Chapter 324: Late Spirit Realm, Three Thousand Flames

It was just that Xiao Ling was rich and powerful, and the cultivation of several people had all reached the Dou Zong realm, so naturally there was no obstacle. He simply picked a courtyard as their base for this period of time.

When the four people were settled, the night was already deep. Xiao Ling originally planned to take the assessment of the alchemist badge, but now it seems that this plan has to be put on hold for the time being. He decided to have a good rest for a night and recuperate.

In the small courtyard they rented, Xiao Ling and Xiao Yixian sat on the swing hand in hand, enjoying the tranquility of the night.

The moonlight sprinkled on the stone slabs of the small courtyard, casting mottled shadows of the trees, and the swing swayed gently, making a creaking sound, adding a touch of warmth to this quiet night.

"The night here is so beautiful, and there are so many stars, which is different from what we have seen before." Xiao Yixian said softly, her voice was soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the night.

"Yes, every place has its own unique beauty. If you want to see the stars, after we help you solve the side effects of the Evil Poison Body, we will go to Yao Lao's Xingyun Pavilion. It is definitely one of the best places to see the stars in Douqi Continent." Xiao Ling smiled slightly and held Xiao Yixian's hand tightly.

Xiao Yixian's mouth curled up a faint smile, and said softly: "Hearing you say that, I am a little looking forward to it." Her eyes flickered with longing for the future. I don't know if she was looking forward to the day when the Evil Poison Body was solved, or looking forward to watching the stars in Xingyun Pavilion at night.

"It's a pity that I couldn't take you to Qingshan Town for more time. The starry sky there is actually quite beautiful." Xiao Yixian said with a sigh.

"Don't worry, I will definitely take you there when all this dust settles. We will travel all over Douqi Continent. Whatever you want to see, we will see it." Xiao Ling stretched out his hand and embraced Xiao Yixian in his arms, his voice full of tenderness

Xiao Yixian responded softly, and then leaned on Xiao Ling's shoulder. Under the moonlight, their shadows were very long.

Everything around them seemed to become peaceful and harmonious at this moment. The hazy moonlight flowed down like water, gently covering them, as if they were covered with a soft gauze woven by moonlight.

Holding Xiao Yixian, Xiao Ling took a deep breath of the fragrance in her hair and felt relaxed. The fatigue of the journey in recent days seemed to dissipate with this fragrance, leaving only an indescribable comfort.

In this tranquility, Xiao Ling's distracting thoughts gradually faded away, as if washed by a clear spring.

He felt a wonderful change quietly happening in his heart, just like the brightest star in the night sky suddenly flickered, although it was subtle, it made his soul feel an unprecedented lightness.

The world around him seemed to become clearer, and every breeze and every rustling of leaves became unusually vivid.

Xiao Ling's senses seemed to be magnified, and he could capture those details that he usually ignored, as if he was experiencing the world from a new perspective for the first time.

Around Xiao Ling, some tiny light spots began to appear. They seemed to be attracted by some mysterious power and slowly gathered towards Xiao Ling's brows, where his soul sea was.

These light spots were like elves in the night sky, light and full of spirituality. They continued to merge into Xiao Ling's soul sea, causing this inner ocean to quietly expand and greedily absorb these spiritual particles.

Xiao Yixian soon noticed this subtle change. She gently withdrew from Xiao Ling's arms and curiously observed everything happening in front of her.

Xiao Ling closed his eyes at this moment, completely immersed in a deep state of meditation, unaware of everything in the outside world, as if he had entered another world.

Xiao Yixian herself had reached the level of spiritual realm soul. She could clearly sense that the particles that gathered towards Xiao Ling were the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yixian breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that this change was a rare opportunity for Xiao Ling and would only bring benefits.

So, she stood quietly aside, observing Xiao Ling to ensure that he would not be disturbed during the process.

The commotion here was not small, even Qinglin and Tianhuo Zunzun, who had returned to their rooms to rest, were attracted out. Seeing this scene, both of them were a little surprised.

