A Bountiful Harvest in the Imperial Clan's Small World

"Awesome!"

High in the sky, Chu Xiao controlled his Heavenly Flame wings and flew at high speed, letting out a long howl as he weaved through the clouds.

Since ancient times, flight had been humanity's simplest desire, prompting countless attempts.

And now, he could achieve it through his own power. The feeling was wonderful.

"Using the Thunder Flame Emperor Flame to form wings for flight can also serve as a cultivation secret art."

As he flew, Chu Xiao continuously adjusted his posture and sensed the Dou Qi within his body.

With the help of his extraordinary comprehension, he quickly found a balance point. As the Thunder Flame Emperor Flame devoured the natural energy of fire, lightning, and wood, he could incorporate it into his own Dou Qi Armor.

This way, flying no longer consumed his own Dou Qi, and he did not have to worry about swallowing too much energy and becoming distracted.

Simply relying on Heavenly Flame wings to travel even allowed him to cultivate by absorbing the energy of heaven and earth.

This was practically the Dou Qi Continent version of Lingbo Weibu—getting stronger simply by flying.

"Now that I can fly, I might as well go receive some inheritances."

After enjoying the sensation of flight for a while, Chu Xiao thought of the foundations left behind within this Dou Di Fragmented Space.

After the Tunling Clan invaded this place, they had swept through it like locusts, abducting everything, including the descendants of the Imperial Clan.

Combined with the ravages of ten thousand years, this Small World was now as empty as an enlarged Storage Ring capable of holding living creatures.

Other than that, the energy of heaven and earth was considerably denser than outside, so it could be considered a portable blessed cultivation ground.

However, not every valuable item originally belonging to the Imperial Clan had been taken away.

For instance, there was an Assessment Hall located in the square before the foot of Sky Pillar Peak.

The descendants living in the Imperial Clan's exclusive Small World could apply for assessments upon reaching realms such as Dou Zhe, Dou Master, and Da Dou Shi.

If they became Dou Ling, they could register to join certain guards, similar to the Ancient Clan's Black Annihilation Army, which also had various internal ranks.

Originally, Chu Xiao had thought he would need to reach the Dou Wang realm, master a flying Dou Technique, or break through in soul realm until he could teleport over long distances before coming to this Assessment Hall.

This was quite an unexpected delight.

About a quarter of an hour later, Chu Xiao landed in an overgrown patch of land.

With a casual wave of his hand, black-purple flames surged forth and turned into a sea of fire, burning all vegetation within a hundred zhang into nothingness.

Before long, a barren clearing appeared. The surroundings were spotless, and aside from where Chu Xiao stood, there was only a half-zhang-tall platform resembling jade three zhang ahead of him.

The top of the platform was flat, allowing those undergoing assessment to place their hands upon it.

To activate the jade platform, one needed the blood of a descendant of the creator of this Dou Di Fragmented Space.

But Chu Xiao was now the master of this Small World, and his authority was even greater than that of ordinary descendants by bloodline.

When he placed his hand on it and injected a thread of Dou Qi, the platform's internal core activated, drawing in the energy of heaven and earth as it began to operate.

In the next instant, Chu Xiao felt himself enter an illusory space, where a body identical to his rapidly condensed before him.

"Perfect. Let's test my skills. Come fight!"

Chu Xiao summoned his Dou Qi Armor, then stomped off the ground and shot forward.

The body opposite him copied his movements exactly. Purple lightning also gathered in its hand, giving off a piercing crackle.

The Dou Technique paired with the Thunderclap Art, the Yellow Rank mid-level Dou Skill Thunderclap Hand, could condense lightning in one's palm and possessed immense piercing power.

Once cultivated to Great Accomplishment, even a Dou Master's Dou Qi gauze robe might not be able to withstand it.

Boom!

Chu Xiao exerted force beneath his feet, turning into an afterimage as he clashed with his own phantom.

Screech—

After several exchanges, a chorus of a thousand birds chirping rang out.

The phantom's body was pierced through by lightning and shattered into nothingness in an instant.

"My comprehension is getting a little monstrous."

Chu Xiao lowered his head to look at his hand, where lightning enhanced by the Thunder Flame Emperor Flame flickered.

