Advancing to Dou Wang!

## Chapter 260: Advancing to Dou Wang!

The Dou Ling Pill, a Fourth Grade Peak Pill, has the same effect as the Dou Wang Pill and Huangji Pill, which is to increase one star level, and can only be taken once in a lifetime.

Xiao Yan had never used the Dou Ling Pill before; he was waiting for this moment to use it to raise himself from an Eight Star Dou Ling to a Nine Star Dou Ling.

An ordinary Dou Ling Pill might not necessarily allow an Eight Star Dou Ling to advance to Nine Star, but Xiao Yan was a Rank 6 Alchemist and possessed a Strange Flame. The Dou Ling Pill he refined for himself would undoubtedly be of the highest quality.

The other pill was the main event: the Fifth Grade Peak Pill, Ba Wang Pill. This is the most powerful and precious pill among Fifth Grade Pills, although it is ranked Fifth Grade, its refining difficulty is no less than that of ordinary Sixth Grade Pills.

The effect of the Ba Wang Pill is very simple, with only one: to allow a Nine Star Dou Ling to break through that bottleneck and become a Dou Wang!

Having the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame and having used genuine Earth Core Body Tempering Milk, Xiao Yan didn't care about the Heart Flame Source body tempering at all. It was like Zi Yan, who was already a Dou Wang; she was only here out of boredom, and this body tempering was just better than nothing.

For others like Liu Qing, Lin Xiuya, and Han Yue, body tempering and paving the way to Dou Wang was their pursuit, something they dreamed of. But for Xiao Yan, Zi Yan, and Xun Er, this thing was useless; becoming a Dou Wang was only a matter of time for them.

As a Rank 6 Alchemist, becoming a Dou Wang for Xiao Yan was just a matter of a pill.

However, while pills are convenient, they also have a fatal flaw: the Dou Qi is easily superficial, and the foundation is not solid.

Therefore, Xiao Yan came here not for body tempering, but to use the Heart Flame Source to solidify his Dou Qi! To offset the side effects of using pills to break through, and to make his Dou Wang foundation more solid! Seeing that the invisible Heart Flame began to float, preparing to enter from his forehead, Xiao Yan knew that time was of the essence and directly threw the Dou Ling Pill into his mouth.

Instantly, a strong surge of energy rushed into his entire body's meridians, and the pill's energy transformed into the purest Dou Qi threads, pouring into his Qi Cyclone.

Having already been an Eight Star Dou Ling for quite some time, Xiao Yan very smoothly reached Nine Star, and even faintly began to move towards the peak of Nine Star.

However, Xiao Yan did not break through to Dou Wang; he first introduced the Heart Flame Source into his body.

The moment the Heart Flame entered his body, an incomparably terrifying heat instantly enveloped Xiao Yan's entire body, making him look like a thoroughly cooked shrimp, red all over, ready to be dipped in sauce and eaten.

"I wonder how many people will be able to successfully withstand it this time?" Great Elder Su Qian muttered to himself.

After glancing at everyone, Su Qian focused his attention on Xiao Yan and said, "Why is this kid eating pills? Does he plan to break through to Dou Wang with this?!"

Great Elder Su Qian was first stunned, then smiled wryly, sighing in his heart that Alchemists were awesome, that this was even possible.

Others endure the pain of body tempering, painstakingly paving the way to break through to Dou Wang, and you just take a pill.

"If Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing find out about this, they'll probably cough up blood in anger."

At this time, the Dou Qi in Xiao Yan's body that had increased due to the Dou Ling Pill was once again purified and refined by the Heart Flame Source flame. The already very pure pill energy was actually forcibly reduced by half again.

White mist curled out from the top of his head, and Xiao Yan's meridians, bones, and even blood seemed to become transparent at this moment. Invisible flames seeped out from all parts of his body, and then, like maggots attached to bones, burned everything that could be burned within his body.

