129. Repetition of Chapter 10: Jia Ma
"Xiao Yan, I'm so bored!"
"If you're bored, just focus on your cultivation!" Xiao Yan said to Zi Yan, who was looking bored to the side.
"It's all that old man's fault! Ever since you met him, you've been obsessed, either cultivating or refining pills! Xun'er's not around either, it's so boring!"
Xiao Yan, who was refining medicine in front of the alchemy furnace, smiled slightly upon hearing this. The old fellow that Zi Yan mentioned was naturally the Emperor's thought of the Void Heaven Emperor.
The reason why the Void Emperor was called the Void Emperor was because he had intricate connections with the Ancient Void Dragon Clan before he became emperor, so he eventually used the character "Void" to refer to himself. However, after Emperor Nian saw Zi Yan, he put her into a deep sleep and never woke her up again.
Di Nian explained that everything most suitable within the Myriad Beasts Space had already been given to Zi Yan, and she had her own path to walk. Even the Void Heaven Emperor Di Nian was not in a position to interfere too much.
Yao Lao also placed all the materials and jade slips related to alchemy in his ring to prevent Xiao Yan from going astray on his alchemy journey.
However, when Yao Lao wanted to hand over the Bone Spirit Cold Flame to him, Di Nian refused, saying that he did not yet have the strength to absorb so many different flames at the same time.
Zi Yan awoke a day after leaving the core of the Beast Space, and then Xiao Yan and Zi Yan embarked on their journey home again.
Xiao Yan still remembered that there was a fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame map at Hai Bodong's place. He had previously said that he would refine the Calamity-Breaking Pill for it, but after subduing the Red Lotus Karmic Flame, Xiao Yan was in a hurry to keep the three-year agreement. After that, he was in a hurry to go to Canaan to pick up Xiao Xun'er, and then went to the Heavenly Serpent Mansion to look for Qing Lin.
In the Myriad Beasts Space, the Northwest Region also had an extremely complex history. Two years passed quietly, and now Xiao Yan finally had time to refine pills for Hai Bodong.
At the same time, in order to revive Yao Lao as soon as possible and repair the Myriad Beasts Space, Xiao Yan also needs to have more powerful strength. The Pure Lotus Demon Flame is a great opportunity. As long as there is even the slightest chance, Xiao Yan will not let it slip away from his sight.
In the months since returning to the Jia Ma Empire, Xiao Yan has been pleasantly surprised to find that his strength has advanced to the level of an eight-star Dou Huang after a series of battles, and his foundation is not unstable at all.
With Mingmei's help, the Crimson Lotus Karmic Flame merged with his own, allowing him to refine medicine with almost complete freedom. Although he hadn't specifically cultivated his soul power, under the continuous effect of the Soul Transference Technique, Xiao Yan still felt his soul power becoming increasingly concentrated.
With the combined effect of many factors, Xiao Yan naturally crossed the threshold of a fifth-grade alchemist and became a sixth-grade alchemy master!
Or perhaps he possesses the alchemist's most precious treasure—a strange fire!
Xiao Yan already had considerable confidence in refining a sixth-grade pill, but the raw materials for the Breaking Calamity Pill were rather obscure. One of them, "Sand Mandala," had only grown in the Tagor Desert for generations, and even Xiao Yan had not found it for sale in the Northwest Region.
However, Xiao Yan didn't take it to heart. After all, with his and Zi Yan's current strength, they could completely roam freely in the Jia Ma Empire, and no one could affect them. Besides, they were only there to obtain a medicinal herb.
As his thoughts raced, a medicinal fragrance wafted from the alchemy furnace, and Xiao Yan caught three round, purple pills in his hand.
For Xiao Yan at this time, refining such a low-grade pill among the fifth grade pills naturally did not require much effort.
After tossing all three pills to Zi Yan, Zi Yan, who had been muttering to herself, finally smiled at Xiao Yan.
"Xiao Yan, you're actually a really good person!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan rolled his eyes at Zi Yan, "Have you learned to conceal your aura? The magical beasts we've encountered along the way either freeze in fear or immediately dig up some herbs and run away as soon as they sense your presence. We haven't gained much from this trip!"
Hearing this, Zi Yan's little face showed a hint of grievance: "Who knew? That old guy didn't tell me that magical beasts these days are so afraid of my aura!"
"And why are you being so fierce? Next time you see Xun'er, you must tell her about it!"
Xiao Yan could only shake his head helplessly. He wasn't that concerned about the medicinal herbs. Thanks to Yang Yue's replenishment, he now had countless good things in his storage ring.
He just needs some strong opponents to spar with, and the magical beasts in the mountains and fields are naturally the best opponents. However, he hasn't encountered any ideal opponents recently. Any magical beast that senses Zi Yan's aura will run away immediately.
Since his strength and Zi Yan's strength were similar, if they were to fight freely, no one would be able to clean up the mess. Therefore, it was often inconvenient to use Zi Yan as a sparring partner.
Xiao Yan could only take out three scrolls from his storage ring and begin to read them. These three scrolls were naturally the three scrolls of fighting techniques that Wan Baishan of the Heroes Alliance had taken out that day in order to ease tensions between the two sides.
Two of the three volumes of fighting techniques are of low-level Earth Rank, and one is of mid-level Earth Rank. What's even more remarkable is that these three volumes of fighting techniques are a set. When Xiao Yan received them, he couldn't help but marvel at Wan Baishan's generosity.
Xiao Yan slowly unrolled the scroll, and one after another, illusory characters flew out from the scroll, the most eye-catching of which were four large characters with a flamboyant and elegant style.
The four large characters "Heavenly Desolate Ruler Technique" were extremely eye-catching, and one could feel a trace of ancient aura from them. None of these ruler techniques were weaker than Xiao Yan's Flame Dividing Wave Ruler.
The Heavenly Ruler comes in three forms.
The Heavenly Ruler, domineering!
The Heavenly Ruler, shaking the world!
Heavenly Ruler, Shattered Abyss!
When all three moves are unleashed together, it becomes the final move of the Heavenly Desolation Ruler: Reign of the Sovereign!
Upon seeing this scroll, Xiao Yan was also shocked by the name. It was too arrogant, like the name of an ignorant person who didn't know the immensity of the world.
However, after studying the scroll in detail, Xiao Yan realized that it was created by the monarch of an empire on the continent, and that it was both a technique and a dream!
Although the name sounds a bit too grandiose, and it has the air of "the rule will never disappear even after the end of time," it is indeed the fighting technique that Xiao Yan needs right now.
This set of fighting techniques consists of powerful and domineering moves, and the combined three techniques of "Reign of Kings" have the potential to rival even Heaven-rank fighting techniques.
Xiao Yan only half believed these words, after all, the creator did not want his fighting technique to be the best in the world, so some excessive praise was normal.
Of course, during the time he flew back to the Jia Ma Empire, Xiao Yan had already mastered the first two moves of this fighting technique, so he was itching to try it out, but he just didn't have a suitable opponent.
Suddenly, Zi Yan, standing atop the dragon-armored vulture, shouted, "Xiao Yan, the Jia Ma Empire should be just ahead!"
Xiao Yan glanced at the package and felt a warmth in his heart, after all, he was back.
But the next moment, he frowned: "Something's not right!"
