Deep within the Ancient Wasteland Region, on the outskirts of an extremely precipitous mountain, Xiao Yan and his group stopped.

"This is where the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python resides."

Nalan Yanran took Xiao Yan's arm and whispered.

Having already exchanged information, Xiao Yan knew that Nalan Yanran had been to this Ancient Wasteland Region before and knew the way, so he brought everyone directly here.

This nameless mountain range is the territory of the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python!

Thick plumes of black mist rose from the mountains, turning the sky completely black.

Within a hundred meters, there were no traces of any ferocious beasts, clearly indicating that this Ancient Heavenly Demon Python was a dominant force in this Ancient Wasteland Region.

Speaking of the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python, it is also an extremely rare mutated ferocious beast. Its bloodline is similar to that of the Ancient Heavenly Snake, but due to its excessive killing instinct and the influence of its ferocious aura on its mind, its intelligence is relatively low, far inferior to snake groups such as the powerful Nine Nether Deep Underworld Python.

But this thing has one advantage: its physical body is strong enough, and its bloodline is pure enough.

It can be used as the body material for Caiyan, the symbiotic sister of Queen Medusa and the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python Cai Yan.

Although Xiao Yan had previously planned to use the remains of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, which might exist beneath the Nine Nether Yellow Springs, as material for Cai Yan's resurrection, it was still uncertain whether such remains actually existed.

Therefore, Xiao Yan's best option is undoubtedly to make more preparations in case of unforeseen circumstances.

Furthermore, the blood of this Ancient Heavenly Demon Python has miraculous effects on tempering the body, and this creature has also spent hundreds of years accumulating Heavenly Demon Blood Pool.

This "experience pool" was created by the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python, who spared no effort to find numerous rare and precious materials with pure energy so that its offspring could grow up quickly.

Not only can it temper the physical body, but it can also provide a considerable amount of energy. Although it is ten years earlier than the "original timeline", the accumulation time of the Heavenly Demon Blood Pool is measured in hundreds of years. The ten years of less accumulation is not that important to Xiao Yan.

His main goal this time was to kill the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python, keep its body as spare material, and put its blood into the Heavenly Demon Blood Pool to fully activate the pool's effects. In this way, Xiao Yan could be considered to be following the strategy guide and perhaps be able to cultivate the third level of the Azure Jade Treasure Body, the Azure Jade Treasure Form!

After all, with Xiao Yan's current physical cultivation, even the adult Ancient Heavenly Demon Python couldn't compare to his physical strength.

This time, the main purpose is to use the energy of the Heavenly Demon Blood Pool to cultivate Dou Technique.

"You all wait here. I'll come in and protect me once I've finished."

Xiao Yan turned around and gave a brief explanation to Yun Yun, Nalan Yanran and her disciple, as well as the elders of the Flower Sect, before flashing into the black giant peak.

No one present objected to Xiao Yan's request to act alone.

Having witnessed Xiao Yan's monstrous physical strength, they all understood one fact: Xiao Yan was essentially a walking, humanoid Eighth Tier magical beast, and was probably only one step away from the Ninth Tier.

Simply put, no magical beast below the Ninth-Turn Peak Dou Zun is a match for Xiao Yan!

As Xiao Yan's figure swept into the area inside the mountain, an extremely piercing screech rang out. Immediately afterward, the entire mountain trembled, and the sound of wind breaking through the air whistled as a black snake tail, hundreds of feet long, carrying terrifying power capable of whipping an ordinary Dou Zun expert, suddenly lashed out from inside the mountain.

"Bang!"

A dark purple light appeared on Xiao Yan's body, and his skin became as translucent as purple jade. He casually raised his arm and easily blocked the attack!

As is well known, under constant pressure, the smaller the area of force application, the greater the pressure.

Although Xiao Yan is now a strong man who is two meters tall, his arms are pitifully small compared to the enormous snake tail that is hundreds of feet long!

In fact, Xiao Yan himself wasn't much larger than a single scale of the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python.

As a result of the reaction force, the black iron-colored snake scales on Xiao Yan's arm that the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python touched burst open!

At the same time, a powerful gust of wind spread out, transforming into a tangible airflow ring that whipped up dust and rippled it outwards.

Hearing the sounds of fighting coming from the mountain peak, Yun Yun and the others also became more serious and tacitly formed a formation to prevent outsiders from passing by and affecting Xiao Yan's work.

