It seems that things are very clear. Although my daughter did not fall in love at first sight and was madly in love with him, she did have some special feelings for Master Xiao Ling.

In fact, Tang Zhen had no complaints about Xiao Ling. Xiao Ling was able to refine an eighth-grade elixir at such a young age. This talent was obvious to all, and his future achievements would surely be limitless.

Although his daughter was also excellent, she was still a little behind Xiao Ling. If the two of them could go hand in hand, it would undoubtedly be a very happy ending for Fenyan Valley.

But in the final analysis, as a father, seeing his precious daughter being so close to another man, it is inevitable that he will have some complicated emotions in his heart. This feeling is difficult for any father to avoid.

Tang Zhen sighed softly in his heart and decided not to pay too much attention to the interaction between the two people behind him. Sometimes, turning a blind eye is also a way to make himself feel at ease.

At this moment, Qing Lin, who was originally sitting in the guest seat, also came over and naturally took Xiao Ling's arm. She looked in the direction of Tang Huo'er with a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

Tang Huoer noticed this scene, but she didn't take it too seriously. She had heard the girl address Xiao Ling before, and guessed that this was probably a little maid that Xiao Ling had taken in. She was indeed pretty and charming. In her opinion, such a little girl couldn't be her competitor.

As for why his cultivation level improved so quickly, with the help of Xiao Ling, an eighth-grade alchemist, it was natural for his cultivation level to improve.

Xiao Ling didn't take the subtle tension between the two women too seriously. As he walked, he gently stroked the soft fur of the mink in his arms, and occasionally interrupted them to respond to the occasional chat between the two women.

As they chatted leisurely along the way, the gravel path under their feet seemed to become shorter. Xiao Ling noticed that Tang Zhen in front of him suddenly stopped, and then he looked up.

At the end of the path, there is a building hidden among the lush trees. The three words "Fighting Skills Pavilion" can be vaguely seen on the door of the building.

"This is the Fighting Skills Pavilion of our Burning Flame Valley," Tang Huoer introduced softly beside Xiao Ling, "Usually this place is not open to the public..."

Xiao Ling nodded slightly, his eyes quickly scanning the surrounding woods. He could sense several hidden auras lurking here. Needless to say, they must be the guardians of the Fighting Skills Pavilion.

"Follow me," Tang Zhen waved to Xiao Ling and said, "The Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire is the top secret technique of our Burning Flame Valley. Only here can it be taught in the most complete way."

As he said this, he took the lead and walked towards the magnificent building. Xiao Ling hurriedly followed, with a hint of urgency in his steps. After all, he had spent a lot of effort to get this opportunity.

At the moment when the four people stopped in front of the Fighting Skills Pavilion, three figures descended from the top of the pavilion like flying birds. After landing, three old men in red robes were revealed. After revealing their figures, they bowed respectfully to Tang Zhen.

"Three elders, please open the fighting skills pavilion." Tang Zhen waved his hand casually and said calmly.

Hearing Tang Zhen's words, the three elders who exuded a powerful aura glanced at Xiao Ling and Qing Lin, then nodded in agreement.

They gestured at the same time, forming complex and mysterious seals, and beams of fiery red light immediately shot out from their palms and headed straight for the tightly closed door of the pavilion.

The moment the red light hit the door, ripples like water waves appeared on the door. Then with a creaking sound, the door slowly opened, revealing a hidden passage behind the door.

As the door slowly opened, Tang Zhen took the lead and walked into the depths of the pavilion first, followed by Xiao Ling and Tang Huo'er.

As Qinglin was not a member of Fenyan Valley and did not have the qualifications like Xiao Ling to enter and check out the fighting skills, she found a place to sit in the rest area near the entrance and waited quietly for them to come back.

As soon as he passed through the door, the light around him suddenly dimmed. In front of him were rows of neatly arranged tall bookshelves, which were filled with various colorful scrolls. Tang Zhen did not stay here for long, but went straight upstairs.

This pavilion has three floors. Xiao Ling and the others followed Tang Zhen and walked all the way to the top third floor before stopping.

The third floor of the Fighting Skills Pavilion was not actually too big. At first glance, it felt a bit empty. In the four corners, the light was dense, as if forming a small light domain. Outside of these lights, the air seemed to be a bit distorted, and people could clearly feel that everything on this floor was under special protection.

