Two-Star Dou Venerable, Dou Zong Yun Shan!

In the fourth year since Xiao Lin became the head of the Xiao Household family, there were less than three months left until the grand competition Four Great Empires Sect Tournament.

At this moment, in a desolate wilderness in the Northwest Continent, a sudden gale arose, and endless Spiritual Energy was converging in a certain direction.

At the very center of that Spiritual Energy, a figure in a blue blouse sat alone in meditation.

At this moment, he seemed to have transformed into a black hole, devouring all the Spiritual Energy around him.

Furthermore, there appears to be a Formation surrounding this figure in blue cedar!

The figure in blue pine was none other than Xiao Lin!

At this moment, Xiao Lin was clearly undergoing a breakthrough.

It turned out that about three days ago, Xiao Lin suddenly sensed an opportunity for a breakthrough.

Therefore, without any hesitation, he entrusted all the trivial matters of the Xiao Household to the Elders, and then he himself opened a Spatial Passage and came here.

The breakthrough to the Dou Zun Realm has a significant impact.

Therefore, Xiao Lin dared not stay in the Gama Imperial Capital any longer.

Since he had already broken through to the Dou Zun Realm, opening a Spatial Passage was extremely simple for him.

Therefore, after arriving here, Xiao Lin casually set up a Spirit-Gathering Formation and began his breakthrough.

This breakthrough took three days.

Today, the most crucial moment for his breakthrough has finally arrived!

"Boom"

Endless Spiritual Energy surged into his body, and Xiao Lin's cultivation level broke through to the Two-Star Dou Zun.

At the moment of breakthrough, Xiao Lin also opened his eyes, which had been tightly closed.

Tiny specks of starlight appeared in his eyes, then quickly disappeared.

"Phew~, I finally broke through. This must be the longest breakthrough I've ever taken?"

Although his cultivation had broken through to the Two-Star Dou Zun, to be honest, Xiao Lin did not show any joy on his face.

After all, it took him four years to break through from One-Star Dou Venerable to a two-star, which was indeed too slow for Xiao Lin.

While a large part of this was due to his focus on family development, it must also be said that his cultivation speed did indeed slow down.

Of course, for most people, breaking through from One-Star Dou Venerable to a two-star Dou Zun in four years isn't actually slow, but how could Xiao Lin possibly be satisfied?

You have to understand, if he continues to cultivate at this rate, by the time the story begins, he'll probably only reach the level of Mid-Level Dou Venerable at best.

In Xiao Lin's view, this was far from enough.

Don't forget, although the exact time is still uncertain, if nothing unexpected happens, there should only be about 20 years left until the start of the Original Work story.

After all, Xiao Lin's son Xiao Zhan, is already 20 years old.

It seems that Xiao Yan's birth is not far off.

"It's still too slow! It seems I'll have to make a trip to Central Plains in a while—"

Xiao Lin muttered to himself.

However, Xiao Lin quickly composed himself after his breakthrough.

"Buzz~"

Immediately, Xiao Lin made a light slash in the Void in front of him, and a Spatial Passage appeared.

The next second, Xiao Lin stepped inside.

When Xiao Lin reappeared, he was already at the Xiao Household.

For Dou Zun expert, traveling is this convenient!

For some time afterward, Xiao Lin stayed at the Xiao Household to solidify his cultivation level.

Soon, the grand competition among the Four Great Empires' Sect Tournament was approaching.

Because he had promised Yun Shan that he would participate in the Dou Wang competition in the Sect Tournament, Xiao Lin had no intention of breaking his promise.

Sure enough, on the appointed day, Xiao Lin arrived at the Misty Cloud Sect early.

The location for this grand competition of the Four Great Empires' Sect Tournament is the Cloud Empire!

The personnel from the Jia Ma Empire who participated in the war naturally assembled before setting off together.

Of course, although each realm sent three contestants, each country actually brought more people with them.

This is so that we'll have more choices then!

Therefore, from the lowest level of Dou Zhe to the highest level of Dou Wang, at least five people from each realm were invited by Yun Shan.

Sure enough, after arriving at the Misty Cloud Sect Dou Wang, Xiao Lin met Yan Shi, Feng Li, and one old Dou Wang from the Misty Cloud Sect and the Gama Imperial Family, and even Mittel Tengshan came!

Including Xiao Lin, there are now six Dou Wangs.

While they were waiting, Jia Xing Tian Xingtian of the Jia Ma Royal House and Fa Ma of the Alchemist Guild arrived.

After a while, Yun Shan walked out of the Misty Cloud Sect.

"Sect Master Yun Shan! ×n"

Upon seeing Yun Shan, the group went up to greet him.

Yun Shan then bowed to everyone in turn.

When Yun Shan saw Xiao Lin, he even gave him a barely perceptible nod.

Similarly, Xiao Lin nodded to Yun Shan in acknowledgment.

At the same time, Xiao Lin also discovered that Yun Shan had broken through to the Dou Zong realm!

Clearly, after Xiao Lin made a deal with him two years ago, returning the lost Earth Tier Cultivation Method and Dou Technique of the Misty Cloud Sect, the other party must have already switched to cultivating them!

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to break through to the Dou Zong so smoothly and without any warning.

At this moment, Yun Shan looked brimming with confidence and high spirits.

To be fair, after breaking through to the Dou Zong Realm, Yun Shan became much more confident.

Of course, apart from Xiao Lin, who genuinely recognized Yun Shan's breakthrough to Dou Zong, both Dou Huang experts, Jia Xing Tian and Fa Ma, showed expressions of suspicion upon seeing Yun Shan.

Especially Jia Xing Tian, whose face showed even greater confusion!

Don't forget, although Yun Shan was slightly stronger than Jia Xing Tian earlier, he was still a Peak Nine-Star Dou Emperor!

At the last Misty Cloud Sect's disciple recruitment ceremony, he was still able to discern Yun Shan's cultivation level, but this time, Jia Xing Tian was horrified to find that he could no longer see through Yun Shan.

Not only that, but Jia Xing Tian he felt that Yun Shan looked even younger this time than he did two years ago.

Previously, Jia Xing Tian could still see a trace of wrinkles on Yun Shan's face, but this time, Yun Shan's face not only had no wrinkles, but even his skin looked like that of a newborn baby.

This was utterly unbelievable to Jia Xing Tian.

At first, Jia Xing Tian was puzzled as to why Yun Shan had changed like this, but soon his expression changed as he thought of a certain possibility.

"That's impossible! I clearly didn't sense that Yun Shan would break through anytime soon during his battle with Hai Bodong two years ago—"

Jia Xing Tian frowned and thought to himself.

"Jia Xing Tian, what are you thinking about?"

Just then, Yun Shan's voice suddenly rang in Jia Xing Tian's ears.

As his longtime rival of decades, he was eager to see Jia Xing Tian suffer a setback.

Now that he's broken through to the Dou Zong Realm, shouldn't he show off in front of his opponent?

Ever since he revealed himself, Jia Xing Tian had been secretly observing him. Hadn't he noticed?

At this moment, Yun Shan was in an exceptionally good mood!
