Fight to break the sky

Chapter 430 Settlement

"Crunch."

A wooden door was slowly pushed open, and a ray of sunlight spread along the crack of the door, finally forming a slender line of light on the ground.

As the wooden door was fully opened, the light expanded rapidly, and soon several figures of different lengths stretched by the sunlight also walked in. The leading old man glanced at the wide small pavilion and said with a smile: "Xiao Yan, from now on The residence of the four of you is here.”

"Four people?"

Hearing this, Hu Jia, who was following behind, couldn't help but be startled, and then said in astonishment: "Elder Su, do you want two girls, Xun'er and me, to live with their two grown men?"

"Haha, girl Hujia, this pavilion is so big, there are a lot of rooms, and we don't let you sleep on the same bed. Why are you so anxious?" Elder Su shook his head with a smile, looked at the four of them, and said, "By the way, Do you still have a team member?"

"Uh." When Elder Su asked this, Xiao Yan hesitated and shrugged, but he didn't know how to answer.

"Run away. Seeing the strength of the Black Evil Team, they abandoned us." Hu Jia spread her hands and sneered. She didn't have Xiao Yan's scruples and showed no mercy to Bai Shan when she spoke. Obviously, Bai Shan's The behavior of abandoning her companions and running away alone made her extremely disdainful.

"Run away? What a short-sighted person." Elder Su was also startled, then shook his head and said with a faint smile.

"From now on, the four of you will belong to the Inner Court. Let me remind you that in this Inner Court, unless you are extremely powerful, it is not easy for you to get along alone. Because of the environment, the people in the Inner Court Those old students are also dividing their respective areas of influence, and you will probably meet these things soon." Elder Su said thoughtfully.

"There are still these things in the inner courtyard? Don't you ban them?" Hu Jia frowned slightly and asked.

"Haha, why ban it? This kind of competitiveness is what our inner court needs. If you want not to be bullied, you have to work hard to improve your own strength. Otherwise, there is no need to talk about it. The strong will always be respected. The main theme of this world is that we don't want the inner courtyard to become a carefree ivory tower, because in this kind of environment, truly strong people cannot emerge." Elder Su said calmly.

Hearing Elder Su's explanation, Hu Jia could only curl her lips. Xiao Yan and Wu Hao nodded in agreement. They have experienced real training and know very well what kind of environment can give birth. A real strong man.

"So, the reason why I let you live together is actually to let you form a team. During the hunting competition, you must have understood how powerful a team can be in combat, right?" Elder Su smiled and said: " And starting from today, I hope that the four of you will be a team that will face all difficulties together and never give up. If you can do this, then life in this inner courtyard will be much easier. No matter what, the power of a person cannot be compared to that of a team, right?"

"I don't care. I have no objection to Xiao Yan's strength." Wu Hao hesitated for a moment, nodded slightly, and said calmly.

Xun'er chuckled lightly. Naturally, she would not object if she could be with Xiao Yan.

"Oh, okay, although I don't want to admit it, I do want to feel more secure when I am with this guy." Hu Jia spread his hands and nodded helplessly.

"You are relying on me."

Seeing the behavior of the three of them, Xiao Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly. However, despite the expression on his face, he had a strange feeling in his heart. He had been practicing alone for the past three years. Perhaps due to his temperament, he He is used to being single and facing difficulties, but now that Wu Hao and the other three have handed over the command of the team to him, it is undoubtedly a kind of trust and recognition for him. This feeling is something Xiao Yan has never experienced when he was alone before. .

"Haha, it's best if you can do this and that." Seeing the four of them forming a team without any gaps, Elder Su nodded with satisfaction and waved: "Okay, it's getting late, you guys can take care of yourself. Pack up the house and rest for the night. Starting tomorrow, you can take a look around in the inner courtyard as you like. I believe you won’t be disappointed here.”

"Aren't there any training courses?" Hearing this, Hu Jia asked hurriedly.

"The inner courtyard doesn't need that kind of thing. As long as you have enough "fire energy", you can enter the "Tianfen Qi Refining Tower" and practice there. It is more effective than any course. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, The academy will collectively organize students to enter the "Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower" once a week. If we talk about courses, then this should count."

Elder Su chuckled and said: "In addition, there are "fighting skills hall", "gongfa pavilion" and other places in the inner courtyard. If you want to obtain skills or fighting skills, you can go there and have a look. Of course, these It must also be exchanged for enough "fire energy". Compared with the outer courtyard, the inner courtyard is actually more free.

"If you feel that "fire energy" is not enough and your hands are itchy, you can go to the arena to earn "fire energy". Of course, the premise is that you must have enough strength, otherwise, you will lose everything."

