Jia Nan Academy.
On an ordinary afternoon, Han Feng sat in the cultivation room, comprehending the "Basalt Heavenly Ancestor Sutra."
For him, who had already cultivated the "Flame Mantra," changing cultivation techniques was certainly unrealistic.
However, this did not prevent him from comprehending the mysteries within this Basalt legacy technique.
Although he was a fire attribute cultivator, the water control granted to him by the Sea Heart Flame allowed Han Feng to sense the water attribute power in the world, even more powerfully than many water attribute cultivators.
Han Feng simulated the fluctuations of water attribute energy, and countless tiny water droplets swirled around him.
These water droplets were his connection with the water vapor of heaven and earth. With his breathing, the water droplets grew larger and smaller.
"Phew!"
Han Feng slowly exhaled a long breath.
This "Basalt Heavenly Ancestor Sutra," worthy of being a Basalt legacy, was profound and unparalleled, first-class even among Heaven Rank cultivation techniques.
If Han Feng hadn't had the knowledge from his previous life, he probably wouldn't have been able to comprehend it for a while.
The "Basalt Heavenly Ancestor Sutra" explained the birth and evolution of the water vapor of heaven and earth, truly placing oneself in the perspective of heaven and earth to perceive the water vapor.
Rather than cultivating a technique, it was more like experiencing a journey of nature.
Although Han Feng did not cultivate it, just comprehending it once deepened his understanding of the water element of heaven and earth significantly.
Looking at the Sea Heart Flame again now, it felt even more intimate, as if he had taken another big step towards unlocking the Profound Meaning.
The "Basalt Heavenly Ancestor Sutra" was not something that could be seen through in one go, so Han Feng was not worried about his future limitations. As long as he continued to comprehend, there would always be different gains.
Putting away this cultivation technique, Han Feng inexplicably felt a curiosity about the Vermilion Bird legacy.
The Sikong Imperial Family's "Vermilion Bird Pure World Scripture" should be a corresponding fire attribute technique. Sikong Chan was only at the Dou Venerate realm now. Without the comprehension of Dou Saint and Dou God, it was unlikely for her to comprehend this technique. So she most likely only cultivated half of it, and the profound content afterwards would probably only be understood after breaking through to Dou Saint.
But after all, this was the legacy technique of the Sikong Imperial Family. Would it be too arrogant to ask for it directly?
Forget it. He would go and reason with the Empress after he broke through to Dou Saint first.
For Han Feng, the path of Half-Saint had no value. Going directly to Dou Saint was more suitable for him.
If others heard this, they would probably think it was too arrogant.
But cultivators who broke through directly from the peak of Dou Venerate to Dou Saint were not nonexistent.
Generally speaking, cultivators would choose to stop halfway through the breakthrough only if they were not confident in directly impacting Dou Saint, to avoid dying after failure.
Half-Saint was actually a buffer realm.
Han Feng had walked up from this buffer path in his previous life, so in this life, he had the qualifications to finish it in one step.
Leaving the cultivation room and coming to the courtyard, Han Feng saw Lin Xian'er and Gu Xun'er sparring friendly again.
The two girls didn't like to go to the martial arts arena in the Inner Academy to compete because there were too many people there, and there would always be many people shouting and cheering, making them feel embarrassed.
It was more comfortable to fight in the open space of the courtyard.
The recent growth in strength of the two girls was somewhat astonishing. Since Han Feng opened up Lin Xian'er's intake of high-level toxins, she had continuously broken through multiple small realms and reached the six-star Dou Spirit realm.
Gu Xun'er was a step behind her, only at the five-star Dou Spirit realm.
However, their strength was evenly matched. The Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame was domineering and could deter poison gas. Lin Xian'er's Woeful Poison Body was not a difficult method for Gu Xun'er to deal with.
Han Feng silently watched the competition between the two girls.
Thinking that in another two or three months, Lin Xian'er would reach the nine-star Dou Spirit realm. When she broke through to Dou King, the restrictions on toxins would be further lifted, and her strength growth rate would probably soar.
As for Gu Xun'er, the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame in her body would bring her a steady stream of promotion energy. The main thing she had to do afterwards was to control this fourth-ranked domineering Heavenly Flame step by step.
As she grew older, the Ancient Emperor bloodline in Gu Xun'er's body was also recovering. This benefit was unimaginable to ordinary cultivators.
If there was any prodigy in the world today who had a chance to skip Half-Saint directly and advance to Dou Saint, Gu Xun'er was undoubtedly one of them.
This competition ended in a draw.
The two stopped at the point of contact and did not completely let go.
However, Lin Xian'er had a vague premonition in her heart that if Gu Xun'er used her full strength, she might not be her opponent.
