Asura Continent

Lu Yang sneered and said, "Do you really think I can't cast the Flame Technique?"

Flame Technique, also known as Fireball Technique. Even though it was the most common fire type magic, it was a magic that alchemists had to master. Simply put, if the pill refiner was not a fire spirit root cultivator or was unable to cultivate the flame technique, it would be impossible for him to concoct pills. No matter what kind of pill it was to be refined, it would require flames. If ordinary fire could not reach an extremely high temperature, how could one refine pills?

Of course, in theory, this was the case. However, there were two ways to become an apothecary which were extremely difficult if one's cultivation didn't meet the requirements. First, find the location of a Sky Fire, the so-called Sky Fire can produce fire from the ground. Not only is the temperature high, it can't harm a cultivator, but this kind of place is very rare, even if it exists, it might not be found.

Alchemists had to search for a lot of herbs before they started refining pills. They had to search all over the mountain ranges, and sometimes they even had to travel tens of thousands of miles in order to find the herbs they needed. If one were to use the Heaven Flame to refine pills, it would be extremely inconvenient for an alchemist. This was why cultivators with fire spiritual roots would not be engaged in the profession of alchemy.

Secondly, there was another possibility for him to become an alchemist. That was to first cultivate before concocting pills. When a cultivator reaches the Core Formation stage, strong Pill Fire will be released from their dantian. The temperature of the Pill Fire is extremely high, and it is even several times higher than the fireball cast by the Flame Technique. This way, he would have sufficient temperature to refine medicinal pills.

In the same way, even though Pill Fire's temperature was high, the amount of spiritual energy consumed in its usage was unimaginably high. It was several times higher than flame magic. Most pills required a few hours to concoct. The third grade pills required by a Core Formation cultivator even required several days and nights to concoct. For such a long period of time, ordinary cultivators would not be able to withstand the temperature of the cauldron if they only relied on the Pill Fire.

This was the reason why there were so few apothecaries of this caliber. In the entire continent, there were less than five of them.

The cultivators of the Sun family naturally knew how easy pill refining was, and it was even more difficult to become a powerful alchemist. Even their Sun family only had a few third-grade alchemists, and this was something they got from the Chen family, otherwise, their Sun family would only have one alchemist. The Sun family's cultivators naturally did not believe that Lu Yang could use the Flame Technique. The corner of their mouths formed a faint smile, as if they were reading the news.

Sun Qingming laughed and said, "Lu Yang, if you are an alchemist, I will be your father. You might not know that I toyed with your mother all those years ago …"

Lu Yang's expression changed. He hated people who called him mother the most. He hated them even more than he hated them. Lu Yang did not want to be the first one to kill Sun Qingming, but after hearing this, he coldly snorted and grabbed Sun Qingming's soul in his hands and said in a dense voice, "You're courting death. Wait a moment, I'll let you see if I can use the Flame Technique …"

Sun Qingming said disdainfully, "Show me what you've got." "You better refine me, or else don't talk big here …"

Inside the medicine cauldron, Sun Qinglong could not help but say, "Yes! "Refine us all together!"

Lu Yang faced the cauldron and cast a spell. With a flash of light, the lid opened and Sun Qinglong's soul emerged. He grabbed Sun Qinglong's soul and threw him to the side. Then, he threw Sun Qingming's soul into the furnace and quickly closed the lid. After finishing all of this, Lu Yang let out a low growl and began to form a series of incantations towards the bottom of the cauldron.

From the look of it, it was indeed a flame technique. Sun Qinglong laughed and said: "Lu Yang, stop pretending. Even if you pretend to be more like it, we won't believe that you can … …"

Sun Qingming couldn't believe what he had just said. The fire beneath the cauldron flickered and a fireball appeared out of thin air, releasing a dazzling fire. The temperature of the surrounding area instantly rose to about one hundred degrees, and the medicinal cauldron became completely red. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before it reached the high temperature needed to refine a soul.

"Flame Technique!"

Sun Qinglong widened his eyes and said, "How is this possible? How could you cast a fire spell?"

Inside the cauldron, Sun Qingming also felt the high temperature. As the temperature inside the cauldron grew higher and higher, his soul could no longer bear the heat and began to emit "chi chi" sounds before rolling his eyes. Feeling the intense pain, Sun Qingming could not hold on any longer. He felt like his soul was about to shatter. He shouted loudly, "Stop! Lu Yang, I believe that you are an alchemist. I beg you, please let me go!"

"Let you go?" Lu Yang laughed coldly and said coldly, "Do you think that's possible?"

Hearing this, Sun Qingming's heart skipped a beat. He was filled with regret. Why did he have to say something like that just now? If he had to choose again, Sun Qingming wouldn't have mocked and ridiculed Lu Yang even if he was beaten to death. However, fate did not have a choice. Under the high temperature of three hundred degrees, his consciousness became increasingly blurry, until it finally became a mess and his soul was scattered.

Sun Qingming died just like that. His soul was completely refined, and he would never be able to reincarnate.

Only then did the surrounding cultivators understand that Lu Yang had the ability to kill them. Furthermore, he could cause them to wish they were dead and lose their souls.

For a moment, the Sun family's cultivator's soul was trembling. The way he looked at Lu Yang was as if he was looking at an executioner.

Sun Qinglong sucked in a breath of cold air. He chose to give in and said: "Lu Yang, what do you want to ask me?"

