Chapter 100 Everything is ready
In order to celebrate the reunion and first meeting of the three, Lin Yuan personally cooked a sumptuous meal. With his superb alchemy and cooking skills, he combined various precious medicinal materials and ingredients to create a variety of delicious and energy-rich delicacies.
When Zi Yan saw those delicious foods that were rich in energy, her eyes immediately lit up. She couldn't wait to start eating them, as if she wanted to swallow all the delicious food into her stomach.
Lin Yuan was watching this familiar scene from the sidelines, and couldn't help but reveal a nostalgic smile on his face.
Zi Yan, who was eating, suddenly turned her head and looked at Lin Yuan, with curiosity flashing in her eyes: "Lin Yuan, tell me about what's happening outside." For her, who has been staying in the inner courtyard after her transformation, the outside world is quite attractive.
Lin Yuan smiled slightly, nodded, and began to talk about what he saw and heard during his travels.
Qing Lin chuckled beside him, sometimes helping Lin Yuan pour wine, and sometimes helping to add some details.
In Lin Yuan and Qing Lin's narration, Zi Yan heard many interesting stories and characters, among which Queen Medusa and Xiao Cai, two people incarnated from magical beasts, particularly aroused her interest.
"Medusa and Xiaocai? I want to go and see them. Next time you go out, you must take me with you." Zi Yan said excitedly.
Lin Yuan nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will take you with me."
"That's great! By the way, Brother Lin Yuan, after you left, I was bullied in the back mountain by some people... No, I was bullied by some monsters. Now that you are back, hehe." Zi Yan smiled playfully, as if she had an idea.
At night, after Zi Yan and Qing Lin had gone to bed, Lin Yuan sat alone at the stone table with a lazy look on his face. He rested his chin on his left hand, gently rotated the wine glass in his right hand, looked at the bright moon in the glass, and thought about what to do next.
"From the attitudes of the Great Elder and the Vice Dean, Qing'er should be regarded as one of the pillars of the academy's future, just like me. In this way, if Qing'er is under pressure from some Warcraft families in the Beast Domain because of the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils in the future, the Dean should be able to protect her."
"After Zi Yan eats all the natural treasures I prepared for her, she should be able to break through to the sixth level."
"Next, we should focus on breaking through to Dou Huang. After breaking through to Dou Huang, it will be time to deal with some things in the Black Horn Region. Han Feng, the third incomplete map."
"Let's go to the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower to polish our Dou Qi first. After tempering our Dou Qi in the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower and preparing the Zhihuang Dan, it's time to go into seclusion."
In the next few days, Lin Yuan made a training plan for Qing Lin to ensure that she could improve her strength in an orderly manner. Afterwards, he accompanied Zi Yan to the back mountain where the monsters gathered and helped her retrieve several treasures that she had been thinking about. After everything was ready, Lin Yuan went to the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower to prepare to temper his fighting spirit there.
In the training room at the bottom of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower.
Lin Yuan created two shadow clones, one of which studied the incomplete soul practice "Tian Xin Hun Jue"; the other continued to study the part about the exquisite use of soul power in the inheritance of the eighth-grade alchemist.
Lin Yuan inserted the Fire Crystal Card into the card slot, then sat cross-legged on the stone platform for training, closed his eyes slightly, and started practicing. As the Tiandu Fire Code was running, he gradually entered the state of training and devoted himself to the tempering of his fighting spirit.
Just as Lin Yuan inserted the Fire Crystal Card into the card slot, in the endless sea of fire under the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, the tightly closed triangular snake pupils of an extremely huge invisible fire python suddenly opened wide, and a fierce and cruel aura emanated from it. The surrounding magma sea also began to fluctuate. It was the real body of the Fallen Heart Flame.
As if it had sensed something, a human-like greed emanated from the fire python's pupils, and it began to explore the source of the tempting scent.
The invisible flame in Lin Yuan's body suddenly became agile. It seemed to be searching for something, wandering around in Lin Yuan's meridians.
“Is it coming? Fallen Heart Flame, it seems that it has sensed the aura of the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire in my body.” Lin Yuan’s mouth curled up slightly, and with a thought, he released the aura of the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire in his body.
