Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 109 Danhun Realm, Advancing to Advanced Mortal Realm

Xiao Yan, who was sitting like an old monk in meditation, gradually became faint and his breath became extremely shallow, his aura ethereal and uncertain.

But inside the medicine cauldron in front of him, a thunderous roar resounded incessantly, as if heavenly thunder had stirred up earthly fire.

An extremely terrifying soul force roared and swirled within the medicine cauldron.

Under this spiritual power, the increasingly powerful Xuanhuang Flame, Yin Yang Twin Flame, Netherworld Poison Fire, and the strange fire formed by the fusion of the Three Thousand Burning Flames became even more docile.

Over the past six months or so, the Xuanhuang Flame, Yin Yang Twin Flame, and Netherworld Poison Flame have all grown further and are gradually breaking through the rankings on the Strange Flame Ranking.

If some high-level alchemists were here, they would probably be dumbfounded upon seeing Xiao Yan's performance.

Because of Xiao Yan's current state, in the alchemy world, it is called the "Danhun Realm".

Within this wondrous state, the power of one's soul will be amplified infinitely.

Unfortunately, not long after entering the Izumo Empire, Yao Lao went into the deep mountains to cultivate the soul skill "Plow Spirit" and study sword techniques in order to make the power of this soul skill stronger.

If they were here, they would surely be dumbfounded again.

Because the appearance of the Danhun Realm usually occurs when refining pills of grade seven or higher, Xiao Yan's current refining of a grade six pill is likely the first case in the Dou Qi Continent.

While in this state, though it may only be a fleeting moment, the infinitely amplified soul power ensures that there will be no failure rate in refining any elixir.

In other words, Xiao Yan will definitely succeed in refining pills in this state!

Xiao Yan was able to enter the Danhun Realm for two reasons: first, he had refined too many Rank 6 pills, and second, he had amazing comprehension.

With the abundant resources poured into the Yunyun Empire over the past two years, a great deal of essential alchemy techniques have been accumulated.

This doesn't mean that Xiao Yan lacks comprehension and needs a long time to accumulate knowledge before he can truly understand it.

Rather, the Danhun Realm is incredibly profound and rare, and even if one encounters it, the time spent there is merely a fleeting moment.

Each person's experience of reaching the Core Soul Realm is completely different. Among Yao Lao's many collections, there are only superficial records of the Core Soul Realm, which cannot provide any help to Xiao Yan.

There are many similar mysterious realms. The Danhun Realm is one that has been recorded and proven, and there are also some that exist but have not been recorded.

The truth exists; it just hasn't been discovered yet.

Even without Newton being hit by an apple, there would still be Kington and Tilton.

Cultivation techniques, combat skills, and secret methods are similar; the methods of cultivation and the ways of attack have long existed in the unseen realm.

It's just that cultivators are initially in a state of ignorance. As their cultivation progresses and they delve deeper, they develop research and insights, which leads them to discover better and stronger cultivation methods.

Xiao Yan understood this point, which is why he didn't examine everything he saw in detail.

Because he also wants to stand on the shoulders of giants and create even stronger methods!

He even breaks through these sudden insights with his extraordinary comprehension!

Without a doubt, the prescriptions and other materials collected by Yao Lao are a giant in Xiao Yan's path of alchemy.

Benefiting from the Danhun Realm, Xiao Yan's soul power was infinitely amplified. The extremely complex medicinal power within the medicine cauldron was not only completely condensed by him, but also without any useless consumption.

Normally, it would take Xiao Yan a long time to refine a Breakthrough Pill when he was at his peak, and he would not have the strength to refine a second one after that.

However, Xiao Yan has now entered a strange state where his soul power is infinitely amplified, and with his powerful strength, he forcibly condensed the pill into a rudimentary form in a short time.

The rudimentary pill was about the size of a longan, with a pitted and uneven surface that looked extremely unattractive, but it contained a powerful medicinal force.

The powerful soul force manipulated the flames, and the pitted pills absorbed the heat emanating from the flames, becoming rounder at a visible speed.

What would normally be a lengthy process became incredibly swift at this point.

Mysterious patterns appeared on the surface of the pill, making it seem as if it possessed intelligence, which was quite extraordinary.

Just as the Breakthrough Pill was completed, dark clouds suddenly gathered in the sky, instantly covering the entire Heavenly Poison City, with wind and clouds swirling and lightning flashing.

The sudden change startled both the Poison Sect and the Scorpion Sect in the midst of the battle. They stopped fighting, retreated, and looked up at the sky in astonishment.

"What's going on? It's happened before, but never like this," the red-robed old man gasped, horrified.

Wuya wasn't quite sure either: "Could it be that the quality of the Breakthrough Pill is much higher than that of the Imperial Pill? This would make the resulting celestial phenomena even more terrifying, as if lightning were falling."

"Ignorant!" Scorpion Mountain sneered. "Even if the Breakthrough Pill is extremely precious, it's still only a sixth-grade pill. Do you think it can attract the pill lightning that only seventh-grade pills produce?"

"So the Poison Sect has been preparing to refine the Breakthrough Pill these past few days. I need one to break through to the peak of the Dou Huang realm." Scorpion Mountain subconsciously licked his lips.

The instant Scorpion Mountain uttered his words, the dark clouds obscuring Heavenly Poison City seemed to be parted by an invisible hand, automatically splitting open a path to the heavens!

Sunlight streamed in, and a slender figure shot out from the ground like a sword that could cleave the heavens, as if it wanted to pierce the endless sky.

Sensing the immense power of this aura, all the powerful figures in Tiandu City turned their heads in awe.

Wuya was horrified. How could the Rock Protector have become so terrifying and unfathomable in such a short time?

When Xie Shan saw the infamous executioner Yan, the Protector of the Poison Sect, with his own eyes, he was also taken aback.

She seems even more powerful than rumored, and she's so young. Even if she spent ten or eight years cultivating in the womb before emerging, she still wouldn't have this kind of strength!

"You want the pills I refined?" Xiao Yan held the Breakthrough Pill in his hand, his dark eyes fixed on Scorpion Mountain.

Under the frenzied alchemy, his battle qi and soul power were greatly depleted and then rapidly recovered. Because of the 'Danhun Realm' fortuitous encounter just now, his soul power broke through to the advanced mortal realm, which is why the situation changed so drastically, unlike the birth of a typical sixth-grade pill.

The realm of the soul is divided into the mortal realm, the spiritual realm, the heavenly realm, and the emperor realm. The vast majority of people, even alchemists below the eighth rank, are mostly stuck in the mortal realm.

It should be noted that most Rank 8 pills possess extraordinary spirituality, and it is precisely because of this spirituality that they are able to reach the Rank 8 level.

No matter how outstanding an ordinary alchemist's alchemy skills are, if they cannot imbue the pills with spirituality, then the pills will never reach the eighth grade level.

Unbeknownst to him, Xiao Yan's soul power had reached an even more terrifying level, surpassing many alchemists.

Scorpion Mountain's battle aura wings suddenly flapped, and his withered hand reached straight for the pill that emitted a strong medicinal fragrance. He coldly and sharply shouted, "So what if you take it?"
