Chapter 153: The Wrath of the Fallen Heart Flame! Soul Enhancement!
After obtaining a seventh-level recipe from the feedback of the alchemy technique, Xiao Ze felt very satisfied. After all, high-level recipes have always been invaluable, and ninth-level ones are as precious as celestial-level combat techniques.
Xiao Ze saw a way to obtain more high-level recipes in the future. Besides collecting them himself, he could also get them through the feedback from Xiao Yan's alchemy technique.
After many bindings, Xiao Ze realized that the most useful bindings were of skills, followed by talents, and lastly, the blood of magical beasts. Skill enhancements produced the most feedback. Every time Xiao Yan prepared a pill, it almost always gave Xiao Ze multiple feedbacks. Although Xiao Yan didn't always know if he was improving, Xiao Ze's system showed it clearly. Each small progress of Xiao Yan turned into multiple feedbacks for Xiao Ze, thereby improving his alchemy technique.
Xiao Ze was able to reach the sixth level of alchemy and even attempt to prepare seventh-level pills, largely thanks to Xiao Yan's efforts. During the time Xiao Ze was taking the Emperor Pill to advance his level, Xiao Yan was frantically preparing pills, which gave Xiao Ze dozens of daily feedbacks. Each of those feedbacks could multiply, which, accumulated, significantly improved his alchemy technique. Sometimes, he even received surprises of hundredfold feedbacks.
Besides skills, the talents of Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin also provided good feedbacks. Although they were not as frequent as skill feedbacks, they were beneficial to Xiao Ze.
However, the binding of magical beast blood was a trap. So far, Ziyan had not given a single feedback. Even so, he had to continue with the bindings. In the northwest region, there were few people worthy of being bound.
"In the future, to improve my skills, I will have to go to Zhongzhou. Perhaps I could bind with Cao Ying from the Cao family, whose spiritual talent is quite good."
Additionally, when Xun Er improved, there would be more binding options, complicating Xiao Ze's decisions.
"I must choose the people I bind with wisely; otherwise, leaving empty bindings is useless."
Xiao Ze glanced at the state of Queen Medusa and, seeing no change, closed his eyes and began to consolidate his level. The energy in the training room began to be absorbed by Xiao Ze.
At the bottom of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, in a world of infinite lava, a large invisible fire serpent was stirring the lava furiously. A sound full of anger and violence resonated in that lava world.
"Chii!"
The Fallen Heart Flame, with its considerable intelligence, could feel its energy being absorbed, which enraged it. Although the absorptions had been small before, they had increased significantly lately. The flame felt that if this continued, the being absorbing its energy would become stronger, making it harder for it to escape the seal.
However, the accumulated energy was not enough to break the seal completely. Should it act prematurely? The large invisible fire serpent stopped, looking at the seal with eyes full of anger and hatred, and then plunged into the lava, frantically absorbing the surrounding fire energy.
The day to break the seal was approaching.
Xiao Ze, unaware of the Fallen Heart Flame's fury because of him, was immersed in his training, expanding his Essence Tree. Since his soul had settled in the Essence Tree, he had been receiving its energy constantly.
"I don't know how much longer until I reach the spiritual level..."
Xiao Ze felt his soul becoming stronger. He could prepare the sixth-level Emperor Pill without the help of the Heavenly Flame, thanks to his alchemy skill, the strength of his soul, and his alchemy cauldron.
As Xiao Ze murmured, he felt his soul becoming stronger. Golden roots appeared around him, absorbing all the spiritual energy in the training room and directing it to the Essence Tree, bringing Xiao Ze closer to the spiritual level.
In the original story, Xiao Yan had needed several opportunities, enlightenment, and soul herbs to reach this level. But Xiao Ze, thanks to the nourishment of the Essence Tree, was approaching it without so many difficulties. Although he still needed time to fully enter the spiritual level, the progress was evident.
"To reach the spiritual level, besides having a strong soul, I also need a soul training technique."
"Xiao Yan used an unnamed technique... If I don't find another way, I can join the Alchemist Tower and train there. Maybe I can obtain a soul training technique."
Xiao Ze felt somewhat frustrated. He needed to go to Zhongzhou, where resources were more abundant, to improve his soul level.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yi Xian was finally accepted as an elder in the inner academy. Normally, a student at the Dou Wang level could easily become an elder. However, due to her special constitution, the academy elders had many concerns. If it weren't for Xiao Ze, the Great Elder wouldn't have even considered her request.
The poisonous body of Xiao Yi Xian was feared in Zhongzhou, and the Great Elder, with his vast experience, knew this well. In Zhongzhou, this body had caused disasters, with descriptions like "where the poisonous body passes, no life remains, all is silence."
Finally, due to Xiao Ze, the Great Elder allowed Xiao Yi Xian to become an elder, but with the condition that if her poisonous body advanced, she had to leave the academy immediately.
Xiao Yi Xian understood that her body was feared, and although she was sad, she accepted the condition. After becoming an elder, she went to find Xiao Ze, the only one who accepted her.