As Lin Yuan took the initiative to release the aura of the deeply hidden Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, the Fallen Heart Flame sealed at the bottom of the tower also clearly sensed the existence of the strange fire in Lin Yuan's body through the Heart Fire clone in Lin Yuan's body. Its snake pupils widened, as if it had seen its long-lost prey.
Afterwards, the Fallen Heart Flame began to project more heart fire into Lin Yuan's body, trying to destroy Lin Yuan, the host of the Green Lotus Earth Heart Fire.
The actions of the Fallen Heart Flame were exactly what Lin Yuan wanted. He aroused the Azure Lotus Earth Heart Fire in his body in moderation, making the Azure Fire only slightly stronger than the Heart Fire that had invaded his body, and then let the two engage in a confrontation. Through the wonderful connection between the different fires, Lin Yuan constantly provoked the Fallen Heart Flame, causing it to increase its strength against him and project more power over.
Under Lin Yuan's provocation, the Fallen Heart Flame became even more violent, constantly projecting more heart fires into Lin Yuan's body, trying to destroy him. These heart fires were like countless fire snakes, wandering in Lin Yuan's meridians, fighting with the Azure Lotus Heart Fire in Lin Yuan's body, and tempering his fighting spirit.
Lin Yuan could feel that his fighting spirit became more refined under this kind of training, and his strength, which was at a bottleneck, also began to improve little by little.
Time passed unnoticed, and Lin Yuan was completely immersed in this wonderful state of cultivation. In his body, the battle between the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire and the Fallen Heart Flame continued, and his Dou Qi cultivation was slowly moving towards the limit of Dou Wang.
half a month later.
The blue fire and heart fire in Lin Yuan's body intertwined and entangled, forming a spectacular picture. A large amount of invisible heart fire, under the control of an invisible fire snake with a smart and ruthless gaze, confronted the surrounding blue fire.
"Has it reached its limit? It seems that this is the maximum power that the Fallen Heart Flame can project." Lin Yuan said in his heart.
"Then it's time to close the net." His mind moved, and the seals on his hands began to change, and several mysterious seals were formed.
Under the astonished gaze of the Fire Snake Soul of the Fallen Heart Flame, the Azure Lotus Earth Heart Fire that originally maintained a delicate balance with the Heart Fire in Lin Yuan's body expanded, engulfing the Heart Fire that the Fallen Heart Flame had been continuously projecting for half a month and rushing towards a Azure Lotus Mark. This Azure Lotus Mark seemed to have endless greed, constantly devouring the rushing Azure Fire, and finally turned into a solid seal.
As the seal gradually took shape, the massive amount of heart fire and a wisp of soul that the Fallen Heart Flame had projected over the past half month were firmly sealed, compressed, and aggregated under the power of this powerful seal. Not long after, these heart fire and soul were condensed into a transparent fire bead.
Lin Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and a condensed aura burst out from his body. His aura also became deeper and longer than half a month ago.
"Have you reached the limit of Dou Wang? If you want to improve your Dou Qi cultivation, you need to break through the bottleneck of Dou Huang."
"The fire spirit of the Fallen Heart Flame is quite intelligent. It wants to project its power into my body bit by bit through the Heart Flame clones to kill me. It seems that after killing me, it wants to cause the Azure Lotus Earth Heart Flame that has lost its host to explode outside and attack the seal from above. It will then attack the seal from below, thus breaking the seal in one fell swoop."
"Unfortunately, my strength is not enough to kill with long-range power projection and soul division."
He exhaled lightly, and a colorless and transparent fire bead flew out and landed in his palm. "The Heart Fire Bead that seals the soul of the Fallen Heart Flame, good stuff."
Lin Yuan tossed the Heart Fire Pearl in his hand, analyzing the long-range battles with the Fallen Heart Flame in the past few days, and thought to himself: "Although the Fallen Heart Flame is powerful, its soul does not seem to be strong. If we can attack its soul directly, maybe it will be much easier to deal with it? Forget it, I will break through to the Douhuang first, and then find a way to deal with it."
"It's almost time to make the Imperial Pill as agreed with the Fire Master. I hope this pill refining can help him and help him break through to the sixth-rank alchemist as soon as possible."
Lin Yuan took back the two shadow clones, absorbed their insights about the soul, then stood up and walked out of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower.
