Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 177 A product from a Dou Di is indeed extraordinary.

Underworld.

A figure was enveloped in yellow light, and around the light, powerful red and black energies roared and swirled, surging into the light.

It's awful!

I feel terrible!

This is how Xiao Bai felt at this moment. On his yellowish face, red and black colors flashed alternately. One moment he turned completely red, like a red-hot ceramic, and the next he turned black. If someone looked directly at this black, it would be like looking at the dark and deep seabed.

The surging energy continuously flows into the body through the pores on the skin's surface, giving the body a strong feeling of expansion.

The broad meridians that had been tempered again in Thunderfall Valley began to throb slightly.

Xiao Bai quietly sensed the state of his body from his current perspective.

The red aura from the heart continues to rise, which is a characteristic of the fire element: blazing, scorching, and bright!

The black energy flowing from the kidneys continuously descends, which is a characteristic of the water element: moistening, cooling, and storing.

While constantly vying for dominance, the two also drifted further apart, as if they both disliked each other.

To achieve balance, the fire in the heart must descend, and the water in the kidneys must rise. The two converge in the spleen and are then harmonized by the earth element, thus achieving the goal of water and fire complementing each other.

"It's about time! Otherwise, even if we achieve our goal, it will be a bit of a loss!" Xiao Bai sensed that his body had reached its limit, shook his head, and felt a little regretful.

Before coming to this place, his goal was to stabilize the balance of his five internal organs and simply let his body recover.

But feeling the immense power of the earth's veins and the constant struggle between water and fire within his body, as well as the vast energy he absorbed from the outside world, a bold idea gradually sprouted in his mind.

He wanted to take this opportunity to break through the shackles of the Dou Wang realm and reach the Dou Huang realm in one fell swoop.

But things didn't go as smoothly as he had imagined, because even after countless temperings, his body still couldn't withstand the impact of such a massive energy that spanned several minor realms and one major realm.

"Snap!"

A faint tearing sound suddenly came from within his body, and Xiao Bai focused his attention on it.

All that could be seen was a once incredibly strong and crystalline meridian, now swollen and extremely thin, filled with the energy rushing through the body like a raging river, as if emitting a slight groan of throbbing pain, and cracking open with a narrow opening.

Moreover, this is true when you look around the meridians in your body!

Xiao Bai knew he couldn't wait any longer; otherwise, just treating and restoring these ruptured meridians would take a considerable amount of effort and time.

With his mind returning to normal, Xiao Bai slowly opened his eyes, forcibly controlling the devouring and expansion of the lightning seed within his body. He raised his head and looked at the highest point of the giant stalactite above him.

At the bottom where the stalactite connects to the dome, Xiao Bai kept the Earth Nether Lightning at bay, preventing it from getting close. This was because if the stalactite absorbed the lightning, it would only decompose it into pure earth-attribute energy, lacking the effect of a spiritual object condensed over millions of years.

Just like the Azure Longevity Pill Xun'er gave him last time, which extended others' lives by ten years, Xiao Yi only gained a little bit of vitality from the Wood element after swallowing it.

Rare creatures like the Thunder Seed and the Little Golden Dragon, born from the heavens and earth, do not seem to need the other effects of these spiritual treasures. After consuming them, they only become resources for strengthening their own essence.

After all, lifespan and bone-tempering techniques are only necessary for beings with flesh and blood. For them, these are all trivial matters; nothing is as important as their origin!

Energy wings appeared behind him, and Xiao Bai soared into the air, flying towards the bottom of the stalactite hanging from the inverted mountain sky.

Arriving at the base of this largest stalactite, where it connects to the top of the mountain dome, a faint fluorescent light shines through, making it appear like transparent crystal—it's incredibly beautiful!

Ignoring this rare sight, Xiao Bai flipped his hand, and an ancient jade piece with strange and mysterious patterns appeared in his palm.

"I'm sorry you had to go through that!"

Xiao Bai looked at the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade in his hand and muttered to himself.

The contents of this item are extremely fragile and can only be handled with jade. Right now, besides his clothes, this is the only suitable thing Xiao Bai has on him.

The storage ring couldn't withstand the impact of the energy within the body in Thunderfall Valley and shattered, with only a few items remaining inside.

After all, that storage ring was only obtained from Galebi, and it was just a low-grade item that couldn't withstand damage, so it was to be expected!

Pfft!

After a crisp sound, the ancient jade piece instantly disappeared into the stalactite-like stone wall. With a slight rotation of the wrist, a palm-sized circular opening appeared instantly.