"Don't touch the items here casually, otherwise you might get into unnecessary trouble." Tang Zhen reminded Xiao Ling softly, and then walked towards the central area of ​​this floor.

There, a ball of red light slowly rotated in the air. Tang Zhen walked forward and quickly tapped the red light several times with his ten fingers. As he moved, the red light gradually dissipated, and finally a fist-sized red crystal ball was revealed.

The crystal ball was suspended in the air, red and transparent. At first glance, it seemed that the sphere contained thousands of mysterious runes, each of which flashed an alluring light. The whole scene looked mysterious and charming.

“This is the inheritance crystal of our Fenyan Valley. It not only contains the most complete practice method of the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire, but also records the improvements and insights of predecessors on this practice…” Tang Zhen said with a faint smile on his face.

Xiao Ling nodded slightly. He was not unfamiliar with the inheritance crystal, so he did not show too much surprise. He asked calmly: "Then when do we start?"

"Okay, you just need to connect your soul power to this inheritance crystal, and you will receive the complete inheritance of the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire." Tang Zhen explained, and then added, "After all, this is the forbidden area of ​​​​Fenyan Valley. I will always guard it here."

Xiao Ling nodded in understanding. The Fighting Skills Pavilion is the core of any sect, so Tang Zhen's protection is inevitable. Xiao Ling thought to himself that even if Tang Zhen wanted to stop him, he might not be able to stop him, but he didn't have any other thoughts.

"Let's get started." Xiao Ling said, ready to accept the inheritance.

Xiao Ling walked forward steadily, placing his hands lightly on the fiery red and clear crystal ball. Then his eyelids slowly fell, and the power of his soul slowly flowed out from his palms and merged into the crystal ball.

At the moment when the soul power touched the crystal ball, a subtle buzzing sounded in Xiao Ling's mind. Then, a large amount of information poured into his mind like a flood, one after another, without any pause.

With Xiao Ling's current soul power, absorbing this information is a piece of cake for him.

The moment he closed his eyes, he did not notice that when his soul power was injected into the crystal ball, a dazzling red light suddenly burst out from inside the crystal ball, and that red light instantly illuminated the entire space.

The intensity of the light made the entire Fighting Skills Pavilion seem to be on fire. The walls and pillars reflected a faint fiery red light, and the entire space seemed to be warm.

Tang Zhen and Tang Huoer, who were standing next to Xiao Ling, were so shocked by this sudden change that they opened their mouths wide and were speechless for a while. After a while, the two looked at each other and gasped at the same time, obviously deeply shocked by the scene before them.

This so-called inheritance crystal ball is not just a simple way to pass on secrets, it also has an additional function to test the talent of the practitioner. If someone has a high talent for this secret, the crystal ball will light up, and the higher the talent, the brighter the light.

The commotion caused by Xiao Ling was naturally the main reason why Tang Zhen and the others were so shocked...

Chapter 376: Wheel of Life and Death Pill

Tang Zhen still clearly remembered that Tang Huoer had made this crystal shine before, but compared with the light that Xiao Ling was making now, it was like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon.

However, thinking back to the amazing talent Xiao Ling had displayed in fighting spirit cultivation and alchemy skills, the shock in Tang Zhen and Tang Huoer's eyes gradually faded.

After all, Xiao Ling's strength was obvious to all. For him, showing the talent in practicing some secret technique seemed to be a very natural thing, just like a skill shown casually by a master, and it was not worth making too much of a fuss about.

The shock in Tang Zhen's eyes gradually faded away, replaced by a hint of regret.

He sighed softly and said, "Alas, if this kid is a disciple of our Burning Flame Valley, I'm afraid there will be another legendary figure like the old ancestor Burning Flame in our valley."

"Ancestor Fenyan?" Tang Huoer was slightly stunned when she heard Tang Zhen's words, and a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes, "Who is that?" She couldn't help but ask out loud.

Facing Tang Huo'er's question, Tang Zhen smiled, his eyes swept over Xiao Ling who was concentrating on the inheritance crystal ball, then he put his hands behind his back, looked up at the ceiling of the attic, a trace of respect flashed in his eyes,

"Ancestor Fenyan, he was the founder of our Fenyan Valley. However, too much time has passed, and many people have forgotten this top powerhouse who once shook the entire continent."