However, almost none of the elders of the Flower Sect noticed that Nalan Yanran's positioning was actually in perfect harmony with theirs. Although she seemed to be simply standing next to Yun Yun, she was actually playing a very good supporting role.

Yun Yun, however, was reminded of something by the fragmented memories that flashed through her mind. But she wasn't in a hurry to figure out the situation immediately, because her intuition told her that she would soon find out what was going on.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yan, on the inner side of the mountain, remained unmoved in the seemingly powerless void. Instead, the huge black snake tail was thrown back, and dark red blood seeped out from where the snake scales burst.

"Ha!"

Feeling a dull pain coming from its tail, a hiss suddenly rang out, followed by a terrifyingly violent aura that spread out, and then a jet-black python, more than four hundred feet long, rushed out of the mountain!

This Ancient Heavenly Demon Python has an extremely terrifying appearance, because it is not an ordinary snake face, but rather a huge, grotesque, and twisted human face. Just looking at it is enough to send chills down your spine, which is why this beast is named the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python.

As the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python officially appeared, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and iron-colored energy condensed into black lightning, which looked quite powerful.

A pair of blood-red snake eyes stared at Xiao Yan, filled with violence and murderous intent.

It sensed a powerful pressure emanating from the depths of Xiao Yan's bloodline, a pressure that filled it with fear.

When ordinary magical beasts feel fear, they generally will not attack, but will retreat, submit, or flee.

But this kind of mindless beast obviously just breathes and starts fighting.

From the exchange just now, Xiao Yan had already sensed that this Ancient Heavenly Demon Python possessed the strength of Five-turn Peak Dou Zun, which was not much different from what it would be ten years later.

This is normal, though. For magical beasts of this level, it usually takes decades or even centuries to improve their cultivation.

Ten years is simply not a long time.

Although Xiao Yan hadn't enjoyed a truly exhilarating, hand-to-hand combat in a long time, he didn't intend to waste too much time fighting the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python.

Because he was worried about his Xun'er and the other noble ladies from the Ancient Clans, he could only choose to end the battle quickly.

"Call!"

Xiao Yan gently exhaled a breath of stale air, and then an extremely rich purple-gold luster appeared in his eyes!

An extremely noble and unparalleled powerful pressure erupted from his body, and Xiao Yan's figure visibly expanded, transforming into a purple-gold giant dragon that blotted out the sky, with phoenix wings two hundred feet wide on its back and a body length of six hundred feet!

Xiao Yan - Dragon-Phoenix Form!

The terrifying dragon's might directly caused the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python's eyes to clear somewhat, and its body to become unsteady, causing it to suddenly fall.

It should be noted that, compared to the purity of its bloodline, this Ancient Heavenly Demon Python is far inferior to the Ancient Heavenly Snake, and naturally cannot compare with Xiao Yan, who possesses the bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon Royal Clan and now also has the Dragon-Phoenix Bloodline Phoenix.

Therefore, the sheer power of this overwhelming pressure alone suppressed the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python's combat strength.

After all, the Ancient Void Dragon was already the undisputed Supreme Realm in the Beast World, and the Dragon-Phoenix was the supreme Supreme Realm among the Supreme Realm beings, making them arguably the strongest creatures on the Dou Qi Continent!

Even among the strongest humans of the same level, no one can match the Dragon-Phoenix in combat power.

However, the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python was a ferocious beast after all. After sensing Xiao Yan's terrifying pressure, it became even more ferocious and actually charged directly at Xiao Yan!

Then, Xiao Yan's dragon claw, which transcended space, grabbed its "Achilles' heel."

With Xiao Yan's soul perception, which was far beyond what he could perceive for any magical beast, it was naturally not difficult for him to sense the location of the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python's heart.

In addition, the Ancient Void Dragon possessed an extraordinary talent for manipulating space, and Xiao Yan had a terrifying physical body comparable to Ninth-Turn Peak Dou Zun expert. With just one strike, he had already grasped the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python's fatal spot.

Xiao Yan slowly tightened his dragon claws. The terrifying force directly crushed the heart of the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python, which was protected by scales, muscles, and bones, to the point that it could barely beat and lost its ability to resist.

Xiao Yan's soul power swept out once more, and he quickly located the location of the Heavenly Demon Blood Pool. Holding the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python in his dragon claw, he directly traversed space and arrived above the Heavenly Demon Blood Pool.

