Chapter 288 Awakening, AlchemyRelic space, ancient emperor’s cave.
Zhu Kun and Zhu Ming sat cross-legged in front of the stone table, sipping tea and chatting about what had happened in the outside world over the years.
"So, after I left Dragon Island, the Ancient Dragon Clan is no longer the supreme power in the world of Warcraft. Instead, the Sky Demon Phoenix and the Nine Nether Earth Python took advantage of the situation to rise and become the three supreme families of Warcraft together with the Grand Void Ancient Dragon?"
“In fact, it’s not entirely because of your departure, Your Majesty. It’s also partly due to the rebellion of the three false kings.
But last time, after we put your dragon scale back to the ancient dragon altar, the rebels of the three major dragon islands in the west, south and north had already collapsed, and the three false kings also fled into the void and disappeared." Zhu Ming said slowly.
"Oh!"
Zhu Kun slapped the stone table with his palm, smashing it into powder, and said angrily: "Those three guys are claiming to be the ancient dragons of the Great Void. When I get out in the future, I will make them fall into the Dragon Prison forever!"
"..." Elder Zhu Ming did not dare to speak, but silently took out another stone table from his ring. Obviously, this was not the first time Zhu Kun had done this in the past few days...
"Click..."
Suddenly, a sound like breaking glass was heard. Although it was extremely small, the two of them had already reached the level of Fighting Saint and could still hear it clearly.
Zhu Kun immediately turned his head to look at the small space where Zi Yan was. When he found that the sound was not coming from there, his originally excited expression suddenly turned into disappointment.
"Your Majesty, is Xiaoyun awake?" Zhuming asked.
"Yes, it's that kid. It seems that this kid's talent is indeed extraordinary. Breaking through the bottleneck of the Nine Revolutions Dou Zun is like nothing to him..."
Zhu Kun sighed, no wonder this kid could easily break through the Dou Zun realm at such a young age.
"Haha, Xiaoyun is indeed a very talented child. I am not surprised at all that this kind of thing happened to him. The Xiao clan has hope for revival..." Zhu Ming also nodded in approval.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yun woke up completely. He stood up, twisted his body which had become stiff from not moving for a long time, and burst into a crackling sound like frying beans.
The powerful fighting spirit surged from his body, and only after Xiao Yun had adapted to the surging power did he take it back into his body.
"Haha, you kid finally woke up, come here!" Zhu Kun smiled and waved his hand to remove the small space.
The next moment, Xiao Yun flashed over and clasped his fists towards Zhu Kun to express his gratitude, "Thank you, uncle."
With the help of the rich fire attribute Dou Qi here, he not only broke through to the Ninth Transformation Dou Zun this time, but also consolidated it. He was really only one step away from the Half Saint! If it weren't for Zhu Kun, he would not have been able to do it so easily.
"Why should you thank me? I should thank you for helping Zi Yan find the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit." Zhu Kun waved his hand and said with a smile, "Besides, this is also your own ability. I originally thought that you would need at least a month, but I didn't expect that the bottleneck seemed to be non-existent for you."
"It doesn't exist!"
Xiao Yun smiled and said nothing. Bottlenecks were nothing to him.
"What are you going to do now? I estimate that it will take another month for Zi Yan to wake up. How about you chat with me?"
"Um... Uncle, let's forget it." Xiao Yun shook his head. A month or so might be very short for Zhu Kun and the others who had lived for thousands of years, and they were already used to it, but he had only lived for more than twenty years, and time was still very precious to him!
"I want to refine a pill to break through to the semi-saint realm!"
"Half Saint!? Now?"
Hearing this, Zhu Kun and Zhu Ming were both stunned. Looking at Xiao Yun with a determined face, they frowned and said slowly, "Boy, didn't you just break through to the Nine Revolutions Dou Zun? Are you in a hurry to break through to the Half Saint? Do you know what Half Saint means?"
"This junior knows that it means he has broken through to Dou Zun..."
"You're looking for a beating!" Zhu Kun's mouth twitched when he heard that, and he knocked him on the head. Immediately, a big bump appeared on the latter's head.
"Is this what I'm asking you?" Seeing Xiao Yun's resentful expression, Zhu Kun seemed a little unsatisfied, and raised his hand to pat him again. "Half-Saint is not like the Dou Zun realm, where you can break through just by replenishing your Dou Qi. It also requires other things!
The appearance of every semi-saint indicates that a Dou Sheng will appear in the continent in the future! If it is so easy to break through, there will not be less than a hundred Dou Shengs on the Dou Qi Continent..."
