Life and Death Heavenly Talisman
"If she doesn't come out for three months, the flowers of me, Sister Cai Lin, Sister Xiao Yi Xian, Qing Lian and I will wither away."
The four women flashed and appeared beside Xiao Yuan, with Zi Yan speaking first.
"I apologize for keeping you waiting. However, my cultivation is not yet complete. I plan to go to the Void Thunder Pool. Before that, Cai Lin, I will send you to the Nine Nether Yellow Springs for seclusion."
Although Xiao Yuan had broken through to the Two Star Dou Sheng, Xiao Yuan was still somewhat dissatisfied with his current Dou Qi cultivation.
He had endured so many years of hardship to finally reach this level of cultivation, but compared to a powerhouse like the Hun Tiandi, Xiao Yuan was still at a disadvantage.
The best solution right now is actually to break through to the Divine Palace Realm.
However, Xiao Yuan had no clue how to break through the Divine Palace.
Since the soul realm cannot be broken through for the time being, why not try to improve the Dou Qi cultivation?
Actually, it's not too difficult for him to improve his Dou Qi cultivation now.
But it's not that simple either.
energy.
He needs a lot of energy.
After mastering the Six Qi Transformations, theoretically, he only needs enough energy to advance to the Dou Di.
As for Source Qi, it's hard to say whether Xiao Yuan could advance to Dou Di without Source Qi.
But he was confident that he could at least reach the level of Half-Emperor.
With his foundation in Dou Qi, if he were to truly reach the level of Half-Emperor, his combat power would probably be comparable to that of Dou Di.
When the time comes, wiping out the Soul Clan will be a piece of cake.
As for where to find a large amount of energy... the Void Thunder Pool!
Beside the Nine Nether Yellow Springs, Xiao Yuan, dressed in white, held Cai Lin's hand and gazed at the chilling Nine Nether Yellow Springs, saying softly, "The yin and cold power contained in the Nine Nether Yellow Springs is enough to kill ordinary experts, but the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python is inherently very yin and cold. I'm afraid only you two can absorb its energy without restraint."
"The chilling power within the Nine Nether Yellow Springs is extraordinary. Even the experts of the Nine Netherworld Python Tribe dare not venture deep into it, but for me, it is not a major problem."
Upon hearing this, Cai Lin's lips curled into a seductive smile, her words revealing a rather arrogant air. As the only Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python in the world, she had the right to look down upon all other snake-like magical beasts.
Xiao Yuan smiled, clenched his fist, and a jade bottle appeared in his palm. Inside the jade bottle, swirling Pill Cloud emanated an extremely powerful energy fluctuation.
"This is the Bodhi Saint-Entry Pill, Ninth Grade Treasure Pill. It can greatly increase the success rate of advancing to the Dou Sheng. If you swallow it at the crucial moment, you will surely succeed."
Xiao Yuan handed the Cai Lin and said with a smile.
Cai Lin nodded slightly, stretched out her jade hand, and took the cool jade bottle.
"This cultivation will take quite a while. After you go in, I will set up a barrier so that no one can disturb you unless Nine Star Dou Sheng comes in person. Yao Ming has also sent people to protect you. Everything is arranged. I will come to pick you up after you come out of seclusion."
Xiao Yuan gazed at Cai Lin's alluring and beautiful face and said earnestly.
Cai Lin bottle in her hand. She knew that Xiao Yuan would be taking Xiao Yan to compete for the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame. Although she knew that Xiao Yuan was now a top expert in the entire continent, she still felt Cai Lin little regretful that she couldn't accompany him. Although she didn't say anything, a trace of tenderness flashed in her long, narrow eyes that exuded a charming aura. She slowly stepped forward and gently pressed her red lips to Xiao Yuan's lips.
Feeling the sudden softness, Xiao Yuan was momentarily stunned. Then, his arms reflexively wrapped around Cai Lin as soft as if it had no bones. It was a real temptation, a bewitching snake waist that swayed gently, with a bewitching feeling that could charm all living beings.
While Xiao Yuan was lost in thought over the softness, the beauty in his arms turned her head slightly, and a soft voice reached his ears.
"After we deal with the Soul Clan, will you come with me back to the Snake-People Tribe?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan was taken aback. When he came to his senses, he saw a gentle smile suddenly curving up on Cai Lin's Cai Lin face.
"Good."
Xiao Yuan nodded emphatically.
Seeing this, Cai Lin smiled sweetly, her delicate body swayed, and she transformed into an enormous Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python. With a flick of her giant tail, she plunged into the Nine Nether Yellow Springs without looking back, splashing up a terrifying wave.
"Gurgle!"
