Chapter 251 (9) Humanity and Sophistication
"Senior!" Xiao Yan stood at attention and said hello honestly.
Gu Yuan nodded towards Xiao Yan. With Gu Yuan's soul state, it is not an exaggeration to say that he could see the entire ancient world in one thought. As long as he pays a little attention, Xiao Yan's performance during this period will be completely revealed. Under Gu Yuan's gaze.
Xiao Yan's practice, in addition to daily absorbing the energy of heaven and earth and tempering his body, basically focused on refining medicine. He only practiced some fire control techniques in fighting skills, and he didn't learn any of the offensive fighting skills.
However, when there is a strange fire nearby, the method of controlling fire can be used as the most powerful offensive fighting skill. It makes sense not to practice the fighting skills and use the time saved to break through the realm.
Now, although Xiao Yan is just entering the Dou Wang realm for the first time, with his superb fire control method and Qinglian's inner fire, he is unrivaled in the Dou Wang realm.
Overall, Gu Yuan was quite satisfied with Xiao Yan.
"You are already a Dou Wang. The advanced Xuan-level skills will somewhat slow down your cultivation speed."
Gu Yuan didn't waste any nonsense and went straight to the point: "To the Dou Wang realm, it is best to use the earth level intermediate skills to transition; Dou Zong uses the earth level advanced skills; Dou Zun practices the heaven level skills."
"Senior is right." Xiao Yan realized that his old father-in-law was coming to feed him cakes, so he agreed and rubbed his hands shyly, looking forward to what good things Gu Yuan would come up with next.
Gu Yuan pondered for a moment, but instead of taking out the strange fire as Xiao Yan imagined, he changed the topic and started to popularize science:
"You must have some understanding of the power of Dou Emperor's bloodline. People with Dou Emperor's bloodline can practice at a terrifyingly fast speed. Even with a talent like yours, it is still slower than those with strong Dou Emperor bloodline."
"Actually, the Xiao family was once an ancient race called the Xiao clan. It was no less powerful than my ancient clan and was also an ally of my ancient clan. However, due to some changes, it eventually declined, and only one Xiao clan remained. .”
When Gu Yuan said this, he paused, as if he was hesitating whether to tell the specific situation of that year, but after thinking for a moment, he decided to let Xiao Xuan, the ancestor of the Xiao family, communicate with Xiao Yan without saying a misleading word. Discourse.
Xiao Yan didn't know what Gu Yuan thought, but he just said in a deep voice: "My teacher's enemy is the Soul Palace, which seems to be a force of the Soul Clan. Now it seems that there is another blood feud between me and the Soul Clan."
When Gu Yuan heard this, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Before this, Gu Yuan had also thought about Xiao Yan's reaction, thinking that Xiao Yan might be alienated from the ancient clan; he might ask about the Xiao clan's secrets; he might even brazenly make a game that matched Xun'er's identity.
However, Gu Yuan never expected that Xiao Yan would immediately establish a common front with the Ancient Clan and establish the Soul Clan as a common enemy.
Putting this weird idea out of his mind, Gu Yuan continued: "The Xiao clan also has a strong man named Xiao Xuan, whose strength is only a hair away from Dou Emperor, and he left a legacy in the sky tomb. , maybe there will be legacy of Dou Emperor’s bloodline from the Xiao clan.”
At this point, Gu Yuan seemed a little embarrassed, but he finally spoke: "With Xiao Xuan's inheritance, no one will be able to question your potential, and the ancient clan will also increase their efforts to cultivate you."
"Then, Senior, are you going to send me to that day's tomb to receive the inheritance?" Xiao Yan lowered his head, but raised his eyes high, showing a pitiful look.
Gu Yuan looked at Xiao Yan and felt a little dazed for a moment. If it were Xun'er, she would definitely think this was a great thing, but Xiao Yan is a very thoughtful guy and would definitely understand the point of his words - Xiao Xuan The ancient clan is also very interested in the inheritance.
However, Xiao Yan didn't care at all.
In this case, Gu Yuan was also willing to believe that Xiao Yan truly regarded him as a member of the ancient clan. He stretched out his hand, and a dazzling golden fire appeared in his palm.
"The strange fire on Xun'er's body is the inherited strange fire of my ancient clan. The Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame, which is fourth on the list of strange fires, is so powerful that even Dou Sheng will turn his attention to it."
"When there is no suitable master, the Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame has always remained in the ancient clan's seal. Over time, some of the power of the Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame has remained in the seal."
"Although it is not surprising compared to the original fire of Jindi Burning Sky Flame, it still has the intention of destroying everything. It is not difficult to kill Douzun. It is completely comparable to the strange fire that ranks around tenth."
After saying that, Gu Yuan flicked his finger, and the golden fire turned into a stream of light and penetrated Xiao Yan's forehead, forming a golden mark. In the dark, it was directly connected with Xiao Yan's soul power. A hint of connection.
Xiao Yan felt for a moment that Qinglian's inner fire, which should have been particularly sensitive to strange fires, did not move at all at this moment, as if he was completely unaware that there was an extra strange fire in Xiao Yan's body.
"The Sky Tomb is an important place. Your teacher cannot enter with you. In the past two days, you should first become familiar with the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame. I also need to make preparations for opening the Sky Tomb."
