The pitch-black clouds continued to roll and sank towards the center, gradually forming a circular hole. The inside was as dark as ink, and wisps of black thunder continued to sputter out from it, emitting extremely strong pressure and destructive power, forcing the nine-colored thunder to collapse directly, as if it was not on the same level at all.

With its appearance, the strong winds in the abyss seemed to stop, and the world fell into an eerie silence until a thunderous sound rang out, and a black lightning as thick as an arm suddenly shot out from the black hole and fell fiercely towards the ninth-grade precious pill that was about to take shape below.

Wherever it passed, the space was torn apart with a hideous crack.

"Black magic thunder..." Yao Yan looked at the falling black thunder with a faint smile on his lips. Then he took a step forward, appeared in the air, and fiercely grasped the falling black magic thunder.

The energy of heaven and earth was raging, and under his control, it instantly condensed into an energy palm print that was as real as a physical object, tightly grasping the Black Demon Thunder.

"Boom~"

The black magic thunder filled with destructive power continued to riot, bombarding the energy palm print madly, making a piercing roar.

"It's quite powerful." Yao Yan commented, and he exerted force with his palm, directly shattering and exploding the black magic lightning. Suddenly, an energy storm that was powerful enough to destroy the world raged, and the space within a thousand feet radius turned into darkness at this moment.

Obviously, the space can no longer support this level of energy collision and it completely collapsed.

"His strength... is it really only at the peak of a one-star Dou Sheng?" Yao Ming's heart trembled slightly when he saw this scene. If it were him, he would definitely not be able to crush a black magic lightning so easily. What's more, Yao Yan had also refined a ninth-grade precious pill before, and he must have suffered great damage. But looking at Yao Yan's appearance, it seemed that nothing happened to him.

The strong feeling of oppression was so strong that even a two-star Douluo felt his scalp tingling.

When did the gap between the Fighting Saints become so huge!
above the sky.

As the violent energy rampage ended, the dark cracks in the space slowly repaired, and the pill beside Yao Yan was completely formed at this moment. The pill was purple-red in color, and as soon as it came out, a very strong energy wave burst out from it, and then it turned into a giant snake nearly a hundred feet long, howling towards the sky, and as it twisted its body, it shattered the space on one side, and then tried to escape into it.

Yao Yan remained motionless and just made hand gestures with one hand.

Suddenly.

Countless purple-blue flame lines shot out from the giant snake's body, exploding its energy body amid its shrill cries, like a layer of flame lines, binding the newly-produced Sky Snake Bone-Shedding Pill in mid-air.

"After spending such a huge price, how could I let you run away~" Yao Yan sighed in his heart, sucked it into his palm, and then put it into the jade bottle that had been prepared long ago.

An eighth-grade high-level elixir already possesses extraordinary intelligence, while a ninth-grade elixir is almost the same as a human being. It has just been born and does not yet have complete intelligence. If it is given some time to grow, it will be enough to grow up in the shortest time and even possess the combat power of a Dou Sheng level.

Unfortunately, the purpose of refining elixirs is not to create living beings... they come into being only to help people improve their strength.

“Cai Lin, swallow the pill. This pill can transform your body. Combined with the special environment here, it may be able to allow your bloodline to take a step further. Even if it doesn't work, it shouldn't be a problem for me to help you break through to the Fighting Saint level.” Yao Yan returned to the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron and handed the freshly-made Heavenly Snake Bone-Shedding Pill to Cai Lin, saying softly.

Cai Lin nodded slightly, took the pill, then looked at Yao Yan seriously, opened her red lips slightly, and said in a voice that showed a bit of unwillingness to admit defeat: "I will catch up with you!"

As soon as she finished speaking, colorful light flashed around her. The next moment, she turned into a colorful giant python with a slightly strange fragrance and sank into the lake on one side.

Yao Yan was also stunned when she heard this, and then she smiled and looked at Cai Lin who entered the Nine Netherworld. Her personality was still so arrogant.

"Young master, you have to work hard. If your cultivation level is caught up by your sister, I will definitely beat you up!" Caidie smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth, revealing a secret. It seems that Cai Lin has wanted to beat him up for a long time.

"It's okay. When the time comes, you can just help me." Yao Yan chuckled, then waved his hand and threw another ninth-level magic core into the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron. He continued to refine the Sky Snake Bone-Shedding Pill in the same way. In fact, this pill is more suitable for the colorful butterfly, because the original body of the colorful butterfly is the ancient sky snake.