After the Cai Lin entered the Nine Nether Yellow Springs, the lake water immediately seemed to boil, bubbling up countless bubbles. Xiao Yuan could feel that the energy of the entire Nine Nether Yellow Springs was being disturbed at this moment. Uh... Xiao Yuan recalled the enormous Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python with its Seven-Colored Snake Scale exuding a cold aura, and his thoughts suddenly drifted away.
Having cultivated the Azure Sky Dragon Transformation Art, Xiao Yuan's transformation into the Ancient Void Dragon was merely a matter of a thought.
It seems like I can unlock some new poses.
"Boom!"
In the pitch-black Void Space, a series of low rumbles of thunder suddenly echoed from afar. Turning one's gaze, one could see that at the end of the darkness, a brilliant silver light shone brightly, and a massive bolt of lightning, like a giant dragon, roared wildly.
After sending Cai Lin into seclusion, Xiao Yuan's figure hovered in mid-air, his gaze fixed on the enormous Thunder Pool before him. This was the place where he had first come here, and it was here that he first met the Dean of the Inner Academy, Mang Tianchi, a member of the Thunder Clan.
Back then, the latter was chased around by some Black Demon Lightning, but now, Xiao Yuan's target is precisely those Black Demon Lightning that chased Mang Tianchi so hard they were running for their lives.
With his dark eyes fixed on the raging lightning in the Void Thunder Pool, Xiao Yuan smiled faintly and flew in.
Back then, Xiao Yuan had to be extremely careful when entering the Void Thunder Pool, fearing that he would attract a barrage of lightning. But now, facing this terrifying and strange region, he appeared quite composed. His figure swept across the Thunder Pool unhurriedly. The huge, wildly flashing lightning would suddenly stop when it was still dozens of feet away from his body, and then they would dodge away in a panic. Within that not-so-strong body, they instinctively sensed a rather terrifying presence.
Along the way, Xiao Yuan made no stops and headed straight for the deepest part of the Void Thunder Pool. With the protection of the Heavenly Flames, the thunder power here did not dare to rush forward. It seems that the Heavenly Flames in his body has indeed been cultivated to a great degree.
The Void Thunder Pool was extremely vast, but with Xiao Yuan's speed, he approached its depths in less than ten minutes.
"No wonder even Dean Mang Tianchi had to turn tail and flee back then."
Upon reaching the depths, as Xiao Yuan gazed at the suddenly dimmed environment and raised his eyes to stare at the swarms of black lightning that resembled a dark dragon slowly writhing in the distance, even with his current strength, his expression couldn't help but become solemn.
"Black Demon Lightning"
Xiao Yuan stopped outside the area of black lightning, his gaze fixed on the clusters of black lightning bolts. A look of amazement flashed across his eyes. Who would have thought that the Black Demon Lightning, which could only be attracted by refining Rank 9 Pill, could exist in such a terrifying quantity here? Indeed, there are many wonders in this world.
Xiao Yuan was no stranger to this Black Demon Lightning; he had summoned it before when refining pills in the Little Pill Tower. However, compared to the Black Demon Lightning deep within this Void Thunder Pool, that bolt was undoubtedly insignificant. Fortunately, Xiao Yuan's strength was now far greater than before; otherwise, upon seeing such a quantity of Black Demon Lightning, he would have had no choice but to flee. "The power of heaven and earth is truly unpredictable."
However, with his powerful physical body now that he Dragon-Phoenix Body, he naturally had no fear of any thunder pool turmoil. He immediately rushed into the deepest part, and then changed the hand seals, unleashing a powerful wave that swept around the surroundings.
Within the sea of consciousness, a talisman, its black and white energy flowing and faintly revealing astonishing fluctuations of life and death energy, was slowly emerging.
His Natal Talisman the Life and Death Heavenly Talisman! In his second life, as the controller of the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol, and a super strong person who had survived Second Samsara Tribulation, Xiao Yuan's control over the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol had basically reached the point of oneness with the human. Even without the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol, he could still be called Humanoid Ancestral Symbol. It was just that some extremely powerful killing moves still needed to be used with the power of the Ancestral Talisman.
Having failed to break through to the Divine Palace Realm, Xiao Yuan turned his attention to the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol.
Based on the Yin Yang Dual Flames and supplemented by the Emperor Realm Soul, Xiao Yuan condensed his own Natal Talisman, the Life and Death Heavenly Talisman.
Although it cannot compare to the Ancestral Symbol, it can still be considered the number one symbol below the Ancestral Symbol.
With the power of the Life and Death Heavenly Talisman, Xiao Yuan is a terrifyingly leading figure in the entire Douqi Continent when it comes to the path of life and death.
