Fights Break Sphere: The Fire Rekindles

Chapter 72 Extra Punishment Day

"If even you can't tell that man's strength, doesn't that mean he's at least a Dou Zong or even a Dou Zun?" Jia Xingtian said in surprise after hearing the answer given by Fa Ma.

"He shouldn't be a Dou Zong. Judging from his strength, he should be at least a Dou Zun!" Fa Ma said uncertainly.

Jia Xingtian was silent for a while, then asked again: "Old Pharaoh, you haven't told me the identity of that young man yet?"

"You are too cautious. Do you think that such an outstanding young man can be cultivated in our remote countryside? The young man just came to the Jia Ma Empire to gain experience. If he had not helped you to refine the elixir, he would have left the Jia Ma Empire directly this time." Fa Ma said with a smile. As an old actor over 200 years old, his acting skills can be called textbook level.

"Alas! It is true that I am overthinking! But for the safety of the Jia Ma Empire, I have to be careful. I hope Pharaoh will forgive me!" Jia Xingtian said apologetically. He also felt that in this remote place in the northwest continent, where resources are scarce, it is difficult for a genius like Xiao Yan to appear.

"Haha, you are guarding the safety of the entire Gama Empire, so it's right for you to be careful. However, with his talent and family background, he will look down on your remote place, so don't worry!" Fa Ma said with a smile.

"That's good! That's good!" After hearing Fa Ma's words, Jia Xingtian breathed a sigh of relief and acted as if all his doubts had disappeared. However, it was unknown whether his doubts had really disappeared.

"I came here just to inquire about the origins of that young brother. The real purpose is to ask him to help refine two longevity pills. I have to ask Pharaoh for help in this matter. Please tell that young brother. You also know that at our age, we may be buried at any time. It's okay for me, but if I die, I'm afraid that the entire Gama Empire will fall into war again, and the people will suffer. So please Pharaoh, say a few good words for me." Jia Xingtian knew that it was difficult to find out any information about Nie Feng, so he had to tell him another purpose of his visit.

"Haha, it's my duty to help you! After all, I, an old man, don't like war. However, Brother Nie Feng is from there after all. If you can't come up with anything good, don't blame me. His vision is not too low. If you don't spend a lot of money, he probably won't help you refine it." Fa Ma said with a smile.

"Of course! Although the Gama Empire is not rich, it is not too difficult to come up with some good things." Jia Xingtian said with a smile.

After Jia Xingtian finished speaking, he took out a storage ring from his arms, handed it to Fa Ma, and introduced: "Inside are the medicinal materials for six longevity pills, as well as the reward needed to refine these pills."

"You are willing to spend money!" After taking the ring, Fa Ma scanned it with his soul power and was excited by the things inside.

"There's nothing we can do! We old people are so old, we can die at any time. It wouldn't matter if I died, but the Gama Empire has not yet trained qualified guardians, and I'm worried." Jia Xingtian said with some melancholy.

"Alas! It is because of your protection that the Gama Empire has been able to gain a foothold in this northwestern continent over the years. It has not been easy for you." Fa Ma echoed.

"I hope the old man can hide in front of that young man and say a few good words for me. I'll take my leave first!" Jia Xingtian's goal had been achieved. He knew there was no point in staying any longer, so he could only say goodbye and leave.

Although Jia Xingtian was 100% sure that Xiao Yan was here, not to mention that he came here to ask for a favor, his identity as a Fa Ma alone would not allow him to act recklessly.

"Then I'm sorry I can't see you off." Fa Ma said with a smile.

After Jia Xingtian left, Fa Ma stayed outside for a while to confirm that Jia Xingtian had left before walking towards the secret room. When Fa Ma arrived at the secret room, he saw Xiao Yan looking at his collection of medicinal herbs, and immediately smiled and said, "Take them all if you like them!"

"That's so embarrassing!" Xiao Yan smiled, a little shy. However, these herbs were exactly what he needed, most of them were needed to refine third- and fourth-grade pills, and some of them were needed to refine the Three-Striped Green Spirit Pill and the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill, so Xiao Yan was naturally tempted.

"Look, your eyes are shining. Take them! These herbs are of little use to me. They are just leftover herbs from when others asked me to refine pills. It would be a waste to keep them here." Fa Ma said.

"Hehe! Then I won't be polite. But please take it when I'm about to leave!" Xiao Yan said happily.

"Okay!" Fa Ma nodded.

"By the way, has Jia Xingtian left?" Xiao Yan asked.

"Well, as soon as he came, he asked me about your identity, fearing that you would pose a threat to the Gama Empire. But I only told him that you are the apprentice of a mysterious and powerful man in Zhongzhou, and that you are also from Zhongzhou. But he may still have doubts about you and will inquire about your identity from other places." Fa Ma nodded and said.

"Thank you very much! It is impossible to expect someone like him to dispel all doubts. It is already very good to be able to do this." Xiao Yan thanked him.

"Is there any need for us to thank each other?" Fa Ma said indifferently.

"Indeed, there is no need! But you have been helping me since I came to the imperial capital, and I can't say anything in return. Although I don't have any good things on me now, you should need this thing." Xiao Yan smiled and took out a scroll from the ring and handed it to Fa Ma.

Fa Ma was about to refuse, but when he felt the soul fluctuations on the scroll and scanned it with his soul power, he could no longer say no.

Because he really needed this thing, he had been stuck at the peak of the fifth-grade alchemist for so many years without any progress, and could only slowly explore on his own. Although in a few years, he might be able to become a sixth-grade alchemist, it would be difficult to make any progress in the future.

"This is the experience of alchemy written by my teacher. I have read it all. You have already become my disciple, so you are also qualified to read this." After Xiao Yan finished the introduction, he handed the scroll to Fa Ma.

Fa Ma respectfully took the scroll from Xiao Yan, and after receiving it, he knelt down again facing the east, shouting, "Thank you, teacher!"

Seeing Fama being so serious, Xiao Yan felt speechless. Why did he kneel down at every turn?
"This is the reward and herbs given by Jia Xingtian. Take a look first. If you think it's too little, I'll ask him for more after you refine the pills. I'm going to study the experience of refining medicine written by the teacher. This secret room is one of my retreat places. It has everything you need and no one will disturb you. You can stay here to practice or help them refine pills. There is a mechanism on the left side of the entrance to the secret room. You should have seen it when you came. If you need anything, you can press the mechanism and I will know." After Fa Ma handed the ring to Xiao Yan, he immediately ran out of the secret room with the scroll in a hurry. Looking at his appearance, he didn't look like a person who was about to be buried. He was just a lively child.
