Battle Through the Heavens: Even without the Burning Flame Technique, I, Xiao Yan, still became an e

"Are you also interested in healing and saving lives?"

Little Fairy Doctor couldn't help but ask about the conditions Xiao Yan had set.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just interested in the profession of alchemist, but you can't get started without someone to teach you, so I plan to learn pharmacology and medicine first, as a way to lay a foundation."

Xiao Yan explained that, after all, alchemists are the noblest profession in the world, and since he possesses fire-attribute Dou Qi, there was no reason not to give it a try.

"Is that so...? Maybe you really can do it."

Little Fairy Doctor paused for a moment. She longed to be an alchemist, but unfortunately, her battle qi attribute made her unable to refine medicine.

"Okay, I promise you, but I'll teach you after we leave here."

"Of course, you put these herbs away first, I'll take a look at those boxes."

After tossing the Ice Spirit Flame Grass to Little Fairy Doctor, Xiao Yan walked to the stone table and examined the three iron boxes.

"I'm warning you, don't even think about sneaking anything out of the box while I'm collecting herbs!"

It's normal that Fairy Doctor can't completely trust Xiao Yan and is somewhat wary of him.

"Okay, I'll open the box once you've finished on your end, alright?"

Xiao Yan then ignored her. The boxes on the table all had an old-fashioned keyhole, which looked like they needed a key to open.

Xiao Yan did consider forcibly opening it, but he was worried about accidentally damaging the things inside.

However, there wasn't much in this stone chamber. Apart from a skeleton, three iron boxes, there were only these potted herbs and a pile of gold coins on the ground.

The gold coins looked like they were worth hundreds of thousands, but Xiao Yan really didn't care about that amount of money.

Xiao Yan shifted his attention from the iron box and looked at the withered bones.

He walked up to the skeleton, bowed to the bowing skeleton, and thanked this senior.

As he looked down, he inadvertently discovered that on the skeleton's right arm bone was a key ring with three black iron keys on it.

"Luckily, no decryption is needed."

Xiao Yan reached for the keychain, but because he had gripped the skeleton too tightly and because the skeleton was extremely fragile due to its age, he actually managed to tear off his arm bone.

Xiao Yan smiled awkwardly and tried to put his hand bone back, but found that the weight was a bit off.

He picked up the hand bone and examined it closely, discovering that the inside of the arm bone was hollow, and inside was a small animal skin scroll!

At this moment, Fairy Doctor was collecting herbs. Xiao Yan quickly took out the scroll and stuffed it into his storage ring. Then, he pretended that nothing had happened and put his arm bone back in place.

Meanwhile, Little Fairy Doctor had almost finished collecting the medicinal herbs.

"You haven't been secretly hiding anything from me, have you?" Little Fairy Doctor slowly walked over, looking at Xiao Yan with a suspicious gaze.

"No way, I've already found the key, I'm just waiting for you." Xiao Yan said, shaking the keychain on his wrist.

"Hmph, that's more like it. Let's hurry up and open the box to see what's inside."

Little Fairy Doctor looked expectantly at the three iron boxes on the table.

Xiao Yan nodded, took out the first key to open the first iron box, but the key didn't match at all. He tried the second key, but it still didn't match.

"Oh dear, you're so clumsy! You got three keys wrong twice!"

Little Fairy Doctor couldn't help but criticize Xiao Yan's actions.

Xiao Yan also looked helpless, who knew his face could be so dark: "We can't fail to open it in the last round, can we?"

The third key was inserted, and as the latch popped out, the metal box was finally opened.

"Quick, look inside!"

Little Fairy Doctor was excited, with a look of joy on her face.

However, Xiao Yan took two steps back, gathered his fighting spirit in his hand, and pushed out with a palm, actually knocking the lid of the iron box away.

"It's always better to be careful."

Seeing Xiao Yan's appearance, Little Fairy Doctor was speechless; this guy was just too cautious.

Little Fairy Doctor stepped forward and took the contents of the box—a scroll.

"The Poison Sutra! It's actually the Poison Sutra!"

With a hint of excitement in her voice, Xiao Yan grabbed the scroll, on which were written four words: Seven-Colored Poison Scripture.

"The Seven-Colored Poison Manual was originally a record of how to concoct poisons."

"You can't take this from me. Because of my elemental attributes, I can't be an alchemist. I'm just a weak woman, and I can only rely on these things."

At this point, a hint of sadness appeared on Little Fairy Doctor's face.

"Here you go, I'm not interested in this thing." After saying that, Xiao Yan handed the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture back to Little Fairy Doctor.

"Thanks."

Little Fairy Doctor beamed with delight, completely captivated by the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture.

"If I don't give it to you, are you going to use poison powder on me again? Last time it was white, this time it's green. Did you secretly mix something even more potent to deal with me when you came out at night?"

After Xiao Yan saw through her disguise, Little Fairy Doctor awkwardly stretched out her hand, revealing a piece of oiled paper with a green powder wrapped on it.

"You can't blame me for this. You're way better than me. If I hadn't been careful, you would have taken advantage of me long ago!"

However, Xiao Yan didn't blame her. What she said was indeed the truth: "Don't worry, although I'm not a great philanthropist, I'm not so bad as to casually harm my companions. We agreed to split it in half, so it's split in half."

"Thanks."

Little Fairy Doctor felt somewhat ashamed and carefully wrapped up the green powder, putting it away.

"Alright, let's start the second one."

The second box was opened, and this time Xiao Yan was less guarded and took out the contents directly.

"Another scroll?"

Upon opening it, Xiao Yan discovered that a pair of wings were being drawn on it using special techniques.

"Advanced Xuan-rank Battle Skill: Eagle Wings!"

It's actually the rarest flying combat technique!

Xiao Yan was immediately drawn to the black scroll. He knew that only those who reached the Dou Wang level could transform their Dou Qi into wings and soar through the sky.

The existence of flight combat skills allows the younger generation who have not yet reached the level of Dou Wang to fly ahead of time.

In terms of value, flight combat skills are far superior to any other type of combat skill of the same level!

"The Seven-Colored Poison Scripture is yours now, so this flying combat technique should be mine."

Compared to the Poison Scripture, this is what Xiao Yan desires most. If he could fly with his strength as a Great Dou Master, he could cross the Monster Mountain Range much faster.

"Okay, okay, half for each of us, hurry up and open the third box."

Little Fairy Doctor rolled her eyes at Xiao Yan, knowing she couldn't win against him.

Then Xiao Yan inserted the key into the third box.

Just then, a series of footsteps suddenly came from outside the stone chamber.

Xiao Yan immediately became alert: "There are people outside, at least dozens of them!"

"Impossible, only the two of us know about this!"

Xiao Yan then looked at Little Fairy Doctor, whose brows furrowed at his gaze: "Are you doubting me? If I were going to do this, wouldn't it have been better to just reveal my location from the start?"

"They've arrived."

As the torches outside lit up, a familiar figure slowly walked out.

"Haha, Little Fairy Doctor, it seems the information I received was true. We really owe you a lot today, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to find such a good place."

Little Fairy Doctor gritted her teeth, recognizing the person: "Mu Li!"
