A mere inheritance of a Peak Tier 7 Alchemist?

Yes.

In Yao Lao’s eyes, how could the inheritance of a mere Peak Tier 7 Alchemist, along with some commonly used pill recipes, possibly compare to the Fallen Heart Flame?

The value difference was like heaven and earth.

Even just intelligence regarding the Fallen Heart Flame was priceless.

Heavenly Flames, the spiritual treasures of heaven and earth—each one was a treasure countless people dreamed of obtaining.

Moreover, their numbers were extremely limited in this world.

How many alchemists were there across the entire continent?

And how many Heavenly Flames?

One could count them with their eyes closed.

Not to mention, even some fire-attribute cultivators who weren’t alchemists had their eyes on Heavenly Flames.

This only worsened the situation—many wolves, little meat.

Using the inheritance of a mere Peak Tier 7 Alchemist to exchange for detailed intelligence and information on a Heavenly Flame?

Yao Lao felt that if such intelligence existed, he’d gladly take a dozen more copies!

Now, looking back at Wei Yang—

Yao Lao truly couldn’t comprehend it.

Trading away the Green Lotus Core Flame in exchange for a Heaven Grade Technique—this was understandable.

But the Fallen Heart Flame?

For the mere inheritance of a Peak Tier 7 Alchemist?

That was the biggest joke of all!

Did he think his strength wasn’t enough to take the Fallen Heart Flame from the Inner Academy of Jia Nan Academy?

That was possible.

After all, aside from the strength of Jia Nan Academy’s Inner Academy, the Fallen Heart Flame itself had enough power to rival a mid-tier Dou Zong.

And how many more years until the Fallen Heart Flame fully broke free?

Wei Yang seemed like he didn’t have enough time to grow strong enough to fight for it.

This reasoning was barely acceptable.

But to so easily give up the chance to seize a Heavenly Flame, even when he had the advantage—Yao Lao truly found it hard to understand.

After all, it was a Heavenly Flame!

And not just any Heavenly Flame—it ranked 14th on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, the so-called cheat code for cultivation, the Fallen Heart Flame!

If it were anyone else, wouldn’t they do everything in their power to seize it, even if there was only the slightest chance?

Unless...!

He didn’t even care about the Fallen Heart Flame.

He had an even better choice!

At this thought, Yao Lao’s pupils shrank.

He looked at Wei Yang—not just in shock, but in a hint of fear.

Damn it!

How many had he already obtained?!

The confirmed Green Lotus Core Flame,

The suspected Ghostly Poison Flame,

The verified existence of the Fallen Heart Flame,

And now, he had an even better option?!

That’s a Heavenly Flame!

Did he think it was some roadside wildflower?

One after another...

There had to be a limit to this madness!

This wasn’t just treating the Dou Qi Continent as his personal backyard—

Even the son of the heavens wouldn’t be this outrageous!

A legendary Child of Great Fortune?

Yao Lao kept overthinking, feeling an increasing sense of horror.

...

Meanwhile—

Wei Yang, having obtained the system inheritance of a Peak Tier 7 Alchemist, along with several commonly used pill recipes, was quite satisfied.

With this inheritance, his path in alchemy would become much smoother.

It was like boarding a fast track to Peak Tier 7 Alchemist.

Wei Yang’s soul talent needed no further explanation—it was already at the Late Mortal Realm.

What he lacked was merely a systematic inheritance.

Now, with this inheritance, he could avoid many unnecessary detours in the future.

A Peak Tier 7 Alchemist required only a Peak Mortal Realm Soul, and Wei Yang was not far from this step.

As for Tier 8—that was an entirely different level.

It required a Spirit Realm Soul.

Because Tier 8 pills needed an alchemist to imbue them with spirituality, only those with a Spirit Realm Soul could achieve it.

Even on the Dou Qi Continent, Tier 8 Alchemists were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns—there were extremely few in existence.

Thus, even a Peak Tier 7 Alchemist held an extremely high status on the continent.

As for the Fallen Heart Flame?

This was merely an instance of using information asymmetry to gain what he needed.

Wei Yang had lost nothing at all.

These pieces of intelligence only seemed valuable now—cashing them in three to four years in advance.

By the time Xiao Yan arrived at Jia Nan Academy and entered the Inner Academy, this intelligence wouldn’t necessarily be completely worthless, but it would be close to it.

”Senior, I would like to request another deal—a profound Fire Control Technique.” Wei Yang made his demand once again.

Yao Lao took a deep breath, forcing himself to suppress the chaotic thoughts in his mind. He locked eyes with Wei Yang, his gaze heavy. After mentally preparing himself, he finally asked, ”A profound Fire Control Technique? I have some. How profound do you want it?”

