A Change of Mind
After breaking through to the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint, and possessing Emperor Realm Soul, people like Xiao Lin, including himself, can already feel the bottleneck of the Dou Emperor Realm.
Yes, even Xiao Lin, who has just broken through to this realm, could forcefully attempt to reach the Dou Emperor Realm if he wanted to.
Although there's a high chance of failure... it at least proves that Xiao Lin already has that ability!
It's important to know that in the Original Work, Xiao Xuan had already attempted to break through to the Dou Emperor Realm many times before gathering the entire Dou Emperor Bloodline of the Xiao Clan.
This point is also described in the Original Work.
This also proves that the level of Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint with Emperor Realm Soul is fundamentally different from other realms.
In any case, Xiao Lin's current feelings are completely different from those before his breakthrough.
In Xiao Lin's words, after the breakthrough, the world became different in his eyes.
"This... is this the Emperor Soul the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint Empresses? The feeling it gives me is truly amazing!"
"Crunch~"
Feeling the seemingly inexhaustible, surging power within his body, Xiao Lin couldn't help but Void his right hand in the air.
"Buzz~"
Even with such an Ordinary task, Xiao Lin barely used any of his internal Dou Qi, yet the Void before him began to distort.
Immediately after testing his current strength, Xiao Lin's smile widened.
However, just as Xiao Lin was familiarizing himself with his own power, he sensed the disappearance of the terrifying Astral Power that was omnipresent in the Realm of Formations. Bodhi, who had been guarding outside, also entered the Realm of Formations once again.
With Xiao Lin's current strength, he naturally sensed it the moment Bodhi stepped into the Realm of Formations.
"Call out"
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Lin appeared in front of Bodhi.
"It's Bodhi, so why are you the only one who 'Ji Li them?"
Xiao Lin asked with some confusion.
Xiao Lin thought that the commotion caused by his breakthrough was quite significant, and that Bodhi shouldn't be the only one who came!
"First Palace Master, the Second Palace Master has already led the others to the Gu Clan to participate in the Emperor Clan Alliance Gathering. I stayed behind to guard the sect, and also to inform you of this matter, First Palace Master."
Bodhi didn't delay and quickly repeated what Jili had asked him to convey to Xiao Lin before his Ji Li.
"Huh? The Emperor Clan Alliance Gathering meeting has already started? Oh no, did I miss it?"
Xiao Lin, who was still immersed in the joy of breaking through to the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint, suddenly frowned.
The main reason was that Xiao Lin hadn't expected this breakthrough to be so "unsuccessful," taking much longer than he had anticipated.
It's important to know that Xiao Lin had already learned about the power possessed by the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul during his time using Didi's ride-hailing service.
In his opinion, it shouldn't take him too long to refine the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul.
After all, back then, he was much stronger than the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul.
But who could have imagined that the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul would be so special!
Furthermore, if the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul had not been Dou Emperor powerhouse in his previous life, Xiao Lin might not have been able to break through to the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint even after refining that Remnant Soul.
Yes, even when Xiao Lin refined the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul, he still couldn't break through, despite refining 99% of it!
Only by refining the characteristics of the "Dou Emperor" within the last wisp of his Remnant Soul could he break through in one go.
It took Xiao Lin more than half of his seclusion to successfully refine that last trace of "Dou Emperor" characteristics within the opponent's Remnant Soul.
This is precisely why the Realm of Formations was filled with terrifying pressure some time ago, making it impossible for Ji Li and the others to even step inside.
This is because it is not only due to Xiao Lin, but also because of the influence of the last trace of "Dou Emperor" characteristics in the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul.
However, that trace of the "Dou Emperor" characteristic is even more important than the remaining 99% of the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul!
To be honest, even if Xiao Lin had replaced the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul with an Energy Body of equal value, he might not have been able to break through to the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint after refining it!
It can only be said that Xiao Lin underestimated the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint earlier.
Even if he has already traveled two-thirds of the way, the last third is not so good.
According to Xiao Lin's current estimation, if he wanted to break through, he would most likely have had to devour the Energy Body of an Early-Stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng, or the energy of heaven and earth comparable to that, in order to have any chance of breaking through.
The Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul was clearly a little lacking.
However, this was compensated for by the trace of "Dou Emperor" characteristics within the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul.
However, although Xiao Lin was wrong, the result was the same.
He still managed to break through to the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint by devouring the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul!
But the time it took made him a little restless.
"If we do the math, the Second Palace Master and his group set off about 12 days before the Emperor Clan Alliance Gathering, and 9 days have already passed..."
Just as Xiao Lin was feeling slightly annoyed, Bodhi added another sentence.
Upon hearing Bodhi's words, Xiao Lin was taken aback at first, then a look of joy appeared on his face.
"Oh? So, there are still 3 days until the Emperor Clan Alliance Gathering? Good, I didn't miss it!"
At this moment, Xiao Lin also breathed a sigh of relief.
However, seeing Xiao Lin's expression, Bodhi also showed a hesitant look.
"What's wrong, Bodhi? Is there anything else?"
Xiao Lin asked, puzzled.
"No... it has nothing to do with anyone else. What I really want to ask is, now that you've broken through to the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint realm, why don't you consider coming with me to find my Main Body, and then using the power of my Main Body to break through to the Dou Emperor Realm?"
Since Xiao Lin had asked, Bodhi naturally spoke up.
Now it was Xiao Lin's turn to fall silent.
To be honest, if he were all alone, he would have already followed Bodhi to find his Main Body, the ancient Bodhi Ancient Tree.
However, he wasn't!
Nowadays, with his large family and business empire, he often can't do whatever he wants.
After all, he could go find the Bodhi Ancient Tree Main Body right now and use its power to break through.
But who knows how long it will take to break through?
If anything were to happen to his family or friends during this time, he would probably regret it for the rest of his life.
Don't forget, this life is quite different from the Original Work.
Behind him is the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, and besides Xiao Yan, the brothers Xiao Ding and Xiao Li are also going to participate in the war against the Hun Clan.
If you ask him to break through to the Dou Emperor right now, there's no way he'd be at ease!
If things go wrong, he might encounter problems himself when he tries to break through to the Dou Emperor Realm.
Clearly, Xiao Lin is currently unable to focus on finding the Bodhi Ancient Tree for a breakthrough.
Of course, besides that, there was another reason influencing Xiao Lin's decision.
That is, he is now at the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint. If he joins forces with Gu Yuan and Zhukun, they might be able to kill Hun Tiandi in the Ancient Emperor's Cave beforehand!
Yes, with this breakthrough, Xiao Lin's thinking has also changed...
