A sixteen-year-old Four-Star Dou Shi… this talent surpassed even his own.
With such a frightening aptitude for cultivating battle techniques, Xiao Jian's rise was inevitable.
Reaching Dou Huang was a matter of certainty...breaking into Dou Zong was only a matter of time.
A prodigy like him was worth investing in at any cost.
And if Xiao Jian truly found a way to help him recover his Dou Huang strength, that would be a priceless favor. After years of hiding, he was tired of solitude.
He'd purposely avoided contacting the Mittel family because revealing his sealed condition would only harm them.
As long as the world remained uncertain about his fate, no one dared trouble the Mittel family. Such was the deterrent power of a Dou Huang.
Now that the family was thriving, led well by Great Elder Teng Shan, Hai Bodong wouldn't mind returning once he regained his cultivation.
He might even witness the birth of a future powerhouse.
With a sharp crack, both ice dragons shattered at once.
Hai Bodong pressed down his emotions and looked at Xiao Jian. "Not bad. Your talent is terrifying.
Originally, I wanted you to start searching for the Sand Mandala earlier, but I've changed my mind. Stay a few more days. I'll teach you everything I can.
When it comes to ice, no one in the Jia Ma Empire has more experience than me."
Xiao Jian cupped his hands respectfully. "Then I'll thank you in advance, Old Hai."
Two weeks later, Xiao Jian was unceremoniously kicked out of Hai Bodong's map shop. His aura was visibly stronger.
Five-Star Dou Shi.
"This old man…" Xiao Jian muttered as he glanced at the storage ring filled with desert survival supplies.
Within two weeks, Hai Bodong had realized he had nothing left to teach him.
And after learning that Xiao Jian had broken through yet another star in less than a month, Hai Bodong nearly collapsed from shock and threw him out immediately.
Facing the boundless desert, Xiao Jian shook his head.
He found a secluded spot, removed his white robe and sea-blue armor, stored them away, and continued forward with only shorts on.
The wind quickly erased the footprints behind him.
He felt somewhat uncomfortable. Without fire- or earth-attribute cultivation methods, refining the desert's fiery environmental energy.....even with the strange flame...was far less efficient than using his high-rank ice and wind techniques.
The desert lacked both wind and ice energy, slowing his progress even further.
His recent breakthrough had come entirely from medicinal ingredients. But he would remain in the desert for months.
No matter how large his stock was, he couldn't burn through medicines endlessly.
He rummaged through his storage ring, searching for something suitable. He vaguely remembered having a fire technique.
The Tagor Desert proved even harsher than expected.
The burning sand felt like stepping on heated iron beads, making his muscles twitch.
Sand-filled winds whipped against his face, forcing him to maintain a thin layer of Dou Qi just to protect his skin.
Eventually, he pulled out a red scroll: a high-tier profound-rank Fire Origin Art....the legacy given to him by the senior who had passed him the strange flame in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
He found no earth techniques, and only one matching fire battle technique....Fiery Blaze. Still, something was better than nothing.
Under the blinding sun, Xiao Jian walked and studied the scroll.
From time to time, he stabbed into the sand with his spear, slaying low-rank beasts hidden below. None could escape his soul perception.
Outside the desert city, a dark shadow descended from the sky. Xiao Yan, in his two-tier alchemist robe, landed with exasperation written on his face.
His training in the Magical Beast Mountain Range had been progressing well....under Yao Lao's guidance, he had even broken through to Dou Shi. But then fate intervened.
While gathering herbs, he encountered a third-rank magical beast and attempted to test his limits with Flame-Splitting Wave Ruler. The attack nearly crippled the beast....but the beast turned out to be the Amethyst Winged Lion King's child.
Enraged, the Lion King attacked, and if not for Yao Lao's sudden appearance and overwhelming flame, Xiao Yan would have died.
He did gain a small benefit....his Flame Mantra absorbed a trace of purple flame....but cultivation in the Beast Range became impossible afterward.