Is this the reason Master values her?
Lin Xian'er was secretly frustrated, but not discouraged.
Her future path was still long, and there would be plenty of opportunities for comparison in the future.
After Gu Xun'er retracted the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame, she had a tranquil smile on her face.
I believe Sister Xian'er should have felt my modesty...
Meeting the fighting spirit in Lin Xian'er's eyes, Gu Xun'er nodded slightly.
Don't worry, Sister. I won't give you a chance to surpass me.
In any aspect.
Clap clap clap!
Han Feng walked out from the dark and applauded in praise.
"Not bad, both have improved."
"Xian'er, your research on poison Dou Qi is already excellent, but there is still room for improvement in Dou Skills. I will teach you some high-level Dou Skills later, you can prepare."
Lin Xian'er nodded.
"Xun'er, you have your own understanding of the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame, which is very good, but not enough. I will teach you some experience about the power of Heavenly Flames later. I hope you can comprehend it."
Gu Xun'er nodded lightly, looking like she was being taught.
If it were anyone else, she would definitely not care.
After all, the teachings of the Gu Clan were almost the top on the continent, and no one could compare.
But Gu Xun'er was very willing to listen to Han Feng's words.
Even if it didn't help, Gu Xun'er was willing to listen.
That afternoon, Han Feng first tutored Gu Xun'er.
The two came into the house and sat cross-legged.
"Come, summon your Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame first and condense it in your palm."
Han Feng said.
Gu Xun'er followed the request and mobilized a wisp of golden flame in her body to float on her palm.
Han Feng stared at this wisp of Heavenly Flame and nodded secretly.
As expected of the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame. After releasing one layer of seal, its unparalleled dominance and power could already be felt.
The reason Han Feng was able to suppress the opponent with the Sea Heart Flame back then was purely relying on Han Feng's profound understanding of the laws of fire, in addition to the seal.
But if considered from an objective level, the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame was stronger than the four Heavenly Flames in Han Feng's hand combined.
"Can you condense a fire form?"
Han Feng said.
Gu Xun'er nodded, her mind moving slightly.
Under her control, the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame transformed into a small golden sword.
The form transformation was very stable, enough to show her solid basic skills.
"Very good."
In Han Feng's hand, the Sea Heart Flame materialized.
In an instant, the small golden sword in Gu Xun'er's palm fluctuated.
Heavenly Flames desired to devour each other. Fortunately, the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame was an owned Heavenly Flame and did not fully release its wild nature.
Gu Xun'er was slightly startled and quickly increased her control to stabilize the Heavenly Flame.
However, the condensed sword shape was already fragmented.
"The impact of external force will deform the originally perfect control."
Han Feng said slowly.
At this time, in his hand, the Sea Heart Flame transformed into wisps of water vapor, condensing into various shapes.
Although the power of the Sea Heart Flame was not comparable to the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame, under Han Feng's control, it was not flustered at all and appeared very disciplined.
"This problem can be solved slowly. What I want to ask now is, do you understand the attributes of the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame?"
"Fire and sword qi."
Gu Xun'er replied.
These were recorded in the Gu Clan.
The Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame presented the shape of an Emperor Sword. In addition to the power to burn everything, domineering sword qi was also a prominent feature.
"This is just the surface."
Han Feng raised the Sea Heart Flame as an example.
"My Sea Heart Flame, its most special attribute is encompassing all rivers and embracing all things."
"Although it also has the abilities of dispelling, purifying, and healing, these are not the main points. Your understanding of it determines its future growth direction."
Han Feng said.
"Of course, discovering the ability of a Heavenly Flame is a difficult thing in itself. You need to clarify the primary and secondary within it yourself."
Han Feng looked at the flame in Gu Xun'er's hand, reached out gently, and hooked his finger in her palm.
The fire law was released, and this wisp of Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame was drawn out by Han Feng.
Gu Xun'er watched this scene in surprise.
This is the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame!
Mr. Han just took it away like this?
Logically, the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame should resist fiercely.
"Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame, the most important thing is not the flame, nor the sword qi, but its dominance!"
Han Feng comprehended carefully, then stated his understanding.
He mobilized the fire law, preparing to give Gu Xun'er a demonstration.
Then the next second, the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame began to struggle. It shrank slightly, and then an extreme sword light tore the air and erupted in Han Feng's palm.
Han Feng squeezed his palm, instantly sealing the energy erupted by the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame. In the end, only an energy ripple spread in his palm.
"You can consider in this direction. Next, I will teach you some skills to control Heavenly Flames."
Pretending failed. Han Feng's expression remained unchanged, skipping this link.
As expected of the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame, not giving any face at all.
