Fights Break Sphere: The Fire Rekindles

Chapter 12 Dispute
The lavender figure who was peeking from a distance quickly covered his mouth when he heard Xiao Yan's scream, and his eyes turned red instantly.

"This... Brother Xiao Yan practices like this every day." Although Xiao Xun'er had guessed a little, she only thought of using Dou Qi to train. Xiao Xun'er remembered that someone in the clan also trained like this when they were young. But others might not recognize the pale white flame attached to the Dou Qi, but how could she not recognize it!
That's the strange fire! Xiao Xun'er knew the horror of the strange fire better than anyone else. It was something that even Douhuang masters dared not touch. Thinking of this, Xun'er could no longer bear it and wanted to go out to stop it. She wanted to use her own methods to help Xiao Yan become stronger, instead of letting Xiao Yan undergo this training that was like torture. Even if it was torture, this punishment was too cruel.

Just as Xiao Xun'er was about to stand up, she felt a big hand holding down her shoulder. Xiao Xun'er was suddenly startled. She was so focused on Xiao Yan that she didn't even notice someone was around. Just as she was about to fight back, she found out that the person who attacked her was Xiao Zhan, the father of Xiao Yan's brother.

Xiao Zhan put his index finger to his lips, signaling her to be quiet. At this moment, Xiao Yan's screams came from the front again. Xiao Xun'er wanted to stand up again and go to stop him, but Xiao Zhan held her shoulders again.

Xiao Zhan's repeated obstruction finally triggered Xiao Xun'er's anger, and she wanted to fight back directly. But now she was not even a fighter, so how could she be Xiao Zhan's opponent? Even if she used secret techniques, it would take time, not to mention that this was Xiao Yan's father.

Seeing Xiao Xun'er getting angry, Xiao Zhan was slightly stunned, turned around and walked down the mountain, waving his hand to signal Xiao Xun'er to follow. Although Xiao Xun'er was extremely reluctant, she thought that he was Xiao Yan's father after all, and he loved Xiao Yan so much that he didn't try to stop him, so Xiao Xun'er had no choice but to follow Xiao Zhan to see what he had to say.

As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, Xiao Xun'er couldn't wait to ask, "Uncle Xiao, why did you stop me? Brother Xiao Yan's training is so hard, don't you feel bad for him?"

Seeing Xiao Xun'er questioning him as soon as he got off the mountain, Xiao Zhan smiled bitterly. How could he not feel sorry for his son who was beaten to a bloody mess? He knew Xiao Yan's endurance very well. He screamed like this, which showed how much pain he had endured. With moist eyes, he said, "Of course I feel sorry for Yan'er, but I also know that he is embarking on a path to become a strong man. This is his own choice, and we should not stop him."

"But there are many ways to become strong. It is not necessary to undergo such torture-like training. Brother Xiao Yan, follow me. I can also make you stronger." Xiao Xun'er turned around and wanted to stop her, but Xiao Zhan hurriedly stopped her.

Seeing Xiao Zhan trying to stop her again and again, Xiao Xun'er was completely furious. A golden flame flashed in her eyes, and her aura gradually became stronger. She said angrily, "Since you don't want to go, I will go! I have a better way to make Brother Xiao Yan stronger. If you stop me again, I will take action. Uncle Xiao, you should know that I have such strength."

Seeing that Xiao Xun'er cared about Xiao Yan more than he, as a father, and threatened him, Xiao Zhan gave a helpless bitter smile and had to use his trump card, saying: "How can you explain if you go up like this? Do you say that you saw it accidentally? You should know Yan'er's character. If he finds out that you are secretly following him, even if he doesn't say it on the surface, he will feel uncomfortable in his heart. Because in his heart, this is no different from betraying him. I know Yan'er's character. Although he usually laughs and doesn't care about anything, if you really touch his forbidden zone, he will eliminate you from his heart without hesitation."

After Xiao Zhan's reminder, Xiao Xun'er was suddenly shocked.

"If she really goes up to stop it, then Brother Xiao Yan..."

Thinking that Brother Xiao Yan would treat him like a stranger in the future, Xun'er quickly withdrew her aura and asked hastily, "Then are we just going to ignore it and let Brother Xiao Yan go on like this?"

"How did these two develop feelings for each other? Alas!" Seeing Xiao Xun'er getting angry because of Xiao Yan, then calming down in an instant because she was afraid that Xiao Yan would misunderstand her, Xiao Zhan felt a little distressed.

Shaking his head helplessly, Xiao Zhan said, "I can't bear it either. Yan'er has to endure such cruel training every day, so it depends on you!"

"Depend on me?" Xiao Xun'er was suddenly confused.

"Well, you can often look for Yan'er to spar with him or something. Wouldn't that way he would have less time for training? He would also suffer less." Xiao Zhan stroked his beard and said lightly.

"This is indeed a good idea." Xiao Xun'er was very happy to hear that Brother Xiao Yan could suffer less.