After hearing this, Tang Huo'er couldn't help but be slightly amazed. This was also the first time she heard about the deeds of Ancestor Fen Yan. It seemed that the passage of time had indeed caused many glorious past events to gradually fade from people's memories.

"Ancestor Fen Yan? He is not just strong." There was a hint of yearning in Tang Zhen's tone. He looked at Tang Huo'er's curious eyes and continued, "In that era, there were five truly powerful people on the Douqi Continent. These five people symbolized the top power on the continent. Ancestor Fen Yan was one of them. The strength of each of them reached an incredible level, almost touching the legendary Doudi level."

Tang Zhen's voice was low and full of respect, as if he was telling a distant and glorious story. His eyes seemed to have traveled through time and space, seeing that era when powerful people were as numerous as clouds.

"Emperor Dou..."

Tang Huo'er's pretty face was filled with shock. This title, without any extra words, contained an indescribable majesty, enough to make everyone feel insignificant, like dust, in front of these two words.

Thinking of the story that went viral in the outside world not long ago, how Xiao Ling, with the strength of a Dou Zong, challenged an elder of the Soul Palace and remained undefeated, and how he was an amazing alchemist at the eighth rank, and considering that he was only in his early twenties, Tang Huoer couldn't help but agree in her heart that Xiao Ling was indeed qualified to compete with those top strong men of the era.

Or to be more precise, among his peers, he was simply the strongest being that no one could match. Among the people she knew, she had never seen anyone who could surpass Xiao Ling among their peers.

However, Tang Huoer always had a vague premonition in her heart. She did not express this feeling out loud, but just kept it in her heart.

If Xiao Ling continues to grow like this, who knows, he might not just stay at the realm of Dou Sheng, or even trace back to the legendary realm of Dou Di, which may not be impossible...

Tang Zhen sighed deeply, and said nothing more. He just waved his sleeves lightly to sweep away the dust on the ground, and then sat down cross-legged, ready to wait for Xiao Ling to wake up. Seeing this, Tang Huoer had no choice but to sit down and accompany him silently.

They sat like this for nearly half a day. During this time, Xiao Ling's body was like a statue, motionless and still.

In the empty attic, the fiery red crystal ball continued to emit a dazzling red light, illuminating the entire space as bright as day. Xiao Ling stood next to the crystal ball, his hands still stretched forward. At this time, his skin seemed to be faintly flashing with red light, looking mysterious and strange.

"Why hasn't he woken up yet? When I accepted the inheritance, I only had an hour to complete it..." Tang Huo'er held her chin, her white fingers gently supporting her cheek, her eyes fixed on the motionless Xiao Ling, and finally couldn't help but break the silence.

"At that time, you didn't absorb all the experience and improvements of your ancestors in the crystal ball in order to save trouble. Xiao Ling is different. He chose to absorb everything."

"Those experiences are vast and boundless. Even though Xiao Ling's soul power is strong and it is not difficult to receive them, the transmission speed of the crystal ball is limited, so it will naturally take a long time."

Tang Zhen glanced at his daughter with a hint of reproach in his eyes, as if he was still upset about her laziness.

"After I digest the experience I have absorbed, I can continue to absorb it, right?" Tang Huoer stuck out her tongue and laughed.

"Ah, you are such a headache. You are actually very talented. If you can be more serious, the position of the master of Fenyan Valley will definitely be yours in the future. By then, when you have enough strength, those old guys who bother you won't dare to nag you anymore." Tang Zhen shook his head as he spoke, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"I have also carefully examined the eighth-grade Fire Bodhisattva Pill. Not only can it cure the injuries you sustained from your last attempt to subdue the Nine Dragons Thunderbolt Fire, but because this pill is made from strange fire, it should be of great help to you in subduing the strange fire. Afterwards, I will help you again so that you can successfully subdue the Nine Dragons Thunderbolt Fire."

After a slight pause, Tang Zhen continued, with a hint of doting in his tone, and it was obvious that he was both blaming and distressed for his daughter.

"Yeah..., don't worry, with the help of that pill, I will definitely not fail..." Tang Huoer nodded quickly, as if he wanted to end the topic as soon as possible to prevent his father from continuing to nag.

The scene after she subdued the Nine Dragons Thunder Flame involuntarily emerged in her mind, and she imagined whether she could achieve her original goal and suppress Xiao Ling's flame with her flame. That scene made her both excited and a little nervous.

