After returning to his residence, Yang Xiaotian brought the Cold Moon Sword Technique to the Great Accomplishment realm and then began alchemy.
Having ample supply of the supreme Four Symbols Spirit Pills was always advantageous, so he naturally did not mind having more.
After all, he still had many medicinal herbs on hand.
It was deep into the night when Yang Xiaotian finally practiced the Primordial Dragon Art.
The next morning, he began practicing the Innate Top Secret Manuals he had exchanged from the Academy Repository the day before.
Having practiced swordsmanship for the previous days, he had exchanged for a leg technique instead of a sword technique yesterday, namely the “Divine Wind Kick.”
This Divine Wind Kick was quite interesting; when cultivated to the Perfection Realm, a single kick could raise a hurricane, and when brought to Summit Mastery, a kick could even unleash a tornado-like storm.
After finishing and memorizing the Divine Wind Kick secret tome, Yang
Xiaotian began his practice.
Soon, gusty winds rose within the courtyard.
By the time he had cultivated the Divine Wind Kick to Great Accomplishment, it was nearly noon.
Lately, Yang Xiaotian felt that a day’s time was not sufficient.
Especially after comprehending the Stone Sword, he still needed to take half a day each day to practice the Stone Sword Technique.
Therefore, Yang Xiaotian decided that for the future Innate Top Martial Techniques from the Book Pavilion, he would only cultivate them to the Minor Achievement Realm.
Since he would eventually break through to the Great Accomplishment and Perfection Realms with time, there was no need to rush to achieve Great Accomplishment on the same day.
In this way, he could spare two hours to do other things.
Yang Xiaotian leisurely walked to Luo Qing’s courtyard and saw Luo Qing practicing his boxing. With every punch Luo Qing threw, more than a dozen fist imprints materialized in the air.
Moreover, the fist imprints carried a strange flame.
Seeing this abnormal flame, Yang Xiaotian was astonished.
In recent days, he had been reading alchemy books and had some understanding of the flames between Heaven and Earth.
There were all types of flames among Heaven and Earth, including Spiritual Fires, Abnormal Fires, and Divine Flames.
If one could subdue these flames and integrate them into one’s True Qi, it would not only enhance the attack power of True Qi, but also improve the potency of elixirs.
The flames that came with Luo Qing’s fist imprints should be one of the Spiritual Fires or Abnormal Fires.
However, whether Spiritual Fire or Abnormal Fire, both were exceedingly difficult to subdue because these Heaven and Earth flames were wildly potent, and the chances of successful subjugation were extremely slim.
Many powerful beings failed in their attempts and were instead burned to ashes by these Heaven and Earth fires.
It was unexpected that Luo Qing had successfully subdued one.
“Young Master,” at that moment, Luo Qing, who was practicing his boxing technique, saw Yang Xiaotian coming over and stopped practicing to walk over with a smile.
Yang Xiaotian hummed a response and smilingly asked, “Luo Qing, the flame in your fist imprints, it’s an Abnormal Fire, isn’t it?”
Luo Qing respectfully answered, “Yes, Young Master. I was fortunate to subdue this Abnormal Fire, although it is just the Black Wind Flame at the bottom of the Abnormal Fire List.”
Yang Xiaotian nodded.
Indeed, it was an Abnormal Fire within Luo Qing’s body.
In terms of power among the Heaven and Earth flames, Spiritual Fires are the weakest, followed by Abnormal Fires, with Divine Flames being the strongest.
Even the weakest Abnormal Fire at the bottom of the Abnormal Fire List is more powerful than any Spiritual Fire.
And since Abnormal Fires are rare, with only several hundred varieties, the fact that Luo Qing managed to subdue the Black Wind Flame was quite remarkable.
Luo Qing said with a sigh, “To subdue this Black Wind Flame, I went through an experience akin to dying nine times over, almost getting burnt to a soulless ash.”
Thinking back on that situation, he was still frightened.
Yang Xiaotian then inquired about Luo Qing’s cultivation progress.