The Life and Death Heavenly Talisman hovered two centimeters away from Xiao Yuan's brow, transforming into black and white energy that enveloped Xiao Yuan's body.
Immediately afterwards, golden flames surged from his body, blazing so brightly that the void itself seemed to distort. The surrounding Black Demon Lightning was instantly agitated and surged toward Xiao Yuan's body in a frenzy.
The Life and Death Heavenly Talisman protects the body, Heavenly Flames tempers the energy of the Black Demon Lightning, making it easier to absorb.
Thus, streams of exceptionally pure energy entered his body and spread throughout his limbs and bones. Moreover, as this pure energy flowed through his meridians and muscles, it brought about a subtle tingling sensation. A wisp of energy, like an electric current, quietly permeated his body, causing all of Xiao Yuan's organs to burst forth with an exceptionally comfortable and joyful feeling in that instant.
"Ah, that feels good!"
Xiao Yuan revealed a look of contentment, slowly closed his eyes, and began to absorb and refine the Black Demon Lightning with all his might.
As he closed his eyes and focused his mind, Xiao Yuan seemed to be able to clearly hear the countless cells in his body making a sound of longing and joy when those energies entered his body. The energy of just one Black Demon Lightning bolt was enough to replace a whole day of Xiao Yuan's cultivation!
"If I could devour and absorb all the Black Demon Lightning here, my strength would probably increase even more!"
With his eyes slightly narrowed, a sliver of light lingered on the Black Demon Lightning permeating the depths of the Void Thunder Pool. A faint smile appeared on Xiao Yuan's lips. Then, he closed his eyes completely and began to refine and absorb the powerful energy surging from his body at an increasingly rapid pace! Deep within the tranquil Void Thunder Pool, thunder now roars incessantly. Countless black lightning bolts, resembling giant pythons, howl and surge, their power overwhelming and unstoppable. Before such a magnificent spectacle, even Dou Sheng Expert) would feel their own insignificance. Within this sea of black lightning, there exists a vortex-like entity, with countless black lightning bolts swirling and coiling, completely surrounding it. However, no matter how fiercely they impact, the vortex is like a bottomless pit, never filling. No matter how much Black Demon Lightning surges in, it all disappears within the vortex. This devouring force is destined to be long-lasting. Fortunately, after countless years of evolution, the Void Thunder Pool contains a terrifyingly large number of lightning bolts; otherwise, it might have truly been swallowed up by this black hole-like entity in a short time.
The Void Thunder Pool is hidden in the vast and endless Void Space, rarely visited by people. Even some Dou Sheng Expert occasionally venture here dare not enter easily. Therefore, without any disturbance, Xiao Yuan's cultivation progressed exceptionally smoothly.
Time flies by during cultivation; a month passes in the blink of an eye.
In just one month, Xiao Yuan's strength was raised to the late stage of the Two Star Dou Sheng. Unfortunately, it seemed that Xiao Yuan's body had developed some resistance to the Black Demon Lightning, and the originally significant improvement became minimal. The Demon Lightning Body was still not fully formed, so he had no choice but to withdraw from his cultivation state.
Opening his eyes, which had been closed for a month, Xiao Yuan's pupils flickered with faint black lightning. As he exhaled, a deep rumble of thunder came from his throat.
"Call"
A stream of energy, carrying a hint of black electricity, emerged from Xiao Yuan's mouth. He stood up, and a series of crisp crackling sounds emanated from his body. A sense of boundless power surged forth, as if a giant dragon lurked within his muscles. With a mere thought, the dragon would rise up and unleash a terrifying destructive force that would leave one speechless. "Unfortunately, I still haven't been able to break through to the Three Star Dou Sheng."
Xiao Yuan briefly sensed his body and then shook his head regretfully. Filling the five increasingly bottomless Qi Mansion was simply too difficult.
"It's time to go."
Xiao Yuan sighed softly, raised his head, and glanced at the Void Thunder Pool again. Just as he was about to turn around, black lightning arcs suddenly appeared on his body.
As the lightning arcs flickered, they all seemed to be heading towards a dark area at the deepest part of the lightning pool.
"Is it the Nine Mysterious Golden Lightning?"
Xiao Yuan seemed to be deep in thought. He remembered that there seemed to be a Nine Mysterious Golden Lightning Dragon in the Thunder Pool that needed to gather its spiritual intelligence.
If handled properly, the Xiao Clan may gain another guardian beast in the future.
After a moment's hesitation, Xiao Yuan decided that he shouldn't let this opportunity slip by, so he started walking slowly toward the dark area.
