The Battle Through Heaven

The Battle Through Heaven
Unexpected Surprise, Black Finger


Xiao Yan slowly walked through several streets before stopping outside the inn. After that, he entered and went up to the second floor. He walked towards the quiet outdoor area, knocked on the door gently and directly entered.


Hai Bo Dong sat cross-legged on a chair in the spacious room. He closed his eyes and a faint white-colored cold mist floated above his body. As he inhaled and exhaled, a cold mist moved along the gap in his nose and entered his body. With his body filled with energy, a thin layer of warm jade like light seeped out from his old face.


"He truly deserves to be a Dou Huang. Even though he was much older than Nalan Jie, looking at his vitality, he would likely at least be able to live for another fifty years if no mishaps occurred. If he was lucky enough to break through and become a Dou Zong, he would likely enter the category like an old monster. " Xiao Yan closed the door and gently walked into the room. He glanced at the bright and energetic face of Hai Bo Dong. When he compared her to Nalan Jie, whose entire body was enveloped by a deadly aura, he could not help but hold an emotional breath in his heart.


Although the voice Xiao Yan made was very small, it was undoubtedly as clear as thunder to a strong person like Hai Bo Dong. Instantly, the ice-cold air around his body was quickly absorbed into his body to be stored. Hai Bo Dong then opened his eyes and quickly looked around the room while carrying a chill. Only when his gaze turned to Xiao Yan's body did the cold air finally begin to gradually retreat. At the same time, the sharp and imposing demeanor surrounding the outside of his body also quietly returned to his body. He glanced at Xiao Yan's tired face and opened his mouth to ask, "Have you finished it?"


"The poison was deeply embedded in Nalan Jie's body. Although I have been relieving the poison for a while, it will at least take seven days for ‘Searing Poison’ to completely disappear. " Xiao Yan sat on the soft bed and replied lazily.


"Oh ..." Hai Bo Dong nodded his head smiling and said in surprise, "It looks like the extent of your control over ‘He Heavenly Fire’ is quite good. You can actually complete the treatment with a high degree of difficulty. This method of inserting ‘Heavenly Fire’ into someone else's body was something that even famous alchemist grandmasters did not dare to use easily. " To be a Dou Huang, Hai Bo Dong naturally clearly knew just how much risk one had to take when inserting ‘Heavenly Fire’ or any flame into one's body to remove the poison.


I'm just lucky. Xiao Yan shook his head. He knew that most of the praise for him could control ‘Api Green’ Lotus Core with such familiarity because he consumed ‘Fire’ Lotus Seed some time ago.


Xiao Yan took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the bed. He wiped his tired face, Then he stretched out his palm from his sleeve and with a frown, stared at his slightly blackened fingertip. After which, his hand slowly formed a training seal and gradually closed his eyes.


The moment he entered training mode, Xiao Yan's mind quickly went to where the vortex was. His mind moved slightly and a wisp of green-colored flame gushed out from within the Spirit of Reception. He wrapped it in Dou Qi and slowly twisted it above the vortex.


Xiao Yan's mind continued to observe this green-colored bundle of flames that was repeatedly writhing. A moment later, a green-colored flame wriggled under Xiao Yan's control. The temperature suddenly rises. Following the rise in temperature, a faint black-colored fog actually appeared out of nowhere amidst the flames.


"What a powerful poison. Not only was it able to withstand the temperature of ‘Heavenly Fire’, but it was also able to secretly join it. If not for my very high compatibility with ‘Api Green Lotus Core’, I'm afraid I might not feel it … It was truly up to its reputation as a powerful poison that even Dou Huangs feared. " Xiao Yan muttered in his heart as he looked at the black-colored fog.


"I have to purify them. Otherwise, if this thing remains in my body, it is a time bomb that might suddenly explode at any moment. The result was "Xiao Yan mused for a moment, fretting with his thoughts. The green-colored flame that enveloped the black fog started to fluctuate as if it was bubbling. The heat temperature is repeatedly rising.


As he was removing the poison for Nalan Jie, the temperature of Xiao Yan's ‘Heavenly Flame’ was only changed to a moderate level because he was afraid that he would accidentally burn Nalan Jie to ashes. Now that he was purifying the poison fog in his own body, he naturally did not need to be careful given the extent of his compatibility with the flames.


As the temperature of the green-colored flame rose rapidly, the group of black-colored fog also began to form ripples. However, this ‘Searing Poison’ is not an ordinary thing. Even under such high temperatures, it was still quite sturdy and did not immediately disappear.


Under roasting at such a high temperature, the size of the black-coloured mist slowly shrank. In the end, those threads of black-colored fog began to fuse into pitch-black beads. A small light shone on the inside of the bead as if it contained surging energy.


The strange change of ‘Searing Poison’ caused Xiao Yan to be stunned. He stared blankly at the black-colored beads rolling on the green-colored flame. From the investigation of his mind, he could clearly sense that this black-coloured bead actually contained a powerful energy within it.


