In the secret room.

Yao Yan sat cross-legged on a cushion with his hands forming seals. His body was wrapped in emerald green flames. The energy of heaven and earth gathered towards him at a speed visible to the naked eye. Under the tempering of the fusion of strange fire, it turned into pure fighting spirit and merged into his limbs and bones. At the same time, the demonic poison spots in his body were slowly decomposed under the burning of the fusion of strange fire, and turned into the purest energy and merged into the fighting spirit, making his aura rapidly increase at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Wow~"

Along with the sound of rolling waves, a blue flame floated out from between his eyebrows. As soon as it appeared, it was controlled by an invisible force and turned into a blue fire lotus, slowly spinning like a fine work of handicraft.

"Hu~" Following a breath of foul air, Yao Yan slowly opened his eyes and looked at the Sea Heart Flame spinning in front of him.

This strange fire that he had taken from Han Feng had already been initially refined before he devoured the Falling Heart Flame. However, he had not yet taken the final step of using the Burning Technique to devour it and transform everything in it into his own original power.

Because Yao Yan's strength has grown so fast in the past year.

If he swallows the Sea Heart Flame again, the demonic poison spots in his body will definitely be further decomposed by the power of the three strange fires. The huge amount of energy will directly increase his strength to the level of a seven or eight star Dou Huang, and he will not be able to suppress it even if he wants to.

Simply improving the strength of Dou Qi is meaningless, especially for the Dou Huang level. The gap between a four-star Dou Huang and an eight-star Dou Huang is not too big. It is nothing more than using fighting skills a few more times. Only after entering the Dou Zong level will the gap continue to widen.

Before that, it is more important to control every bit of your power.

Especially for alchemists, if they cannot perfectly control their own fighting spirit, how can they refine high-quality pills?

After staring at the Sea Heart Flame for a while.

A dark white flame floated out from between Yao Yan's eyebrows again. Compared with the Sea Heart Flame, the Bone Spirit Cold Fire was obviously of a higher rank. Moreover, it had followed Yao Lao for hundreds of years and the power it contained was even more terrifying. However, because Yao Lao had voluntarily given up and cooperated, he had now perfectly inherited it and imprinted his own soul mark in it.

"In one or two years at most, I should be able to break through to the Dou Zong level..." Yao Yan muttered to himself as he looked at the two strange fires in front of him.

As the words fell, the emerald green flames lingering on the surface of his body slowly shrank and extinguished. A moment later, an invisible flame with a milky white halo and a green flame floated out of his body. Four different colored fires were clearly distinguished in front of him.

At the same time, there was a faint, almost imperceptible wisp of golden flame swaying on one side, as if it could go out at any time, curled up in the corner.

This fire is exactly the first kind of fire that Yao Yan obtained, the seventh-level beast fire - Phantom Gold Fire.

As Yao Yan continued to devour the strange fire, the existence of the Phantom Gold Fire could almost no longer be found, and the origin of the fire contained in it was assimilated by the strange fire. Fortunately, the flames that Yao Yan devoured with the Burning Decision could all be evolved through his self-generated fighting spirit.

He also discovered this after he swallowed the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire.

"Om~"

Yao Yan's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, and a powerful soul force instantly surged out from his brows, and then poured into the five flames. As he formed seals with his hands, he issued a command: "Five-wheel Fire Method, Wolf Spirit Condensation!"

As his words fell, the shape of Phantom Golden Fire instantly solidified, and under Yao Yan's control, it quickly transformed into a wolf-shaped fire spirit, howling towards the sky.

"Leopard spirit, condense!"

"Lion spirit, condense!"

"Tiger Spirit, condense!"

Condensing four kinds of fire spirits in one breath, even if they are only the size of a chicken, the consumption of soul power has reached a terrifying level. The Five-Wheeled Fire Method can increase the power by the amount of fighting spirit infused, and can condense five kinds of fire spirits, but it tests the soul power of the person performing the method.

If Yao Yan's soul power had not reached the peak of the spiritual realm, he would not dare to play like this.

"Jiaolong spirit, come out!!" Yao Yan gritted his teeth and directly transformed the bone spirit cold fire into a fire spirit in the shape of a dragon.

At this moment, beads of sweat appeared on Yao Yan's forehead and his soul felt a little tingling, which was a sign of excessive consumption of soul power.

Fortunately, his soul power is enough for him to perform this fighting skill that is comparable to the heavenly level fighting skill. Even if it is achieved with the help of formations and the power of four kinds of strange fire, any fighting skill that is related to the heavenly level, each one has a terrifying power like burning the sky and boiling the sea, which is enough to increase personal strength a hundred or a thousand times!
This is also the charm of fighting skills!
Under the circumstances of equal cultivation, whoever possesses more powerful fighting skills will undoubtedly win in the end.