Dou Sheng, the real pinnacle of the continent, on the Zhongzhou continent, although there are only a few Dou Zun on the surface, in fact, there are thousands or tens of thousands of Dou Zun! In the later period, there was even an allusion of Dou Zun strongmen guarding the gate!
But what about the Dou Sheng? Excluding the eight ancient tribes, there are only a few big cats and small cats. This ratio is really too exaggerated.
The reason is that the necessary condition for breaking through to the Douluo Saint level is a Heavenly Grade Kung Fu. It can be said that more than 99% of the people on the continent are deprived of the qualification to break through to the Douluo Saint level the moment they are born!
"Do you think you can break through by just taking pills? You humans need a Heaven-level technique to break through to the Dou Sheng level, right? Otherwise, you can't even maintain the Dou Qi in your body. Do you have a Heaven-level technique?"
"I have it..." Xiao Yun waved his hand, and a ray of red-gold fighting spirit emerged. The level of the martial arts can be judged by the depth of the color of the fighting spirit. The brilliant and dazzling red-gold fighting spirit like his is exactly what a heavenly-level martial arts technique brings.
"..." The moment Zhu Kun saw the fighting spirit, he was speechless for a moment, shocked by Xiao Yun's words. He had forgotten that the latter had revealed his heavenly-level skills when he came last time.
“Ahem, Xiaoyun, although you have a heavenly-level technique, it’s not that easy to break through the semi-saint bottleneck!
I know you have a monstrous talent, but if you fail to break through, it would damage your foundation and you would lose the greater good..." Even Zhu Ming, who was used to seeing miracles happen to Xiao Yun, advised him.
In his thousands of years of dragon life, he has never seen anyone who wanted to break through to the semi-saint level right after breaking through to the ninth level of Dou Zun.
"Just give it a try. If you really fail to break through, don't we still have uncle? With uncle's methods, there will surely be no accidents."
Xiao Yun shook his head and still insisted on his own idea. He knew that the two people in front of him were worried about him.
But there was no way he could tell the two of them about the panel plug-in!
"This place has abundant fire energy, and with my uncle by my side protecting me, I'm afraid it will be hard to find such conditions in the outside world!"
"Okay, since you are confident, I won't say anything more!" Although Xiao Yun's explanation was very far-fetched, Zhu Kun didn't say anything more.
What the former said was true. If the breakthrough really failed, he could indeed take action to reduce the backlash as much as possible so that it would not affect Xiao Yun's future practice.
"Alas..." Elder Zhuming wanted to say something else, but all his words finally turned into a sigh.
As for Xiao Yun's attempt to break through to the semi-saint level, he guessed that it would most likely end in failure.
However, Xiao Yun had no idea what the other party was thinking. After clasping his fists in salute to the two of them, he quickly moved away and did not stop until he reached the edge of the square several thousand feet away.
"call out!"
With a wave of his hand, a scarlet medicine cauldron and hundreds of medicinal herbs appeared in the air. After rotating one circle, the cauldron fell heavily on the square.
"call!"
Looking at the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron in front of him, Xiao Yun took a deep breath and calmed his emotions. This time, what he was going to try to refine was the Fire Returning Pill!
A few years ago, it would have been impossible for him to obtain this pill that could attract nine-colored thunder, but for Xiao Yun now, it is not too difficult. After all, his soul power is much stronger than before!
The thought flashed through his mind, and Xiao Yun waved his hand. A pitch-black flame emerged and poured into the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron. The extreme heat caused the temperature around his body to rise rapidly.
When the temperature rose to a certain point, his vast soul power surged out, identifying and picking up high-grade medicinal herbs one by one, and throwing them into the medicine cauldron continuously.
The pitch-black flames simply tumbled, and the pure medicinal power contained in a herb was perfectly extracted...
Just like this, although it was the first time for Xiao Yun to refine the Fire-Returning Pill, his movements were smooth and beautiful like a painting.
On the other side, the two dragons, Zhu Kun and Zhu Ming, were also attracted by the noise of Xiao Yun refining the elixir and cast their eyes over.
Looking at the densely packed medicinal essence suspended in the flames, Zhu Kun was somewhat unbelievable and said hesitantly: "This kid... is he so good at refining pills?"
Yes, I didn’t notice it just now. What kind of powerful elixir does Xiao Yun have to refine in order to break through to the semi-saint realm?
"Ahem, Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, Xiaoyun is known as the number one genius alchemist in Zhongzhou. At the same time, he is also the youngest eighth-grade alchemist master recorded in the Danta..."
