Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

"Success! Hehe, not bad, not bad. In time, the Fallen Heart Flame sub-flame within him will grow into the true Fallen Heart Flame." Mang Tianchi stroked his beard and laughed.

"Then Dean, the Fallen Heart Flame of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower is still there, right?" Su Qian asked as he approached Mang Tianchi.

"yes."

"What if the Fallen Heart Flame goes berserk again? There's a vast magma world down there; the Fallen Heart Flame has enough energy to recover." Su Qian felt that the hidden danger had not yet been eliminated.

Mang Tianchi: "This is no longer a problem. Xiao Li has already subdued the Fallen Heart Flame. When he achieves greater cultivation in the future, he can use the Fallen Heart Flame in his hands to plunder its essence and weaken it again."

This way, there's no need to worry about the Fallen Heart Flame going berserk. Not only will it strengthen the essence of the Fallen Heart Flame in Xiao Li's hands, but it also won't affect the operation of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower—a win-win situation!

Brilliant! Truly brilliant! As expected of a Dou Zun powerhouse, as expected of the Dean, this method is absolutely amazing.

"How long does the dean plan to stay this time?" Su Qian asked.

"I originally planned to stay for a few days, but now I'm thinking that staying for a year or two wouldn't be bad either. It's been a long time since I've been back. The academy is still the most comfortable and relaxing place." Mang Tianchi stretched.

Su Qian also breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that the dean was willing to stay a little longer; at least it would be easier for him.

"Dean, how about we make Xiao Li an elder of Canaan Academy? Anyway, his cultivation has already reached the five-star Dou Wang level, so it's good for him to be an elder. It's too much of a burden for him to be a student," Su Qian said.

Mang Tianchi said meaningfully, "That makes sense. Let him be an elder. He has a long way to go. He is eighteen years old and a five-star Dou Wang. Even in the clan, unless one has an eighth-grade bloodline or higher, no one can compare to him."

Upon hearing the dean's assessment, the two elders exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be the imperial clan?"

Su Qian asked in confusion, "What imperial clan?"

Mang Tianchi: "Naturally, it's a family that has produced Dou Di. I'll explain this to you later. I also come from such a family, but I hate this identity!"

All my efforts have been attributed to bloodline in the end! How despicable! A single sentence, "bloodline made you who you are," negates my centuries of hard work. How despicable!

As he continued, Mang Tianchi became extremely angry, which was also related to his own experiences.

(The following plot is a fictional interpretation by the author; just enjoy it for fun.)

Mang Tianchi was born into the Lei Clan and is a descendant of the Lei Clan. He has excellent talent for cultivation and was chosen by the main lineage. He was found to have the bloodline of a Dou Di at the fifth grade, which is quite good.

Mang Tianchi worked hard and reached the Dou Zong level at a young age, but was ridiculed by the main lineage. All of Mang Tianchi's achievements were due to his bloodline returning to its ancestral form; otherwise, he would have been a commoner for life!

Mang Tianchi naturally had a temper. After beating that guy up, he left the Lei Clan, abandoned the Lei Clan's resources, and ventured out into the Central Plains alone.

Decades later, when Mang Tianchi was found by the Lei Clan, he had already broken through to the Dou Zun level and was very powerful. When the Lei Clan Elders learned of this, they appointed Mang Tianchi as an elder.

As a result, some ignorant people said that Mang Tianchi, with his mere fifth-grade bloodline, could never become a Dou Sheng in his lifetime! Not even a Half-Saint!

Mang Tianchi had been holding his breath, wondering if his achievements were entirely due to his Dou Di bloodline. He believed that even without the Dou Di bloodline, he could still become a powerful figure!

After that, Mang Tianchi rarely stayed in the Thunder Realm. Unless there was a transfer order from the clan, he wouldn't care. Mang Tianchi is now moving towards the legendary Dou Sheng realm.

During this time, Mang Tianchi discovered the Fallen Heart Flame in the Black Corner Region, and he thought of establishing an academy to cultivate geniuses of the Dou Qi Continent.

Mang Tianchi hopes that his students can become Dou Sheng, even without the bloodline of Dou Di, and slap those old guys who believe in bloodlines in the face!

