Inside the cave, Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes. In his dark pupils, a purple light suddenly flashed. After a moment, it gradually disappeared, and his pupils returned to the deep darkness again.

Unable to conceal his excitement, Xiao Yan clenched his fists fiercely and couldn't help but let out a long roar. In the blink of an eye, the originally yellow Dou Qi had turned purple, becoming even hotter, and the power had increased by a few points without exception.

What surprised Xiao Yan even more was that he felt that his Dou Qi storage had increased a lot again. He tried to circulate a large circle, and the Dou Qi he obtained was much stronger than before.

"Intermediate Yellow Rank."

Xiao Yan opened his eyes and confirmed that his martial arts technique had indeed been improved.

Although it was only a short step, it meant that it was indeed possible! If he swallowed the strange fire later, how amazing would the improvement be?

When Xiao Yan thought about his bright future, he was filled with excitement.

Moreover, after this devouring, his strength has broken through to the Nine-Star Fighter stage, and he can break into the Grand Fighter stage at any time, which brings him much closer to the cultivation goal set by Han Li.

Half a month passed. During this period of time, Xiao Yan stopped accumulating Dou Qi and started to cultivate new Dou Qi.

Improving strength too much in a short period of time can easily lead to an unstable realm. Xiao Yan does not want this to happen, becoming a person with only cultivation but a mere show.

He worked hard to cultivate his fighting spirit, making sure he could do it as easily as his own arm.

"call!"

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Xiao Yan looked up and found that he was still some distance away from the top of the mountain. This was a method he had come up with, carrying the Black Flame Sword, without the Wind and Thunder Wings, and climbing almost vertically from the bottom of the mountain to the top.

The Black Flame Sword has the effect of suppressing Dou Qi, which is very suitable for Xiao Yan's current training direction. Even if he fails, he has the Wind and Thunder Wings to remedy it, so he doesn't have to worry about falling.

"Hey!"

With the end of the last climb, Xiao Yan reached the top of the mountain and completed today's training. As he was looking at the beautiful environment inside the valley, a strong wave came from the storage ring hanging on his chest.

Xiao Yan's face was full of surprise, and soon, a familiar breath emanated from him, it was Han Li's breath.

Han Li has come out of seclusion!

In the storage ring space, Han Li opened his eyes and felt that his soul aura was much stronger than before, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

"I have recovered a lot now, and I have achieved half of my purpose of coming to the Monster Mountain Range."

"It's time to leave. I wonder how Xiao Yan's training progress is?"

Thinking of this, Han Li revealed his soul aura and sensed his surroundings before he released his cover to allow Xiao Yan to feel the fluctuations.

"Congratulations to Mr. Han for coming out of confinement!"

As soon as Han Li appeared, he saw Xiao Yan with his hands clasped together. His face was full of surprise and he was truly happy for Han Li.

Han Li nodded slightly, accepted the gift calmly, and began to examine Xiao Yan's cultivation results during this period. "How has your cultivation been during this period?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yan chuckled, and as if offering a treasure, a tangible purple fire popped out from his fingertips, and he began to tell the story.

".By swallowing the companion purple crystal source, a wisp of purple fire appeared in my body, and then I tried to swallow it. Now the Burning Technique has also been upgraded to a higher level."

Hearing this, Han Li was startled. He carefully scanned Xiao Yan's body with his soul power. After confirming that the other party was not lying, he showed a look of relief.

"Well done, you are blessed with good fortune, luckily nothing happened. You will need to be well prepared to devour strange fire in the future."

After nagging for a while, Han Li asked Xiao Yan to raise the problems he had encountered in cultivation during this period. Xiao Yan did not hesitate to raise the problems and Han Li answered them one by one.

Finally, Han Li hesitated for a moment, then said:

"Xiao Yan, are you willing to take me as your master?"

The other party has passed his test and has often done things that surprised him, but he can clearly feel the other party's sincerity.

Han Li really had the intention of accepting a disciple.

Xiao Yan was stunned when he heard this, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. Although he had been receiving Han Li's teachings, the other party had not officially accepted him as a disciple. Even though he had already regarded Han Li as his teacher and performed the etiquette of a teacher, he could not help but feel a little uneasy.

Now that Han Li had spoken, he had formally acknowledged this master-disciple relationship. Xiao Yan felt relieved, so how could he not be happy?

