Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, who was kidnapped to another world

"What?! You're going to teach him the method for condensing the Ancient Whirlpool Talisman?!" Little Marten's shriek echoed in Lin Dong's mind. "Do you even know the value of the method for condensing a natal spirit talisman?!"

After Lin Dong began cultivating, the little sable that had been hiding in the stone talisman dared to come out and then heard Lin Dong say that he was going to give Xiao Yan the method of condensing his natal spirit talisman.

"Of course I know, but this isn't the Tianxuan Continent," Lin Dong rolled his eyes inwardly. If he had known Little Marten would get so excited, he wouldn't have told her. "Besides, after that moment, you've understood Xiao Yan's character, haven't you?"

Being kind to others is Lin Dong's view of Xiao Yan. Of course, there's no need to emphasize his extraordinary talent.

"Even if you say that..." Little Marten's voice betrayed her hesitation, "No, the method for condensing the Ancient Vortex Rune cannot be taught to him. After all, this thing is related to the Devouring Ancestral Rune, and even if they are not on the same continent, the number of people who can cultivate it must be limited."

"I used to have quite a few methods for condensing natal spirit seals. Wait a minute, I'll find one suitable for that guy named Xiao Yan." Little Marten said this and tried to crawl into the stone talisman.

'What about the Divine Movement Chapter? Is that alright?'

Lin Dong quickly followed up with a question, which was also a way of teasing Xiao Diao. After all, the mental training method that Lin Dong was currently cultivating was taught by Xiao Diao. Only the Divine Movement Chapter belonged to him. If he wanted Xiao Diao to bring out something better, he could only provoke him like this.

'You have the nerve to teach that kind of trash? Just wait, I'll find someone better!'

After saying that, the little sable ran straight into the stone talisman, looking like it wouldn't come out unless it got some good stuff.

With the help of the Grade 3 Soul-Returning Liquid, Lin Dong only spent half a minute to restore his soul power. After opening his eyes and finding Xiao Yan busy with something on the side, he simply activated his soul ring, preparing to directly absorb the third soul ring and advance to the Heavenly Origin Realm.

At this moment, Lin Dong's mental strength and physical fitness were weaker than Xiao Yan's before absorbing the Ice Flame Wolf Soul Ring, and the age of the Soul Ring he absorbed was slightly higher than that of the Soul Ring absorbed by Xiao Yan. Therefore, it took a full hour for Lin Dong's breathing to calm down.

"Phew, looks like it's almost over." Relieved, Xiao Yan had initially thought Lin Dong had misjudged his physical abilities when he discovered that Lin Dong had taken more than half an hour to absorb this soul ring. He had simply sat down opposite Lin Dong. Now, he was finally at ease.

After a while, Lin Dong slowly opened his eyes.

"Hey, Chenggong... What are you doing?" Xiao Yan, who was about to greet him, was startled by a transparent flame that flashed past in front of him.

"Ah, sorry, I didn't notice you were sitting across from me." After seeing Xiao Yan sitting opposite him, Lin Dong, who was about to take a look at his spiritual flame, quickly withdrew his flame.

"Wait, that flame you just saw... wasn't it a physical entity? It felt like it was made of soul power." Compared to Lin Dong's apology, Xiao Yan's attention was now completely focused on the transparent flame that flashed past him.

“That’s right, it’s the Soul Flame.” Lin Dong nodded.

"Can...can this be shared with others?"

Xiao Yan became excited. The Dragon Technique was a very good soul technique, but it did not record any combat-type soul skills. Without a doubt, the Soul Flame that Lin Dong used earlier was a fantastic combat-type soul skill!

Moreover, its uses might extend beyond just combat!

Chapter 17 The First Flame Fusion (Part 1)

"Do you want to learn? I'll teach you."

Lin Dong, who was already planning to tell Xiao Yan about cultivating spiritual power, gave an affirmative answer after hearing Xiao Yan's question.

"Are you sure it's okay? Won't your family make things difficult for you?"

After asking "Can this be shared?", Xiao Yan regretted it a little. He felt that his actions were like taking advantage of someone's kindness. So when he heard Lin Dong's affirmative answer, his first reaction was that Lin Dong was accommodating him.

"It's nothing important," Lin Dong shrugged indifferently. "Besides, it's not a unique skill. There are actually many people who know this move. People like you just lack someone to guide you through it."

There are indeed many talisman masters, but that's in the Tianxuan Continent. In this Douluo Continent, Lin Dong is the only talisman master, but as long as he doesn't tell anyone, no one will know this.

"Then... thank you." Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Lin Dong didn't seem reluctant.

"Oh, right, this is for you." Then, Xiao Yan took out a piece of paper covered with writing and handed it to Lin Dong.

"This is..."