Gu Xun'er looked at Mr. Han's calm face, secretly amused in her heart.
Mr. Han pretending to be calm is so interesting.
For the next half day, Han Feng explained some skills for controlling Heavenly Flames to Gu Xun'er, and Gu Xun'er studied seriously.
Although Han Feng couldn't control the Golden Emperor Heaven Burning Flame, under his guidance, Gu Xun'er had begun to discipline this "disobedient" Heavenly Flame properly.
"Alright, that's it for today."
Han Feng ended the teaching.
Gu Xun'er bowed to Han Feng.
"Thank you for your teaching, Mr. Han. Xun'er has benefited a lot today."
"It's good that you gained something."
Han Feng laughed.
"By the way, did your family call you back?"
Gu Xun'er's face changed slightly.
Seeing this, Han Feng had the answer in his heart.
"It seems they have called."
Gu Xun'er pursed her lips and nodded gently.
Han Feng was silent for a moment, then said, "When you are leaving, tell me in advance so I can see you off."
"Mm."
Speaking of parting, Gu Xun'er's mood became a little low.
"Why the long face? Don't want to leave?"
Han Feng asked with a smile.
Gu Xun'er nodded without hesitation.
Han Feng was slightly silent.
"There will be chances to meet again in the future."
Han Feng said softly.
Gu Xun'er forced a smile.
"I know, I just can't bear it."
Han Feng was somewhat helpless for a moment.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have brought up this topic, making the little girl so sad.
"I happen to have plans to go to the East recently. How about you come with me, Xun'er, and I'll take you back to the Gu Clan?"
Han Feng said suddenly.
Gu Xun'er's eyes lit up. Traveling with Mr. Han?
"Okay!"
She agreed immediately.
Han Feng blinked. The little girl's mood changed quite quickly.
But it's good that she's coaxed.
Han Feng nodded.
"Then go back and prepare. Say goodbye to Xian'er and the others. I'll notify you when we leave."
Gu Xun'er nodded with a smile and walked out of the room happily.
Han Feng let out a long breath.
Instead of waiting sadly for parting, it is better to take the initiative and add more smiles to this journey.
——————————
At this time in the Outer Academy.
Xiao Yan was cultivating alone in the open space of the back mountain.
After this period of training, he successfully familiarized himself with the Dou Qi of the Dou Master realm and broke through to a three-star Dou Master.
The Inner Academy Selection Competition would be in three months.
Xiao Yan planned to break through to the six-star Dou Master realm before the competition.
On average, one star per month.
For ordinary students, this goal might be a bit challenging, but Xiao Yan had confidence in himself.
The Heavy Xuan Ruler danced in Xiao Yan's hands, the ruler wind fierce.
Han Feng had guided Xiao Yan on how to use the Earth Rank Dou Skill "Flame Splitting Tsunami Ruler," and Xiao Yan was now quite proficient in using it.
Using an Earth Rank Dou Skill at the Dou Master realm was a completely different concept from using it at the Dou Practitioner realm.
Dou Qi liquefies in a Dou Master's body, and the energy circulation efficiency is higher. Using Earth Rank Dou Skills, both the power and the burden have greatly improved.
With just this move "Flame Splitting Tsunami Ruler," Xiao Yan was confident of passing the Inner Academy Selection Competition.
Even competing for the top five was not impossible.
"In three months, I can meet Xun'er!"
Sweat dripped from Xiao Yan's cheeks, and he continued to wave the black ruler for the goal in his heart.
"You guy are quite serious."
At this time, a cold voice sounded from the darkness.
Xiao Yu walked towards Xiao Yan with her arms crossed.
"Xiao Yu? Why are you here?"
Xiao Yan looked at the visitor in surprise and stopped his movements.
"No manners, call me cousin!"
Xiao Yu looked at the sweaty Xiao Yan in front of her, feeling slightly dazed.
The little lecher she once looked down on had not only caught up now, but even displayed amazing combat power.
Just the ruler technique he used just now made Xiao Yu feel breathless.
Has his strength already surpassed mine?
Xiao Yu couldn't help but think.
"What's the matter?"
Xiao Yan smiled casually and wiped the sweat from his face.
Although Xiao Yu had once suppressed him, the two had reconciled.
"Nothing, just Mentor Ruo Lin asked me to remind you that there is a class mission tomorrow, remember to report."
Hearing about the class mission, Xiao Yan had a headache.
He didn't want to waste time doing those things.
But there was no way. In the academy, groups still couldn't be ignored.
"Alright."
Xiao Yan nodded and agreed.
"Rest early. Being so hard every day, too much is as bad as too little."
Xiao Yu hesitated for a while, but still reminded him.
Xiao Yan returned a smile.
"Got it."
