337: Go to the ancient world
“She returned to Yunlan Mountain.”
Lin Xiu was originally looking at the red mark on Yi Nan's bottom, but when he heard Little Fairy Doctor's words, his hand trembled and pressed down.
Immediately, Yi Nan let out a pig-like wail.
“Still crying?! I told you not to run around. You're so young and already daring to run everywhere. When you grow up, won't you try to reach the sky?”
Little Fairy Doctor snatched him from Lin Xiu's arms, her attention completely drawn to her son, and she didn't continue to inquire about Yun Yun.
Lin Xiu secretly gave Yi Nan a look of guilt, 'Son, later your dad will refine some healing medicine for you…'
A few days later, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran had not yet arrived, but the Headmaster came out first.
Lin Xiu met Mang Tianchi in the depths of the Academy.
“Take me to the Ancient World? Why?”
Hearing Mang Tianchi's words, Lin Xiu thought it was something major, but he didn't expect it to be this.
Mang Tianchi nodded lightly, “The Ancient World has not been open to the outside for many years. This time, it seems to be their Ancient Family's coming-of-age ceremony. I'm taking you to broaden your horizons.”
Then, he paused slightly, “At the same time, let them see that our Canaan Academy students are no worse than their Eight Ancient Clans.”
“So, you're asking me to fight, right?”
Lin Xiu heard this and wasn't very interested. Fighting and bickering were for children. He was already a father.
If Mang Tianchi had said he could let him enter the Sky Tomb, he might have been excited.
Because in Lin Xiu's impression, this opening of the Ancient World, besides Xun'er's coming-of-age ceremony, was also the day the Sky Tomb opened.
It contained the remains and tombs of many ancient powerhouses.
If he could get inside, perhaps he could extract the Bloodline and power of each Family from their skeletons.
Those people were all various powerhouses, and there were many other powerhouses; their Bloodline must not be weak.
Perhaps it could accelerate his progress in condensing Source Energy.
“Do I look like a warlike person? I said it's for broadening horizons, so I naturally won't lie to you.”
Mang Tianchi's beard puffed up high. 'Are you taking this old man for a bold and reckless little fellow like you?' He didn't have the confidence to provoke the Ancient Family proactively.
But just as a hint of certainty appeared on Lin Xiu's Face, he heard the Headmaster's tone shift, “If someone actively provokes trouble, we certainly won't be afraid of it.”
“Headmaster, I heard there's a Sky Tomb inside the Ancient World. Can you send me in?”
Lin Xiu asked.
Mang Tianchi looked at him suspiciously, “Most of those inside are Old Ancestors of the Eight Ancient Clans. There's no one named Lin. Why are you going there?”
“I'm curious.”
Lin Xiu certainly couldn't say he wanted to dig graves.
Because if Mang Tianchi knew, he would definitely jump up and down.
“I don't have that much Face. Every time the Sky Tomb opens, the spots are fixed. It's more practical to ask your Void Ancient Dragon friend than to ask me.”
Mang Tianchi heard Lin Xiu's answer and didn't doubt it at all. This kid even dared to drill into the Void Thunder Pool.
Isn't it normal to be curious about the Sky Tomb?
“The Void Ancient Dragon can do it?”
Lin Xiu was stunned, a little surprised.
Mang Tianchi explained, “Every time the Sky Tomb opens, the Restrictions in the surrounding Void Realm will weaken. With their talent, they might be able to penetrate inside.”
Seeing the eager expression on Lin Xiu's Face, he knew how bold Lin Xiu was.
So, Mang Tianchi immediately added, “Don't mess around, kid. The Sky Tomb is no joke. Moreover, I don't get along well with the Void Ancient Dragon, so even if you bring someone, I won't take him into the Ancient World.”
“No, no, Headmaster, I was just asking.”
Lin Xiu quickly waved his hand, but a hint of fervor flashed in his eyes.
If the Void Ancient Dragon can do it, there's no reason why he can't.
Xiao Yan will definitely enter the Sky Tomb this time.
To be safe, I can give him a Jade Slip then to use as a locator.
“Hmm, go back and prepare. I'll notify you when it's time to depart.”
When the Void Ancient Dragon was mentioned, Mang Tianchi's gaze fixed on the ground, and he lost interest in chatting, perhaps thinking of something.