Even the Dou Qi hidden in his flesh and blood could not escape this calamity. Although Xiao Yan could not see it internally, he could feel that the Dou Qi hidden throughout his body was constantly churning like boiling water.

But this was exactly the effect Xiao Yan wanted!

The Dou Qi, which had reached the peak of Nine Star Dou Ling due to the Dou Ling Pill, was actually decreasing.

When there was nothing left to reduce, Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes and took out the Ba Wang Pill from the pill bottle.

"Damn, the Ba Wang Pill!" Great Elder Su Qian also had sharp eyes and immediately recognized the golden pill in Xiao Yan's hand.

"Ordinary low-level Rank 6 Alchemists don't even have a 50% success rate in refining the Ba Wang Pill. This kid Xiao Yan's Pill Refining skills are so strong!"

Under the gaze of Great Elder Su Qian, Xiao Yan swallowed the Ba Wang Pill in one gulp.

!!!!!!!! Xiao Yan's pupils widened in shock as a powerful and terrifying energy immediately spread throughout his body, causing his body to expand his meridians like an inflating balloon!

Coupled with the burning of the Heart Flame Source, Xiao Yan couldn't help but grit his teeth under the double pain, and the blue veins on his body bulged.

Seeing this scene, even the Great Elder frowned, revealing a look of concern. No one had ever tried to break through with the Ba Wang Pill while simultaneously using the Heart Flame Source for body tempering.

His face turned purplish due to the flushing, and bubbles constantly appeared on Xiao Yan's skin. The terrifying energy that surged out of his body like a tidal wave seemed to burst his entire body. Then, in the next second, the invisible Heart Flame Source began to bake at high temperatures, constantly reducing his Dou Qi.

Expansion, burning, shrinking, re-expansion, re-burning, re-shrinking.

Xiao Yan's body was like a balloon, sometimes big and sometimes small.

After an unknown amount of time, one of the students ranked sixth couldn't bear the pain and vomited blood. That student also slowly opened his eyes, and he seemed to know that he had failed, his eyes filled with dimness and helplessness.

"You rest on the side first. Heart Flame body tempering is often a failure, so don't worry too much." The Great Elder opened the barrier and let him rest on the side.

In the end, a total of two people failed in body tempering and were taken away from the Heavenly Flame Training Gas Refining Tower by the Great Elder.

The Heart Flame Source body tempering is a time-consuming matter. For the next three days, they were accepting the burning of the Heart Flame, and during this burning time, they could clearly feel that their body's internal organs, whether meridians, bones, etc., were greatly strengthened.

Generally, Heart Flame Source body tempering takes three days, but there are always exceptions.

The next day, the jade platform where Xun Er was located dimmed, and the Heart Flame Source was completely exhausted.

Seeing Xun Er leave the jade platform early, Great Elder Su Qian was not surprised, after all, he knew where Xun Er came from.

"Greetings, Great Elder," Xun Er said politely.

"Yes, you can go back first, they probably have another day."

Xun Er gently shook her head, glanced at Xiao Yan's position, and then sat aside to start cultivating, she was naturally waiting for Xiao Yan. Not long after, Zi Yan also came out of the jade platform.

After all, Zi Yan was already a Dou Wang, and her physical strength was unmatched. This time, she was purely tempering her body while eating the Medicinal Herbs candies Xiao Yan gave her. Once she finished eating, she was done.

Zi Yan glanced at Xiao Yan and found that he was still tempering his body, curled her lips, and then turned and left the Heavenly Flame Training Gas Refining Tower.

Soon, a day passed, and the first to come out were Lin Yan, Han Yue, and Yan Hao. What Great Elder Su Qian didn't expect was that Han Yue, who had the lowest cultivation level, had actually made it through. Although her cultivation level had not improved, it was conceivable that she would definitely step into the Dou Wang realm in the near future.

