”Senior, I would like to request a systematic inheritance of alchemy knowledge from Tier 1 to Tier 7, along with commonly used pill formulas,” Wei Yang spoke.

”Oh?” Yao Lao stroked his white beard, glanced at Wei Yang, and said indifferently, ”I do possess a complete inheritance of alchemy from Tier 1 to Tier 7, including many common pill formulas. However... its value is not low.”

If Wei Yang could offer something satisfactory, it was not impossible to trade.

”Senior, the Green Lotus Core Flame’s lotus seat is a treasure,” Wei Yang reminded him. ”I only traded the Heavenly Flame itself, but I never said I would include the lotus seat. I merely lent it to you temporarily.”

The lotus seat of the Green Lotus Core Flame was a rare and precious item. It could automatically gather fire-attribute energy from the world, purifying and refining it.

For fire-attribute cultivators, meditating atop it could not only accelerate their cultivation but also help calm their minds. Moreover, it provided additional assistance in refining the Green Lotus Core Flame.

For Wei Yang, the lotus seat might not be particularly significant anymore, but for Xiao Yan, it was a priceless treasure.

”Brat, you’re too stingy. No matter how rare that lotus seat is, it’s merely a Tier 6 treasure. I even gave you a Heaven Grade technique, yet you’re still quibbling over a mere Tier 6 lotus seat?” Yao Lao huffed in frustration.

”No matter what, it’s still a rare Tier 6 treasure, and I’m poor,” Wei Yang spread his hands helplessly.

”Hmph! Fine, I won’t argue with a kid. The lotus seat counts as one part of the trade,” Yao Lao snorted.

Wei Yang smiled upon hearing this. He pondered for a moment before flipping his hand and retrieving a jade bottle, which he tossed to Yao Lao.

”What’s this?” Yao Lao caught the jade bottle and asked.

”Two companion lotus seeds of the Green Lotus Core Flame. These are rare Tier 6 treasures. There are likely only a few in the entire continent. They not only contain vast and pure energy but also grant the user a slight affinity with the wood attribute. I have personally tested this effect.”

Wei Yang continued, ”Furthermore, refining the lotus seeds increases affinity with the Green Lotus Core Flame, making it slightly easier to absorb and control. There were originally eleven lotus seeds. I used six before, and now I am giving two to you. I have very few left.”

Yao Lao opened the jade bottle, poured out the two lotus seeds, examined them briefly, and then nodded before storing them away. ”This also counts as part of the trade.”

He did not need Wei Yang’s explanation to understand the value of the lotus seeds.

In the future, when Xiao Yan absorbed them, not only would his Dou Qi increase, but his chances of successfully refining the Green Lotus Core Flame would also improve.

When refining a Heavenly Flame, even the slightest increase in success rate was incredibly valuable.

”However, this is still far from enough,” Yao Lao stated.

Wei Yang continued, ”I have information regarding the Ice Spirit Cold Fountain.”

”Oh?” Yao Lao was instantly intrigued. The Ice Spirit Cold Fountain was an excellent auxiliary item for absorbing a Heavenly Flame. ”Tell me more.”

”In the eastern border of the empire, within the Tagore Desert, resides the Snake-Person Clan. Their queen, Medusa, possesses the Ice Spirit Cold Fountain.”

Recalling the original novel, Wei Yang remembered the small pool of Ice Spirit Cold Fountain that Medusa used during her evolution. He elaborated, ”You can ask around about the Snake-Person Clan if you need details. I won’t go into that.”

”But I will remind you, Senior, that Queen Medusa is searching for a Heavenly Flame herself. Although she is a Peak Dou Huang, she is not seeking to refine it but rather to use it for her evolution.”

”If you plan carefully, you may not only weaken the power of the Green Lotus Core Flame but also obtain the Ice Spirit Cold Fountain from Medusa.”

”Additionally, due to discrimination from humans, the Snake-Person Clan has accumulated many precious medicinal ingredients, but they lack skilled alchemists to refine them into pills. Senior, you might be able to leverage this situation. A high-rank alchemist visiting them would surely be welcomed.”

Yao Lao nodded, his eyes gleaming at the thought of the Snake-Person Clan’s medicinal treasure trove.

However, he looked at Wei Yang with a knowing smile. ”Brat Wei, this is still not enough. You’re far from meeting the price.”

