A child and an adult.
Lin Xiao knew how to choose.
Lin Xiao’s words made Yao Lao nod in satisfaction.
He hadn’t realized that this kid had such thoughts.
The old doctor smiled and took out an ancient scroll.
The scroll slowly landed in Lin Xiao’s hand: “Lin Xiao, this is the Burning Technique, take a look.”
Lin Xiao gently activated the Burning Technique and began to examine it carefully, bit by bit.
Soon, Lin Xiao closed the Burning Technique.
“Teacher, it says that you need a different kind of fire to evolve, but it seems that there is no different kind of fire in this world.”
Lin Xiao spoke slowly, seemingly unaware that there were any strange flames in the Douluo Continent.
Strange flames are brought about by the birth of heaven and earth, the fall of meteorites, or the condensation of energy in dangerous and forbidden places.
The evolution of the Burning Technique requires devouring a different kind of fire, and the success rate is not very high, making it extremely dangerous.
When Xiao Yan devoured the strange fire, he went through a life-or-death ordeal and almost didn’t make it through.
The required auxiliary materials are also extremely numerous and very rare.
Can the Douluo world really reach this standard?
It seems that the conditions for cultivation are extremely harsh.
The technique is good, but the conditions don’t quite allow it.
“If we don’t have a different kind of fire, we can use other flames instead.”
“As far as I know, every world should have different kinds of fire.”
“The world of Douluo doesn’t even have different kinds of flames?”
Yao Lao was somewhat puzzled.
In the world of Doupo, there was more than one type of different flames.
Although the energy system of the world of Douluo was not advanced, it should still exist.
But in the past 40 years, there has indeed been no mention of the existence of strange fire.
“Teacher, if we use other flames instead, can the Burning Technique still evolve and upgrade?”
“The effect will probably be much worse.”
Lin Xiao spoke up with some concern.
Forget about using a different kind of fire; we’ll have to use other flames instead.
“The Burning Technique can fuse with different flames, even if the flame’s level is not high.”
“At that point, it should be possible to use it to devour and upgrade.”
The old doctor thought for a moment and then said.
Perhaps this is a case of making up for a lack of quality with quantity, where quantitative change leads to qualitative change.
If there are enough of them, they can be comparable to different flames.
It doesn’t seem like it’s impossible.
“Quantitative change leads to qualitative change, teacher.
It seems we’ll have to collect flames from now on.”
Lin Xiao understood; since that was the case, there was no more trouble.
“Teacher, my first martial soul is a fire martial soul.
Should I use it as a foundation to fuse with fire?”
Lin Xiao stretched out his right hand, and a small cluster of pale white flames emerged, icy cold.
In Yao Lao’s words, his own martial spirit had been imbued with a trace of the essence of the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, and now that he thought about it, it had reached the level of the ultimate flame.
Moreover, it’s your own, so it’s more compatible.
The old doctor looked at the flame in Lin Xiao’s hand and nodded thoughtfully: “It is possible, but to reach a level comparable to a strange fire, your physical strength also needs to be improved.”
“Teacher, don’t forget, I also have a second martial soul: my original martial soul, Self!”
“I will use this flame martial soul to cultivate the Burning Technique, using the method from your world, teacher.”
“My own martial soul cultivates soul power.
Cultivating both together, the cultivation of the martial soul can greatly enhance my physical strength.”
“In front of outsiders, I only have one self-made martial soul, not two martial souls.”
Lin Xiao had already made up his mind: he would cultivate both soul power and battle qi.
Battle qi’s energy system was superior to soul power, so it was worth it no matter how you looked at it.
At the same level, I am an absolute force to be reckoned with.
The old doctor hesitated, stroked his beard, and said softly, “Cultivating battle qi, it’s not so easy for you to transform it into battle qi.”
“I was inside the ring for so many years, absorbing soul power and converting it into battle qi to heal my injuries.
It took me a full 40 years to regain consciousness.”
“Little one, have you thought it through?”
“At that time, there will be two energies in your body, and the compatibility of these two energies will also be a problem.”
“When one side is strong and the other is weak, problems will inevitably arise if this situation persists to a certain extent.”
As expected of the old master, his insight and ideas are in a class of their own.
The problem was immediately apparent.
“Teacher, I know what you’re saying.”
“But isn’t cultivation all about fighting against heaven, fighting against people, fighting for that sliver of hope?”
“Teacher, I want to try it.”
Lin Xiao spoke seriously, saying that the existence of two systems is difficult, but if it is truly successful, it will be an epoch-making achievement.
Moreover, from Yao Lao’s words, Lin Xiao also learned that he could transform his cultivation into battle qi.
The solution now lies in resolving the compatibility issue between the two energy systems.
“Hahaha, you!”
“Since you’re willing to go crazy, then this old man can go crazy with you for once.”
“I don’t have much strength available to me right now.”
“If you want to cultivate battle qi, with my current abilities, I can help you suppress the violent surge of the two energies before you reach the level of Battle King.”
“But you need to find a way to solve this problem before you break through to the Dou Wang level.”
“Otherwise, you’ll have to stop cultivating your battle qi.”
The old doctor chuckled softly.
How could he not help his disciple with such ambition?
However, the strength he can use is limited.
If he were at his peak, the mere coordination of energy would not be a problem at all.
Lin Xiao was deeply moved upon hearing this; his teacher was truly kind to him.
“Thank you, teacher.”
Lin Xiao expressed his sincere gratitude.
Without Elder Yao, I don’t know when I would have been able to cultivate battle qi.
Now, I can start on my own; there’s no need to worry about energy surges for now.
Isn’t this teacher much better than that good-for-nothing Yu Xiaogang?
“Teacher, when I grow up, I will definitely help you reshape your physical body!”
It’s unknown whether the Blue Silver Emperor’s soul bone can achieve the effect of reshaping the physical body.
Lin Xiao knew that the Blue Silver Emperor’s soul bone could regenerate severed limbs, but Yao Lao’s situation was different, and he didn’t know if it would work.
However, Lin Xiao quickly dismissed the idea.
Yao Lao is very strong; it’s impossible for him to rely on the Blue Silver Emperor alone.
Besides, this is a Douluo Continent.
Xiao Yan didn’t even know how much time it took to create a body for Yao Lao.
“I’m satisfied as long as you have this intention.”
“For now, your focus should be on cultivation.
I will teach you how to do these things once you have the strength.”
The old doctor smiled and said, “This little fellow is quite thoughtful.
It seems that taking him as a disciple has not been a waste.”
“Don’t worry, teacher, I will definitely rebuild your physical body.”
“By the way, teacher, do you know what level the Battle King in your world corresponds to here?”
Lin Xiao asked the question.
Since he could only cultivate to the Soul King level, he had to find out exactly what the corresponding Douluo level was.
