Chapter 144 Powder Keg

Inner courtyard, a quiet courtyard.

The Dean of the Outer Court, Hu Qian, was drinking tea with the Inner Court Great Elder, Su Qian. Seeing the calm expression of the old man in front of him, he couldn't help but ask, "You just threw him in the Inner Court like that? In fact, I think this kid is worth training. He is a Dou Wang who is less than 18 years old, and he is also a fifth-grade alchemist. He will definitely be a strong man in the future."

"But his identity and background are very complicated. It's not a good thing for Canaan College to be too deeply involved with him. I think it's good now."

Su Qian took a sip of the fragrant tea, lowered his eyes slightly, and spoke slowly with a serious tone.

The more he understood those tribes, the more he could discover their arrogance and dominance. The arrogance that was in their bones could never be faked. For example, this kid Yao Yan, although it was only their first meeting, and the other party seemed to be very "down and out", wandering here, but even when facing him, a Dou Zong powerhouse, the other party did not show the slightest awe.

That indifference and calmness seemed to speak of one's own confidence.

If it were an ordinary young man, would he be so calm and indifferent when meeting a true Dou Zong strongman? !
"Not refusing, not having in-depth communication... means you don't have to take responsibility. You old thing are really cunning. This way you don't offend either side, but it seems that you can't make friends with this little monster." Hu Qian said with some regret. He was still quite optimistic about Yao Yan because the other party's talent was so terrifying and unique in his life.

"He is already a five-star Dou Wang. Canaan Academy can no longer provide him with much help..."

Su Qian said softly, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes. Over the years, he had sent away countless talented people. Every gifted person, after reaching the Dou Wang level, would choose to leave Canaan Academy and venture into the outside world. Some even went directly to Zhongzhou.

Some of them will make a name for themselves in Zhongzhou, while others will disappear without a trace.

Generation after generation...

"makes sense."

Hu Qian was stunned when he heard this, and then he sighed softly.

The students trained at Canaan Academy all start as fighters, and it takes about three to five years to train the students to become great fighters. Those with exceptional talents can go to the inner courtyard for in-depth study and have the qualifications to enter the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, so that they can continue to maintain a fast training speed.

However, this training speed will decrease a lot after reaching the Dou Wang level.

Whether it is the energy of heaven and earth or the resources for cultivation, Canaan Academy can hardly provide enough attraction for cultivators above the Dou Wang level, and naturally cannot keep them. Yao Yan, who came to the door on his own initiative, is the first in so many years.

Su Qian pondered for a moment, looked at Hu Qian, and said, "If you hadn't said that he possessed the Azure Lotus Earth Heart Fire, I would have even suspected that he entered Canaan College for the Fallen Heart Flame."

After all, he was still somewhat wary of Yao Yan, the outsider.

Hearing this, Hu Qian couldn't help but laugh and said, "You're worrying too much. Not to mention that he doesn't have this idea, even if he does, it's useless. That place has a seal left by the dean. With that kid's strength, it's impossible to break it."

The dean is a Dou Zun-level warrior. It is extremely difficult for a Dou Wang to even get close to the powerful space seal, let alone break it.

Su Qian nodded, and then stopped dwelling on this issue. Whether Yao Yan had a problem or not would be known after getting to know him for a while. No one could hide for a lifetime. If he remained so law-abiding, Canaan Academy would not mind having another talented and brilliant mentor.

"By the way, where did the little girl you brought back some time ago go?" Hu Qian suddenly asked with some confusion.

Hearing his old friend's question, Su Qian suddenly showed a heartbroken expression, and said helplessly: "He went to the mountain area."

"do not worry?!"

Hu Qian was stunned when he heard this and said with some surprise, because when he saw the little girl, she looked only five or six years old, and at first glance she was a baby monster. How could the old man Su Qian dare to let her go to the mountains full of monsters alone?

Su Qian smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know what kind of monster the little girl is. Her body is incredibly strong. Ordinary third- and fourth-level monsters are no match for her. She even dares to touch fifth-level monsters. I was worried about her before, but later I didn't pay much attention to her... I can't control her because her appetite is too big."

There was one thing he didn't say, which was that if he continued to keep the child, he most likely wouldn't be able to afford it.

