Who was that person just now?!Everyone looked at the place where Yao Yan and the old man disappeared, and all showed an expression of disbelief. Among them, the expressions of the ancestors of the Cao family and the Song family were the most shocked. They did not expect that Yao Yan would actually alarm the great elder of the Small Dan Tower, whom they had only met once. "This kid is going to poke a hole in the sky!" The Song family ancestor's lips moved, and his tone trembled slightly, which showed how greatly his emotions fluctuated at the moment. He has been an alchemist for hundreds of years, but now he is not even as good as a kid in his early twenties. This feeling is simply indescribable. When did alchemy become so easy? The ancestor of the Cao family did not say anything, but patted Cao Ying's little head and said slowly: "Ying'er, let's go back." The matter has come to an end, and the young man is also valued by the Great Elder of Xiaodanta. At this point, even if the five major families have some ideas, they can't change anything. After all, in the Douluo Continent, strength speaks. The Great Elder of Xiaodanta is a Douluo Saint-level existence. Facing such an existence, their little tricks will only add to the joke. Cao Ying nodded, but her eyes were still fixed on the place where Yao Yan had just made the elixir, as if she couldn't forget that figure. At the same time, the quiet square suddenly became noisy. The topic that everyone was discussing was Yao Yan, and some even felt sorry for him. If he had been born a dozen years earlier, he would have been the champion of the previous Alchemy Conference. Yao Yan could even have won the championship with a crushing advantage and broken the record set by Yao Lao. Now, there are still more than ten years to the next Alchemy Conference. By then, Yao Yan's alchemy skills will surely be taken to a higher level. By then, it is estimated that the opponent will not be able to come out and compete with a group of "kids". Although there is no age limit for the Alchemy Contest, most of the alchemy masters above the eighth rank will not be able to participate.
After all, these alchemy masters all have to save face. They are all well-known figures. Who would compete with a group of seventh-grade alchemists in alchemy skills? But this is ultimately a matter for the future. One thing everyone can be sure of is that the name Yao Yan will be known throughout Zhongzhou! …… the other side. Under the guidance of the old man, Yao Yan came to an ancient courtyard, which was decorated like a rural courtyard and even had a vegetable garden. However, the vegetables planted there were not edible vegetables, but some extremely precious natural treasures. The leaves were colorful and extremely magical. It is hard to imagine that someone could grow so many natural treasures together. It is simply incredible. "Don't be curious. When your strength reaches my level, you will naturally find that things that were difficult to do in the past will now become simple." The old man saw Yao Yan's curiosity and explained. Upon hearing this, Yao Yan bowed to the old man and asked, "Who are you?" "I forgot to tell you that I am the grand elder of Xiaodan Tower. My surname is Lin, but this grand elder is just a title. I have not been in charge of things for a long time. I took action this time because I was amazed by your talent." Elder Lin stroked his white beard and looked at Yao Yan with some appreciation in his eyes. He had seen many gifted young people over the past thousand years, but this was undoubtedly the first time someone had a talent as great as Yao Yan's. He possessed heavenly-level soul power when he was just in his early twenties. Although he was just a beginner, it was also extremely terrifying. After all, the difficulty of advancing soul power was far greater than that of fighting spirit. Most alchemists were already very successful if they could reach the spiritual realm and could try to refine eighth-grade pills. Heavenly realm… In theory, this is already the ticket to becoming a ninth-grade alchemy master. As for whether one can become a true ninth-grade alchemy master, it depends on whether one's own strength can reach the level of a Dou Sheng, because refining ninth-grade elixirs is completely different from refining eighth-grade elixirs, and the amount of heaven and earth essence that needs to be absorbed is even more massive. Without the strength of a Dou Sheng, the process cannot be sustained at all. Yao Yan’s talent in fighting spirit is equally strong, and even his physical body is incredibly strong. "Junior greets the Great Elder." Upon hearing this, Yao Yan understood and bowed respectfully. "No need to do that. I'm old now and don't care about these things anymore." Elder Lin smiled and raised his hand to support Yao Yan. An invisible force lifted him up. He continued, "Are you from the Yao Clan? Who is your teacher in the Yao Clan?" Yao Yan's heart tightened when he heard this. He knew very well that his teacher in the Yao Clan could not stand up to scrutiny, especially from a strong man like Elder Lin who had already entered the Fighting Saint level. If the other party wanted to investigate, he would definitely be able to find out everything about Yao Yan in the Yao Clan. He even knew some of the Dousheng from the Medicine Clan...
