The Battle Through Heaven

The Battle Through Heaven
Progress!


His body was inside the furnace: this was the only thing that Xiao Yan felt at the moment.


After swallowing the medicinal pill, a fiery feeling suddenly emerged from his lower abdomen. Immediately, it turned into many streams of heat that forced its way into every pulse of his body in a turbulent manner. The high temperature finally caused a faint, heavy gas to appear within his Qi Path.


The high temperature flow gradually became hotter with the increase in circulation speed, resulting in the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth gently twitching involuntarily after each complete cycle. What Yao Lao said was indeed true, the small part of his fire that had been added into the pill actually made him suffer.


Although the heat flow might have caused Xiao Yan to feel pain, the effect was also very prominent. As faint, hot, and heavy threads of gas seeped out from his Qi Path and finally swirled around the inside of his body, the, Xiao Yan was able to clearly feel a huge wave of hidden energy in some part of his body like a layer of ice that had been melted by the heat, finally revealing himself. From the looks of it, it seemed like this was the medicinal strength that had been stored in his body that Yao Lao mentioned.


This medicinal strength that had been stored up was vaporized by the hot and heavy gas; turning it into a faint fog of energy that rose slowly. The fog would stick to the Qi Path, joining them before continuing through the other Qi Paths. In the end, it formed a complete cycle, turning the fog into pure energy. The energy was then poured into the rhombus-shaped energy crystal within the vortex. After receiving this wave of pure energy, the crystal body, which appeared slightly dim due to exhaustion, once again emitted a faint light, illuminating the inside of the vortex until it appeared transparent.


Some of the fog energy was also attached to his bones and cells. When faced with such pure energy, the bones and cells in his body also became more greedy. With a unsteady speed that could not be seen with the naked eye, they quickly swallowed the approaching energy fog. Once they had completely swallowed the energy, Xiao Yan could clearly sense that the bones, muscles, cells, etc., that had been injured after the big fight, were quickly restored to their peak condition.


Xiao Yan's heart heaved a sigh of relief as he sensed the Dou crystal gradually being filled with energy. His mind once again calmed down as he used all of his strength to control the overflowing energy clouds within his body, gathering them together and finally merging them into a turbulent stream of energy. After the stream completed one circulation within his body, it flowed endlessly into the Dou crystal within the vortex. The thumb-sized crystal was like a bottomless hole when faced with the energy being poured into it endlessly, not rejecting it, regardless of how much energy it accumulated.


Yao Lao medicinal pill might not be something high-rise. However, he was able to perform some sort of instigating role, completely dragging out all the medicinal strength that Xiao Yan had stored into his body in a short period of time. After which, he used a large amount of energy to quickly recover Xiao Yan's injured body. The method of harnessing the energy of others to heal was likely something that even Fa Ma would have difficulty doing.


As an orthodox ‘Pot Medication’, the number of various medicinal pills that Xiao Yan consumed was basically impossible to calculate. Moreover, Xiao Yan did not fully absorb most of these medicinal pills. After accumulating all of this over time, the naturally stored energy was enormous. After being dragged away by Yao Lao's medicinal pill, the stored medicinal strength was finally completely unleashed and used. His energy level far exceeded what Xiao Yan, or even Yao Lao had expected. TL: Medicinal Pot = someone who ate a ton of pills, usually used to describe a sick master/young master


Wave after wave of energy fog rose never ceasing from Xiao Yan's entire body. If anyone was currently able to see through his skin and look inside Xiao Yan's body, then, that person would likely widen his eyes when completely shocked upon seeing all the fog gathering all over Xiao Yan's body. Even his internal organs were completely covered in a dense fog of energy.


Xiao Yan was naturally unable to control every single detail with a large amount of energy fog being drawn out. Hence, there were some who managed to escape and started wandering randomly all over his body. In an instant, the bones, muscles, etc., within Xiao Yan's body suddenly had their own intelligence and began to use different types of methods to swallow the energy fog that had wandered about.


Although swallowing the energy in this way allowed Xiao Yan to clearly sense that his body was becoming increasingly stronger, the inner parts of Xiao Yan's body, bones, muscles, were becoming stronger, and the internal organs have an accommodation capacity that can only be increased if one lives a life of intensive training. Each has its own limits. Once they absorbed more than that limit, they would most likely end up with a terrible fate to fall apart. After thinking about the final result of how the bones or internal organs, etc., could suddenly form some crack lines with the sound of ‘retak’, Xiao Yan shuddered in fear.


Therefore, he naturally did not dare to let the bones and muscles swallow as much energy as they wanted. He immediately and hurriedly increased control over the energy fog within his body. Even after he did this, however, Xiao Yan could still faintly feel that his skin was giving off a burning pain. He knew that this was because of the energy fog that had damaged the surface of his skin.