After saying the last sentence, Gu Yuan's figure gradually faded away, and then disappeared, unknown to where he went.
Xiao Yan shrugged, touched the simple ring on his chest, and said softly: "Teacher, we will be separated for a while, but don't worry, I will definitely find a way to revive you."
"Put mine away first. Compared to this, Xiao Xuan is not simple..."
While Xiao Yan was communicating with Yao Lao, Gu Yuan left the ancient world without stopping.
In just an instant, the endless distance passed under Gu Yuan's feet, and the next moment, Gu Yuan arrived at the Shennong Mountains.
The Shennong Mountains are closely related to the Yao Clan, but Gu Yuan's trip was not to find the Yao Clan, but to find the old Shennong who lived in seclusion in the Shennong Mountains - he had refined a living creature's flame.
The Flame of Living Beings is an anomaly among the strange fires. Whenever other strange fires appear in the world, they will inevitably be scattered thousands of miles away. However, the Flame of Living Beings calmly turns into a medicinal plant, with no aura, quietly waiting for the destined person.
Similarly, refining the flame of life has almost no improvement in combat. It only enhances the ability to restore vitality, prolongs lifespan, and gains the ability to conceal breath.
Although it was known that Old Shennong lived in seclusion in the Shennong Mountains, even Gu Yuan found it difficult to find him.
However, if old Shennong cannot be found, he can be allowed to run out on his own.
Gu Yuan stood on the Shennong Mountains and slightly released his aura towards the mountains. A faint coercion instantly swept across the entire mountains.
With Gu Yuan's control ability, only the strong Dou Sheng could sense this pressure, and it would not alarm the creatures in the mountains.
At the same time, Gu Yuan took out a medicinal plant unique to the ancient tribe from Najie, diffused the breath of the medicinal material, and made a show of wanting to exchange, then stopped taking any action.
Not long after, an old man wearing a straw coat with countless bottles and jars woven on the straw rose into the sky from the Shennong Mountains and came to Gu Yuan.
"Clan Chief Gu Yuan is a rare visitor!" The old man looked at the medicinal materials in Gu Yuan's hand with a smile on his face and asked, "I wonder why Patriarch Gu Yuan is here?"
"I have a junior... who is considered my son-in-law, but his foundation is not very good. I plan to find a trace of the origin of the flame of life for him and lay a foundation for him." Gu Yuan said with a calm expression.
The old man Shennong couldn't help but frown. This sentence contained a lot of information, but the old man Shennong only heard, or in other words, only paid attention to the message "I have taken a liking to your soul."
Before Old Shen Nong could think of a reason to refuse, Gu Yuan continued: "It doesn't take much, just a wisp of origin comparable to Dou Zun, in exchange for this Golden Emperor Flower."
Old Shennong looked at the Golden Emperor Flower carefully. This is a unique medicinal material of the ancient tribe. It is said that it was found together with the Golden Emperor Fen Tianyan. The slightly slender stems and leaves show a light gray-green color, and there is a A bright golden flower.
The golden flower has six petals, each petal is about the size of a thumb, and there are also six stamens. In the middle of the stamens, there seems to be a golden firework jumping constantly.
Although this is just a medicinal plant, for the old man Shennong who possesses the flame of life, having one is equivalent to the freedom of the medicinal plant.
The Golden Emperor Flower has always been covered by the ancient tribe and has never been leaked. Occasionally, when exchanged with other ancient races, it will only give out the prepared medicinal solution.
"To be honest, I have heard about the Golden Emperor Flower for a long time, but I have never seen it. Now that I have the opportunity to get one, I will definitely treasure it." Old Shennong said with a smile.
The implication is that the Golden Emperor Flower will never be spread out.
"So, Old Shennong agreed?" Gu Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief. If he didn't agree, he would have no choice but to steal it. This would undoubtedly ruin the reputation of the Ancient Clan and arouse the vigilance of the Yao Clan and even the Yan Clan.
"Of course." Old Shennong agreed without hesitation.
I saw a small tree suddenly growing out of the chest of old Shennong. It was green and green, and it faintly exuded a strong breath of life.
The small tree quickly sprouted new buds, and then bloomed. However, after a few breaths, an emerald-green fruit was condensed by the small tree.
Old Shennong's expression did not change much. He calmly picked off the fruit and handed it to Gu Yuan's hands: "This is the flame of life. The energy contained in this flame is enough to rival the peak of Dou Zun."
Gu Yuan didn't hesitate. After handing the Golden Emperor Flower to the old man Shennong, he held the fruit and looked at it carefully.
The green fruit is about the size of a fist, and its aura is restrained, but it is made of pure essence. With so many origins peeled off at once, Old Shennong must not be as relaxed as he appeared.
"I owe you a favor." Gu Yuan put away the fruit, left a space jade slip, and left in a hurry.
Old Shennong was left alone, lost in thought.
It is naturally not easy to separate the origin. If you are not careful, you will be strongly counterattacked by the alien fire, and may even leave hidden injuries.
That is to say, the creature's flame is relatively mild. If it were replaced by the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame, Old Shennong would probably vomit blood on the spot.
"That's all, I don't think it's a loss for the favor of a master at the peak of Dou Sheng..."
After adjusting his breath for a long time, Old Shennong shook his head, carefully put away the Golden Emperor Flower, and his body disappeared into the Shennong Mountains again.
