Creating the Heaven-Swallowing Method! Heavenly Phenomenon!

Time drifted by, and several days passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, Xiao Fan's life followed a simple, repetitive routine.

Every day, he would head to the bustling inn as usual to boast and earn points.

It was only when the sunset cast its final glow that he would leisurely rise and stroll back to the Xiao Clan Back Mountain.

The Xiao Clan Back Mountain, quiet and secluded, was the perfect place for Xiao Fan to deduce his new cultivation technique in solitude.

He immersed himself in the complexities of the technique, and time slipped away rapidly amidst his focus.

Not until night fell and the stars began to twinkle would he drag his slightly weary body back to his room, wash up, and prepare for sleep.

As for Little Doctor Fairy, from some point on, she would sneak into Xiao Fan's room every night under the cover of the dim twilight.

With a pitiful expression always hanging on her fair face, she would whisper, "I can't sleep. Only by staying in your room can I drift off peacefully."

At first, Xiao Fan was somewhat unaccustomed to it, but after several days, he gradually grew used to the little girl's clinginess.

After all, having such a soft, fragrant girl nestled beside him brought a sense of warmth and comfort that he couldn't help but be intoxicated by.

Every night, lulled by the sound of Little Doctor Fairy's gentle breathing, he was able to sleep exceptionally soundly.

On this day, amidst what seemed like an ordinary afternoon, Xiao Fan finally reached the critical moment of his cultivation breakthrough.

His aura surged, and the surrounding air seemed to be stirred by his momentum.

Suddenly, a startling phenomenon appeared in the sky as a deep, pitch-black hole slowly emerged.

It was like a mysterious giant beast opening its maw, greedily absorbing the surrounding light as if it intended to swallow the very energy of the world.

This strange sight naturally caught the attention of Yao Lao.

Yao Lao had been in the middle of guiding Xiao Yan's cultivation.

Suddenly, his expression turned stern, and he looked up with gravity toward the mysterious black hole in the sky.

"That is..."

Noticing Yao Lao's unusual reaction, Xiao Yan looked at his master in confusion and asked, "What is it?"

Yao Lao's gaze remained fixed on the black hole in the sky as he said slowly, "That is at least the manifestation of a Heaven-tier technique..."

"Heaven-tier?"

Hearing this term, Xiao Yan's eyes widened in shock.

That was the legendary Heaven-tier technique of the Dou Qi Continent!

"Yes... because Earth-tier techniques could never produce such a massive display of power..."

Yao Lao frowned slightly, his eyes revealing a trace of surprise and solemnity.

Xiao Yan's heart skipped a beat, and the image of Xiao Fan instantly flashed through his mind. He gasped, "Hiss... is this Brother Fan's doing?"

Yao Lao nodded slightly, a complex look flashing in his eyes as he said, "It must be. In this entire Xiao Clan, only he possesses the ability to create such an astonishing disturbance."

In Yao Lao's view, Xiao Fan was even more mysterious and unfathomable than the Eight Ancient Clans.

Listening to Yao Lao's words, a look of yearning appeared in Xiao Yan's eyes.

Ever since he learned that Xiao Fan had already advanced to a Dou Zong, ripples had been stirring in his heart.

Watching Xiao Fan grow stronger by the day, he couldn't help but feel anxious, constantly asking Yao Lao in roundabout ways if there was a method to rapidly increase his cultivation level.

And who was Yao Lao?

Having experienced the vicissitudes of time and cultivated step-by-step from the lowest ranks to the highest, his understanding of the path of cultivation was profound.

He naturally saw through Xiao Yan's restlessness at a glance and said in a deep voice, "Xiao Yanzi, you have been somewhat impetuous lately."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression froze instantly.

He carefully recalled his actions over the past few days, the images of him eagerly pestering Yao Lao for techniques and his inability to focus during practice flashing through his mind.

Feeling a sense of shame, he smiled bitterly and said, "I just feel a bit of a gap in our progress..."

Yao Lao looked at Xiao Yan, his eyes showing a touch of heartache. He gently patted his head and comforted him, "It is normal to feel that gap. Even in the Central Plains, where experts are as numerous as the stars, he is one of the top-tier geniuses."

"But Xiao Yanzi, you must remember that everyone has their own unique path to walk. We cannot rely solely on others."

Yao Lao understood that Xiao Yan was tempted by the Heaven-tier technique.

After all, it was the legendary technique that countless people dreamed of.

He deliberately provoked him, "Wouldn't that just make you a vassal to someone else? Do you really want to be stepped on by him for the rest of your life?"

As it turned out, Yao Lao knew Xiao Yan's personality perfectly, and the provocation was highly effective.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, a flash of stubbornness in his eyes as he said, "Hmph, how could that be! Even if he is a future Great Emperor, I will still... uh..."

Defy a Great Emperor?

Xiao Yan smiled bitterly to himself; such words were easy to say, but doing it was another matter entirely.

However, he quickly adjusted his mindset and said firmly, "I will also become as strong as him!"

Yao Lao saw that Xiao Yan's fighting spirit had been successfully ignited, a gratified smile appearing on his face as he nodded to himself.

Not bad. Although Xiao Yan currently fell short of that Xiao Fan in every aspect, he possessed his own shining points; with this unyielding drive, there were infinite possibilities.

He was truly a fine disciple worthy of his favor.

At the Xiao Clan Back Mountain, Xiao Fan sat quietly atop a massive boulder, a brush held in his hand, his gaze focused and profound.

He recorded his insights into cultivation techniques and the complex circulation paths stroke by stroke into an ancient, rustic book.

He named this technique "Heaven-Swallowing."

Although this technique was of the astonishing Heaven-tier grade, it possessed a unique and marvelous quality: it was incredibly easy to pick up, with almost no obstacles to starting.

As it turned out, Xiao Fan had meticulously deduced this evil-path Heaven-tier method by using the unique traits of Little Doctor Fairy's Woeful Poison Body and the mysterious Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art as references after countless studies and attempts.

The power of the "Heaven-Swallowing" technique was truly staggering; it could devour the energy of all things and convert it into one's own cultivation, allowing the practitioner's strength to rise rapidly without the side effect of a shaky foundation—it could be called the technique of every practitioner's dreams. However, all things in the world had two sides, and this technique was not without its flaws.

Its only drawback was that whenever the practitioner reached a major realm and was about to advance, the vast energy accumulated within their body would erupt.

This situation was somewhat similar to when Little Doctor Fairy's Woeful Poison Body flared up, yet it was even more violent.

Once this energy erupted, if the practitioner could not properly control it, while they would not necessarily explode and die, they would fall into a predicament, stuck at that realm and unable to advance an inch until that violent energy was completely digested or absorbed.

Xiao Fan frowned slightly. He knew clearly that it was not that he could not improve this technique to be more perfect, but given the limited time and various constraints, this was the best he could achieve for now.

However, he also held a sliver of anticipation in his heart; perhaps once his Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art reached completion and he gained a brand-new understanding of the path of techniques, he would be able to improve this "Heaven-Swallowing" technique and make it flawless.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan narrowed his eyes, a look of satisfaction appearing on his face.

After all... those energies could be transformed into his own nourishment.
