BTTH Adding Points To Become Stronger

The power of a Dou Venerate is far beyond that of a Dou Ancestor. Therefore, the sudden appearance of an unfamiliar Dou Venerate aura in Burning Flame Valley immediately alerted the valley.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Figures emerged from various concealed places, their faces showing a wary expression as they headed towards Lin Xiu's residence.

"Don't approach yet."

Tang Zhen spoke in a low voice, stopping everyone.

From their time together, he felt that Lin Xiu did not harbor ill intentions. Since Lin Xiu dared to do this in Burning Flame Valley, it might, in some sense, be out of trust in the valley.

At this moment, rashly approaching and disturbing Lin Xiu's matter could potentially make the relationship between both parties tense.

"Valley Master, this aura is still faint, indicating that it is in the recovery phase. We have enough time to stop it now."

An elder frowned, believing that any factor that could cause turmoil in Burning Flame Valley should be nipped in the bud.

However, Tang Zhen insisted on observing the situation first.

"I've observed carefully; Lin Xiu definitely does not have Dou Venerate strength. Now he's somehow creating a Dou Venerate. What is the reason behind this? Could it be related to the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame?"

Tang Zhen muttered to himself, his eyes filled with confusion. He was well aware of the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame's long-standing legacy in Burning Flame Valley and its specific effects.

Could he have created a Dou Venerate out of thin air?

Tang Huo'er thought, then immediately shook her head, dismissing this somewhat absurd idea from her mind.

The aura did not last long. As all the power retracted back into the room, a hearty laugh emerged from within.

"I, Venerable Tian Huo, am back!"

The voice echoed through Burning Flame Valley, and everyone looked at each other, seemingly unfamiliar with the name.

Soon, the door opened, and Lin Xiu along with another unfamiliar man walked out.

"Valley Master Tang?"

Glancing around, Lin Xiu was startled by the dense crowd surrounding him.

"Brother Lin, who is this person?"

Tang Zhen looked at the man beside Lin Xiu with some apprehension; the man's strength seemed to be around 2 Star Dou Venerate.

"It's a long story. Valley Master Tang, please rest assured, Mr. Yao and I have no hostility towards Burning Flame Valley."

As long as Lin Xiu wasn't foolish, he wouldn't reveal his revival of Yao Tian Huo in front of so many people.

Because, in this world, while there are methods to merge the Soul and body to bring someone back to life, such methods generally do not last long.

For example, Han Feng was forced by the Hall of Souls to merge his Soul into a new body.

He was indeed resurrected, but this method was entirely different from Yao Tian Huo's approach.

Yao Tian Huo's method involves a complete fusion of Soul and body.

"I trust you, Brother Lin."

Tang Zhen nodded, dismissing the others and inviting Lin Xiu and Yao Tian Huo to the main hall.

Once there, he couldn't contain his curiosity and asked if it was related to the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame.

Lin Xiu shook his head and explained that his method required at least the mastery of three Heavenly Flames, which was something a single Heavenly Flame could not achieve.

Tang Zhen was startled and decided not to pursue the matter further.

Each Heavenly Flame is extremely dangerous, and mastering three simultaneously is akin to playing with fire and burning oneself, which is very perilous.

At least he didn't have that confidence himself.

"Valley Master Tang, I will need to borrow the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame for a while longer. I will return it to you after my meeting at the Four Directions Pavilion."

With Yao Tian Huo backing him, Lin Xiu's request was straightforward and clear, without any circumlocution.

"Well..."

Hearing this, Tang Zhen hesitated, glancing several times at Yao Tian Huo, seemingly evaluating the credibility of Lin Xiu's words.

While in Burning Flame Valley, it was still manageable as it was his own territory.

However, once outside, where the sky is high and birds fly freely, it becomes a real test of one's integrity.

After all, the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame is the twelfth-ranked Heavenly Flame and is extremely valuable.

But now things are different from before. Previously, Lin Xiu was a Dou Ancestor, and Tang Zhen could easily handle him with a thought. Now, with a Dou Venerate by his side, it wouldn't be wise to tear things apart recklessly.

At that moment, a red figure walked into the main hall.

"Father."

Tang Huo'er first looked at Tang Zhen, then turned her gaze to Lin Xiu. "Lin Xiu, it's not impossible for you to take the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame with you, but there is one condition."

"What condition?" Lin Xiu asked.

"I want to stay by your side until you return it."

Tang Huo'er smiled gently.

"Huo'er, don't be ridiculous."

Tang Zhen immediately intervened, feeling that this risk was even greater. What if something unexpected happened?

He needed to oversee Burning Flame Valley and couldn't provide personal protection for his daughter.

"I don't mind, as long as Valley Master Tang agrees."

Lin Xiu was taken aback by this request but had no real concerns. After all, he never intended to keep the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame permanently.

The reason for borrowing it was because he needed it to revive Venerable Tian Huo and to help Yao Chen refine a body.

"Alright, it's settled."

Tang Huo'er raised her eyebrows and agreed before her father could speak.

After Lin Xiu and Yao Tian Huo left, she shrank back under her father's scrutinizing gaze.

"You're being reckless! It's better for you to stay in the valley and focus on your cultivation. If you go outside and something unexpected happens, how can I protect you in time?"

Tang Zhen's face was serious and displeased.

"It will be fine. Since I was injured, I've been staying in the valley. I just want to go out and see the world."

Tang Huo'er shook her hand, "And aren't you worried at all about the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame being lent out?"

Tang Zhen fell silent. After a moment, he took out a jade token. "Keep this safe. If you encounter danger, crush it immediately and hide. I will come to you as quickly as possible."

Instantly, Tang Huo'er smiled happily.

...

After leaving the main hall, Lin Xiu had just reached his residence when he saw a woman in blue standing at the door.

"Xin Lan."

Lin Xiu called out to her.

"Elder Lin, I have something I'd like to discuss with you. Is it convenient?"

Xin Lan fidgeted with the edge of her clothes, looking a bit anxious.

"Are you referring to the Pill Tower's alchemy competition?"

Lin Xiu asked directly.

Hearing this, Xin Lan's eyes widened in surprise, clearly taken aback that he guessed her thoughts.

"Go back for now. I will attend the Pill Tower event. The Three Thousand Burning Flame there interests me greatly."

Lin Xiu was straightforward, "Before the competition starts, I will visit your Ye family. However, whether I can represent the Ye family in the battles will depend on the compensation you are willing to offer."

"Thank you, Elder Lin. Please rest assured, we won't let you down."

Xin Lan excitedly bowed to Lin Xiu.

Having witnessed Elder Lin's alchemical talents and skills during her time in Burning Flame Valley, she was confident that with Elder Lin's help, the Ye family would surely regain their status as Pill Tower elders.

Her only concern was convincing her family to offer something that would satisfy Elder Lin.

Thinking of this, Xin Lan didn't want to stay in Burning Flame Valley any longer. After bidding farewell to Lin Xiu, she hurriedly left.

Lin Xiu also did not linger. Once Tang Huo'er was ready, he took the two of them and left Burning Flame Valley.

On the way to the Wind Lightning Pavilion, with time on their side, Lin Xiu didn't rush. He frequently sparred with Yao Tian Huo, continually gaining experience and Attribute Points.
