"Waaaah! Xiao Li, you're back!"
A purple figure rocket-headbutted him, causing Xiao Li to stumble and almost cough up a mouthful of old blood.
"Wuwuwu, Xiao Li, without you, I've been so miserable. I want to eat Elixirs, wuwuwu." It turned out to be the gluttonous Dragon, Zi Yan. This girl had long since finished all the Elixirs Xiao Li had given her.
She had gone back to eating Medicinal Materials. A while ago, Zi Yan ate random Medicinal Materials, and she didn't know what she ate, but after eating it, her stomach hurt for several days. Thinking of those bitter days, Zi Yan eagerly awaited Xiao Li's return.
"Little girl reached Fifth Rank?" Xiao Li stroked Zi Yan's head. The aura of a Fifth Rank Demonic Beast on the little girl at this moment couldn't be faked.
"En en, Xiao Li, I want to eat Elixirs, I want to eat Elixirs!" Zi Yan hugged Xiao Li's arm and shook it.
"Alright, alright, I'll refine them for you right away. First, here's a bottle of Dou Ling Pills to satisfy your craving."
Xiao Li handed Zi Yan a bottle of Dou Ling Pills, which contained about five Dou Ling Pills.
Without thinking, Zi Yan directly opened the bottle and poured them into her mouth.
"Hey, hey, hey! You can't eat so many at once!" Xiao Li was startled and tried to stop her, but it was too late.
After eating, Zi Yan licked her lips: "Delicious, so much energy, so comfortable."
Zi Yan then fell asleep due to the excessive energy.
"Sigh~ So peaceful." Xiao Li sighed, then carried Zi Yan on his back and walked towards the Grand Elder's office.
Grand Elder's office,
"What's wrong with this girl? Did she eat random Medicinal Materials again?" Su Qian looked at Zi Yan in Xiao Li's arms and asked anxiously.
Xiao Li shook his head: "It's nothing, she just ate too many Dou Ling Pills and is full."
Su Qian: "How many did she eat?"
Xiao Li: "Five."
Su Qian:... Su Qian didn't know what to say. He knew about Zi Yan's craving. Ever since Xiao Li left the Academy, Zi Yan had run out of Elixirs and had not spared the Alchemy department's Elixirs.
If she couldn't eat Elixirs, she would go and get Medicinal Materials to eat. But there was no other way; Zi Yan needed to consume a large amount of high-energy Elixirs or Heaven And Earth Treasure to improve her cultivation.
Su Qian looked at Xiao Li: "What are you doing back, kid? Now that you also have the cultivation of a Dou Emperor, you're truly impressive."
"The Headmaster asked me to participate in the Pill Gathering and said to get a good ranking, otherwise he'd make me eat his fists. I had no choice but to go. Coincidentally, my Alchemy has reached Seventh Grade, and I can refine Intermediate Rank 7 Pills.
So I came to you for some Medicinal Materials to refine some zong yuan pills."
Xiao Li spread his hands and said.
"Oh? You're already a Seventh-Rank Alchemist? The younger generation is truly formidable, truly formidable. Do you want this old man to bring people to help you with the Pill Lightning?"
Xiao Li becoming a Seventh-Rank Alchemist was within Su Qian's expectations. After all, Xiao Li was able to refine Peak Rank 6 Break-Sect Pills before, and now his cultivation had reached Five-Star Dou Emperor, so refining Rank 7 Pills was reasonable.
"No need, the Headmaster gave me a good item. It's excellent for resisting Pill Lightning." Xiao Li said with a smile... Half a day later,
Inner Academy central area,
Xiao Li was going to start refining Rank 7 Pills here. Most of the Elders in Canaan Academy had come. Being able to witness the birth of a Rank 7 Pill was considered a worthwhile experience in this life.
"Elder Xiao is getting more and more powerful. Fire Elder, what do you think?" An Elder looked at Fire Elder.
"This is a Genius. How can mediocre people like us be qualified to discuss others?" Fire Elder said indifferently.
Now, Fire Elder had already broken through to Dou Emperor. With the improvement of his cultivation, his Alchemy had also made some progress, and the success rate of refining Rank 5 Pills had greatly increased.
"By the way, what kind of Elixir is Elder Xiao preparing to refine this time?"
"I heard it's the zong yuan pill."
"zong yuan pill? Old Huo, I don't know much about Elixirs, can you explain it?"
