An invisible wave of soul energy spread like a tide under Xiao Yan's thoughts.

In the blink of an eye, his Soul Perception spread outwards from the Heavenly Dipper Hall, outwards from the Underground Palace, and outwards from the Xuanming Mountains.

Xiao Yan's perception covered an area spanning thousands of miles, or even further, and he had complete control over any movement within it.

Moreover, the moment Xiao Yan reached the Heaven Realm Great Perfection, his soul could exist in a physical form, becoming indistinguishable from his physical body.

When fighting, he can also create a soul clone to fight alongside his physical body. With their perfect coordination, they can achieve a result greater than the sum of its parts, resulting in a significant boost.

"If even the Heaven Realm Great Perfection is this powerful, I really don't know how strong the Emperor Realm Soul must be." Feeling his own improvement, Xiao Yan couldn't help but look forward to it.

"Once we return from the Sound Valley, it's about time we made a trip to the Gu Clan." Mentioning the Gu Clan brought a look of excitement to Xiao Yan's face.

His thoughts were not only on Xun'er, who was waiting for him, but also on the old ancestor Xiao Xuan, who was waiting patiently in the Heavenly Tomb.

When mentioning Ancestor Xiao Xuan, one cannot help but mention a Nine-Star Dou Sheng from the Gu Clan.

Thinking of his Father-in-law, whom he had never met, Xiao Yan's lips curled up, and he looked forward to the day he would go to the Gu Clan even more.

"It's time to go out." Xiao Yan stood up and tidied his appearance. "I've been gone for over forty days; my teachers must be getting impatient."

Immediately, his figure vanished from the hall, and in the next instant, he appeared outside the hall, standing before Hun Miesheng and his group.

"Lord of the Palace!"

Upon seeing Xiao Yan Xiao Yan, everyone present showed respect and immediately knelt down before him.

"I will be leaving for a while. You all guard this place well. If there are any urgent matters or problems that you cannot resolve, contact me through the communication Jade Slip slip, and I will return immediately..."

As Xiao Yan spoke, he tossed several Jade Slip slips to Hun Miesheng and the Vice Hall Master.

Now that he, Xiao Yan, is the Soul Hall Master, he naturally can no longer do those heinous things. It's like giving these beasts a break.

The delivery of souls to the Hun Clan is also periodic, and the next delivery will not take until several years later, so there is no need to worry about being detected by the Hun Clan in the short term.

"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.

After explaining everything about the Soul Hall, Xiao Yan left the Heavenly Dipper Hall and headed towards the Starfall Pavilion.

Wow, it's so lively here!

As soon as he stepped into the Star Realm, Xiao Yan sensed several familiar auras.

There are Qing Lin, as well as the three Ancient Void Dragon of the Void: Zi Yan, Zhu Kun, and Zhu Ling.

Following the scent, Xiao Yan arrived inside the Starfall Pavilion. As soon as he entered the Central Hall, a fragrant breeze wafted over, and a soft, delicate body threw itself into his arms.

Who else could it be but Zi Yan?

"You stinky Xiao Yan, you're finally back!" Zi Yan rubbed against Xiao Yan 'Xiao Yan chest, inhaling his scent, her face full of enjoyment and dependence. "I missed you so much."

During the months she was separated from Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan Zi Yan missed him constantly.

"Zi Yan, you... you've broken through to the Seven-Star Dou Saint?!" Xiao Yan keenly sensed Zi Yan's surging aura and his expression immediately turned somewhat surprised.

It's only been less than four months, Zi Yan has already broken through from the Early Six-Star Dou Sheng to the early stage of Seven-Star Dou Saint? That's incredibly fast!

"Of course, I am very strong." Zi Yan raised her delicate chin, her face full of pride.

"Awesome!" Xiao Yan was never one to spoil the fun. He gave the little girl a thumbs up, patted her head, and didn't hold back his praise.

Zi Yan was overjoyed to receive the praise. Her hard work in cultivation over the past few months was all for the sake of getting praise from that stinky Xiao Yan.

The two were so engrossed in their conversation that everyone else in the hall became mere background figures.

"Ahem." It was the Yao Lao who reminded them, and only then did the two separate.

Looking at his precious daughter, whose eyes were completely fixed on Xiao Yan, Zhu Kun shook his head helplessly. A daughter is like a tree that grows up and can't be kept at home.

After many times, Zi Yan's skin had become thick-skinned, and she wasn't embarrassed at all even when teased by others.

Upon arriving before Yao Lao and the others, Xiao Yan greeted them one by one.

Aside from Yao Lao, Zhu Kun, Zhu Ling, and Qing Lin, even the Yellow Springs Demon Saint, who usually remained in seclusion, was present.

Judging from his appearance, he must have had a confrontation with Zhu Kun before.

If it were a contest of strength in life, Xiao Yan really couldn't predict the outcome. As for now, Zhu Kun would definitely win, since the Yellow Springs Demon Saint hadn't yet cultivated a physical body and wasn't at his peak.

"My dear son-in-law, judging from your appearance, you've had a very fruitful trip!" Zhu Kun keenly noticed the changes in Xiao Yan and exclaimed in admiration.

With his keen eyesight, he could naturally perceive that Xiao Yan's soul realm had reached the Heaven Realm Great Perfection, and he couldn't help but envy Xiao Yan's soul talent.

"I managed to obtain some Soul Origin and, by sheer luck, broke through to the Great Perfection." Xiao Yan nodded with a smile.

"Young friend Xiao Yan is truly astonishing." The Yellow Springs Demon Saint was undoubtedly the most qualified to comment on the speed at which Xiao Yan's soul realm had improved.

When he first met Xiao Yan, the latter was only at the Middle Heaven Realm. In just a few years, he had already broken through to the Great Perfection, his improvement speed was like a joke.

"Senior, you flatter me." Xiao Yan wasn't arrogant at all. If even with cheat codes he couldn't achieve a crushing victory, he might as well just find a block of tofu and smash his head against it; it would be too embarrassing.

The Yao Lao stroked his beard, a broad smile on his face, genuinely happy for his precious disciple.

Qing Lin, Zhu Ling, and Zi Yan felt the same way, genuinely happy for Xiao Yan.

After some casual conversation, Xiao Yan learned that Zi Yan had been completing the cultivation tasks assigned by Zhu Kun specifically for the Ancient Void Dragon Emperor for the past few months.

In just over three months, he broke through from the early stage of the sixth star to the early stage of the seventh star.

However, this kind of training is only effective the first time; after that, the rapid increase in skill level is no longer seen.

Besides Zi Yan, Qing Lin has also improved significantly, having successfully broken through to the level of One-Star Dou Sheng, and his strength seems to have increased considerably.

"By the way, teacher, what about Cai Lin and the others? Have they come back or sent any messages during this time?" Xiao Yan asked Yao Lao.

He didn't sense any of Cai Lin's presence within the Star Realm, so they probably hadn't returned from the Northwest Continent yet.

It's been several dozen days since I last saw them, and I really miss them terribly.

"There was indeed some good news a while ago. Would you like to guess what it is?" The Yao Lao stroked his beard and smiled mysteriously.

"Good news?" Xiao Yan was taken aback, unable to immediately imagine what constituted good news.