"Haha, this kid is really lucky to have encountered such a good thing. It seems that his soul realm is about to break through. When he wakes up, he will probably reach the late stage of the spirit realm." Yao Chen's soul body floated out of the bone inflammation ring worn by Tianhuo Zunzun. He stroked his beard and said with a playful smile.

"You two little girls can also take this opportunity to exercise your soul power. This will also be of great benefit to your soul cultivation." Yao Chen turned his head and stopped staring at Xiao Ling, and said to Xiao Yixian and Qinglin.

Hearing what Yao Chen said, Qinglin and Xiao Yixian looked at each other, nodded, and without saying much, they sat cross-legged next to Xiao Ling and began to practice soul skills.

Yao Chen and Yao Tianhuo were not idle either. They each used their own methods to cover up the aura here.

After all, Xiao Ling's breakthrough to the soul realm made quite a big noise. If those with strong soul power noticed it, it would be troublesome. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, it is better to restrain yourself.

Time passed quietly during the practice of several people, and three hours passed in a blink of an eye. At this moment, a strong and vast spiritual power suddenly surged from Xiao Ling's brow, like a huge wave suddenly rising under the calm sea.

But just as these soul powers were spreading, Xiao Ling's mind moved and he easily retracted them back to the depths of his brows.

With a deep breath, Xiao Ling's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, and a bright light flashed in his eyes, as if he could see through everything in the world.

And a faint fluorescence gradually emanated from the surface of Xiao Ling's body. This light was very strange and almost invisible. Only when you use soul power to perceive it can you discover its subtle existence.

The surrounding grass leaves, which were originally a little withered and yellow, actually recovered their vitality little by little under the illumination of this weak fluorescence. The withered and yellow gradually faded, and the tender green new buds quietly emerged. The whole scene looked full of vitality and aura.

As Xiao Ling slowly woke up, Xiao Yixian and Qinglin also woke up from their cultivation state. Although their soul realm did not break through, it can be clearly felt that their soul power has also improved significantly.

"Haha, are you finally awake?" As the three woke up from their cultivation, the Sky Fire Venerable who had been guarding the law beside them slowly walked over.

Yao Chen also came over, his voice was filled with a hint of relief and satisfaction: "It seems that you have gained a lot from this practice, Xiao Ling, your soul power has reached the late stage of the spiritual realm."

"You didn't have time to take the 'Purple Spirit Heart and Soul Pill' before, but now it can be used. When your soul realm is stable, take another one. When the time comes, you can practice in seclusion and maybe you can break through to the great perfection of the spiritual realm in one fell swoop. At that time, you can try to refine the eighth-grade nine-color pill."

"Haha, Yao Lao, don't joke with me. That's still a long way for me, and I'm not in a hurry at this moment." Xiao Ling waved his hand with a hint of smile in his tone.

Then, his eyes turned to the bright night sky above, and a sharpness flashed in his eyes. He could feel that in the distant sky, there was an extremely hot breath surging.

"Did you notice that? That place is a space specially opened by Danta to seal the Three Thousand Flames. It's not easy to get in. Unless the three giants of Danta personally take action, it's difficult for ordinary people to set foot there." Yao Chen noticed Xiao Ling's gaze, turned his head, and explained in a relaxed tone.

"Three Thousand Flames, if the young master can subdue it, there must be a lot of benefits." Qinglin took Xiao Ling's arm, with a gleam of expectation in his eyes.

"Of course, the Three Thousand Flames can be ranked in the top ten on the list of strange fires. It is much more powerful than the strange fires that Xiao Ling has subdued before. Even my Bone Spirit Cold Fire can't compare to it. If Xiao Ling can absorb it now, breaking through to the Dou Zun realm is a piece of cake." Yao Chen smiled and rubbed Qinglin's head, then looked in the direction of Xiao Ling and continued.

