Shen Xuan patted the dust off his body and rested for a moment before slowly standing up. Elder Shi also rushed out of his body and looked at the former with a smile.
"With the strength of a four star Dou Zhe, you are able to force back a seven star Dou Zhe Golden Eyed Demonic Tiger.”Staring at Shen Xuan for a moment, Elder Shi smiled and said.
Shen Xuan also smiled. He stared intently at his palms. The strength of this Heavenly Dragon Tremor had somewhat exceeded his expectations. After all, there was a gap of three stars between four stars. It was already not bad to be able to use this Dou Technique to level it up.
" I wonder how powerful the Heavenly Dragon Tremor that truly possesses the Dragon Bloodline is…" Shen Xuan rubbed his nose and muttered. There was an introduction on the cultivation method of the Heavenly Dragon Tremor. If one could refine some Dragon Bloodline, the power would be able to rise by several levels.
"You should continue to cultivate this Heavenly Dragon Tremor. From your battle with the Golden Eyed Demonic Tiger just now, it is obvious that you are still very unfamiliar with it. If you were a little more familiar with it, that Golden Eyed Demonic Tiger would probably be slaughtered by you.”
"As for tempering your body, once a day is enough. Too much is harmful to your body. When you become stronger, you can increase the intensity of your tempering.”Elder Shi mused for a moment before speaking.
"Good!" Shen Xuan smiled and nodded. With a leap, he fled into the forest. Following the sound of a somewhat tender cry, a flock of birds was startled.
……
As he cultivated, time passed by like flowing water, leaving no trace behind. Shen Xuan stuffed the last piece of rabbit meat into his mouth, then extinguished the fire on the ground that was used to roast meat. Only then did he stretch and stand up.
"Teacher, is that enough?"
He glanced at the sun that was slowly disappearing in the direction of the Bewitching Mountain Range, then looked around warily and asked.
"Wait a little longer." Elder Shi frowned slightly. His ten fingers were crossed as he spoke.
Shen Xuan nodded his head when he heard this. He casually climbed onto a branch of the Profound Wood and checked his surroundings. After confirming that there was no one else around, he finally closed his eyes and sat down cross-legged.
Night gradually enveloped this land. The Bewitching Mountain Range in the distance would occasionally emit some beast roars. However, the forest where Shen Xuan was located was strangely quiet.
Shen Xuan, who was on the tree trunk, suddenly opened his tightly shut eyes. He immediately jumped down. The entire process was clean and neat, and not even a sound could be heard when he landed.
"We can start now." Elder Shi could not even see his body in the darkness. However, he still spoke in a faint voice.
" Alright." Shen Xuan nodded his head slightly and took out a jade bottle from his bosom. He opened the cork and a pungent smell assaulted his senses.
"This is Beast Repellent Powder. Most magical beasts are very disgusted by this smell. Splash it around the cave. Otherwise, the fishy smell in the bone marrow will attract some magical beasts.”Elder Shi said after seeing Shen Xuan take out the jade bottle.
Shen Xuan followed Elder Shi's instructions and scattered the black powder in the jade bottle on the thorns around the cave. A pungent smell suddenly spread out. Under the effect of the wind, it spread to a large area of the forest.
"These things are very easy to make. You have to try making some in the future. Sometimes, these little things are very useful.”Elder Shi said in a lecturing tone.
"Teacher, what kind of medicinal pill does that alchemist refine?”After sprinkling the Beast Repellent Powder on the ground, Shen Xuan tilted his head and suddenly asked.
"An alchemist huh…" Elder Shi smiled and said,"If you want to become an alchemist, you must at least refine a medicinal pill that has taken shape. I have also seen your Dou Qi. It only has the fire attribute and does not have the wood attribute. Therefore, you cannot become an alchemist.”
" Is that so…" Hearing this, Shen Xuan nodded his head in disappointment. When he was young, he had also tested himself and understood his own attributes. With only the fire attribute and no wood attribute, it was impossible for him to become an alchemist.
"Although being an alchemist is the noblest profession on the Dou Qi continent, one's training in Dou Qi is also not weak. Once one reaches a certain level, there is no difference between one and an alchemist.”Elder Shi said indifferently when he saw Shen Xuan's disappointment.
After saying that, Elder Shi did not say anything else and directly rushed into the cave. Shen Xuan followed closely behind and dragged some tree branches over to cover this narrow cave entrance tightly.
After doing all this, Shen Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. He took out a long candle from his bosom and lit it up before standing it on the cave wall. With the weak candlelight, he could barely see the scene inside the cave.
Soon after, he waved his hand. A wild wind surged and completely removed the tree branches covering the wolf bones. Immediately, his fiery eyes stared at the wolf bones that contained a cold glint under the candlelight.
After waiting for so long, it was finally about to begin!
Elder Shi clenched his hand. A fist-sized bone with an irregular shape appeared in his hand. Immediately, a black glow flashed past and the bone was cut open. The surface was as smooth as a mirror. Immediately, a few drops of thick bright-red liquid seeped out.