The air here reeked of blood, and the surrounding area was littered with bones. Below was a blood pool ten feet wide, filled with scarlet blood, from which a dense energy fluctuation emanated.

Looking down at the pool of blood, Xiao Yan's purple-gold dragon eyes revealed a hint of satisfaction. Then, his dragon claws suddenly exerted force, directly piercing through the flesh of the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python and tearing its heart through!

The excruciating pain and intense weakness caused the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python's body to go limp, hanging precariously in Xiao Yan's dragon claws like a noodle. Its body twitched slightly, and dark red blood gushed from its wounds, falling into the blood pool below.

However, Xiao Yan soon realized that this was still too slow.

Then he slightly raised his other dragon claw, making a grasping motion towards the wound of the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python and pulling it back!

Sucking Palm!

A violent suction force emerged from its claws, directly extracting all the blood from the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python's body, forming a huge blood sphere.

Soon, the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python completely lost its breath. Its body, still warm, was carefully stored by Xiao Yan in his storage Storage Ring.

He then placed the blood of the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python into the blood pool below. Instantly, a powerful energy wave erupted from the pool, causing it to boil and continuously spew out huge blood bubbles.

Xiao Yan transformed back into human form and immediately sent a soul message to Yun Yun, informing them that the matter had been resolved and they could come in.

Soon, figures flew over.

"It was resolved so quickly?"

The Great Elder asked with some curiosity.

"Hmm, just the Five-turn Peak Dou Zun."

Xiao Yan nodded casually.

Upon hearing this, the elders of the Flower Sect fell silent.

If it were them, they would have no choice but to run away when faced with this Ancient Heavenly Demon Python, but Xiao Yan was able to deal with it so easily. He is truly a force to be reckoned with!

"I estimate it will take a day or two, but my aura remains here, so no ferocious beasts will come looking for death. However, just to be on the safe side, I still need you to protect me."

Xiao Yan continued.

"No problem, leave this to us."

Yun Yun smiled and nodded, agreeing.

She naturally knew that Xiao Yan was one of only two Dragon-Phoenix in the world, so it was not unbelievable that he could defeat the Ancient Heavenly Demon Python so quickly. Compared to the shock of the elders of the Flower Sect, she felt more proud.

Her man, though a bit lecherous, was outstanding enough!

Nalan Yanran wasn't worried about Xiao Yan's safety while soaking in the Heavenly Demon Blood Pool. She knew how monstrous his physical body was now; she hadn't even finished refining those things yet!

She needs to make the most of her time to practice.

Nodding to Xiao Yan as a sign of concern for her man, Nalan Yanran then went out to find a place to refine the spiritual liquid within her body.

Yun Yun also led the elders of the Flower Sect to go outside to Yan Protector.

Seeing everyone leave, Xiao Yan immediately took off his clothes and went into the blood pool for a bath.

"Laugh..."

As Xiao Yan fell into the blood pool, the activated blood pool energy found an outlet and poured directly into Xiao Yan's body!

Xiao Yan skillfully summoned Heavenly Flames, forming a dark purple Fire Lotus pedestal beneath him. A spherical flame shield spread out from the Fire Lotus pedestal, enveloping Xiao Yan and refining the energy in the blood pool.

He then activated the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, and a terrifying Devouring Power was released from every part of his body. Under the effect of this terrifying Devouring Power, the blood pool directly formed an energy vortex shaped like a funnel, with Xiao Yan sitting cross-legged at the center of the vortex!

A slight stinging sensation made Xiao Yan feel a little uncomfortable, but that was all.

Xiao Yan could clearly feel the pure energy refined by the Heavenly Flames and the Devouring Ancestral Symbol surging wildly into his body, tempering his skin, muscles, fascia, bones, and internal organs to become increasingly resilient.

Feeling his physical body growing stronger little by little, Xiao Yan began cultivating the Azure Jade Treasure Body with great satisfaction, using this incomparably pure energy to enrich the Azure Jade Treasure Body and thus condense the prototype of the Azure Jade Treasure Form.

At the same time, his Dou Qi also gradually increased during this process!

Xiao Yan was confident that he could at least cultivate the Azure Jade Treasure Form this time, and also raise his Dou Qi realm to the First-Turn Dou Zun Peak.

With the blessing of this Azure Jade Treasure Form, even without the Buddha Fury Fire Lotus, Xiao Yan is confident that he can easily contend with Half-Saint level expert, and even One-Star Dou Saint would have a hard time doing anything to him!
