Douluo: I am the outer demon

Chapter 267 Teacher, you seem weak

Xun'er's pupils shrank slightly, and the fighting spirit in her body began to circulate secretly. At the same time, she stared at the magma without blinking, with anticipation in her eyes.

Pfft!
Two figures jumped out of the magma. After seeing the two people clearly, Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief and slowly dissipated the fighting spirit attached to her body.

"Teacher, you are finally back. Humph, you made me wait here alone for so long." Xun'er said and threw herself to Shang An, staring at Shang An with her big watery eyes, as if accusing Shang An of his sins, which made Shang An say that he couldn't stand it.

Gu Yuan on the side twitched his mouth slightly. I just came up, and I'm still your father. Don't you care about me?
However, if Xun'er could become closer to Shang An, he would also be happy to see it happen.

"Okay, don't worry, I'm fine." Shang An scratched Xun'er's nose and said comfortingly, making the little girl blush.

"But you seem to be even weaker." Xun'er looked at Shang An's increasingly illusory body with tears in her eyes. She felt a vague fear in her heart, as if she would lose her teacher if she was not careful, making her want to hold on to him desperately.

"..."

Shang An glared and looked at Xun'er "ferociously". How could he describe someone like that? It was only because his real body didn't come over, otherwise he would have let Xun'er have a good taste of his power to see if he was really weak or not.

However, looking at Xun'er's innocent big eyes, he could only say helplessly:

"Don't worry, it's okay. I just taught a lesson to an ignorant guy." Seeing the worry in Xun'er's eyes, he touched Xun'er's head and comforted her.

At the same time, he couldn't help but glance at the purple gold token in his other hand. This was given to him by Zhu Kun. It was said to be the Dragon Emperor's Order. If he took the Dragon Emperor's Order to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, it would be like the Dragon Emperor himself. Moreover, the Dragon Emperor's Order contained the aura of him as the guardian. When the lizardmen sensed this aura, they would not take action, so he could use it to safely reach the bottom of the magma.

This Dragon Emperor Order is actually a symbol of the Dragon Emperor's identity. It also has a pivotal position in the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. It is held by clan leaders of all generations, but Zhu Kun gave it to Shang An without hesitation. After all, the entire Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan is too weak for this person.

Moreover, Shang An was not going to use it himself, but was going to give it to Zi Yan. After all, if she wanted to enter the ancient emperor's cave, she would have to face those lizardmen. She couldn't ask Gu Yuan for help every time. It would be much more convenient with this token. When the time comes, Zi Yan can go there at any time if she wants to see Zhu Kun, provided that she has agreed with Su Qian.

"Teacher, you can't leave me." Xun'er seemed to have sensed something, and said while tightly grasping Shang An's illusory arm.

Shang An could only nod obediently, knowing that Xun'er might have sensed something, so he could only deal with this little girl first.

"Cough cough." At this time, Gu Yuan next to him coughed twice to show his presence.

"Hey, father, you haven't left yet?" Xun'er noticed Gu Yuan then and asked in surprise.

Gu Yuan was immediately speechless and said, "I, your father, have just come out. Do you still regard me as your father?"

The answer is of course no.

"I have something else to give you." Gu Yuan said this with a dark face.

Then he waved his hand, and four flames of different colors appeared in his hand. These flames were extremely powerful, and there were many strange visions on them. They were actually strange fires.

"Father, where did you get so many strange fires?" Xun'er opened her mouth wide. She only owned four strange fires so far, of which the Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame belonged to her family, and the Bone Spirit Cold Fire was given by her teacher.

Although the strange fires that Gu Yuan took out did not look very powerful, most of them looked similar to the Qinglian Earth Core Fire, but they were still strange fires after all!

And there was one among them that Xun'er was particularly familiar with, it was the Fallen Heart Flame that she had just absorbed.

"Have you forgotten that I'm the patriarch of the Gu clan?" Gu Yuan couldn't help but want to roll his eyes, but in order to maintain his dignity in front of his daughter, he held back.

