The First Saint of Dan Dao

Chapter 170: Invitation to Become a Disciple

After stepping onto the third floor, Tang Yan felt the temperature had doubled again, and the scorching air made it difficult for him to breathe.

"With my current strength, it should be difficult to enter the fourth floor." Feeling his own condition, Tang Yan shook his head and sighed. He took a rough look and found that there were more than a thousand seats on the third floor.

Tang Yan found a random place to sit down and started practicing.

The violent flames penetrated into the skin through the pores, and soon, Tang Yan's skin turned red.

Although the process was painful, the true Qi in the body was unusually active.

After practicing the Supreme Alchemy Scripture for a cycle, Tang Yan was pleasantly surprised to find that the effect of the third level of practice was several times higher than that of the second level.

Time passed by minute by minute, a quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour, three quarters of an hour, half an hour, an hour...

After an hour and a half, Tang Yan slowly stood up.

At this moment, the abundant spiritual energy in his body forced him to stop practicing. Taking a deep breath, Tang Yan stood up and walked out.

Old Huo and Old Zhen, who were playing chess, were now shocked.

"Profound rank seven, can stay in the third floor of the Nine Nether Sea of Fire for an hour and a half..." Zhen Lao murmured, "He should be a formation martial arts genius, Lao Huo, I want this boy!"

Huo Lao, who had been looking calm and composed, raised his beard and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about, old man!

The formation is complicated and obscure, how much time will it take to practice? You have to practice martial arts and learn formations at the same time, which is a double-task and slows down your development.

And I, an alchemist, have a respected status. Once I learn how to make pills, I can be self-sufficient in making pills and benefit endlessly. Isn't it better than learning the martial arts array?

Isn't Lang Qingyun a formation master? You take him in, and don't compete with me for this guy!"

"As long as you have the talent, formation training and martial arts training are not contradictory, but complement each other. How can it delay your training? Also, how is a formation master inferior to an alchemist? How am I inferior to you?" Master Zhen replied unconvinced.

"Okay, then let's go find that kid and let him choose for himself, how about that?" Old Huo raised his eyebrows, full of provocation.

Although Zhen Lao's face changed slightly, in this continent, alchemists are indeed more glorious, but he would rather lose the battle than the battle, so he snorted and agreed: "Okay!"

Tang Yan walked out of the Nine Nether Sea of Fire, and it was already dark outside.

Walking on the road, Tang Yan had a headache.

He still didn't know where Yu Juechen and the others lived, and as for Zi Yun... Tang Yan couldn't help but shudder. If he was caught by her, his fate would be miserable.

Just when Tang Yan was hesitating, he was suddenly locked in by an extremely terrifying aura. A chill rose from the soles of his feet and rushed straight to Tang Yan's forehead.

He was shocked and his internal energy circulated rapidly, looking forward.

"Little guy, you are really alert." A gentle voice sounded. Before Tang Yan could react, he saw two old men appear in front of him.

Although the two did not make any other moves, Tang Yan's heart was still lifted. He saw a greedy look in their eyes.

"Two seniors, if you want to rob, isn't it too embarrassing to target me?" Tang Yan said vigilantly.

Robbery?

The two elders stared at each other!

"You have less than ten thousand spiritual points on you, and your storage ring is made of rough material and can't store many things. Is there anything worth us stealing?" asked Old Zhen with a smile.

Noticing that the two men had no hostility, Tang Yan felt relieved. He bowed and asked respectfully, "What do you two seniors want from me?"

"Come with me!"

Tang Yan only felt a flash before his eyes, and then he was lifted into the air by someone. In a few breaths, he arrived at an attic.

"Senior, if you have something to say, just say it directly." Being captured for no apparent reason, Tang Yan became more and more confused.

"Little guy, you can call me Huo Lao, and this is Zhen Lao!" Huo Lao introduced gently, and then asked: "Let me ask you a question, do you want to have a superior status and be respected by the world?"