Wei Yang racked his brain, gritted his teeth, and finally said, ”I’ll add another piece of Heavenly Flame information!”

Yao Lao’s eyes widened, and a brilliant light flickered within them. With a wave of his hand—

Whoosh!

A vast collection of books, notes, jade slips, and scrolls floated in the air before Wei Yang.

”These were obtained by chance and originate from a Peak Tier 7 Alchemist.”

”This inheritance not only contains the alchemist’s lifelong knowledge and experiences in alchemy but also includes a vast collection of commonly used pill formulas,” Yao Lao declared.

Wei Yang released his soul power, spreading it out carefully to scan through the collection of books and scrolls.

He found that they were indeed as Yao Lao had described.

However—

Wei Yang smiled and said, ”Senior, I would like to request one more pill formula.”

Yao Lao raised an eyebrow. ”Which one?”

”The formula for the Blood Lotus Pill,” Wei Yang replied with a smile.

The Blood Lotus Pill was a Tier 5 pill that could form a layer of blood scabs inside and outside the body, protecting it from the damage of flames.

Yao Lao gave Wei Yang a deep look before waving his hand. A scroll appeared, floating in front of Wei Yang.

Wei Yang swept his soul power over the formula to confirm its authenticity. Then, with a wave of his hand—

Whoosh!

The large collection of books and scrolls before him was instantly stored away.

”Brat Wei, the information on the Heavenly Flame?” Yao Lao pressed.

”Ranked fourteenth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking—Fallen Heart Flame!” Wei Yang revealed.

Yao Lao’s eyes instantly lit up, a trace of excitement flashing within them as he looked at Wei Yang with great anticipation.

This flame was undoubtedly highly suitable for Xiao Yan to refine in the future, as it could significantly accelerate his growth.

The Fallen Heart Flame was also known as the ”Training Cheat Code.”

Once refined, the cultivator’s Dou Qi would be continuously tempered by the Heart Flame, meaning that even while eating or sleeping, they would be in a perpetual state of automatic cultivation. Thus, it was dubbed the ”Training Cheat Code.”

”Where is it?” Yao Lao quickly asked.

”In the Black-Corner Region, beneath the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower of Jia Nan Academy’s Inner Academy, within the magma world at the bottom,” Wei Yang stated in detail.

”This Fallen Heart Flame is already mature and possesses considerable intelligence, though it is filled with violent tendencies. Due to its long-term imprisonment by Jia Nan Academy, it harbors deep hatred toward them.”

”Its strength is roughly at the mid-tier Dou Zong level. Currently, it appears dormant, but in reality, it is biding its time, accumulating strength. Perhaps within a few years, it will break free from its seal. When that happens, Jia Nan Academy will surely suffer its wrath. In the ensuing chaos, there may be an opportunity to subdue it.”

”So Jia Nan Academy really does have a Heavenly Flame!” Yao Lao murmured to himself.

Previously, he had only suspected its existence but was unable to confirm it.

Now, not only did Wei Yang provide concrete confirmation, but he also delivered an incredibly detailed intelligence report on the Fallen Heart Flame.

This information was invaluable to Yao Lao!

Yao Lao turned to Wei Yang with a peculiar gaze. ”Brat Wei, you are quite extraordinary!”

”To possess such detailed knowledge about Jia Nan Academy’s Inner Academy, and even grasp the precise strength of its Heavenly Flame...”

Wei Yang merely smiled calmly in response. ”Actually, I’m rather curious as well. Senior, you seem to be quite obsessed with Heavenly Flames. Isn’t the Green Lotus Core Flame enough for Brother Xiao Yan?”

The two exchanged glances and then smiled knowingly at each other.

Everyone had their own secrets—it was best not to pry too deeply.

Yao Lao narrowed his eyes slightly.

His perception of Wei Yang was becoming increasingly remarkable and significant.

Having already traded away the Green Lotus Core Flame, Wei Yang should have kept the information about the Fallen Heart Flame a secret, plotting in the shadows and waiting for the right moment to act.

When the Fallen Heart Flame finally broke free, he could have seized the opportunity and taken the upper hand.

However, just for the sake of a single peak seventh-tier alchemist’s inheritance, Wei Yang handed over this crucial intelligence without hesitation.

This was truly incomprehensible.
