Activating Cheat Mode

As Xiao Han injected his Dou Qi, the previously unaffected formation suddenly transformed, turning into a Snowy Plains. The intense Cold Qi sent shivers down everyone's spines, causing them to unconsciously circulate their Dou Qi to resist.

Then Xiao Han formed a series of strange hand seals, and a storm burst forth from the space, with a huge energy vortex pouring into the array from its center.

Xiao Zhan's eyes narrowed. He felt the energy in the entire space being compressed into the array, which was only a few dozen feet in size, causing the energy concentration to increase by nearly a hundred times! He could even see droplets formed from the dense energy.

Xiao Zhan could even imagine how wonderful it would be to cultivate in such an environment.

Looking at Xiao Han, who was focused on manipulating the formation, he thought to himself, "Uncle's methods are indeed Tong Xuan!"

Xiao Han had no time to consider Xiao Zhan's thoughts. In Xiao Zhan's eyes, his actions were effortless, but in reality, Xiao Han was giving it his all.

This was a conjecture made by Xiao Han after he had studied the Spirit Clan's Baptism Altar.

The reason why people of Ancient Races are generally much stronger than ordinary people is not only because of the talent given by the Dou Di Bloodline, but also because of their advanced Cultivation Techniques and Combat Skills, and various resources.

Another crucial element is the Baptism Altar. This is a treasure passed down from ancient times.

In Central Plains, Dou Wang who is nearly twenty years old or Dou Zong who is under thirty can be called a genius. However, such a level of talent is not exactly common among Ancient Races, but it is certainly a rare find.

This is largely due to the Baptism Altar. It can help members of Ancient Races rapidly increase their Dou Qi cultivation after reaching the Dou Zhi Qi stage, with minimal side effects.

Xiao Han had witnessed the Spirit Clan's Baptism Altar before and discovered some clues from it.

The so-called baptism is nothing more than a special method of directly infusing a large amount of energy into the recipient, similar to the inheritance of cultivation.

This kind of baptism cannot be used on people beyond the Dou Zun, and it needs to be done in multiple stages to prevent the cultivation level from increasing too much at once, which would cause the cultivation level to become unstable and affect the potential.

Xiao Han cannot directly infuse his Dou Qi into others. Unless the attributes are the same, this would cause two different attributes of Dou Qi to collide within the body, which is tantamount to killing someone!

He relied on another method, which was to directly compress and transfer the energy of the entire space, thereby increasing the energy concentration in a certain range of space.

Since he couldn't control time, Xiao Han could only improve efficiency.

Under such a high concentration of energy, even normal cultivation, with considerable waste, will result in a rocket-like increase in cultivation speed.

However, the high concentration of energy rush is not something that ordinary people can withstand. This is why Xiao Han warned everyone that they could withdraw automatically. Otherwise, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it could lead to broken meridians and lifelong disability.

This method of raising the cultivation level of a group of people at once is too costly, and only Xiao Han dared to use it after he had reached the Nine Star level.

To prevent the Xiao Clan from gaining too much power at once and causing their internal Dou Qi to become weak, Xiao Han specially used Dou Techniques to create an extremely harsh environment, causing the Dou Qi of the Xiao Clan family members to be constantly consumed. In this process, he controlled the power in his body and compressed and solidified it.

After doing all this, Xiao Han's forehead was slightly sweaty. Then time seemed to stand still, and he remained motionless, with Xiao Zhan Xiao Han standing beside him to Protector.

This process may last for some time. It is foreseeable that after this "baptism" is over, the strength of the Xiao Clan family will increase dramatically, which may give the enemy a great surprise.

An earthquake is about to strike the Northwest Continent. Meanwhile, in the Central Plains, in a special testing room of the Pill Tower, a group of people are stunned by the commotion caused by a little girl.

"Congratulations, you are now a Seventh Grade High-Level Alchemist." Pill Tower Elder Sheng Yao of the Pill Tower still hadn't recovered from his surprise when he quickly handed over a badge symbolizing a Seventh Grade High-Level Alchemist.

Ye Zhong looked at his granddaughter with a face full of surprise; the Ye Family was saved this time.

"Thank you, Elder!" Ye Xinlan said calmly, then slowly walked towards the door. Ye Zhong glanced at the others in the room, then left with light steps.

Just then, a discordant voice suddenly rang out from the side. An extremely mean-spirited old woman said with a face full of disdain, "They've only managed to get close to the Langya Pavilion, what's there to be proud of!"

Ye Xinlan paused, then continued walking outside.

Ye Zhong snorted coldly, "Old man, why haven't I seen you this annoying before!"

"Heh~" the old woman said coldly, her hawk-like eyes falling on Ye Xinlan walking in front. "As a member of the Pill Tower Elder Family, you actually switched sides to another sect, you really have no shame."

Ye Zhong's face instantly darkened, and Ye Xinlan also stopped in her tracks.

Sheng Yao frowned. "Silence!" That was a bit much.