"I studied in the clan school for some time, and then became a disciple of the herbal farmer." Yao Yan did not dare to lie and could only tell the truth. "Herbalist?" There was some doubt in Elder Lin's eyes. Is there anyone called Medicine Farmer among the Medicine Clan's Fighting Saints? In his opinion, the teacher who could train such a disciple must also be a powerful Dou Sheng. Otherwise, how could Yao Yan escape easily from the medicine world after doing what he did? The control of bloodlines by the Dou Emperor families is quite strict. How could they let a child with strong bloodline power wander in the outside world? I thought about it. Elder Lin stopped thinking about this matter and said softly, "Xuan Kongzi has already told me about the Medicine Clan. If they come to trouble you, I can stop them for you. You don't have to worry about anything. I still have some face." Yao Yan did not doubt the face of a Dou Sheng at all. At this level, he rarely took action. Even the Soul Palace or the Soul Clan were extremely restrained in this regard. The battle between Douluo Saints is not like the battle between Douluo Lords. It is truly earth-shattering and can easily destroy a country or an area. If a strong man of this level were to act recklessly, Zhongzhou would be submerged. "Thank you, Great Elder!" Yao Yan said softly with a look of joy on his face. "Actually, there is no need for me to take action. If Yao Chen succeeds this time, he should be able to reach this level. He just lacked an opportunity in the past. If he was willing to join Danta back then, he would not have to wait until today." Elder Lin's gaze seemed to pass through many spaces and directly saw Yao Chen who was in seclusion. He spoke slowly with a hint of regret in his tone. Yao Chen was extremely talented, even in cultivation. Unfortunately, he was too free and uninhibited, loved freedom, and wasted too much time. If he had been willing to join Danta and become one of the three giants, the nearly four hundred years would have been enough for him to enter the realm of Fighting Saint. In terms of talent alone, the other party is even better than Xuan Kongzi and others. Unfortunately, sometimes choice is everything. Without the support of a big force, it is almost a dream to obtain the heavenly level skills on your own. Yao Yan had no doubts about what Elder Lin said. He stood obediently to one side and listened quietly. There was a pause. Elder Lin looked at Yao Yan and continued, "What do you think of the Yao Clan?" Yao Yan was silent for a moment, then gave his answer: "The Yao Clan has been very kind to me in raising me... My parents died back then, and without the Yao Clan's care, I probably wouldn't have grown up. Even my abilities are mostly from the Yao Clan." "Since you can see this clearly, there is no need for me to say anything to you. Your life has just begun. Don't let these things interfere with you." Elder Lin nodded and took out a purple-black jade slip from his ring and handed it to Yao Yan. "This is a scroll of soul training that can train the soul body. It is my gift to you." Yao Yan didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise. He took it with both hands and thanked him respectfully: "Thank you, Great Elder." “Practice well~” Elder Lin smiled. As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it. An invisible force of space instantly enveloped Yao Yan. The next moment, Yao Yan disappeared from the spot. Wait for them to leave. Elder Lin gave his evaluation: "You are worth looking forward to, little guy. I hope you can bring some surprises to this old man." …… Yao Yan only felt a flash before his eyes, and when he reappeared, he was already standing in the Dan Realm. He was stunned for a moment, then looked at the scroll in his hand with a smile on his face, thinking to himself, "As expected of the Great Elder of Dan Tower, he is generous when he makes a move." The soul skills that can be treasured by a Dou Sheng must be of high quality, especially since the other party knows that his soul level has entered the heavenly realm.
