After enjoying the banquet meticulously prepared by the Han Family, Xiao Yan and his group did not linger any longer.

Han Chi personally escorted them to the Space Wormhole Plaza in Tianbei City. Before parting, he pulled Xiao Yan aside and whispered a few words of advice, mainly asking Xiao Yan to be careful while he was away and to take good care of Han Yue and Han Xue.

"Uncle, don't worry, Yue'er and Xue'er are safe in Danta. I will come back as soon as possible."

Xiao Yan solemnly agreed.

"Alright, alright, have a safe journey!"

Han Chi nodded repeatedly, watching Xiao Yan and the other four step into the entrance of the Space Wormhole that emitted a silver light.

Light flashed by within the Space Wormhole. Compared to the private passages constructed by Venerable Skyfire, these public wormholes were more stable, and their locations were more precise than any Space Channel created at will.

The journey to the Heavenly Star Mountain Range in the Southern Region is long and arduous. Even traveling through a wormhole from the Northern Region would take at least twenty days.

Inside the wormhole, the Space Ship sailed smoothly.

Queen Medusa closed her eyes to cultivate, while Xiao Yi Xian took out a scroll of Poison Scripture and quietly read it.

Zi Yan reverted to her little girl form, listlessly lying on Xiao Yan's back, not doing anything, just enjoying being close to him.

Venerable Skyfire continued to compress his Dou Qi little by little, advancing towards the third stage of the realm.

Xiao Yan's Three Thousand Lightning Fire Body sat at the bow of the ship, responsible for controlling the direction of the Space Ship and dealing with any potential Spatial Turbulence.

Xiao Yan himself sat cross-legged, focusing his mind on his body and carefully sensing his current state.

Although the cultivation level of Two-Star Peak Dou Zun is extremely stable, the strength has increased dramatically, and it is unlikely that there will be any further breakthroughs in cultivation level in the short term.

After the initial success, I was caught up in the aftereffects of the fusion of Heavenly Flames and was too busy exploring the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth with Xiao Yi Xian. Now, upon closer inspection, I can see that the spirituality of this Six-Harmony Heaven-Annihilating Flame is much higher than that of the Azure Green Lotus Formless Flame I once possessed.

Although he is not yet able to generate a spirit of Heavenly Flames, it has allowed him to control it more effectively.

Furthermore, after the tug-of-war with the Three Thousand Burning Flame, Xiao Yan's soul power had already reached the peak of the Mid-Stage Spirit Realm. After absorbing it and greatly increasing his strength, he directly broke through to the Late Spirit Realm. In addition, with the Devouring Ancestral Symbol guarding his soul sea, he was not afraid even when facing some seniors with the Heavenly Realm soul power.

Currently, he has no clue how to break through to the Heavenly Realm in terms of soul power, so it is unlikely that he can break through to the Ninth-Grade Alchemist realm in the short term. This is probably the biggest bottleneck that Xiao Yan has encountered since he started practicing Alchemy.

After all, compared to the previous Alchemy who reached the level of Seventh-Tier Alchemist in just five years, it has been almost two years and he is still stuck at the level of Eighth-Grade Alchemist, which is indeed a bit slow.

However, this is only something Xiao Yan puts pressure on himself. If those who truly practice Alchemy knew what Xiao Yan was thinking, they would probably be so angry about Versailles's remarks that they would all come after him to kill him.

If this is considered slow, then wouldn't all those alchemists who never even reach the Seventh-Grade rank in their entire lives be considered useless good-for-nothings?

It should be noted that even among the Yao Clan, who highly revere Alchemy, there is probably no one who can compare to Xiao Yan. Even Yao Ling, who had reached the level of Tier 9 Golden Pill Core alchemist in her previous life, does not possess such monstrous Yao Tian as Xiao Yan in this second life.

Because her soul power couldn't keep up.

But Xiao Yan is different; he didn't just turn it on, he didn't turn it off at all.

A seventeen-year-old Dou Zun expert and High Eighth-Grade Alchemist —not to mention the younger generation, even a large number of the older generation would be instantly killed in front of Xiao Yan.

However, now was clearly not the time to practice Alchemy. After thinking for a long time, Xiao Yan decided to ask the Master of Devouring for advice on the use of the Ancestor Symbol and the techniques of a Symbol Master.

Compared to the Dou Qi Continent, where many traditions have been lost and even soul Dou Technique have become extremely rare, the talisman master system of the Tianxuan Continent is much more prosperous.

Rune masters can condense the Yuan Power of heaven and earth into unique runes and inscribe them onto objects. These runes, due to their different structures, possess different abilities.

Although they are not the same world, they are both ultimately a kind of utilization of the energy of heaven and earth. Therefore, after some guidance from the Master of Devouring, Xiao Yan had a preliminary idea.

He intends to reforge the Heavy Profound Ruler with Heavenly Flames and inscribe runes related to Devouring Ancestral Symbol and the Heavenly Flames on it.

