Return to the Underground Magma World

From the moment he first entered the Underground Magma World, Xiao Yan forged a grudge against the Flame Lizard Clan.

Among them, the two Semi-Saint Fire Lizard, in particular, caused him a lot of trouble.

In the months before the Ancient Clan sent him the Dou Saint Skeleton and the Ninth-Rank Magical Beast Blood Essence, he went down into the Earth Core Magma World several times and killed many Dou Venerate- level Fire Lizard.

Otherwise, his cultivation level could not have risen to the fourth level of Dou Venerate in such a short period of time.

The amount of energy required for a cultivation level of several stars in the Dou Zun Realm is self-evident. It's only because the Dou Venerate Fire Lizard's Crimson Orb could be perfectly absorbed by him that he could improve so much.

At the same time, he didn't waste the essence, blood, bones, or flesh of the Dou Venerate Fire Lizard.

The essence and blood were directly devoured using the Devouring Spirit Body Breaking Art, while the bones and flesh were refined into the Myriad Beast Pill, which was also used to enhance physical strength.

Currently, his cultivation level is only at the fourth level of Dou Venerate, but his physical strength has already reached the level of the Six-Star Dou Venerate, meaning that he can directly confront Six-Star Dou Venerate expert simply by relying on his physical body.

Such a significant improvement in just a few months would naturally satisfy most people.

But Xiao Yan knew clearly that if it weren't for those two Semi-Saint Fire Lizard blocking his way, he could have hunted down all the Dou Venerate Fire Lizard, and his cultivation level and physical strength could have increased even more.

So he had a long-standing grudge against those two Semi-Saint Fire Lizard, and they disliked each other and wanted to kill each other.

Before Yao Lao was resurrected, he could escape from the Semi-Saint Fire Lizard by relying on the Ancient Character Token and other means of survival, but he could not complete the hunt.

Now that the Yao Lao has been resurrected, there is naturally no need to endure it any longer.

Just as Xiao Yan was lost in thought about when to go to the Underground Magma World, Feng Xian had already left the main hall.

After Feng Xian left, Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan, flipped his wrist, and Bone Spirit Cold Flame surged from his palm.

"Yan'er, your master has been resurrected and no longer needs this Bone Spirit Cold Flame as a vessel for my soul."

"You need it now more than ever. I will extract it from your body, and you can absorb it," the Yao Lao said earnestly.

Xiao Yan pressed Yao Lao's hand and shook his head, saying, "Teacher, there's no rush."

"Even if you are now Two-Star Dou Saint, removing the Heavenly Flames will still have some impact."

"Before that, I'd like you to accompany me to that Underground Magma World, teacher, to deal with those two Semi-Saint Fire Lizard."

Yao Lao understood Xiao Yan's meaning and put away the Bone Spirit Cold Flame: "That's fine then. I'll accompany you to that Underground Magma World first."

Xiao Yi Xian, listening nearby, said sensibly, "Xiao Yan, I'll go home and wait for you."

Xiao Yan nodded and left the Tian Shu Hall with Yao Lao.

After leaving the Tian Shu Alliance, the two quickly arrived at the Jia Nan Academy via Space Channel.

We crossed the mountains and arrived at the Inner Academy.

Xiao Yan did not go to the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower immediately.

Arriving at Su Qian's office with practiced ease, Su Qian Xiao Yan went straight to the point as soon as he entered.

"Great Elder Su Qian, I need to go to the Magma World to help me evacuate the students," Xiao Yan said.

"Okay," Su Qian said calmly.

In fact, this wasn't the first time Xiao Yan had entered the Underground Magma World, as he had done so several times.

Su Qian looked up, about to get up, but found that there was one more person this time.

He glanced at the white-robed man beside Xiao Yan, a strange feeling rising in his heart.

In his perception, the place was completely empty, but his eyes clearly told him that a person was standing there.

This absurd and contradictory sense of unease made Su Qian realize something.

He asked Xiao Yan, "Elder Yan Xiao, who is this?"

Xiao Yan introduced, "My teacher is Yao Chen."

"Yao Chen..." Su Qian thought for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be that champion of the Alchemist Conference, the number one Alchemist on the continent?!"

Yao Chen's lips curled up almost imperceptibly.

Xiao Yan, standing to the side, replied, "There are many champions in the Alchemist Conference, but if we're talking about the number one Alchemist on the continent, then Elder, you must be referring to my teacher."

Yao Chen thought for a moment and nodded.

His alchemy skills have never been bad. The reason he was previously stuck on the Nine-Colored Pill Lightning and unable to refine Tier 9 Medicinal Pill was never because there was anything wrong with his alchemy skills or Flame Control Technique.

What has always limited him is his spiritual realm and his cultivation of Dou Qi qi.

Now that his Dou Qi qi cultivation has reached the Two-Star Dou Saint, his soul realm has also naturally reached the Heavenly Realm.

Although he hadn't refined any pills yet, Yao Chen was confident that he could now completely refine Tier 9 Medicinal Pill!

Ninth-Rank Alchemist might not make him the true number one alchemist, but he no longer felt as insecure about the title as before.

"Greetings, Venerable Yao!" Su Qian bowed respectfully to Yao Lao.

Yao Chen did not correct the way he was addressed.

Next, the three of them went to the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower.

Su Qian began to evacuate the students who were cultivating inside.

As always, Xiao Yan took out some low-grade pills of the third or fourth rank to make up for it.

Upon receiving the pills, the students showed no anger whatsoever; instead, their faces were filled with smiles.

After all, being evacuated wouldn't deduct their Fire Energy, and they'd even get a highly valuable pill for free—a huge profit.

Many Jia Nan Academy students would love to experience more evacuation incidents.

Soon, all the students inside the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower were evacuated.

Xiao Yan and Yao Lao entered the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower with ease and made their way to the bottom of the tower.

Standing at the bottom of the tower, looking down at the rolling lava, Xiao Yan unusually did not conceal his aura.

In the beginning, as soon as he arrived at the bottom of the tower, he had to immediately conceal his aura and use spatial power to block the Semi-Saint Fire Lizard's detection.

Later, he killed several Dou Venerate- level Fire Lizard, causing heavy losses to the Flame Lizard Clan. The Semi-Saint Fire Lizard kept a closer eye on him, forcing him to conceal his aura before entering the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower to avoid being quickly located.

Now, the roles of offense and defense have reversed!

With the spatial power completely dissipated, Xiao Yan fully revealed his aura as a fourth-level Dou Venerate.

He took a step forward, and in the next second, he was in the lava.

The Yao Lao followed closely behind, his breath almost imperceptible.

As Xiao Yan's aura spread...

Within the Underground Magma World, two incredibly powerful auras swept towards the upper layers of the magma.

These two incredibly powerful figures moved faster than Xiao Yan could even perceive, arriving at the upper layer of the magma in an instant.

Two Semi-Saint Fire Lizard appeared in front of Xiao Yan.

Enemies meeting are bound to be hostile, and a fierce killing intent surged in the eyes of the two Fire Lizard.

Without the slightest hesitation, the two Semi-Saint Fire Lizard attacked simultaneously, their fists, imbued with boundless power, hurtling towards Xiao Yan's face at lightning speed.

Xiao Yan neither dodged nor avoided the attack, but stared directly at it, the terrifying force of the punch not even making him flinch.

He knew that those two punches wouldn't land on him.

And that is indeed the case.

In the blink of an eye, just as the fists of the two Semi-Saint Fire Lizard were about to land on Xiao Yan's face,

The Yao Lao has made his move.
