Advancement, Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower!

Advancement, Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower!

As Ruo Lin gazed at the Black Tower, over ten meters tall, a trace of suspicion flashed through her beautiful eyes.

Why did the design of this Black Tower bear some resemblance to Jia Nan Academy's Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower?

"Clan Leader Teng Shan, have all the facilities inside the Black Tower been arranged according to the blueprints?"

Mittel Tengshan nodded slightly. "More than a dozen Dou Ling Elders handled it personally. Their efficiency rivaled that of a thousand craftsmen. Nothing was left out."

"But what exactly is that Black Tower?"

Xiao Yan smiled faintly and walked toward the Black Tower, leaving behind only a cryptic sentence.

"A surprise."

A surprise?

Not only was Mittel Tengshan utterly baffled, but even Xiao Zhan and the others wore puzzled expressions.

However.

Xiao Yan had always been measured in his actions. After expending such vast manpower and resources, there was no way he could have worked for nothing.

Therefore.

They all silently followed behind Xiao Yan, waiting for the reveal.

The Black Tower had six levels, with sixteen rooms arranged in a circle on each floor.

Ruo Lin was secretly astonished. "Why is the layout inside so similar to the Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower as well?"

Arriving before the crystal sphere in the center, Xiao Yan smiled faintly and poured in the Fallen Heart Flame's Sub-fire.

"Buzz!"

Under the control of his Mental Strength, components forged from Meteorite Iron sprang from the pillar beneath the crystal sphere, enclosing it.

Immediately afterward.

Streams of energy formed from clusters of flame surged through the mechanisms in the pillar and flowed into every room.

"This is..."

Standing in one of the rooms, Xiao Yu discovered in shock that her Dou Qi was circulating at high speed! "My cultivation speed is actually increasing geometrically!" Xiao Zhan cried out as well.

"What?"

"That's impossible!"

Mittel Tengshan's aged face trembled, and even Zuo Xiu Hua, who had remained silent for a long time, rushed into a room in disbelief.

"Whoosh!"

Feeling their Dou Qi circulate several times faster than usual, the two Dou Wangs were filled with horror.

"Teng Shan, what is going on? I feel like my cultivation speed has increased severalfold!"

"I don't know either!"

"You don't know? Cut the crap! You provided both men and resources, and now you're telling me you don't know?"

Mittel Tengshan and Zuo Xiu Hua exchanged a glance, their shocked gazes slowly turning toward Xiao Yan.

Could this terrifying, peerless cultivation machine really be the work of this youth? "Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower!"

Ruo Lin's five incredulous words left Xiao Yu, Luo Bu, and the others dumbfounded.

"And it's gentler than Jia Nan Academy's Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower! Even if one cultivated inside it year after year, Fire Poison would not accumulate!"

As Ruo Lin circulated the Dou Qi within her body, she was overwhelmed by shock and disbelief.

The tiny Xiao Family of Wutan City had actually built a cultivation holy land even more astonishing than Jia Nan Academy's?! Impossible!

It had to be impossible!

"The Xiao Family is going to rise!" Mittel Tengshan and Zuo Xiu Hua stared blankly at Xiao Yan.

With such a cultivation holy land in their grasp, even the deeply established Misty Cloud Sect could hardly compare.

"Yan'er, this..."

The stunned Xiao Zhan was about to ask a question, but when he saw Xiao Yan spreading his hands at him, he immediately shut his mouth.

"Sixteen rooms per floor, nearly a hundred rooms across six floors. If they were rented out..."

Thinking of the enormous profits the Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower could bring, Xiao Zhan's heart churned like a stormy sea! "Xiao Yan, may I use this Black Tower as well?" Mittel Tengshan asked expectantly.

"Of course."

Xiao Yan nodded slightly. "The Black Tower operates without rest, day and night. Even Dou Wang experts can only endure the pure Dou Qi pouring forth from it for three hours each day."

"I will reserve a room on the top floor specifically for Senior's use."

Sure enough, under the infusion of Dou Qi even purer than that of Jia Nan Academy's Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower, Xiao Yu's face flushed red after only a brief moment, forcing her to withdraw.

"The cultivation effect is too strong! I feel that if I use it for another three days, I'll be able to break through to the next realm!"

As soon as Xiao Yu said this, every Xiao Family member who had followed along became feverish with excitement.

"Young Clan Leader, what must we pay to use the Black Tower?"

Xiao Yan shook his head with a smile. "You are my clansmen. This upgraded Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower was built for you in the first place, so you may use it freely."

Unfortunately, the Sub-fire's acceleration effect was useless to him. Otherwise, he would have wanted to try it as well.

"Long live the Young Clan Leader!"

At Xiao Yan's soft laugh, cheers immediately erupted throughout the Black Tower.

"Oh, right, Clan Leader Teng Shan. The Mite'er Family also contributed to the construction of this Black Tower, so you may use it free of charge as well. The Dou Ling Elders who participated in its construction will pay half price."

"Boom!"

The Mite'er Family's Elders erupted into an uproar, thrilled beyond measure.

Xiao Yan glanced at Zhou Yuan and Zhou Cang. "Oh, right, you two as well. Break through to Dou Ling soon, so you can protect the Xiao Family Juniors during their training."

Zhou Yuan and Zhou Cang froze for a moment before intense delight flooded their faces.

Ever since joining the Xiao Family, the two of them had already enjoyed quite a few medicinal pills.

And now they could even use the Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower for free! Being servants of the Xiao Family really wasn't so bad, the two thought shamefully.

Zuo Xiu Hua opened his mouth and revealed a bitter smile.

At last, he understood why the ever-shrewd Mittel Tengshan had been willing to risk his life against him for a mere Xiao Family.

It was because of Xiao Yan!

There was a natural charm about this youth. So long as one forged a connection with him, even a dog might be able to strut sideways through the Jia Ma Empire in the future! "Senior Zuo, the Xiao Family is weak and isolated. Such a treasure will inevitably attract covetous eyes. Would you be willing to remain in the Black Tower's cultivation chambers and stand guard for the Xiao Family?"

"Xiao Yan has refined a large batch of medicinal pills and stored them in the warehouse. You may take them as you please. I only hope that when the Xiao Family faces danger, you will lend us a hand and help the Xiao Family overcome its troubles."

Xiao Yan clasped his hands to Zuo Xiu Hua without being either servile or overbearing, startling Zuo Xiu Hua into hurriedly returning the gesture.

"Young Master Xiao Yan is too courteous!"

Zuo Xiu Hua's heart was filled with bitterness. For the first time, he truly came to admire the youth before him.

With just a few words, Xiao Yan had actually made an old Dou Wang who had weathered countless trials feel an impulse to willingly die for him.

Zuo Ya, Zuo Ya, you can be considered to have died for a worthy cause. Zuo Xiu Hua shook his head inwardly.

With Xiao Yan's methods of winning people over, if he still harbored thoughts of revenge, the ones greeting him next time might be the other Dou Wangs of the Jia Ma Empire, or even Dou Huangs.

With over a hundred descendants, sacrificing the Zuo Family for one worthless grandson would be too foolish.

Besides.

Zuo Ya had merely been an insignificant one among his many descendants. Otherwise, he would not have initially sent only Zhou Yuan and Zhou Cang to Wutan City to seize people.

In the end, he had only wanted to preserve his dignity as a Dou Wang.

"Instructor Ruo Lin, we're staying in Wutan City. We won't be going to Jia Nan Academy!"

"Me too!"

Xiao Mei and Xiao Ning spoke apologetically, making the already despairing Ruo Lin feel even more like weeping without tears!
