The process of refining the Demon Saint Essence Blood is extremely long. Even though Huo Xuan has perfectly controlled it, the energy contained in the essence blood is immense. If one is not careful, it could cause extremely serious consequences. Therefore, one must be patient.
Time flies by.
In the days that followed, Huo Xuan remained immersed in refining the Demon Saint Essence Blood.
This refining process continued for nearly twenty days. During this almost month-long period, Huo Xuan showed no signs of waking up. The energy mist surrounding him grew increasingly dense and intense, eventually Huo Xuan his entire body...
Those energy mists were extremely pure; if you grabbed a handful, they would be as viscous as water...
Time flew by. One day, as dawn gradually enveloped the earth and the first rays of sunlight poured down from the sky, the viscous energy mist enveloping the Huo Xuan suddenly emitted violent fluctuations. It was as if all the energy in this world was being drawn in at that moment, surging forth in a massive, overwhelming rush, finally converging into a colossal Energy Storm overhead!
At a certain moment, within the energy mist, Huo Xuan's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and a powerful energy surge burst forth from his body. Immediately afterward, Huo Xuan opened his mouth and took a deep breath!
"Boom!"
With this sudden inhale, the Energy Storm swirling above his head surged down, flowing down his throat and into Huo Xuan's body.
As the last bit of energy entered his body, the world gradually quieted down. An incomparably vast aura surged from Huo Xuan's body, and his cultivation level began to rise steadily along with that surging aura!
One-Star Dou Sheng Initial Stage!
Mid-Stage One-Star Dou Saint!
Late-stage One-Star Dou Sheng!
Two-Star Dou Sheng!
After soaring from One-Star Dou Sheng to a Two-Star Dou Sheng, the upward momentum did not slow down in the slightest...
Early-Stage Two-Star Dou Sheng!
Mid-Stage Two-Star Dou Sheng!
Late-stage Two-Star Dou Sheng!
Three-Star Dou Sheng!
"Call..."
A breath brimming with rich energy erupted from his nostrils with each exhale, coiling upwards like a dragon before vanishing into the world...
As the upward momentum ended, his cultivation level finally stabilized at the Three-Star Dou Sheng Middle Stage. From the One-Star Dou Sheng Initial Stage to the Three-Star Dou Sheng Middle Stage, he had improved by two stars and one small realm!
Huo Xuan carefully sensed the changes within himself, and after a moment, he revealed a smile, clearly very satisfied with the result.
"Three-Star Dou Sheng Middle Stage, Demon Saint Essence Blood, the effect is not bad."
Inside the Flame Clan's Pill Refining Room.
"Huo Xuan, this is the pill you requested."
The three white-haired old men in the Pill Refining Room knew why Huo Xuan had come when they saw him arrive.
The elder at the head of the group took out a Jade Box from his Storage Ring and handed it to Huo Xuan.
Upon receiving the Jade Box, Huo Xuan felt a chill in his hands. He opened Jade Box, and inside, amidst swirling clouds of Pill Cloud, a dark red pill floated quietly above Pill Cloud. An unusually cold aura emanated from the jade box, causing ice shards to continuously fall from the sky within a ten-foot radius.
"This is the Nine Yin Yellow Springs Pill you need. It was only through the combined efforts of all the elders that we were able to refine it."
"Thank you for your help, elders."
"Regarding the descent of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, we cannot object to you fighting for this Strange Fire. But you must understand that what is destined to be yours will be yours, and what is not, you cannot force."
The old man knew what Huo Xuan wanted the Nine Yin Yellow Springs Pill for. They didn't object, nor could they object. They could only warn him not to be too obsessed with the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.
After all, the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame has never been truly subdued in any of its previous appearances...
"Take heed of the elders' admonition!"
In the days that followed, Huo Xuan had a lot of free time, and the Yan Jin Qi seemed to have completely dissipated. One day, he finally regained his identity Young Clan Leader Huo Xuan.
No one objected to this. Since the last betrayal within the clan over the position of Young Clan Leader, in which an elder was killed without a complete corpse and the leader of the Yan Clan's Four Heroes was burned to death, no one in the Flame Clan dares to let their child compete for the position of Young Clan Leader.
Among the younger generation, no one dared to Huo Xuan. They all knew this older brother was not to be trifled with. Not only was he incredibly strong, but he also held grudges, was ruthless, and rumored to have a particular fondness for killing. He was simply someone no one wanted to mess with...
It has been less than three years since the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame descended into the world. Counting the days, there should be about two more years. In the next year, a group of the Flame Clan geniuses who obtained Bodhi Seed and attempted to break through to the Half-Saint realm through seclusion will gradually emerge, but their results will be disappointing...
Another six months passed after that. Huo Yun and the other two also emerged from seclusion one after another. Their seclusion lasted for nearly two years, and when they came out, that monotonous and boring life quickly came to an end.
Because of their connection with Huo Xuan, and because their own strength is indeed quite good, they receive excellent treatment among the younger generation of the Flame Clan, seemingly second only to Huo Xuan.
The reason lies in the fact that, throughout the entire Battle Through the Heavens, the ratio of handsome men to ordinary-looking people is at least nine to one. Huo Yun and his two companions also possess good looks and formidable strength, attracting many beautiful young women who are infatuated with them. Since emerging from seclusion, each of them has been entangled with several women every day. Huo Xuan, however, remains indifferent, letting them handle their own affairs.
After nearly two years of seclusion, the three of them had not yet broken through to the Half-Saint realm. They had only barely reached the Nine Revolutions Realm. However, although they had not broken through to the Half-Saint, they were still among the best performers.
Of those who were in seclusion together, all except Huo Zhi have emerged, and none of them have successfully broken through to the level of Half-Saint.
Huo Xuan is very optimistic about Huo Zhi's ability to break through to the Dou Sheng this time, given that Huo Zhi possesses the Bodhi Heart.
As long as Huo Zhi can diligently refine that Bodhi Heart, becoming a Dou Sheng is only a matter of time.
Bodhi Heart, is attained by those who possess it. Transforming the mind into Bodhi, achieving sainthood, is merely a matter of lifting a finger!
This is no exaggeration!
Gu World.
"Miss, these are the cultivation resources you need."
A middle-aged woman, as usual, delivered a batch of cultivation resources to Gu Xun'er. After putting down the resources, she turned and left as always.
In the past two years, Gu Xun'er has been almost entirely immersed in cultivation, a veritable cultivation fanatic!
Cultivation!
Strength!
What Gu Xun'er desires most right now is immense power. Want to gain immense power? Then she must cultivate, cultivate relentlessly!
After about two years of arduous training, his own cultivation has made a qualitative leap!
Advanced Half-Saint!
With Gu Xun'er's current strength, she can be considered a powerful figure in the entire Gu Clan.
But that's not enough!
That's far from enough!
According to the people who returned from the Wild Ancient Region, Huo Xuan had undergone Hundred Lifetimes Reincarnation under the Bodhi Ancient Tree, and his cultivation had already reached the Dou Sheng!
Huo Xuan is now Dou Sheng Expert, while she has only barely reached the Advanced Half-Saint.
Half-Saint is utterly powerless against Dou Sheng.
"I absolutely cannot fall behind!"
"Next, let's break through to the Dou Sheng in one go!"