The martial arts that Hunxuzi had taught him back then was no longer good enough, and this volume of martial arts was just the right way to continue his success. Speaking of which, Hunxuzi is really unreliable. He smiled and shook his head, solemnly put the soul technique into the ring, then determined the direction and flew towards Xuan Yi's cottage in the forest. His figure flashed and disappeared into the sky. . . . . . . . . Danjie, a small courtyard in the bamboo forest. Yao Yan changed into Danta's unique clothing, a black and gold robe that highlighted his nobility. The badge with eight dan patterns on his chest further highlighted his identity. This was a badge that only an eighth-grade alchemist was qualified to wear, and the back of the badge also represented Danta. "Brother, you look so good in this dress!" Zi Yan said, clapping her hands with sparkling eyes. "It's really good... It looks better on young people than on those old men." Xuan Yi nodded on the side, looking at Yao Yan with more appreciation. As for Xuan Kongzi on the side, he was speechless after hearing Xuan Yi's words. "Ahem, Yaoyan, what are your plans next?" After a moment, he coughed lightly and asked. "I'll be in seclusion for a while. The Great Elder gave me a scroll of soul skills. I plan to practice it for a while. Once I succeed, I'll consider other things." After Yao Yan finished speaking, he looked at Zi Yan and reached out to rub her head. "Practice well, and when you are confident, you can try to subdue the Three Thousand Flames... But that big guy has a bad temper. If you are not strong enough, don't take the risk." Xuan Kongzi reminded. The Three Thousand Flames have existed in the starry sky above Shengdan City for thousands of years. The power it has accumulated is extremely terrifying. Once it erupts completely, even Xuan Kongzi will not be able to withstand it. In the past, the methods of subjugating people mostly relied on luck, depending on whether the Three Thousand Flames were willing to follow a person. I have to say, this method is quite stupid. "Yeah." Yao Yan nodded. After Xuan Kongzi finished explaining all this, he turned around and left. As the apparent boss of Danta, he had a lot of things to deal with in the past. Especially the appearance of Yao Yan, which had made Shengdan City a lot more lively recently, and many evil spirits had jumped out. "It's a good idea for you to stay in seclusion for a while. Wait until the storm calms down a little before going out." Xuan Yi looked at Yao Yan with gentle eyes and said softly. "I'll listen to Aunt Xuan." Yao Yan responded obediently. …… In the secret room. Yao Yan took out the Heavenly Demon Puppet. Now the Heavenly Demon Puppet had completely turned into dark gold. The power of thunder in its body had been completely digested. Its body had become extremely strong, and its skin had become elastic instead of being hard as before. However, its toughness was far beyond before. "boom!" Yao Yan clenched his fist and swung it out with all his strength, hitting the chest of the Heavenly Demon Puppet heavily. The terrifying force directly created energy in the surroundings. However, this punch did not hurt the Heavenly Demon Puppet at all. The dark golden puppet stood upright in place, as if mocking Yao Yan's powerlessness. "It's worthy of being a puppet that can fight against a Dou Zun. Its defense is really good." Yao Yan patted the Heavenly Demon Puppet with satisfaction, then sat down cross-legged and took out the soul technique given to him by Elder Lin. As the soul power spread over it, a soul practice method called "Tai Xuan Jing" came into his mind. It was not long, only about six thousand words, but each word was extremely mysterious, as if it could be imprinted into the soul. As he read more, Yao Yan's soul seemed to become more solid.
Time seemed to stop at this moment. It was unknown how much time had passed before Yao Yan came back to his senses. He blinked his eyes and looked at the bamboo slips in his hand, which had completely turned jade-colored. He was a little surprised and could not help but said, "This technique..." If it is said that Hunxuzi's skill is to help him refine spirit crystals, absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and nourish his soul and body. The "Tai Xuan Sutra" that Elder Lin gave him was to be practiced directly with the soul body. If it was practiced to perfection, one could even completely get rid of the physical body and exist in the world as a soul body, and even be reborn easily by borrowing a body. "Could this technique have been created by the old ancestor of Danta?" A strange look flashed in Yao Yan's eyes. If he remembered correctly, in the original novel, the ancestor of Danta liked to do this kind of thing of borrowing a body to be reborn. It was clearly a ninth-grade elixir that took shape, but he liked to use the dead fetus of a pregnant woman to experience the life of a human. The martial arts in front of him can also achieve this step. Yao Yan can completely abandon his current physical body and be reborn through a borrowed body. "You're thinking too far ahead... But this technique is really profound. Just reading it through can enhance your soul power." Yao Yan did not continue to guess about these useless things. He focused his mind and began to formally practice the technique. As his consciousness sank into the depths of his soul, the profound words of the Taixuan Sutra slowly emerged with his thoughts, and at the same time, the world seemed to become clearer. Simultaneously. A human figure floated out from Yao Yan's brows. Its appearance was exactly the same as Yao Yan's physical body. It sat cross-legged in the void, absorbing and exhaling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth... (End of this chapter)