"What's going on? It was impossible for the ‘Searing Poison to have such energy .. "Xiao Yan hesitantly muttered in his heart. He stared intently at the dark black bead as the temperature of the green-colored flame suddenly surged once more. Fatigue as a result of the high temperature was something that the Spiritual Strength Xiao Yan had difficulty enduring.


As the green-colored flame lit up once again, the black-colored beads finally started to move. Its surface slightly shook and threads of black-colored mist began to seep out from the bead's body. After which, it was burned by the flame and purified into nothingness.


Black-colored fog threads were repeatedly emitted from the bead's body. The color of the beads also gradually changes from a darker black color to a lighter black color …


Observing the slowly changing color of the bead, Xiao Yan's heart heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time he increased the refining speed.


When the last thread of black-coloured mist emerged from the bead's body, the dark black bead actually turned into a small, pale-white round ball that flickered. Winding around the transparent-looking film on the surface of the beads, one could see waves of rolling rich liquid energy within them.


"What pure energy"


Xiao Yan was stunned as he stared at the small transparent round ball. A while later, he frowned slightly and muttered in his heart to himself, "Logically speaking, a poison like ‘Searing Poison’ would definitely not have such pure energy. Don't tell me this energy belongs to someone else? "


"This is Nalan Jie"


The sudden thought caused Xiao Yan's heart to jump. It was a long time later before he calmed down. He pondered for a long time and slowly he felt relieved. ‘Searing Poison’ remained hidden in Nalan Jie's body for so long. Since it was eroding his body, it was reasonable that it would also swallow some Dou Qi. Once this continues for a long time, it may end up storing it in a fairly frightening amount. This might be something that Nalan Jie might not be happy about but for Xiao Yan, who had accidentally brought ‘Searing Poison’ into his body, it was a windfall from heaven. According to the purity level of this energy, Xiao Yan might be able to completely refine and absorb it.


Faced with this unexpected windfall, some secret pleasure appeared in Xiao Yan's heart after he was empty for a moment. Given his character, it was naturally impossible for him to return this to Nalan Jie. Therefore, this abundant energy was considered a flower and she stored it.


As his mind rotated, green-colored wisps of flames gathered into the heads of small flame needles. After which, Xiao Yan gently pressed this needle flame onto the transparent bead's body. Suddenly, the bead exploded violently. A large amount of liquid energy that looked somewhat blue flowed out from it. Just as it was about to rush in all directions.it was forcibly controlled by Xiao Yan who was ready and started to have energy circulating along the route of the Qi Path.


When the liquid filled with this energy completed one cycle, the pale blue color inside the liquid had disappeared completely. It turned into pure energy that anyone could absorb.


Although this energy was currently already extremely pure, it was already extremely pure, Xiao Yan was still carefully using ‘Heavenly Fire’ to refine it once again until the latter actually started to vaguely show signs of being slightly viscous. Only then was he convinced and poured it into the vortex.


Once this liquid energy entered the vortex, it was quickly transformed into the same color as the vortex. Then, it began to separate, trembling and turning into droplets that were all the same size. They were then thrown into a vortex.


Sensing the sensation of the vortex being filled, Xiao Yan could not help but shake his head. The energy that had been poured right now had actually added nearly twenty more drops of pure liquid energy into the vortex. According to this type of efficiency, if he could absorb the same amount of energy for three more times, he would likely jump to a seven-star Dou Shi in less than half a month.


Inside the room, Hai Bo Dong's gaze watched Xiao Yan intently. When he saw Xiao Yan open his eyes, he could not help but say with a smile, "It looks like you have suddenly become much stronger."


Although Xiao Yan's changes were not too drastic, it was naturally very easy for Hai Bo Dong to sense the ability to detect the changes of the former, instead,


"Yes." Yeah." Xiao Yan nodded his head as he lowered his head to look at his finger. His face changed unconsciously. He could see that the tip of the middle finger of his right hand was still enveloped by a black-colored circle.


"What's going on? Didn't I already completely eliminate ‘Searing Poison’? " Xiao Yan's face was a bit ugly as he stared at the black fingertips and said in a deep soft voice.


"What's that?" Seeing Xiao Yan's expression, Hai Bo Dong was confused. He's walking forward. When he saw the black-colored finger, his expression also changed. With a frown, he said, "This is ‘Searing Poison’? How do you put it in your body? "


"I don't know. I did not expect that this thing could actually withstand the roasting of my ‘Heavenly Fire’. "


"Impossible. ‘Searing ordinary Poison’ will definitely not be able to withstand ‘Heavenly Flame’. As for this transformation now .. maybe it was because ‘Searing Poison’ had been hiding in Nalan Jie's body for too long, which had created a kind of unique mutation. He pondered for a long time before he slowly said to Xiao Yan, "Can you try and see if something is wrong with your body?"


