White Robe Purple Hair Girl

When Xiao Yuan followed Lin Xiuya to a dense forest on the Back Mountain near the Inner Academy, three streaks of light quickly flew out.

"I knew this kid would be alright!"

Yan Hao laughed heartily, his face beaming with joy.

"Yes, we can all breathe a sigh of relief now that Junior Brother Xiao Yuan is back safe and sound!"

The young man in yellow smiled and nodded.

"It's good that you're alright!"

Han Yue's tightly furrowed brows relaxed. Seeing that Xiao Yuan's complexion was still rosy, although his breathing was a little weak, she felt much relieved. It seemed that Xiao Yuan had not been injured and was just a little weak because of using a secret technique!

"Hehe, you all underestimate Junior Brother Xiao Yuan. He not only got rid of the Snow Demon Sky Ape, but also obtained some Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid!"

Lin Xiuya smiled and said this.

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in surprise.

They even doubted if they had heard correctly! What did it mean that they not only got rid of the Snow Demon Sky Ape, but also obtained the Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid? Was that even possible?

For a moment, the group looked at each other in bewilderment.

However, when Xiao Yuan took out the jade bottle from his Storage Ring, opened it, and let the rich fragrance waft out, everyone's eyes widened.

Although they had never seen Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid before, they immediately understood that the bottle must Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid! "Junior Brother Xiao Yuan, how did you do that?"

Yan Hao asked, his face full of doubt.

"I just used some special methods. This Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid is divided into six portions. Each of you senior students will take one portion, and I'll take two portions. I'm sure you senior students won't have any objections, right?"

Xiao Yuan asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the group of people who had initially given up hope on the Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid exchanged glances. Then Lin Xiuya spoke up, saying, "Of course. It would be reasonable for Junior Brother Xiao Yuan to take it all without telling us. But since you're willing to share with us, we won't take advantage of you for nothing. If Junior Brother Xiao Yuan needs our help with anything in the Inner Academy, just let us know!"

Yan Hao and the young man in yellow nodded in agreement.

Han Yue's usually aloof eyes softened noticeably when she looked at Xiao Yuan.

Clearly, she was beginning to develop some feelings for Xiao Yuan.

"Hehe, that would be perfect!"

Xiao Yuan nodded with a smile upon hearing this, and then used his Dou Qi to take out the Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid from the jade bottle. Under the gaze of the other four people, he divided it evenly into six portions and put them into six jade bottles.

After each of the five people put away their share, they dispersed and returned to the Inner Academy.

Xiao Yuan returned to the Lion Heart Society in the evening.

However, apart from Wu Hao, who spent all his time in the arena, the other three girls seemed to still be cultivating in the Heavenly Flame Training Pagoda, and it was unknown when they would return.

Although Wu Hao's strength has improved recently, he obviously knows how incredible Xiao Yuan's combat power is, so he did not ask to spar.

If the strength is similar, then it can be called a friendly spar. If the difference is too great, then there's no point in sparring; it's just a matter of feeding each other moves.

Since he didn't know how long it would take Xiao Yan to successfully cultivate the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame, Xiao Yuan didn't wait. He placed a bottle of diluted Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid and a small bottle of the original liquid in a hidden spot in Xiao Yan's room, leaving his Soul Imprint on them. The next day, Xiao Yuan went directly into the sixth floor of the Heavenly Flame Training Pagoda, into the Fire Energy Training Room that once belonged to Yao Sheng, who was ranked seventeenth.

Now, Xiao Yuan's Fire Energy is extremely abundant. In addition, with the protection of the Heavenly Flames, he is not afraid of the Fire Poison left by the heart fire. Therefore, Xiao Yuan is like a fish in water in the Heavenly Flame Training Pagoda.

In addition, with High-grade Earth-tier Cultivation Method Demon Thunder Mirror, even if he doesn't cultivate a fire-attribute technique, his cultivation speed is still much faster than that of ordinary people.

Therefore, even though Xiao Yuan needed all five of his Qi Mansion to be filled with Dou Qi to advance, his cultivation speed was still terrifyingly fast.

In just two months, he directly advanced to the eight- Dou Ling level!