"But don't do it often. I feel that the old man should have discovered us, but he just didn't stop us. If we do this often, he will be unhappy, which will not be good." Xiao Zhan thought of the transparent old man before going down the mountain and glanced at him sideways.

"Who is that old man? Could he be Brother Xiao Yan's master?" Xun'er asked.

"That should be it! Let's just pretend that what happened today never happened, and never came here!" Xiao Zhan was very happy to know that his son had found a great master. The old man's eyes made him feel like he was on the edge of an abyss. Although Xiao Yan would suffer some hardships, it was not enough to have talent alone to become a strong man.

"Yes!" Xiao Xun'er agreed on the surface, but secretly said in her heart: "I hope you don't harm Brother Xiao Yan, otherwise..." The sun was shining brightly. Xiao Yan, who was beaten to death, was thrown into the wooden barrel filled with red liquid again, feeling the hot liquid eroding his skin. Xiao Yan was startled and sat up instantly. He formed seals with his hands, breathed in and out of his chest, and quickly entered the state of cultivation. Because it was useless to endure it by force, only by consuming the medicinal power contained in the liquid could the pain be relieved.

As Xiao Yan practiced, the red liquid in the barrel continued to evaporate, and groups of light red gas entered his body through Xiao Yan's mouth and nose. After entering his body, Xiao Yan refined it into strands of pure energy, part of which entered Xiao Yan's lower abdomen to enhance Xiao Yan's fighting spirit. The other part entered Xiao Yan's internal organs and bones and tendons to strengthen his body. The external medicine liquid continued to erode Xiao Yan's skin and muscles, helping him strengthen his external skin and flesh.

The red liquid prepared by Yao Lao was specially developed for Xiao Yan. Only Xiao Yan could use this red liquid. If anyone else used it, the violent medicinal power would directly destroy the person's tendons and veins.

"What a lucky little guy! With the help of that thing, plus the medicine I carefully prepared, I guarantee that your body strength will be no weaker than that of a Warcraft." Yao Lao said with emotion as he looked at Xiao Yan, whose whole body was wrapped in red gas.

It was getting close to evening. The sun, which had worked all day, stretched itself and slowly went down the mountain to rest. The afterglow dyed the mountaintop golden. The golden sunlight shone on Xiao Yan's skin, making him look like a golden bronze man.

The liquid in the barrel gradually faded, and the red gas surrounding Xiao Yan gradually disappeared. As the last trace of the medicinal power was consumed, only floating dead skin remained in the barrel, and of course there was a trace of light red, which was the blood flowing from Xiao Yan's body.

He suddenly opened his eyes, a red light flashed in his pupils, he slapped the wall of the barrel with both hands, kicked his legs, and leaped towards a big tree like a sharp sword. When he was about to arrive, he stretched out his right hand and punched the tree hard.

"boom!"

A fist-sized hole appeared on the trunk of the tree. Seeing the damage he had caused with just his physical strength, Xiao Yan nodded in satisfaction. He smiled and said, "My strength has increased a lot, and the fist mark is obviously deeper."

Big Tree: "Thank you and your family! This forest will be destroyed by you sooner or later."

"Haha, that's good! If you continue like this, you may really be able to practice Baji Beng to perfection, or even surpass it." Yao Lao said with a smile behind him.

"Isn't it true that the highest level of Baji Beng can only produce the eighth level of energy? Is it possible to produce more?" Xiao Yan asked doubtfully.

"Of course. Baji Beng has a relatively low dependence on fighting spirit. It all depends on physical strength. Baji Beng can only reach the eighth level because the physical strength is not enough. If the body is strong enough, it is very likely to reach the tenth level or even higher. At that time, it will be a true earth-level fighting skill, not comparable to it." Yao Lao stroked his beard and said lightly.

“But I can only produce the first level of energy now. I don’t even know when I can reach the eighth level, let alone higher levels.” Xiao Yan rolled his eyes.

"That hasn't been given to you yet. Originally, I only wanted you to master one level of bright energy and one level of dark energy. If it's any higher, your body won't be able to bear it and will be directly destroyed. However, with your current physical strength, it's no problem to reach two levels. Close your eyes and concentrate, and I'll give you the method of practicing the remaining energy of Baji Collapse!" Yao Lao said with a faint smile.

Yao Lao gently touched Xiao Yan's forehead with his finger, and Xiao Yan suddenly felt a large amount of information entering his brain.

Under the careful guidance of Yao Lao, Xiao Yan mastered the double-strength technique in a short while. Facing the other big tree in front of him, he circulated the fighting spirit in his body and slowly moved it towards the acupuncture points and meridians of Baji Beng.

Da Shu: "Don't come over here!"

"Baji collapse!"

With a bang, the tree was instantly pierced by the blow. He was panting slightly. Although the Eight Extreme Collapse did not consume much fighting energy, the two-level energy still consumed most of his fighting energy. His body was also slightly sore. It seemed that with his current physical strength, he could only use the second level.
