Chereads / I cannot be Martial Ancestor, then I will be Emperor Yan. / Chapter 22 - Chapter 22: Nurturing Success, Devouring Purple Fire!

Chapter 22 - Chapter 22: Nurturing Success, Devouring Purple Fire!

At this moment, even the Medicine Elder couldn't help but feel somewhat surprised when he saw the purple fire Lin Yan took out.

His surprise wasn't because of how noble the purple fire was but because he saw hope for the evolution of the Burning Technique!

Thus, he couldn't help but ask Lin Yan, "Young friend, where did you get this?"

Lin Yan didn't hide anything and directly replied, "This, I obtained it from the system."

The Medicine Elder felt a bit disappointed upon hearing this. "I see, I thought you obtained it from this world."

But he quickly understood. Since Lin Yan could obtain beast fire from the system, wouldn't it also mean that he might obtain divine fire in the future?

From this perspective, it seemed that Lin Yan's chances of obtaining divine fire in the future became even greater?

Thinking of this, the Medicine Elder swept away his previous sense of loss and smiled at Lin Yan, "Congratulations, young friend."

"Now that you can obtain beast fire, it may not be impossible to obtain divine fire in the future. And as long as you can obtain divine fire, the improvement for you will be extremely significant."

Lin Yan nodded in response to this.

As for the Medicine Elder beside him, he quickly asked Lin Yan, "By the way, young friend, how do you plan to deal with this beast fire?"

Lin Yan directly told the Medicine Elder his plan:

"Elder Medicine, I plan to use the Burning Technique to devour this thing."

"Although it's just beast fire, due to the low level of the Burning Technique at the moment, after devouring it, I can still gain some improvement."

"And most importantly, I don't have divine fire yet. So compared to the elemental fire created by my own soul power, this beast fire is obviously more useful, whether it's for combat or alchemy."

He explained his thoughts step by step. In fact, although it was Lin Yan's first time practicing the Burning Technique, because he had seen Battle Through the Heavens, he was very clear about the upgrade route of the Burning Technique. Therefore, he could design a suitable upgrade route himself.

"Indeed, young friend, what you said makes sense."

"It's a good idea."

The Medicine Elder agreed with Lin Yan's plan and nodded approvingly.

He then looked at the beast fire in Lin Yan's hand and said, "In that case, let's start preparing for the steps before devouring the beast fire."

"Although it's not divine fire, beast fire is not as easy to bear as human fire, so to devour this kind of flame, we also need the assistance of elixirs."

"And also, young friend, this beast fire in your hand is still too weak."

"If you want to devour it to improve the Burning Technique, it's best to refine it into the original fire seed, continuously warm it with your elemental power, and when it reaches a certain level of enhancement, then use elixirs and the Burning Technique to devour it."

After all, the Medicine Elder was still the Medicine Elder. As soon as he heard that Lin Yan planned to devour beast fire, he quickly formulated a comprehensive plan for him.

He also gave Lin Yan the prescription. As long as Lin Yan brought the medicinal materials, the Medicine Elder could directly refine the medicine. But for now, the most important thing was still nurturing the beast fire.

"Okay, let's follow Elder Medicine's plan."

Lin Yan nodded.

The Medicine Elder then placed a hand on Lin Yan's forehead.

Feeling the influx of a large amount of information in his mind, Lin Yan pondered for a moment, then narrowed his eyes and sat cross-legged.

"First, within the vortex, create a small space capable of containing the purple fire."

"When the space is formed, draw out a strand of flame from the purple fire and wrap it with elemental power before inhaling it."

"Finally, completely absorb it."

The Medicine Elder kept reminding Lin Yan on the side, and Lin Yan followed the steps emerging in his mind and the Medicine Elder's guidance.

Soon, the refinement of the original fire seed was completed.

"It's done! This is now my fire."

Lin Yan opened his eyes again, casually manipulating the purple fire, which changed continuously in his hands like a toy.

Now Lin Yan could feel the connection between the purple fire and his bloodline. When controlling the purple fire, he felt more and more at ease.

"Not bad."

The Medicine Elder nodded in satisfaction at seeing this.

But he quickly reminded, "However, your beast fire is still weak and needs to be nurtured with elemental power."

"Otherwise, whether it's for combat or alchemy, it won't be enough."

Lin Yan nodded at the Medicine Elder, then began nurturing the purple fire with the elemental power within his body, following the guidance of the Medicine Elder.

This process was quite lengthy and couldn't be completed quickly in just a day or two.

So Lin Yan stayed in his room, nurturing the fire with his elemental power for a full seven days.

After seven days, Lin Yan summoned the purple fire in the backyard.

The purple fire at this moment was obviously much stronger than before.

Summoned, the purple fire hovered above Lin Yan's palm. Its scorching temperature gave the feeling of a small sun.

Lin Yan clenched his fist, and the purple flame covered his arm. He smashed his hand onto the ground, and the terrifying temperature, along with the immense power, slammed onto the ground.

Suddenly, a violent sound erupted, followed by a conspicuous crack spreading from where Lin Yan's fist hit, spreading outwards for quite some time before finally stopping.

"Such powerful force! With this purple fire, my combat ability has improved again!"

Lin Yan's eyes brightened, unable to help but speak.

"Hehe, young friend, you must look forward to divine fire. If you can obtain divine fire in the future, you will know that compared to divine fire, this beast fire is child's play."

The Medicine Elder smiled and said to Lin Yan.

Then he continued, "But now the power of this purple fire is almost reaching the limit you can control. So I suggest you prepare to devour it using the Burning Technique."

Lin Yan nodded at the Medicine Elder. "Then I'll trouble Elder Medicine."

The Medicine Elder smiled and said, "It's nothing."

Then he directly summoned the medicine cauldron to start refining the medicine.

Speaking of which, the medicinal materials needed this time were quite numerous, and most of them were second-grade medicinal materials.

Lin Yan had asked someone to exchange the reward from the clan competition for money to buy medicine a few days ago. Unexpectedly, after Lin Zhentian knew he needed money, he directly gave him twice the amount and instructed him to ask for more if it wasn't enough.

As a result, after buying the medicinal materials, Lin Yan even had a large sum of money left.

"Let's begin."

The Medicine Elder quickly threw all the medicinal materials into the medicine cauldron.

As a master alchemist, the Medicine Elder found it much easier to refine medicine. To refine several second-grade pills required a large pile of medicinal materials. He casually started refining, and not long after, successfully refined the pills.

Looking at the glossy and enticing pills, the Medicine Elder smiled lightly and handed them to Lin Yan, saying, "Young friend, the medicine is ready, and the fire is nurtured."

"Next, it's your turn to devour the flames."