In this way, on its already solid foundation, it can increase its Devouring Power to absorb and neutralize the opponent's attacks; it can also increase the explosive power of its Heavenly Flames on its heavy foundation, thus enhancing its own attack.

In this way, Xiao Yan no longer has to worry about his Heavy Profound Ruler getting a palm print from some trash like the Zhai Xing Old Dog.

Furthermore, considering that after advancing to the Dou Zun realm, Xiao Yan has reached the level of the Sheng Xuan realm in the Tian Xuan Continent, although he cannot fully unleash the power of the Ancestral Symbol, he can already use some special methods of devouring the Ancestral Symbol.

Therefore, Xiao Yan spent those twenty days traveling in a very fulfilling way. It wasn't until the Three Thousand Lightning Fire Body came to wake him up that he came back to his senses from deep cultivation. He then put the clone that had been his driver into his body, and immediately took control of the Space Ship to fly out of the Space Wormhole.

Of course, exiting the Space Wormhole didn't mean they had arrived at their destination. It took them another two and a half days of flying before they finally reached the outer edge of the Heavenly Star Mountain Range.

To be honest, if Xiao Yan hadn't obtained the map of Central Plains from Xuan Yi, it wouldn't have been easy for him to reach the Heavenly Star Mountain Range so quickly.

However, once they arrived, the map didn't indicate where the Starfall Pavilion was located. Although with Venerable Skyfire's current strength, he could find the Starfall Pavilion and forcibly break through its Starfall Pavilion Starfall Grand Formation, this was Xiao Yan's own territory, so there was really no need to do that.

Therefore, Xiao Yan simply took out the jade piece given to him by Venerable Feng and crushed it.

About twenty minutes later, the space in front of everyone distorted, and Venerable Feng's figure emerged from it.

"Uncle Feng."

Xiao Yan greeted him with a cupped-hand salute and a smile.

"Haha, Junior Nephew Xiao, it's been a long time! How is your master?"

Venerable Feng still thinks about his Brother Chen.

"Don't worry, Uncle-Master. My teacher and his wife are now living a harmonious life. Although they don't have a physical body, they are quite comfortable."

Hearing Xiao Yan say this, Venerable Feng nodded with a sigh, then smiled and looked at the others.

He had already met Queen Medusa, Zi Yan, and Venerable Skyfire Danta, so he smiled and nodded to them. As for Xiao Yi Xian, although he had never met her before, he could tell at a glance that this white-clad woman, whose strength was no weaker than his own, was obviously also his nephew's woman.

Wow, what a lucky guy!

However, he wasn't particularly interested in women, so after a brief exchange of pleasantries, he led the group and sped into the mountains.

As they ventured deeper into the forest, Xiao Yan and his group witnessed the Starfall Grand Formation of the Starfall Pavilion. This naturally formed array caught the eye of even a being of the Master of Devouring's caliber, who promptly offered some ideas on how to strengthen it.

It just goes to show how versatile the older generation was; they really knew everything!

Venerable Feng also gave Xiao Yan a piece of the ancient Ancient Jade, while the others only received jade tokens that allowed them to enter the formation.

Then, Venerable Feng opened the portal of the grand formation and led everyone into the Starfall Pavilion.

Xiao Yan and the others only felt a blur before their eyes, and the world before them suddenly changed as if the stars had shifted.

What was once an endless forest has now transformed into a towering mountain peak. On the peak, some ancient buildings can be vaguely seen. In terms of how well they have secluded themselves from the world, they can even rival the powerful sects like Burning Flame Valley, whose ancestors once had Peak Dou Sheng expert.

"Strictly speaking, this is actually a space constructed from meteorite energy, roughly the size of a city, and cannot compare to the vast spaces constructed by Dou Sheng Expert." Venerable Feng didn't shy away from the topic, smiling as he introduced it to everyone. "However, because it is naturally formed, its concealment is extremely high. Even most Dou Zun expert flying through here would find it difficult to detect its mysteries."

Upon hearing this, everyone marveled, and even Venerable Skyfire couldn't help but nod, because he wouldn't have discovered the secrets of this place if he hadn't deliberately investigated.

Only Zi Yan pouted slightly. Her true form was the Ancient Void Dragon, and with a single glance, she could see that there was more to this place than met the eye. However, since this was Xiao Yan's uncle-master, and she wasn't that familiar with this Venerable Feng, she couldn't be as casual as she had been with Great Elder Su Qian in the Inner Academy. Therefore, she didn't expose him.

"Bah!"

At this moment, a dozen or so huge white cranes suddenly flew out from the distant mountain peaks. On the cranes stood some figures. The leader, a beautiful figure in cyan, Dou Qi Transformation Wings and flashed over, appearing in front of everyone.

It was none other than Xiao Yan's junior sister Mu Qingluan.

"Teacher."

Upon seeing that the leader was Venerable Feng, Mu Qingluan relaxed and waved her hand to send the white cranes circling in the air behind her back.