He then bowed deeply.

"Disciple Xiao Yan, greetings to Master!"

"good."

Han Li touched his lower handle, a smile emerged on his face, and after accepting Xiao Yan's salute, he helped him up.

"From now on, you will be my direct disciple."

Three days later, Xiao Yan stood on the top of the valley with the Black Flame Sword on his back, looking at the familiar scenery in front of him, and silently said in his heart: "Goodbye."

Afterwards, he sat on a fourth-order Golden Mountain Eagle, which was captured by Han Li using a secret method and used as a means of transportation.

The golden eagle flapped its wings, stirring up a strong wind, then rushed straight into the clouds and flew towards a farther place.

Chapter 65 Black Rock City

After leaving the Monster Mountain Range, Xiao Yan first came to the nearest town. After a brief rest, he replenished his supplies and rode on the Golden Mountain Eagle again, flying quickly towards Black Rock City.

Although this small town is the closest place to Black Rock City, it still took the Golden Mountain Eagle two full hours to vaguely see the huge outline of Black Rock City.

After he could see Black Rock City again, Xiao Yan commanded the Golden Mountain Eagle to land nearby. The Golden Mountain Eagle was placed outside the city by Han Li. Xiao Yan pretended to be a passerby and got on a carriage that was also heading to Black Rock City.

After paying the toll, Xiao Yan pulled down his black robe and sat in the corner of the carriage, seemingly taking a nap, but in fact he was discussing the next plan with Han Li.

Soon, Black Rock City appeared in front of everyone, and Xiao Yan also "slowly" woke up, standing on the carriage with everyone else, looking at the huge city that reflected a light red glow under the afterglow of the setting sun.

As the carriage got closer, Xiao Yan discovered that the huge city wall was actually built entirely of neatly-arranged black rocks. The old man driving the hornbow carriage said that the city wall had once withstood the combined attack of two Dou Wang masters without being shaken. This showed how strong the defense of the city wall was.

After paying the tax at the city gate, the carriage was allowed in smoothly.

After passing through the somewhat dark passage in the city wall for a while, his vision suddenly became clear. The noisy and bustling voices filled his ears, making Xiao Yan's head swell slightly.

Standing blankly on the street, Xiao Yan, who was used to the quietness of the Warcraft Mountain Range, was a little uncomfortable with the hustle and bustle of the city. He suddenly didn't know what to do.

"Let's find a place to stay for the night."

"Tomorrow we will go to the herbal medicine shop here to buy some ingredients to see if we can gather the ingredients for the Blood Lotus Pill."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded and walked towards the largest hotel in Black Rock City.

Xiao Yan, who had experienced treasure hunting in the cave, looting the Wolf Head Mercenary Group and the Amethyst Winged Lion King's cave, could be said to be worth a lot of money at this moment, so he naturally didn't care about the small amount of money for staying in the hotel.

After paying enough gold coins, Xiao Yan slowly walked into the No. 1 room under the respectful gaze of the front desk waiter. He then closed the door tightly and scanned the room with his soul power. After confirming that there was no surveillance, he threw away his clothes and lay directly on the soft big bed, enjoying the long-lost comfort.

Han Li appeared, floating in the room, looking at the lazy Xiao Yan, shook his head helplessly, and then said:

"Even though you are in a hurry, you should not be careless."

Seeing Han Li appear, Xiao Yan rolled over on the ground, sat up, smiled, scratched his head, and then asked:

"Teacher, what other materials do we need to refine this Blood Lotus Pill?"

Han Li said calmly: "In addition to the Blood Lotus Essence and Ice Spirit Flame Grass, we also need a fourth-level ice-attribute magic beast core."

The recipe left by Yao Chen required a third-order ice-attribute magic core, but after Han Li's own research and improvements, he discovered that a third-order magic core could not fully exert the medicinal properties of the Blood Lotus Pill, so he slightly improved the recipe.

"A fourth-level ice-attribute magic core." Xiao Yan tilted his head and fell back on the bed.

"There are so many monsters in the Monster Mountain Range, and I have fought so many of them, but I haven't seen a single ice-attributed monster."

"This ice-attribute magic core is truly rare."

Xiao Yan curled his lips, seeming a little unwilling.

Han Li looked at Xiao Yan, who was throwing a tantrum like a child, and smiled gently, then continued, "In addition to this Blood Lotus Pill, you need to prepare other things."