He is the patriarch of an ancient clan and one of the most powerful men on the continent. There is nothing he cannot get if he wants it. It all depends on whether he wants to or not. Yet, he is looked down upon by his daughter.

"I noticed that the technique you were practicing seemed to be related to the strange fire, so I asked someone to collect some of the strange fire."

"These four strange fires are Xuanhuang Flame, Volcano Stone Flame, Myriad Beast Spirit Fire and Falling Heart Flame. Except for the Falling Heart Flame which is in its juvenile stage, the other three are mature strange fires."

If the Fallen Heart Flame obtained under the magma is not counted, then among the other three strange fires collected by Gu Yuan, except for the Volcanic Stone Flame which ranks higher than the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire, the other two are ranked very low, respectively last and second to last.

It’s not that Gu Yuan cannot collect higher-ranked exotic fires, but the higher-ranked exotic fires are rarer, and the environment in which they live is more bizarre and hard to find, so it takes a lot of time to collect them. On the contrary, although these lower-ranked exotic fires are still rare, there are still quite a few of them in the entire Douqi Continent.

"Thank you, father." Xun'er said sincerely this time.

Hearing this, Gu Yuan's expression looked better. He used a formation to confine the four strange fires, turning them into four small balls of different colors and then handed them to Xun'er.

The energy of the strange fire is so violent that it cannot be stored in a storage ring. Before, Gu Yuan simply used his extremely strong fighting spirit to suppress the violent energy of the strange fire and temporarily placed it in his body.

After putting away the strange fire, Gu Yuan said goodbye to the two of them directly, otherwise some old guys in the clan would make trouble again. Shang An also hid back in the ring on Xun'er's chest, and then Xun'er walked out of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower.

Outside the tower, Su Qian was still waiting anxiously.

There was no way. Without that person speaking, he didn't dare to leave.

At this moment, there was suddenly a slight movement at the entrance of the tower. Su Qian immediately became alert. This movement was obviously not caused by the ancient patriarch. That person could directly use the power of space to leave the tower.

It couldn't be that the Fallen Heart Flame was causing trouble again, Su Qian thought.

then,

"Great Elder, you are..."

As soon as Xun'er came out, she saw Su Qian, whose body was tense and extremely stiff.

There was a strange look in her eyes. Why did the Great Elder look like he had been ravaged?

"Hey, it's Xun'er." Su Qian finally relaxed after seeing Xun'er. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile:

"I'm glad you're okay. Otherwise, I don't know how I'm going to explain this to your family."

"By the way, where is the ancient patriarch?" He glanced behind Xun'er and didn't see anyone else, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, you mean father. He has gone back." Xun'er said.

Su Qian's pupils dilated slightly. This student was actually the daughter of the Gu clan leader, which meant she was the eldest daughter of the Gu clan. No way, why would someone of such a noble status come to study at his Canaan Academy? No wonder the Gu clan leader came in person, it turned out that he wanted to rescue his daughter.

Although Gu Yuan's original intention was just to meet Xun'er's teacher, Su Qian misunderstood it.

"By the way, how is the Fallen Heart Flame?" Seeing that Xun'er was fine, Su Qian relaxed and began to ask about the Fallen Heart Flame. The Fallen Heart Flame was the foundation of the inner courtyard.

"...Great Elder, I'm sorry, the Fallen Heart Flame was absorbed by me." After a brief silence, Xun'er said frankly.

"Absorbed?" Su Qian's reaction was not as big as he had imagined. After seeing Gu Yuan coming in person, Su Qian had even prepared himself for the strange fire to be directly destroyed by Gu Yuan. With this psychological preparation, it was not unacceptable for the strange fire to be absorbed by Xun'er.

However, he still looked at the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower with regret and said, "Xiao Xun'er, this is not your fault. It was our negligence in our work. But I'm afraid that the inner courtyard will decline in the future."

He looked at the black tower and sighed.