”At the very least, one comparable in power to a Low-Level Earth Grade Dou Technique,” Wei Yang replied.

Yao Lao’s gaze grew even more solemn. He slowly spoke, ”That is not cheap.”

A high-level Fire Control Technique was considered a forbidden secret among alchemists, an exclusive and closely guarded art.

The Peak Tier 7 Alchemist inheritance that Wei Yang had just obtained did not include a Fire Control Technique. Perhaps it originally did, but Yao Lao had deliberately left it out.

Because a Fire Control Technique comparable to a Low-Level Earth Grade Dou Technique?

Its value was no less than a Mid-Level Earth Grade Dou Technique, possibly even greater.

After all, such a technique not only allowed for precise control over flames, but also served as a powerful offensive method.

Wei Yang nodded. ”I am well aware of its value.” Then, he raised a single finger. ”One piece of intelligence regarding a Heavenly Flame.”

Yao Lao’s eyes bulged. His mouth opened slightly, but he was at a loss for words.

As expected!

Yao Lao groaned internally. Another Heavenly Flame!

Again?! Damn it!

He felt completely numb at this point.

Without a word, Yao Lao flipped his hand, took out a fiery red scroll, and tossed it to Wei Yang.

”Nine Dragons Fire Control Technique!”

”Mid-Level Earth Grade!”

”This was... something I acquired by chance back in the day when someone asked me to refine—cough, I mean, when I happened to come across it.”

”The creator of this Fire Control Technique was a high-ranking figure of a major faction in Central Plains.”

”This technique is also linked to a Heavenly Flame—the creator spent years studying that flame, ultimately developing this complementary Fire Control Technique!”

Upon hearing this, Wei Yang already had a rough guess in his mind.

Nine Dragon Lightning Flame!

And that so-called major faction? It had to be Burning Flame Valley.

Wei Yang took the scroll, opened it, and sent his soul power into it.

Instantly, a vast flood of information surged into his mind.

”Nine Dragons Fire Control Technique, Mid-Level Earth Grade. Created after years of studying our valley’s inherited flame—the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame... It consists of nine stages.

At the first stage, one must condense a single fire dragon, ensuring that its form and spirit are lifelike and brimming with spirituality to be considered proficient...

Until the ninth stage is achieved, at which point nine fire dragons emerge simultaneously—both offensive and defensive—their power truly astonishing...

If used in conjunction with the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame, its power can rival a Quasi-Heaven Grade Dou Technique...”

After thoroughly reading the contents, Wei Yang slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath. A hint of satisfaction and awe flickered in his gaze.

As expected.

The Nine Dragons Fire Control Technique was indeed related to the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame!

And the one who created it? It had to be a high-ranking figure from Burning Flame Valley.

Wei Yang had not only obtained an advanced Fire Control Technique but also gained an additional offensive method.

Once fully mastered, nine fire dragons could be summoned simultaneously, making it an extremely powerful Mid-Level Earth Grade Dou Technique!

Both offensive and defensive!

As for the claim that if used with Nine Dragon Lightning Flame, its power could rival a Quasi-Heaven Grade Dou Technique? Forget it.

A Mid-Level Earth Grade technique was already more than satisfying.

In the future, when Wei Yang refined a Heavenly Flame, using this technique in conjunction with it should at least allow him to unleash High Earth Grade power.

That was already impressive enough.

After all, a High-Level Earth Grade Dou Technique—where could you just steal one from?

Yao Lao watched as Wei Yang opened his eyes. ”Are you satisfied?” he asked.

Wei Yang grinned, flipping his hand to store away the Fire Control Technique. He nodded. ”Satisfied.”

”Then—” Yao Lao looked at Wei Yang expectantly.

Although Wei Yang’s constant bombardment had somewhat raised Yao Lao’s threshold for surprise, making him less frantic than before, he was still extremely eager.

After all, it was a Heavenly Flame!

Deep in Wei Yang’s eyes, a faint, well-hidden amusement flashed—but Yao Lao didn’t notice.

Then, Wei Yang spoke slowly and deliberately.

”This Heavenly Flame is in the hands of a Peak Tier 6 Alchemist... Hmm, well, he could barely be considered a Tier 7 Alchemist as well.”

”Because, on rare lucky occasions, he can actually successfully refine a Tier 7 pill.”

”Moreover, his own strength is Peak Dou Huang. With a Heavenly Flame in his possession, he can even hold his own against an ordinary Low-tier Dou Zong without falling behind.”

”And, due to his status as an Alchemist, his influence is quite significant. So, obtaining this Heavenly Flame won’t be easy. In a way, I kind of screwed you over, Senior.” Wei Yang’s face showed a look of apology.

”If Senior is dissatisfied, just consider this as me owing you a favor.”
