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

Chapter 474 Fiery Clouds and Watery Flames, One More Strange Flame

If one cultivates the Fire Cloud Water Flame using a secret method, the strange fire will be much gentler and will not require much effort.

Not long after Xiao Yan sat down, the door was suddenly opened gently, and a person slowly walked in.

On this moonlit night, the woman who arrived was dressed in green. Her smile was like a newly blossoming spring flower, bright and gentle. Her pretty face was like exquisite porcelain, with a faint blush.

Her eyes, brimming with a captivating charm, seemed to flow like a gentle spring stream. Those bright eyes, like two pools of autumn water, were deep and clear, exuding an ethereal and otherworldly aura.

With a full and graceful figure, she resembled a woman from the misty Jiangnan region, gentle and captivating. Time had etched a mature charm upon her, a charm that a young girl could never match. Her figure, swaying like a willow branch, exuded a natural allure.

When this woman appeared, the surrounding air seemed to soften, as if captivated by her gentle temperament.

The person who came was none other than Ruolin, the instructor from Canaan Academy.

Xiao Yu's strength improved by leaps and bounds, and at a young age he broke through to become a Dou Wang powerhouse, so he was naturally assigned to the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy.

But she was young after all, so the inner courtyard was specially granted permission for Instructor Ruolin to enter with her, to help Xiao Yu with her affairs on a daily basis.

As time went by, although Xiao Yu had become familiar with everything, Instructor Ruolin was not discarded after being put to use and remained in the inner courtyard.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Xiao Yan blinked, then stood up in surprise: "It's you?"

Instructor Ruolin entered gracefully, smiling gently, "Since the academy has arranged accommodations, how could it not arrange servants? The academy knows that I visited the Xiao family back then, so I am naturally the most suitable candidate."

Xiao Yan nodded slightly, thinking that his current achievements would be astonishing even in ancient families, let alone Canaan Academy.

"Xiao Yan..." Instructor Ruolin blinked her long eyelashes, unsure of how to address him.

The inner court elders and guardians were all shocked by this, so it was even more difficult for her, an ordinary mentor, to understand how Xiao Yan, who was much younger than her, could become an incredibly young Dou Zun powerhouse at that time.

Although I had met Xiao Yan before and knew that he was exceptionally talented, it had only been a few decades since then. How could he have leveled up in the Dou Huang realm, then broken through to Dou Zong, and finally reached the Dou Zun level?

Startled and terrified, Instructor Ruolin took a step forward and knelt down directly before Xiao Yan.

Even though Xiao Yan was exceptionally intelligent, he never expected that after Instructor Ruolin arrived, she would actually kneel down before him.

With a flick of her wrist, a gentle force was sent out, arriving before the force itself and causing Instructor Ruolin's voluptuous body to stand upright.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Yan asked, somewhat puzzled.

Today he discovered the secret of the ancient clan's Dou Di bloodline, and also thought of the secret method to upgrade the Golden Emperor's Burning Heaven Flame into the True Sun Flame. He was also just pondering the method to condense the Different Flame, Fire Cloud Water Flame. Although his mind was usually very sharp, at this moment he felt it was somewhat insufficient.

Although Instructor Ruolin's previous level as a Grand Master wasn't considered exceptionally talented, after entering the Inner Academy and cultivating for several years, with improved cultivation resources and time investment, she has now broken through to the Dou Ling level.

Completely unexpectedly, Xiao Yan was able to easily help him up after he suddenly knelt down. The power of a Dou Zun expert is truly terrifying.

Instructor Ruolin said somewhat dejectedly, "As an instructor at Canaan Academy, I was truly blind. I failed to see that Venerable Xiao Yan was an extraordinary genius, far beyond his station. I did many foolish things, even daring to call Venerable Xiao Yan 'Little Brother Xiao Yan'..."

At this point, Instructor Ruolin couldn't think of any way to atone for her sins, and suddenly a death wish arose in her heart. She looked up and said, "Kill me."

These words startled Xiao Yan. Although he was born into a wealthy family with many servants and maids, he did not have any harsh demands. He believed that everyone should do their own job, and that it was just a job. He never regarded the lives of these people as ants.

Since none of the servants in the household have died or been injured due to their strength, how could they have killed Xiao Yu's former teacher?

Xiao Yan composed himself and said, "If one's cultivation becomes so strong that one's parents and relatives have to kneel and greet one for miles, everyone would tremble at the mere mention of it. Under the clear sky, if there's not even anyone to speak to properly, what's the point?"

Xiao Yan explained it very clearly, which immediately brought a vivid picture to Ruolin's mind.

That's not something for the future; it's just that Xiao Yan's current strength is sufficient to meet the conditions he mentioned.

Xiao Yan's parents knelt to greet him, and the rest of the Xiao family, including Xiao Yu, also knelt ten miles away to welcome him. The people of the Jia Ma Empire trembled with fear upon hearing Xiao Yan's name; many died of fright.