Luo Qing mentioned that after taking the supreme Four Symbols Spirit Pill, his True Qi had improved, yet breaking through to the Martial Ancestor Realm was still challenging.
Afterward, Yang Xiaotian went to visit Ate, Ali, and the Golden Armored Beast.
Ate and Ali were practicing War God Art, and with the help of the Supreme Four Symbols Spirit Pill, they were progressing rapidly and had already reached the second level of Innate.
As for Xiao Jin, its size appeared to have not changed much, but its speech had become more fluent; it no longer stuttered. The problem was, the little fellow loved meat and became unhappy without it. It often went out of the city to hunt beasts and was also fond of acting coquettishly like a six or seven-year- old child.
Upon leaving his residence, Yang Xiaotian was contemplating the matter of Heaven and Earth Fire on his way to the Academy Repository.
If he could subdue Heaven and Earth Fire, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to his alchemy.
For an alchemist, no matter how strong their Soul Power was, or how formidable the Heaven and Earth Fire they could draw upon, the best elixirs they could refine were of supreme quality.
However, if he could subdue Divine Flame and use it for alchemy, there was hope for his supreme quality elixirs to break through to paramount quality!
The power of a paramount quality elixir was incomparable to that of a supreme one.
Paramount quality elixirs, refined through the Divine Flame, were incredibly pure, with virtually negligible side effects.
However, Divine Flames were scant in this world, with barely a few dozen kinds. These Divine Flames were hidden deep within the vast mountains and great rivers, making them extremely difficult to find.
“I wonder if the Academy Repository has any books describing Divine Flames,” Yang Xiaotian thought to himself, planning to search thoroughly once he arrived at the Repository.
After reaching the Repository, Yang Xiaotian exchanged for an Innate Top Sword Technique and began searching for books on Divine Flames; eventually, he did find one.
However, this book on Divine Flames was only a few dozen pages long and merely described their shapes and powers; it contained nothing of value.
Disappointed, Yang Xiaotian left the Repository with the Innate Top Sword Technique Secret Tome.
Seeing Yang Xiaotian leaving the Repository, many students followed suit, speculating whether he would continue to comprehend the third Stone Sword today.
“I bet Yang Xiaotian will continue to comprehend the third Stone Sword today!”
“I’d die before I believe that Yang Xiaotian can comprehend the third Stone Sword today!”
“I heard that after Brother Hu Xing returned yesterday, he blasted all the stone stools in his courtyard to smithereens.”
“Turned to smithereens? Doesn’t that mean he will have to sit on the ground from now on?”
A group of students laughed behind him.
Yang Xiaotian smiled upon hearing the conversations of the students behind him.
Sit on the ground, huh?
If he could comprehend the third Stone Sword today, he wondered if Hu Xing would go so far as to dig up the earth in his courtyard.
Yang Xiaotian arrived at Hundred Swords Plaza and, under the tense gaze of the students following him, walked up to the third Stone Sword.
Seeing that Yang Xiaotian was actually going to continue comprehending the third Stone Sword today, the students were shocked.
“Yang Xiaotian is going to comprehend the third Stone Sword!” a student shouted excitedly, as if he himself was the one about to do the comprehending.
Suddenly, those students began to spread the news.
Yang Xiaotian, watching the students scurrying to tell others, felt somewhat speechless; his attempt to comprehend a Stone Sword seemed to have turned into a grand joyous event for the academy.
Meanwhile, Lin Yong and Chen Yuan, upon hearing that Yang Xiaotian was going to comprehend the third Stone Sword, hurriedly put down their Martial Soul Secret Manuals and rushed towards Hundred Swords Plaza, fearing they’d be too late. They even each ingested a Spirit Pill in their haste.
However, as they were halfway there, a sword’s Qi suddenly shot up to the sky.
Stunned by the dazzling Sword Qi at Hundred Swords Plaza, they were at a loss for words.
Damn!
They were too late.
In Hu Xing’s courtyard, following the surge of the Sword Qi, one could hear the angry roars of the injured Hu Xing, while dust billowed and filled the sky. Just as Yang Xiaotian had guessed, Hu Xing began digging up the earth in his courtyard.
