Entering Seclusion Again
After properly disposing of the Heaven Rank Cultivation Method and Dou Technique he obtained from Gu Yuan, what Xiao Lin truly needs now is another item among them—that Ninth-Grade Profound Pill!
Xiao Lin is now at the Mid-Stage Six-Star Dou Sheng, so the Ninth-Grade Treasure Pills are practically useless to him.
However, the Ninth-Grade Profound Pill is different!
In the Original Work, Xiao consumed two Ninth-Grade Profound Pills.
The first one helped Xiao Yan advance from the Five-Star Dou Sheng realm to the six-star realm.
The second one helped Xiao Yan advance from the Six-Star Dou Sheng realm to the seven-star realm!
Therefore, even Ninth-Grade Profound Pill would be useful to Xiao Lin now, and the improvement would be significant!
Of course, Xiao Lin hadn't actually expected anyone to trade Ninth-Grade Profound Pill.
After all, when it comes to Ninth-Grade Treasure Pills, the major Great Emperor clans probably have quite a few in their hands.
However, Ninth-Grade Profound Pill is extremely rare!
It should be known that there are probably no more than a handful of Ninth-Grade Profound Pill Alchemists in the entire Dou Qi Continent today!
It's easy to imagine how time-consuming and laborious it is to refine Ninth-Grade Profound Pill.
Moreover, there is a high chance of failure in the refining process.
Therefore, normally, even if the major Great Emperor clans still possess a few Rank Ninth-Grade Profound Pills, they generally wouldn't trade them.
This shows that Gu Yuan really went all out to acquire the Tou She Ancient God Jade.
"Ninth-Grade Profound Pill! Gu Yuan is really generous... I just hope this Ninth-Grade Profound Pill can help me improve a bit more, time is running out!"
Holding the Ninth-Grade Profound Pill, which emitted a fragrant aroma, in his hand, Xiao Lin's mind went blank.
Although he has changed a lot of history, it has only been a little over ten years since the Original Work 'Battle of the Two Emperors.
If he cultivates normally, it will be difficult for him to reach the Eight-Star Dou Sheng in the remaining time!
The path of cultivation becomes increasingly difficult as you progress.
If he hadn't obtained this Ninth-Grade Profound Pill, Xiao Lin might have remained stuck at the Six-Star Dou Sheng realm for much longer.
"It seems that after I complete this breakthrough using the Ninth-Grade Profound Pill, I'll have to prepare to make a trip to the old site of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace!"
As he muttered to himself, Xiao Lin had already made up his mind.
After that, Xiao Lin began a new round of seclusion!
As for the great battle between Hun Tiandi and Zhukun, Xiao Lin was also eager to see it, after all, it was a clash between the two most powerful beings on the Dou Qi Continent!
If he can see the whole thing from beginning to end, it will probably benefit his future cultivation.
But Xiao Lin didn't want to die!
Is the battle for the souls of the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint Emperor Soul so easy to watch?
Don't be fooled by the fact that Xiao Lin is already at the Mid-Stage Six-Star Dou Sheng.
However, the aftershocks of the battle for the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint Emperor Souls would probably be enough to destroy him!
In this world, even watching the excitement comes with risks!
Don't you see that even powerful figures like Lei Ying and Yan Jin, both Late-Stage Eight-Star Dou Sheng, didn't dare to watch the battle?
With Xiao Lin's skinny arms and legs, going to watch the battle would be tantamount to sending himself to his death!
Afterwards, Xiao Lin returned to the Xiao Household Ancestral Residence in the Imperial Capital and put all the Heaven Rank Cultivation Method and Dou Technique he had obtained into the fourth-floor Scripture Pavilion that he had created.
As for himself, he returned to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, swallowed the Ninth-Grade Profound Pill, and began his breakthrough.
This time, the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace naturally sent people to participate in the auction of the Tou She Ancient God Jade held at the Ice River Valley Ruins.
Of course, it couldn't be the two Dou Sheng, Ji Li and Ling Miao, who went!
The existence of the Ling Miao cannot be exposed to the light for the time being.
As for Ji Li, in his own words, there were too many big shots at the event, and he wouldn't be able to show off if he went, so why bother going!
All I can say is, this is very Ji Li!
Therefore, the auction for the Tou She Ancient God Jade not long ago was attended by Zuo He, the First Elder of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace.
He was just going through the motions.
There are quite a few cases like the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace.
After all, they all knew that the Tou She Ancient God Jade could not possibly fall into their hands.
Therefore, each side only sent a Leadership Elder to participate, just to show up as a formality.
Even forces like the Four Pavilions didn't send anyone at all!
In such a situation, who below the level of Dou Venerable would have the courage to go?
It's likely that even the aura of Dou Sheng would be enough to suffocate them.
Since a force like the Four Pavilions didn't have any extra Dou Zun experts, they simply decided to stay home.
If Yao Lao had already been resurrected, the Starfall Pavilion would be qualified to participate, but for now, it's best to forget about it.
Although Xiao Yan had already broken through to the Dou Zun Realm, the other party had just destroyed the Ice River Valley with a single Fire Lotus attack. Why would he foolishly continue to stay there?
Even if we take a step back, he'd only just reunited with Xiao Yi Xian; what business is it of his of the Tou She Ancient God Jade dispute?
Because he didn't experience the series of events that happened in the Xiao Household in the Original Work, Xiao Yan is much more carefree now than in the Original Work, and he no longer feels the pressure he was under.
To put it simply, in the Original Work, Xiao Yan had no choice but to come to Central Plains to desperately improve his strength in order to rescue Yao Lao and his father.
In this life, Xiao Yan came to Central Plains purely for training, nothing more!
Therefore, in Xiao Yan's eyes, the battle for the Tou She Ancient God Jade was completely unimportant compared to his reunion with Xiao Yi Xian!
Sure enough, after leaving the Ice River Valley, he was happily catching up with Xiao Yi Xian.
The events outside were none of his concern.
However, Xiao Yan kept glancing at Xiao Yi Xian along the way, making the latter feel quite embarrassed.
"Xiao Yan, why are you staring at me like that?"
Xiao Yi Xian blushed and asked.
During this time, she was even too embarrassed to look at Xiao Yan!
"Haha, it's been so long! Of course I want to see Xiao Yi Xian more often, lest you suddenly hide from me and disappear again!"
Xiao Yan teased with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian felt even more embarrassed.
Looking back now, Xiao Yi Xian also realized that she had been a bit too stubborn earlier.
Having already come to understand what kind of person Xiao Yan was, how could she still doubt that he would dislike her hair color?
All I can say is that she was overthinking things back then, which is why she seemed so anxious and insecure.
Now that she's met Xiao Yan again, she won't run away anymore!
Don't worry, I won't do it again, really!
To show her determination, Xiao Yi Xian met Xiao Yan's eyes with unusual seriousness this time.
You only need to feel lost once in your life.
Saying any more would be incredibly foolish!
"Yes, I believe you!"
After Xiao Yi Xian made her stance clear, Xiao Yan also put away his smile and became serious.
Then, the two gazed at each other tenderly.
"Ahem~, by the way, have you guys forgotten I'm still here?"
Just then, an untimely voice suddenly broke in.
As you can see, Qing Lin is looking quite dejected next to Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Yan.
So you're really treating her like she doesn't exist?
