Chapter 156: Scorching Flame Technique

The sword auras that the few shot out collided with the icicles, and the countless icicles weren’t as strong as the sword auras, so they shattered into several pieces, falling to the ground.

Ye Qing Han’s eyes grew cold and moved two fingers.
The longsword in his hand suddenly grew bigger and he swung straight towards the front left.
A sword aura with a strong wave of Elemental Energy emerged from the sword and swept out.

[SQUEAK SQUEAK!!] Several icicles larger than before greeted Ye Qing Han’s sword aura accompanied by a few rat squeaks.

The two converged in mid-air in the dense fog and the strong purple sword aura swept in an arc, then instantly separated into countless wisps of sword auras.
It not only cut down the icicles, but a few wisps also headed towards the front left where the icicles erupted from.

[SQUEAK SQUEAK!] A few screams of rats sounded in the thick fog again.

The few people exchanged looks, then walked in the direction of the shrieking, each of them activating a layer of Elemental Energy shields.

When they approached that location, the few people saw three blue rats around the size of a rabbit watch them vigilantly, ready to attack at any time.
One of them was injured by Ye Qing Han’s sword aura and was lying on the ground rolling and shrieking.

[SHIU SHIU!!] As soon as the few people approached, the two uninjured Ice Fog Rats spat out rows upon rows of icicles, attacking them, filled with killing intent.

Lou Mu Yan sneered, snapped her fingers, and pointed her finger towards the sky as she whispered: “Fireball Technique.”

Following her voice, a wave of heat spread out in the sky above and in a short while, fist-sized fireballs fell continuously from the sky.

As soon as the icicles that were shot out touched the fireball, they continuously let off white steam, gradually melting into water droplets.

The fireball shot indiscriminately and fell uninterrupted, instantly dissolving all the icicles into droplets of water.

But the fireballs didn’t stop, and they fell in the direction where the three Ice Fog Rats were half-squatting.
The two uninjured Ice Fog Rats instantly ran away, but fireballs would also touch their fur and skin, so their shrieks kept sounding.

While that Ice Fog Rat that was already injured and unable to run was even more miserable.
The fireballs fell on its body one by one and not long after, the shrieks gradually faded.
The body of the Ice Fog Rat was also burned to ashes by the fireball.

Seeing the two Ice Fog Rats fleeing while shrieking in one direction, Lou Mu Yan’s eyes grew cold and pinched a seal in her hands.

Since the two Ice Fog Rats wanted to attack and kill them secretly, then they should be prepared to be counter-killed.
She wouldn’t let them have the opportunity to seek help from the Rat King.

Just when the two Ice Fog Rats thought they were lucky to have escaped the fireballs and wanted to go find reinforcements, a huge fire wave suddenly surged from ahead of them.
Before they could react, they were swallowed by it and also burned to ashes.

“Mu Yan, has your Fire Elemental Energy reached the state where it could do as your heart pleased?” Mu Yi stared at the fireball and fire wave that had disappeared in surprise and the emotions in his heart didn’t tumble any less actively than the fire wave.

Comprehending Elemental Energy Law until the state where one could control it as they pleased usually required one to have reached the hurdle of entering a Sword Sovereign Stage from Peak-Phase Sword Monarch.
Only then could one be able to have that revelation.
But how did Lou Mu Yan, who was only at Sword King strength, able to do it? While he was shocked, he was also very puzzled.

As a master at playing with fire, Shi Feng’s face couldn’t help but change when he saw Lou Mu Yan control the Fire Elemental Energy as her heart pleased and was also wondering how she did it.

Even Ye Qing Han and the other two looked at her in confusion.

Lou Mu Yan brushed her sleeves and smiled faintly, saying: “It’s just a Technique.”

The Fireball Technique was a basic Technique that Cultivators during the Meditation Stage could practically all do, but it was laborious and time-consuming to practice it to Perfection.

It just so happened that when she was at the Meditation Stage, because her cultivation base was soaring too fast, causing it to be unstable, she used these Techniques to practice one by one until Perfection, and the rewards were very high.
Not only did it stabilise her cultivation base, but it also had miraculous effects against opponents.