After leaving the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, Lin Yuan returned to his own small courtyard. He pushed open the courtyard door and saw Qing Lin sitting at the stone table, concentrating on comprehending the "Heavenly Illusionary Spiritual Bright True Pupil".
Seeing Lin Yuan coming back, Qing Lin showed a happy smile on her face. She stood up and walked towards Lin Yuan.
"Sir, you are back!"
Lin Yuan smiled and nodded, then asked, "Qing'er, are you used to Canaan College?"
Qinglin nodded, a bright smile on his face, "Well, I like it here! When the young master was in seclusion, Zi Yan took me to many interesting places, and the elder also took good care of me."
"By the way, the students here seem to be very afraid of Zi Yan." Speaking of this, she remembered the students older than her, trembling in front of Zi Yan, and couldn't help laughing, "Zi Yan is so cute, I really don't know what there is to be afraid of?" "Really? It seems that you are used to it here, so it's good." Seeing that Qing Lin and Zi Yan got along very well, Lin Yuan was very relieved, and then asked: "Where is Zi Yan?"
Qinglin pointed to Ziyan's room and said, "Ziyan took a few bottles of pills yesterday and said she wanted to sleep for a few days. Then she has been sleeping in the room ever since."
"I'll go take a look." Lin Yuan said as he walked to Zi Yan's room and gently opened the door. He saw Zi Yan sleeping quietly.
Lin Yuan checked carefully and confirmed that Zi Yan was fine before he closed the door with confidence. This girl had taken a lot of pills and high-level treasures recently, and she was trying her best to digest the medicine. He estimated that when Zi Yan woke up, her strength would be greatly improved, and she might even reach the level of an eight-star Dou Wang or even a nine-star Dou Wang.
"The Taixu Ancient Dragon Royal Family is indeed extremely talented." Lin Yuan sighed in his heart, "As long as there are enough resources, Zi Yan's advancement speed will be very rapid."
Sitting back at the stone table, Lin Yuan suddenly thought of something and took out the Heart Fire Pearl that sealed a trace of the Fallen Heart Flame's soul and handed it to Qing Lin: "Qing'er, try to see if your Green Snake Three Flower Pupils can control the snake-shaped soul in this pearl."
Upon hearing this, Qing Lin immediately used the Green Snake Three Flower Pupil to try, but in the end he shook his head: "Sir, although the soul in the bead is snake-shaped, it is not a snake-like monster. My Green Snake Three Flower Pupil cannot control it."
Lin Yuan was not disappointed when he heard this. He didn't have high expectations in the first place: "Sure enough, the Fallen Heart Flame, which looks like a fire python, is ultimately fire rather than a python." He smiled faintly and put away the Heart Fire Pearl.
Retracting his scattered thoughts, Lin Yuan turned to Qing Lin and said with a gentle smile: "Qing'er, you don't need to be too obsessed with the cultivation of 'Heavenly Illusionary Spiritual Bright True Pupil' at present. The entry difficulty of this fighting skill is quite high, and the requirements for soul power are extremely strict. As the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. At this stage, you should focus on improving your cultivation. As your cultivation increases, your soul power will naturally increase. I will teach you some special techniques for training soul power. When your cultivation and soul power reach a certain level, learning this fighting skill will become handy and natural."
Qing Lin heard this, nodded, and replied: "I understand, sir."
Lin Yuan nodded slightly and continued: "Okay, now I will explain to you in detail how to train your soul power."
Two days later, in an advanced alchemy room in the inner courtyard.
At the edge of the alchemy room, Elder Huo stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes as sharp as torches, quietly waiting to observe the entire process of Lin Yuan's alchemy.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged in front of a huge medicine cauldron, with more than twenty jade boxes placed around him, each of which contained a precious medicinal ingredient.
Lin Yuan closed his eyes lightly, and the method of refining the "Supreme Emperor Pill" and all the things that needed to be paid attention to flashed through his mind again. After a moment, his eyes suddenly opened, and green flames rose in his dark eyes.
Lin Yuan flicked his right hand, and a wisp of green flame flew into the medicine cauldron like a stream of light.
The tiny flame suddenly expanded when it entered the cauldron. In an instant, the tiny flame turned into a raging fire, burning wildly inside the cauldron. The scorching heat spread in the alchemy room, and the temperature of the cauldron gradually rose.
