In the underground space, because of the imbalance of power in Shi Yan's body, uncontrolled Dou Qi and True Qi continued to emanate in a form visible to the naked eye, pushing the surrounding Fire Spirit Rats away one after another. Pucci was even more swept around by the strange wind, and followed the fire spirit rats towards the edge of the space.

"Aunt Jing, can you drain his power as well," Arus asked.

"I'm afraid not, the power in his body is overflowing, and my soul power can't get close, even if I barely get in, it will increase Shi Yan's soul burden, and there is no way to relieve him," Zhu Jing said.

"What to do? What to do? Arus shouted anxiously.

Just when the two of them were panicking, a ray of light appeared above Shi Yan's head, and I saw an old man slowly falling behind Shi Yan, looking at Shi Yan's charred and swollen body, and sighed helplessly.

"Who are you?" Arus asked.

"This kid is really nonsense, if it weren't for the power of your father and son's inheritance, you would have died here," the old man said.

The old man slapped Shi Yan's back, and the cyclone and Neidan in Shi Yan's body instantly quieted down, although they were still round, but compared to just now, they were much quieter, and then in Shi Yan's meditation world, an old man slowly appeared beside him and sat cross-legged.

"You are?" Shi Yan looked at the old man and said in surprise.

"Me? I appear in the form of your ancestor Shi Xin, you can call Shi Xin," the old man said.

"The Shi Xin who defeated the Red Flame Earth Emperor? My ancestors? Shi Yan was surprised.

"Although I don't want to admit it, it's true, little ghost, don't kowtow when you see your ancestors" Shi Xin looked at Shi Yan and said.

"Meet the ancestors," Shi Yan said, and immediately knelt in front of Shi Xin.

"Hahahaha, you are a sensible child, you are better than your father, if he can be like you, why not fall so far" Shi Xin smiled.

"My father? Have you met my father? Isn't he already dead in battle? Shi Yan asked.

"Yes, the body has been destroyed, but fortunately, I met the old man to keep his soul immortal. It's a great monster that wants to kill your father, your father is not only physically destroyed, but also his soul is damaged, just now the old man is mending your father's soul, but he found that the blood relay power in his body is going upstream, I guess there must be something wrong with you," Shi Xin said.

"Father, he's still alive?" Shi Yan said happily.

"It's about to be killed by you, you kid, since you dare to absorb the fire spirit at a young age, if you are burned to death by a strange fire, then your father will also be in vain, and I will save it in vain" Shi Xin said.

"I'm sorry, then my father is okay now," Shi Yan asked.

"With the old man here, you can rest assured for the time being, but the descendants of the Shi family really have a bit of courage, but unfortunately the old man can not use much power, you need to wait for your father to completely recover before he can break the seal, you don't have to work too hard, this time you are lucky, you use a different fire 'Earth Emperor', if you absorb other different fires, I can't do anything" Shi Xin said.

"Got it, ancestor, Shi Yan knows it's wrong," Shi Yan said.

"Hehe, in general, it's still terrifying, I'll help you drain half of your fighting qi and true qi, and the rest of your strength requires you to breathe slowly, remember, your body has been seriously damaged, don't mess around before you don't have a good elixir, otherwise no one will be able to save you" Shi Xin said.

"Shi Yan knows," Shi Yan said.

"Very good, very good, not much to say, I can't leave there for too long, I'll help you first," Shi Xin said.

~~~~~

In the underground space, the uneasy aura has been completely suppressed, and Shi Yan's body has slowly recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, compared to just now, Shi Yan's strength has calmed down much more.

"What's going on?" Arus asked.

"It seems to be an incomparably powerful soul power, and when it enters his body, Shi Yan's power seems to be suppressed," Zhu Jing said.

In the meditation world, Shi Xin hooked his fingers, put away the two forces, and then looked at Shi Yan's cyclone and Neidan, although half of them were taken away, they were still very full, and there was a faint rhythm to be promoted.

"Huh~ Shi Yan, with the help of different fires, your fire attributes have been completely improved, but different fires are different fires after all, and it will take a while to completely tame it, as long as you have enough patience and determination, it will become a part of your body sooner or later" Shi Xin said.

"Knowing the ancestor, if it weren't for the ancestor this time, Shi Yan would really die, Shi Yan thanked the ancestor again" Shi Yan knelt on the ground and said verbally.

"Be obedient, I will take back this power of yours, just when you honor your father, with this power, it will also be very helpful to your father," Shi Xin said.

"Ancestor, when will I see my father?" Shi Yan asked.

"When you are at the peak, although your father's soul power is weak, but your father and son are connected by blood, if one day your soul power is strong to a certain point, you can help your father be reborn, but before that, I remind you again, with me, your father is fine, you can't be in a hurry when you practice, as long as the time is ripe, the old man breaks the seal, you and I can join forces, and you can be invincible in the world" Shi Xin said.

"Ancestor, you speak with style," Shi Yan said.

"Stinky boy~ It's rare for the old man to be so emotional, you are indeed the same as your father said, don't talk nonsense, the weak strength of the old man is not enough to support it for too long, the road ahead is very long, Xiaoyan, you have to persevere, don't tell others about your father~~" Shi Xin said, and his soul began to blur.

"Shi Yan knows," Shi Yan said, kowtowing again.