Unfortunately, his warning came too late!

Ye Xinlan finally stopped, turned around, and looked at the old woman expressionlessly, her still-childish face showing neither joy nor sorrow.

The old woman's lips curled into a mocking smile. Although Sheng Yao was beside her, preventing her from saying anything further, she could still disgust this little girl.

Immediately, they saw Ye Xinlan forming a series of strange hand seals, and a peculiar fluctuation emanated from between her brows. Just as the others were puzzled, Sheng Yao exclaimed in shock, "Soul Skill?!"

"Soul Skill?" The old woman paused, then suddenly felt as if she were trapped in a quagmire, unable to move, and finding it extremely difficult to circulate her Dou Qi. As for her Soul Strength, it was even more difficult to mobilize.

At this moment, Ye Xinlan's small mouth opened slightly. "Explode!"

"Huh?!" Suddenly, the old woman felt the space around her become unstable. Then, a roaring sound rang out, and boundless flames seemed to engulf her body. The intense pain almost consumed her sanity.

"Ah!" The old woman couldn't help but let out a scream.

Then an aged voice was heard, "Little girl, spare her for my sake!"

Then, the old woman felt herself gradually regaining control of her body and suddenly opened her eyes. Her face showed an expression of having escaped death, while the Bai Family who had come with her for the assessment looked at her with worry.

Looking at himself, completely unharmed, even with his clothes intact, he showed a hint of doubt.

Immediately, a deep sense of dread flashed in his eyes, and he questioned Ye Xinlan with lingering fear, "What... what did you do to me?"

Ye Xinlan didn't answer, but instead turned her gaze to Sheng Yao: "I'm sorry to have troubled the Elder!"

He bowed and walked outside again, followed by Ye Zhong, who looked astonished.

"You..." The old woman was about to speak when Sheng Yao coldly interrupted her, "Enough!"

Elder Sheng Yao's voice was cold. "Do you know that you just narrowly escaped death?!"

"You dare offend Yi Huang's disciple? Do you have a death wish?"

The trio of geniuses Xiao Han, and Yi Huang, each possessed unique strengths and none were weak. However, Yi Huang, as the only Alchemist among them, had a bizarre and unpredictable soul attack that was impossible to defend against and caused them endless headaches!

Although as Yi Huang gradually retreated behind the scenes, Central Plains's impression of her faded more and more.

However, Sheng Yao had already been given special advice by Xuan Kongzi before he arrived, and he reacted as soon as Ye Xinlan made her move.

As Yi Huang's disciple, it would be strange if you didn't have some methods to target the soul and overcome the strong with the weak!

"But Elder..." the old woman hurriedly spoke up to defend herself. As one of the Eight Great Elders of the Pill Tower, Sheng Yao held a great deal of power in the Pill Tower. If she displeased him, she would inevitably be punished when she returned to the Bai Family.

"That little girl was personally approved by the guild leader to join Langya Pavilion, so how can you be allowed to make a fuss on the side!" Sheng Yao had no intention of staying any longer.

He should have known that something bad was going to happen today!

Before the assessment, Ye Xinlan had just survived an assassination attempt on their Pill Tower's territory. To show that it was serious and safe, Pill Tower unusually sent him to preside over the level certification.

But they never expected to encounter such a reckless fool. The Pill Tower Elder do indeed bring considerable benefits, but the Bai Family, thinking they have the Pill Tower backing them, dared to provoke Ye Xinlan of the Ye Family at will.

Do you really think things are the same as they used to be?

Not to mention that the Ye Family will definitely retain their Elder seat this time, Ye Xinlan's status as a personal disciple is not something that ordinary people can afford to offend.

As one of the Eight Great Elders, Sheng Yao could understand the actions of the Three Giants to some extent.

Although it may not be needed for a long time, it is undeniable that Ye Xinlan can serve as a bridge between the Langya Pavilion and Pill Tower at certain times. This was also an important reason why Xuan Kongzi and others agreed to let the former join Langya Pavilion.

Such an important position cannot be compared to a mere Elder's seat! However, the actions of this old woman from the Bai Family almost ruined the important affairs of their Pill Tower!

Watching Ye Xinlan's departing figure, Sheng Yao couldn't help but sigh, "I never imagined that Deputy Pavilion Master Yi Huang's research on the soul was so profound!"

With Sheng Yao's keen eye, he could easily tell that Ye Xinlan had just used a rather high-level Soul Skill, at least at the Earth Grade or above. Soul Skill of this level were extremely rare even in the Pill Tower.

In addition, Ye Xinlan is able to use it skillfully, and her own Soul Strength is also quite good, already infinitely close to the Spirit Realm. She only needs to wait for a chance to transform so that her soul can be imbued with spirituality and complete the advancement.

The fact that Yi Huang was able to train Ye Xinlan, who wasn't particularly outstanding, to this level in just a few years speaks volumes about her skill, which is what amazed Sheng Yao.

"This time, the Ye Family has truly risen to power!"
