After Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan, the two beauties, went upstairs, Ye Xiao found himself bored and turned to head back to his own room.

At this time, Su Yun was still asleep in the bathtub, seemingly not going to come out until she had absorbed all the Source Life Liquid. Ye Xiao walked to the side of his bed, thinking that Su Yun would probably spend the night in his room. Although he didn't mind sharing a bed with a woman, Su Yun definitely would, at least, she wouldn't be so willing!

Therefore, Ye Xiao went straight to the place where he often refined medicine. At this time, there were no materials left, so he couldn't refine any. Sitting cross-legged, his eyes slowly closed!

As Ye Xiao's eyes slowly closed, a layer of purple mist slowly appeared around his body, quickly enveloping him in its dense, purple haze. To the ordinary person, it would be impossible to see clearly what Ye Xiao was doing inside the mist.

Now, Ye Xiao was completely at the late stage of the third layer of the Purple Qi from the East. Consequently, the purple mist was very thick.

Time always flies when practicing. Ye Xiao hadn't realized how long it had been when he noticed Su Yun coming out of the bathroom.

After Su Yun walked out of the bathroom and saw Ye Xiao sitting on the ground surrounded by purple mist, she was immediately surprised. She had never seen this purple mist before.

The last time Ye Xiao had demonstrated it at Su Yun's place, Su Yun had been in the kitchen and hadn't seen it, so now, seeing Ye Xiao surrounded by the purple mist, her face was full of surprise.

Ye Xiao slowly opened his eyes, and the purple mist dissipated.

"Do I look cool?" Ye Xiao said with a smile, looking at Su Yun!

Su Yun instantly blushed and asked, "How come there was a purple mist around you just now?"

"Oh, that's an Internal Cultivation Method I practice," Ye Xiao replied.

"Is it the Fire Spirit Skill you're cultivating?" Su Yun asked Ye Xiao, full of curiosity.

"Fire Spirit Skill?" Ye Xiao shook his head and replied, "No, why do you think it's the Fire Spirit Skill?"

Su Yun hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "The Fire Spirit Skill, when mastered, will produce purple True Qi. However, it is more diluted compared to your purple True Qi."

Fire Spirit Skill?

Ye Xiao had never heard of it, but could it be that the Fire Spirit Skill has similar aspects to the Nine Yang Divine Skill, or is it related to the lost fragments of the Nine Yang Divine Skill?

Ye Xiao immediately asked, "Where did you come across this Fire Spirit Skill you speak of?"

"It's a secret manual I practice!" Su Yun revealed. "It's also a secret passed down in my family."

It was actually Su Yun's family secret technique. Previously, Ye Xiao had never inquired about Su Yun's family affairs, but now, it seemed that Su Yun's family was not an ordinary one—at least, it must be a family of Martial Artists, otherwise, how could it be called a family heirloom?

If the contents of the Fire Spirit Skill were similar to the Nine Yang Divine Skill, perhaps, the elders in Su Yun's family might know the whereabouts of the fragments of the Nine Yang Divine Skill.

Ye Xiao inquired, "Can you tell me the content of your Fire Spirit Skill manual?"

"The content of the Fire Spirit Skill?" Su Yun immediately wondered, asking, "Why do you want to know about the Fire Spirit Skill? How is it useful?"

"It really is important. The Inner Strength I cultivate comes from a fragment, so I suspect this Fire Spirit Skill might stem from the same source as my Internal Cultivation Methods!" Ye Xiao explained.

"The cultivation technique you practice is..."

"Sorry, I can't tell you right now. Can you share the Fire Spirit Skill manual with me?" Ye Xiao looked at Su Yun.

Listening to Ye Xiao's words, Su Yun hesitated. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but the elders in her family had said that the Fire Spirit Skill was a family secret not to be disclosed, as doing so could be catastrophic for the family. Moreover, the Fire Spirit Skill was originally meant for the male members of the family to practice. However, because Su Yun's brother doted on her excessively and she was also passionate about Martial Arts, her brother secretly passed the Fire Spirit Skill to her.

Su Yun had remarkable results practicing the Fire Spirit Skill, and her strength had increased very quickly. However, when she reached the sixth layer of the skill, her meridians could not withstand the intense yang nature of the Fire Spirit Skill, nearly resulting in a cultivation deviation. With the help of her brother and father, she narrowly avoided death but lost all her strength and could no longer practice Martial Arts.

If it hadn't been for Ye Xiao using the Heart Cleansing Pill, Su Yun would probably have been reduced to spending her life as a commoner.

Thus, Ye Xiao had in a sense given Su Yun a second life.

This was also the reason for Su Yun's hesitation. If it weren't for the kindness Ye Xiao had shown her, she would have likely refused without a second thought.

"You must promise that the Fire Spirit Skill manual cannot be disclosed. It is a rule in our family that the Fire Spirit Skill must not be passed on," Su Yun said.

Ye Xiao smiled faintly, able to see that Su Yun had made a significant decision.

"I won't put you in a difficult position!" Ye Xiao gently smiled and said, "Tell me about it now, orally."

Subsequently, Su Yun recited the Fire Spirit Skill to Ye Xiao.

The more profound the Internal Cultivation Manual, the fewer the words. The Nine Yang Divine Skill, for instance, was extremely brief, which is why the more advanced Inner Strength methods were rarely fully mastered. To master such an advanced method, talent and insight were of utmost importance.

The Fire Spirit Skill did not have many words, but even so, it amounted to about five times more than the fragment of the Nine Yang Divine Skill Ye Xiao possessed.

The words of the Fire Spirit Skill echoed in Ye Xiao's mind, and he was slightly astonished, because many parts of the Fire Spirit Skill were very similar to the third layer of the Nine Yang Divine Skill, the Purple Qi from the East. However, it seemed that the Fire Spirit Skill was similar only to the third layer of the Nine Yang Divine Skill and did not resemble any other layers.

Could it be that the Fire Spirit Skill was actually based on the Purple Qi from the East of the Nine Yang Divine Skill's third layer? Oh, no, that's not quite right. The Fire Spirit Skill also wasn't entirely the same as the Nine Yang Divine Skill's third layer, at least from the sixth and seventh layers up to the ninth layer, these were entirely different from the Purple Qi from the East, and they also differed from other layers Ye Xiao held.

If the first to sixth layers of the Fire Spirit Skill were based on the Purple Qi from the East, what about the remaining three layers? What kind of cultivation technique could they be? Ye Xiao felt that these three layers were much more profound than the first six, and even he found them quite challenging to control.

"Practicing up to the sixth layer, what level could be reached?" Ye Xiao asked Su Yun.

Su Yun looked at Ye Xiao and replied, "Roughly the early to middle stages of Xuan Rank. However, my brother said that from the seventh layer of the Fire Spirit Skill onwards, each advancement signifies a qualitative leap in strength. If the Fire Spirit Skill is mastered, one's strength could possibly reach the middle stage of Earth Rank or thereabouts."
