Xiao Yan: If I Refine the Ancient Sky Phoenix's Blood Essence, Does That Make Me the Ancestor of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan?

Feeling the warm, smooth texture of the pale white jade bottle in his hand, and the immense energy contained within the ancient Ancient Dragon Essence Blood, Xiao Yan's heart stirred slightly.

This jade bottle appears to be a bone jade bottle.

Considering that it contains the Ancient Dragon Essence Blood, this jade bottle was most likely refined from the remains of the Ancient Void Dragon.

However, this doesn't necessarily mean that the Ancient Void Dragon Clan was using the remains of its own members. After all, given the massive size of the Ancient Void Dragon, if all their remains were refined into these bone jade bottles, there would probably be enough for each member of the Ancient Jade Ancient Void Dragon Clan to have one.

Moreover, the bone jade bottle is reusable; it is only useful when containing ancient Ancient Dragon Essence Blood.

Furthermore, only elders like Zhu Li the Ancient Void Dragon Clan are qualified to refine the Ancient Dragon Essence Blood. Therefore, the amount of Ancient Void Dragon bones consumed in refining the Bone Jade Bottle is actually not that much.

Those clansmen who committed serious crimes and were not qualified to enter the Dragon Tomb to rest in peace naturally became materials for refining the Bone Jade Bottle and the Ancient Dragon Essence Blood after their deaths.

After carefully storing the bone jade bottle containing the Ancient Dragon Essence Blood, Xiao Yan stepped into the void, a silvery-gray luster appearing beneath his feet. In a flash, he appeared at the apex of the Beast Spirit Barrier.

He looked down at the outlines of the two enormous skeletons below.

Even after countless years, these two skeletons still exude a chilling aura, as if silently recounting the earth-shattering battle between Dragon-Phoenix in ancient times.

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, composed himself, and his gaze became serious and focused.

The next moment, he formed hand seals with lightning speed, activating his Clan Mark.

"The Xiao Clan Mark?"

Upon seeing the Clan Mark appear between Xiao Yan's brows, even a composed elder like Elder Zhu Li couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

How is that possible?

He could tell at a glance that Xiao Yan no longer had the Dou Emperor Bloodline. If he had to say, the drop of ancient Ancient Dragon Essence Blood that Zi Yan had injected into Xiao Yan's body when she planted the Dragon Seal on him was far more significant than the Dou Emperor Bloodline in Xiao Yan's body.

But he had seen the Xiao Clan's Clan Mark many times before, so he couldn't possibly be mistaken.

Xiao Yan didn't speak, but activated his Clan Mark and activated the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations with one click. Immediately, Xiao Yan's aura surged to the level of Eight-Star Dou Zun.

To be honest, this effect seems much weaker than the terrifying boost that propelled me directly from Five-Star Dou Zong to Three-Star Dou Zun.

But that's not actually the case.

At the Dou Zun realm, the difference between each star is enormous. In fact, when one approaches Nine-Star Dou Zun, the difference in strength between a single star is often greater than the difference between three stars at the Dou Zong realm.

Furthermore, since Xiao Yan returned the Bone Spirit Cold Flame to Old Yao, without the amplification of this eleventh-ranked flame, the effect of the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations would naturally be somewhat weaker.

Fortunately, even without the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, there is the addition of the Three Thousand Burning Flame. Therefore, in general, the amplification effect of the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations only seems less frightening. However, compared to the Clan Mark, even the Seven-Colored Gold Clan Mark that Xun'er will obtain in the future is probably not as good as Xiao Yan's Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations.

Of course, if Xiao Yan were to activate his Destruction Fire Body now, he could further amplify his combat power. Combined with his powerful physical body and the Heaven Tier Battle Skill inherited from Xiao Xuan, Xiao Yan's current combat power is still terrifyingly strong.

However, the purpose of improving one's cultivation level at this moment is not for combat, but to collect the essence blood and remnant souls from the two giant skeletons below.

Xiao Yan clearly remembered that although there was some essence blood in the two skeletons of the dragon and the phoenix, this essence blood had become extremely fragile after so many years of erosion. If the skeletons were broken open to extract the essence blood, it would probably dissipate and turn into nothingness the moment it came into contact with the outside world.

Therefore, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan chose to transplant bones to refine the essence and blood within them into their bodies.

However, this method is very risky and the process is extremely painful.

As Legendary Fire-Resistant King, Xiao Yan's pain tolerance is naturally beyond question, but he doesn't want to have bird bones transplanted and become a birdman.

At the very least, they should have dragon bones transplanted and become descendants of the dragon!

Of course, these are all the worst options.

After all, Xiao Yan vaguely remembered that the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan seemed to have ten people who had their bones transplanted, but in the end only one or two survived, one of whom was Feng Qing'er.

