Hard Cultivation
On the crater of a volcano spewing thick smoke, Xiao Yan was cultivating the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations.
"The Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations, the First Transformation: The Red Lotus Transformation!"
An eerie crimson light separated from Xiao Yan's heart, bursting forth and then flowing into Xiao Yan meridians, causing Xiao Yan strength to surge.
"Peak of the Seven Star Dou Zong..."
A surge of violent Dou Qi flowed through Xiao Yan's meridians, and the sudden increase in strength caused an abnormal flush to appear on Xiao Yan's face.
It should be noted that Xiao Yan had only just entered the Four Star Dou Zong, and in just his first transformation, he directly rose to the peak of the Seven Star Dou Zong, which was almost a leap of four stars in strength!
"It's only the first transformation, so the damage to the body is negligible. If you hold on until your Dou Qi is exhausted, you'll only be weak for a few days at most."
After briefly assessing his body's condition, Xiao Yan concluded that this first transformation could be used as a regular power.
"The Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations, the Second Transformation: The Falling Heart Transformation!"
The invisible flames also separated and surged into the meridians.
With just one more Heavenly Flames, Xiao Yan's face instantly turned pale, and even his Dou Qi surging to the Nine Star Dou Ancestor was of no use.
The Burning Flame Valley Master always has a configuration of one Heavenly Flames and two Beast Flame. When they activate the second transformation, the Beast Flame completely submit to the Heavenly Flames, and they only need to withstand the impact of the flames.
However, Xiao Yan was different. Although the two different Heavenly Flames were regulated by the fighting Dou Qi of the Flame Mantra, they still clashed constantly in Xiao Yan's meridians, causing an explosion from time to time.
Xiao Yan exhaled a breath of turbid air, thinking of the Buddha's Rage Fire Cannon from before. With a thought, he covered every meridian with the fused flames, thereby resisting the burden that the two Heavenly Flames would place on his meridians.
"With so many Heavenly Flames fused together, it's really hard to come up with a name. Let's just call you Emperor Flame, since you're destined to become Di Yan Heavenly Flames."
The Deep Purple Flame flickered slightly, seemingly excited by Xiao Yan's expectations.
"With the protection of the Emperor Flame, this second transformation won't cause me any harm, and I can treat it as a regular procedure. Well, it's like I'm now a Nine Star Dou Ancestor."
"In that case, I wonder if the third transformation will be enough to break through to the Dou Zun?"
After dawdling for a while, Xiao Yan withdrew his Heavenly Flames, stopped the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations, and decided to take a break.
With Xiao Yan's current physique, he wouldn't suffer serious injuries from bearing Dou Qi at the Dou Zun level, but he was still slightly apprehensive about the side effects of the Xiao Yan Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations.
Without the protection of the Emperor Flame, just maintaining the second transformation would be enough to injure Xiao Yan. If he were in battle, every use of his Dou Qi would probably cause serious injuries, and he wouldn't be able to hold on for more than a few minutes.
As for the third transformation, the three different Heavenly Flames meet in the meridians... The scene is too beautiful for Xiao Yan to imagine.
"However, the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations does have some similarities with the Peerless Prison Body."
The Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations enhances strength by utilizing the power of the flames, while the Peerless Prison Body tempers the physical body with violent energy. Xiao Yan, who possesses Heavenly Flames, can activate both the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations and the Peerless Prison Body simultaneously.
Furthermore, when the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations reaches its second transformation, the impact between the two Heavenly Flames will cause a surge in pressure within Xiao Yan's meridians. The Emperor Flame, which envelops the two Heavenly Flames, can easily unleash tremendous power by leveraging this pressure.
After a short rest, Xiao Yan rallied and once again activated the first and second Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations, raising his strength to the Nine Star Dou Ancestor.
"It's quite easy to use the Peerless Prison Body in this state. Perhaps I can try to absorb the World Energy into my body?"
Without hesitation, Xiao Yan further activated his Peerless Prison Body, causing the World Energy within a hundred miles to instantly boil, transforming into Energy Tide that surged wildly into Xiao Yan's meridians.
Then it became nourishment for the two Heavenly Flames.
There was no other way; this was the Scorching Volcano Range, a smoking volcano surrounded by raging fire-attribute energy. Entering Xiao Yan's meridians was like delivering food to the Heavenly Flames.
In a normal environment, the mottled World Energy might not be devoured by the Heavenly Flames, but it would become purer under the tempering of the two Heavenly Flames and lose its original function.
Activating the Peerless Prison Body alone would have a noticeable effect, but it would certainly not be as effective as the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations.
However, the attack pattern of the Peerless Prison Body is still very useful. Xiao Yan uses the rampaging Heavenly Flames in his body as power, and every move he makes is a two-colored Buddha's Rage Fire Cannon with infinite power.
At the same time, releasing some of the Heavenly Flames will reduce the pressure inside Xiao Yan's body and lessen the damage caused by the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations.
"My fighting style doesn't quite match my fighting style..."
After making a slight complaint, Xiao Yan began to repeatedly use the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations and the Peerless Prison Body, gradually adapting to their impact on his body.
Three days later, Xiao Yan, still immersed in the Heavenly Flames, was awakened by a Soul Communication.
After a moment's thought, Xiao Yan realized it was Zi Yan calling out; she must have discovered something good.
The sparring match between Zi Yan and Tang Huo'er was naturally a foregone conclusion; even with Tang Huo'er using the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations, she could only barely avoid defeat.
This made the proud and arrogant Tang Huo'er determined to use her special ability, and she immediately asked her father for the Nine Dragon Thunder Gang Fire.
Burning Flame Valley immediately became busy, Xiao Yan naturally took Zi Yan away, venturing deep into the Scorching Volcano Range. Xiao Yan practiced his Dou Technique, Zi Yan searched for treasures everywhere.
Xiao Yan slowly withdrew his Heavenly Flames, spread his Heavenly Phoenix Wings, sensed Zi Yan's direction briefly, and then with a shake of his Heavenly Phoenix Wings, he flew away.
After traversing the endless volcanoes, Xiao Yan finally stopped in a relatively flat area.
This place is quite peculiar. The fire-attribute energy in the world still contains a strong sense of violence, but it seems to have encountered a great terror, curling up and hiding its violent intent deep within, becoming much less harmful.
As a result, sparse plants have grown on the ground, although they are all fire-attribute plants, which is much better than the barrenness of other places.
Xiao Yan landed beside Zi Yan, habitually ruffled her hair, and asked, "Is there something underground here?"
"I can vaguely sense something pressing down there, something... it's pressure from my bloodline, even fear, so it might be the remains of some incredible Magical Beast down there," Zi Yan said, her delicate body trembling slightly.
Xiao Yan comforted Zi Yan and hugged her, saying, "You should leave first. I'll dig this place open and take a look."
After saying that, Xiao Yan poured a Dou Qi of Dou Qi into the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame in his chest, summoning a ball of purple-gold flame to envelop himself. Then, looking at Zi Yan was tugging at his clothes, he simply poured another Dou Qi into protecting Zi Yan as well.
Under normal circumstances, the more familiar Emperor Flame is definitely better, but when facing unknown Magical Beast, it is natural to use the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame to restrain them.