The operation of the entire inner courtyard has always been deeply linked to the fire energy system. Now that the Fallen Heart Flame is gone, the fire energy system can no longer function at all, which will definitely have a huge impact on the inner courtyard. However, he really didn't dare to ask Xun'er to split the origin of the strange fire.

After hearing Su Qian's words, even the little witch Xun'er couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. It was all her own fault.

"Grand Elder, don't worry, I won't let the inner courtyard decline." Xun'er said confidently.

Su Qian thought that this was just the girl's mumbling. After all, even if a part of the origin of the strange fire was separated, the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower could not return to its previous state, unless Xun'er was left in the academy to replace the original Fallen Heart Flame. However, he would never dare to make such a request, and the girl would not agree to it, or be able to find a second Fallen Heart Flame.

But even if she was the eldest daughter of the ancient clan, it would be extremely difficult to find the second Fallen Heart Flame, and Su Qian had no hope at all.

Then he opened his mouth wide, "This, this, this is the Fallen Heart Flame!"

He opened his eyes wide and looked at the transparent fireball in Xun'er's hand. The familiar smell let him know that this was a genuine Fallen Heart Flame.

"What's going on?" He was still very surprised.

"This is the strange fire that my father collected. After all, after absorbing the strange fire of the academy, compensation must be given. This young body's Fallen Heart Flame can be regarded as compensation."

Moreover, "the juvenile body of the Fallen Heart Flame only has a vague intelligence. If it is well cultivated, it will become a great help to the Inner Court."

After saying that, Xun'er threw the fireball directly to Su Qian. Su Qian hurriedly took the fireball, his face full of joy of recovering what he had lost.

"Thank you so much, Xiao Xun'er." Su Qian sighed. Perhaps this is the style of a big family.

Speaking of which, Xun'er is not at a disadvantage. After absorbing the Fallen Heart Flame, another similar strange fire will not be of much help to Xun'er. Moreover, this Fallen Heart Flame is still in its infancy, which makes it even more useless to her. It doesn't matter if she gives it to the inner courtyard.

For Su Qian, not only did he solve the problem of sealing the Fallen Heart Flame, eliminating a difficult problem in the inner courtyard, but he also gained a controllable Fallen Heart Flame. It was really a big profit.

Both parties made money, and it is unclear who lost.

Suddenly, his eyes widened again, "You, your cultivation!"

He pointed at Xun'er, his eyes full of disbelief. Just now his mind was attracted by various things and he didn't pay much attention. Now, after taking a closer look, he found that Xun'er's cultivation had actually reached the sixth star of Dou Wang, which was a middle level among the elders.

But Gu Xun'er is only fifteen years old! Others would have reached Dou Qi at this age, but she has already reached Dou Wang. Wasn't she teasing this old man?
"It's just a small breakthrough." Xun'er said modestly.

Su Qian was speechless for a moment. From a Dou Ling to a six-star Dou Wang directly, this is called a small breakthrough. Hiss~ Are all the people from the ancient races so evil?
Su Qian, who was hit so hard that he was doubting his life, returned to his residence with the Fallen Heart Flame. Then, he looked at the new Fallen Heart Flame and an auntie smile appeared on his face.

Xun'er also returned to the attic to report her safety to Qinglin, Han Yue and the others.

Han Yue and the others have been worried sick these days. Now that they know Xun'er is fine, they naturally have to have a few gatherings with her best friends.

Xun'er didn't hide much and selectively told them some of the things that happened at the bottom of the Tianfen Refining Tower, but the existence of Shang An and Gu Yuan was concealed.

"Xun'er, this is a blessing in disguise!"

Xiao Yu put her arms around Xun'er's slender waist, put her little face on Xun'er's shoulder, and said with a smile that she didn't know Xun'er's plan and thought it was just luck.

"Xun... Senior Sister, I have finished my pills." Zi Yan also came over and looked at Xun'er pitifully, while handing over two empty jade bottles with a longing expression.

Xun'er was both angry and amused by this scene, so she had to agree to make snacks for Zi Yan later.

night,

Shang An called the little loli Zi Yan into a secret room alone.