However, this woman was forever stuck at the Three-Turn Peak Dou Zun, unable to advance any further.

It is clear that while bone transplantation can help a person quickly improve their strength, it also has significant side effects.

For someone with mediocre talent, this might be considered a stroke of luck, but for a genius like Xiao Yan, it's clearly a pile of garbage.

Fortunately, he possessed the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, a rare treasure of heaven and earth, so extracting energy from the two skeletons was not difficult.

However, using the Ancestor Symbol to extract the essence and remnant soul of a Ninth Tier magical beast in its lifetime would be very taxing for Xiao Yan. Therefore, he needed to use the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations to improve his cultivation level so that he could more safely support himself in completing the extraction.

"From peak two-star Dou Zun to Eight-Star Dou Zun?"

Is that correct?

Is this reasonable?

Elder Zhu Li was completely dumbfounded.

Such a terrifying increase in Dou Qi is simply too much.

To be honest, even relying on the power of the Dou Emperor Bloodline to activate the Clan Mark, it would be difficult to achieve the terrifying boost that Xiao Yan has now.

It's important to understand that in the normal storyline, after Xiao Yan, at the Eight-Star Dou Zun Peak, activated his Clan Mark, he could only reach around the Peak Two-Turn Dou Venerate.

However, Xiao Yan, who no longer possesses the Dou Emperor Bloodline, can directly advance to a realm of about five stars. It has to be said that the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations is still very suitable for Xiao Yan in his current state.

At this moment, Xiao Yan released the soul power within his body like a tidal wave, directly targeting the Ancient Sky Phoenix.

The powerful soul force of the Late Spirit Realm cultivator poured out, enveloping the remains of the Ancient Sky Phoenix, and then peeling it off from the ground.

For a moment, the earth shook violently, but fortunately, the people were not ordinary, and the slight earthquake did not cause any trouble. They just stared at Xiao Yan, wanting to see how he would extract the essence blood of the Ancient Sky Phoenix.

After all, even Mu Qingluan, who was the weakest among them, could see that although there was essence blood in those grayish-white bones, it would be no easy task to extract it intact!

As the skeleton of the Ancient Sky Phoenix ascended into the sky, as if sensing a threat, the space around the skeleton trembled violently. Then, a golden light appeared on the head of the Ancient Sky Phoenix skeleton!

Immediately afterwards, a phoenix cry resounded through the heavens, and a desolate aura from ancient times spread out!

Under this aura, apart from Elder Zhu Li, the fighting Dou Qi circulating within everyone else's bodies suddenly became sluggish.

"This is the remnant soul aura of Ancient Sky Phoenix!"

Elder Zhu Li's expression changed, clearly not expecting that after so many years, the remnant soul of the Ancient Sky Phoenix would still possess such immense power.

"Your Highness, should we summon the ancestral Ancestral Soul of our clan to help Elder Xiao?"

Elder Zhu Li reminded him in a deep voice.

"Don't rush. Although the Ancient Sky Phoenix, once it reaches the Ninth Tier magical beast realm, is like my Ancient Void Dragon Clan, where the soul is the body and the body is the soul, after so many years, all that's left of the Ancient Sky Phoenix is a pile of bone fragments. No matter how powerful its remnant soul is, it can't compare to Xiao Yan now."

At this moment, Zi Yan was not as impulsive as usual; instead, she was much calmer and spoke with a composed expression.

In essence, all of this boils down to one sentence.

She believed in Xiao Yan's abilities!

And Xiao Yan clearly did not disappoint her.

"The remnant soul of Ancient Sky Phoenix! How wonderful!"

In mid-air, gazing at the bird skeleton enveloped in golden light, from which one could vaguely discern the phantom of the Ancient Sky Phoenix, Xiao Yan indeed grinned.

If we could refine the remnant soul of this Ancient Sky Phoenix into the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, it would surely promote the further enhancement of the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire!

Unfortunately, Xiao Yan cannot mess with the remnant soul of the Ancient Void Dragon.

But don't panic, we still have the North Dragon King, West Dragon King, and South Dragon King as material!

Xiao Yan wasn't in a hurry.

Moreover, Xiao Yan, who possesses the Fallen Heart Flame, is least afraid of soul entities!

Hehehe!

"Devouring Ancestral Symbol"

Xiao Yan called out softly, and black light patterns appeared between his brows. Then, as if they came to life, they detached from his brows and transformed into a black talisman above his head.

As soon as the talisman appeared, it twisted into a black hole in everyone's vision, emitting a Devouring Power that even swallowed the surrounding light!

"This is?"

Elder Zhu Li Zhuli boasted that in all his years of life, what treasures hadn't he seen?