Those rare treasures that humans would easily explode if eaten, but the little girl ate them like candy beans. Her mouth was like a bottomless pit that accepted everything. It was as if she was a starving ghost reincarnated. No one knew how many years she had been hungry.

"So perverted?!"

Hu Qian was a little surprised when he heard this. Warcraft is different from humans. Humans need to practice, while Warcraft mostly rely on blood inheritance or blood evolution. Generally, the offspring of Warcraft with strong blood can show that strong blood talent from an early age, such as strength, defense, recovery, etc. These are the most basic measurement standards.

"Her true form is very special." Su Qian nodded, his face becoming more serious. "I even suspect that her parents are eighth-level magical beasts... I didn't keep her in the inner courtyard because of this. In addition, I also discovered that she can use the power of space, which may be related to her racial talent."

The power of space? !
Hu Qian was shocked because the power of space is a power that only Dou Zong or above or seventh-level Warcraft can use. There seem to be not many races among Warcraft that are good at using the power of space, and he had never heard of that a cub could do it.

"This is a treasure!" Hu Qian couldn't help but laugh.

"Bao is indeed a treasure...but he eats too much."

Su Qian said with a bit of a smile, he didn't know whether to be happy or cry. For a gifted Warcraft cub to grow up, it needed a huge amount of resources. He could hardly afford to raise it after several months, which was why he threw it into the mountains.

"Stop crying poor, just treat me as your adopted daughter. I have to go back to see my granddaughter. I'm leaving now~"

Hu Qian smiled, stood up and said goodbye, then left with a proud step under Su Qian's gaze.

"..."

Su Qian was silent after hearing this sentence. After a moment, he also showed some melancholy, thinking about the past years that had passed. Who hasn't been young... Who hasn't fallen in love with a woman when they were young...

……

At the same time, Xiong Zhuang had been completely subdued by Yao Yanzhi. Facing a teacher whose strength far exceeded his own, he was still relatively sensible.

As the saying goes, he who knows the times is a hero!

It is not shameful to admit defeat when you cannot win. Xiong Zhuang was obviously the best among them. Under the dull gaze of the crowd, he bowed and nodded to Yao Yan, introducing the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower to the new teacher, saying, "Teacher, this is your first time here. You must be careful later, because once you enter, an invisible flame will appear in your body. It will help us refine our fighting spirit and increase our training speed, but it may be a little painful the first time."

Not a bad heart~
After hearing this, Yao Yan had some understanding of Xiong Zhuang's character. He knew that Xiong Zhuang was giving him a kind reminder because it was very easy to get burned when entering the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower for the first time. The Fallen Heart Flame was not a good thing. Even if it was just a little bit of heart fire, it was enough to burn a great Dou Master into serious injuries in an instant. If one was not careful, the Dou Ling would also suffer a great loss.

"Thank you for reminding."

Yao Yan smiled, then walked into the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower with the other party.

Xiong Zhuang smiled naively and followed behind him obediently. He certainly didn't have good intentions. It was simply because Yao Yan was too strong. Even if he didn't remind him, nothing serious would probably happen. On the contrary, once the other party suffered a loss in the tower and started to cause trouble for him, that would be terrible.

Smart people know how to solve this problem.

At this time, Yao Yan had already walked in. As the light in front of him dimmed, his feet stepped on the solid stone surface. At the same time, a burning feeling rose from the bottom of his heart. The warm feeling instantly ignited the fighting spirit in his body. Invisible flames appeared out of thin air on his limbs, emitting unparalleled heat, causing his body to be covered with white mist.

Xiong Zhuang on the side did the same, but he temporarily suppressed it with his fighting spirit and did not start practicing directly. At the same time, he turned to look at Yao Yan, but found that the strange phenomenon around Yao Yan had disappeared at some point, and at the same time, a wisp of invisible flame appeared in his palm, and that posture seemed to have drawn out the invisible flame in his body.

"?!"

Xiong Zhuang was a little confused. This scene was beyond his understanding. He had seen people resisting with fighting spirit, and had seen people practicing cross-legged directly, but he had never seen anyone who could extract it from the body. How strong was this teacher in front of him? !