About thirty minutes later, almost at the same time, the jade platforms where Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing were located suddenly erupted with a Dou Wang aura.

"Damn! These two broke through to Dou Wang!" Lin Yan widened his eyes. He and Yan Hao were both at the peak of Dou Ling. After tempering their bodies, they had touched the threshold of Dou Wang, but they had not been able to break through!

Han Yue said softly, "It's normal, they were already half-step Dou Wang, now it's a natural progression."

After speaking, Han Yue also glanced at Xiao Yan's position.

With two booming sounds, two figures flew up from the jade platform, each with a pair of Dou Qi Wings behind them, proving that they had indeed reached Dou Wang! Liu Qing and Lin Xiuya flew to the Great Elder, and the Great Elder nodded in satisfaction and said, "Good, very good, you two have good talent, it's only a matter of time before you step into Dou Huang."

Hearing the Great Elder's praise, Lin Xiuya couldn't help but reveal a hint of satisfaction, while Liu Qing remained indifferent, then turned to look at Xiao Yan.

"Why hasn't he come out yet?" Liu Qing asked.

The Great Elder explained, "That guy Xiao Yan also wants to break through to Dou Wang."

!!!!!! Except for Xun Er, everyone's expression changed drastically, and they looked at Xiao Yan in surprise, all in disbelief.

"Isn't he only an eight-star Dou Ling! It's impossible to directly rush to Dou Wang in these three days," Lin Yan asked in confusion.

Han Yue's beautiful eyes flashed, and she said, "Pills."

"Pills?!"

"Could it be the Fifth Grade peak Ba Wang Pill!"

Seeing the Great Elder nod, everyone revealed envious expressions, pills, pills! One pill actually surpassed Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing's efforts of more than a year! The value of the Ba Wang Pill was more expensive than many Sixth Grade pills, and they were all priceless, you couldn't buy them even if you wanted to.

Lin Yan smiled wryly. It was clear that when they first met, his cultivation level was higher than Xiao Yan's, but now, not only was his strength inferior to others, but even his cultivation level was inferior.

"But isn't this time a bit long? With the assistance of pills, there's no reason for him to be slower than Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing."

Just as everyone was wondering, suddenly! An anomaly occurred!

A huge suction force erupted from the jade platform where Xiao Yan was located, as if the place where Xiao Yan was was a huge vortex, frantically absorbing.

"What is this!"

"I don't know, but does breaking through to Dou Wang do this!"

Misfortune never comes singly, at the same instant, Great Elder Su Qian, who had been paying attention to the bottom, suddenly changed his expression drastically! "All of you leave the Heavenly Flame Training Gas Refining Tower immediately!" After saying that, Su Qian's figure instantly disappeared and came to the bottom of the tower.

In the deepest layer of the Heavenly Flame Training Gas Refining Tower, an invisible energy was impacting the seal barrier.

"The energy has become so much stronger... Those... These seals, the effect..." Suddenly remembering something extremely important, Su Qian's heart suddenly turned cold, and he planned to immediately gather manpower to strengthen the seal.

The crowd on the upper floor were shocked, and they all realized that something had happened!

"Let's go!"

"What about Xiao Yan, what exactly is he doing now!"

Lin Yan looked in the direction of Xiao Yan. At this time, Xiao Yan seemed to have reached a critical moment, his eyes were tightly closed, and there seemed to be an extremely terrifying energy gathering in his body.

Xun Er slowly stood up, a golden flame flashed in her beautiful eyes, and a cold voice came, "You leave here, I will take Xiao Yan gege away."

After speaking, Xun Er waved her hand, and actually pushed the four people out of this space in one fell swoop, and then a golden flame appeared out of thin air at the entrance, sealing the entrance.

Xun Er's expression was solemn, her eyes flickered with golden fire, and then she lowered her head to look down, as if her eyes could penetrate and see the Fallen Heart Flame body below.

"Xiao Yan gege still needs some time."
