Chapter 945: This Woman Is Truly Terrifying!

(1/5, request subscription)

"I'm only at the true qi realm right now—once I reach the Five Elements realm, can I overpower a Battle Emperor?" Xiao Yan's eyes sparkled with eager anticipation.

The Five Elements realm is the third stage of the Immortal Martial Path.

There are several more major realms ahead, making her feel utterly at ease.

Who would want to exhaust themselves to death when a path to heaven is within reach?

The Burning Scripture is powerful, but extremely dangerous.

"Huh, you're awake?"

Xiao Yan turned her head and looked toward the ring.

As she spoke, the air fell deathly silent. After a pause, white light rose from the ring, drifting out a beautiful woman, her body ethereal, her gaze solemn.

"You found me?"

Xiao Yan snorted: "Of course I found you. Should I call you Master Yao, or Auntie Yao?"

Auntie Yao froze.

"You know my identity too?"

Xiao Yan nodded: "I also know you possess a cultivation art called the Burning Scripture!"

Auntie Yao was stunned again.

Very few people know about that scripture.

"Don't worry—I have no interest in taking your things." Xiao Yan smiled, her palm gathering true qi, radiating a terrifying aura, "With my strength, I don't need that thing."

"That's true." Auntie Yao nodded. "Then why did you call me out?"

"You've absorbed my battle qi for years—no rent to pay?" Xiao Yan snorted.

Auntie Yao's expression changed sharply: "You still want the Burning Scripture?"

"Of course not—I want to learn alchemy." Xiao Yan shook her head. "Though if you're willing to give me the Burning Scripture, I won't refuse."

"Of course not, I want to learn alchemy," Xiao Yan shook her head. "Of course, if you want to give me the Burning Scripture, I certainly won't refuse."

That was a supreme cultivation art—how could she treat it like an afterthought?

"Learning alchemy isn't easy." Auntie Yao's expression turned serious. "This craft isn't something anyone can just pick up."

"Teach me once, and you'll see if I can learn it," Xiao Yan said. "I think I'm quite smart."

"There are plenty of smart people on the continent, but few who master alchemy." Auntie Yao spoke with pride. "Besides, you have no flame—how can you alchemize?"

Xiao Yan smirked: "Who told you I have no flame?"

She pointed a finger, and immediately a transparent flame rose from it.

It was true qi flame.

The flame was small, like a candle's glow, yet it filled Auntie Yao with dread—as if its fall could scatter her soul into nothingness.

The flame was not large, like a candle's glow, yet it made the Medic Aunt feel a chill—as if the moment it fell, it would scatter her soul.

Auntie Yao asked.

Xiao Yan smiled: "True qi flame—it's born from refining ordinary fire into true qi. It's pure, and for alchemy, it may rival even strange flames."

"You know about strange flames too?" Auntie Yao was even more shocked. "And what is true qi?"

"True qi? That's a long story." Xiao Yan extinguished the true qi flame. "True qi is the refined form of ordinary fire through the Immortal Martial Path—you can manifest it once you reach the true qi realm. Above true qi, there are seven more realms. I'm only at the true qi realm now."

"The Immortal Martial Path?" Auntie Yao frowned. "Has the world developed another path besides battle qi, after all these years I've slept? The second realm equals half-sage. If you reach the ninth realm, wouldn't you surpass a Battle Emperor?"

Above this realm are seven more levels. I am merely at the True Qi realm now.

Xiao Yan burst out laughing. "How powerful is a Battle Emperor? At most, he's equivalent to the Five Elements realm—barely reaching the Divine Power realm. The ninth realm? That's a being capable of creating a great world."

"Stronger than a Battle Emperor?"

Auntie Yao felt dizzy.

Xiao Yan laughed out loud, "The Battle Emperor is only so powerful—roughly equivalent to the Five Elements Realm, at most reaching the Divine Power Realm. The ninth realm? That's a being capable of forging a Great Continent.

"More powerful than the Battle Emperor?"

Upon hearing this, Yao Yi felt dizzy.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Yao felt dizzy.
