Strength Improvement

Two days later, Xiao Yan followed the soul map in his memory and set off into the depths of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

After leaping over a mountain gully, Xiao Yan slowly approached a steep mountain wall. After carefully selecting a spot for a long while, he finally chose a cave about four or five meters above the ground.

Carefully climbing the somewhat damp and slippery stones, Xiao Yan, like a nimble monkey, quickly squeezed into the cave he had chosen beforehand.

"This place isn't bad."

The inside of the cave was slightly cool, but the area inside was quite large, which was more than enough for Xiao Yan to live in alone.

After using his powerful Soul to explore, and finding no traces of Magical Beasts, Xiao Yan felt relieved. He moved a large rock from below the cliff to block the entrance.

Taking out a quilt and pillow from his Storage Ring, he built a simple single bed with a few wooden strips, and used a special luminous gem to provide light, forming a simple cave dwelling.

Xiao Yan didn't choose this place as a foothold randomly. The three places marked on the Soul Palace's soul map as 'suspected of having the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame' were all not far from here. Xiao Yan could use this as a center to slowly explore these three places.

Although the place where Xiao Yan was now was not yet the innermost part of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, he could already encounter Tier 3 Magical Beasts, and even Xiao Yan had to act cautiously.

Xiao Yan slowly circulated the Burning诀. The Burning诀, which had refined the Void Swallowing Flame Sub-fire, was now a Mystic Low-Rank Cultivation Method, and the condensation of Dou Qi had also become faster.

"Let's cultivate the flying Dou Technique first. It's better to master a means of escape first."

Xiao Yan flipped his palm, and a black scroll appeared in his hand. It was the Mystic High-Rank flying Dou Technique.

Flying, ah, which young man doesn't have a dream of soaring through the sky?

Holding the scroll in both hands, Xiao Yan licked his lips, untied the carefully tied string on the scroll, and then slowly unfolded it.

"This Dou Technique is called Eagle Wings, also known as Amethyst Cloud Wings. It took me and a few friends three years to successfully capture a Flame Amethyst Cloud Eagle, extract its wings using secret methods, and finally form this flying Dou Technique that can be cultivated. This Dou Technique was drawn with Dou Qi before my death and left to someone with fate. Only one person can cultivate it, remember!"

Xiao Yan discovered that the pair of Amethyst Cloud Wings on the Dou Technique contained Soul, and the entry standard for cultivating this Dou Technique was to be able to resist the Soul attack on it, and successfully integrate the Amethyst Cloud Wings into one's own Soul.

After reading the entire Dou Technique, Xiao Yan felt that this flying Dou Technique was simply tailor-made for him. It was too easy to get started. He slowly reached out and touched the pattern on the scroll, and a surge of Soul power rushed out from the pattern, bombarding Xiao Yan.

"Playing with Soul with me?" Xiao Yan sneered, and a Soul attack burst out.

Xiao Yan, who had cultivated the Spirit Heart Soul Gathering Art and Soul Skill, faced this incomplete fierce Soul that had been sealed in the scroll for who knows how long, and was captured by Xiao Yan in just a few encounters.

The Flame Amethyst Cloud Eagle had no choice but to submit to Xiao Yan's powerful Soul power.

After the Flame Amethyst Cloud Eagle submitted, a warm current gathered on Xiao Yan's back, and a pair of black Eagle Wings patterns like tattoos appeared on Xiao Yan's back.

Xiao Yan slowly circulated his Dou Qi, and all the Dou Qi in his body gathered on his back. Accompanied by a burst of heat, a pair of Xuan-colored Dou Qi wings only one and a half meters long appeared behind Xiao Yan.

"To make the Amethyst Cloud Wings fly requires a lot of Dou Qi. Fortunately, the Burning诀 has evolved to the Mystic Rank."

Xiao Yan controlled it and flapped it slightly, and a small buoyancy appeared under him. After injecting more Dou Qi, the thrust gradually increased, allowing Xiao Yan to float in the air.

With Xiao Yan's current Dou Shi Dou Qi, the full-speed flight speed is about the speed of a small car, about eighty kilometers per hour.

Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed, and he shouted in his heart: "Fire, come!"

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!! The Xuan-colored Amethyst Cloud Wings were suddenly replaced by black flames. The Void Swallowing Flame gushing out from Soul Collection gathered in the back through the meridians, and a pair of extremely large dark fire wings appeared behind Xiao Yan.

