Preparation

Standing on a small hill, Xiao Ling and the other two looked in the direction where Hai Bodong left until his figure disappeared from their sight.  

Retracting his gaze, Xiao Ling touched the heads of the two girls beside him and said with a smile: "Since Old Hai has left, we should also do our own business."

After a brief pause, Xiao Ling said to Zi Yan and Qing Lin, "We can't set out to look for the Heavenly Flame right now. The pill I prepared for refining the Heavenly Flame was used up when I devoured the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame. In order to suffer less, I have to spend some time preparing a few pills. I will go to Old Hai's shop to refine them later. It won't take much time to prepare the pill. When everything is ready, we can set out to find the location of the Heavenly Flame."

Now Xiao Ling has swallowed a Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame, and he also has the ability to recover from injuries. With the Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame suppressing the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame, and with the help of the effect of "Wildfires cannot be extinguished, spring breezes will bring new life", he should be able to swallow the GreenLotus Earth Core Flame safely. However, Xiao Ling is still a little afraid of pain. Anyway, it is something that can be handled in a few days at most, so it is easy to prepare.

The two girls nodded, and Zi Yan asked curiously, "Then Xiao Ling, should we stay in the shop and practice until you finish refining the pills before setting off?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ling replied to Zi Yan, "Zi Yan, while I'm refining the pill, you take Qing Lin to catch some snake monsters. With your strength, it's easy to subdue some fourth- and fifth-level monsters. When the monsters have no combat capability, you can let Qing Lin use the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils to subdue them. But don't go out for more than two days, just look around. There should be quite a few rock snakes and sand pythons on the edge of the Tager Desert, which is more than enough for Qing Lin to awaken the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. I'm afraid it will hurt her body if she directly subdues snake monsters that are much stronger than her."

After touching Qing Lin's little head again, Xiao Ling took out the "Heavenly Snake Manual" that he had extracted from the system to the Heavenly Snake Mansion from the storage ring and handed it to Qing Lin.

Before, Xiao Ling had roughly looked through some of the contents recorded therein. Regarding the first use of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils to subdue a monster, the first Lord of the Heavenly Snake Palace suggested that it was most appropriate to subdue a snake monster that was no more than two realms higher than one's own. If the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils was used on a snake monster that exceeded this limit, there would be a chance of failure to subdue it. Even if it succeeded, it would cause some damage to one's own spirit.

That's why Xiao Ling planned to let Zi Yan take Qing Lin to capture a few low-level monsters to subdue them, so as to open the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. In the original novel, Qing Lin used the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils directly on the two-headed fire snake. Although she successfully subdued the two-headed fire snake, she also fell into a coma. Although it is not known whether this situation has sequelae, it is better to use a gentler method to open the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils.

He said to Qing Lin: "I got this book by chance. It is the secret and unique skill of the Heavenly Snake Mansion. It records the lifelong learning and cultivation experience of the first generation Heavenly Snake Mansion Master. The first generation Heavenly Snake Mansion Master is the owner of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils like Qing Lin. With the help of this book, you can avoid many detours on the road to developing the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. When we look for the Heavenly Flame, we may need Qing Lin's help."

After hearing Xiao Ling's words, she reached out and took the "Heavenly Snake Manual" and carefully put it into the ring that Xiao Ling had previously worn on Qing Lin's finger.

After putting it away, Qing Lin nodded her head seriously and said softly: "Young Master, don't worry, Qing Lin will practice seriously and will be able to help you when the time comes."

Xiao Ling smiled and nodded without comment. With Qing Lin's help, he could use the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils to control the two-headed fire snake and take him to find the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame. According to the description in the original book, it would not be an easy task to blindly search for the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame in the magma. With the help of the indigenous two-headed fire snake there, the efficiency of finding the Heavenly Flame would definitely be much faster.

After arranging everything, Xiao Ling spread his Dou Qi Wings and flew towards Hai Bodong's shop. Next, he chose a location to refine the pill. Xiao Ling planned to use the secret room where he had refined the Breaking Adversity Pill for Hai Bodong before.  

Zi Yan took Qing Lin and, according to Xiao Ling's arrangement, went to the edge of the desert to find a few low-level snake monsters for Qing Lin to use to open the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils.

After a while, Xiao Ling arrived in front of Hai Bodong's shop. Since Hai Bodong didn't take anything away, except for the door in front of the shop being closed, other facilities had not changed at all.

Knowing that Xiao Ling still had to search for the Heavenly Flame in the Tager Desert, Hai Bodong told Xiao Ling how to open this shop, which could be considered a good place to stay.

Taking out an old key from the ring, Xiao Ling walked to the door of the shop and opened the lock. With a creaky sound, the door lock was opened.

Xiao Ling gently pushed open the door of the shop, walked in, and closed the door behind him.

Following the route in his memory, Xiao Ling walked around and finally arrived at the secret room that was used to refine the Breaking Adversity Pill.

He took out the medicine cauldron from the ring and placed it in the middle of the room. He also took out the herbs needed to make the pill and placed them on the table beside him.

Shaking his head, Xiao Ling couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Fortunately, I had considered obtaining the unexpected Heavenly Flame before. I have collected quite a few of the medicinal materials needed for refining the pills that can have some effect on devouring the Heavenly Flame in Canaan Academy."

The pill Xiao Ling planned to refine this time was the fifth-grade Blood Lotus Pill that Xiao Yan used in the original novel to swallow the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame. The other one was a sixth-grade top-level elixir called the Han Po Pill. Its effect was to lower the body temperature when swallowing the Heavenly Flame, and also to suppress the spirituality of the Heavenly Flame before it was refined in the body, making it easier to refine.

Shaking his head, Xiao Ling began to think: "Now that Green Lotus Earth Core Flame has not been used by Queen Medusa, its energy must be much greater than when Xiao Yan refined it in the original novel. It never hurts to make some more preparations. Anyway, with my identity as an alchemist, it is relatively easy to obtain resources, and I don't have to be stingy when it comes to using them."
