with the Heart Flame, there will be great gains.
However, it is unknown how much it can accelerate one's progress.
Before setting off, Lin Xiu changed into clean clothes.
During this interval, he glanced at his own panel.
[Name: Lin Xiu]
[Age: 19]
[Realm: 4 Star Dou Grandmaster(3K/4K)]
[Constitution: 60]
[Spirit: 60]
[Aptitude: 40]
[Ability]:
...
Black Rank Low Level Secret Technique: Wind and Thunder Shattering Limits Lv5 (405/500)
...
Earth Rank Mid Level Dou Technique: Starlight Body Forging Technique Lv6 (550/600)
...
...
[Attribute Points: 0]
"I didn't gain much experience points in this Fire Energy Hunting Competition."
Most of the Dou Techniques have long reached their maximum level, and Lin Xiu only gained experience in Wind and Thunder Shattering Limits and Starlight Body Forging Technique.
"After coming out of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, I'll pay a visit to the Dou Technique Hall. If I can exchange for Yellow Rank Low Level Dou Techniques, it would be the best."
Lin Xiu is not lacking in Dou Techniques at the moment; what he lacks are Attribute Points.
He has practiced many Dou Techniques, gaining ample experience, so low-level Dou Techniques are easy for him to master, and his experience increases rapidly.
The three of them then left their residence and headed north towards the inner courtyard.
Along the way,
some people recognized Lin Xiu and cast glances at him, either staring or discussing with their companions.
In response to Leng Bai's teasing, Lin Xiu's expression remained unchanged.
Upon entering the inner courtyard, Lin Xiu was already able to do many things without feeling as restrained as before.
On one hand, his strength had improved. Although he did not have a high realm, he still had some power to protect himself.
On the other hand, within the inner courtyard, with the help of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, the speed of his cultivation will greatly increase.
After walking a long distance, a deep pit suddenly appeared ahead.
Inside the sunken terrain, there stood a massive black tower.
This black tower only had its first layer, with the tip of the tower protruding above the ground.
Around the black tower, upon careful observation, one could see distorted spatial fluctuations, very similar to the spatial locks seen in the previous library.
When Lin Xiu and his two companions arrived, it was already noon.
The Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower has already been activated, and there aren't many people outside.
Approaching the gate of the black tower, instead of feeling heat waves, a chill swept over them.
"Newcomers?"
"That looks like Lin Xiu."
"They're going into the tower. I wonder if anyone has informed them beforehand. This should be interesting."
Whether inside or outside the tower, people noticed Lin Xiu and his two companions.
"Lin Xiu, what are they discussing?" Leng Bai's gaze scanned those people with curiosity.
His senses were not as sharp as Lin Xiu's, so he couldn't hear clearly.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiu was about to respond when suddenly he froze.
Because they kept walking, and at this moment, the three of them had already stepped into the gate of the black tower, entering the tower.
It was almost instantaneous.
The expressions of the three suddenly changed, their faces turning red as if burning charcoal.
Moreover, wisps of white smoke accompanied by a sizzling sound emerged from their bodies.
"Oh, these three guys just barged in without knowing anything."
"Interesting, how long do you think Lin Xiu can hold out?"
"He can defeat Han Yue, at least no less than seventeen minutes, Han Yue lasted for seventeen minutes."
At that moment, inside and outside the tower, some old students gathered around.
"Make way, make way, Elder Liu is coming."
With shouts, the crowd cleared a path, and a plainly dressed old man walked in.
He was the elder of the first level of Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
With just a glance, Elder Liu understood that these three were obviously new students who had just entered the institution without any authorization, and they rashly intruded into Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
Pfft!
Elder Liu raised his hand, wisps of milky white flames appeared, forming a fire vortex in the palm of his hand.
"Elder Liu, hold on a moment." Suddenly, a young man in the crowd spoke up to stop him.
"What do you want to say, Bai Cheng?" Elder Liu looked at him and asked.
Bai Cheng pointed to Lin Xiu, "Elder, this is Lin Xiu who defeated Han Yue in this year's Fire Energy Hunting Competition. Why not see how talented he is and how long he can endure?"
"He's Lin Xiu?"
Following Bai Cheng's gesture, Elder Liu looked over and couldn't help but pause for a moment.
Although he was the elder guarding the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, the commotion caused by this Fire Energy Hunting Competition had spread throughout the inner courtyard, so he couldn't remain unaware.
Therefore, Elder Liu also knew that among the new students in this Fire Energy Hunting Competition, there was a formidable contender.
With this in mind, the speed of the fire vortex in his palm involuntarily slowed down significantly.
Bai Cheng glanced sideways, a faint smile playing at the corner of his mouth.
It's said that Lin Xiu used a Secret Technique to break through his realm in the Fire Energy Hunting Competition, resulting in injuries to his body.
It's only been a day, so he definitely hasn't fully recovered yet.
He knows well the power of Heartfire, but he's unsure if it will affect Lin Xiu's foundation.
Elder Liu probably doesn't know these details. If Lin Xiu's meridians were damaged, maybe he could challenge him in a month.
With both new and old students, and so much Fire Energy available, even if Lin Xiu shared, he'd probably have plenty left. It's impossible to use it all up in a month.
If he could acquire it for himself, he could exchange it for a Green Fire Crystal Card.
Bai Cheng remained calm, but his mind raced with various thoughts.
At this moment.
Elder Liu was unaware of Bai Cheng's thoughts. After waiting for a while and noticing Du Chaoping's uneasy expression, he released a milky white fire vortex that stopped at Du Chaoping's chest.
"Come out!"
With a low shout, the white fire vortex erupted with suction force, pulling out a slightly distorted strand of invisible flame.
Du Chaoping slumped on the ground, his fiery red skin gradually returning to normal.
"Elder, what about them?" Du Chaoping looked at Lin Xiu and Leng Bai, feeling somewhat worried.
Elder Liu replied, "No need to worry, with me here, their lives are not in danger."
Hearing this, Du Chaoping breathed a sigh of relief. "May I ask, Elder, how long will this last?"
"Once Heartfire enters the body, it's hard to determine an exact duration. It depends entirely on individual strength and talent. The higher their talent, the stronger their previous foundation, and the stronger their body's meridians, the longer they can endure," Elder Liu explained.
"Our junior brother used a Secret Technique and his body hasn't fully recovered from the injury, so he probably won't last long," Du Chaoping commented, his gaze falling on Lin Xiu.
Suddenly.
A gust of wind swept by.
Elder Liu was now standing in front of Du Chaoping. "What did you just say?"
"Our junior brother's body is injured..." Du Chaoping answered instinctively.
Elder Liu's expression turned somewhat urgent. "What kind of injury?"
"I don't know the specifics. Elder Zhao said it would damage his meridians. He also gave our junior brother a Revitalizing Pill, saying otherwise it would take at least half a month to recover," Du Chaoping answered truthfully.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Elder Liu's expression change, anxiety filling his eyes.
