The Fall of Starfall Pavilion, Three Days From Now!

"Brother, you were looking for me."

Xiao Yan arrived at the Secret Chamber where Xiao Yuan was in seclusion and asked.

"Hmm, let me see your hand."

Xiao Yuan nodded and waved to Xiao Yan.

"Huh? What's so interesting about hands?"

Xiao Yan was taken aback, but still reached out his hand.

"Let's study the differences in human anatomy."

Xiao Yuan gave a concise explanation, then pulled Xiao Yan's hand over and scanned it with his soul power to examine it.

Hmm? Upon investigation, Xiao Yuan indeed noticed some differences.

Over the years, due to his practice of the Five Elements Qi Palace Secret Method, all of Xiao Yuan's meridians have been opened up. In addition, with continuous opportunities, his physical body has undergone a transformation, and some previously unnoticed collateral meridians have also been developed.

Therefore, they do not need the help of the Golden Spirit Saliva.

But when Xiao Yuan compared him to Xiao Yan, he noticed a problem.

Some of the collateral meridians in Xiao Yan's hands have not been opened up and are still blocked.

These meridians are in the most crucial positions. In other words, without the guidance of these circulating meridians, if one tries to forcefully use the Great Heaven Creation Palm, the vast energy will only condense in the palm but will not be able to break out of the body. This is like the gas in a jar expanding more and more, which will eventually cause the jar to explode. At that time, the person using the palm will probably be blown to pieces!

"Elder brother?"

Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Yuan with a face full of doubt and couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, I've got you something good."

As Xiao Yuan spoke, he took out the Golden Spirit Saliva and poured it into Xiao Yan's hand.

"Hiss!"

The dark golden liquid enveloped Xiao Yan's entire right palm. An uncontrollable, intense pain suddenly surged from his palm, causing his face to contort in agony. Under the envelopment of the dark golden liquid, his hand began to writhe strangely, and even the faint sound of bones squeezing could be heard.

"Holy crap, bro, are you sure this is good stuff?!"

Xiao Yan said through gritted teeth.

"Absolutely great!"

Xiao Yuan gave a thumbs up.

"My hand is ruined!"

The squeezing sensation grew stronger and stronger, and just when Xiao Yan thought his palm was about to be crushed, the excruciating pain suddenly stopped. The dark golden liquid, like a tide, seeped into his hand and quickly disappeared.

???

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then his gaze fell on his right palm, where a dark golden metallic luster was faintly visible.

"Look, this is good stuff!"

As he spoke, Xiao Yuan reached out and touched Xiao Yan's brow, and the cultivation method of the Great Heaven Creation Palm was directly passed on to him.

"This is... Heaven Rank Battle Skill???"

Xiao Yan was taken aback and looked at Xiao Yuan with some surprise.

"Hmm, the spoils from the ruins, but you can practice this later. It's time to refine the body for the teacher."

Xiao Yuan nodded, then flicked his finger, and the Dou Sheng Skeleton not far away was enveloped by soul power and floated away in mid-air.

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and quickly chased after them.

"Brother, wait for me!"

Back Mountain Starfall Peak, inside the Stone Tower.

"Teacher, the body refining is about to begin. Are you ready?"

Xiao Yuan waved his hand, using his soul power to place the jade-white Dou Sheng Skeleton on the ground. Then, he turned his gaze to Yao Lao, who was not far away, and said with a smile.

"Um."

The Yao Lao nodded solemnly. Even with his calm demeanor, he couldn't help but feel a ripple of emotion.

"Old Feng, the body refining and fusion process may take some time. During this period, do not allow anyone to enter the Stone Tower."

Xiao Yuan turned his gaze to the Wind Venerable and the others beside him, and said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, once you begin, the Starfall Pavilion will be on high alert, and the powerful figures outside will be summoned back."

Wind Venerable nodded solemnly.

Xiao Yuan nodded slightly, gradually calming his mind. After a moment, he took a deep breath. Xiao Yan, who was beside him, handed the jade bottle containing the Bone Growing Blood Melting Pill to Yao Lao. Yao Lao was naturally very familiar with these steps and did not hesitate. He reached out and took the jade bottle. Then, with a thought, a wisp of his soul flew out and hovered beside Xiao Yuan.

Upon seeing Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yan, and Yao Chen, Wind Venerable and Cai Lin exchanged glances and quietly withdrew from the Stone Tower without making any noise to disturb the two.

