92. Special Secret Technique
92. Special Secret Technique
Xiao Yan was also taken aback by Liang Mengying's words, and then asked in confusion, "Sect Leader Liang, what's going on?"
Liang Mengying put down the teapot, bowed, and said, "Please forgive my abruptness, but does Mr. Xiao Yan possess a different kind of fire?"
Xiao Yan nodded subconsciously. At the Ten Thousand Beasts Gathering, he had revealed almost all his trump cards, and quite a few people knew that he possessed two different kinds of strange fire. Chu Qun was, after all, a genius disciple trained by Minghua Tower, so it was impossible for him not to recognize that he possessed strange fire.
Liang Mengying's eyes, as clear as autumn water, revealed an undisguised surprise. When Xiao Yan saw the joy in Liang Mengying's eyes, his heart rate suddenly changed.
"Be careful, she will affect your physical condition!" the old doctor's warning rang out.
With Yao Lao's reminder, Xiao Yan recalled the first time he met Liang Mengying, when he felt that something was wrong with him.
"Teacher, is she plotting something else?"
"It doesn't seem like it yet, let's see!"
Seeing Xiao Yan's dazed state, Liang Mengying activated her fighting spirit and touched him, intending to help him break free from his reverie. Of course, she didn't know that Xiao Yan was extremely powerful and had already escaped his trance.
"Excuse me, Mr. Xiao Yan, are you aware of the reason why Minghua Tower is so strict about the appearance of its disciples?"
"I would like to hear the details."
Liang Mengying's eyes also dimmed somewhat: "The core cultivation method of Minghua Tower emphasizes smoothness and perfection, and innate completeness. Therefore, those with outstanding appearances can achieve twice the results with half the effort, but those with unattractive appearances may even suffer a backlash from the cultivation method."
Even though Yao Lao had mentioned it beforehand, Xiao Yan was still somewhat shocked. All he could say was that the continent was full of wonders.
"That's why Minghua Tower has never been able to achieve the top position in the Northwest Region. While it's important that Chu Qun secured a place in the top ten this time, the most important thing is that we found you, sir!"
"I?"
"Indeed, Mr. Xiao Yan, you may not know this, but my cultivation technique has reached near perfection, yet there is one step I cannot take. Because of the excessive innate Yin energy within me, my late master instructed me that this innate Yin energy cannot be fully resolved and can only be dispelled by using extremely Yang and strong substances. I have searched for many such rare and precious treasures, but I can only suppress it, not eradicate it. Therefore, when I am emotionally agitated, my emotions unconsciously affect those around me, just like just now."
"The Strange Flame is a naturally occurring wonder, the most suitable thing to eliminate any hidden dangers for me. Therefore, Mengying humbly requests that Mr. Xiao Yan lend his assistance. In the future, Mengying and Minghualou will forever remember your kindness! Of course, Minghualou will also provide something that will satisfy you!"
Upon hearing Liang Mengying's words, Xiao Yan exchanged a few words with Yao Lao. Given Xiao Yan's relationship with Chu Qun, there was really no need for him to refuse.
However, Liang Mengying mistakenly took Xiao Yan's silence as his attitude, and then tapped her storage ring to take out an item.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, please look at this!"
A palm-sized piece of black jade was placed on the table by Liang Mengying. Xiao Yan frowned when he saw it, as his soul power could not penetrate it.
"Burning Flame Valley!" Elder Yao exclaimed, his voice tinged with shock.
"Has Mr. Xiao Yan ever heard of the name Burning Flame Valley?" Liang Mengying asked slowly.
"I just heard about it," Xiao Yan thought to himself, but still shook his head.
"The Burning Flame Valley is a super power in the Central Plains, far surpassing the leading power in the Northwest Region. This jade slip was obtained by chance by an ancestor of Minghua Tower. It is one of the treasures of the Burning Flame Valley, the secret technique Heavenly Fire Three Transformations!"