Setting off Xiao Yan like a demon king.

Boom! Like a jet fighter, black flames spewed out, and the terrifying thrust made Xiao Yan completely unable to control himself, and he crashed into the stone wall, creating a big bump.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch. After adding the Void Swallowing Flame, the power is indeed much stronger, but the Dou Qi consumption is too terrifying."

After stopping the input of Dou Qi, the Amethyst Cloud Wings once again stuck to his back, turning into a ball of dark Eagle Wings tattoos. To skillfully control the flight distance, strength, and turns, Xiao Yan still had to spend some time training.

After applying some medicine to the bump on his forehead, Xiao Yan took out the mysterious remnant map and the Strange Flame Ranking List illustration from his Storage Ring.

Meow! Mao Wu, who was originally listless, suddenly bared its fangs and claws when it saw the appearance of the remnant map. Following the position Mao Wu was staring at, Xiao Yan discovered a faint pink lotus pattern.

If Xiao Yan guessed correctly, this faint lotus pattern was probably branded with a Strange Flame, which is why it caused such a great hostility from the Void Swallowing Flame.

And there are only a few Strange Flames that can make the Void Swallowing Flame hostile.

"Purification Lotus Demon Flame. On the Strange Flame Ranking List. Ranked third. Has the special effect of purifying all things. The shape of the demon fire is like a lotus flower, with a light pink color. Could this remnant map be a treasure map of the Purification Lotus Demon Flame!"

Meow!!! "You think so too?"

Meow~ "It's a pity that there is only a incomplete one. It would be great if there was a complete one."

Xiao Yan stretched his waist, pushed open a bit of the stone block at the entrance of the cave, and the warm sunlight shone on the earth. Looking into the distance from the cliff, the Magical Beast Mountain Range stretched endlessly, like a green dragon.

He could even foresee his upcoming life like a savage.

Now Xiao Yan has three goals. The first is to explore three places with exceptionally dense fire-attribute energy according to the Soul map. The second is to cultivate the Soul Cultivation Method, Spirit Heart Soul Gathering Art, to Minor Accomplishment, raising his Soul realm to the Intermediate Mortal Realm, and ensuring he can refine Third Grade Pills. The third is to practice the Flame Splitting Tsunami Ruler and the Lion's Roar, with the Lion's Roar needing to reach at least Intermediate or even Major Accomplishment to be effective.

Huff, the Amethyst Cloud Wings appeared behind Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan pushed off with his feet, spread his wings, and glided straight down the cliff face, flying towards the Magical Beast Mountain Range below.

"Wuhu! Magical Beast Mountain Range, Xiao Yan is here!"

Roar roar roar!! Seeing a figure flying down, a Magical Beast giant bear with Second Order strength let out a roar, stood up, and swung its bear paw fiercely at Xiao Yan.

"Hahahaha, it seems I'm destined to eat bear paw tonight! It's been a long time since I had Braised Bear Paw!"

"Eight Extremities Collapse!"

...

Time flashed by for more than four months, leaving a little over half a year until the duel Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan had privately arranged.

Late at night, Xiao Yan was crouching behind a rock, his gaze fixed on the huge mountain range not far away. At the top of the mountain, a large cave entrance was faintly visible under the cover of branches.

"This is really troublesome. This last location is actually the Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King's cave." Standing behind the rock, Xiao Yan cautiously cast his gaze towards the mountaintop, afraid that the creature inside would discover someone was spying on its cave.

Over the past four months, Xiao Yan, relying on the Mystic Rank Burning诀 and a chance encounter with a Fire Attribute Strange Fruit, had raised his cultivation from a One-Star Dou Shi to a Three-Star Dou Shi.

He had also explored the two nearest locations on the Soul map, but both turned out to be nonsense.

One was an underground lava river, which had formed a Mystic Fire Crystal Vein. This kind of Fire Crystal could be used as fuel. The other location was due to the death of a Fifth Order Fire Attribute Magical Beast.

Now, only the last location on the map remained, but what gave Xiao Yan a headache was that he couldn't even enter the cave! The Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King, a Sixth Order Magical Beast, was comparable to a Dou Huang in strength, and it was still alive! Even if the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame was inside its cave, what could he do? He couldn't beat this gatekeeper boss at all!