"Five-wheel Fire Method, gather!!"

Yao Yan took a pill to nourish the soul, and after adjusting for a moment, he controlled the five mini fire spirits in front of him to form a formation. He had already completed the most difficult step, and the formation became extremely light. As the five fire spirits intertwined with each other, a terrifying aura of energy began to gather. The power contained in the five flames was intertwining in an extremely complex pattern, superimposing their own power on each other, absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, and causing the power of the formation to soar rapidly at a terrifying speed!
At this moment, Yao Yan clearly felt that the Dou Qi in his body was being consumed at a terrifying speed. In just a dozen breaths, more than 30% of the Dou Qi in his body was consumed. This forced him to disperse the formation because the speed at which the Dou Qi was consumed was still accelerating.

With his strength as a four-star Dou Huang, he couldn't even sustain this fighting skill for more than thirty breaths.

If you are fighting against someone, as long as the other party is not stupid, he will not give you the opportunity to condense the formation. Unless the other party is also condensing a big move and wants to go all out with you, that's another matter.

"...Your strength must at least reach the Dou Zong level before you can barely perform this fighting skill." Yao Yan controlled the five fire spirits to dissipate, and suddenly felt his soul relax. He immediately understood the prerequisites of this fighting skill.

If the soul force does not reach the spiritual realm, it is impossible to condense the five fire spirits.

If the fighting spirit does not reach the level of Dou Zong, it is impossible to maximize the power of the five fire spirits, not to mention the fighting spirit consumed in the later stage of condensing the formation. Even if the power of fighting skills can be amplified by the energy of heaven and earth, if one's own fighting spirit is too weak, even the prerequisites cannot be met.

It's like a Barrett rifle. Everyone knows it's very powerful, but if you can't withstand its recoil, you won't be able to defeat the enemy and you will be seriously injured.

The same reason.

The more powerful the fighting skills, the more difficult it is to practice, and the requirements for displaying them are extremely demanding.

Only those at the Dou Zun level are qualified to practice true heaven-level fighting skills. The Five-Wheeled Fire Technique relies on the power of five kinds of strange fire, plus the blessing of the formation, to be comparable to a heaven-level fighting skill. But in this world, apart from those who practice the Burning Decree, who else can perform this fighting skill perfectly?

Just like the Six Meridians Divine Sword, if one person practices one, he will never be able to reach the power of all six meridians at the same time!
After figuring this out, Yao Yan no longer tried the Five-Wheel Fire Separation Method, and took the four kinds of fire into his body. As the Burning Decision Fighting Qi circulated, the Fallen Heart Flame and the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire once again merged into a turquoise flame, flowing around his body. As for the Sea Heart Flame and the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, they floated into his soul, helping him to warm his soul, absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and prepare for entering the Heaven Realm in the future. After regulating his breath for a while.

Yao Yan raised his hand and took out the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron and a large amount of medicinal materials, and began to frequently refine pills. For a pharmacist, refining pills is the best training process, which can sort out every bit of one's own strength. Similarly, fighting spirit will continue to increase between consumption and recovery.

……

Over the next half month, strange phenomena kept appearing in the sky above Black Seal City. Either pillars of light shot up into the sky or dark thunderclouds covered the sky. For a time, it attracted countless powerful people from the Black Horn Region to watch. At the same time, Yuan Yi also took the opportunity to tell them about the bounty offered by Yao Yan.

The bounty offered to the Dou Huang and Dou Wang of the Demon Flame Valley scared many people... But money can make people excited, and facing the Huangji Pill and the Pozong Pill, how many Dou Huangs can really withstand it?

The strength of the Seven-Star Dou Zong of the Earth Demon Old Ghost is indeed enough to scare away many people, but the Demon Flame Valley is too big and powerful for the Earth Demon Old Ghost to take care of everyone. Many branches need strong people to be in charge, and these are naturally targeted by the strong people in the Black Horn Region.

One Dou Huang is equal to one Huangji Pill!

Three Dou Huangs mean a sect-breaking pill!

Ten Dou Wangs are equal to one Huangji Pill!

One hundred Dou Wangs are equal to one Po Zong Dan!

After the price was put forward, coupled with the alchemy phenomena that kept appearing in the sky above Black Seal City, someone finally couldn't hold back any longer and started to take action. And this guy actually succeeded. Together with a few old friends, he directly destroyed a branch of the Demon Flame Valley and successfully exchanged for two Imperial Pills!