But he had never seen these ancient runes, which were filled with Devouring Power, before.

In fact, if the rune hadn't appeared between Xiao Yan's eyebrows, he wouldn't have been able to tell that it was a rune, and would have just thought it was a black hole.

At the same time, the Ancient Sky Phoenix let out a high-pitched cry and charged straight towards Xiao Yan.

However, with the Devouring Power protecting him, Xiao Yan was no longer affected by the Dou Qi of the Ancient Sky Phoenix.

The whites of Xiao Yan's eyes gradually disappeared, and his eyes became dark and deep, like two tiny black holes.

He stretched out his palm, facing the Ancient Sky Phoenix in the distance, and suddenly clenched it.

Bang!

As Xiao Yan clenched his fist, the Devouring Ancestral Symbol above his head exploded, and countless black lines, like a torrential rain, swept out and enveloped the entire body of the Ancient Sky Phoenix.

Where the black lines swept across, faint black trails briefly appeared. These were visual remnants left behind after the Devouring Power had absorbed everything in that area, including light.

What terrifying Devouring Power!

Elder Zhu Li contracted.

With his keen eye, it wasn't hard to see that this ancient and strange rune, radiating Devouring Power, was definitely a rare treasure of heaven and earth, no less than Heavenly Flames. In fact, he felt that this thing could be compared with the Nihility Devouring Flame, which was ranked second on the legendary Heavenly Flame Ranking!

Even in terms of the Devouring Power, this ancient and strange rune is purer!

Swish, swish, swish!

After the countless black lines landed on the Ancient Sky Phoenix, they immediately clung to it like a malignant tumor, frantically devouring the remnant soul of the Ancient Sky Phoenix.

These remnant souls will not be directly refined, but will be sealed inside the Devouring Ancestral Symbol for the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire to devour and refine.

In the blink of an eye, the Ancient Sky Phoenix appeared before Xiao Yan with its outstanding speed; however, it could no longer advance any further.

Because at this moment, the originally golden and dazzling White Bone Golden Phoenix was now covered with black spots, and the thin black lines had thickened at some point, turning into black chains that firmly locked it less than three feet away from Xiao Yan.

The mere three feet was an insurmountable chasm for this Ancient Sky Phoenix, one that it could never cross.

"The Devouring Realm!"

As Xiao Yan's hand seals changed, a huge black hole appeared above and below the Ancient Sky Phoenix's head, as well as in all directions. After the six black holes appeared, a terrifying Devouring Power began to tear at the Ancient Sky Phoenix's soul from six directions.

A mournful cry began to echo throughout the land.

In less than three minutes, the remnant soul of the Ancient Sky Phoenix was completely torn apart and devoured by the Devouring Ancestral Symbol.

Immediately, the six black holes converged towards the center, quickly overlapping and continuing to move towards the center point.

When all six black holes converged at the center point, they collapsed instantly, transforming from six enormous black holes into a fist-sized black sphere. This sphere flew into Xiao Yan's palm, then directly entered his body and disappeared.

Even using the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, it would take a considerable amount of time to refine the Heavenly Phoenix Blood Essence of the Ancient Sky Phoenix from its remains.

However, Xiao Yan was in no hurry; he could wait patiently.

As for the skeleton, it appeared to have turned grayish-white due to the loss of energy, but Xiao Yan planned to refine it properly and use the Heavenly Goose Nine-Travel Wings technique to create his own Flying Dou Technique.

Anyway, he has already reached the Dou Zun, obtained the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, and has now made contact with the Ancient Void Dragon Clan. He is not afraid of the threat from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan at all.

Moreover, once he refines the Heavenly Phoenix Blood Essence, in terms of the purity of his bloodline, even those members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan might not be able to compare to him.

He'll be the ancestor of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan then!

Perhaps they can even fool the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.

Hmm, that woman Feng Qing'er isn't very bright. If we have the chance to meet her, we might as well try to fool her for a bit!

Having solved the problem of the Ancient Sky Phoenix, Xiao Yan was finally able to turn his attention to the remains of the Ancient Void Dragon.

He couldn't be so presumptuous in dealing with the remains of the ancestors of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan.

We need to adopt a gentler approach.

He slowly descended, finally landing on the forehead of the Ancient Void Dragon skeleton.

Using the same old trick, he used his soul power to peel it from the crimson sand and manipulated it to float in the air, where it lingered.

Its appearance was exactly the same as the Three Thousand Burning Flame that once occupied the Danta Star Domain.

Immediately, Xiao Yan reached out and gently pressed his hand on the head of the skeletal dragon.

However, before Xiao Yan could activate the power of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol to extract the essence and blood from its body, purple light appeared in the dragon's head and then rapidly spread, directly enveloping Xiao Yan's entire body!