~~~~~

After the Red Flame Earth Emperor left, Shi Yan slowly exhaled a breath of turbid qi after wandering around the Dou Qi and True Qi in the Great and Small Zhou Tian. When he opened his eyes again, he was greeted by a weak fire spirit rat and two anxious faces. As soon as Shi Yan was about to open his mouth, he felt a sharp pain spread throughout his body.

"Puff~" Seeing that Shi Yan was not moving, Puqi slowly walked to Shi Yan's side and poked Shi Yan with his little hand.

"Whew~" Shi Yan raised his head and took a deep breath, and then slowly spit it out, except for gasping for breath, Shi Yan was speechless.

"Puff~" Puqi Yile, seeing that Shi Yan was fine, immediately jumped on Shi Yan's shoulder.

"It hurts~" Shi Yan suddenly screamed.

"I'm scared to death by you, I can really live 10 years with you," Arus said with tears in his eyes.

"It hurts, am I ugly now?" Shi Yan looked at Arus and said.

"You've asked for a lot, it's good to be alive, what kind of bicycle do you want?" cried Arus.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Yan, my aunt couldn't help you with anything when you were in the most difficult time," Zhu Jing came to Shi Yan's side and said ashamedly.

"Auntie, it's not your fault, it's me who is too willful, I promise, I won't do this again in the future, this time it's all because I didn't listen to you and let you worry about it" Shi Yan smiled reluctantly.

Since Zhu Jing is a soul, she can't shed real tears, but she still can't control her emotions and covers her mouth and turns her back.

"Senior brother, I just saw an old man appear behind you, who is he?" asked Arus.

"I don't know~ I'm so uncomfortable now, give me water to drink," Shi Yan said weakly.

"Oh oh oh oh" Arus hurriedly poured out the clear spring water, and poured it into Shi Yan's mouth bit by bit, Shi Yan was burned by the fire, and his body was poisoned by fire, but fortunately, he absorbed the Emperor of the Alien Fire, this part of the fire poison was well controlled, and the rest of the poison was slowly consumed by the clear spring water soaked in this water spirit stone.

"It's much better, thank you," Shi Yan said with a smile.

After drinking the clear spring water, his whole body was much refreshed, but the body was burned extensively, and this pain still made Shi Yan suffer. For a whole week, Shi Yan could only lie there in pain, unable to eat anything but drink water. Fortunately, the fire stimulated the medicinal properties in the body, and the power of the pills temporarily stored in Shi Yan's body was stimulated at once, and after a month, Shi Yan's burned skin was mostly healed.

~~~~~

In the altar of the Shi family, the Chiyan Earth Emperor slowly appeared in the middle of the altar. At the same time, a weakened soul emerged from within a golden pill.

"Teacher, how is Xiao Yan?" Quartz asked.

"It's okay, this kid doesn't know where to get a piece of 'fake clothes' (faded snake skin), there is a trace of the fire spirit of the 'Earth Emperor' strange fire, since it was sucked by him, fortunately, I felt it in time and absorbed his general strength, otherwise there would really be a problem" Chiyan Earth Emperor said.

"I'm sorry to worry about you, teacher," Quartz said.

"Hmph~ Come less, now I know that the old man is good, it's too late," Chiyan Dihuang said.

"Hehe, teacher, you're still blaming me," Quartz laughed.

"Alas~" Chiyan Earth Emperor sighed, "It's not weird, it's weird, it's weird, it's not weird, in general, it's not weird."

"Teacher, you speak with style," Quartz said.

"You, you have a good son, do you know, everything is better than you, even if you talk like you, it's really a failure" Chiyan Emperor said disdainfully.

"Teacher, when Shi Yan breaks through the level 2 Dou Master, I will teach him the sealing technique of the magic circle, as long as there is the blood of the Shi family, the seal can be lifted and your power will be returned to you," Quartz said.

"It's also a matter of time before the seal is broken, but it doesn't have the strength, and it will be very difficult for your soul to repair, but I told Shi Yan that when he becomes a strong man, he can also help you resurrect," the Red Flame Earth Emperor said.

"The kid? I'm confident in him," Quartz laughs.

"Hehe, he's a proud child, okay, okay, let's continue, it will take decades for him to grow up," said the Red Flame Earth Emperor.

In the space, calm was restored, and the Chiyan Earth Emperor once again urged his strength to inject Jinpeng's golden pill into the quartz soul body little by little, compared to the beginning, the quartz's soul body was already much stronger, and the Shiyan Earth Emperor was also surprised, he couldn't imagine that since the human soul space was so large, it could accommodate the golden pill of the demonic beast.