Xiao Yan nodded. His right hand was stretched out and opened. A green-colored Dou Qi suddenly emerged from him and the gazes of the two people stared intently at the Dou Qi.


Under the observation of the two of them, the green-colored Dou Qi rose rolling for a while before some faint black-colored marks appeared on its surface.


"Ck ck, it is really disturbing your Dou Qi. Really worth mentioning ‘Searing Poison’ how scary. " Watching the black mark, Hai Bo Dong subconsciously shook his head and said, "How are you feeling?"


"It seems like nothing's wrong"


Xiao Yan frowned and his face was filled with ignorance. He turned his hand a little. The Dou Qi that was contaminated with the black-colored mark also followed the movements of his hands and did not harm Xiao Yan. Instead, he felt that the strength of the Dou Qi seemed to be becoming stronger.


"Uh I also don't know what really happened. But looking at the situation now, it seems like ‘Searing Poison’ has no intention to poison you. Maybe it's been refined into something you can use? " Hi Bo Dong shook his head and said.


Xiao Yan pursed his lips. His gaze noticed the green color of Dou Qi mixed with some black colored marks. Following his intention to make a move, the green-colored Dou Qi suddenly wriggled. However, the black-colored mark was actually forced to move towards the middle finger of his right hand. From his attitude, it seemed that he was trying to force it.


A black mark filled his middle finger. A moment later, his entire finger had completely turned into an incomparable black color. His deep appearance emitted a slight calm and extremely strange light.


"How poisonous!" Seeing that Xiao Yan's finger had turned pitch-black, Hai Bo Dong's expression changed drastically. He shouted involuntarily, "Didn't you say that you have perfected it? Why does it still have such a powerful poison? "


Xiao Yan's expression also repeatedly changed. How could he hope that a simple poison removal would actually put him in this condition.


"It seemed to be within my control and had no sign of biting me." A moment later, Xiao Yan, who did not feel anything was wrong shook his head slightly. He stretched out his middle finger and suddenly raised his head into Hai Bo Dong's eyes.


"What are you planning?" Seeing Xiao Yan's strange expression, Hai Bo Dong hurriedly took a step back.


"Help me test what effect this thing has ..." Xiao Yan opened his mouth and smiled. Immediately, without waiting for Hai Bo Dong's reply, his finger suddenly pierced the latter.


"Well, don't mess around. This is ‘Searing Poison’. Damn "footsteps Hai Bo Dong retreated repeatedly. He looked at Xiao Yan who was quickly and suddenly storming. All he could do was to be cursed helplessly and extend his hand. A mysterious ice mirror appeared in front of him.


Carrying the momentum of his body charging, Xiao Yan stabbed his finger into the ice mirror without dodging or pulling back. At the point where the two came into contact, a thread of black steam seeped out from Xiao Yan's finger. The ice mirror, which was enough to block the blow from a Da Dou Shi, quickly corroded and formed a deep hole. Xiao Yan's finger passed through the ice mirror and suddenly moved to the side. The powerful mysterious ice mirror was completely split apart …


Seeing Xiao Yan open his ice mirror easily, Hai Bo Dong's expression changed. His body dodged to the side and he jumped onto the crossbar. After which, he lowered his head and helplessly cried at Xiao Yan, "Founder. Can you not carelessly play around with this thing? It is ‘Searing Poison’. Even with my strength, it would be very troublesome if I was tainted with that thing. "


Xiao Yan smiled at Hai Bo Dong. He then lowered his head to look at that strange finger. The emotion in his eyes was rather voluptuous. The destructive power of ‘Searing Poison’ has far exceeded his expectations. This kind of strange attack that came in a puzzling manner caused Xiao Yan to feel fear in his heart above being secretly delighted.


Although the destructive power of this black finger was not weak, its original form was something that changed from ‘Burning Poison’ which even Hai Bo Dong was so afraid of. ‘Searing Poison’ currently seemed to obey Xiao Yan's orders, but how did he know if this frightening thing would suddenly erupt in the future. Given how even Nalan Jie, who had the strength of a Dou Wang, was transformed into a miserable way by ‘Searing Poison’, the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth started to shiver slightly.


Seeing Xiao Yan's demeanor, Hai Bo Dong was also clear from his ex's fear. He quickly descended but still kept a considerable distance away from Xiao Yan. In a comforting tone, he said, "You don't need to worry too much. I think the ‘Searing Poison’ in your body should have experienced some sort of mutation. Otherwise, such a situation will not appear ... but regardless of how it changes, you have ‘Color Fire’ to protect your body. Basically, you won't end up in the same condition as Nalan Jie. "


"Haha, maybe you should rejoice. When you stumble, you actually end up having some kind of very strange ability. In the future, this black finger, would probably cause many people to fall into your hands. "


"Ah, hopefully"


Xiao Yan sighed and could only nod with a bitter smile. Following his intention, the black color on the dark black finger slowly subsided. A moment later, it completely returned to its normal color.
