Under the influence of the great formation, the entire ancient tomb began to collapse. All the buildings inside shook violently, the void cracked, and spatial turbulence surged wildly within the tomb like giant pythons. The powerful force would terrify even Nine-Star Dou Di.
However, under Luo Ao's astonishingly powerful strength, those spatial turbulences were still swept away.
"Laugh!"
An astonishing wave of Dou Qi aura swept across the void like Hai Xiao. The silver void turbulence was instantly swept up by the Hai Xiao and turned into fragments in an instant. The path in front of Luo Ao was also quickly cleared away.
But it was precisely at this moment...
"Roar!"
With a low growl, a huge beast claw suddenly shot out from a spatial vortex, instantly tearing apart Luo Ao's Dou Qi wave in a single exchange!
"What!"
This scene caused a sudden change in the expression on Luo Ao's old face; this was the first time in all these years!
"Sizzle..."
Immediately after the enormous beast claw was exposed in the void, bolts of lightning shot out from the spatial vortex, and then the massive body of the mysterious beast gradually appeared before Luo Ao.
The behemoth's body was enormous, its body a deep, almost hollow color, as if it could devour everything. The behemoth had four limbs, with long forelimbs and short hind limbs, resembling a giant chimpanzee, but its terror far surpassed that of the latter.
Its enormous head resembled a lion, its naturally ferocious appearance inspiring awe. The lightning crackling around its body was even more astonishing, and its fierce aura emanated continuously from within. The void beneath its feet seemed as fragile as paper.
"This... this is..."
Upon seeing this behemoth, even with Luo Ao's composure, he couldn't help but feel a surge of intense excitement.
" Void Lightning Beast!"
"Roar!"
A deafening roar erupted from the giant beast's mouth, causing the invisible void to shatter layer by layer. Spatial vortexes continuously coalesced within the ancient tomb, and terrifying spatial turbulence swirled like a school of fish in the sea, devouring everything within the tomb.
In an instant, the entire ancient tomb collapsed...
At the very moment the ancient tomb collapsed, within the main hall, beneath Xiao Yan and his companion's feet, the ground cracked completely, and a golden array was activated...
Western Lin Region, Xilin Mountain Range.
Beneath the magma, a pair of enormous, scarlet beast eyes slowly opened at that moment.
Meanwhile, deep within the Xilin Mountain Range, atop a snow-capped peak, a beautiful woman in an ice-blue dress gazed involuntarily at the western horizon, her heart filled with unease.
Yan City.
Jin Yao was meditating in her private room. Recently, she had heard a lot about Xiao Yan. The thought that Xiao Yan was now able to stand on equal footing with the Four Great Sects filled her with inexplicable joy, which seemed to excite her even more than her own improvement in cultivation.
Suddenly, Jin Yao felt a sharp pain in her heart. Although it was only for a brief moment, it still caused her to suddenly open her eyes while cultivating. The moment she opened her eyes, the image of Xiao Yan involuntarily appeared in her mind.
With her delicate brows furrowed, Jin Yao looked westward through the window, a hint of worry creeping into her heart.
Meanwhile, in the Lengcui City, on the plaza, golden arrays were activated intermittently, their light flashing as figures moved about. This was the teleportation array connecting the Western Region to the Southern Region.
"Buzzing..."
As a golden light flashed across the square, a dozen or so people appeared as if by magic in the previously empty square.
Among the dozen or so people, a slightly disheveled old man in white robes was carrying a wine pot in one hand, his eyes scanning around. When he looked at the formation under his feet, a hint of disdain flashed deep in his eyes.
" Xiao Yan... kid, I've been looking everywhere for you!"
He couldn't help but mutter to himself, a look of weariness flashing across the old man's eyes. The continent was vast, and finding someone here was like finding a needle in a haystack. Even the information he had at this moment was something he had only recently learned by chance.
Of course, even so, he couldn't be completely sure that this was the person he was looking for based on the name alone, but whether it was or not, it was his only clue at the moment, and it was worth a try.
This old man was none other than Xiao Mingyuan, who had traveled all the way from the Central Region to this border of the continent in search of his family.
Carrying the wine jug in his hand, the old man took a step and walked towards the city. Just as he stepped out of the square, a young girl brushed past him.
"Um?"
The old man suddenly stopped, a slight surprise creeping into his heart. He turned his gaze and glanced at the young girl.
"How could the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan exist in this barren land of the continent?"
A thought of surprise crossed his mind, but the old man quickly shook his head, dismissing these unnecessary thoughts, and continued walking into the city.
The girl stepped onto the plaza, stood within the array, and looked up at the sky. Involuntarily, a figure dressed in black robes appeared in her mind. She had heard him say that he came from the Southern Region, and this time, she wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to train and see where he came from.
And this girl was none other than Murong Qianqian, who had left her family alone.
Years of training and growth have made the girl look much more mature than before, but there is still a hint of childishness on her pretty face.
A short while later, the formation was activated once again. With the continuous infusion of energy from the Spirit Stone, the formation was activated, and Murong Qianqian and the dozen or so people traveling with her disappeared from the square in the blink of an eye.
Meanwhile, Xiao Mingyuan strolled aimlessly through the city streets. He planned to rest for a day and inquire about Xiao Yan, before setting off the next day to search for his whereabouts.
As he strolled along leisurely, an old man in a brocade robe in a pavilion suddenly fixed his gaze on him.
The moment he saw the latter, the old man's eyes narrowed, a hint of fear flashing deep within them. He quickly and carefully withdrew his aura, and in the blink of an eye, the old man looked like an ordinary person without any Dou Qi. However, in this Lengcui City, no one would treat him as an ordinary person.
Zhang Yi, a steward of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion, the strongest person in Lengcui City, Two-Star Dou Di!
Watching Xiao Mingyuan's figure gradually disappear into the distance, a very subtle light flashed deep in Zhang Yi's eyes. After a long time, when Xiao Mingyuan's figure had completely disappeared, Zhang Yi clenched and unclenched his palm, and a bird materialized.