Although he felt the question was very strange, Tang Yan still nodded.

"Then do you want to obtain resources to practice faster than others?" Old Huo asked again.

Tang Yan nodded again.

"Then do you want to learn alchemy from me?" Seeing Tang Yan nodding continuously, Old Huo's eyes were filled with smiles.

Tang Yan was stunned when he heard that, and rolled his eyes in his heart. He went through so much trouble to bring him here, just wanting to teach him how to make pills?

"Master Huo, what level of alchemist are you?" Tang Yan asked.

"The peak of the fourth level." Old Huo said proudly.

Tang Yan did not agree, his eyes fell on Master Zhen: "Senior, will you also teach me how to make pills?"

"I don't know how to make pills. I'm a formation master. Do you want to learn formations? If you practice to the Mahayana level, you can make clouds and rain with a wave of your hand!" Master Zhen invited me to be his disciple.

"Formation Master?" Tang Yan was very surprised.

"That's right." Master Zhen nodded.

A hint of intention flashed in Tang Yan's eyes. According to the records in the books, the training requirements for a formation master are extremely harsh, and there are very few people who practice it.

However, if you can master it, you can attack the enemy unexpectedly and have an extra chance to save your life.

Taking a deep breath, Tang Yan asked, "Can you... let the students feel the power of the next martial arts?"

As soon as the voice fell, Tang Yan felt the air around him change, and the originally dark sky suddenly became bright.

Before Tang Yan could react, countless sharp knives fell from the sky.

Tang Yan was shocked, and the internal Qi spurted out, and his fists turned into raindrops to block the dense rain of sharp knives.

"Ding ding dang dang..." Even with the protection of his true energy, Tang Yan still felt the burning pain on the back of his fist.

Fortunately, the rain of swords did not last long and returned to normal in a few breaths.

Looking closely, where is the shadow of the knife tip?

"This is just a first-level formation. As the level increases, its power will increase exponentially." The voice of the old formation master was full of temptation.

Seeing that Tang Yan seemed to be quite interested in formation martial arts, Huo Lao could not help but get anxious and hurriedly dissuaded Tang Yan: "Boy, formation martial arts is not only very difficult to practice, but how can it be as promising as being an alchemist? Look, what is this?"

After saying this, Old Huo flipped his hand, and a fiery red pill fell into his hand.

The pill was round and smooth, with a restrained fragrance. There was a hazy aura around the pill, revealing that the pill was of a high grade.

Fourth-level elixir, Fire Cloud Pill!

Smelling the faint fragrance of the elixir, Tang Yan closed his eyes and felt a little intoxicated.

The Fire Cloud Pill is a top-grade elixir for body refinement. After taking it, it will quickly produce burning true qi, which constantly tempers the human body's meridians and soul. It is a fine product pursued by many children of wealthy families.

In the entire Tingxiang Country, there are only a few people who can take this pill.

"This is the Fire Cloud Pill, which is of the fourth grade, and its effect can transform a person's body. As long as you learn to refine pills from me, not only will this pill belong to you, but I can also guarantee you pills for future cultivation.

Once you learn the art of alchemy, even if you leave Qinglong Academy in the future, you can make any elixir you need yourself." Elder Huo tried his best to tempt Tang Yan.

Tang Yan immediately agreed: "Alchemists have a respected status. With their academic achievements, they can make friends with powerful people from all sides and accumulate countless connections. It can be said that they benefit both themselves and others. Once you embark on the path of alchemy, you will benefit endlessly throughout your life!"

Listening to Tang Yan's words, Old Huo's eyes lit up with smiles and he nodded repeatedly. It seemed that this kid was interested in alchemy.

"Little guy!" Upon hearing Tang Yan praising the alchemist like that, Master Zhen immediately stopped him.

"Old Zhen, you have said everything that needs to be said. Let Tang Yan choose for himself." Old Huo stopped Old Zhen with a smile.