Lin Xiu got up and left.
Indeed, he needed to prepare to enter the Sky Tomb. There were Soul bodies of Half-Saints, and even Dou Saints, inside.
Without some strength, he wouldn't be able to move freely inside.
“It's time to prepare thoroughly. It's best if I can deal with Xiao Xuan first. He's the big brother of the Sky Tomb. If I have a good relationship with him, won't I be able to roam freely in the Sky Tomb?”
Lin Xiu felt he could try to retrieve Xiao Xuan from the Sky Tomb.
This old fellow is currently just a remnant Soul, but that's okay. He has Soul Infant Fruit and other things that can restore Soul Origin power.
Restoring Soul power is child's play for an Alchemist like him.
After waiting two days, Xiao Yan finally arrived and immediately came to find Lin Xiu.
Beside him, Nalan Yanran, learning that her teacher Yun Yun had returned to Yunlan Mountain early, looked at Lin Xiu strangely.
Given her teacher's reliance on Lin Xiu, why would she leave early? Shouldn't she have used the excuse that Nalan Yanran hadn't arrived yet to stay a few more days at Canaan Academy?
“Then I'll leave first too.”
Nalan Yanran worried whether her teacher had been bullied by Lin Xiu and decided to return to Yunlan Mountain first to see what Yun Yun's situation was.
After her figure disappeared into the sky, Lin Xiu looked at Xiao Yan beside him, “Shall we go directly to choose a Cultivation Technique?”
“Okay, Senior Brother.”
Xiao Yan was currently in great need of an Advanced Cultivation Technique, and the time Xun'er had given him was getting closer.
He had to replace his Cultivation Technique with an Advanced one and master it as soon as possible.
Otherwise, with Xun'er's powerful background, if he were to be troubled by her Family members and had no strength to deal with it, wouldn't he be embarrassing Xun'er?
The Ling Quan who appeared at Canaan Academy back then still left a deep impression.
“You seem to be under a lot of pressure. Don't be too tense. If you keep your nerves taut, it might become troublesome if you can't bear it and collapse one day.”
On the way, Lin Xiu noticed Xiao Yan's seriousness and impatience and reminded him.
Xiao Yan gave a bitter smile, “If I had half of Senior Brother's ability, I'd almost be able to relax.”
“Everyone is different. You're already very good.”
Lin Xiu shook his head.
He achieved what he had today by relying on the advantage of knowing many things beforehand and continuously improving his status.
Xiao Yan, on the other hand, relied more on himself and Yao Lao.
They were different.
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and nodded, not responding.
Seeing this, Lin Xiu didn't say much either.
The two arrived at the place where Cultivation Techniques were stored, and Lin Xiu directly led him to the top floor.
“Xiao Yan greets Sage Skyfire.”
Seeing Lin Xiu greet an old man inside the building, Xiao Yan immediately followed suit, his eyes filled with emotion.
He hadn't expected to see a living Dou Saint powerhouse for the first time at Canaan Academy.
After Lin Xiu finished talking with Yao Tianhuo, he turned around, “Xiao Yan, these are all Earth High-Rank Cultivation Techniques. Feel free to look, but I highly recommend you choose the Nine Revolutions Flame Manipulation Skill.”
Following Lin Xiu's gaze, Xiao Yan saw a dark red Jade Slip on a shelf.
Senior Brother recommended it, so does it have something special about it?
“It has a similar effect to the Flame Mantra, also capable of devouring flames, but it cannot increase its Rank. Each type of flame absorbed will increase its power by one point. After reaching nine revolutions, it can rival a slightly inferior Heaven Low-Rank Cultivation Technique.”
Lin Xiu explained.
This Cultivation Technique was a Fusion of other Cultivation Techniques he had. The nine-revolution limit meant nine flames operating simultaneously.
“The Nine Revolutions Flame Manipulation Skill is indeed good. I'm also Cultivating it now.”
Yao Tianhuo's Face revealed a smile, showing a look of satisfaction.
Because his Five Round Li Fire Method, to exert its strongest power, required condensing five Fire Spirits.
And each Fire Spirit corresponded to one type of flame.
This Nine Revolutions Flame Manipulation Skill could greatly balance the conflicts between flames.
