"Yes, this fire is called Eight Desolations Destruction Flame, and it ranks sixth on the list of exotic fires!" Xiao Yun nodded and answered Tang Zhen's question. He waved his hand again, and the pitch-black flame was taken back into his body.
"The sixth-ranked Eight Desolations Destruction Flame!" Hearing Xiao Yun's words, Tang Zhen's heart twitched again. About twenty years old, an eighth-grade medicine master, a semi-saint-level exotic fire, and a fighting master, is this the talent of the strongest that the ancestor said? Is
this the posture of a fighting emperor?
Although his exotic fire ranks twelfth, it seems that the ranking is only twice that of the Eight Desolations Destruction Flame, but this is not a gap that can be made up by another Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire. The ranking gap on the exotic fire list is small, but each one is very different, especially in the top ten.
"Well, when people get old, they just like to reminisce about the past." Tang Zhen's mention of Tang Huo'er might have touched the old man's sore spot, and he skipped the discussion of Xiao Yun's talent and started talking.
"Xiao Yun, in the past your ancestor, Senior Xiao Xuan, once gifted our Fen Yan Valley a self-created martial arts method named the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire. Now it has become a secret of our Fen Yan Valley."
"As a member of the Xiao clan, my Fen Yan Valley should return the favor. Let's put it this way, let Tang Zhen take you to the treasure house of my Fen Yan Valley, and you can learn any martial arts and fighting skills. Just don't teach them to others in the future."
"Thank you for your kindness, old ancestor. However, I'd better get rid of the hidden dangers in your body first, and then choose the martial arts and fighting skills."
Hearing the promise of Old Ancestor Huoyun, Xiao Yun was overjoyed. Originally, he revealed his identity as a member of the Xiao clan just to obtain a heavenly martial arts method, but now it seems that there is not just one, but many!
In the Burning Flame Valley, apart from the Heavenly Grade Techniques, the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire was what caught Xiao Yun's eye. Although he did not have the three kinds of exotic fire to improve his strength, the real purpose of this technique was to cultivate the Xiao family crest.
"Okay, then Xiao Zhen, you take Xiao Yun to rest first, and we will refine the elixir tomorrow!" Ancestor Huoyun waved his hand and sat back on the stone chair.
"Yes! Ancestor." Tang Zhen and Xiao Yun both bowed and said goodbye, then returned the same way and left the quiet valley.
Ancestor Huoyun just sat on the stone chair and watched the two of them leave quietly.
"Swoosh!"
Not long after Tang Zhen and Xiao Yun left, a ray of fire suddenly appeared on the ground. The next moment, it turned into Tang Zhen's appearance, but it didn't look real. Instead, it had a sense of illusion.
"Ancestor."
"Well, Xiao Zhen, you are getting more and more proficient in using this fire phantom body." Ancestor Huoyun was not surprised by Tang Zhen's sudden appearance, and still sat upright on the stone chair.
"Ancestor, do we really have to open up the entire treasure house to Master Xiao? There are heavenly-level beings in there!"
Tang Zhen said with a frown. Heavenly-level martial arts and fighting skills are regarded as heirlooms by any force. They are usually not shown to outsiders, let alone taught.
"Of course, those who aspire to do great things do not care about small gains!" Ancestor Huoyun knocked on Tang Zhen's head, causing the latter to be dissatisfied.
"If it were not impossible, I would even like to give him the entire Fen Yan Valley and let him be the next valley master.
This kind of proud son of heaven, if he does not fall in the future, will surely make the name of the Xiao clan resound throughout the entire continent like his ancestor Xiao Xuan."
"And we in Fen Yan Valley cannot produce such a monster, so we can only make friends with him. Merely heavenly martial arts and fighting skills are nothing. Now that he needs it, we give it to him, and that's considered a friendship.
A person like him will not lack heavenly martial arts, and now that the opportunity has been given to Fen Yan Valley, we must seize it!"
"Alright." Tang Zhen nodded helplessly. Since his ancestor was determined to give it, he had no choice but to follow the latter's wishes.
"I'm afraid of those pedantic guys in the Council of Elders. Although they can't make a decision, they will definitely scold me behind my back again."
Although Fenyan Valley is a family power, it is not something that Tang Zhen can decide alone. Even he only learned about the relationship between the Xiao family and Fenyan Valley today, not to mention the group of elders.
The elders don't know the existence of Patriarch Huoyun, and they don't know Xiao Yun's life experience. They will definitely not agree to let him enter the treasure house of Fenyan Valley and choose whatever he wants just by refining a pill.
"It doesn't matter. I will reveal some of the situation to Tang Huo at that time. With him helping you, the Council of Elders will have nothing to say."
Tang Huo is the great elder of Fenyan Valley. He is also the only two Douzun strongmen in the open. He is also a direct descendant of the Tang family. In the valley, his right to speak is not weaker than Tang Zhen.
"That's good, I don't have to worry about those old-fashioned guys nagging me all day."
...
The next day, in the room that Fenyan Valley arranged for Xiao Yun.
The young man sat cross-legged on the bed, his chest rising and falling slowly, and every breath he took could cause a whistling sound. In the room, the energy of heaven and earth flowed freely.
"Huh!" Xiao Yun's eyes opened, and a brilliant lightning flashed in them. After a night's rest, the fighting spirit he had consumed in the space channel had been completely restored.
