"I completely forgot about this."
Upon examining the Snow Pill within his body, Su Yun's eyes lit up.
He didn't possess any Heavenly Flames within him, so his cultivation speed inside the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower couldn't compare to Xiao Yan's.
After all, without medicine or a top-tier alchemist as a backup, Su Yun dared not ignore the fire poison.
He originally only intended to rely on his alchemist skills and the fact that pills were practically free for him to forcibly suppress the fire poison and gain a little more time to cultivate in the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower than others.
However, with the energy of the Fallen Heart Flame suppressed by the Snow Pill, if he pays a little attention, perhaps he can also ignore the fire poison in the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower like Xiao Yan and devote all his time to cultivation.
"Indeed, no pain, no gain. The suffering I endured in the past was worth it in retrospect. I just don't know how long this thing will last."
Su Yun thought about it and realized that the Snow Empress's Snow Pill and Xiao Yan's Heavenly Flames restraining the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower's fire poison were clearly not the same logic.
The latter is a higher-level entity that suppresses lower-level entities without harming the Heavenly Flames itself.
The former is a balance between the two sides; the Snow Pill in Su Yun's body is more like Han Feng's Heavenly Cold Qi, something that diminishes with each use.
The reason there are no signs of the Snow Pill melting yet is simply because we are currently only on the first level at the very top of the Heavenly Flame Qi Refining Tower.
It's hard to say whether the Snow Pill will still be able to be stored if the temperature drops further down.
Ultimately, this Snow Pill is only a small part of the Snow Empress's power. If it were to go very deep underground, it would only be a matter of time before the Snow Pill melts.
Looks like I'll have to go ask the Snow Empress for another Snow Pill later.
Su Yun stroked his chin, not caring that the Snow Pill was spat out by the Snow Empress.
After all, it's normal to suffer a bit for cultivation; compared to the benefits brought by the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, it's just a little hardship.
After getting a brief understanding of the situation, Su Yun found the elder in charge of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower and told him about his desire to go down there.
Normally, new students should immediately move to the second level or even lower levels upon entering the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, which is not allowed by the rules.
But as we all know, rules are meant to be broken!
After Su Yun had the elders examine his body and found no fire poison, the elders finally let Su Yun go.
Afterwards, Su Yun went to the second and third floors, stopped for a while on the fourth floor, and finally chose to cultivate on the fifth floor.
Two and a half months later.
The Snow Pill inside Su Yun's body is now less than a third of its original size, and correspondingly, Su Yun's cultivation level has decreased during this period.
In just two and a half months, Su Yun, relying on his ability to ignore the fire poison of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, and the Earth Tier Cultivation Method and auxiliary medicines from the cave in Qingshan Town, directly advanced from Da Dou Shi to Dou Ling.
A Dou Ling who is a little short of twelve years old is considered one of the top geniuses in Central Plains.
After enduring two months of hardship and experiencing a surge in cultivation, Su Yun was not in a hurry to return to the Douluo Continent to ask the Snow Empress for another Snow Pill.
Unlike Xiao Yan, who was constantly being hunted down and whose entire clan would be wiped out if he hesitated, the Su Clan was currently safe, and Su Yun himself was in a secure situation. Therefore, Su Yun could cultivate normally while maintaining a balance between work and rest, especially since he still had plenty of time.
After reaching the Dou Ling, Su Yun's first priority was to wash up, eat, and sleep. Afterward, he would go to the Jia Nan Academy to see if he could happen to run into Zi Yan.
After wandering around for three days without finding any trace of Zi Yan, Su Yun finally returned to the Su Clan in the Dou Qi Continent.
Upon returning to the family, Su Yun immediately headed towards Snow Empress's room, his goal clearly set on finding Snow Empress.
"Is something the matter?"
Sensing Su Yun's presence, Snow Empress, who was reclining in a rocking chair with her eyes closed, asked softly.
" Snow Empress, could you give me another Snow Pill? I went to a warm place before, and the Snow Pill has almost melted."
"Change?"
The Snow Empress beckoned Su Yun over, then raised her hand and placed her finger on Su Yun's dantian. With a wisp of Soul Power injected into it, the Snow Empress and the Snow Pill reconnected.
"Was there Ultimate Fire where you went? How could so much have turned to dust?"
Su Yun thought for a moment about the Heavenly Flames of the Dou Qi Continent. "I guess so, so could you give me another Snow Pill?"
The Snow Empress remained silent, but simply raised her hand and placed it on Su Yun's chest. Then, wisps of cold air traveled from the Snow Empress's hand to the point where Su Yun's chest touched, and the Snow Pill, which had been reduced to less than a third and was about to disappear, was nourished by those wisps of cold air and began to grow stronger again.
"That's fine."
Once the blood pill returned to its original size, Snow Empress withdrew her hand and continued to lie on the rocking chair.
Is there anything else?
"No." Su Yun shook her head.
He had already prepared himself for some hardship, but who knew that hardship wouldn't come.
This is really...
Let's not talk about it.
After replenishing the Snow Pill's energy, Su Yun summoned the Su Clan elders and inquired about the family's current situation.
Has anything happened at home recently?
"Young Clan Leader, during your absence, three more clan elders have broken through to higher levels, bringing the clan's total to six Titled Douluo. The First Elder Level 96, while the others are only at Level 92 due to their recent breakthroughs."
Su Yun nodded. Thanks to the Magic Core he bought in the Black-Corner Region, the family had not lacked the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring during this period. Therefore, every Soul Master in the Su Clan who reached Level 90 could obtain a Sixth-tier Magic Core.
Sixth-tier Magic Core in the Douluo Continent would be equivalent to Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, the ninth ring of a 100,000-year soul ring, allowing one to directly cross the Level 91 threshold and reach the Level 92 level.
At the same time, the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring will also refine the physical body, allowing people to reach the level of Super Douluo at Level 95 as long as they cultivate normally, or even without much normal cultivation.
All that's left is time. The Titled Douluo of the Su Clan will naturally grow into Super Douluo, and that time won't be too long.
"Furthermore, because of the victory in the previous Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament, during the time you were away, Young Clan Chief, the Emperor decided to build the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy."
" Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy?"
"Yes, specifically to train Soul Master for the Sun Moon Empire. During your absence, the Emperor felt that by the time the exchange students from the Shrek Academy returned, they should have learned something about Shrek's Soul Master teaching techniques, so he wanted to build a pseudo -Shrek."
"We originally wanted to call it Monster Academy, but then we realized that the name Monster Academy was too obviously a copy of Shrek, so we called it Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy instead."
"..."
"The emperor really spared no expense in building the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. He even invited Titled Douluo in the country to compete for the position of principal of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, and promised that the position of principal of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was equal to that of the head of the Illustrious Virtue Hall."
"I didn't see the Grand Elder when I came back, so the Grand Elder..."
"That's right, because cultivating a sufficiently strong genius would also be of great benefit to the family, so the First Elder also participated in the competition."
"Now that the First Elder has become the Dean of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, he has already identified some geniuses among the students who are worth nurturing. We are just waiting for your return, Young Clan Leader, to make the final decision."
"..."
