Clearly, although Xiao Shi had figured out that he was entitled to a share of the quasi-Six-Turn Quenching Liquid Lingxiao Pavilion was refining, he still wanted to enter the valley after the Jade Devouring Sky Python completed its Beast Soul inheritance and claim some quasi-Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures. That way, he could use the quasi-Six-Turn Quenching Liquid with a clear conscience.
After hearing the Young Leader's words, Xiao Shi muttered to himself, "So the Beast Soul inheritance takes this long, and so many things can happen. I wonder which reason stopped that Jade Devouring Sky Python from completing its inheritance. If it's the first or third possibility, that's not so bad. But if the Beast Soul it has to fuse with is simply too powerful, then that'll be a problem. After all, the stronger the Beast Soul, the greater the benefits it'll gain from fusing with it."
"I'm not sure which possibility it is, either. We'll only know once it completes the Beast Soul inheritance," the Young Leader said. Then he changed tack. "But you don't need to dwell on it. Your Bloodline Power is already very strong. Even without receiving the Beast Soul inheritance, you're no weaker than that Jade Devouring Sky Python. What's more, your Small World is far larger than its own or that Heaven-Devouring Hou's, so your Sacred Beast Seven-Style Severing Slash is more powerful, too. In other words, they're no match for you."
The larger the Small World, the more Origin Power an Ancient Divine Beast could command, and the greater the power of its secret arts. This was especially true of a secret art like the Sacred Beast Seven-Style Severing Slash, which required vast amounts of Origin Power. In other words, Xiao Shi would wield the same secret art more powerfully than the Jade Devouring