Inside the mountain cave, Yao Lao frowned slightly as he looked at Xiao Yan's skin, which had completely turned red. He muttered softly, "Why is this little fellow's body gathering so much medicinal strength?" He pondered for a moment before temporarily storing the broken piece of jade in his hand. He flicked his finger gently and the green light opened and immediately got up. It followed the wind and expanded, finally turning into a green lotus that slowly fell down.


Yao Lao glanced towards the majestic-looking green lotus before waving his sleeves towards Xiao Yan. A gentle force glided and lifted the latter before smoothly placing it on top of the green lotus.


After Xiao Yan landed on the green lotus, a warm green-colored circular light slowly emerged from within it. As the halo rose, Xiao Yan's fiery red complexion immediately became dull. His face, which had been filled with pain, also finally relaxed.


The warm feeling that was transmitted from outside Xiao Yan's body was also felt by him. He immediately sighed in relief as he muttered to himself with a bitter smile, "Damn it. The wounds on my body have healed completely. Why so much energy? "


Xiao Yan gradually recovered his composure after issuing a curse. He silently thought for a moment and already had a plan. "Since there is such an outside force, I will use it to break through. This opportunity is the best! "


As the enormous energy fog got closer to the vortex, its size also decreased drastically. The size may be small, but moisture begins to appear in the space between the fogs. When a large wisp of mist entered his Qi Path, the fog completely disappeared completely. Replacing it was a bunch of pure liquid energy like emeralds. There were even some small, solid crystals trapped within that liquid energy.


The emerald liquid follows the same route determined by the Qi Method ‘Flame Mantra’ and completes one full circulation. After which, it quietly stopped at the entrance of the vortex. The power that was flowing slowly was like a great flood that was about to run out.


"This will determine whether I can break through or not."


Xiao Yan whispered softly in his heart as he looked at the large group of emerald energy. With a thought from his mind, the power blocking the entrance of the vortex instantly disappeared. The surging energy immediately let out a loud sound like a crashing waterfall as it charged into the vortex.


A large amount of energy rushed into the vortex and violently struck the rhombus-shaped Dou Crystal in the middle of the vortex.


"Bang!" As energy charged into the Dou Crystal, roaring sounds echoed in Xiao Yan's mind. In an instant, he nearly failed to maintain his training status.


The turbulent energy flowed into the Dou Crystal nonstop. At the end of the process, the size of the crystal actually grew much larger after absorbing this large amount of energy.


After the expansion of the size of the Dou Crystal, Xiao Yan's powerful spiritual perception could clearly sense that his own strength was rapidly surging towards the barrier that showed the difference between the two levels.


Inside the cave, Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan, whose face had become sparkling like jade. He stroked his beard and nodded slightly. With his strength, he could naturally feel the breath power of Xiao Yan rising steadily.


"Ding's." At a certain instance inside the desolate cave, a soft groan, which was almost invisible, was quietly expelled from Xiao Yan's body.


Following the appearance of this calm groan, the power that came out from Xiao Yan's body suddenly surged.


"He has already broken through to a two star Da Dou Shi? It's actually faster than I expected. The power of the medicine stored in the body of this little one is actually able to reach a degree this big? " With Yao Lao's strength, that gentle groan would naturally not be able to escape his senses. A shocked expression immediately flashed across his eyes as he spoke in surprise.


Given Xiao Yan's current strength, he would originally need at least two or three months of time to increase his strength by one level if he trained normally. Moreover, this was already considered fast enough. After he went to the Misty Cloud Sect, repeated battles with people above his level caused him to often end up in unfortunate situations. However, the benefits Xiao Yan had gained from that situation was something that even Yao Lao was unable to fully estimate.


After all, fighting was the best way to increase one's strength quickly. The extreme battle that Xiao Yan had experienced during this period of time was like building a canal. The large amount of medicinal power that existed at the moment was like water being poured into that canal. Now that everything had fallen into place, this was the perfect opportunity for Xiao Yan to increase his strength. This process went so perfectly that it even exceeded Yao Lao's expectations.


Not long after Yao Lao's startled voice fell, another soft groan suddenly shot out from within Xiao Yan's body, echoing etherically within the cave.


Yao Lao's hand stroking his beard slowly stopped. This time, even Yao Lao could not remain calm. His mouth gaped as he looked at Xiao Yan, whose breathing was actually still rising rapidly. A while later, he finally let out a long sigh and smiled as he said, "Hee, he is indeed a person full of surprises. Today, I really want to see what level you will reach, this little creature,? "
