Chapter 230 Strength improvement
It can be said that the Yin-Yang Dual Flames grew up with Xiao Yan. In the beginning, they were only equivalent to beast fire, but Xiao Yan didn't know it. Later, they grew all the way and devoured the beast fire of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and then they barely reached the level of strange fire.

This time, the energy that swallowed the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire not only completely evolved into a real strange fire, but its power also surpassed the previous Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire.

"It seems that the Yin and Yang Dual Flames have truly grown into Strange Fires at this moment! It is estimated that it can now be ranked 18th on the Strange Fire List!" Xiao Yan said happily in his heart.

"You have gained a lot this time! Your physical strength is already comparable to that of a sixth-level magical beast, and your recovery ability has become extremely terrifying because of the power of the strange fire. The fact that you were beaten by Medusa for such a long time and you are fine is enough to explain everything!" Seeing that Xiao Yan wanted to change the subject, Yao Lao naturally would not insist on the topic of Medusa.

“Since my physical strength has reached the level of Dou Huang, how come I don’t even have the energy to resist in Medusa’s hands! Is the gap between Dou Huang and Dou Zong so huge?” Xiao Yan knew that his body had reached the level of Dou Huang, and with the evolution of the Yin-Yang dual flames, he could be said to be immortal. Naturally, he was very happy. However, he was surprised that he didn’t even have the strength to fight back in Medusa’s hands.

“Haha, the gap between Dou Huang and Dou Zong is naturally huge, but it’s too exaggerated to say that Dou Huang doesn’t even have the power to resist in front of Dou Zong. You don’t have the power to fight back because you can’t adapt to the sudden increase in strength, and you have no experience fighting against Dou Zong. There is no way around it, you can only rely on continuous fighting with others to become familiar with it.” Yao Lao said with a faint smile.

“So that’s how it is! It seems like the guy from Mo City needs to quickly restore his strength, otherwise it would be very uncomfortable to be without an opponent!” Xiao Yan’s mouth curled up slightly, thinking of the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong.

“After more than eighty days of calcination with the strange fire, not only has your body reached the level of a sixth-rank magical beast, but your soul level has also been raised to the great perfection of the ordinary grade. From now on, you can try to refine elixirs below the eighth grade. You are really a monster!” Yao Lao felt a little annoyed when facing such a talented disciple.

As long as Xiao Yan refines the pills step by step, with the guidance of Yao Lao, he can become a sixth-grade alchemist within a year, and can even try his hand at the seventh grade.

An eighteen-year-old sixth-grade alchemist, or even a seventh-grade alchemist, is so terrifying that Gu He is nothing in front of him.

"What? My soul has reached the great perfection of the mortal realm." Xiao Yan looked at Yao Lao in disbelief, but it seemed that his soul power had indeed increased a lot, and the range of exploration had also expanded a lot.

"After being burned by the strange fire for so long, the physical body has crossed two realms. How can the soul level not be improved?" Yao Lao said as a matter of course.

Thinking of the pain of being burned by the strange fire, Xiao Yan shuddered suddenly. The torment of being locked in a furnace and constantly burned without being able to shout out made him feel frightened.

"This retreat has indeed brought about a significant improvement. The level of my skills has been raised to the low level of the Earth Rank. However, the level increase is too small, only reaching the one-star Dou Ling!" Xiao Yan felt uncomfortable when he thought of this.

"Who can you blame for this? It's you who got bewitched. Now you're suffering! You could have at least reached the level of Dou Wang." Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan and said jokingly.

"Teacher, I seem to remember that when I was first wrapped by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, my body was directly burned into nothingness, and even my bones began to melt. I thought I was really going to die at that time, but it seemed that there was something protecting me and providing me with strength. What was it?" Xiao Yan asked puzzledly.

"What else could it be? Of course it's those lotus roots. I originally wanted to get a lotus root body! Now they've all been consumed by you." Yao Lao glanced at Xiao Yan and said with heartache.

"Uh...is there nothing left?" Xiao Yan said to Yao Lao with some embarrassment.

"What's left is shit!" Yao Lao cursed.

"Ahem! I will definitely get a better one for the teacher in the future." Xiao Yan said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Your strength has increased too much this time. Fortunately, Medusa has controlled your strength at the Dou Ling level, otherwise it would be very troublesome. Now you need to keep fighting with people, but with your current strength, it is not easy to find opponents! Even the old man who sells maps can't fight with you for too long. But this is not my concern. You figure it out yourself. In short, don't improve your strength before you adapt to your own strength." After Yao Lao finished his instructions, he turned into a ball of white light and drilled into the storage ring.

As soon as Yao Lao entered the storage ring, Xiao Yan discovered that except for the Dou Qi he had cultivated that was given to Medusa, the rest had all entered Yao Lao's body.

"Okay! Now I have two ancestors!" Xiao Yan sighed helplessly.

However, from another perspective, Xiao Yan now has two Dou Zong as bodyguards, which is really generous. Of course, there is also a Dou Huang level fighter waiting for Xiao Yan to subdue.

Xiao Yan thought that Qing Lin was still waiting up there, so he dodged and shot quickly upwards.

After a while, Xiao Yan saw Qing Lin looking at the magma below with an anxious look on his face, as if waiting for Xiao Yan to come back.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan no longer stayed in the magma, but leaped directly to Qing Lin's side.

"Young Master, are you okay?" Qing Lin hugged Xiao Yan and asked crying.

"I... I'm fine!" Xiao Yan said in a daze.

"But...but I saw the young master being beaten here and there, sometimes in the sky, sometimes on the ground. That person hit him very hard. Is the young master really okay?" Qing Lin looked Xiao Yan up and down and found that Xiao Yan did not have any injuries on his body. A puzzled expression instantly appeared in his little head and he felt very puzzled.

"Hehe! You've seen it wrong, that's not me!" Xiao Yan said somewhat embarrassedly.

"But it was you, young master, that I saw! And you weren't wearing any clothes!" Qinglin seemed to have thought of something, and her little face turned red instantly.

"You might be dizzy from hunger and have hallucinations. That was definitely not me. Your master is so powerful, how could he be beaten by someone!" Xiao Yan felt so embarrassed.

Is the Green Snake's Three Flower Pupils so amazing? It's like a telescope, it can see from so far away.

Qinglin saw that her young master was a little embarrassed, and knew that the young master didn't want others to know about her ugly deeds, so she pursed her lips and chuckled, "Qinglin didn't eat well these days, so she has problems with her eyes."

"Well, Young Master will take you to eat now." Xiao Yan nodded, and lamented that it was fortunately dark at that time, otherwise the entire Shimo City would probably have seen it.

But when Xiao Yan reached the ground, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. He saw countless deep pits in the desert, stretching as far as the eye could see and looking very spectacular.

"Third brother, what happened yesterday? It seemed like quite a commotion!" Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at Xiao Yan and said jokingly.

"Nothing?" Xiao Yan said without blushing or beating his heart.

"Pailing Cloud Palm!"

A powerful airflow suddenly appeared in Xiao Yan's palm, blowing straight towards the desert.

The howling wind blew up a cloud of dust, which continued to cover the deep pit.

It took Xiao Yan nearly half a day to cover up all traces.