It can't be Dou Wang or Dou Huang, it can't be Dou Zong!
This is too scary!
“Interesting~”

Yao Yan did not resist. He felt the heart fire constantly emerging in his body and felt it with great interest. He even directly used the Burning Technique to refine it. You should know that he has already merged with the Green Lotus Heart Fire. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a human-shaped strange fire. This kind of heart fire is completely the nourishment for his cultivation.

Unlike other people who use the heart fire to practice, he completely regards the heart fire as nourishment for his practice and swallows up all the energy of this heart fire.

"Teacher...what is your strength?"

Xiong Zhuang licked his face and asked curiously.

"Five-star Fighting King."

Yao Yan replied and dispersed the heart fire in the palm of his hand. This wisp of heart fire was too scarce and could not bring him enough help at all. Moreover, the base amount of fighting spirit in his body was too large. He didn't know how long it would take to temper the heart fire with such a strong momentum.

He couldn't help but look at Xiong Zhuang and said, "There should be a secret training room here, right?"

"Of course, teacher, this way please!"

Xiong Zhuang's attitude was even more humble at this moment. He respectfully led Yao Yan towards the training room No. 12. That was where he practiced daily and it was also the result of his years of hard work. Although he only had it after he had outlasted the previous senior, it also showed his talent.

There are nearly a hundred training rooms on the first floor of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, which are divided into low-level training rooms and high-level training rooms. The training effects of the two are different, and there are certain requirements for strength. Similarly, the number of fire energy points required is also different.

But soon, Yao Yan stopped because the two of them had reached the center of the first floor.

At this moment, there is a bottomless black hole in the center, like an abyss, which almost runs through the entire Tianfen Refining Qi Tower. If it were not for the cover of the tower spire, it might be visible from the sky.

If you sense it carefully, you can feel that the temperature here is much hotter than other places. That feeling... is as if there is something here that is constantly emitting heat.

“Falling Heart Flame…”

Yao Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and a ray of strange green flame appeared deep in his eyes. As his eyes were covered by the strange fire, an invisible soul force explored into the depths of the black hole. He planned to find out the bottom of the Fallen Heart Flame today to see how far it had grown.

However, Yao Yan soon discovered that he did not seem to need to spy on anything, because the Fallen Heart Flame had been crawling around the black hole, and its body continued to emit a temperature that was enough to distort space and burn the surrounding space seals.

The space seal left by the Mangtian Ruler is indeed terrifying, but it cannot withstand the constant burning of a strange fire. It may not feel anything in a year or two, but after decades or even hundreds of years... the so-called space seal has been burned out by a gap.

"Sigh~"

As if it had sensed the spying, the invisible fire python lying on the space seal opened its wild eyes and let out a roar. At the same time, the temperature around it rose rapidly. Even Yao Yan's spiritual soul power was baked into nothingness and it was unable to get forward at all.

It is worthy of being called the Fallen Heart Flame... Yao Yan exclaimed in his heart. In terms of dealing with soul power alone, the Fallen Heart Flame is undoubtedly superior to the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire.

"Do you want to be free?"

Yao Yan looked at the Fallen Heart Flame and transmitted his voice with his soul power.

However, he obviously overestimated the intelligence of the Fallen Heart Flame. This thing was not capable of thinking at all. All it had was a violent desire for destruction. Unlike Ling'er's, this aura of destruction was extremely pure. After even sensing Yao Yan's existence, it flew directly towards Yao Yan's soul power.

Yao Yan was quite helpless about this, so he condensed his soul power into a palm print and slammed it down fiercely.

"hiss!"

The invisible fire python transformed from the Fallen Heart Flame let out a roar and was slammed away heavily, unable to withstand Yao Yan's powerful soul power.

It's only at the level of a seven or eight star Dou Huang... Yao Yan instantly judged the strength of the Fallen Heart Flame's body. If it didn't take advantage of the venue, the combat power of this thing could at most compete with a Dou Huang at the peak level. However, the strange fire is a rare thing nurtured by heaven and earth after all, especially in the place where it was nurtured. Its combat power is not just as simple as its body.

The heart fire that fills the entire Tianfen Refining Qi Tower is its help.

in other words.

The entire Tianfen Refining Gas Tower is a powder keg. The Fallen Heart Flame continues to accumulate strength until it explodes the powder keg!
