Chapter 253: Peak of Four-Star Dou Zun
The heavenly phenomenon lasted for three whole days before it slowly receded and disappeared. At the same time, the oppressive aura emanating from Yao Yan grew even more terrifying, causing the surrounding space to distort and crack. The purple-blue flames surged continuously, forming a massive dragon head illusion that roared at the heavens.
As the dragon's roar faded, Yao Yan slowly opened his tightly shut eyes, a surge of purple-blue flame rising in his pupils. His one-star Dou Zun aura suddenly skyrocketed.
It was like a roller coaster. The one-star Dou Zun aura lasted only for a moment before it leapt to two stars, then three stars... and finally, the momentum halted when it reached the peak of four-star Dou Zun.
The increase in Yao Yan's aura was jaw-dropping. Even Hun Miesheng, who stood beside him, couldn't help but doubt life for a moment. Though the Hun Clan had many secret methods, none could reach the level that Yao Yan had achieved, directly breaking through from nine-star Dou Zong to peak four-star Dou Zun!
This had exceeded Hun Miesheng's imagination!
"Peak of four-star Dou Zun... Not bad~" Yao Yan clenched his fists, feeling the surge of his Dou Qi cultivation, a satisfied smile appearing on his face. The Three Thousand Flame of Heaven, which had been accumulated for a thousand years, had truly provided an immense amount of energy, enough to make him content.
The only regret was that he hadn't stayed in the star domain. If he had consumed the star power accumulated by the Three Thousand Flame of Heaven over a thousand years, his advancement would not have been limited to this.
Even advancing several more levels would have been incredibly easy.
However, Yao Yan did not become arrogant. Real strength only comes when it is fully controlled. If he couldn't control it, how could he call it his strength? The rapid increase in power now was enough for him to feel satisfied. Any further explosive growth might be beyond his ability to perfectly control.
"Congratulations. To raise your strength to such a level in just a few months, even in the Hun Clan, it is quite rare," Hun Miesheng appeared in front of Yao Yan, his handsome face holding a faint smile as he spoke softly.
"Thank you, Hall Master!" Yao Yan looked at the visitor and cupped his hands.
Knowing the original story's plot, he naturally recognized the identity of the person in front of him. The Hall Master of the Hun Hall—who else could it be but Hun Miesheng? This person's strength had already reached the five-star Dou Sheng level and was not far from six-star Dou Sheng, placing him among the extremely powerful beings. Even within the Hun Clan, he held considerable influence.
"In less than a year, you have fully absorbed the Three Thousand Flame of Heaven. This talent is truly terrifying," Hun Miesheng gazed at Yao Yan, speaking with heartfelt admiration.
To perfectly absorb a Heavenly Flame, even a Dou Sheng-level expert wouldn't have absolute confidence. Let alone one as intelligent as the Three Thousand Flame of Heaven, whose essence fire was far more difficult to devour and refine than ordinary Heavenly Flames.
Yet, Yao Yan had absorbed it perfectly, even devouring its essence fire. It was truly terrifying!
"My cultivation method is somewhat special, unrelated to my talent," Yao Yan shook his head slightly, humbly replying. He then asked, "I wonder if my teacher has arrived. My teacher once told me that after I refined the Three Thousand Flame of Heaven, it would be time for me to return to the Hun Clan!"
"You have Hun Clan blood, and if you wish to return, you can do so at any time," Hun Miesheng smiled lightly.
Yao Yan nodded slightly, then took out the jade tablet Hun Xuzi had given him, activating it. In an instant, a vast surge of Hun power erupted from it, enveloped in pitch-black flames, transforming into a humanoid figure that exuded an indescribable pressure.
This oppressive feeling, which Yao Yan could not have sensed before, was now palpable.
"It seems everything is going smoothly," the figure of Hun Xuzi emerged, and he evaluated Yao Yan, clearly still paying attention to him.
"Your disciple has successfully subdued the Three Thousand Flame of Heaven, and I have now reached the peak of four-star Dou Zun!" Yao Yan cupped his hands in respect, softly reporting his situation to Hun Xuzi. As for Hun Miesheng, he didn't pay him any mind. After all, strength was everything, and Hun Xuzi's status in the Hun Clan surpassed even many Dou Shengs.
"It seems the compatibility with the Fire of Burning Judgment is quite high for you," Hun Xuzi's gaze flickered slightly as he spoke quietly.
Cultivation methods are also dependent on the individual, and different methods require different physiques. If the compatibility had been lower, Hun Xuzi didn't believe Yao Yan would have been able to evolve the Fire of Burning Judgment into a Celestial-level technique so smoothly.
Yao Yan did not comment. In fact, at his current level, he had a general understanding of the Fire of Burning Judgment. This technique was very unfriendly to beginners, but once it was successfully cultivated, the future would be nearly limitless. As long as one could obtain a powerful fire seed, the Fire of Burning Judgment's potential had no upper limit, and through the advancement of the technique, one's strength could grow exponentially.
This advantage was unmatched by any other technique.
"Just right, with your current strength, you can participate in the bloodline baptism of our clan," Hun Xuzi continued, his tone unmasked with satisfaction.
Yao Yan's eyes gleamed slightly. He had long been looking forward to the Hun Clan's baptism. Since Hun Xuzi had placed so much importance on it, the bloodline baptism would definitely be extraordinary, perhaps allowing his strength to grow further.
"Peak four-star Dou Zun strength... that's enough, as long as you don't encounter those few freaks," Hun Miesheng chuckled lightly.
"Since he is my disciple, naturally, he must take the lead..." Hun Xuzi's eyes gleamed with a faint light, then he turned to Hun Miesheng and spoke in a calm tone, "As there is still some time before the bloodline baptism, have him devour the souls of the strong beings captured by the Hun Hall and raise his Hun to the middle tier of the Celestial realm!"
Hun Miesheng's eyes flickered with black flames. He had some doubts whether Yao Yan could devour them, but Hun Xuzi's words extinguished that doubt. Since Hun Xuzi had said so, he clearly had confidence in Yao Yan.
"Once his Hun realm reaches the middle Celestial level, with the several Heavenly Flames he possesses, those few little ones in the Hun Clan will definitely not be his match!" Hun Xuzi looked at Yao Yan, speaking slowly.
"Thank you, Master!" Yao Yan had no intention of saying anything else, simply cupping his hands in gratitude.
Hun Xuzi nodded slightly, then looked at Hun Miesheng and spoke indifferently, "He's now in your hands. Ensure his Hun breaks through to the middle Celestial level as soon as possible!"
Damn!
Hun Miesheng cursed inwardly, but in the end, he didn't argue. He chuckled dryly and cupped his hands, "Rest assured, my lord, I will handle this properly. I won't let you down... With the young master's talent, breaking through to the middle Celestial level is no trouble at all!"
After finishing, he gave Yao Yan a smile with a hint of camaraderie.
Hun Xuzi nodded, and his figure disappeared from the spot, turning into a streak of black flame and merging into the jade tablet, leaving behind Yao Yan and Hun Miesheng, who exchanged awkward glances for a moment.