"Although it has the aid of body forging, this strange fire is not so easy to absorb."

"In addition to the Blood Lotus Pill, you also need to prepare the Ice Spirit Cold Spring and the Soul-Containing Spirit. If the Blood Lotus Pill is the 'armor' that protects you externally, then the Ice Spirit Cold Spring is the 'guard' inside you."

"It can protect you from being burned when you refine the strange fire. As for the soul-gathering function, it can open up a special small space in your body. This small space is used to store the strange fire. After all, with the destructive power of the strange fire, if you don't refine it thoroughly, then except for this empty space, everything else will be burned instantly. Including your cyclone and body."

After hearing Han Li's story, Xiao Yan opened his mouth, somewhat stunned. After a while, he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Teacher, I have never heard of these two things. Where do you want me to find them?"

"Don't worry, Na Ling. You just need to find the Ice Spirit Cold Spring and the fourth-level ice attribute magic core."

Among Yao Chen's relics, there was a bit of Na Ling, which must have been what he prepared in order to refine the strange fire, but he prepared too much.

Seeing that Xiao Yan was somewhat shocked, he consoled him, "The Black Rock City is a big city with a lot of wealth. It may not be impossible to collect all the materials you need."

If we can’t gather all these things… but we are lucky enough to encounter the strange fire, what should we do?” Xiao Yan rolled his eyes and asked.

"Then retreat and give up this opportunity. Although the strange fire is extremely precious, we only have one life." Han Li said without any hesitation.

Seeing that Xiao Yan was still somewhat unwilling, Han Li changed the subject.

"For your next route, I plan to have you go to the Tagor Desert." Without waiting for Xiao Yan to ask, Han Li continued, "According to my research, there is a high possibility that there is a strange fire hidden in the Tagor Desert."

"If there is a place around the Jia Ma Empire where the strange fire is most likely to exist, it is there. Any other place is unlikely. The environment of heaven and earth is not suitable for the birth of strange fire."

Xiao Yan became excited when he heard this. The Burning Art could devour strange fire and increase his strength, and he liked topics that could increase his strength the most.

The master and disciple discussed the matter for a while, and then Xiao Yan carefully asked the last question.

"Teacher, what if there is no strange fire in the Tagor Desert? Where should we go next?"

Han Li smiled slightly upon hearing this and said:

"Such spiritual objects of heaven and earth are naturally in the possession of virtuous people. If you fail to find them, it means that you are not destined to find them."

"You don't have to worry, kid. If you can't find it, I still have a Bone Spirit Cold Fire ranked eleventh on the Strange Fire List. You can devour it when the time comes."

When Xiao Yan heard this, he was shocked and his face showed surprise, but soon he showed a look of emotion.

"Teacher, how can this be possible? I dare not even think of this."

Han Li smiled and said, "It's okay. My strength has recovered a lot now, so it won't be a problem even without the Bone Spirit Cold Fire."

Chapter 66 Dan Wang Guhe

On the second day, as soon as the first rays of morning light spread across the earth, Xiao Yan left the hotel early. When he came out, he also asked about the location of the Alchemist Guild.

If we were to say where the most likely place to find those precious medicinal materials is, it would naturally be the Alchemist Guild. Only in the hands of an alchemist could such rare items exert their amazing effect of turning decay into magic.

Walking on the streets in the early morning, Xiao Yan recalled the boss's look of surprise and flattery when he inquired about the location of the Alchemist Guild. He secretly laughed and sighed. It seems that the noble status of the alchemist has indeed been deeply rooted in the hearts of every person in the Douqi Continent. Otherwise, these people would not have shown such awe when mentioning the Alchemist Guild.

Black Rock City is indeed one of the top cities in the Gama Empire. Although it is early morning, the streets are still bustling with people. Occasionally, there are guards walking in an orderly manner, and the neat sound of armor colliding with each other rings crisply in the sky in the early morning, like a morning bell.

Following the route given by the hotel owner, Xiao Yan slowly turned through several long streets. After walking for a long time, he slowly stopped and looked up at the majestic building that appeared before him.

The shape of this house is quite unique. The whole appearance roughly looks like a medicine cauldron. There are windows around the house that look like the fire holes of a medicine cauldron. On the high roof, a huge cauldron lid crawls down, covering the room underneath.