~~~~~

Time flies~

On the Chifeng grassland, the wind is still as strong as ever, and during the day, caravans will pass by from time to time. And at night is the world of monsters and strange beasts, who fight and play unscrupulously on this grassland. No one knew that there was still a family living underground.

Arus came in from the entrance of the cave, carrying a large bag in his hand, the space ring that Shi Yan gave him was already full, and the rest could only be wrapped in a package, as soon as he entered the underground space, Pucci got out of its cloak and jumped to Shi Yan's side.

"Senior brother, there is a situation in Guling Town again, I heard that it was attacked by a group of unknown demon beasts not long ago, fortunately, there are soldiers stationed, and the president of this time is not dead," Arus said.

"Really? Beat away a group of mercenaries, and a group of demon beasts, what do they want to do" Shi Yan sat there, quietly looking at the stove in front of him.

"Alas~ who knows, then again, it's been a year, when are we going to hit the road?" asked Arus.

I saw Shi Yan turn around again, the 13-year-old Shi Yan had already recovered, the eight veins of the Qi Jing had recovered, and his hair had become very long, under the guidance of Zhu Jing, Shi Yan tied a slender pigtail on the back of his head, and his appearance had changed a lot compared to when he was 12 years old, and his skin was much fairer. When he laughed, there were two more small dimples on his cheeks, and the two rows of small white teeth made people look like a very quiet boy, which was a world of difference from the boy who was scorched black before.

"My 7th Rank Dou Qi has been full for a long time, and it is really difficult to promote this Dou Qi too much, no matter how I refine it, it feels very slow," Arus said.

"Soon, my meridians have recovered seventy-seven-eighty-eight, with the help of clear spring water, it should be fine in a short time, and I will accompany you to practice when the time comes" Shi Yan said.

"Forget it, I'm not a little bit worse than you. But Senior Brother, you have already cultivated 9 stages of double cultivation, why hasn't there been any movement in 1 year," Arus asked.

"I suppressed it with the 'Earth Emperor', gave up the opportunity to be promoted, and finally balanced the two qis, and I couldn't rush to advance," Shi Yan said.

"Okay, I've found all the medicinal materials you want, since you've been well, you'll refine the medicine if you're fine, look at this group of fire spirit rats, how fat they have become, and they will have sparks when they fart," Arus said.

Shi Yan looked at the fire spirit rats around him, after eating his elixir, some of them were as big as Puqi, in order to thank this group of little guys for sacrificing their lives to help him, Shi Yan didn't bother less, this year, not only refining the gold creation medicine, but also refining a lot of military food pills, and also learned to refine the 'gathering qi dispersion' and 'Xiao Huandan' refining. Half of the reason why Arus was able to be promoted to the peak of the 7th dan was due to the credit of 'gathering qi and dispersing'.

"It's okay to say that this golden medicine and military food pill are twice as expensive as the medicinal materials of Xiao Huan Dan and Juqi Dispersion, as for the 'Bodhi root, lotus seed, heroic spirit grass, animal bones, meat fairy lingzhi, snow lotus petals' that you want, it is simply outrageously expensive" Arus said, placing the medicinal materials in front of Shi Yan little by little.

"Xiao Yan, you want to refine the 'Soul Birth Incense Bead'" Zhu Jing asked.

"Yes, Aunt Jing, I have used up your 'Soul Bead', and I have been refining medicine all year long, just to improve my refining level, and I can help you refine some 'Soul Pill'" Shi Yan said.

"Your mind Aunt Jing understands that you are already a second-grade pharmacist when you refine the 'Xiao Huan Dan' and 'Gathering Qi Dispersion', but this 'Soul Birth Incense Bead' also needs at least the ability of a fourth-grade pharmacist," Zhu Jing said.

