Half a Year of Grueling Training! Preparing to Leave the Xiao Clan!

Half a Year of Grueling Training! Preparing to Leave the Xiao Clan!

At the very least, it numbered in the hundreds of millions.

Although they weren't all fire-attributed, even if only one in ten thousand qualified, there would still be over a hundred million.

With such a massive number, Wang Chen could freely select Beast Flames that satisfied him.

Not to mention, this technique could continue to be enhanced and devour even more Beast Flames.

After just one enhancement, it had gone from the Ten Beasts Spirit Transformation Art to the Hundred Beasts Spirit Transformation Art.

It could be said that this technique had an incredibly high growth ceiling.

Not to mention that this technique allowed him to use the innate talents of the Beast Flames it devoured.

That might not have sounded like much, but Wang Chen knew just how terrifying it was.

Many magical beasts possessed extremely frightening talents, but their own strength was too weak for them to bring out those talents' full potential.

The simplest example was a magical beast whose poison was so terrifying that even a Dou Emperor would die upon contact.

Yet it might only possess the strength of the Second Grade.

No matter how terrifying its poison was, it would be impossible for it to harm a Dou Emperor.

After all, before you could attack, the Dou Emperor would have already killed you.

But when such an ability was placed in Wang Chen's hands, "terrifying" was no longer enough to describe it.

After all, Wang Chen could cultivate, and his strength could continue to soar.

Once Wang Chen reached the Dou Emperor realm, combined with such terrifying poison, he could practically take down a Dou Emperor with every punch.

And that was merely its most basic application.

After all, some magical beasts possessed exceptionally special talents.

Some might even cause a Dou Zun or Dou Sheng to suffer a disastrous setback if they weren't careful.

Not to mention that Wang Chen had a Golden Finger. After enhancement, it could even strengthen those talents.

This technique was simply like adding wings to a tiger when paired with Wang Chen.

Although this technique had a restriction, it wasn't a restriction at all to Wang Chen.

After all, Wang Chen had the Golden Finger. With a single enhancement, he could completely refine a Beast Flame.

There was no need to rely on the technique itself to refine it.

The technique only needed to devour it directly for enhancement.

To put it bluntly, Wang Chen's current strength was simply too low, and he lacked the capital to do anything.

Otherwise, if he could obtain a Tier 7 Beast Flame, he might be able to use the energy within it to rapidly break through.

Of course, that was contingent on Wang Chen obtaining the Beast Flame and completely devouring it before its energy dissipated.

After all, once the devouring began, the energy within the Beast Flame would start dissipating.

If he couldn't completely devour it within a certain amount of time, that energy would disperse into the world.

After carefully examining the changes in his strength, Wang Chen closed the Attribute Panel in satisfaction.

He used Dou Qi to dry the moisture on his body, then headed toward the back mountain.

Having broken through to the Dou Zhe realm, he wanted to find out how much the power of his battle skills had increased.

That was extremely important.

If he didn't understand the specifics of his own attacks, encountering a battle could be very dangerous.

In the blink of an eye, another two and a half days passed.

Over those two and a half days, Wang Chen gained a clear understanding of his own strength.

During that time, he also purchased around a thousand gold coins' worth of supplies.

This time, he didn't buy them from the Xiao Clan Shop.

Instead, he went directly to the stalls in the marketplace to hunt for bargains.

Now that he had broken through to the Dou Zhe realm, continuing to use the most basic Medicinal Baths would certainly not be as effective as before.

Since he had money now, he naturally didn't mind spending a little more to increase his strength.

Only then would he be worthy of the gift from that unknown benefactor.

Although Wang Chen couldn't refine medicine, obtaining one or two more advanced Medicinal Bath formulas wasn't much of a problem.

There were still some slightly more advanced Medicinal Bath formulas in the Xiao Clan's Battle Skill Pavilion.

This was also a small source of hope the Xiao Clan provided to its younger generation.

As long as they could gather the materials themselves, using them to aid their cultivation was not a problem.

This was also beneficial to the Xiao Clan.

After all, if the clan members grew stronger, they could also strengthen the clan.

In any case, the clan didn't need to provide the supplies.

A few Medicinal Bath formulas practically cost nothing.

The Xiao Clan naturally didn't mind doing something so beneficial at no cost.

In fact, it wasn't just the Xiao Clan. The other two great clans of Wutan City, and even most clans on the Dou Qi Continent, did the same.

A few First Grade Medicinal Bath formulas weren't as precious as pill formulas, and they could be used repeatedly.

It was precisely because of this that Wang Chen acquired three relatively useful First Grade Medicinal Bath formulas.

The ingredients for these ranked Medicinal Bath formulas naturally weren't the same basic, unranked medicinal herbs.

The Xiao Clan naturally wouldn't put large quantities of materials for Medicinal Bath formulas suitable for Dou Zhes up for sale.

They were basically used to nurture the clan's talented Dou Zhes.

Therefore, the Xiao Clan Shop naturally didn't carry such materials.

Otherwise, Wang Chen wouldn't have wasted time hunting for bargains at marketplace stalls.

Fortunately, the ingredients required by the three Medicinal Bath formulas Wang Chen selected were all relatively common First Grade medicinal herbs.

And Wutan City happened to be close to the Magical Beast Mountain Range, so there was still a supply of these relatively low-grade First Grade medicinal herbs.

However, street stalls sold whatever they happened to have; there was no such thing as selling a certain type of medicinal herb in bulk.

Thus, Wang Chen spent nearly an entire day browsing roughly through the Xiao Clan Marketplace and purchased about a thousand gold coins' worth of medicinal herbs.

If there had been more medicinal herbs available, Wang Chen wouldn't have minded buying several thousand more gold coins' worth.

But it didn't matter. A thousand gold coins' worth of materials was enough for Wang Chen to cultivate for some time.

After purchasing a thousand gold coins' worth of medicinal herbs, Wang Chen once again devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation.

He generally practiced battle skills in the morning and cultivated Dou Qi in the afternoon.

At night, he rested properly, recovering and strengthening his Soul Power.

It was precisely because of this that Wang Chen increasingly wanted to obtain a Soul Cultivation Technique.

Without a Soul Cultivation Technique, he could only recover his Soul Power through sleep.

But once he possessed a Soul Cultivation Technique, Wang Chen could save at least half of his resting time.

If he used that time to cultivate, his cultivation progress would become even more terrifying.

Unfortunately, Soul Cultivation Techniques were simply too rare.

Wang Chen also couldn't refine medicine yet, so he had no way to obtain a Soul Cultivation Technique.

Time passed bit by bit, and every day of Wang Chen's life followed a strict routine.

He was either cultivating to increase his strength or sleeping to recover his Soul Power.

Every half month, he would visit the Xiao Clan Marketplace to buy the materials he needed for cultivation.

Amid such days, Wang Chen spent half a year, and his strength reached Nine-Star Dou Shi.

"Phew... looks like it's time to leave the Xiao Clan!"