And it also made his cultivation level improve a lot again. Given some time, he would be able to naturally break through to the five-star fighting master realm.
"Heavenly-level techniques, with it, I don't have to worry about the loss of fighting spirit anymore."
Heavenly-level techniques, even quasi-heavenly-level techniques, have effects that are vastly different from earthly-level techniques.
When practicing the former, not only will the Dou Qi stored in the body become more, but the recovery and absorption speed will also be far beyond the earth-level skills.
It is said that once the real heaven-level skills are performed, they can immediately absorb all the energy within a radius of 100 meters and transform it into Dou Qi for their own use. Only in this way can Dou Sheng strongmen fight at will. Unless the gap between the two sides is too large, it will be difficult to determine the winner.
After a moment of emotion, Xiao Yun got up from the bed. As long as he finished refining the Nine-Star Yin Yang Pill, he could also practice this kind of skills, and maybe he could break through the Five-Star Dou Zun in one fell swoop.
"Squeak!"
As soon as he pushed the door open, Xiao Yun saw Tang Zhen standing not far away and said with a smile: "Master Tang, you didn't wait outside all night, did you?"
"Haha, no, I just got up early." Hearing Xiao Yun's voice, Tang Zhen waved his hand and walked in front of the former, smiling and saying: "Master Xiao, have you rested well?"
In fact, he waited outside all night. After all, it was related to the health of his ancestor, so he couldn't help but be anxious.
However, with his cultivation as a Dou Zun strongman, let alone one night, even ten days or half a month would not have any effect.
"Have you had a good rest, Valley Master Tang, have you prepared all the medicinal materials for the Nine Star Yin Yang Pill?"
"They are ready. Here is the recipe. There are four copies of the medicinal materials in the ring." After receiving Xiao Yun's affirmation, Tang Zhen quickly took out a scroll and a ring from his arms and handed them to him.
"Four copies?" Xiao Yun took the things and said with some doubt: "Valley Master Tang, three copies are enough."
"Haha, this extra copy was bought by someone I sent to Tianhuang City yesterday. One more copy means more assurance. But don't worry, no matter how much you have left, according to the rules of the pharmacist, it will all belong to you."
"Okay then." Since others said so, he couldn't say anything. He put the recipe into the ring and then put it on his finger.
According to the rules of the pharmacist, the recipe for the eighth-grade pill has also belonged to him.
"Master Xiao, when you refine medicine later, will you need to use this cauldron?" After seeing Xiao Yun accept the item, Tang Zhen waved his hand again, and a huge medicine cauldron appeared in the air.
This cauldron was fiery red in color, and its appearance was similar to the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron. The only difference was that the former had a volcanic eruption pattern engraved on the wall, while the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron had a pattern of ten thousand beasts galloping.
"Mountain Melting Cauldron? This is a good thing on the Heavenly Cauldron List." As a master of refining medicine, Xiao Yun could tell the origin of this cauldron at a glance.
"Yes, this cauldron is the Mountain Melting Cauldron! Master Xiao, the Mountain Melting Cauldron is also of great help in refining the eighth-grade elixir. How about you..."
"No need." Xiao Yun waved his hand and said with a smile: "Although the Mountain Melting Cauldron is good, it is my first time using it, so it is inevitable that I am not very skilled. Besides, I also have the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron, so the difference is not much." The
function of the Mountain Melting Cauldron is to increase the intensity of the flame, and at the same time it can help the alchemist to better control the flame.
His Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron is slightly inferior, strictly speaking, but in reality, this difference can be ignored.
Speaking of the Mountain Melting Cauldron, Xiao Yun suddenly remembered that the master of the Burning Flame Valley in front of him was a heavy alchemy enthusiast. Although he was a pure fire attribute and was not suitable for alchemy, he was forced to indulge in it. Relying on the Nine Dragon Thunder Fire, he really made some low-level pills.
Will this old man ask him to refine the medicinal materials later? The most important difference between the eighth-grade and seventh-grade elixirs is that when the former medicinal materials are tempered in the flames, they will be contaminated with a trace of spiritual energy by the spirit realm soul of the alchemist.
And this trace of spiritual energy is the key to the elixir's breakthrough to the eighth grade. Without this trace of spiritual energy, even the seventh-grade alchemist at the peak cannot refine an eighth-grade elixir.
Fortunately, Tang Zhen himself still had some AC knowledge. After recommending the medicine cauldron, he didn't say anything else and took Xiao Yun directly to the location of the alchemy.
...
This is a very large square. The square is all fiery red and is built of volcanic rocks. In the center of the square, there is a stone platform about ten feet high.
At this moment, many disciples and elders of the Burning Flame Valley have stood around the square. They looked around vigilantly. They were obviously the people sent by Tang Zhen to guard the stone platform.
"Swish!"
Suddenly, the sound of breaking wind broke the quiet atmosphere in the square, and then two figures flashed from a distance and landed lightly on the stone platform.
In the vigilant eyes of the surrounding elders and disciples, the figures were revealed. It was Tang Zhen and Xiao Yun.
Seeing Tang Zhen, the crowd relaxed immediately, but still did not dare to speak, because they knew that an eighth-grade medicine master would come here to refine pills today.
Naturally, they did not dare to speak casually, for fear of disturbing Xiao Yun's refining process.
