Chapter 235: Flame Mantra Evolved
In the dark s.p.a.ce of Xiao Yan’s conscience, a drowsy mind slowly floated. In this dark black environment, it appeared that there was no concept of time. The mind wandered around as though it was a homeless, lonely soul, appearing extremely desolate.
At a certain moment, an eye-catching green-colored flame suddenly curled upward and surfaced within the dark black s.p.a.ce. The light emitted by the green-colored flame expelled all the pitch-black darkness around it. The flame moved slightly and a moment later, transformed into a green-colored lotus seat.
After the green-colored lotus seat was formed, it suddenly shot through the dark s.p.a.ce. In the blink of an eye, it arrived beside the drowsy mind. A warm glow extended out and wrapped the mind within it…
Once the mind was completely wrapped, the green-colored lotus seat suddenly began to flash past at high speed and the darkness began to swiftly retreat and shrink. A while later, a little white light appeared at the end of the darkness. The lotus seat carried the groggy mind and charged out of this boundaryless s.p.a.ce of one’s conscience.
Under a huge tree in the mountain forest, Xiao Yan leaned again the tree trunk with his eyes tightly closed. His slightly pale face appeared to be swiftly recovering its rosy color.
Beside him, Yao Lao, who had been attentively taking care of him, sighed in relief when he saw Xiao Yan’s change.
After a moment pa.s.sed in this manner, Xiao Yan’s eyelids trembled slightly and he finally began the slow struggle to open his eyes. Immediately, a large amount of piercing sunlight s.h.i.+ning down from the sky once again caused him to shrink his eyes slightly.
“Have you woken up?” Yao Lao’s faint laughter sounded by the side of his ear.
Lifting his head slightly and seeing the smiling Yao Lao by his side, Xiao Yan also smiled and nodded. His palm gently rubbed against his face, with some hesitation he asked, “That, has the evolution of the Qi Method succeeded?”
“Ke ke, take a look for yourself.” Yao Lao did not answer him directly as he laughed.
Xiao Yan nodded his head and crossed his legs which were still sore. He calmed his mind and swiftly entered into the training posture.
His mind gradually sank into his body. Instantly, the c.u.mbersome to the point of terrifying map of Qi Paths once again surfaced in his heart.
Xiao Yan’s mind quickly pa.s.sed through a few Qi Paths before he swiftly arrived at the top of the vortex in his lower abdomen. His mind swept pa.s.sed it vaguely. He took in a deep breath of non-existent air. At this moment, an excited feeling that left him weak filled his entire body.
The Dou Qi vortex that appeared under the observation of his mind’s eye was more s.p.a.cious with an accommodating capacity of over ten times the amount before. The dark green-colored Dou Qi flowing in it was obviously of a quality that was far from what the purple-colored Dou Qi could compare with. It might have been because he had completely digested the ‘Green Lotus Core Flame’, but above the dark green-colored Dou Qi, there were some green-colored flames. With the adhesion of these flames, the fighting strength of the green-colored Dou Qi was clearly more frightening.
In the Dou Qi continent, the difference in the Qi Method was dependent on a few factors. The first was the accommodating capacity of the vortex holding Dou Qi. Consider two people of the same level, if one of them were to practice a Huang Cla.s.s Qi Method while the other practiced a Xuan Cla.s.s Qi Method, then the one practicing the Xuan Cla.s.s Qi Method would definitely have a far greater battle endurance compared to the former.
The second factor was the difference in the Dou Qi quality. Under the a.s.sumption that both parties had the same level, if the one practicing the Xuan Cla.s.s Qi Method had to use one unit of Dou Qi, then the one practicing Huang Cla.s.s Qi Method would have to use ten times or even more than that amount of Dou Qi in order to obtain the same result as the former.
The third factor was the effectiveness in absorbing the natural energy and refining it into Dou Qi during training. This was similar to the previous point. If two people wanted to absorb the same amount of Dou Qi energy in the air, the one who practiced the Xuan Cla.s.s Qi Method may only require ten minutes while the Huang Cla.s.s Qi Method would require a hundred minutes…
The fourth factor was that in battle, the person practicing the Huang Cla.s.s Qi Method would never be able to drive the Dou Qi as quickly or smoothly as the person practicing a Xuan Cla.s.s Qi Method.
By summarizing the various reasons above, it clearly showed the reason for why countless of people on the Dou Qi continent would view a good Qi Method as the most important thing over any and all other things. The higher the cla.s.s of the Qi Method one practices, the larger the amount of benefits that it would bring. Therefore, in order to obtain those high cla.s.s Qi Methods, countless numbers of strong people would come wave after wave. Sometimes, they clearly knew that they were like moths jumping into the fire, yet they were still willing to be swallowed by the flame…
Xiao Yan was at a loss as he watched the vortex that was as s.p.a.cious as a small lake. A long while later, he finally gradually began to recover. His mind moved gently and a thread of green-colored Dou Qi immediately flowed out from within the vortex. It then swiftly flowed along some Qi Paths. Following the start of the flow of the Dou Qi, Xiao Yan could clearly feel that a strong force in his body was rising to a peak that he had never been able to achieve in the past.
As his mind focused intently on the route that the Dou Qi flowed, Xiao Yan realized that the Qi Method route after the evolution had clearly become more c.u.mbersome than before. Strangely, however, the time needed for the Qi Method to complete one circulation had become increasingly shorter despite the route becoming more complex. Moreover, after a circulation had completed, the strong force in his body would be ready to go. At any moment it was available for its owner to drive it and violently unleash that gus.h.i.+ng energy…
“Have I really succeeded?” Feeling that his body was filled with energy, Xiao Yan inhaled a deep breath, because he felt that it was a little unbelievable. Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes, raised his head and eyed Yao Lao by the side who was full of smiles. He then parted his mouth and muttered, “Have I succeeded?”
“Yes…” Seeing Xiao Yan’s somewhat comical expression, Yao Lao smiled and nodded his head. He sighed with great emotion before patting Xiao Yan’s shoulder gently with his palm and said with a smile, “Congratulations. You have successfully proven that this ‘Flame Mantra’ can really swallow the ‘Heavenly Flame’! In other words, its potential is limitless…”
