In the calm room, Yao Lao picked up the Purple Bluegrass with his left hand. Moments later, he lets out a deep breath and a white flame appears in his hand…
When the flame appeared, the temperature within the room rose exponentially while around Yao Lao everything start to get freeze .
Without blinking, Xiao Yan stared at the white ball of flame. it is Chilling Bone Flame 11th in Heavenly Flame ranking .
With a calm face, the chilling bone flame in Yao Lao's hands expanded and swallowed the Purple Bluegrass…. Within the flame, the Purple Bluegrass instantly became a green liquid ball…
Yao Lao's right hand picked up another stalk of Purple Bluegrass and threw it into the white fire…
After throwing all three stalks of Purple Bluegrass into the fire, the ball of green liquid became visibly bigger.
The green liquid slowly shriveled within the fire; the high temperature relentlessly burned the impurities within the green liquid…
With the flame, the green liquid became smaller and smaller in volume. After a few seconds, it was only about the size of a thumb…
Afterwards, Yao Lao threw the two stalks of Bone Washing Flowers into the flame and after they finished burning, the remaining liquid mixed with the original green liquid…
After that was the refinement of the monster core.
After an entire hour, the tough monster core had become a ball of green liquid. The violent energy within the monster core was softened by Yao Lao's magical formula…
On his hand, the white flame slowly disappeared everything become as before it was.
Looking at the green ball floating on top of Yao Lao's hand, Xiao Yao rubbed his hands together. With his superior Soul Perception, he could clearly feel the bountiful energy within the energy ball…
Yao Lao flicks the ball and it accurately flew into the bowl of water. Immediately, the bowl of clear water turned to a dark green shade.
"From now on, you should train in there. With your talent and barring any unforeseen circumstances, you should be able to get to 7 Duan Qi within a year."
Yao Lao claps the dust off of his hands and lightly smiles towards Xiao Yan.
With obvious happiness, Xiao Yan hurriedly nodded his head.
...
The warm sun filtered through the window and lazily sprayed into the tidy room.
Within the room, a young man with a bare upper body was sitting crossed within a wooden bowl. His two hands were knit together into a strange symbol. His two eyes were shut tightly while his breath was calm but powerful.
In the wooden bowl beneath him, a mysterious green liquid was strangely sparkling.
As he trained longer, the green liquid within the bowl began to slowly evaporate, giving off a light green stream of air. stream slowly lifted upwards and squirmed into the young man's nose with his breathing.
Once the stream was inside his body, the young man's face became shiny and smooth like White Jade.
As if he felt the ever increasing Dou Qi within his body, the young man's face revealed a light smile.
After confirming his success, the young man didn't stop there. He still had his eyes shut tight and kept his hands in the same position. He didn't even budge and maintained his maximally efficient position as he greedily sucked up the energy within the green liquid.
The green liquid sticking to the young man's body was slowly absorbed by his skin, strengthening his bones and cleaning his Qi paths…
Under the young man's restless absorbance, more and more green streams came up from the bowl and slowly, they became so dense that they covered the young man's naked body in a layer of mist.
Under the restless training, the bright sunshine that came in through the window slowly became weaker and the room became a lot cooler.
…..
In the wooden bowl, the young man gathered in the final wisps of green air and his eyelashes twitched before opening to reveal two pitch-black eyes.
Within the pitch black eyes, a white glow passed through but this time, it had a hint of green.
Slowly letting out a breath, the young man quickly stood up and let the cool water droplets flow off of his body. Taking a lazy stretch and feeling the abundant Dou Qi within his body, the young man muttered: "At this pace, I can probably get to the fifth Duan Qi in two months…"
After preparing everything, Xiao Yan stayed in his room for an entire half month. In the time he stayed in his room, besides eating and attending bodily functions, he had been training his Qi non-stop.
After seeing Xiao Yan memories of three full years of taunts had taught him how important strength was in this world….
Even though the days passed tiresomely, the results of them were pleasing.
The effects of Yao Lao's bowl of elixir was much stronger than what Xiao Yan and even the creator of it, Yao Lao had thought it would have. Yao Lao had predicted that it would take at least a month for Xiao Yan to get to 4 Duan Qi, but Xiao Yan only took half that time….
At this, even Yao Lao was surprised at the speed and efficiency in which Xiao Yan trained. Even though Xiao Yan had done this before, the speed at which he was going right now, isn't a bit too incredible?
The most important and toughest part about training Dou Qi is in the basics. The 10 Duan Qi would take people 10 to even 20 years… Of course, once a person becomes a Dou Zhe then their training speed would increase exponentially. If one can only raise one Duan Qi in a year before becoming a Dou Zhe then that same person could probably go up a couple of stars in a year once after becoming a Dou Zhe….
When the training speed was slanted towards later times, Xiao Yan's performance in half a month was surprising to say the least.
….
In the morning, a pale mist had shrouded the surrounding summit and lingered for a very long time. A gentle wind blew by and suddenly a physical grunt could be heard.