"The Alchemy Contest will start in more than two years. With your alchemy skills, you will definitely win the championship. By then, you will be qualified to refine the Three Thousand Flames. Although many strong people in the Dan Tower have tried to refine it, they all failed. However, Xiao Ling, I think you still have a great chance to subdue the Three Thousand Flames." Yao Chen was full of confidence in Xiao Ling, with a hint of ridicule in his words, but more of recognition of Xiao Ling's ability.

"Hehe, that's two years later. However, even if I can't subdue this flame now, I would like to have a sneak peek and see what the Three Thousand Flames look like. I am very curious about this flame that can be ranked in the top ten of the Different Flames List." Xiao Ling smiled slightly, with a hint of ease and curiosity in his tone.

"Then you have to be careful and don't make too much noise. The soul power of the three giants in the Dan Tower is not vegetarian, and it is still a little higher than your current level." Yao Chen did not stop Xiao Ling from exploring the Three Thousand Flames, but just reminded him slightly.

Xiao Ling nodded gently, with a faint smile on his lips. Then, his eyes slowly closed...

At the moment when his eyes closed, a powerful soul power surged from his brow like the receding tide, and then spread towards the starry night sky.

Xiao Ling's soul power rippled in the night sky like water waves, with an indescribable spirituality. As this power spread, it seemed as if there was a mysterious imprint, quietly imprinted on the expanding soul power.

The exploration of soul power seemed to last for a long time, until suddenly, it seemed to break into an unknown realm. A violent vibration came, and Xiao Ling felt dizzy, as if he had crossed a certain boundary and entered a brand new space.

When Xiao Ling's soul power gradually adapted to the new environment, he found that a giant dragon with almost no end appeared in his soul vision. The giant dragon was entrenched, eyes closed, and a strange purple-black flame was lingering on its body...

The moment Xiao Ling's soul power touched the purple-black flame, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. Then, a low moan sounded from the depths of his soul.

"Hehe, this is the legendary Three Thousand Flames, and the body is indeed the Taixu Ancient Dragon. However, compared with Zi Yan's body, it still seems to lack some charm." Xiao Ling secretly evaluated in his heart, his eyes stayed on the purple-black flame for a moment, "When the time is right, I will come to subdue you."

After a casual observation, Xiao Ling carefully withdrew his soul perception.

The three giants of Danta are not easy to mess with. Fortunately, Xiao Ling has been cautious and not making much noise, and the three giants will not monitor every corner of the star field all the time, so they did not attract their attention.

"Three Thousand Yan Yanhuo is indeed worthy of its reputation. It is indeed a small feat to be able to squeeze into the top ten of the strange fire list. But looking at the appearance of this strange fire, it is exactly the same as Zi Yan's Taixu Ancient Dragon. I guess the reason why this Three Thousand Yan Yanhuo is It is difficult to subdue, and it may have something to do with the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. When the time comes, let Zi Yan help me, and it should be easy to subdue it." Xiao Ling opened his eyes and stretched, with a hint of confidence in his tone.

"What you said makes sense. How can ordinary people get along with the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan? It seems that these three thousand Yan Yanhuo are really destined to fall into your hands." Yao Chen stroked his beard. , echoed with a smile.

Afterwards, they chatted for a few more words in a relaxed manner, and then went back to their rooms to rest. It was natural for the little medical fairy and Xiao Ling to be in the same room.

The two of them didn't do much else, they just exchanged a warm goodnight kiss and fell asleep clinging to each other.

In the night, their breathing gradually became calmer, and a quiet and warm atmosphere filled the room.

…

Overnight, time passed in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, the sky turned white, ushering in a new day.

No one stayed in bed, got up early, and started a busy and expectant life.

"Xian'er, I'm going to the Danta Headquarters to test the alchemist's badge. You and Qinglin can go around the Holy Dan City. There are a lot of treasures in this place. Maybe you can find something good." Xiao Ling finished organizing. Pack your bags and get ready to go. Don’t forget to give me a few words of advice before leaving.

