109: Chapter 109 The Unruly Mu Shengyan

Early Foundation Establishment Stage, Middle Foundation Establishment Stage, Late Foundation Establishment Stage!

Xiao Tian and Su Xin's cultivation levels soared all the way to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage before finally, resolutely halting.

This wasn't even their limit.

Their bodies still contained terrifying energy.

They only suppressed the urge to continue their Breakthrough, worried that advancing too quickly would destabilize their Foundation.

With a single thought from Xiao Tian, a distance that would normally require several flashes of heavenly thunder to cross was traversed in an instant.

Appearing beside Ye Fan, Xiao Tian raised his hand, grabbed the wood life flame that was dazedly telling the truth on the spot, and his fierce, overbearing Thunder Spiritual Power invaded.

The wood life flame instinctively resisted and pushed back.

Ye Fan directly used the power of their contract to suppress it.

The wood life flame stiffened its pitiful fiery body, trembling as it felt Xiao Tian's domineering thunderous power coursing through it.

The thunderous power within its body, sensing Xiao Tian's power, chased after it like a cat drawn to catnip, or a moth to a flame.

Xiao Tian led the thunderous power within the wood life flame on a merry chase, round and round.

Slowly, the wood life flame seemed to find a rhythm, trying to control that thunderous power itself.

The thunderous power immediately rebelled.

Xiao Tian frowned, thinking to himself, 'No wonder the wood life flame can't control it; it actually dares to resist.'

He snorted coldly, not too loud, but carrying absolute authority.

The thunderous power within the wood life flame instantly stiffened, lowering its head in a pitiful, aggrieved manner.

"Hehe!"

The wood life flame was delighted.

It muttered cheekily, "Run, resist, aren't you all so awesome? Why aren't you running anymore? Too lazy to run?"

It had a rather insolent, triumphant air about it.

Ye Fan felt a headache coming on.

It took Xiao Tian half a day to finally help the wood life flame completely Revered Master the thunderous power within its body.

The wood life flame was overjoyed.

It jumped onto Xiao Tian's shoulder in one leap, carefully controlling its flames so as not to burn through Xiao Tian's magic robe.

Sneakily leaning close to Xiao Tian's ear, it whispered, "Big guy, since you took care of it, how about I follow you from now on?"

Most wood life flames might like Alchemists, but this one was different; it liked the feeling of possessing power.

Xiao Tian had helped it, so it wanted to follow Xiao Tian.

Especially since Xiao Tian's Thunder Spiritual Power was so strong; it could definitely help it improve even more in the future.

Xiao Tian's gaze darkened. He grabbed the little flame creature on his shoulder, his fingers tightening.

Spirit flames are formless. Xiao Tian didn't harm the wood life flame in the slightest. Instead, his hand was scorched by the flames, turning to charcoal.

Xiao Tian channeled his Thunder Spiritual Power into the wood life flame's body, directly inciting the thunderous power within it to cause chaos.

Faint arcs of lightning appeared on the wood life flame's surface, and it let out a series of miserable shrieks.

"Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop..."

Xiao Tian tossed the wood life flame onto the ground, looking down at it from above. "Still want to follow me?"

The wood life flame shook its head like a rattle drum, then "whooshed" into Ye Fan's Dantian, using this action to demonstrate its resolve.

It would never betray its Revered Master!

Ye Fan looked at Xiao Tian's charred palm, a flicker of worry in his eyes. He took out a box of top grade burn ointment. "Brother Tian, why take it so seriously? I can tame it."

Xiao Tian nonchalantly took the ointment and applied it, immediately feeling a cooling sensation. He couldn't help but sigh, "Comfortable!"

Seeing Xiao Tian's 'I'm not listening, I'm not listening' expression, Ye Fan gave up on trying to persuade him.

Seeing this, Xiao Tian grinned. "Brother Fan, you should go and make your Breakthrough too!"

"After we break through, let's go help Brother Chu Feng kill some people."

Ye Fan glanced in Chu Feng's direction, didn't say anything, and immediately began forming hand seals to refine pills.

His "Great Dao Pill Canon" only required refining pills and absorbing the pill Qi to achieve a Breakthrough.

The pill Qi required for the Qi Refining Stage was ten furnaces of top grade, full batches of first-level pills.

