Unlike the square pavilions seen from the outside, the space inside the Heaven-Nurturing Pavilion is a huge circle. Looking closely, the entire space appears particularly spacious, with only a spiral staircase in the center of the hall leading directly to the second floor.
On the walls surrounding the hall, countless neatly arranged storage cabinets were divided within the incredibly hard black walls. At intervals, there was an empty space between the cabinets, with huge characters of different colors engraved on them, each corresponding to different levels and attributes of Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills. As far as this hall was concerned, the highest level was that of Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills that had reached the Human Class.
As far as the eye could see, the countless storage cabinets were filled to the brim with all sorts of Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills. The Xiao Clan's collection was truly terrifying!
Unfortunately, what Xiao Yan needed was clearly not in the lobby on this floor.
After a moment of amazement, Xiao Yan strolled up the stairs leading to the second floor.
Compared to the first floor, the second floor is a bit smaller, and the way the items are arranged has also changed. In addition to the cabinets on the walls, there are rows of storage shelves made of the same material as the walls. The items stored on them have also increased to include pills. The level of all the items on the second floor has reached the Spirit Class, and some of the pills have even reached the seventh rank.
On the third floor, the space in the hall became increasingly cramped, and the cultivation techniques here were at least at the Intent Grade. The air was filled with the fragrance of pills, which allowed Xiao Yan to judge that the pills stored on this floor were at least at the seventh level.
Arriving at a row of cabinets specifically for storing pills, Xiao Yan gazed at the row of jade boxes exuding a chilling aura and couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration. Even with his current strength of Spiritual Strength, he wasn't very confident in refining seventh-grade pills, yet here, there were at least ten of them displayed. Such a number would surely cause quite a stir if it were taken outside!
In addition, Xiao Yan also saw several sixth-order Formation Plate. Although this level was not low, and being able to place them on the third floor of the Heaven-Nurturing Pavilion was a great honor in the eyes of ordinary people, Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
Compared to elixirs, Formation Plate are much rarer on the continent, especially high-level Formation Plate, which are practically priceless and unavailable. Ordinary forces can't even see them. It's already quite remarkable to see a sixth-order Formation Plate in the Heaven-Nurturing Pavilion of the Xiao Clan. After all, even the Heavenly Cloud Manor, which specializes in array formations, can't produce many.
On three black stone platforms, three semi-circular energy shields were placed upside down like large bowls. Beneath the solid energy shields lay three scrolls of different colors, which was the only special feature of the entire third floor.
The three scrolls were none other than the Three Gods' Wraths of the Xiao Clan: the Wind God's Fury of the Wind God, the Thunder God's Fury, and the Fire God's Wrath.
With a slightly burning gaze, Xiao Yan looked at the crimson scroll with purple patterns beneath the light barrier, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
" Fire God's Wrath, it's definitely you."
Faced with the scroll so close at hand, Xiao Yan was not in a hurry. Instead, he exhaled lightly, slowly extended his palm, and placed it against the seemingly thin light barrier. He applied slight pressure with his palm, and immediately felt a strong rebound force surge out, causing Xiao Yan's palm to tremble slightly.
"Their defensive capabilities are not bad."
After roughly measuring the defensive strength of the light shield, Xiao Yan smiled faintly, then took a half step back, clenched his right fist, and as the Origin Qi condensed in his palm, a golden stream of light flowed across his entire arm.
"Drink!"
His slightly closed eyes suddenly snapped open, and his raised right fist slammed down in an instant. In the blink of an eye, as the space in front of him distorted, his fist had already slammed heavily into the light barrier!
"Clang!"
With a deafening roar, ripples spread rapidly from the point of impact like surging waves. The entire light barrier trembled violently, yet it showed no signs of breaking. Strong rebounding forces continued to surge outward, attempting to withstand Xiao Yan's punch.
" Strength Elephant Art, Break!"
With a low shout in his heart, Xiao Yan's right arm suddenly trembled, and a surge of power rushed from his arm all the way up, finally attacking the light barrier like a volcanic eruption.
"Bang!"
In the next instant, the light barrier was blasted apart by the terrifying impact of this power, and the crimson scroll beneath it finally came into Xiao Yan's view.
Xiao Yan slowly exhaled, his arm suddenly trembled, his robes billowed, and a series of cracking sounds of bones colliding rang out before he gradually relaxed.
Since entering the Xiao Clan, Xiao Yan has finally made a real move. The collision between his bones swept away all the fatigue that had accumulated in his body over the past half month, and he even became much more energetic.
With a satisfied smile, Xiao Yan looked at the scroll on the stone platform again. It was enveloped in a crimson light, like a real flame, and seemed to be able to burst into flames with just a little encouragement.
The next moment, the instant Xiao Yan reached out and grasped the scroll, the entire scroll trembled violently, and a raging flame suddenly rose from it, seemingly trying to climb onto his arm as if to devour him.
"It even has the ability to defend itself? That's quite rare."
He murmured something softly, then with a thought, he slightly tightened his grip on the scroll. In an instant, the flames surging from it vanished, and the violently shaking scroll immediately calmed down. Seeing this, Xiao Yan casually put it into his Storage Ring.
Having done all this, Xiao Yan, who should have left, did not stop there. Instead, he lifted his foot and came to the steps again, intending to step onto the fourth floor of the Heaven-Nurturing Pavilion.
"Buzz!"
However, just as Xiao Yan was about to step onto the steps, an invisible barrier instantly condensed in the previously calm void in front of him, blocking his way forward.
Startled, Xiao Yan immediately took a few steps back. His expression changed, and his serious gaze swept rapidly across the surrounding space, but he didn't see a single person. He then said in a low, deep voice:
"What do you mean by this, senior?"
"Hmph, kid, don't you know the rules of the Heaven-Nurturing Pavilion!"
In the empty hall, a hoarse, aged voice inexplicably rang out, and the oppressive aura contained within it immediately descended upon Xiao Yan's head, causing his emotions to grow increasingly heavy.