Such a terrifying speed of cultivation is probably enough to make everyone in the Inner Academy feel ashamed.

However, cultivation requires a balance between work and rest. After Xiao Yuan broke through to the eighth- Dou Ling, he took out the Fire Crystal Card.

Then, he took out the original essence of the Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid from his Storage Ring, hesitated for a moment, and then poured a drop into his mouth and swallowed it.

If an ordinary person dared to do this, there would only be one outcome—death by exploding body.

However, Xiao Yuan's physical condition was quite strong, and with the opening of the Qi Mansion in his five internal organs, his organs had a stronger capacity to withstand stress and absorbed energy faster. Naturally, he could try the most primitive but most effective method: swallowing it! The room was filled with the unique and mellow aroma of the Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid. The pure energy condensed from the power of the earth burst forth in Xiao Yuan's body.

Because it was taken internally, the energy spread outwards from the inside out. At first, Xiao Yuan felt a warm sensation in his stomach, as if he had drunk a bowl of hot porridge.

But before long, the energy increased, and a burning sensation began to slowly appear.

Since the Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid was originally the color of jade, Xiao Yuan's internal organs were gradually stained with the same jade color, making them appear exceptionally strange.

As the energy spread, Xiao Yuan's bones, meridians, and muscles were gradually imbued with an emerald-like color.

However, by this point, the medicinal effect was somewhat insufficient.

So, with his eyes slightly closed, Xiao Yuan decisively took out the Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid and gulped it down from the bottle.

Boom! Abundant energy exploded within Xiao Yuan's body. Even with Xiao Yuan's physique, which was as powerful as a Xiao Yuan beast, he couldn't withstand it and trembled slightly. Veins bulged on his forehead, and streams of energy surged erratically beneath his skin. As they surged, his skin bulged with lines that moved in all directions, resembling tiny Xiao Yuan hiding beneath his skin, which looked quite terrifying.

What followed was a throbbing pain from the inside out, a feeling almost like being filled with energy by Medusa.

It's going to explode!

Therefore, even though his body was quite ferocious and terrifying at the moment, Xiao Yuan's mind was entirely focused on his own body, guiding that enormous energy to cleanse his internal organs, muscles, bones, and meridians.

At the same time, the throbbing pain gradually turned into a stinging pain. Xiao Yuan could almost clearly feel that every cell in his body seemed to be absorbing energy and undergoing a transformation.

His body was like a giant furnace, constantly refining everything within it.

During this process, Xiao Yuan vaguely sensed that something inside his body was about to appear.

However, he didn't have much focus to pay attention to these things, and he even had to summon his Heavenly Flames to assist in the absorption and refining of energy.

As time went by, Xiao Yuan's internal organs, bones, and meridians became strangely transparent. Even under Xiao Yuan's mental gaze, one could vaguely see the rapidly churning bone marrow within his bones. His entire body seemed to have become semi-transparent. At this moment, if someone stood in front of Xiao Yuan, they could probably see through his face, layer by layer, to the wall behind his head!

This level of marrow cleansing and bone tempering was truly unbearable. Even Xiao Yuan was almost at his breaking point. If it weren't for his powerful soul force, which could restrain the uncontrollable energy within his body, he would probably become the first person in the Jia Nan Academy's history to experience a body explosion during cultivation! He didn't feel the need to earn such a reputation! Pain, nothing but pain, was the word Xiao Yuan's body was constantly conveying. However, he had no choice but to endure the torment. But amidst the suffering, the only thing that brought him some comfort was that he could clearly feel powerful energy emanating from the burning pain spreading throughout his body. He discovered that after the heat, his bone marrow, bones, meridians, cells, muscles, and so on were all undergoing a transformative change! Fortunately, this pain was stable and continuous, so gradually, Xiao Yuan was also numb from the pain. He simply calmed his mind and let the enormous energy transform his body. Under this burning pain, his physical fitness also began to improve steadily!