Before Venerable Feng could say anything, Mu Qingluan spotted Xiao Yan behind him and excitedly flew over to hug Xiao Yan.

"Senior brother! You're here too! I've missed you so much!"

Mu Qingluan said with a charming smile.

"Haha, Qingluan is still so cute. I won't introduce you to Medusa Sister, Zi Yan, and Venerable Skyfire, as you already know them from last time. This is Xiao Yi Xian; she, like your Medusa Sister, is my fiancée."

Xiao Yan ruffled Mu Qingluan's soft, smooth hair and introduced her to her with a smile.

This time, he didn't introduce Xiao Yi Xian as a friend or girlfriend. Although they weren't engaged yet, he had already taken advantage of her, so they were practically like a fiancée.

"Greetings, Xiao Yi Xian!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingluan immediately greeted Xiao Yi Xian obediently.

"Hello, Sister Qingluan."

Xiao Yi Xian had long known that Mu Qingluan, who seemed to be her junior sister, actually harbored ill intentions towards her senior brother.

As for why I know?

It's because of Zi Yan, of course!

After all, Zi Yan and Xiao Yan were only nominally senior and junior classmates, and their relationship was like that of brother and sister. In reality, she gradually began to harbor ulterior motives, so she saw through Mu Qingluan's problem at a glance.

"Haha, alright Qingluan, this isn't the place to talk. Let's go back to the pavilion and chat."

Venerable Feng naturally knew that his disciple had taken a liking to this outstanding and charming junior nephew, but he had no objection. His brother Chen was also very attractive to women back then, but unfortunately he was not as insightful as Xiao Yan. His mind was full of things like fighting for his honor and returning to the Yao Clan to hold his head high. He seemed to like freedom, but in reality, he was bound by inner shackles, and in the end, he almost died.

Xiao Yan is different. According to Brother Chen, this kid is destined to clash with the Soul Hall in the future, but he is still so dashing and carefree. He cultivates when he should and flirts with girls when he should, and he is even more at ease.

"Yes, Master."

Naturally, Mu Qingluan would not disobey Venerable Feng's words. She immediately took Xiao Yan's hand affectionately and beckoned her sisters to head to the main hall of the Starfall Pavilion.

As for Venerable Skyfire, it would be better for Venerable Feng to personally entertain a powerhouse of that level.

After all, Venerable Feng had once protected Venerable Skyfire during his resurrection, so he naturally knew that Venerable Wind was a senior figure to him, and Venerable Heavenly Fire's strength after his resurrection was equally awe-inspiring.

The group arrived at the main hall and took their seats according to their status as guests and hosts.

After personally serving tea to everyone, Mu Qingluan stood behind Xiao Yan.

There were actually seats available inside, but she wanted to be closer to Xiao Yan.

She held this powerful senior brother in the highest esteem and admiration.

The image of Xiao Yan refining Eighth-Grade Pill with great enthusiasm left an indelible impression on her.

Especially the sight of him facing the thunder alone, using his powerful physical strength to withstand the might of the heavenly lightning, stirred her heart!

As a member of the Warcraft family, a powerful physique is also a significant advantage.

It's fair to say that Xiao Yan is her ideal type!

Feng Xian took a sip of tea, looked at Xiao Yan, and asked:

"Xiao Yan, you've come here for more than just to visit this old man, haven't you? Could it be for the Dou Saint Ruins in the Beast Domain that you mentioned before?"

Because this Dou Saint Ruins are related to Old Yao's resurrection, Venerable Feng is extremely concerned about it. He even personally went to explore some places that were suspected to Dou Saint Ruins, but unfortunately, he didn't find much of a breakthrough.

Xiao Yan nodded upon hearing this, his face showing anticipation:

"Indeed. I wonder if Uncle Feng has made any progress in the past year or so. As you know, the only thing missing for the teacher's resurrection is a suitable physical body. The body of the Dou Sheng in the Dou Saint Ruins is the most suitable."

However, Venerable Feng gave a wry smile and said with some helplessness:

"Alas, my nephew, you are unaware of the fact that the Beast Domain is a mixed bag. Although the Starfall Pavilion's operations in the Beast Domain have not been greatly hindered due to the Azure Phoenix, the Dou Saint Ruins are indeed difficult to find."

This matter is too important to Brother Chen, and I can't reveal this information to everyone in the Beast Domain, which would only lead to a search. Therefore, we still haven't found any trace of the Dou Saint Ruins."

Xiao Yan's expression tightened slightly upon hearing this. Actually, he didn't think it mattered if it got out. With an extraordinary individual like Venerable Skyfire accompanying them, even the Soul Hall would have to send four Heavenly Venerable-level experts to have any chance of dealing with their group. As for the other magical beast families...

Well, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan is indeed difficult to deal with. It wouldn't be good if they brought in a Half-Saint.

"In that case, Uncle-Master, please recall all your men. I was inconsiderate in this matter."