Xiao Yan and the others nodded slightly to express their understanding.

"If there is no problem, you can rest. If anything happens, you can come to me." After waving to the four people, Elder Su turned and walked out the door, and finally disappeared from the sight of Xiao Yan and others.

Watching Elder Su leave, Xiao Yan clapped his hands and smiled at Xun'er and the others: "Please clean up the room. This may be our long-term base in the future."

"Yes." Xun'er and the other three nodded with a smile, and immediately dispersed, each looking for a room.

At night, the silver moon hangs high in the sky, and the faint moonlight shines from the sky, covering the entire huge basin in the moonlight.

In a quiet house, Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the bed, forming cultivation seals with his hands. As he breathed, wisps of energy visible to the naked eye came out of the space. Finally, following his breath, a steady stream of energy flowed out. Drill into the body

Next to Xiao Yan, a colorful snake was hovering in the air. Its small body was twisting slightly in a strange rhythm. As its body twisted, the surrounding space continued to fluctuate. , a stream of energy that was more than ten times thicker than Xiao Yan's, surged out, and immediately poured into the little snake's body. What's weird is that this small body swallowed such a huge energy, but it was There was no movement at all. It looked like a few pieces of gravel had been thrown into a bottomless pit, without causing any ripples.

The practice lasted for about an hour, and the free energy gradually slowed down. Xiao Yan's eyelashes trembled slightly. After a while, he opened his eyes and exhaled a mouthful of turbid air held in his chest.

"I finally recovered. The consumption of this Buddha's Furious Fire Lotus was too great. But after nearly a week of fighting in the forest, the benefits are not small." Xiao Yan murmured in a low voice. At this time, his originally pale face , has returned to ruddy color again, a pair of eyes, as if wrapped in a layer of warm jade in the darkness, quite strange.

Shortly after Xiao Yan finished his training, the Colorful Sky-Swallowing Python also finished its night of training and hissed at Xiao Yan. Seeing this, the latter shook his head helplessly and had to take out a bottle of companion food from the ring. A few drops of Purple Crystal Source entered its mouth, and then it waggled its tail leisurely and ran into Xiao Yan's sleeve robe.

"This greedy little guy." Touching the sky-swallowing python wrapped around his arm, Xiao Yan gave a bitter smile. Just as he was about to speak, the dark ring on his finger suddenly trembled. Immediately, Yao Lao's illusory figure appeared. Slowly floated out.

"Teacher? How about it? Have you detected the Fallen Heart Flame?" Seeing Yao Lao appear, Xiao Yan's spirit suddenly perked up and he asked in a low voice.

“That’s not true”

Yao Lao smiled, glanced around, looked at Xiao Yan's disappointed look, and said with a low smile: "But it's not all without gain. After you entered the inner courtyard, I also faintly felt a strange aura. , but this inner courtyard is the core of Canaan College and there are many powerful people, so I don’t dare to explore it too carefully.”

"Strange breath?" Xiao Yan was slightly startled and said in surprise: "But it has something to do with the strange fire?"

"It should be true. There may be something you need in this inner courtyard." Yao Lao pondered for a while, nodded, and said: "According to my detection, the place where the strange aura emanates seems to be in the inner courtyard. Beizhizuo, if you have time tomorrow, you can go there and take a look, maybe you can find some clues."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded hurriedly, as long as there were clues. What he was most afraid of was that he had tried his best to enter the inner courtyard, but in the end he could not get any information related to the strange fire.

"In this inner courtyard, you have to rely on yourself for many things. If I take action, I'm afraid someone will find out." Yao Lao sighed.

"Well, haha, didn't the teacher say that I relied too much on you before, but now this environment is not harmful to me." Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"If you think about it this way, it's naturally good to be in the inner courtyard. You don't have to worry about the mysterious "Soul Palace" tracking you. Therefore, here, you can safely improve your strength." He nodded happily, and Yao Said the old man.

Mentioning the mysterious "Soul Palace", Xiao Yan's heart sank slightly. Even strong men like Yao Lao were afraid of this strange force. It was really hard to imagine how terrifying its power was.

"Well, don't worry, teacher."

Seeing Xiao Yan nodding, Yao Lao swayed and turned into a shadow again and hid in the ring.

"It seems that we can only quickly find the second kind of strange fire, and then help the teacher refine the body to accommodate the soul as soon as possible. Otherwise, the "soul palace" will always be a poisonous snake hidden in the dark, making it difficult for people to guard against." Looking at the medicine The old one disappeared, and Xiao Yan slowly tapped the back of his hand with his fingers. After a while, he took a long breath and thought in his heart.