Lin Dong took the paper and looked at the words written on it, feeling somewhat confused.

"I have written down every step of the recipe for the Soul-Returning Elixir. Even someone with no prior knowledge can make the Soul-Returning Elixir by looking at what is written on this paper and experimenting a few times."

"The only problem is that the Soul Returning Liquid only works well for Soul Masters below the Soul Saint level. The effect on Soul Masters above the Soul Saint level is expected to be halved, or even more. However, after a while, I should be able to test a Soul Returning Liquid that can work on Soul Saints and even Douluo. Then I will give you the upgraded formula."

Xiao Yan's face was full of confidence. Although he could not be called a qualified alchemist at present (after all, he had never refined a real pill), he had experimented with the Soul-Returning Liquid, which was equivalent to a third-grade Qi-Returning Pill, little by little!

"This...is too precious, isn't it?" Lin Dong's expression was somewhat subtle.

He really couldn't understand why Xiao Yan would treat someone he had only known for a short time so generously.

"What's so precious about it?" Xiao Yan smiled brightly and waved his hand. "These are all things I experimented with myself. I can give them to whomever I want, and even my father has no right to stop me!"

"I see..." Lin Dong smiled awkwardly and re-examined the pill formula in his hand. After all, Xiao Yan meant well, and even if it would be useless when they returned to Tianxuan Continent, he still had to take a good look at it now.

"By the way, what's after the names of these medicinal herbs?"

Then, in the next second, Lin Dong realized that this pill formula was not simple.

"Oh, it's about the medicinal properties of the herbs," Xiao Yan explained considerately. "Because this prescription was entirely devised by myself, and I even named many of the herbs myself, I've noted down the medicinal properties of the herbs for you."

"If a certain medicinal herb is very rare, or belongs exclusively to a certain sect, your family can find a similar medicinal herb to replace it. Moreover, because the medicinal properties are similar, the refining methods of the substitute medicinal herb are also very similar. After a few tries, you can directly replace one or even all of the medicinal herbs listed above!"

This is the most valuable aspect of the Soul-Returning Liquid that Xiao Yan gave away. As long as Lin Dong's elders have some foresight, they can rely on this pill formula to ensure the family's continued prosperity!

perhaps……

"This is beyond precious..." After Xiao Yan's explanation, Lin Dong's gaze towards the pill formula changed.

I initially thought it was just a simple souvenir, but if everything on it can be replaced, then the Lin family's foothold will extend beyond Qingyang Town to Yan City, and even Tiandu County...

Noticing that Lin Dong's eyes were gradually becoming more intense, Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried that this thing would have little effect on Lin Dong, but since it could be of use, it was naturally the best thing.

"Hurry up and put your things away. Now tell me what this Soul Flame is." After giving him this reminder, Xiao Yan couldn't wait to learn about this Soul Flame, which would be extremely useful to him.

"Hmm," Lin Dong nodded, storing the pill formula in his hand into his soul tool. "Before discussing the spiritual fire, I need to explain spiritual power to you first—"

After omitting the words "talisman master," Lin Dong began to explain things related to mental power to Xiao Yan.

From the idea that spiritual power is another way to drive soul power, to the cultivation methods of spiritual power, to the Niwan Palace, and finally to the spiritual fire that Xiao Yan was eager to learn about.

"...The Spiritual Flame is actually a spiritual flame that can only be born when spiritual power is condensed to its extreme. This flame has almost no harm to the physical body, but it has an exceptionally strong corrosive power on the spirit..."

As Lin Dong explained, Xiao Yan gradually understood the difference between the spiritual power Lin Dong spoke of and the soul power he himself had mentioned. Then, when Lin Dong explained about the spiritual fire, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up—

The flames born from the extreme concentration of spiritual power have an corrosive effect on spiritual power, which is much more effective than the impact of simple soul power.

"Besides being used as a means of attack, the Spirit Fire is also very suitable for forging weapons..."

Chi!

Before Lin Dong could finish speaking, he saw flames flickering in Xiao Yan's eyes. Then, accompanied by a brief friction sound, a nearly transparent flame appeared in front of Xiao Yan.

"You succeeded?!"

Although Lin Dong knew that it wouldn't be difficult for Xiao Yan, a Heavenly Talisman Master, to ignite the Spiritual Flame, he found it hard to accept that Xiao Yan had done it before he even explained how to ignite the Spiritual Flame.

"It seems pretty simple..."

Xiao Yan's spiritual fire slowly floated to the palm of his right hand. After a brief gaze, he flipped his left palm, and the Ice-Gold Flame that Lin Dong had seen not long ago appeared.

"Wait, what do you think you're doing?!"

Upon discovering that Xiao Yan held a ball of flame in each hand and was gradually bringing his hands closer together, Lin Dong became somewhat unsettled and shouted, attempting to bring Xiao Yan back to his senses.