"Listen, I want to know what happened to my father before he died. Why did his soul become like this?" Lu Yang clenched his fist and released a powerful killing intent as he said, "You guys are the best at playing tricks with me, otherwise, I'll put your souls into the Six Paths Cauldron and make you live a life worse than death."

Sun Qinglong pondered a bit and didn't answer. He said, "Lu Yang, you can ask me something else. This is a secret of the Lu family. I can't tell it to anyone."

"Is that so? You guys don't want to talk about it either? " Lu Yang looked at the rest of the Sun family cultivators. All of them lowered their heads, not daring to look Lu Yang in the eyes.

Lu Yang gave a cold laugh and said, "Very good, I don't believe you won't tell me." He waved his right hand and the soul of one of the cultivators from the Sun family was thrown into the cauldron.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Miserable screams rang out unceasingly. Listening to the screams, their hearts palpitated with fear.

The souls of the cultivators of the Sun family were trembling, but no one spoke. They would rather die than betray their clan.

Lu Yang didn't believe it. He threw the soul of another Sun family disciple into the cauldron, but no one said anything. Other than Sun Qinglong, everyone else was screaming in pain. The result was the same. Lu Yang felt that he had failed. He thought that he would be able to get the secret he wanted, but he only got this result. He said, "I didn't know that the cultivators of the Sun family were so protective of the family."

Sun Qinglong knew that he was dead for sure, so he let go and said: "Kill us all! We will not sell out our family. "

Since he couldn't figure it out, Lu Yang didn't want them to live either. He waved his hand and cast a spell on the cauldron. The flame increased and the temperature inside the cauldron quickly increased. In the blink of an eye, it reached more than three hundred degrees. The souls of the few cultivators of the Sun family inside the cauldron screamed a few times before their souls dissipated.

Lu Yang grabbed Sun Qinglong's soul. Just as he was about to throw him into the cauldron, he suddenly thought of something. A magic treasure that would terrify cultivators. He slapped the storage pouch on his waist and a black needle appeared between his fingers. The needle was exceptionally sharp, and when the rays of light shined on it, it emitted a cold light.

After Sun Qinglong saw the black needle, his expression changed and he shouted, "Soul Extinguishing Needle …"

"It seems like you recognize this thing. You should know its use!" Lu Yang also guessed the purpose of this treasure, but he wasn't sure how powerful it was, so he gave it a try and said, "I'll have the Soul Extinguisher target pay you first, let you feel the effects of the Soul Extinguisher Needle, then I'll kill you …"

"No, no, don't do this to me …" Sun Qinglong's body was shaking violently. It could even be said that he was terrified.

Lu Yang held the Soul Extinguishing Needle in his hand and said, "They're all dead, and now you're the only one left. Even if you tell me something, no one will betray you. Furthermore, I just want to know the cause of my father's death, not to avenge him. With my current cultivation, do you think that I can kill my way towards the Sun family? "

After saying that, Sun Qinglong glanced at the Soul Extinguishing Needle. He clenched his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll tell you. You promised to let me die quickly."

"It's a deal." Lu Yang said seriously.

Sun Qinglong took a deep breath and said, "After your father was captured, Fourth Brother Sun Qingwei tortured him. Then he was ordered by the ancestor to kill him." After killing your father, we took out his soul and used a secret technique to split his soul into ten pieces and seal them in ten soul locking jade. Then, we would like to know where you are by using the bloodline soul chasing technique. "

"Bloodline Soul Pursuer." Lu Yang's brows tightened as a thought suddenly appeared in his mind. He asked, "You tell me about this sacred art's cultivation art."

Sun Qinglong's heart skipped a beat and he asked, "What are you doing?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to train for a while." Lu Yang said indifferently as if he really didn't care.

Sun Qinglong also felt that even if Lu Yang obtained this cultivation art, he wouldn't dare to go to the Sun family to kill others. Thus, he spoke of it.

In the following time, Lu Yang asked what he wanted to know before throwing Sun Qinglong's soul into the cauldron and refining it. After killing everyone, Lu Yang came to the place where the Iron Wall Copper Ape was. This guy was resting after eating his fill. Seeing that Lu Yang had only opened his eyes for a moment, he continued sleeping.

Lu Yang took out some of the Sun family cultivators' blood essence, sealed it in the jade gourd, and then left.

As for Sun Qingbo, he had managed to escape with his life. He flew toward the Sun family at an extremely fast speed and arrived at their home in six hours.

After landing on the ground, Sun Qingbo went straight to the main hall. When he arrived, he saw Sun Qingwei walking out of the main hall. He quickly said, "Fourth brother …"

Sun Qingwei was also surprised to see his cousin, "Little Bo, why are you back? Did you catch Lu Yang?"

"Capture my ass! Lu Yang ran away!" Sun Qingbo felt a lingering fear as he thought about what had just happened. If he had been any slower, he would have died here.

Hearing this, Sun Qingwei's face changed. He angrily shouted, "You guys actually let Lu Yang escape? Where are the rest of them?"

"Brother Guang and the others, they …" Sun Qingbo's eyes were filled with tears as he sobbed.

Sun Qingwei suddenly had a bad feeling. He grabbed Wang Lin's shoulder and asked, "What happened to them?"

"All dead, all killed by Lu Yang." Sun Qingbo cried out in pain. He knew that only by doing this would he be able to gain sympathy and survive.

Sun Qingwei was stunned. He couldn't believe it and said, "How is that possible?" "You are all in the Core Bearing Stage, and yet you were killed by a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator?"