The burning pain inside his body had subsided considerably. After a long time, the burning pain finally faded away. As the pain disappeared, Xiao Yuan's mind, which had been sinking deep into his heart, suddenly cleared up. He immediately scanned his body and was pleasantly surprised to find that the multicolored hues that had filled his body had completely disappeared. His bones, meridians, and other parts of his body were faintly glowing, looking like white jade. It seemed that they contained boundless power.

The awakening of the mind is like a key; instantly, the previously silent body begins to function like a sophisticated machine, starting its first operation after its transformation.

"Boom!"

A low, muffled sound echoed within his body. Xiao Yuan stared in astonishment at the enormous energy that suddenly surged from every corner of his body, momentarily lost in thought.

While Xiao Yuan was distracted, the massive streams of pure energy actively surged into his meridians. In the past, such a surge of energy would have caused his meridians to swell and ache. However, now, as the energy surged in, his meridians expanded and contracted with remarkable resilience, taking in all the massive energy without causing Xiao Yuan the slightest pain.

This energy was extremely vast, yet surprisingly pure. Its purity meant that Xiao Yuan no longer needed to refine it. And for some reason, this energy offered Xiao Yuan no resistance whatsoever; it was as easy as if he were controlling his own arm.

The immense energy circulated along the meridians of the Demon Thunder Mirror. After one cycle, it surged into the five Qi Mansion with a thunderous roar, like a flash flood.

With such a massive influx of energy, the Dou Qi within the five Qi Mansion also began to rise rapidly! Xiao Yuan could clearly feel that the Dou Qi stored in his Qi Mansion was multiplying, and at this rate, breaking through to the Nine-Star Dou Ling was just around the corner!

Xiao Yuan was not about to let such an opportunity slip by. After estimating the energy in his body, he made a decisive decision and took another small sip of Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid.

Whoosh! The newly entered Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid also burst forth with extremely powerful energy, but this time, Xiao Yuan did not feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he was able to savor the mellow and sweet taste.

With the relentless influx of energy, Xiao Yuan advanced almost unstoppable, directly reaching the Nine-Star Dou Ling level!

Feeling the various changes within his body, Xiao Yuan took a deep breath. He knew that in this instant, he had broken through to the eighth star and truly become a Nine-Star Dou Ling. Just one more step and he would be able to enter the Dou Wang Stage! Thinking back to a few years ago, he was just an ordinary young man from a small town with no Dou Qi at all. But now, he was only one step away from becoming Dou Wang expert, revered by all in the Jia Ma Empire!

Although Xiao Yuan didn't encounter any bottlenecks in advancing to the Dou Wang, the energy required was incredibly terrifying. According to his estimation, if he continued to cultivate in the room ranked seventeenth on the sixth floor, it would take at least two months of arduous training before he could break through to the Dou Wang.

However, since he advanced to the first star level by absorbing the energy of the Earth Core Body Tempering Fluid, and considering that his energy was saturated and his Dou Qi might become unstable, Xiao Yuan did not plan to continue his seclusion until the Strong Ranking Tournament.

His original plan was to leave seclusion and practice some Dou Technique. He had been in a hurry on the road before, and although he had switched to practicing a set of earth-rank Wind Attribute Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills given to him by the Yao Lao, his proficiency was still insufficient. He would take advantage of this time to familiarize himself with all the Dou Technique he had, so that he could use them skillfully when he encountered strong enemies in the future, so as not to be caught out by others.

After all, the day when the ungrateful Big Corpse Brother invades Jia Nan Academy is not far off.

Then, I'll have to have a good chat with him about our feelings! After stopping the circulation of his internal energy, Xiao Yuan slowly brought his mind to the surface and slowly opened his eyes. However, what came into view was a girl in white. She had long, light purple hair, extremely fair and delicate cheeks, and a beautiful, sculpted appearance that made people feel fond of her. Her pair of large, dark, and bright eyes sparkled with curiosity.

However, Xiao Yuan dodged to the side almost instantly.

Because the white-clad girl's delicate red lips were only less than three fingers' width away from his own mouth!

"What are you doing!"

Xiao Yuan stared in surprise at the white-clad girl who had appeared in his cultivation room without warning and seemed to have "ulterior motives" towards him, and asked in a terrified voice.