"It really works great!"

Xiao Bai originally thought that he would need to add his fighting spirit to the jade to cut it open, but he didn't expect that it was unnecessary at all. The edge of the jade didn't look sharp, but it cut the stone wall like tofu.

I wonder if those from the eight ancient clans who knew about ancient jade would be furious and curse Xiao Bai as a spendthrift if they saw this scene!

This is the ancient jade of the Tuoshe Emperor, which concerns the inheritance of the ancient emperor, and you just waste it like this!

"A product from a Dou Di (Battle Emperor) is indeed extraordinary!"

Xiao Bai put away the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, then inhaled at the stone wall that had been swept across, and the stone skin peeled off.

In an instant, a burst of intense light shot out from the broken hole, so dazzling that Xiao Bai couldn't help but squint.

After getting used to the bright light, I looked carefully into the cave entrance and saw a viscous, emerald-like liquid suspended inside, from which the bright light was emanating.

The liquid seemed to possess a spirit, slowly flowing and wriggling within the cave, never crossing the narrow confines of the small opening.

The pure energy contained within it is more than ten times more concentrated than the milky white liquid in the groove below!

"This is the true... Earth Core Tempering Milk!"

Looking at the liquid in the cave, Xiao Bai took a deep breath and felt a comfortable sensation in his body, marveling at the wonders of nature.

If one didn't know this from the original work, upon entering and seeing the milky white liquid in the groove, one might think that was the best thing that produced this stalactite.

Little did they know, that milky white liquid was just a small amount of diluted emerald liquid!

Without much hesitation, Xiao Bai waved his hand, and a stream of emerald light flashed past and flew into his mouth.

Suddenly, a powerful force, carrying a strange, heavy yet cool sensation, flowed into my limbs and bones.

The Earthly Nether Lightning sensed this energy, its light shone brightly, and it tried to devour it, but Xiao Bai immediately stopped it, forbidding it from making any move.

After this wondrous power had completely traveled behind him...

"Click-clack!"

A series of cracking sounds came from between the bones. Xiao Bai hurriedly looked inside his body and found that all the bones in his body were covered with a faint emerald green light. With a slight shimmer, strange fluctuations came from the bones.

Strands of dark blood seeped from the bones, only to be instantly washed away by the surrounding aura of water and fire.

"Comfortable!"

Xiao Bai closed his eyes and sensed that his bones were experiencing a refreshing feeling of transformation.

Let's begin!

Xiao Bai did not continue to immerse himself in it. The throbbing pain in his meridians constantly reminded him that if he did not take action, they would explode!

With a flash, he landed on the blue stone below, sat cross-legged, and formed a hand seal.

The immense earth-elemental energy within his body suddenly erupted, completely suppressing and absorbing the water and fire elements.

The water and fire elemental beings were caught off guard by the sudden attack from the earth elemental being, and began to struggle violently.

But at this moment, the advantages of the earth element come into play: solid, heavy, and all-encompassing, it remains unmoved as a mountain despite the constant impact of the powerful water and fire elements.

"This is the moment of bearing, containing, biochemical transformation, and harmonization!"

Xiao Bai changed the hand seal, mobilizing the heart fire in the five internal organs to descend and warm the kidney water, while the kidney water ascended to restrain the heart fire.

With the addition of the earth element, this step became simpler. When Xiao Bai mobilized the two elements, it was clear that the earth element was also cooperating, harmonizing the water and fire elements that were extremely resistant to merging.

In the valley outside.

"Xun'er, is Xiaobai alright?"

Little Fairy Doctor looked at the cave with worried eyes. The scene outside must have been caused by Xiao Bai, but she didn't know what this situation meant.

"I don't know either, but Brother Xiao Bai must be at a crucial moment right now. We should trust him!"

Xun'er shook her head, her gaze fixed intently on the changes in the energy vortex above.

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

In that instant, the yellowish-gray lightning arcs that had spread across the ground to an unknown location suddenly contracted and disappeared.

Then a thick column of yellow smoke shot into the sky from a huge mountain range behind the valley.

Above the sky, a burst of yellow energy suddenly erupted, blotting out the sun and obscuring the entire valley. The azure sky disappeared, swallowing the swirling vortex of water and fire energy.

"Look! The water and fire energy fluctuations inside are so intense, it looks like it's about to explode!" Zi Yan's clear and childlike voice suddenly rang out.

"Brother Xiao Bai! What exactly are you cultivating? Please don't let anything happen to you!" Xun'er's eyes were filled with worry, and she had lost her usual composure.