Behind the summit, in a hidden groove, both of Xiao Yan's feet were inserted into the soil like tree stumps. His toes clung to the ground while he gnashed his teeth together and had cold sweat pour over his forehead. He only wore short pants and on his naked upper body were crisscrossed scars.
Behind Xiao Yan was Yao Lao in spirit mode, cross-legged above a giant stone. His face was solemn as he gazed at Xiao Yan clenching his teeth to fight off the pain and then his palm softly swung upwards.
Following Yao Lao's palm, a red, materialized Dou Qi shot out from Yao Lao's palm. Just like a whip, it harshly smashed against Xiao Yan's shoulder, leaving behind a long bruise.
As the corners of his mouth violently trembled, Xiao Yan inhaled cold air through the slivers between his teeth in response to the pain. Xiao Yan's shoulder numbed and a wave of scorching pain made its way to his heart. Under the brutal pain, Xiao Yan felt his feet soften, and almost fell off balance…
Under the violent pain, the original weak Dou Qi within Xiao Yan became more animated than before and quickly flowed through the Qi paths and pressure points on Xiao Yan's shoulder. Strands of cool slowly seeped into into his bones and quietly strengthened in the progress.
"Again!" When the pain on his shoulder gradually faded away, Xiao Yan young face was filled with persistence and stubborness and yelled while clenching his teeth.
Looking at persevering Xiao Yan, a gratified smile appeared on Yao Lao's withered face. Slightly nodded, a red materialized Dou Qi shot out from his palm again.
"Bang, Bang, Bang…" Within the small forest, as strike after strike hit Xiao Yan, low grunts along with naked hits sounded…
Every one of Yao Lao's attacks were at the exact point of maximum endurance for Xiao Yan's body. The attacks wouldn't harm Xiao Yan seriously but still brought Xiao Yan the maximum pain possible.
The pain from the Dou Qi lashes caused an unbearable pain, forcing Xiao Yan young face to contort in agony.
On his body, with Yao Lao's swings, more and more crisscrossed scars appeared…
"Bang!" another materialized Dou Qi shot out and the wood stake like Xiao Yan finally reached his limit. With weakened legs, he fell down paralyzed.
Fiercely gasped for air, Xiao Yan wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead and lifting his head up to make a rough smile, he asked: "Teacher, how was it?"
"Not bad, you took eighty four Dou Qi lashes today. That's a lot better than when you started out half a month ago and only able to take nine lashes…" Yao Lao had a smile on his face and nodded.
A glint of surprise flirted across his eyes, in the past half-month, the tenacity that Xiao Yan displayed was far beyond what was originally expected. For example, today, Yao Lao had originally thought that seventy Dou Qi lashes was Xiao Yan's limit but the later had persevered to eighty-four lashes. Yao Lao could not help but admire the spirit of Xiao Yan.
After listening to Yao Lao words, Xiao Yan let out a deep breath and slumped on the ground and thought its really hurts . When he regained feeling, he slowly get up and to put back the clothing he had taken off and placed on a nearby rock but then someone came there it was Xun Er who had just come.
"Xun Er what happened ". Xiao Yan said while walking to her.
"Mm..." Xun Er who was about to say but after Xiao Yan body which is injured she angrily said while coming close to him " Xiao Yan ge ge who did this ".
"This happened because I pushed to hard while training yes this is happened because I worked really hard. " he said.
"Xiao Yan ge ge you don't need to hurt your self like this let nature take its course. " Xun Er while taking Xiao Yan hand sits on rock behind them and with a gentle voice said.
She start to clean his body with her handkerchief and said: "Xiao Yan ge ge don't push to hard."
Xiao Yan eyes fell on her face she also head up her face and meet Xiao Yan eyes after feeling gaze Xiao Yan on her she got shy and moved her body to other side :" Xiao Yan ge ge what are you looking at. "
Xiao yan with a smile said "nothing just tired".
Xun Er after that moved and said:"gage why don't you lie down and rest a bit"
Xiao Yan feeling the softer legs and silky dress of Xun Er while smelling her pleasant smell he just fell asleep.
"He is really working hard I need to help him" Xun Er said while moving natural Dou Qi around her to Xiao Yan and when she felt he is going to break through .
Leaving him on rock she gets up after some time Xiao Yan gets up after feeling something different he said :" I have broke through to Dou Zhi Qi 9th stage. "
Xun Er with a smile came close and with a gentle voice said : "congratulations Xiao Yan ge ge you are amazing to break through in while sleeping."
Xiao Yan nodded with a smile while asked :"by the way how Xiao clan is doing now".
Xun Er start to tell him " During your training Jia Li clan pills have took over entire clan market. They also caused trouble in entire Xiao clan market."
Xiao Yan with coldness said " they are being to dominating. " after thinking action time has come for him he said to Xun Er : "let's go".
Nodding, Xun Er left the forest with him.
