Chapter 211: Reaching an Agreement
"Is it true, little friend?" Hearing this, Venerable Tian Huo's breathing seemed to have quickened.
He wasn't afraid that Xiao Ming was lying to him, with his perception, he was naturally able to see that Xiao Ming was an Alchemist, and moreover, a very high-tier Alchemist.
"Naturally." Xiao Ming nodded his head.
"Little friend, feel free to ask me for whatever you want, as long as it doesn't go against my principles, this old man will agree!"
How could a Dou Venerate powerhouse that had roamed the Continent be willing to vanish under the dark magma? At the same time, he knew that Xiao Ming was doing a lot for him, and a single Heavenly Flame would definitely not be enough reward, so he immediately said in a very straightforward manner.
Before Xiao Ming could say anything, Yao Tian Huo tapped his forehead as if remembering something, and with a wave of his hand, a snow-white storage ring flew from one of the bones on the side to land on his hand. Waving his fingers, a white scroll came out of the storage ring, the scroll was pale white and on it was drawn some flaming beasts.
"This is my famous Dou Technique, 'Five Ring Flame Expelling Technique', although it is not correct to call it Dou Technique, instead, it is more correct to call it Flame Controlling Method."
Venerable Tian Huo threw the scroll to Xiao Ming and said: "This technique is divided into five categories based on the shape of the beast: Wolf, Leopard, Lion, Tiger, Dragon. Each kind of beast has its own fire spirit. Upon complete mastery of this fire technique, the five beasts can gather and form a Five Ring Flame Expelling Flame Formation. It has the enormous strength to boil the sea and burn the sky".
"If four of the five beasts are agglomerated from a 'Heavenly Flame', the strength of this technique is comparable to a Tian Dou Technique!"
"I see that you are very interested in flame control, so I will give you this Dou Technique as a gift from me."
"Tian Dou Technique?" Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, so far, he had not acquired a Tian Dou Technique yet, he had a Qi Method, but he did not match the attribute of it.
He had five Heavenly Flames right now, so once he cultivated this Dou Technique, then he would immediately have a Dou Technique that could rival High Tian Dou Techniques.
However, Xiao Ming's face did not change too much due to this Dou Technique.
Seeing that Xiao Ming's face did not change much, Yao Tian Huo felt that Xiao Ming was a bit difficult to handle, but when he thought about it further, it was likely that Xiao Ming had an extraordinary background since he had such strength at such a young age, so he might not put his Techniques in his eyes.
'However, this is a good thing, this means that this person is more likely to be able to bring me back from life' Venerable Tian Huo thought.
"What other conditions do you have, little friend, please feel free to mention them."
"I don't have any extravagant demands; I just hope Senior Tian Huo can protect me when you regain your strength." Said Xiao Ming with a faint smile.
At these words, Yao Tianhuo was taken aback, and after a brief pause, sneered, "You are so calculating that you want to squeeze this old man to the last drop!"
Xiao Ming's smile remained unchanged as he continued to look at Yao Tianhuo with a smiling face and said.
"Hehe, the fact that Senior can be resurrected makes this condition not a loss at all! However, if Senior feels that you are losing in this exchange, then I am willing to take the loss. I have a two-colored Eighth Tier Pill, the "Green Fungus Pill," that can restore most of Senior's strength. How does that sound?"
"Hahaha, fair enough, then it's a deal!"
Venerable Tian Huo agreed willingly, Xiao Ming was now a Dou Ancestor being so young, even if he had to protect him, it wouldn't be a lifelong matter. If Xiao Ming maintained this cultivation speed, maybe after a few years of recovering his physical body, the other party would have already surpassed his cultivation level, so he would be free at that time, so there was nothing to doubt about.
"Senior, don't worry, I always keep my word." Xiao Ming said confidently.
"Then I'll hand over this Infant Fallen Heart Flame to you first, little friend..."
Yao Tian Huo raised his hand and the Fallen Heart Flame on his bones floated towards it, and after looking deeply at Xiao Ming, he waved his hand and threw it, causing the Infant Fallen Heart Flame to reach Xiao Ming's position.
Carefully catching this Fallen Heart Flame, Xiao Ming was able to feel the fragility of this little flame in his hands. He then forced himself to contain the joy in his heart and quickly took out the Flame Gathering Cauldron from his storage ring before carefully putting it in.
When Su Qian had given him the Flame Gathering Cauldron, Xiao Ming had asked for an extra one just for this moment.
As the Fallen Heart Flame fell into the Flame Gathering Cauldron, the temperature rose faintly, and Xiao Ming could clearly sense that an invisible fluctuation was silently spreading inside the Cauldron. Being extremely familiar with the Fallen Heart Flame, he naturally knew that this invisible fluctuation was exactly what the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower needed.
'However, if Xiao Yan has cultivated the Flame Mantra and desires the Heavenly Flame, I fear he may not be able to resist the urge to obtain it'. Said Xiao Ming with a slight frown. He naturally did not want the Heavenly Flame to fall into Xiao Yan's hands, as the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower would become unusable without it.
Furthermore, now that Han Feng had been captured by him, if Xiao Yan dared to steal the Heavenly Flame, he would certainly receive a harsh punishment from the Jia Nan Academy, which had six Dou Ancestors, oh no, along with him and Qian Bai Two Elders, a total of nine Dou Ancestors.
Even if he didn't take action and the Qian Bai Two Elders didn't act either, the Jia Nan Academy still had six Dou Ancestors.
With this lineup, even if Yao Lao was powerful, he would have to submit to a severe beating.
Even if Xiao Yan was lucky enough to escape with the Heavenly Flame, as the saying goes, the monk may run away but the temple still remains (TL: You can run, but you cannot hide). Xiao Yan was from the Xiao family, where could he run away to?
This realization made him understand that in the original story, Xiao Yan's theft of the Fallen Heart Flame was done without any consideration for the potential consequences to the Xiao family of Wu Tan City or the clan members studying at the Jia Nan Academy.
It was partly due to subsequent events, such as Han Fen's appearance, that Xiao Yan was able to gain hero status, and thus the Jia Nan Academy did not pursue him for the Heavenly Flame. Otherwise… tsk.
'Forget it, I won't think too much about it, if Xiao Yan really comes to the Academy, then I'll just make First Elder pay more attention to him.' Xiao Ming said inwardly.
Venerable Tian Huo saw Xiao Ming put away the Heavenly Flame, so he waved his hand nonchalantly, and put away his own skeleton inside the storage ring.
Then, once again, with a slight wave of his hand, the white storage ring in his hand was automatically placed on Xiao Ming's finger, while his figure also flashed in the ring, and a faint ripple spread out from the storage ring, causing the light shield in front of Xiao Ming to slowly open.
"There's something dangerous hidden in this magma, we should leave immediately!"
"Agreed," said Xiao Ming, he knew Yao Tian Huo was afraid of the lizard man, and as soon as the light shield opened, he quickly moved, his body turned into a white shadow, and he shot out like lightning, while at the same time, a faint spatial power spread out from the white ring, shielding them from the fluctuations of the surrounding magma.
...
On the silent surface of the magma, which had no wind or waves, only the faint sound of hot bubbles bursting from time to time.
Plop!
The whole magma world was still in sepulchral silence, when, suddenly, a sound of water breaking sounded, and then a human figure, enveloped in invisible flames, emerged from the magma until he was finally suspended in the air.
"We're finally out!"
