115: Chapter 115 Primal Dharma Body? Sovereign Realm?

"Brother Xiao Ting, do you mean you're planning to cultivate the Burning Technique?"

Xun'er pretended not to know Xiao Ting's thoughts.

Based on the content of their current conversation, it was only reasonable for her to guess this way.

"No." Xiao Ting tightened his grip on Xun'er's hand and said earnestly, "If I were only at the Dou Practitioner or Dou Master realm right now, I would definitely cultivate the Burning Technique."

"Though this path is difficult, it contains the opportunity to become one of the world's top experts. To be with you forever and gain your family's approval, I need that kind of strength."

"But I am already a Dou Ling, and I've found another path to strength that is uniquely mine, so there's no need for me to cultivate the Burning Technique."

"I want you to cultivate this mantra."

"Me?" A perfectly timed look of surprise appeared on Xun'er's face.

"Exactly, you." Xiao Ting's tone was more serious than ever. "Of course, I don't mean starting right now. After all, gaining strength by devouring the Amethyst Winged Lion King's Sub-Flame only proves this mantra is strange and has the ability to evolve; it doesn't guarantee it can devour Heavenly Flames."

"What I'm thinking is that after Brother Yan devours the Green Lotus Core Flame, if the mantra truly evolves again, then you should cultivate it."

"I've already stated the reason—I believe you can have a path that belongs solely to you from the very beginning."

"Perhaps the faction behind you doesn't lack Earth Class High Level or even Heaven Class mantras, but that doesn't mean they are absolutely suited for you."

"A mantra that can evolve by devouring Heavenly Flames could theoretically surpass the Heaven Class one day, and it would suit you perfectly."

"The only difficulty might be the Heavenly Flames, but if you're willing to trust me, don't worry about that. I have special ways to find Heavenly Flames for you."

Xiao Ting was completely serious about having Xun'er cultivate the Burning Technique.

Setting aside the fact that Han Feng barely succeeded after cultivating only half of it, the first known person to successfully cultivate this mantra was the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor. After obtaining the mantra by chance, he grew from a tiny Heavenly Flame into the Emperor Flame, proving that the Burning Technique wasn't something only Xiao Yan could cultivate.

The fact that the Burning Technique could evolve aligned with the cultivation path of a Primal Dharma Body. Furthermore, the fact that this mantra originated from the world itself rather than being a human creation supported this theory.

The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor breaking through to Dou Di by cultivating the Burning Technique might have been because the Purification Lotus Demon Flame and the Void Swallowing Flame—the two unique Heavenly Flames—contained Source Emperor Qi.

However, it was also possible that when the Burning Technique evolved beyond the Heaven Class, it could use some method to condense and obtain the Emperors Source, allowing one to complete the breakthrough.

Regardless of which it was, cultivating the Burning Technique would be beneficial for later obtaining the Ancient Emperor's inheritance and the emperor pill embryo within the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave Abode to break through to Dou Di.

The reason Xiao Ting tentatively decided to let Xiao Yan and Xun'er break through to Dou Di wasn't out of selfless sacrifice or a simple desire to slack off; rather, it was a backup plan.

With the Diary, he had obtained the Purple Heaven Flame during the first Great Dao Blessing. What about the second, the third, and those even further in the future?

He felt that he could complete the breakthrough without needing the opportunity to become an Emperor found in the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave Abode at all.

He hadn't written this in the Diary before because he was looking at things from an observer's perspective, maintaining a sense of detachment.

He wouldn't write it now because the Diary could be seen by others.

If Xiao Yan became an Emperor, it could awaken his Dou Di Bloodline, which would benefit him even if he did nothing.

Helping Xun'er become an Emperor was because she deserved it and would help him wholeheartedly.

"How could Xun'er not trust Brother Xiao Ting?" After patiently listening to Xiao Ting's long explanation, Xun'er only responded to the last sentence. She smiled beautifully and serenely, "Then we'll wait until Cousin Xiao Yan devours the Green Lotus Core Flame before I decide whether to cultivate the Burning Technique."

"A mantra that can evolve by devouring Heavenly Flames is actually quite tempting, but if Brother Xiao Ting doesn't speak up, I can hardly compete with Cousin Xiao Yan for it."

"If it's a fair competition, I'll definitely help you," Xiao Ting said without a second thought.

Afterward, the two stopped talking about that topic and instead chatted idly, discussing Dou Techniques and stories from the biographies of eccentric figures.

As the sky grew dark, Xiao Ting returned to his courtyard and began recording in his Diary.

[I gave Queen Medusa the name Cai Li. Her mouth was soft yet stubborn this time, but in the end, she couldn't out-stubborn me and chose to accept the name.]

[She has successfully broken through to Dou Zong. Next, she needs to hibernate for a period to adapt to the explosion in her bloodline and strength, deeply forging her foundation.]

[Her companion snake soul, the Purple Nether Flame Snake, has also successfully evolved into a Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python soul. I named it Xiao Cai. I'll find a way for it to exist independently in the future, so Cai Li will have her first clansman she can trust completely and know inside out.]

[Although Cai Li is asleep, with Xiao Cai around, there's no need to fear even an ordinary Dou Huang. Besides, Hai Bodong is in Wutan City.]

[The seal inside Yun Yun hasn't been undone, but she has met Xun'er and knows Xun'er's background is unusual. Surely she won't be stupid enough to break the seal and flee.]

Yun Yun: !!!

Why was it that every time she was mentioned in the Diary, it was always more or less related to being stupid?

Xiao Ting definitely had a prejudice against her!

"I must prove myself—I am not stupid!" Yun Yun thought somewhat indignantly.

[Regarding Xun'er, I've already spoken to her about cultivating the Burning Technique. She trusts me unreservedly and plans to follow my advice. If Brother Yan has no issues devouring the Green Lotus Core Flame and the Burning Technique indeed evolves, she will begin her cultivation.]

[Since she trusts me so much, I will never fail that trust. I will help her obtain the inheritance from the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave Abode.]

[Furthermore, based on my guess, the Burning Technique is related to the Primal Dharma Bodies of the Great Thousand World.]

[This is a ticket to the Ruler Realm.]

The women: !!!

The update to Xiao Ting's Diary had ended, but the women were deeply shocked, unable to recover for a long time.

They didn't understand what a Primal Dharma Body was or what kind of level the Ruler Realm was.

But they could be certain that the value of a Primal Dharma Body surpassed the entire Fighting Qi Continent.

After all, because the Fighting Qi Continent lacked the Emperors Source, it was no longer possible for Dou Di experts to be born.

Yet, after cultivating the Burning Technique, the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor became the only Dou Di expert in tens of thousands of years.

As for the possibility that the Void Swallowing Flame and the Purification Lotus Demon Flame contained the Emperors Source, it was impossible for the peak nine-star Dou Sheng experts before the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor not to have noticed. Thus, it was more likely that the Burning Technique synthesized it.

And such a powerful and strange mantra was merely a prerequisite cultivation condition for a Primal Dharma Body; the preciousness of a Primal Dharma Body was evident.

And the Ruler Realm—just hearing the title made one feel its power. It was at least a realm above Dou Di.

"As expected, Xun'er's position in Xiao Ting's heart is irreplaceable," the women thought to themselves.

The step of building a good relationship with Xun'er was absolutely, undeniably correct.

Time flew like an arrow, and the years passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, several days had passed.

On this day, Huo Zhi appeared within the sphere of influence of the Burning Flame Valley.

Yao Ling also appeared within the sphere of influence of the Pill Tower, arriving at Cao City.