Unfortunately, the bloodline of the Nine Netherworld Python clan is not pure enough. If there was pure ancient sky snake essence blood, perhaps Caidie could evolve into the ancient sky snake king, which would be a super monster that could compete with the Nine-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python!

Perhaps we should ask the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan about this matter.

As an ancient Warcraft family, and the only one that has been passed down to this day, they should have some inventory.

"Okay~" Caidie smiled sweetly and responded, selling her sister out directly. Then she watched Yaoyan making the elixir and asked with concern, "Sir, do you want to rest for a while?"

"No, there's no pressure... and for me, refining pills is also a process of cultivation." Yao Yan shook his head slightly and said softly. He wanted to use up the fighting spirit in his body by refining pills and use it to practice, but the energy consumed in refining the ninth-grade precious pill could not keep up with his own recovery speed.

After refining Ling'er, Yao Yan felt that his recovery ability had been improved again. That terrifying vitality... He even suspected that he could regenerate a broken arm.

However, none of the opponents he has met so far can put too much pressure on him.

Especially after he successfully cultivated the Ten Thousand Fire Clone, his survivability was further improved. People of the same level were not qualified to hurt him. Even those who were one star higher could not bring him much pressure, such as Yao Ming beside him.

In a head-on fight, Yao Yan is confident that he can easily kill the opponent, and he is even quite confident that he can defeat a three-star Douluo.

As for higher, forget it.

From four stars upwards, the strength will increase further, and the gap can no longer be made up by martial arts and fighting skills. Facing a four-star Douluo, Yao Yan can at most remain undefeated. As for killing him, he is not arrogant enough to that extent.

Unless you use the power of evil...

In the next half month, Yao Yan successfully refined the second Heavenly Snake Bone Shedding Pill. After watching Cai Die enter the lake for retreat, he turned to look at Yao Ming, who was a little numb, and said, "Let's go, take me to see the inheritance of Huangquan Demon Saint."

As for the Nine Yin Yellow Spring Pill that assists in refining the Pure Lotus Demon Fire, he is not in a hurry to refine it. It will still be some years before the Pure Lotus Demon Fire is born. When it is born, his strength should be further improved, and he might be able to refine higher-level pills by then.

There is no need to rush to refine the pill now!
Yao Ming looked at Yao Yan who looked like nothing had happened, and could only sigh in his heart, "What a monster!" He had never seen an alchemist refine pills so easily. He refined two ninth-grade precious pills in succession, and his aura did not weaken at all, as if he was always in his prime. It was outrageous. "Sir, do you want to rest for a few days?"

"Need not."

Yao Ming nodded slightly, and then took Yao Yan to the inheritance site of Huangquan Demon Saint. Along the way, he did not forget to introduce Yao Yan: "Although I don't know where you got the news from, but our clan does have a stone tablet left by him, which records his unique skills. In addition, the stone tablet also contains his blood essence!"

"You have seen Huangquan Finger and Huangquan Palm before. The former is a low-level Heavenly Rank fighting skill, and the latter is an intermediate Heavenly Rank fighting skill. They are recorded on the stone tablet and can be learned directly. However, the other high-level Heavenly Rank fighting skill Huangquan Sky Wrath cannot be learned directly. It is placed in the deepest part of the stone tablet together with the blood essence of the Demon Saint and is guarded by the residual soul of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint. If you don't get his recognition, you can't learn it at all."

“And Huangquan Demon Saint was a half-step emperor when he was alive. Even a wisp of his soul is extremely terrifying. Without the soul power of the heavenly realm, you can’t even see him!”

"But with your soul power, it shouldn't be a big problem!"

Yao Yan nodded, and soon followed Yao Ming to an ancient altar. In the center of the altar stood a pale yellow stone tablet about a hundred feet in size. It stood there lonely, and an ancient atmosphere filled the air, as if it had existed forever.

There are many strange runes engraved on the stone tablet, and there is a strange light flashing faintly. In addition, there is a huge finger and a palm print half a meter deep carved on it. Some strange information emanates from it, and it seems that it can be easily obtained by reading it with soul power. These contents are naturally the practice methods of Huangquan Finger and Huangquan Palm.

“The Yellow Spring Finger can end life and death... The Yellow Spring Heavenly Wrath can shatter human souls!” Yao Yan whispered about the unique skills of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint. The opponent's reputation was no less than that of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint, and both were very close to the Emperor Realm. However, the way forward was blocked, and without source energy, they could only be stuck in that realm until their lifespan ended.

