The Strength of a Five-Star Dou Ling?

Xiao Yan at this moment.

Having risen two levels in a row, he was incredibly excited and thrilled.

He could not wait to say to Xiao Ze before him,

"Little brother, I never expected this pill of yours to have such miraculous effects."

"After taking it and cultivating for a while,"

"absorbing the medicinal power within it actually raised me by two levels."

"It's unbelievable."

"For my strength to improve this quickly,"

"it is all thanks to your help, little brother."

Xiao Yan was exceptionally excited and thrilled.

After saying that,

Xiao Ze's gaze and attention turned to the rewards on the System Panel.

"The host has completed the mission of helping Xiao Yan rise by two levels."

"The mission was completed beyond expectations. You have received 1,000 Points."

"You have also received a Red Treasure Chest as a reward."

"It has been placed in the panel."

The 1,000 Points he had just received from the system

had naturally already been deposited into the panel.

However, Xiao Ze immediately chose to open the Red Treasure Chest.

He truly wanted to know what sort of reward

he would draw from the chest next.

Thus, Xiao Ze was also extremely expectant and excited.

"System, draw the reward immediately."

"Host command received. Drawing a reward for you now."

"One Red Treasure Chest has been opened. Reward draw complete."

"Reward obtained: one random fire-attribute high-tier Profound Rank Dou Technique, Eight Desolation Dragon Art."

"It has been placed in the System Panel."

The reward before him was actually a fire-attribute high-tier Profound Rank Dou Technique.

A Dou Technique of this level did not hold much appeal for Xiao Ze.

If he were to cultivate one, it would have to start at the Earth Rank.

He was not very interested in Profound Rank Dou Techniques.

So, after obtaining this Dou Technique,

he looked at Xiao Yan before him.

Then he said to Xiao Yan,

"Third Brother, your level has risen so much now."

"Your strength has improved considerably as well, but Dou Techniques are also important."

"You cannot neglect them. I have a high-tier Profound Rank Dou Technique here."

"It is called the Eight Desolation Dragon Art. If you cultivate it properly,"

"then once you reach mastery, it may be able to rival a low-tier Earth Rank Dou Technique."

"Take it. Our Xiao Family must rise again."

"Returning to the imperial capital is only the current goal."

"Everyone in the Xiao Family must work hard."

"I am no exception, and neither are you."

After Xiao Ze finished speaking,

he retrieved the fire-attribute Dou Technique he had just obtained from the System Backpack.

Then he placed it in Xiao Yan's hands.

A Dou Technique of this level held neither interest nor appeal for him.

Leaving it around would only let it gather dust.

Whether he helped Xiao Yan improve his level or his Dou Techniques,

he might receive system rewards in return.

After taking out the Dou Technique and giving it to Xiao Yan,

Xiao Yan was also exceptionally excited and thrilled.

Sure enough, as expected, he saw the reward notification on the System Panel.

"The host has given Xiao Yan a Profound Rank Dou Technique."

"The progress of the main mission to revitalize the Xiao Family has been completed."

"You have received 1,500 Points, which have been entered into the System Panel."

Seeing the text and notification on the System Panel,

Xiao Ze felt a faint surge of delight.

As for Xiao Yan, he looked at the Dou Technique in his hands.

He was also extremely excited.

This was a high-tier Profound Rank Dou Technique, an immensely precious item.

Even within the Misty Cloud Sect, a Dou Technique of this level was exceptionally precious.

After Xiao Yan accepted it, he did not hesitate.

He immediately said with emotion,

"Little brother, Third Brother won't say anything else."

"If the day comes when I, Xiao Yan, make it big, I will repay you a hundredfold."

For the next few days, Xiao Yan cultivated continuously at the Back Mountain.

He trained in the Eight Desolation Dragon Art day and night.

This was the highest-ranked Dou Technique he currently possessed.

If he cultivated it to the end, perhaps it really would be as Xiao Ze had said.

It might possess power comparable to an Earth Rank Dou Technique.

Over the next few days,

Xiao Ze occasionally met with Xiao Xun'er.

Nor did he neglect his own cultivation.

He had now reached the strength of a four-star Dou Ling.

On this day, he planned to visit the Mittel Auction House.

He had refined a fifth-grade medicinal pill.

He intended to hand it over to Ya Fei at the Mittel Auction House for auction.

This pill was called Qi Recovery Powder.

Although it was an ordinary pill used to restore Dou Qi,

this Qi Recovery Powder had reached the fifth grade.

Even a Dou Emperor-level expert,

when their Dou Qi had been exhausted,

could recover all their Dou Qi by taking a single pill.

The crucial point was that it had reached the fifth grade.

After Ya Fei received the pill,

she was exceptionally excited and thrilled.

She had not expected to receive another fifth-grade pill from Young Master Xiao Ze.

Ya Fei was naturally very excited and expectant.

So she patted her chest.

Then she promised Xiao Ze,

"Young Master Xiao Ze, please rest assured. This fifth-grade medicinal pill—"

"I will certainly auction it properly and strive to get the most satisfactory price."

"With you handling it, I'm at ease," Xiao Ze replied.

After leaving the Mittel Auction House, he returned to the Xiao Family.

After returning to the Xiao Family, Xiao Ze headed to the family's Back Mountain.

He cultivated for more than two hours.

The panel displayed:

"You cultivated for two and a half hours."

"Your strength and cultivation have improved. You have reached the strength of a five-star Dou Ling."

After his level rose, Xiao Ze was extremely satisfied.

As the family patriarch, and also the father of Xiao Ze and Xiao Yan,

Xiao Zhan had heard last night

that Xiao Yan had actually risen another two levels.

Moreover, he had risen those levels with Xiao Ze's help.

Xiao Zhan was also exceptionally excited and thrilled.

His younger son was simply too outstanding.

Not only had he drawn the attention of countless experts in the Jia Ma Empire,

as well as the special attention of the Gama Empire Royal Family,

his own strength had also reached the Dou Ling level.

More importantly, he had helped Xiao Yan improve at such a rapid pace.

At this rate, before the Three-Year Agreement even arrived,

the trend of Xiao Yan defeating Nalan Yanran would become completely clear.

Xiao Zhan was also extremely excited and thrilled.

He came to the family's Back Mountain and saw that Xiao Ze was still cultivating.

So Xiao Zhan did not go over and disturb him.

Instead, he came here, sat nearby, and waited quietly.

More than an hour later, Xiao Ze withdrew from his cultivation state.

Seeing Xiao Zhan before him, who had no idea how long he had been waiting there,

Xiao Ze rose and said,

"Father, when did you arrive? I was busy cultivating just now."

"I didn't pay attention to anything around me."

"It's fine. Cultivation is what matters most," Xiao Zhan said with a smile.

At that moment, he suddenly came to his senses.

With an extremely astonished expression, he said,

"Your strength just now... rose again? Five-star Dou Ling?"

Xiao Zhan's expression immediately froze in shock.
