Upon noticing the anomaly in the Great Dao of the Void, Xiao Yan was immediately surprised. Then, when he used his Spiritual Strength to probe the energy node that was so close at hand, he suddenly realized what was going on, and at the same time, a surge of joy quickly rose in his heart.
To Xiao Yan's utter surprise, the so-called energy node contained not spatial power at all, but the Power of the Great Dao!
The Power of the Great Dao Great Dao of the Void!
When the Power of the Great Dao within Xiao Yan's body was fully condensed in front of him, Xiao Yan was even more surprised to find that the Power of the Great Dao contained in this energy node was no less than that within his body, and was even more concentrated!
This means that if Xiao Yan could absorb all of these Power of the Great Dao, the number of tents he could condense would probably be at least twice as many as it is now!
It should be understood that cultivating the Power of the Great Dao is undoubtedly several times more difficult than cultivating Dou Qi and Origin Qi. Even with Shui Miao Xiao Yan is equivalent to ten more curtains. How could Xiao Yan possibly miss such a gift from heaven and earth!
With a thought, Xiao Yan controlled his own Great Dao of the Void, slowly bringing it closer to the energy node in front of him. Only when the two touched and he confirmed that the two forces did not cause any conflict did he breathe a sigh of relief. Then, with a tense feeling, he continued to connect and merge all the remaining Power of the Great Dao with it.
In the end, all the Power of the Great Dao within Xiao Yan's body merged with the energy node in front of him, and the volume occupied by the energy node also expanded considerably.
At the same time, the moment the two Great Power of the Great Dao successfully merged, Xiao Yan suddenly had a strange feeling, as if this originally ownerless energy node had suddenly found a master. A subtle connection arose between Xiao Yan and this energy node, and this connection allowed him to clearly understand all the changes within the energy node and the immense power it contained.
With this thought in mind, Xiao Yan's heart stirred. Although he dared not be completely confident, he still tried to control it by using the slight connection between himself and the energy node in front of him.
As Xiao Yan watched the large mass of dark energy begin to writhe, excitement welled up in his dark eyes. Sure enough, control of the energy node had fallen into Xiao Yan's hands. With his own share of the Power of the Great Dao, Xiao Yan successfully linked the two forces, ensuring that control of the energy node fell into Xiao Yan hands without any surprise!
Now, this energy node is completely under Xiao Yan's control!
In addition, after Xiao Yan's subsequent investigation, he also clearly realized that, just as the strong man said, the concept of time in this energy node is several times slower than that in the outside world. This means that if the special effect of this energy node is used, it is indeed not a problem to refine the Purple Jade Pill within ten days. In fact, this time will be much shorter than expected.
Meanwhile, the Lin She and the Heaven-Reaching Giant Ape outside were also anxiously awaiting news from Xiao Yan, though their purposes differed.
Just as the Lin She grew impatient and fixed its cold gaze on the Heaven-Reaching Giant Ape, Xiao Yan's voice suddenly echoed from inside the cave below.
" Lin She, I have successfully controlled this energy node. I'll leave the next few days to you!"
Hearing these words, the Lin She's tense mood finally calmed down. He replied, and when he looked at the Heaven-Reaching Giant Ape again, he found that even the latter had a joyful expression on his face. This made the Lin She wary. He then simply flashed down to the ground below and guarded the cave entrance, while keeping a close eye on the naked, muscular man in mid-air.
The latter didn't care about this at all. His focus was entirely on Xiao Yan, or rather, on the Purple Jade Pill that the latter was going to refine. As long as Xiao Yan could refine the Purple Jade Pill, his cultivation would be restored, and then he would no longer be afraid of this guy with triangular eyes.
Inside the cave, Xiao Yan's thoughts stirred, and an invisible force immediately spread out from the energy node, enveloping Xiao Yan and a small area around him. Instantly, Xiao Yan could clearly perceive that within the space enveloped by that force, both the density of the space itself and the speed of airflow within it changed in an instant, and even Xiao Yan's own breathing paused.
When he took another breath, he was so shocked that he felt as if he hadn't breathed for a long time. His face turned purplish-red in an instant. After about ten minutes, he finally calmed down and his eyes widened in anger. Even so, the deep shock in his eyes lingered for a long time.
After a long while, Xiao Yan, still shaken, sat cross-legged in the pitch-black space. With a flick of his finger, the azure-gold Luo Heavenly Cauldron appeared.
With the pill formula and some medicinal herbs given to him by the Heaven-Reaching Giant Ape, plus some of Xiao Yan's own reserves, he was able to barely gather enough medicinal herbs for five sets of pills. However, relatively speaking, this quantity was already quite considerable.
Afterwards, Xiao Yan quickly calmed his mind and stopped lingering. He opened his mouth wide, and a burst of raging Heavenly Flames erupted, flowing into the medicine cauldron in front of him. Then, with a flick of his finger, the Storage Ring on his finger flashed continuously, and precious medicinal herbs, which were considered priceless treasures in the outside world, flew out in a flash. Under the control of Xiao Yan's enormous Spiritual Strength, they were thrown into the medicine cauldron in front of him and refined at an astonishing speed.
Two days had passed quickly outside. The Lin She and the Heaven-Reaching Giant Ape were still facing each other at a great distance. Outside the Ancient Ruins, Leng Bingshuang, Xiao Yi Xian, and the others were all waiting patiently with different feelings. Among the silent crowd, one could tell how tense and worried Leng Bingshuang was just by looking at the furrowed brows.
Just as everyone was silent, Xiao Yi Xian, who was resting under a large tree not far from Leng Bingshuang, suddenly turned her gaze to Leng Bingshuang. After hesitating for a moment, she got up and walked towards Leng Bingshuang.
Upon approaching, Leng Bingshuang's gaze met the latter's. The two stood face to face, each seemingly having something to say, yet neither uttered a word.
After a long silence, it was still Xiao Yi Xian who opened her mouth slightly, her beautiful eyes flickering slightly before she hesitantly said:
"Can we go for a walk in the woods? I have something I want to tell you."
Upon hearing this, Leng Bingshuang hand, which was hooked around the corner of her long dress, trembled slightly. In the end, she released the hem of the dress from her fingers, nodded silently, and then, amidst the surprised and doubtful gazes of the people behind her, she moved into the woods.