Of course, he wasn't going to do anything weird. He just told her about Zhu Kun and threw the Dragon Emperor Order to her.

Zi Yan was not as happy as she had imagined when she received the Dragon Emperor Order. Instead, she stared at the Dragon Emperor Order in her hand in a daze, not knowing what to do.

Do you really want to go down and see her so-called father?
Zi Yan, who was always lively, was unusually silent. Finally, Shang An and Zi Yan ran to the hillside and sat facing the mountain breeze all night. Fortunately, Shang An had divine consciousness and Zi Yan's cultivation was not weak, otherwise they would have gotten sick.

Afterwards, Zi Yan seemed to have figured it out, and became closer to Shang An.

……

In the empty alchemy room, Shang An sat alone in front of the alchemy furnace.

Each precious medicinal herb was wrapped by his divine consciousness and sent into the alchemy furnace. Under his meticulous control, each herb retained the most perfect medicinal properties.

If the alchemists saw these precious medicinal materials, they would probably be heartbroken and call it a waste of resources, because among them there are even some top-notch eighth-grade spiritual fruits and herbs, which are extremely precious. Many of them are even the main ingredients for other eighth-grade elixirs.

These medicinal herbs alone almost emptied half of Xun'er's small treasury, and Ling Ying had to use some of the connections in the ancient clan to get them. Many of them were found by Shang An in Yao Chen's storage ring.

Shang An certainly would not waste such resources. His alchemy skills had long reached the pinnacle. Under his control, the medicinal properties of these herbs were perfectly integrated together, and a mysterious liquid with seven colors and fragrance appeared in the alchemy furnace, making Xiao Ziyan, who was passing by, swallow her saliva. She wanted to go in and steal some, but found that her void talent also did not allow her to break into the alchemy room, so she gave up in disappointment.

"The last medicinal ingredient."

Shang An turned out a milky white fire bead and gently put it into the alchemy furnace.

Suddenly, a magical reaction occurred between the fire bead and the medicinal liquid in the alchemy furnace. Countless medicinal liquids poured back and poured into the fire bead, causing the color of the fire bead to change continuously.

At the same time, Shang An, with a serious expression, controlled the pure red Liu Ding Divine Fire and burned it carefully on the fire bead, burning away the impurities in it.

As time passed, the liquid in the alchemy furnace became thinner and the fragrance of the elixir became stronger.

Rumble!
A huge thunder sounded above the sky of Canaan College.

Dark clouds rolled across the sky, and in the sight of many students and elders of Canaan College who were startled by the thunder, the sky gradually darkened.

The thunderclouds continued to roll, and then began to condense into different colors: silver, blue, red...

"This, this is..."

Elder Fire of the Inner Court Alchemy Department knelt down on the ground with a bang, like a devout believer, looking at the thunder above with fanaticism.

"What's wrong with you? What is this, Old Man Huo?" The elder next to him was confused and asked.

"Quiet!" Elder Huo suddenly yelled at the elder, scaring the elder.

"This is an eighth-grade elixir! The thunder tribulation caused by the eighth-grade elixir!" As Elder Huo spoke, his eyes suddenly became moist, and he cried like a little child, sometimes happy, sometimes wailing.

"I am so lucky to have witnessed the birth of an eighth-grade elixir with my own eyes."

The elder next to him was already stunned by the name of this eighth-grade elixir!
The rolling thunderclouds became increasingly colorful, until nine different colors appeared in the end. There was even a hint that these nine colors would unite and turn into black.

"What kind of elixir is the teacher making? It makes such a big noise." Xun'er muttered as she looked towards the alchemy room not far away.

Han Feng, who was far away in Fengcheng, also vaguely felt the changes in Canaan College and looked over there in disbelief.

"How is it possible? How could there be an alchemist of this level in the Black Horn Region?"

"Could it be that old guy's friend?"

"No, I can't scare myself."

Han Feng stared in the direction of Canaan College, his eyes sometimes mad and sometimes fearful.