The wood life flame sent a wisp of its flame beneath the Pill Furnace.

Taking out the Alchemy Materials his Grandmaster had prepared for him from his space ring, Ye Fan began refining the Materials.

His hand seals subtly resonated with the Great Dao, every movement carrying an aura of the Dao.

One material after another was added, and the Pill Furnace was sealed.

The Spirit of the Wood Spirit sent a ball of vibrant Wood Qi into the Pill Furnace.

The wood life flame immediately increased its flames, completely enveloping the Pill Furnace, as if declaring sovereignty.

Ye Fan frowned, immediately forming hand seals to salvage the situation while shouting sharply, "little flame! Reduce the fire!"

Xiao Tian's eyes flashed with lightning, staring straight at the wood life flame.

The wood life flame immediately shrank its flames, maintaining the previous size.

The Spirit of the Wood Spirit chuckled inwardly.

This fool!

Doesn't even understand that discretion is the better part of valor!

Serves it right to be disciplined!

Although Ye Fan's batch of pills experienced some twists and turns, the result was good.

A full batch, all top grade!

The pill Qi entered Ye Fan's body, and his aura grew stronger by a fraction.

Ye Fan continued opening the furnace.

Meanwhile, far to their west, millions of miles away, in the ancient Moon Mountain Range behind the Heavenly Sword Sect...

Since Chu Jiaojiao performed the Devilish Qi Tracking Technique, the furrow between her brows had never smoothed out.

In her perception, Chu Feng hadn't moved at all.

Kong Yishui had been paying close attention to her expression.

His mood grew worse with each passing day.

Three days passed, and Kong Yishui's patience ran out.

"Chu Jiaojiao, how much longer until Chu Feng arrives?"

Chu Jiaojiao opened her eyes, pressing her lips tightly together. "He's not coming."

"What?!" Kong Yishui was furious. "Are you saying I've been waiting here for three days for nothing?"

Chu Jiaojiao looked coldly at the fuming Kong Yishui. "What's the use of yelling at me? I'm not attached to Chu Feng right now; I can't control his actions."

The two were at a stalemate, the atmosphere tense.

Dongfang Wu, who had been looking for an opportunity, suddenly brightened. She gripped her Junior Sister Dongfang Wu's space ring and forcibly erased her spiritual imprint.

"It hurts! It hurts..."

Dongfang Wu simply couldn't bear the pain of having her contract severed, and began to sob.

Dongfang Wu's pupils suddenly contracted. She hadn't expected her Junior Sister to be so sensitive to pain that she'd make noise even after losing consciousness.

Seeing the two looking over, Dongfang Wu quickly took out a communication talisman in front of them.

Fortunately, although her Junior Sister was mischievous, she still had one communication opportunity left on the talisman linked to their Revered Master!

"Revered Master, one of the two people with million-bounty warrants is a Formation Master! Please, whatever you do, don't bring Senior Brother Yan Huo! He's only at the Golden Core stage, his mind is simple, and there are Formations they've set up everywhere in the Moon Mountain Range. Senior Brother could easily stumble into one!"

After sending the message, Dongfang Wu raised an eyebrow, looking at Chu Jiaojiao and the other.

"I've already sent a message to my Revered Master earlier. I believe he's already searching for us and will find this place soon."

"Let me kindly inform you, my Revered Master is a Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator."

Seeing the drastic change in their expressions, Dongfang Wu tugged at the corner of her mouth, hiding her urgency and feigning nonchalance. "I advise you to escape as quickly as possible. Otherwise..."

*Slap!*

A bright red handprint appeared on Dongfang Wu's face, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

Needless to say, it was Chu Jiaojiao who had struck.

She loved slapping people the most!

Dongfang Wu looked coldly at Chu Jiaojiao, a chill in her eyes that Chu Jiaojiao couldn't comprehend.

Chu Jiaojiao's voice was cold enough to freeze ice. "Threatening me? I'll kill you first!"

She gathered a ball of Devilish Qi in her hand.

"Chu Jiaojiao! Don't cause unnecessary trouble!" Kong Yishui hurriedly spoke up to stop her.

"We can still leave now in time. A Nascent Soul is not someone we can afford to offend..."

*Slap!*