"Don't worry, I will do it. Come on." The little medical fairy nodded gently with a gentle voice.

"Come on, young master!" Qing Lin also encouraged him from the side.

"Haha, I can already refine eighth-grade elixirs. The assessment is just a formality. Don't worry, I will be back soon." Xiao Ling gently rubbed Qinglin's hair with a relaxed smile.

"Xiao Ling, do you want me to go with you?" Lord Tianhuo asked when he saw Xiao Ling getting ready to leave. "With me, Dou Zun, by your side, I can give you some support."

"Senior Tianhuo, you don't need to bother me," Xiao Ling waved his hand and replied with a smile, "I can handle it myself. This is the Holy Pill City, and the key is the alchemy refining technology. Besides, I don't want to be too ostentatious. As a Dou Zun, it’s better to show up later.”

After chatting for a few more times, Xiao Ling said goodbye to everyone and walked towards the Danta headquarters not far away.

The Little Medical Fairy and Qing Lin didn't stay in the yard for long, so they left and began to stroll leisurely in Shengdan City.

Lord Tianhuo acted as a guard to protect the safety of the two women.

…

The Alchemy Tower is located in the center of the inner domain of Shengdan City. This area is the holy land in the hearts of countless alchemists. Because of the mixed flow of people in Shengdan City, the inner domain is also quite heavily defended and is ready to deal with all emergencies. misfortune.

Xiao Ling wandered around the Holy Pill City for nearly half an hour before gradually entering the inner domain. When Xiao Ling stepped into the gate of the inner domain, the noisy noise suddenly became much weaker...

As soon as he stepped into the inner domain of Shengdan City, Xiao Ling immediately felt the unique atmosphere here.

Most of the people living here are forces that are inextricably linked to Danta, or those highly skilled alchemists.

Therefore, the quality of residents in the inner domain is simply not the same as that in the outer domain.

As soon as Xiao Ling entered the inner domain, he couldn't help but look up, and his eyes were instantly fixed on the center of the inner domain.

There, a black tower nearly a hundred feet high stands majestically, like a small mountain peak, giving people a shocking and majestic feeling.

The spire of this giant tower reaches straight into the sky. At a glance, you can barely see the top. The clouds and mist surround the spire, adding a bit of mystery to it.

"Is this Danta..."

Xiao Ling looked at the huge black tower that looked like Optimus Prime. Even he couldn't help but look in amazement. Compared with this Dan Pagoda, other surrounding buildings seem to be paying tribute to it and appear extremely small.

Xiao Ling didn't feel too emotional. He looked away and merged with the crowd on the street and headed straight towards the Dan Pagoda.

After a while, Xiao Ling walked around and arrived at the door of Danta headquarters.

The situation at the door seemed particularly strict. Four guards stood on both sides of the door. They all had piercing eyes and tall postures. In Xiao Ling's perception, the strength of these four people has reached the peak of Dou Huang, and each of them is a being that cannot be underestimated.

What surprised Xiao Ling even more was that in the dark, he also noticed the aura of a strong Douzong man, who was obviously guarding here.

This made Xiao Ling secretly sigh in his heart, this is really "Dou Zong looking at the gate", it is indeed a Dan Pagoda, it has a profound foundation.

There are not many people coming and going, but most of them are alchemists. The alchemist badges they wear show that they are at least the level of sixth-grade alchemists.

These alchemists were either in a hurry or calm and collected, but without exception, their eyes revealed a kind of confidence and pride.

Xiao Ling walked towards the gate of Danta headquarters with a relaxed pace, without any attempt to conceal his whereabouts. His arrival naturally attracted the attention of the people around him, and everyone cast curious glances.

Including the guards, they saw that although Xiao Ling was young, he exuded a unique temperament. Since Xiao Ling did not wear an alchemist badge, these people speculated that he might be a descendant of a member of the Dan Pagoda.