She wanted to rush into the cave to see what was going on, but she was afraid that even if she went in, she wouldn't be able to help and might even disturb him.

She couldn't understand Xiao Bai's cultivation, and even with her knowledge, she felt she couldn't interfere in the slightest.

She felt that everything that happened today was in great conflict with the cultivation system she had previously known.

On this continent, everyone cultivates only one type of energy, but Xiao Bai is different. He seems to be cultivating the lightning attribute, but the energy constantly gathering above contains metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, but not lightning!

"noob."

Little Fairy Doctor clenched her fists, her beautiful eyes fixed on the yellow light above, where two types of energy were constantly clashing, like fire and water.

"Are you crazy, my lord? Are you trying to forcibly combine two completely repulsive energies, water and fire, together?" The little golden dragon stared blankly at the sky.

On this Dou Qi Continent, even fire of the same attribute can cause a huge explosion if the two flames come together carelessly, not to mention the opposing forces of water and fire.

"Bang!"

A loud bang startled the tense group, and after realizing that the sound didn't come from above, they looked in the direction of the sound.

"Oh no! Old man!" Zi Yan exclaimed softly, throwing away the remaining half of the fruit in her hand, and in a flash, she was about to run towards the inner courtyard.

"Don't run! Tell me what happened first!" Little Golden Dragon hurriedly stopped the anxious Zi Yan and asked.

"Don't stop me!" Zi Yan's figure flashed, about to disappear again, but when she reappeared, she found the little golden dragon still in front of her, and couldn't help but shout urgently:

"This is a signal flare from Canaan Academy. I heard the old man say that this kind of signal flare is only launched when the inner academy is in crisis, to summon all the elders of Canaan Academy!"

"Crisis?!" The little golden dragon's face was shocked. With those three old men in Canaan Academy, who would dare to cause trouble here? A Dou Zun?

While the little golden dragon was in a daze, Zi Yan moved swiftly, bypassing it, and headed towards the inner courtyard.

"My Lord, Immortal Mistress, what should we do?" If it really was a Dou Zun attacking, the little golden dragon couldn't help but shudder at the thought of that scene, and instantly had the urge to run away.

"Don't worry about it! We'll talk about everything after Brother Xiao Bai comes out of seclusion!" Xun'er's eyes were calm. She glanced at the direction of the inner courtyard, then turned her head back to continue watching the changes in the yellow light above.

The changes above should indicate Xiao Bai's cultivation progress. Right now, even if the sky were to fall, nothing would be more important than his safety!

"Alright!" The little golden dragon looked at the violent fluctuations in the sky and prayed silently, "Master, please finish quickly! Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to stay in Canaan Academy!"

Bottom floor of the Heavenly Fire Refining Tower.

In the world of magma, a deep rumble echoed continuously, magma erupted, and flames surged.

A colossal, transparent fire python, its entire form obscured, raised its massive head, its triangular pupils glowing with invisible flames, and locked its gaze firmly onto the aged figure above the energy shield.

With its considerable intelligence, it had already recognized this as its old adversary with whom it had dealt countless times. Immediately, a terrifying energy fluctuation suddenly rose from its massive body.

This energy was so violent and powerful that even Su Qian above felt a sense of unease.

"Has no one arrived yet?" Su Qian glanced around at the eleven elders whose auras were already extremely weak, and frowned.

Unexpectedly, this Fallen Heart Flame is so violent, completely different from the usual riots that seem like a mere formality.

Previously, its monthly outbursts were like a mission to burn through an energy shield, leaving it riddled with holes.

But this time, it seemed as if they were determined to break through the energy shield of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, even at the cost of mutual destruction!

"Elder, we've arrived!"

A loud shout rang out from the dimly lit base of the tower.

A group of old men hurriedly walked out of the iron gate. Judging from their appearance, they were the same group of elders that Xiao Bai had met on the stands in the outer courtyard. The one who spoke at the head of the group was Hu Qian.

"How is the situation?"

"You've come at the right time. Quickly relieve them. Hu Qian, you take the lead and maintain this energy shield. For some reason, this beast seems determined to break through the tower's confinement today!"

The Grand Elder breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that someone had finally come to his aid.

"good!"

The crowd responded in unison.

However, the elder sensed something was off about the voice; there was a familiar, clear, and youthful voice mixed in.

His gaze swept across the crowd for a moment, he was taken aback, then his face darkened, and he flew into a rage.

"What are you doing here!"