As soon as Liang Mengying finished speaking, Elder Yao exclaimed in admiration, "I didn't expect it to be this! Things from Burning Flame Valley are rarely passed on to outsiders!"
Liang Mengying continued, "This item is not suitable for the people of Minghua Tower, but it would be extremely valuable to Mr. Xiao Yan. As long as a cultivator possesses a strange flame, such as beast fire, it can stimulate the body's potential with unique effects, achieving a short-term increase in strength! Of course, the stronger the flame, the greater the increase."
Liang Mengying didn't say anything more, but Xiao Yan understood perfectly: the stronger the flame, the better. Wasn't she referring to the Red Lotus Karmic Flame within his body?
Xiao Yan was also somewhat tempted after hearing this, and then asked Yao Lao in his mind, "Teacher, which is stronger, this or the miraculous secret technique that Xun'er used to kill Liu Xi back then?"
After a moment's thought, the old doctor said, "If you only rely on one kind of strange fire, it's probably still not as good as the secret technique used by your little girlfriend. But if you possess multiple strange fires, hehe..."
After Yao Lao finished speaking, Xiao Yan couldn't help but sigh. This thing was really suitable for him. He already had a different kind of fire, and with the Sea Heart Flame, it was a perfect match!
He then said, "Sect Leader Liang, Xiao Yan and Chu Qun are friends, so he shouldn't ask for any reward. However, the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations is of great significance to Xiao Yan. If things succeed, Xiao Yan will shamelessly accept it."
Liang Mengying smiled slightly and then pushed the jade piece in front of Xiao Yan. "Mr. Xiao Yan has done a great favor for Minghua Tower. Whether we succeed or not, this item will be given to you. If you encounter anyone from Burning Flame Valley in the future, just say that this item was given to you by Shen Jing of Minghua Tower, and you will not have any trouble."
Seeing Liang Mengying's attitude, Xiao Yan knew that he had to do his best today.
However, Xiao Yan was not too worried. After all, he possessed a strange fire, and there were very few cold and yin substances in the world that could restrain it. Even Yao Lao had not seen many of them.
Liang Mengying then laid out several jade bottles and said to Xiao Yan, "I have a long history of internal coldness in my body, and it may not be easy to clear it away. Here are some pills for you to prepare for later, sir."
Xiao Yan picked it up and saw that the pills in the bottle were all of superior quality, indicating that Liang Mengying had indeed spared no expense.
Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Xiao Yan will definitely do his best, Sect Master can rest assured!"
"I will force the chilling energy to my back shortly, then I request Mr. Xiao Yan's assistance!"
After Xiao Yan nodded, Liang Mengying sat cross-legged and began to circulate her energy.
As the person in charge of Minghua Tower, Liang Mengying's cultivation level had reached the level of an eight-star Dou Zong. Every move she made exuded a fierce Dou Qi. Xiao Yan once again marveled at how, although Minghua Tower's cultivation methods were demanding, they were indeed formidable.
"Teacher, can I do it myself later?"
"Hmm, try it yourself first. If it doesn't work, I'll step in. After all, Liang Mengying is a high-level Dou Zong expert, and the Yin-cold energy within her body shouldn't be underestimated!"
In fact, Xiao Yan is more suitable than Yao Lao for dispelling the Yin and Cold Qi, because the properties of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire might not be truly effective. On the contrary, Xiao Yan's Red Lotus Karmic Fire is exceptionally suitable. And after Xiao Yan completely absorbed the Red Lotus Karmic Fire as his source fire, it became quite troublesome for Yao Lao to activate it.
Of course, everything had to be done safely, which is why Xiao Yan specifically asked Yao Lao about it.
Half an hour later, Liang Mengying's entire back was frozen, and a chilling aura kept leaking out, causing the temperature in the room to drop continuously.
"I have suppressed the chilling aura; please, sir, make your move!"