The moment this news was released, the entire Black Horn Region began to be in turmoil, and countless people set their sights on the Demon Flame Valley.

If you can’t defeat the old demon, can’t you bully the forces controlled by the Demon Flame Valley?
At worst, they could just change their identities and hide somewhere else for ten or eight years. How could the Demon Flame Valley keep an eye on them?

After all.

Ever since the old demon was severely damaged by the old monster from Canaan Academy, his prestige has been far less than before. The legend is a legend because it is scary enough, but when the legend is killed in seconds, the so-called legend becomes a joke.

Of course, the most important thing is interest.

The strong men in the Black Horn Region are not easy to deal with.

Faced with the hunting of many powerful men in the Black Horn Region, the power of the Demon Flame Valley began to shrink. At the same time, the old demon who had been in seclusion for several months finally showed up and forcefully crushed several Douhuang strongmen to death. At the same time, he threatened to completely destroy the entire Black Seal City!
The moment this news came out, it immediately detonated the entire Black Horn Region, and also caused a large number of people in Black Seal City to flee. They dared not stay in Black Seal City, causing it to quickly decline.

However, many Douhuang powerful men did not leave. Many of them still stayed around, wanting to see the final outcome.

Everyone has a hunch that the outcome of this battle will most likely determine the true king of the Black Horn Region in the future!
As for Canaan Academy, it was excluded by everyone. After all, Canaan Academy would not participate in the fighting in the Black Horn Region. This has been the tradition of Canaan Academy. If Demon Flame Valley and Han Feng had not joined forces to break into Canaan Academy, there would not have been the subsequent incidents.

As time went by, the atmosphere in Black Seal City became more and more depressing. Yuan Yi's face began to turn pale. Because he had no way of running away, he could only pray that Yao Yan would defeat the old demon, otherwise his ending would definitely not be good.

In comparison, Yao Yan's daily life has become calmer. With the reappearance of the old demon, the number of people exchanging pills has dropped rapidly. He no longer needs to continue refining pills and has entered a period of considerable leisure time. He accompanies Cai Lin every day, and even if he just looks at her, he feels that time passes very quickly.

At the same time, after more than half a month of high-frequency alchemy, the fighting spirit in his body was completely under his control and he began to improve slowly again.

In response to this, Yao Lao and Tianhuo Zun Zun were silent.

One can only sigh that people have different talents. If it were someone else, it would probably take several years of adjustment before they could advance again. However, Yao Yan didn't seem to have this worry. After less than a month of settling down, he seemed to be able to continue advancing. This kind of talent for cultivation is simply terrifying.

"This kid's body is really scary. Are all the people in the imperial family like this?" Venerable Tianhuo asked, looking at Yao Lao beside him.

"……do not know."

Yao Lao spoke frankly, with the power of his bloodline, his status in the Yao clan was not as good as Yao Yan's back then, not to mention other information. However, there was one thing he was sure of, for those with a strong Dou Di bloodline, practicing was indeed as easy as eating and drinking.

It might be difficult to break through to Dou Sheng, but Dou Zong and even Dou Zun are within reach...

The Skyfire Master was silent for a moment, then asked, "How is your soul recovering?"

Separating the strange fire that has been with him for hundreds of years will inevitably cause damage to his own soul. If Yao Lao's soul was not strong enough, this step would be enough to make him fall asleep directly.

"With the soul-nourishing pill refined by that kid, everything will be fine~" Yao Lao said softly.

The Soul-Nourishing Pill is a seventh-grade top-level medicinal pill that uses the Soul-Nourishing Wood as its main ingredient. It can restore the soul to its peak state, and the medicinal effect will last for a long time, allowing the soul body to live like a living person. In terms of soul strength alone, Yao Lao is now even stronger than before.

However, the loss of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire had a huge impact on him, and a decline in his combat power was inevitable, especially for him in his soul state.

"You should have waited a little longer. If that old demon is not easy to deal with, we can also take that kid and run away~" Skyfire Reverend made a joke. He did not have the arrogance of a Dou Zun. It was never a shameful thing to run away when he could not win.

It is the most foolish thing to do if you can't win but still fight back.

"No impact~" Yao Lao said calmly, looking at the boy who was drinking tea with Cai Lin in the distance, with some emotion and expectation in his eyes. He also wanted to see what level Yao Yan's strength had reached now. If he could suffer a loss, perhaps it would be a good thing.

at this time.

A large number of powerful auras suddenly spread from the distant sky, and at the same time, these auras were rapidly approaching Black Seal City at a terrifying speed. (End of this chapter)