"Tsk!" Tang Zhen couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head helplessly. His eyes suddenly turned to the crystal ball.

The red light in the crystal ball was fading away rapidly, but a layer of red glow appeared on Xiao Ling's body.

After a while, Xiao Ling's eyelids trembled slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes.

"Awake?" Seeing Xiao Ling waking up, Tang Zhen immediately stood up with a hearty smile on his face.

Xiao Ling took a deep breath, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded slightly.

As his mind changed, a profound cultivation technique immediately appeared in his mind. This was the complete version of the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire.

It not only includes the cultivation method of the first transformation, but also the second and third transformations are detailed one by one.

"Finally got it." He sighed to himself.

After mastering the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire, he could start to try to condense the clan emblem. Although the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire in Burning Flame Valley was only one step away from what Xiao Xuan had mastered, it was just this one step away.

Xiao Ling thought to himself that maybe if he did a little research, he could complete this last step.

"The Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire can indeed greatly enhance your strength in a short period of time, but the energy contained therein is quite violent, so you must be extremely careful when using it." Tang Zhen kindly reminded.

Xiao Ling nodded. He had known this for a long time. After all, he had practiced the first transformation of the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire for many years, and he had already mastered how to control this violent energy.

After leaving the Fighting Skills Pavilion, Xiao Ling found that it was already late. The setting sun was like a shy girl, half-hiding between the mountains. The reddish sky revealed a different kind of beauty that made people stop and admire it.

"Miss Qinglin, I've gone to rest. It's really getting late now. Master Xiao Ling, you've been tired all day too. Why don't you go to rest early?" Tang Zhen said with a bright smile on his face.

"Tomorrow morning, I'll personally take you to the treasure house in Burning Flame Valley. You can take whatever treasures you like. Consider it our small token of gratitude for refining the eighth-grade Fire Bodhisattva Pill. What do you think?"

"Well, since Master Tang is so enthusiastic, I will obey your orders." Xiao Ling pondered for a moment, then gladly accepted the proposal. The rush along the way really made him not have a good rest, now it was time to relax.

Besides, they insisted on sending something to my door, and it would be too unkind for me to refuse. Moreover, this was not for nothing. I was only going to refine a seventh-grade elixir, but I managed to upgrade it to an eighth-grade one, so I deserved to get more in return.

Moreover, the Burning Flame Valley is the legacy left by the Nine-Star Fighting Saint. Although its reputation has faded over the past thousand years, who can say for sure whether there will be some eye-catching treasures hidden in the treasure house?

Immediately afterwards, Tang Zhen called over a disciple from Fenyan Valley and asked him to lead the way and take Xiao Ling to the small courtyard where Qing Lin was temporarily staying.

……

In a courtyard deep in the Burning Flame Valley,

In the yard, under the fiery red fire mulberry tree, Xiao Ling lazily leaned on a recliner, his legs crossed casually, looking both relaxed and comfortable.

In his arms, the little mink was sitting comfortably, its two pairs of little paws curiously flipping through several scrolls. These scrolls were extraordinary, they were all kinds of elixir prescriptions that Xiao Ling had collected over the years, if they were placed outside, each scroll would be enough to cause a sensation, and they were definitely priceless treasures.

"The effects of these pills are really varied. They are used for all kinds of purposes, including cultivation, saving lives, and even maintaining pregnancy. Moreover, each effect is more amazing than the other. I, Master Diao, have really broadened my horizons this time." Little Diao couldn't help but smacking his lips in admiration as he flipped through the prescriptions.

“It seems that in your Douqi Continent, alchemists are indeed more popular than the talisman masters in our Tianxuan Continent, and the power of these pills is also powerful enough.” Xiao Diao said, with a gleam of envy in his eyes.

"If I could get these rare elixirs to help, with the power of our Sky Demon Marten clan, resources would not be a problem at all. By that time, my cultivation would definitely be much stronger than it is now, and maybe I would even have a few more abilities to save my life." Little Marten imagined it, and couldn't help revealing a bit of regret on his face.

"Alchemists have a high status, but it is still a supporting profession after all. The problem with most alchemists is that they are not strong enough. Look at the talisman masters in the Profound Sky Continent. They can both refine weapons and fight. They are multi-talented."