The departure of the crowd did not distract Xiao Yuan. His expression was solemn. He grabbed the wisp of soul beside him and then slapped the skeleton on the stone platform, forcibly pushing the soul into the bones.

"Teacher, let's refine the body first. Once successful, you can enter it and complete the fusion step!"

With a low shout, Xiao Yuan clenched his fist, and a jade bottle appeared in his hand. The essence blood of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix flowed slowly within the jade bottle, and astonishing energy fluctuations emanated from it, causing the space to tremble violently.

This time, Xiao Yuan prepared only the best materials for refining the body for Yao Lao, so the difficulty of the refining process will far exceed that of the time he helped Heavenly Flame Venerable refine the body.

"Go!"

With a flick of his finger, the blood inside the jade bottle gushed out, finally spilling onto the jade-white skeleton, instantly erupting in bursts of white smoke and accompanied by a continuous hissing sound.

"Sizzle!"

As soon as the golden, bluish-purple blood touched the jade-white skeleton, the bluish-purple color spread rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the color of the skeleton changed from jade-white to a magnificent bluish-purple, with golden light flowing on it, making it look quite mystical. Moreover, faintly, a rich energy fluctuation emanated from within the skeleton.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan raised his hand, and the purplish-blue skeleton automatically floated up. With a wave of his sleeve, golden flames surged out, completely enveloping the skeleton. The essence blood of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix was quite domineering and difficult to fuse with, so he had to use Heavenly Flames to roast these energies into the depths of every bone in the skeleton. Only in this way could the skeleton truly absorb all of these amazing energies.

At the same time, Xiao Yan also made a move. With the tacit understanding between the two brothers, there would naturally be no situation where the Heavenly Flames would fight each other. Moreover, the Flame Mantra Dou Qi could also harmonize the Heavenly Flames.

Both of their Heavenly Flames are now among the top eight on the Heavenly Flames ranking list, and when they burn together, the effect is extremely excellent!

As the flames blazed, a thin bluish-purple light shield appeared on the bluish-purple skeleton. Even so, the penetrating high temperature still caused tiny bubbles to appear on the surface of the skeleton. Occasionally, when the bubbles burst, a rich energy would spread out.

This tempering and roasting process was quite time-consuming, lasting for almost a whole day before Xiao Yuan slowly opened his slightly closed eyes. At this moment, the bluish-purple color on the skeleton had undoubtedly become much darker, no longer as bright as before. But Xiao Yuan, who knew this, understood that this was because the energy had gradually penetrated into the depths of the skeleton under the high temperature.

"Call"

Xiao Yuan let out a long breath and glanced at Yao Lao beside him. The latter smiled and nodded. Now, the two disciples' Control Fire Technique each had their own methods, but they also had commonalities.

"Teacher!"

A moment later, seeing that the skeleton was almost finished being refined, Xiao Yuan's expression became solemn, and he shouted in a deep voice.

"Um."

The Yao Lao nodded. With his keen eye, he knew that now was the best time. He quickly took out the Bone Growing Blood Melting Pill from the jade bottle, swallowed it, and his figure quickly became ethereal, transforming into a beam of light and disappearing into the skeleton.

"Bang!"

The moment the Yao Lao's soul entered the skeleton, the skeleton trembled violently. Light gradually gathered in the empty eye sockets, and at that moment, terrifying and strange energy emanated from within the skeleton. Under this energy, flesh and blood began to miraculously appear on the bones. This miraculous effect of flesh growing from bones was naturally brought about by the Bone Growing Blood Melting Pill.

"Teacher, hold on!"

As they watched the flesh and blood tissue rapidly writhing on the skeleton, Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan's expressions also became solemn, and the golden flames and dark purple flames that enveloped the skeleton immediately blazed up.

Under the intense heat of the flames, the newly formed flesh and blood tissue was burned to ashes. But as soon as the ashes dispersed, terrifying and strange energy spread out again, and the growth rate of the flesh and blood became faster and faster. In the end, only the rapid wriggling of the flesh buds could be seen, and a bloody and indistinct humanoid outline quickly took shape.

This burning and growth continued for a full two and a half hours, and the skin tissue on the originally bare skeleton finally took shape under the scorching heat of the flames.

As skin regenerated, the skeleton on the stone platform completely transformed into human form. Next, it was time for Yao Lao to complete the final fusion with this body, and then the Venerable Yao once amazed the Douqi Continent would be able to truly be reborn from the ashes!