The entire Jia Ma Empire was suddenly like a ghost town. As Xiao Yan's name spread, more people died of fear, and even members of Xiao Yan's clan trembled on their knees when they saw him.

Putting herself in Xiao Yan's shoes, Ruolin, though not as strong as him, thought that if her parents and hometown were to become like Xiao Yan described—almost deserted within a hundred miles, or if there were people there, they would be trembling relatives kneeling on the ground—life would be meaningless.

Instructor Ruolin breathed a slight sigh of relief. She was gentle by nature, but not one to be easily bullied. She was exceptionally resilient and had her own principles. However, Xiao Yan was simply too ridiculously strong. Thinking about her previous actions, she felt utterly hopeless.

Xiao Yan took a step forward and continued, "Instructor Ruolin, if others don't understand, surely you do too?"

Instructor Ruolin was still somewhat intimidated by Xiao Yan's strength. Suddenly, Xiao Yan asked her a question that she couldn't understand, and for a moment she couldn't think of what she didn't know.

Xiao Yan said, "The Black Corner Region and the Jia Ma Empire are extremely far apart, and I will not stay in the family to wait any longer. In fact, to prove a person's strength, it is not necessary to have an evenly matched battle. More than three hundred years ago, a Dou Huang powerhouse of the Jia Ma Empire, because a neighboring country launched a war, caused his relatives to suffer as innocent bystanders. In a fit of rage, he single-handedly slaughtered a ten-thousand-strong iron cavalry legion. That massacre caused rivers of blood to flow, and his fearsome reputation shocked the entire country and made many people understand just how ferocious a Dou Huang could be."

"It is precisely because you are good at adapting that you have avoided a lot of trouble and had many opportunities in the future, which has enabled you to reach your current strength," Xiao Yan said leisurely.

The path of cultivation is truly profound and complex. He went into seclusion twice, yet he still hasn't reached the peak of the Dou Qi Continent. Compared to the powerful figures of the Great Thousand World, he is far behind and needs to work even harder.

Instructor Ruolin had been enlightened by Xiao Yan once, but at that time Xiao Yan was only at the Dou Huang level. Although he was already very powerful, she had still personally witnessed that Hu Qian, the outer dean of Canaan Academy, was a Dou Huang powerhouse.

At this moment, Xiao Yan had become a Dou Zun powerhouse. His strength was so great that it was an unprecedented and astonishing event for Ruo Lin. A sense of fear immediately spread from the bottom of her heart. She was trembling with fear and lost all composure.

Considering that Xiao Yan was much younger than her, yet had twice offered her guidance, Instructor Ruolin blushed slightly, glanced at Xiao Yan stealing a glance, and softly asked, "Then how should I address you?"

"Keep it as usual," Xiao Yan waved his hand casually. It's better to focus on cultivation than to fuss over such trivial matters.

With her fear gone, Instructor Ruolin seemed to have come back to life.

A delicate dress hugged her tall figure, highlighting her shapely curves and making her appear extremely gentle.

Her slender waist was like a willow branch, followed by a high, firm curve, round and perky, with a perfect arc. Her long, shapely legs stood together, making her look so graceful and charming.

The natural breeze blowing in from the window gently lifted her silk robe, and the playful strands of hair at her temples danced in the wind, so ethereal and otherworldly, like a mature fairy who had mistakenly fallen to earth, so graceful that no one could feel any sense of disrespect.

Xiao Yan glanced at him and said, "I'm not a child anymore, why would I need anyone to serve me? I'll have to have a good talk with the academy's Grand Elder tomorrow."

"Please don't!" Instructor Ruolin took a step forward and quickly stopped her. "If you say that, the academy will think I haven't served you well and have offended you, and I'm afraid I will be punished."

Xiao Yan thought about it for a moment and felt that it made some sense. He naturally wouldn't care about such trivial details, but that didn't mean others would.

Perhaps it was because he had fewer distracting thoughts that his cultivation speed was even faster than his already extraordinary speed.

"Sigh." Xiao Yan sighed and nodded in agreement with Ruolin's words.

Upon seeing a Dou Zun-level expert for the first time, and so close at hand, Instructor Ruolin naturally began to carefully examine this legendary figure.

After several years, Xiao Yan's appearance had become increasingly ethereal due to the significant changes in his cultivation techniques. A glint of light flickered in his dark eyes, making him appear exceptionally gentle and profound. The blood-red flame mark on his forehead seemed to possess a captivating magic.

Instructor Ruolin murmured, somewhat lost in thought, "Little brother Xiao Yan, how did you cultivate to such strength?"

"It would be a long story if I were to tell it." Xiao Yan stretched. Since his coming-of-age ceremony, his cultivation and growth during this period had been very complicated. It wasn't until he came to Canaan Academy that the terrifying effects of his cultivation technique were revealed.

For a moment, Instructor Ruolin was lost in thought and blurted out what was on her mind.