After the temperature inside the medicine cauldron reached a constant level, Lin Yuan began to take out a medicinal ingredient - earth spirit root - from the jade box beside him and threw it into the cauldron.
Afterwards, Lin Yuan controlled the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire to wrap the Earth Spirit Root. Then, with a thought, the temperature around the Earth Spirit Root suddenly rose.
Under the high temperature burning of the strange fire, the earth spirit root began to melt slowly. This process lasted for about half an hour before the earth spirit root turned into a ball of emerald green thick liquid. As the liquid flowed, it emitted extremely rich and pure energy.
After the refining was completed, Lin Yuan began to refine it, removing all impurities and leaving only the purest liquid medicine. It took half an hour to refine it. In this way, the processing of the first herb was completed.
Then, Lin Yuan waved his sleeves, put another medicinal herb into the medicine cauldron, and began the same refining and tempering work.
As time passed slowly, the medicinal materials in the jade box around Lin Yuan gradually decreased. A rich medicinal fragrance mixed together lingered in the alchemy room like clouds.
As the extraction of medicinal materials was completed, Lin Yuan's face became solemn. The really difficult step was about to begin.
"Purifying Spirit Technique: Clear and Clear!"
The Purifying Soul Technique was activated, and Lin Yuan entered a state of emptiness and clarity. Lin Yuan's eyes became extremely lofty, and his soul perception was fully open, sensing everything in the alchemy furnace. He put a large amount of soul power into the alchemy furnace, carefully and meticulously controlling the fusion of the many pure medicinal liquids in the medicine cauldron.
Under Lin Yuan's extremely delicate operation in the clear state, many pure medicinal liquids were integrated together in an orderly manner, and a ball of colorful liquid half the size of a fist appeared in the medicine cauldron.
Afterwards, Lin Yuan followed the instructions on the Zhihuang Pill recipe and used his powerful soul power to precisely control the temperature, causing the medicinal powers of the many medicinal liquids in the colorful liquid mass to begin to blend, and then subtly controlled the temperature to make it solidify.
About half an hour later, the fusion of medicinal power and the liquid mass were finally completed, and a green imperial pill with an uneven surface was finally formed.
The moment the prototype of this pill took shape, the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth suddenly fluctuated.
Lin Yuan's expression did not change at all in response to this. His mind was closely focused on the changes in the pills in the medicine cauldron.
At a certain moment, the seal on Lin Yuan's hand changed.
The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire was like a nimble green snake, pouring into the alchemy furnace, compressing, condensing, and turning into a blue flame lotus, tightly wrapping the elixir in the furnace. The energy of heaven and earth poured into it crazily, nourishing the elixir in the furnace.
As time went by, the somewhat irregularly shaped green pill prototype gradually became round, and a soft green light emanated from it.
Not long after, a light shout was heard.
"The Supreme Emperor Pill is done!"
In the alchemy furnace, a green pill was completely formed. A powerful energy wave emanated from the furnace, and the energy ripples spread out in all directions with the furnace as the center.
A green light shot up into the sky, cutting through the horizon, revealing the extraordinary quality of this Supreme Pill.
Lin Yuan came out of the state of emptiness and clarity, a hint of fatigue flashed across his eyes, but was quickly replaced by joy.
He waved his sleeves lightly, and the green Supreme Emperor Pill flew out of the medicine cauldron as if summoned, and lay quietly in his palm. He carefully examined the pill, with satisfaction in his eyes, and nodded gently, "Good pill."
Lin Yuan turned his gaze to Elder Huo, who looked as if he had just realized something important. His eyes were shining with excitement, and he muttered to himself, "So that's how it is. I finally understand! Lin Yuan, thank you very much. I'll leave first."
After saying that, Elder Huo hurriedly said goodbye to Lin Yuan and left the alchemy room. He was obviously driven by his previous insights and was eager to verify his own experience.
Looking at Elder Huo's departing back, Lin Yuan silently wished that he could break through the bottleneck that had trapped him for many years.
Afterwards, Lin Yuan looked at the Supreme Emperor Pill in his hand, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"My fighting spirit has been raised to its current limit, and the Supreme Emperor Pill has been refined. Next, I will practice in seclusion to increase my soul power and strive for the realm of the Douhuang."