Tianming Sect.

"You mean, Xiao Yuan alone killed several Dou Zun elders of my Tianming Sect?"

Inside the main hall, Tianming Sect, the sect leader of the Tian Ming Zi, spoke with a gloomy expression.

"Hehehe, that Xiao Yuan is now a well-known little giant in the Danta. Several Heavenly Venerable of my Soul Hall have all fallen at his hands. Even the death of the Ninth Heavenly Venerable Mo Yu seems to be related to him."

Inside the main hall, black mist floated, followed by a chilling laugh.

"Even Mo Yu is no match for him?"

Upon hearing this, Tian Ming Zi's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to invite your sect to join forces against the Starfall Pavilion! You should know that with the names of three Eighth Grade Alchemist — Yao Chen, Xiao Yuan, and Xiao Yan — the Starfall Pavilion has gathered quite a few powerful figures. Dealing with them won't be easy!"

Amidst the ripples of black mist, a chilling voice continued to emanate.

"You people from the Soul Hall still like to hide your true colors. I wonder which Heavenly Venerable invited me to join the attack."

Tian Ming Zi glanced at the black mist and frowned.

Upon hearing this, the black mist rippled, and a rich, bloody stench emanated from it. The black mist then transformed into a crimson color, and as the blood mist surged, a figure entirely covered in blood slowly emerged.

This person was dressed in a blood-red robe, with long, scarlet hair, red eyes, and red eyebrows. At first glance, a chilling, bloody aura permeated the air.

"So it was Fourth Heavenly Venerable of the Soul Hall, the Blood River Tian Zun."

Seeing this, Tian Ming Zi also stood up and slowly walked down.

"How is it, Tian Ming Zi?"

Blood River Tian Zun's scarlet eyebrows twitched slightly as he asked.

"If it's just you alone, I think it's better to give up. Xiao Yuan probably has the Space Jade Slip of the Pill Tower Three Giants. If the three of them join forces, they can even contend with Half-Saint level expert. With your strength at the One Revolution Dou Zun Peak, you can't be of much help."

Tian Ming Zi shook his head and said calmly.

In fact, after Yi Chen, the Young Sect Master of the Tianming Sect, was killed, Tian Ming Zi had been thinking of causing trouble for Xiao Yuan.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to find.

As a minor powerhouse in the Danta, Xiao Yuan Xiao Yuan is no match for ordinary experts, but when faced with a super expert, he can even sway the three giants to his side.

It's impossible to do.

The Pill Tower Three Giants are no longer bound by the Three Thousand Burning Flame and unable to leave the Danta as they were in the past.

These three giants are all genuine Nine Stars Dou Zun Peak! They are only lacking some opportunities to break through to the Half-Saint, not because they lack sufficient accumulation.

As for Tian Ming Zi, he was only at the Three-Star Dou Zun Peak, and he was no match for the Pill Tower Three Giants.

"Hehehe, don't worry. The Pill Tower Three Giants will naturally be restrained by other experts from my Soul Hall. At that time, the three giants will be trapped. Then, who in the Starfall Pavilion will be able to stop us?"

Upon hearing this Blood River Tian Zun let out a strange laugh and said in a chilling tone.

"Oh? If that's the case, then we can give it a try!"

Upon hearing this, Tian Ming Zi raised an eyebrow and a smile appeared on his lips.

"In that case, we'll launch a joint attack in three days to annihilate the Starfall Pavilion! But I must remind you, Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yan, Yao Chen are all people the Palace Master specifically requested. After we break through the Starfall Pavilion, these three will belong to my Soul Hall. Don't worry, we won't let them get away with it!"

Blood River Tian Zun nodded, then added.

"These three people are so important that even the Hall Master of the Soul Hall has personally intervened?"

Upon hearing this, Tian Ming Zi's initial displeasure vanished instantly.

He didn't know the exact strength of the Hall of Souls Master, but he knew for sure that the Hall of Souls Master was a genuine Dou Sheng Expert, someone the Tianming Sect couldn't afford to provoke! After all, the strongest member of the Tianming Sect was just an old sect master from back then, whose current strength was only at the Advanced Half-Saint.

The Hall Master was even acting under orders! Blood River Tian Zun would naturally not reveal this to the Tianming Sect, but given his temperament and status, the fact that he was sent out to make contact with forces already proved how much the Hall of Souls Master valued Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yan, Yao Lao!