Fire Elder: "The zong yuan pill, an Intermediate Rank 7 Pill, its efficacy is actually similar to the Dou Ling Pill and Huangji Pill. It can increase a Dou Zong's cultivation by one star.
After increasing cultivation by one star, the remaining medicinal power will further enhance the Dou Zong's spatial comprehension. Everyone knows that at the Dou Zong Realm, one begins to comprehend the Power of Space.
And to break through to Dou Venerate, the comprehension of the Power of Space is essential. Many Peak Dou Zong powerhouses lack the comprehension of the Power of Space.
It can be said that this zong yuan pill will have some effect on breaking through to Dou Venerate in the future. Sometimes, this bit of comprehension will play a huge role!"
After listening to Fire Elder's explanation, several Dou Emperor Elders who had taken the Huangji Pill felt deeply. The one-time body strengthening effect provided by the Huangji Pill was excellent for them.
The spatial comprehension of this zong yuan pill would probably be even more precious for Dou Zongs!
Xiao Li stood on the high platform, slowly opening his eyes. Canaan Academy had prepared six sets of zong yuan pill Materials. As expected, being a large power was good; one didn't need to search for Medicinal Materials and could just refine Elixirs.
Little did he know that the Medicinal Materials Xiao Li needed for this Alchemy session had almost emptied the Scripture Pavilion. The Medicinal Materials collected by Canaan Academy since its establishment for so many years were almost all used up.
However, if these Medicinal Materials could be refined into Elixirs, it wasn't a loss. After all, if Medicinal Materials were gone, they could be acquired again, but improving cultivation might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Duang —
Xiao Li's Fiery Cloud Cauldron emerged. Its ancient fiery cloud patterns symbolized its history.
With a grab, Xiao Li threw the zong yuan pill's Medicinal Materials into the Medicine Cauldron, then a pitch-black flame appeared in his hand and was thrown into the Medicine Cauldron to calcine the Medicinal Materials.
"Hmm? What kind of flame is this? Didn't Elder Xiao use the Fallen Heart Flame? How did it turn into a black flame?"
"Could it be a Demonic Beast Flame?"
"Impossible! A Demonic Beast Flame definitely doesn't have such a powerful aura."
"A black flame? There are only a few black flames on the strange fire ranking list. Which one is this?"
"Let's wait and see."
Xiao Li was oblivious to the Elders' confusion. He entered an Alchemy state, his spirit exceptionally focused, with only fire control, Medicinal Material extraction, and Pill condensation processes in his mind.
The Yin Flame of the Yin Yang Twin Flames possessed destructive power; anyone who touched it would instantly turn to ashes.
In terms of Medicinal Material extraction, if the fire power was not controlled, the Medicinal Materials could easily be burned to ashes.
But precisely because of the immense power of the Yin Flame, when Xiao Li extracted Medicinal Materials, as long as he controlled the power of the Yin Flame, the speed of Medicinal Material extraction would be much faster!
In just half an hour, the Yin Flame had refined the Medicinal Materials into Medicinal Liquid. Then Xiao Li changed flames, put away the dangerous pitch-black flame, and instead used a gentle white flame containing vitality.
"This is the Yin Yang Twin Flames! One flame with two colors, possessing both life and death powers!" Su Qian exclaimed.
Although the Yin Yang Twin Flames ranked twenty-first on the strange fire ranking list, it was extremely rare. In the entire strange fire ranking list, in terms of rarity, the Yin Yang Twin Flames definitely ranked high.
Mang Tianchi sat in the distance, looking at the Yin Yang Twin Flames in Xiao Li's hand and smiled faintly: "Bai Lie was indeed right, this kid is really lucky to have devoured the Yin Yang Twin Flames of the Fallen Heart Flame.
Your Yin Yang Twin Flames will someday become a symbol, just like that old fellow Yao Chen's Bone Chilling Flame."
"Condense!"
Xiao Li controlled the Yang Flame and began to condense the Pill. After obtaining the Yin Yang Twin Flames, Xiao Li made some changes in his Alchemy techniques.
He refined Elixirs by changing flames, using Yin Flame to extract Medicinal Materials and Yang Flame to condense the Pill. This not only saved the consumption of Dou Qi and Soul Power, but the Yang Flame had an extremely high success rate for Pill condensation, making it very easy to refine top-grade Elixirs.
This was Xiao Li's self-created fire control technique, which he named "Yin-Yang Fire Control Art." As it was still in its initial stages, the name was also somewhat simple, to be perfected later.