Not only the Scorching Flame Technique, even Water Condensing Technique, Weathering Technique and the other Techniques had all been practiced by her until the Perfection State.

The Fireball Technique she used just now was a type of Scorching Flame Technique.
It was originally controlled by Spiritual Energy, but this Continent had a stronger comprehension of the elements, so the effect of using Fire Elemental Energy Condensation was better than using Spiritual Energy.

She had indeed reached the state where it did as her heart pleased, but it completely relied on her previous life’s experience and painstaking practice.
It wasn’t something one could do with just talent.

“Technique? It’s the first time I’ve seen such a Technique.” Shi Feng rubbed his chin and asked: “Mu Yan, is it convenient for you to tell me the name of your Technique?”

“Scorching Flame Technique.” Lou Mu Yan didn’t conceal it either.

Hearing this name, the few people fell into deep thought, but it bore no fruits—they had indeed not heard of this type of Technique.

“These kinds of Techniques are actually just some ways to get started with the elements.
It wasn’t easy to cultivate to Perfection, but if you want, I can make a copy of the Scorching Flame Technique on a jade slip for you to study.” Lou Mu Yan said very openly and generously with a smile.

This kind of Technique was found anywhere in the Clans and Sects of the Immortal Cultivation World and wasn’t much of a secret at all.
If one wanted to cultivate it to Perfection, aside from the talent of comprehending the Laws, the most important thing was to be able to calm one’s heart and ceaselessly train.

Since Mu Yi and the others were all interested, it didn’t matter if she gifted it to them.
Whether they could cultivate it to Perfection or not was dependant on their own level of hard work.

“Isn’t that not good, records of Techniques are exceptionally precious.” Ye Qing Han shook his head slightly.

Although Methods weren’t as rare as pill formulas and Smithing Secret Books, but was also extremely precious, especially records of Techniques—they were even rarely found in the public.
For example, if a jade slip of the Technique Lou Mu Yan just used was auctioned off at an auction, then the price would definitely be exceptionally high.

Mu Yi and Shi Feng were extremely excited and there was some burning desire in their eyes.
They were in professions that dealt with fire in the long-term, so they were naturally very excited about this kind of Technique.

However, after listening to Ye Qing Han’s words, they also thought that Lou Mu Yan did things freely and generously, but they couldn’t take advantage of it.

“Technique Records are hard to come by.
I’m indeed really interested in this Scorching Flame Technique, but I can’t get it for nothing.”

With a thought, an extra cyan bead appeared in Mu Yi’s hand, “This is a Water-Repelling Bead which can activate a layer of light shield for protection and could be used as a defensive Magic Tool.
When used underwater, you can avoid the water current and walk around freely.
When worn on you, it also has the effect of warming in winter and cooling in summer.
How about I exchange this with you?”

After listening to him, Lou Mu Yan became rather interested in this Water-Repelling Bead and jokingly said: “This bead already isn’t a common product at first glance.
Are you sure you’re willing to exchange a middle-level Magic Treasure for a Technique?”

“What’s there to be unwilling.
Your Scorching Flame Technique is more suitable for my identity as a Smith.” Mu Yi’s persistent love for Smithing was no less than Shi Feng’s love for Alchemy.
Not to mention he was also a fire lover.

“Sure, deal.” Lou Mu Yan took out a few empty jade slips and copied the Scorching Flame Technique using Mental Energy onto it, then threw it to them one by one.

Shi Feng also gave Lou Mu Yan an offensive Magic Treasure on him in exchange.

While Ye Qing Han, Ling Fei Yang and Yun Lan’s exchange items were rejected by her.

Their relationship would appear too distant if even gifting a Technique required them to trade something.

Mu Yi and Shi Feng didn’t care about her actions either.
Everyone knew the principle that there were differences between close ones and distant ones.
They didn’t want her to suffer any losses to begin with, and they were even more willing to trade things in exchange for Techniques.
It was better than owing personal favours.

The few took a rest for a bit, then continued to move onwards.
After walking for more than two hours, the mist in the forest faded a little bit.
When they took got a foothold, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
