Shi Yan's eyes widened. Going to a Level 8 Demonic Beast's lair? Was he trying to die?

His scrawny arms and legs wouldn't even be enough to fill its teeth, would they?

This wasn't about suffering some hardship; it was about throwing his life away!

"What are you thinking? I'm just going to make it behave for the next three days,"

Fang Ziwei saw through Shi Yan's thoughts with a single glance.

Sending a Second Tier Martial Artist to face a Level 8 Demonic Beast, how was that possible?

"Uh, thank you, Teacher!"

Gratitude surged in Shi Yan's heart. No wonder Fang Ziwei looked so tired; she had been fighting a Level 8 Demonic Beast.

She had only just accepted him as a disciple, and she was already risking her life for him. How could he not be grateful?

One had to know, the higher the level of a Demonic Beast, the stronger it was. Below the same tier, in a one-on-one fight, Demonic Beasts were usually the victors.

After all, they possessed immense strength and tough hides, far beyond human reach.

"Shi Yan, since you are my disciple, tell me about your situation, for example, your Supernatural Ability."

Fang Ziwei said after a moment of thought. The information she had only indicated that Shi Yan's Supernatural Ability was D-Class Biological Ignite.

Although later everyone speculated that her Supernatural Ability had mutated and might be more than S-Class, only Shi Yan himself could reveal the specifics.

"Teacher, my Supernatural Ability is Southern Bright Blazing Fire, SSS-Class."

Shi Yan spoke without a second's hesitation.

Hiding his strength? That didn't exist.

He came to Magic Martial University for cultivation resources. If he hid his talent, who would give him resources?

Given that Fang Ziwei had gone to fight a Level 8 Demonic Beast for him, he shouldn't hide anything from her.

"What!"

Even Fang Ziwei, who had seen much and lived to a ripe old age, was so shocked that she abruptly stood up.

SSS-Class!

The tenth! Since the spiritual energy resurgence, the tenth person to possess an SSS-Class Supernatural Ability!

Heavens, Magic Martial University had truly struck gold!

Now she finally understood why Po had agreed so readily when she went to Extreme Martial Arts Hall to get the Breathing Technique back then.

Furthermore, Po had improved that Cultivation Method in advance.

This meant that Po had known about Shi Yan's supreme talent all along!

Thinking of this, she realized she had gotten an incredible bargain.

After all, with Extreme Martial Arts Hall's vast wealth and formidable strength, they could have easily snatched Shi Yan away, and he wouldn't have needed to attend any university.

Extreme Martial Arts Hall had the capability to cultivate Shi Yan into a master of a generation, or even the next Po.

"Good, very good, excellent!" If they hadn't been in her office, Fang Ziwei would have burst out laughing. "This is my disciple!"

"I'm very happy that you're willing to tell me, Teacher."

"It wasn't in vain that I arranged some things for you. Let's set off now."

Fang Ziwei was somewhat impatient. With a flick of her hand, the two of them appeared in mid-air.

Before Shi Yan could react, he was lifted into the air by a powerful force.

Unlike Zhang Yunya's flying car, this time he was truly flying in the sky, with an extremely wide field of vision. His chest felt as if it were torn open by an invisible hand, expanding to be as vast as the sky and the earth.

The wind roared past his ears, and clouds were constantly trampled underfoot. The exhilarating feeling of soaring through the heavens made him unable to resist letting out a long cry.

Fang Ziwei said nothing, simply stood with her hands behind her back, carrying Shi Yan as they sped along.

After about two hours, the two of them descended from the sky.

Dimness began to replace the light from above.

Shi Yan didn't know where they were, only that he had entered a forest with ancient, towering trees.

As soon as he landed, his hair instinctively stood on end, and his alertness surged.

He had ventured deep into the mountains and forests with Zhang Yunya before, and it felt the same – a dense aura of Demonic Beasts, with Demonic Beasts that could kill him.

Every movement seemed to be watched by Demonic Beasts.

Can't find the book title? Try searching for the author, maybe the name has changed!

"Your alertness is good, but you don't need to worry about it for now."

Fang Ziwei said calmly, then let out a soft shout.

Instantly, the tense and oppressive atmosphere vanished.

Shi Yan could even hear the sounds of Demonic Beasts fleeing, along with the smell of fresh urine and feces.

"Let's go."

Fang Ziwei walked ahead, and the weeds and trees in her path continuously fell away, clearing a small trail.

Shi Yan followed behind, marveling at the sight.

Is this what an Eighth Tier Warrior is capable of?

After about ten minutes, the two stopped in front of a stone cave.

The cave was very large, and the ground and walls outside were incredibly smooth, as if they had been rubbed by something immense over countless years.

"You have a rare dual-ability physique. I brought you here to reactivate your other ability."

Fang Ziwei's words stunned Shi Yan.

Dual-ability? Does that mean...

He thought of his Biological Ignite.

After obtaining the Southern Bright Blazing Fire, his Biological Ignite had disappeared.

He had assumed people could only possess one ability and hadn't thought much of it.

According to Fang Ziwei, will the Biological Ignite reappear?

After speaking, Fang Ziwei entered the stone cave.

Shi Yan followed her in.

It was dim inside, but surprisingly dry. Shi Yan also detected a peculiar, fishy smell.

The deeper they went, the stronger the fishy smell became, and the hotter the air grew.

Another ten minutes passed, and the darkness receded, replaced by a faint light.

The air temperature had reached an almost unbearable level.

Keep in mind that Shi Yan himself possessed a fire element ability, giving him an abnormal resistance to high temperatures.

If even he felt uncomfortable, it was clear how high the temperature was.

After walking dozens more meters, a scene that shocked Shi Yan unfolded before him.

It was a massive cavern. In the center lay a pool, about fifty meters in diameter, filled with churning, orange-red lava. The heat waves emanated from this lava pool.

But what truly shocked Shi Yan wasn't the lava, but the colossal corpse floating within it.

It was a giant snake covered in fiery red scales, bobbing in the lava.

It was at least forty meters long, its body submerged in the pool, while its severed head rested on the shore.

He could even see blood flowing from the snake's head into the lava pool.

Despite the intense heat, the snake's blood hadn't dried; it remained hot and vibrant.

"Teacher, did you fight with this thing?" Shi Yan murmured, recalling Fang Ziwei mentioning an Eighth Tier Demonic Beast teacher...

"Yes. Take off your clothes and get in," Fang Ziwei nodded. "The Fire Scale Python and the Lava Fire are perfect for activating your Biological Ignite, and they can even help it evolve."

Looking at the bubbling lava, Shi Yan shivered, but he complied.

He could already smell the medicinal fragrance emanating from the pool, indicating Fang Ziwei had made preparations.

Besides, as long as he activated the Southern Bright Blazing Fire, the lava's heat wouldn't be able to harm him.

Seconds later, naked and gritting his teeth, he jumped into the lava pool.

As expected, the terrifying heat was still present, threatening to destroy his body.

Fortunately, he was prepared. He instantly activated his Southern Bright Blazing Fire.

White flames surged, instantly isolating him from the lava. The intense heat couldn't even approach his body, and his skin temperature returned to normal.

But in the very next second, Fang Ziwei's words rendered him completely stunned.

"Do not use your abilities!"