"Is this the bone marrow from the wolf bones? As expected, it contained extremely pure energy!”Shen Xuan's finger dipped into a drop and he carefully felt the burning sensation that came from it as he could not help but sigh.
However, this energy was extremely violent. If he were to absorb it directly, his current meridians would definitely not be able to withstand it.
"The energy inside is too violent. I think you've also noticed that this kind of energy can't be absorbed directly. It has to be refined.”Elder Shi casually threw the bone in his hand onto the ground and spoke in a faint voice.
"Yes, it is indeed impossible to absorb it directly. However, it seems a little difficult to remove the berserk gene inside.”Shen Xuan nodded. He mused for a moment before replying.
"This is naturally difficult for ordinary people. However, have you forgotten about the Devouring Power in your body?”Elder Shi rolled his eyes and said in a bad mood.
"Devouring power?" Shen Xuan was slightly stunned and said,"This devouring power can be used like this?"”
"Heh, a 'Heavenly Flame' is a natural wonder. Do you think that you can only devour some energy? " I've told you long ago that the Devouring Power is incomparably vast. What you have mastered is not even the tip of the iceberg. Using it to refine some things is just a small matter.”Elder Shi chuckled and looked at Shen Xuan suavely.
Hearing this, Shen Xuan smiled embarrassedly. He rubbed his palms and immediately asked,"Then how should I extract the energy from the wolf bones?"”
"This…is quite troublesome. Have you tried to condense Dou Qi flames in the past?”Elder Shi hesitated for a moment before asking.
"Dou Qi flame huh…" Shen Xuan frowned slightly. He immediately narrowed his eyes and Dou Qi surged from his palm. With a 'bang', it swiftly transformed into a thumb-sized white-colored flame that appeared to be about to be extinguished at any moment. It repeatedly jumped on his palm.
"Because the mercenary group had tested whether there was an alchemist's talent in the past, they are not unfamiliar with this thing…"
"Yes." Elder Shi nodded slightly. He was quite satisfied that Shen Xuan was able to form a Dou Qi flame. However, with a glance, he saw a cluster of pale-yellow light repeatedly appearing on the latter's wrist due to the surging Dou Qi flame.
"A Low Yellow Rank cultivation method?" Elder Shi knit his brows tightly. A trace of displeasure flashed across his eyes as he said,"Although you currently possess the Devouring Power, if your Qi Method is too low, you will be unable to activate some high class Dou Techniques. Moreover, there is no fire affinity Qi Method in my collection. Therefore, you must find a better Qi Method in the future.”
Hearing this, Shen Xuan laughed bitterly. It was already good enough for him to have a low level Yellow Grade cultivation technique in Broken Soul Town. How could a high level cultivation technique be so easy to obtain?
According to what he knew, even the leader of the Hunter Mercenary Group only cultivated a middle grade mystic cultivation method. He had never heard of a very high grade one.
"Forget it. There is no need to be so anxious about this. Before advancing to the Dou Shi class, there should not be any problem with this Huang class low level Qi Method combined with the Devouring Power. However, when the class is higher, this Qi Method must be changed.”Elder Shi could not help but roll his eyes when he saw the bitter expression on Shen Xuan's face.
"If I am able to go to the Four Pavilion in the future, I will definitely not lack Qi Methods and Dou Techniques. It will be much better than my current poor state.”As he muttered, his eyes flashed and he clenched his fists tightly.
The Four Pavilions were undoubtedly a holy land for youths like them, who were struggling to climb up the ranks at the bottom. However…was it that easy to enter the Four Pavilions?
The factions in the Central Plains were divided into one hall, one tower, two sects, three valleys, and four pavilions. This seemingly simple introduction had included all the factions that were well-known in the Central Plains.
Although the Four Pavilions were ranked last, their strength was far from what they could imagine. There were elite Dou Zuns guarding the Four Pavilions. This lineup was quite strong in the Central Plains.
Of course, on the surface, these factions occupied it. However, the Central Plains was incomparably vast. No one knew if there were any stronger factions. They were extremely low-key when dealing with things, but if anyone wanted to target them, they would probably find the wrong place.
The so-called Four Pavilions were the Falling Star Pavilion, Wind Lightning Pavilion, Sword Pavilion, and Yellow Spring Pavilion. The four pavilions were located in four different locations in the Central Plains. Hence, they were known as the Four Pavilions.
Every three years, the Four Pavilions would widely recruit some disciples with great potential from the Central Plains. As long as they met the requirements, they would be able to enter the Four Pavilions. At this time, it was usually an opportunity for some people to leap over the dragon gate.
After entering the Four Pavilion, one would possess a good training Qi Method and Dou Technique. The training conditions were also extraordinary. If one had the opportunity, one would even be able to obtain some high tier medicinal pills to facilitate one's training.
Although there was such a good treatment, this Four Pavilion was not a place where anyone could be randomly pulled in. The conditions for the Four Pavilion to recruit disciples were as follows: Firstly, one must not be over fifteen years old and one must have the strength of a five star Dou Zhe.
After satisfying these conditions, one had to stand out among the many geniuses before being selected by the Four Pavilions. Thus, it was not so easy to enter the mysterious Four Pavilions.