This is only natural. When she first met Xiao Yan, he was only a Dou Huang level expert. How could he have jumped to the Dou Zun level in such a short time? The two guardians of Canaan Academy have cultivated for many years, but they are still just one step away from that level.

After saying that, Instructor Ruolin regretted it. Such rapid progress must be a major secret of cultivation. How could she tell an outsider like her?

Instructor Ruolin quickly added with a smile, "Since it's a long story, let's not go on. Brother Xiao Yan must be feeling a bit tired after cultivating for so long. Canaan Academy has a hot spring with water that has miraculous effects and can relieve fatigue."

After standing with Xiao Yan for a long time, Instructor Ruolin felt weak and limp for some reason, as if she were drunk, and leaned into Xiao Yan's arms.

Xiao Yan reached out and pulled Instructor Ruolin, whose body was as delicate as water, into his arms, and said with a smile, "It's just that it will take a while to explain. I didn't say I was refusing. Does the word of a Dou Zun expert not count?"

What's going on? Instructor Ruolin leaned against Xiao Yan's warm embrace, and for a moment she didn't want to get up. She wished she could stay here forever.

With the Super Fallen Heart Flame's power greatly increased, its effects will naturally also increase.

Now, Xiao Yan's body is not only surrounded by a terrifying protective layer, but the energy of heaven and earth is also greatly purified, forming a special domain.

The energy of heaven and earth purified by the Super Fallen Heart Flame, combined with the Heaven-Rank cultivation technique that Xiao Yan practiced, was far too pure for Instructor Ruolin.

This special domain is invisible and formless, unlike the usual simple defensive capabilities. Apart from a few terrifyingly powerful individuals at the Dou Sheng level, ordinary people cannot see any clues about it.

"I..." Instructor Ruolin blushed. Her actions seemed like she was throwing herself into Xiao Yan's arms and becoming his wife. Naturally, she had some qualifications, which was too misleading. But that was not what she thought.

But it feels so good. Instructor Ruolin snuggled closer to Xiao Yan.

"Didn't you say the hot spring water here is extremely effective? Let's go try it together." Xiao Yan picked up Instructor Ruolin by the waist, and his soul power swept around the surroundings, instantly locating the bathroom.

Xiao Yan was originally contemplating the condensation of Fire Cloud and Water Cloud, but after meeting Instructor Ruolin, he discovered that compared to Xiao Yu, Instructor Ruolin was simply a natural-born cultivator of the Fire Cloud and Water Cloud Secret Technique, with a compatibility level that was more than one level higher.

Besides compatibility in fighting spirit attributes, temperament and personality are also extremely important factors.

Compared to her mentor Ruolin, Xiao Yu is far inferior in temperament and personality.

Xiao Yan was never one to drag things out; he focused on condensing the Water Cloud and Water Flame first.

A pair of strong arms rested on the edge of the wooden tub. Xiao Yan leaned comfortably against the tub wall, enjoying the warmth of the water. He looked up at the woman with a face as beautiful as a lotus flower not far away and said, "Come over here. There are indeed some special features about her."

Instructor Ruolin's beautiful face flushed with embarrassment as she looked at the man moving so quickly, her alluring red lips slightly pouting.

Looking at this sunny and strong young man so closely, her heart suddenly fluttered like a deer, pounding wildly.

She never associated with such a bold person again. Ruolin remained chaste and pure. Although she was not young, she was still shy and virginal at this moment, with her jade cheeks flushed and her posture charming and alluring.

"Close your eyes, I need to do that." Instructor Ruolin awkwardly put her hands behind her back, like a shy little girl, and said sweetly and coquettishly.

Xiao Yan slowly closed his eyes, but under the terrifying soul perception, every move of Instructor Ruolin appeared in his mind, even more vividly than if he had seen it with his own eyes.

Her jade-like hands, trembling like onions and white jade, reached towards her waist, grabbed one end of the belt, and slowly pulled it.

Her long, shapely legs moved with light, graceful steps, each step swaying gently, her beauty radiant. Her face, like a moonlit flower, shone with a thousand rays of light, her eyes sparkling with a captivating, autumn-water-like charm. Her hands, like soft shoots, moved lightly, her skin as smooth and translucent as jade!

As she walked among the lotus blossoms, she waved her hand, and a colorful ribbon danced in the air, creating waves like ripples on a calm lake! The ribbon fell, and her silk robe loosened slightly!

As Instructor Ruolin's mature and alluring figure spun in place, her loose clothes fluttered and danced, swirling and swaying, more beautiful than a rainbow-colored raincoat dance!

She turned her head and smiled shyly, and a hundred charms were instantly born! Her delicate eyebrows opened like distant mountain peaks, and her thick, green hair was like spring mist!

With a wave of her delicate hand, Instructor Ruolin spun around, and as an exquisite outer garment fluttered down, she gracefully flipped and leaped into the air, revealing a classical beauty dressed only in a small garment.