Unfortunately, over the years, Canaan Academy has produced quite a few geniuses, but no truly exceptional geniuses, not even anyone who can keep up with Mang Tianchi's pace.

Mang Tianchi is now advancing towards the Dou Sheng realm, but after reaching the Nine-Star Dou Zun realm, he understands just how big the gap is between Dou Zun and Dou Sheng!

To become a Dou Sheng from a Dou Zun, without special opportunities, one needs to follow the path of Nine Revolutions to become a Saint. Nine Revolutions to become a Saint involves nine rounds of Dou Qi condensation and compression.

When one is at the peak of Dou Zun, and their Dou Qi is full and cannot be increased, they need to condense and compress all of their Dou Qi to create an empty space in their body that can accommodate new Dou Qi. Once the Dou Qi is full again, they can continue to condense it.

The Mangtian Ruler has now been compressed seven times, and according to his cultivation level, he is now a seventh-level Dou Zun!

Mang Tianchi felt that he could complete the remaining two transformations within a dozen years, and then take another step to become a half-saint. However, this step had blocked many people.

Even among the imperial clans, many are stuck at this level.

Mang Tianchi plans to stay at Canaan Academy for a year or two, and then travel around to find a suitable place for himself. If he can find a Void Thunder Pool and refine one or two Black Demon Thunders, Mang Tianchi's path to becoming a Battle Saint will be secure!

. . . . . .

It has been a month since Xiao Li absorbed the strange fire. In fact, as early as the seventh day, Mang Tianchi had already realized that Xiao Li had successfully subdued the Fallen Heart Flame, but he had not yet woken up.

"Hmm, by taking advantage of the properties of the Fallen Heart Flame to temper qi and refine bones, the accumulated medicinal power in the body is completely digested? And it doesn't convert all of that medicinal power into cultivation."

Instead, he completely integrated the medicinal power into his body, further enhancing his talent. Heh, this kid didn't lose his way because of the rapid improvement in his cultivation.

With the medicinal power accumulated in his body, he could easily rise to the level of Dou Huang. Heh, interesting lad. Perhaps in the future, a Dou Zun powerhouse of considerable strength will emerge in Zhongzhou.

With Mang Tianchi's cultivation level, he naturally saw what Xiao Li was doing, and he felt that Xiao Li's approach was correct.

Xiao Li had consumed too many pills, and the medicinal power accumulated in his body, which would become a burden over time. He could only digest it. However, Xiao Li felt that directly improving his cultivation level was indeed good in the short term, but it might not be sustainable in the long run.

The medicinal effects will at most make him a Dou Huang, but for him personally, becoming a Dou Huang is only a matter of two or three years. There's no rush; he can just keep taking pills as soon as he gets the Fallen Heart Flame.

Xiao Li planned to integrate the medicinal power into his body to enhance his talent. He could distinguish between Dou Zong talent and Dou Zun talent.

Besides, Old Master Wang did so much for him to build his foundation, he would never do something that would destroy his own foundation.

call--

Xiao Li exhaled a breath of stale air, the sound of which immediately woke up the elders around him.

The elders waited here for a month to protect Xiao Li; not one of them left. After all, witnessing the complete subjugation of the strange fire was worthwhile.

"Hmm, an eight-star Dou Wang, not bad, not bad. Solid foundation. The tempering of your body with the strange fire has transformed your body, Dou Qi, and soul. Your soul has reached the late stage of the mortal realm. Not bad, not bad."

Mang Tianchi patted Xiao Li on the shoulder with great satisfaction, then suddenly thought of something.

"Kid, you don't have any body-refining techniques yet, do you? It's a shame not to refine such a good body." Mang Tianchi took out a crimson scroll from his storage ring.

"The Earth-rank intermediate combat skill, 'Heavenly Blazing Demon Body,' is a fire-attribute body-forging combat skill with considerable power. Especially since you already possess a different kind of fire, cultivating this body-forging combat skill with that fire will enhance its power even further."

Mang Tianchi hooked his arm around Xiao Li's shoulder and shoved the crimson scroll into Xiao Li's hand.

"Thank you, Dean."

"Hey~ Why are you being so polite with me, Dean? Go to Zhongzhou and cause some trouble in the future, so I can show off a lot." Mang Tianchi said with a smile.