While using Thunderclap Hand, he had suddenly thought of a lightning-style technique from an anime he had watched in his previous life.

Some guy whose chakra was measured in units had created Lightning Release: Chidori and improved it into Lightning Blade, only for Two-Pillar to turn it into all sorts of tricks.

Chidori Current, Chidori Blade, Chidori Sharp Spear, and other techniques could all be used directly without hand seals.

He could now form Dou Qi Armor, which was roughly equivalent to possessing a chakra cloak.

After enhancing Thunderclap Hand with the Thunder Flame Emperor Flame and modifying it a little—

He had not expected it to actually work!

"It should be at least comparable to a high-level Yellow Rank Dou Skill."

"If I want to create higher-grade cultivation methods and Dou Skills, I need to cultivate more of them to build up experience, or spend enough time on trial and error."

"But it seems unnecessary. I can use cheats."

Good comprehension naturally had to be used, but Chu Xiao felt it should be combined with his cheat.

"Hm!?"

He looked up and discovered a stronger phantom before him, one that had reached the two-star Da Dou Shi realm.

"Perfect. You can be my sparring partner and temper my practical combat ability."

Chu Xiao attacked again.

He became utterly absorbed in the assessment and the creation of techniques.

He completely treated the assessment platform as a tool for simulated battles.

Others could only use it once for each major realm, but as the master of the Small World, he could use it continuously.

Still, he had to be careful not to damage the core formation powering the jade platform. Otherwise, no one would be able to repair it for a long time.

About half an hour later, Chu Xiao used the Thunder Flame Emperor Flame to defeat a phantom of himself with Dou Ling-level strength.

The phantom only copied his Dou Skills and cultivation methods. It could not copy his comprehension, Heavenly Flames, or other external advantages.

Therefore, even though its realm was one level higher than his, its combat power was inferior to his.

"Realm assessment: one-star Da Dou Shi. Soul assessment: mid-level Mortal Realm. Combat power assessment: surpasses a one-star Dou Ling. Highest-level assessment passed."

"Detected Dou Qi attributes: wind and lightning. Searching for compatible Dou Qi cultivation methods. Inheriting the Low-Level Earth Grade Cultivation Method Wind Thunder Profound Classic. After completing the Dou Wang assessment, the High-Level Earth Grade Wind-Thunder Treasure Mirror may be unlocked. After completing the Dou Zun assessment, the Low-Level Heaven Tier Cultivation Method Wind-Thunder Cosmos Art may be unlocked!"

"Inheriting the Low-Level Earth Grade Dou Skill Wind-Thunder Profound Wings, the High-Level Mysterious Grade Dou Technique Sky Wind Steps, and the High-Level Mysterious Grade Dou Technique Falling Thunder Finger."

Chu Xiao sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and processed the vast amount of information that had appeared in his mind.

Once he had fully absorbed it, cyan and purple gleams flashed through his black eyes.

"Damn, these cultivation methods and Dou Skills are powerful."

"They're enough to last until I break through to Dou Zong, not to mention that there are advanced versions."

No wonder the Diary's rewards were so considerate.

This way, he could play the role of a reborn person even better.

With a thought, Chu Xiao took out the Diary Copy and began writing.

He needed to get started with all of these cultivation methods, but he would not write about them in detail.

After all, he might be using them for quite some time. Letting outsiders know every detail of the methods he cultivated would become a flaw and a weakness.

Recovering to the Da Dou Shi realm in three days was still thanks to my old companion, who was reborn alongside me.

"It finally updated again!"

The Women, who had been busy with their own affairs, picked up their Diary Copies once more.

"Old companion?" The Women were curious.

When someone used such a term, it was usually some kind of living creature.

Could it be that, aside from Feng Qing Er, he had also contracted a Super Divine Beast from the Great Thousand World?

No, Feng Qing Er was merely a mount. She was nowhere close to being called an old companion.

Feng Qing Er: "..."

My old companion was something I rescued from ruins hidden within a crack in time shortly after I broke through to the Heaven Supreme realm. It became an imprint upon my soul.

Any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures with lightning, fire, or wood attributes can become nourishment for its growth, and it will feed the benefits back to me.

In theory, as long as I have enough Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to devour, I can become a Dou Emperor within a few years.

The Women: !!!