Pharmacists are divided into 9 products, and the first 3 products are all good to say, and ordinary pharmacists can achieve them through hard work. Starting from the 4th grade, there are extremely high requirements for the attributes of the practitioner, the level of cultivation, the refining technique, and the control of the heat. Pills with 4 grades and above 4 grades often have much higher requirements for attributes, and only better attributes can accurately grasp the essence of various herbs, spirit stones, animal blood and other raw materials. In addition, pharmacists below the 4th grade, the refining of materials alone is enough for them, and the essence that high-grade pharmacists can refine in a few hours, they often have to refine for a few days, and the effect is not ideal.

"It's the most difficult thing to refine medicine, there are so many things to refine medicine, the teacher asked us to build equipment, and let you be a foundry," Arus said.

"There is a big difference between building and refining medicine, pharmacists pay more attention to spiritual power, and casters pay more attention to physical strength, generally speaking, only cultivators with double cultivation have the qualifications of casters, at least after Shi Yan becomes a fighting master, it often takes tens of thousands of hammers or even hundreds of thousands of hammers to play a piece of equipment, compared to the foundries, the pharmacists are still quite happy," said Zhu Jing.

"Senior brother, you will either live with the Dan furnace or the hammer in the future," Arus looked at Shi Yan and said.

"Aunt Jing, according to what you said, the strength of the pharmacist and the foundry must be very strong," Shi Yan said.

"That's not a little bit stronger, the requirements of the two professions are already harsh, and their strength naturally can't be ignored, so cultivators know that it's not terrible to offend a Venerable, what is terrible is that that Venerable is a medicine master or a foundry," Zhu Jing said.

"Huh?" Shi Yan was surprised.

"I'll go, then I'll follow you, it's not just going to be windy, it's going to rain, it's going to be rainy, it's no problem to walk sideways," Arus said.

"I was really defeated by your naivety, it's already very good to be a fighter, you are now promoted quickly, slowly you can only be promoted to two stages in one year, then one stage in one year, and finally one stage in two years, you can count slowly, and when you become a Venerable, it may be a few decades before you become a Venerable" Zhu Jing said.

"When you say that, I don't even feel hopeful?" Arus said.

"Senior brother, don't be discouraged, the ancient beast teacher also said that you lack the five elements, you don't have the thunder attribute yet, and said that you can only be a level 1 fighter in 200 years, look at you, isn't the speed of progress very fast" Shi Yan said with a smile.

"Yes, it won't be long," Arus laughed.

"Of course, the human race has been groping for so long, and in the past few hundred years, it has begun to focus on cultivating offspring, and in the past 100 years, the effect has been particularly prominent. There are already a lot of young fighters and mages, with Xiao Yan's foundation and cultivation, others can achieve what they can achieve in 100 years, it is estimated that you only need 60 years, or less, things in this world are not absolute" Zhu Jing said.

"Aunt Jing, with you here, I can feel at ease, then again, how can I improve my grade, and what should I use as the standard?" Shi Yan asked.

"You have to take the medals of the medicine associations of various countries as the standard, they will assess the pharmacists, mainly to give you some pills for you to refine, and if you can be any pills by the teachers of the medicine association, you will be awarded the corresponding grade medals," Zhu Jing said.

"Oh, Aunt Jing, can you tell what kind of product I am," Shi Yan asked.

"Judging from your method of refining the small pill, 2 grades are more than enough, but I haven't seen you refine 3 grades of pills, and I don't know if you have enough of 3 grades," Zhu Jing said.

"Hehe, let's try refining 4 grades," Shi Yan said with a smile.

"It's a good thing for pharmacists to refine more medicines, it's up to you, as long as you have money," Zhu Jing said.

"There's no money," Arus said.

"Huh? Didn't I let you sell a lot of pills? How can there be no money? Shi Yan asked.

"Yes, it is true that the small Huan Dan and Qi Gathering Scatter you refine can sell more than a dozen copper spars, but the materials you want also cost money, do you know, these Bodhi roots, lotus seeds, especially the animal bones, snow lotus petals, 40 copper spars can only buy a little bit, I spent all your money, and the rest of the big Huan Dan materials are still borrowed from the boss," Arus said.

"Borrowed?" Shi Yan was surprised.

"Yes, I told them that you are a very powerful pharmacist, mainly because they saw Xiao Huandan and Juqisan as if they met their own father, all major pharmacies are vying to buy your medicine, they are willing to deal with you, I feel that as long as you open your mouth, they can give you anything, and if you don't get a wife, you can send you" Arus said.

"Go, go, say something useless, then how much money do we owe?" Shi Yan asked.

"It's not much, it's just two silver crystals in the front and back," Arus said.

“？？ How much?? Shi Yan asked

"Hehe, Xiao Yan doesn't need to panic, with your current level, just refining a few bottles of pills is enough for 1 silver crystal," said Zhu Jing with a smile.

"Really??" Shi Yan looked at Arus and smiled dryly.
