Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint

The courtyard.

Jiang Ning was breathing and releasing the Essence of the Great Sun.

He sensed strands of the Great Sun Essence Qi entering his body.

Suddenly.

As the Essence Qi of the Great Sun flowed into his organs.

The initially peaceful and harmonious Glazed Treasure Flame, like a blooming lotus, suddenly became turbulent.

The cyan flame was stimulated by the Essence Qi of the Great Sun, and the fire instantly surged.

Waves of heat spread from Jiang Ning's body.

"Not good!" Wang Qintan, witnessing this scene, felt the tide-like heat waves spreading from Jiang Ning, and her expression changed drastically.

Two flames vying will inevitably result in harm.

She had awakened part of her past life's memories and knew this all too well.

In the next moment.

Her figure flashed, and she came before Jiang Ning.

The scorching heat waves made her squint her eyes slightly.

"Since I chose you, recognized you! I won't stand by and not help you!" Wang Qintan murmured softly.

Though they were so close, Jiang Ning could sense Wang Qintan's breath.

Feeling slightly moved in his heart.

He then felt a softness pressing onto his lips, followed by a sensation like a flame transferring to him.

[Obtained the fragmentary Authority of the Master of Ten Thousand Flames.]

At this moment.

Even with his eyes closed, he could still see the flashed notification before him.

Sensing the sweet scent on his tongue, he couldn't help but lick.

...

The courtyard.

Wang Qintan leapt away like a frightened little rabbit from Jiang Ning.

Then, looking at Jiang Ning, she touched her lips and bit her finger.

"This should be fine now!"

Meanwhile.

Jiang Ning sensed the two incompatible energies of water and fire now unusually docile.

The Glazed Treasure Flame was no longer silent, nor releasing energy slowly.

At this moment, it transformed into a blooming cyan lotus, as its petals kept blossoming, waves of energy like tides spread out in all directions.

Layer upon layer, like waves advancing by pushing each other.

His whole body felt relaxed and transparent under the current of this energy.

Understanding the changes within him, Jiang Ning knew it was due to Wang Qintan's assistance.

A part of the Authority of the Master of Ten Thousand Flames was divided and given to him, under his control.

Obtaining the Authority of the Master of Ten Thousand Flames, energy from the Great Sun Essence Qi and from the Glazed Treasure Flame instantly became docile and no longer turbulent, under his control.

He couldn't help but feel helpless about it.

Such turbulence just now was nothing to him now.

The trait of Water and Fire Control combined with the trait of Water and Fire Immortal Clothes.

Made him completely fearless of such extreme energy conflicts.

But he also understood that Wang Qintan did not know this.

She only wanted to help him.

Thinking this, his heart softened.

Beside him.

Wang Qintan saw the cyan ripples beginning to spread from Jiang Ning's body, then gradually backed away.

The Glazed Treasure Flame was now fully releasing energy.

As the cyan ripples spread, the surrounding vegetation instantly caught cyan flames.

Anything that was tainted by the cyan flames instantly turned to ash, and the flames disappeared.

Wang Qintan glanced around.

Swish—

A long sword appeared in her hand.

Buzz—

As her wrist flicked, the sword hummed, then the sword light flashed.

The surrounding vegetation broke.

In an instant, she cleared out a circle to isolate the spread of the flames.

"That should do it!!"

Seeing the cyan ripples within Jiang Ning no longer spreading outward, Wang Qintan nodded slightly.

If they continued to spread, she'd worry about the nearby bamboo grove catching fire.

Then she looked at the cyan ripples disappearing a foot away from him, with a hint of eagerness in her eyes.

Then.

She stretched out her finger.

Her slender fingers seemed perfectly untouched by practice, as if they belonged to a gentlewoman untouched by work.

When her fingers touched the cyan ripples, she found the ripples were brushed away like water ripples.

The cyan ripples, capable of igniting and burning vegetation instantly, couldn't harm her at all, giving her the feeling of touching warm water.

"I was really powerful in my previous life!!" Wang Qintan sighed, feeling not a bit of joy, but rather worry in her eyes, her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Then she stared blankly at Jiang Ning, no one knew what she was thinking.

Less than thirty minutes later.

The cyan ripples dispersing from Jiang Ning's body disappeared, the agitated energy within him also returned to calm.

He could feel the Glazed Treasure Flame, after its explosive release, now only resonated, with the released energy becoming gentle.

Then.

He opened his eyes and looked at the sky.

Now at noon, the scorching sun hung high.

The temperature was frighteningly high.

Since that Yellow Heaven Sect's Heavenly King personally ascended the Magic Platform and prayed for rain, the weather became unbearably hot, the temperature steadily rising.

Jiang Ning began to breathe and release the Essence of the Great Sun.

The glow streaked across the sky, landing in the courtyard, entering his organs through his nostrils.

[Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill EXP +1]

[Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill EXP +1]

[Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill EXP +1]

[...]

He was back on track.

The progress of Inner Elixir Cultivation was slowly and steadily increasing.

The blazing sun overhead gradually moved from the zenith to the west.

On the other side.

Lv Yi was already preparing lunch.

As Jiang Ning needed to breathe and release the Essence of the Great Sun at noon every day, he formed a habit.

Only after noon would they have lunch together.

It was so in Luoshui County, in Dongling City, and here as well.
