Xiao Yan slowly said, "Generally speaking, a person's power cannot be fully exerted. Only when facing mortal danger will that hidden power erupt."
Xun'er nodded in agreement, profoundly understanding: "It's like the tempering of life-and-death battles, which is the best way for people to discover their potential and break through their shackles."
"Although Xun'er possesses the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, she hasn't completely mastered it," Xiao Yan brought the conversation back to the original topic. "This is not only related to the state of the Heavenly Flame but also to your strength."
The Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame owned by the ancient clan is naturally an incomparably powerful Heavenly Flame, but the current Xun'er... is still too young.
If a few more years passed, and Xun'er's strength significantly increased and she underwent some tempering, she would surely be able to utilize it exceptionally well.
However, a few years was simply too long a time.
Xun'er naturally understood her own situation very well.
Although her cultivation speed was not slow, she had always been cultivating in seclusion in the Xiao family. And since she had almost never fought with anyone, it would still take a considerable amount of time for her to fully comprehend the subtleties of the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame.
Xiao Yan glanced at the long zither in Xun'er's hand and smiled slightly: "However, a spirit-attribute weapon is an ultimate condensation that mobilizes your Dou Qi and soul power. Every strum of the string represents your full-strength attack."
"No wonder it's so powerful," Xun'er looked up at the mess covering almost a hundred-meter radius.
Just a simple strum of the strings already possessed such power. If unleashed with Dou Skills, what kind of destructive power would it erupt with?
Looking at the purple crystal pillars incinerated and cracked by the Emperor Flame Everbright, Xiao Yan gently shook his head: "It's just that this power is too great; we can't cultivate here."
This valley had received some blessings from nature, and destroying it like this would be a pity.
Moreover, Hai Bodong was still cultivating here and could not endure too much disturbance.
"Let's change places." Xiao Yan thought for a moment, then reached out and embraced Xun'er's soft waist. With a single step, he leaped out of the valley, and the wings on his back reappeared.
"We're leaving, what about Elder Hai here?" Leaning in Xiao Yan's embrace, Xun'er tidied her beautiful hair and glanced in the direction of Hai Bodong's cultivation spot below.
"There won't be any major problems." Xiao Yan formed a hand seal with one hand, his speed gradually becoming a blur.
With a low shout, he pressed his arm downwards, and vast energy poured out, instantly forming a large array, like an inverted black and white bowl, covering the entire valley.
Seeing Xiao Yan effortlessly cast a large array, Xun'er was quite surprised.
Even she hadn't expected that besides Dou Qi, Dou Skills, and alchemy, Xiao Yan also possessed talent in this area.
Moreover, this array was extremely fast to cast, yet its power was astonishing.
With her keen perception, this array carried extremely strong fire-attribute energy fluctuations.
Even an ordinary Dou Zong's attack, if it landed on the array, would first have five-tenths of its power burned away.
The array Xiao Yan set up at his residence in the Chu Yun Empire was much more intricate than this one.
However, this was deep within the Magical Beast Mountain Range; it was already very safe, so there was no need for too much trouble.
Xiao Yan scanned the surroundings, chose a direction, then intensely flapped the wings on his back, which were larger and more solid than those of most Dou Huangs, and sped off into the distance like lightning.
He had cultivated in the Magical Beast Mountain Range for a period, so he was quite familiar with the terrain here.
After flying for a quarter of an hour, Xiao Yan gently landed in a desolate valley with Xun'er in his arms.
Looking at the wings on Xiao Yan's back, Xun'er's beautiful eyes shone with a strange light: "I've only read about the speed of layered wings in books; I never thought it would be so fast."
In just a quarter of an hour, they had almost covered the distance between two cities.
This speed was enough to rival some Dou Zong powerhouses.
Xiao Yan retracted his wings: "Although flying Dou Skills are rare, they are not nonexistent. However, if used by Xun'er, a suitable magical beast would naturally need to be chosen for specialized crafting."
"Brother Xiao Yan, I don't want that thing," Xun'er said with a look of disdain, contrary to her earlier surprise and astonishment at the speed of flying Dou Skills and layered Dou Qi wings.
"After learning a flying Dou Skill, there will be a huge mark on the back, which is horribly ugly," Xun'er lowered her head, somewhat embarrassed.
Xiao Yan couldn't help but recall how Xun'er looked when she lowered her head: her dark, beautiful hair spread out, making her skin appear exceptionally flawless and fair, several times more beautiful than white jade.
Xiao Yan could somewhat understand Xun'er's resistance.
However, having an imprint wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
Little Fairy Doctor's flat stomach, without an ounce of excess fat, bore an exquisite imprint.
Moreover, due to the Woeful Poison Body, that imprint was quite enchanting. Combined with Little Fairy Doctor's fresh and ethereal aura, it created a contradictory sense of beauty.
Especially when one got closer to examine it, held between those plump, jade-like legs.
After a long stalemate, Little Fairy Doctor, unable to bear it, released a stream of primordial venom. Her lower abdomen trembled violently, and that special imprint seemed to come alive.
Truly...
Thinking of his cultivation with Little Fairy Doctor, Xiao Yan couldn't help but recall Little Fairy Doctor's rather powerful jade legs.
Clearing his throat, Xiao Yan said, "Perhaps there are flying Dou Skills that don't leave imprints."
"Flying Dou Skills are themselves extremely rare. To also have special requirements would make it too difficult," Xun'er shook her head, not believing such a Dou Skill existed.
Ordinary factions could only generally understand special things like flying Dou Skills, but she, coming from the ancient clan, had a very thorough understanding of flying Dou Skills.
The creation of flying Dou Skills, from the time their manufacturing method was born in ancient times, would leave a corresponding imprint on one's back.
Over time, the manufacturing methods of flying Dou Skills and some ancient cultivation methods have almost been lost.
Even if there were forgotten treasures, some flying Dou Skill manufacturing methods survived.
It was already extremely difficult to find all the manufacturing materials, let alone improve the manufacturing method.
Xiao Yan did not argue with Xun'er about the creation of flying Dou Skills.
Flying Dou Skills were somewhat similar to the Fen Jue cultivation method, capable of advancing through special means.
If they continued to evolve, they might still be effective even after reaching the Dou Di strength.
"Let's not talk about that for now; let's cultivate the current Dou Skill first." Xiao Yan suddenly raised his wrist, soul power surged from his glabella, and he mentally organized the Dou Skill "Emperor Flame Severed Chapter" which he had specially created for Xun'er.
After a slight pause, Xiao Yan raised his hand and tapped Xun'er's glabella, directly transmitting the Dou Skill to her.