“I was thinking that I controlled both kinds of flames myself… although there were subtle differences in the control methods.”

"Then, these two flames should be able to... fuse successfully!"

Amid Lin Dong's somewhat terrified expression, the flames on Xiao Yan's hands touched. Nothing strange happened; there was no explosion or roar. They simply merged together in an ordinary way, without even much difference in color.

"Why don't you try to take it back directly?"

Looking at the purple flame in Xiao Yan's hand, Lin Dong's eyes also lit up. "Then let's see if it's fused together or separate when it's summoned."

"no problem!"

Xiao Yan licked his lips; he realized that things were starting to get interesting.

Chapter 18 The First Flame Fusion (Part 2)

After making preparations, Xiao Yan began to circulate the Burning Technique.

As the Burning Technique was activated, the purple flame that had fused with the spiritual fire gently merged into Xiao Yan's body, just like the previous Ice-Gold Flame, and traveled through Xiao Yan's meridians along the path of the Burning Technique.

"Can you summon the spiritual fire again?" Lin Dong asked softly after the flames had completely merged into Xiao Yan's body.

"I'll give it a try."

Nodding, Xiao Yan tried to summon the spiritual fire in the same way he had just done.

a long time.

"I can't summon it. It seems to have completely merged with the Ice-Gold Flame." The failure to summon the spiritual flame actually boosted Xiao Yan's spirits. "Moreover, the Ice-Gold Flame is in a very stable condition, just like it hasn't merged with the spiritual flame at all!"

Most importantly, Xiao Yan discovered that with each repetition of the Burning Technique, the intensity of the flames within his body was subtly increasing. Although there was no concrete evidence, he felt that the final intensity of these flames would be equal to his soul power... that is, his mental power!

"What about the nature of the flames?" Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Lin Dong's spirits lifted.

"I... Ah, let's not test it now. Let's search this cave first and see if there's anything else of value?"

Just as Xiao Yan was about to conduct the test, he suddenly realized that neither the initial freezing effect of the Ice-Gold Flame nor the effect of the Spiritual Fire on mental power could be tested when there were only the two of them. Therefore, he temporarily suppressed his desire to test and called Lin Dong to start raiding the Azure Flame Dragon Beast's lair.

However, it turned out that the only thing the Azure Flame Dragon Beast possessed was the pile of gold and silver treasures outside. Although the cave inside was also spacious, the two of them only found two dragon eggs in the end.

night.

"Hmm, it tastes pretty good, much better than the Lightning Rabbit I had at noon."

Holding a dragon egg the size of half a human head and munching on it, Xiao Yan gave the egg extremely high praise for its taste, asking, "Are you just going to keep that egg like this?"

Xiao Yan looked at Lin Dong, who had a dragon egg beside him, with a hint of amusement.

Lin Dong sighed helplessly, "I also want to put them in the soul tool, but this soul tool can't store living things. All the eggs I put in this afternoon died. Even if it's for the sake of my pet, I can't feed it a dead egg."

Lin Dong was also somewhat desperate. Considering that the Azure Flame Dragon Beast contained dragon blood, he had said in the afternoon that he planned to take the egg back for Xiao Yan to eat. However, he did not expect that the soul tool in his hand could not store living things...

"Hmm? It tastes really good." Lin Dong, who was getting more and more heartbroken, took a bite of the dragon egg that Xiao Yan had given him and gave it a high score as well.

"Anyway, you've already obtained your third spirit ring, and you can go home in the next day or two, so there's no need to rush," Xiao Yan shrugged. "Speaking of which, aren't you planning to find a kind of beast fire? You've seen the power of a spiritual fire enhanced with real fire, haven't you?"

In the afternoon, the two conducted various tests on Xiao Yan's new flame, which had fused two flames. The final results showed that, in addition to possessing the characteristics of the two flames used as fusion materials, the new flame had also greatly improved in power.

If we were to rate the two previous flames numerically, the Ice Gold Flame would be 2, the Spirit Flame would be 10, and the newly created flame would be around 15.

Furthermore, because it contains two properties, Xiao Yan is willing to call this newly born flame the twenty-fourth type of strange fire!

Although this 'strange fire' is not even as strong as a sixth-order beast fire—Yao Lao's sharp comment.

“I don’t need to find a beast fire separately,” Lin Dong accepted the idea of ​​beast fire after Xiao Yan’s explanation. “After all, my third soul ring can create flames for me anytime, anywhere. I just need to fuse my spiritual fire with the flames created by my third soul skill when needed.”

In the afternoon, besides testing Xiao Yan's flames, Lin Dong also made some attempts, and the results were equally pleasing. From now on, Lin Dong's flames can be used as a half-trump card.
