In the blink of an eye, two days have passed since Xiao Yan refined the seventh-grade pill, the Ancestor Transformation Pill. After a period of rest, Xiao Yan not only fully recovered all the energy consumed by refining pills over the past three months, but his aura also became more solid, and his condition was almost always at its peak. The powerful Origin Qi flowing like a flood in his meridians also made Xiao Yan feel comfortable all over.
A cool breeze blows gently, the moonlight is soft, the sky is vast and blue, and a few clouds drift by.
The warm sunlight streamed down from the sky, falling on people and bringing a warm and comfortable feeling. Coupled with the cool and refreshing breeze, being able to stroll in such an environment is truly one of life's greatest pleasures!
Walking slowly along the tree-lined path, Xiao Yan squinted slightly, not paying much attention to the scorching gazes coming from all around him.
Ever since he refined the Ancestor Transformation Pill, this gaze had been constantly by his side. Although it contained all sorts of meanings, Xiao Yan didn't care. If it were when he was younger, he might have felt resentful, but having experienced countless things and seen the vicissitudes of the world, he had already endured too much of this kind of thing. With his current temperament, it was difficult for him to be moved by it anymore.
Xiao Yan glanced indifferently at the gazes shot at him by the Xiao Clan members around him, and shook his head helplessly. His steps subtly changed, and in the next instant, his figure mysteriously disappeared from the street. Before the people around him could react, a lush forest appeared in front of Xiao Yan.
The back mountain of the Xiao Clan.
The lush greenery stretches to the horizon, like an endless green ocean. Standing in it, one feels the howling wind and swaying forest. Huge waves of emerald green, each a hundred feet long, sweep in from afar like Hai Xiao. Such a magnificent sight is truly astonishing.
Above the forest, Xiao Yan stood suspended in mid-air, glancing towards a certain direction in the mountains. The Great Elder, Xiao Zhen, was there. Although he hadn't seen the latter, with his current Spiritual Strength, he could sense that there seemed to be a pair of eyes watching him in this world. He didn't dare to be negligent and respectfully bowed in that direction before turning and flying straight towards a certain place in the mountains.
A moment later, Xiao Yan landed on a cliff. All around him was a lush forest, and at the edge of his vision, he could make out the general outline of the Xiao Clan. Behind him was a majestic mountain peak.
Stretching, Xiao Yan smiled contentedly, then found a relatively flat boulder and sat down cross-legged. He then flipped his hand, and a palm-sized jade slip fell into his palm. It was the ' Eight Emperor Seal Techniques ' that Ouyang Miao had given him in Shuyang City that day!
" The Eight Emperor Seal Techniques, I hope they will bring me some pleasant surprises!"
With his eyes fixed on the jade slip in his palm, Xiao Yan felt a surge of excitement. Although he didn't know much about this Dou Technique, he understood its power. He guessed that the Emperor Seal Art, which was famous among the Gu Clan back then, was already this powerful. Now that this improved ' Eight Emperor Seal Techniques ' was in his hands, its power should be even greater. Now that it had fallen into his hands, he would naturally have to study it carefully.
Holding the jade slip in one hand, Xiao Yan's mind stirred, and a wisp of Spiritual Strength quickly entered the jade slip. With his eyes half-closed and his mind slightly stirred, a piece of information entered Xiao Yan's mind along with the intervention of his Spiritual Strength.
After carefully studying the information in the jade slip, Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes after a while. A glint of light flashed in his dark eyes, and his joy intensified.
The Eight Emperor Seal Techniques are indeed an improved version of the Emperor Seal Art. Especially the last three seals, the Mountain and River Seal, the Heaven Flipping Seal, and the Firmament Seal, are incredibly powerful. Each seal alone is comparable to Human Class, Spirit Class, or Intent Class Dou Technique. If all the seals are understood and the eight seals are combined, their power can even rival the legendary Saint Class Dou Technique!
The Eight Emperor Seal Techniques are undeniably powerful!
What Xiao Yan was most relieved about was that the prerequisite for cultivating the last three seals was to use the first five seals as a foundation. Fortunately, even though the cultivation methods of the first five seals had changed, Xiao Yan's familiarity with the Emperor Seal Art meant that mastering them in a short time was not difficult. As for the last three seals, as high-level Dou Technique, one had to grasp their essence to unleash their true power, and Xiao Yan was completely confident in this!
The birth of the Eight Emperor Seal Techniques can be considered a derivative of the Emperor Seal Art to a certain extent. And all things in the world seek their roots. Xiao Yan has even mastered the Emperor Seal Art, so it is only natural that he can cultivate the last three seals of the Eight Emperor Seal Techniques!
"Call..."
After a long while, Xiao Yan finally put away the jade slip in his palm, slowly exhaled, closed his eyes again, and with a slight movement of his mind, a stream of information flowed through his heart. He then raised both hands, his ten fingers moving in unison, his fingertips changing hand seals. A familiar yet slightly different ' Emperor Seal Art ' was thus unleashed by Xiao Yan. At the same time, a more powerful fluctuation of Origin Qi than before rapidly condensed between Xiao Yan's hands.
" Mountain Splitting Seal! Sea Overturning Seal! Earth Covering Seal! Heaven Annihilating Seal! Ancient Emperor Seal!"
As the five seals merged into one, Xiao Yan let out a series of low shouts in his heart. At a certain moment, when Xiao Yan suddenly opened his eyes, a vast Origin Qi condensed into a profound hand seal in his palm. At the same time, a strong light also emerged. He pushed his hands forward with both hands, and then with a loud bang, shattered the void in front of him and crashed directly onto a boulder in a forest below.
"Boom!"
A heavy explosion suddenly resounded, the mountains and forests collapsed, and a large number of startled birds soared into the sky. At this moment, Xiao Yan had no time to pay attention to any of this. His gaze fell directly on the spot where the palm print had landed, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Regardless of other factors, the power of these five seals, which are roughly complete, far surpasses that of the previous Emperor Seal Art. At this level, it is already comparable to ordinary Human Class Dou Technique. If the last three seals of the Eight Emperor Seal Techniques are added, the power will naturally be unimaginable.
Xiao Yan smiled lightly, withdrew his gaze, and raised his hands again, forming a chaotic and strange hand seal in front of him, and a fierce energy gathered once more.
Although cultivation emphasizes gradual progress, since it's Dou Technique, it's best to strike while the iron is hot, especially with the clan gathering approaching. Having more trump cards is always a good thing.
While Xiao Yan was engrossed in cultivating the Eight Emperor Seal Techniques, within his Storage Ring, the strange pill that had fused the medicinal power of two other pills was also undergoing a peculiar fusion. A completely new power was quietly gathering within the pill...