The thunder roared for a long time, making the students of Canaan College tremble with fear. The surrounding monsters knelt on the ground and trembled. The fear of thunder was engraved in the genes of living things. In the end, the thunder that seemed to destroy everything was easily absorbed by an illusory little bell.

The thunderbolt dissipated, and a very spiritual pill broke out of the furnace, transforming into a small beast shaped like a unicorn. It let out a low roar and was about to break through the air.

"Want to run? Ha."

Shang An slapped it back into a round shape and sealed it in a jade bottle.

“It’s still a little off!”

Looking at the jade bottle in his hand, Shang An was a little disappointed. Originally, he had deduced a fortune pill based on the way of heaven, using the fire pill of the fire lizard as the raw material. He did not expect that the effect of this fortune pill was much worse than expected. It could only be called a small fortune pill at best.

This small fortune pill can directly help people break through to the Dou Zun level, and not just a low-star Dou Zun level, but at least a high-level Dou Zun level of seven or eight stars. It can be said that taking this pill can make people reach the sky in one step, and other than making the foundation a little weak, there are no other side effects. You only need to spend time consolidating the foundation, and you can continue to rely on practice to break through.

However, the minimum requirement for taking this pill is Dou Huang cultivation level, and it cannot allow ordinary people to achieve success overnight.

Even though this was still a supreme elixir for most people and some minor flaws were harmless, Shang An was not very satisfied. He had expected that the Good Fortune Pill should still allow the foundation to remain solid after a breakthrough and have no restrictions on the level of cultivation required to take it, allowing people with no foundation to reach great heights in one step.

"Forget it, let's keep it and see who to give it to when the time comes." Putting the jade bottle containing the magic pill aside, Shang An began to refine other pills.

Thus, for the next few days, thunderclouds continued to hang over the sky above Canaan College.

That kind of strange thunder would appear almost every once in a while, sometimes with seven colors and sometimes with eight colors. Gradually, many students became accustomed to it, and many people even began to appreciate the thunder. Fortunately, Xun'er told Su Qian in advance, and the inner courtyard did not cause any turmoil because of it.

A month later, I finished making the last batch of pills.

Looking at the fifty jade bottles neatly placed in front of him, Shang An couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"One Pure Yang Golden Pill, forty-nine Pure Yang Large Pills, not bad."

These pills are all made with the fire beads of fire lizards as the main material. Among them, the Pure Yang Golden Pill, like the Small Fortune Pill, uses the fire beads of semi-saint level fire lizards.

The effects of these pills are to enhance a person's potential and talent, speed up cultivation, and shape a pure yang body. Those who take them can transform from mediocre people into geniuses.

And that Pure Yang Golden Pill is equivalent to sacrificing a Semi-Saint. After taking it, one can create a Pure Yang spiritual body, and the speed of cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds. Even an ordinary person can become a top genius after taking it.

However, it is of little use to geniuses with special physiques or top talents, such as Xun'er and Qinglin. Otherwise, if those monsters can become even more evil, then this Douqi Continent may not be able to accommodate them.

Moreover, talent is actually only useful in the early stages of cultivation, while in the later stages more emphasis is placed on comprehension, opportunity, and understanding of the Tao.

And this one and only Pure Yang Golden Pill was prepared by Shang An for Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu's talent at the beginning was not top-notch, but just average. Even after practicing basic boxing, his talent has now caught up with or even surpassed Xiao Yan. At most, he is just a pretty good genius, with almost the potential to be a Dou Zong. Looking at the entire Douqi Continent, he is really not good enough.

So Shang An prepared this pill for her. After all, this was the little girl he had watched grow up, so he had to take care of her a little.

With this elixir to improve his aptitude, Xiao Yu's talent is no less than the top geniuses of those ancient races. Even the Fighting Saint is no longer a luxury. He can keep up with Xun'er and the others and not be left far behind.

After putting away the pills, Shang An stretched his body.

The alchemy room, which had been sealed for a month, was finally opened today.

Xun'er, who often came to check on them, suddenly showed a look of joy on her face.

"teacher!"