Perhaps it is also possible to wander in the endless void until death.

Without the strength of the Emperor Realm, stepping into the endless void will obviously have only one outcome. After all, this world has long been sealed by many Dou Emperors. Without the strength of the Emperor Realm, how can one get out? Even if one is a Half-Emperor, the only outcome is a regret.

Yao Ming bowed respectfully to the stone tablet, and then said to Yao Yan: "Young Master, this stone tablet is the inheritance of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint. The three kinds of heavenly fighting skills and blood essence are all in it. As for whether you can obtain it, it depends on you."

Yao Yan nodded slightly. He could naturally feel the soul pressure contained in it. That was the soul power at the emperor level. Even if it was just a remnant soul, it was definitely not something that the ordinary heavenly level soul power could contend with.

However, his soul power has reached the end of the heavenly realm and is only one step away from the emperor realm, so he is not very afraid.

He simply took a step forward, and the soul power between his eyebrows was released, condensing into a soul entity directly in front of him. He took a step into the stone tablet. As he stepped into it, the scenery in front of him changed rapidly, and soon a vast world appeared.

The terrifying soul pressure swept over, thunder flashed in the sky, and it was a scene of doomsday.

"boom!"

Yao Yan had just stood firm when the sky suddenly changed color. The dark clouds seemed to split apart, and a huge dark yellow finger fell. It was even more domineering than the Yellow Spring Finger that Yao Xiaotian had used. It was filled with the momentum of crushing the heaven and earth, and it slammed down towards Yao Yan.

His body did not move, and his invisible soul power swept across, directly shattering the falling Yellow Spring Finger.

"Wow~"

Almost at the same time, a huge palm print emerged from the ground and clenched heavily towards Yao Yan.

Yao Yan stepped on the void, and his powerful soul force turned into a shock force, shattering the Huangquan Palm that had not yet fully formed. Then he locked his eyes on a void and said calmly: "Senior, in your current state, you can't be my opponent."

"Arrogant youngster! Do you think that a spiritual realm of the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection can defeat me? The soul level of this lord in his lifetime has surpassed the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection and stepped into the Emperor Realm!"

Along with a cold snort, a mountain suddenly broke through the ground not far ahead, rose from the ground, and finally stood tall. On the top of the mountain, there was a huge throne. On the throne, a figure in a yellow fur robe sat upright. An aura that made even the heaven and earth tremble slowly spread.

“If the senior were still alive, I would naturally not dare to be presumptuous, but now the senior is only a remnant soul left…” Yao Yan shook his head slightly and sighed softly.

"How dare you!" The figure growled, suddenly stood up, and swept towards Yao Yan with a powerful spiritual pressure.

"Senior, are you still alive today because you are unwilling to give up?" Yao Yan asked softly. At the same time, his soul body underwent a strange change. A vertical pupil with a faint golden light opened between his eyebrows. An indescribable devouring force rippled out from it and began to engulf everything around.

The heaven and earth began to collapse, turning into fragments that sank into Yao Yan's soul, causing his aura to continue to grow stronger.

"?!" The figure was also quite surprised when he saw this scene, "Void Devouring Flame? No, young man, what kind of power do you have? You can actually devour my soul power!"

"The power above the Douqi Continent." Yao Yan said calmly.

"Above..." The figure's eyes showed surprise and doubt, and his soul was stunned for a moment, and then his body was pierced by a purple-black stream of light. The purple-black stream of light was actually a soul chain, which shot out from the vertical pupil between Yao Yan's eyebrows and sank into his soul.

"Wow~"

As the chain pulled, the remnant soul in front of him had no power to resist and was pulled into the vertical pupil. The evil power filled in it instantly poured into the remnant soul, absorbing it.

"The power of the Soul-Devouring Clan? No, this is not... Boy, who are you?" The remnant soul let out a shrill scream before dying.

The sound quickly dissipated.

The vertical pupil between Yao Yan's eyebrows flashed a streak of evil purple light, then slowly closed, turning into a faint fine line imprinted on the center of his eyebrows. At the same time, the cultivation methods and insights of Huangquan Finger, Huangquan Palm and Huangquan Skywrath all flooded into his mind.

"It saves me a lot of trouble." Yao Yan's lips curled up slightly, and then his eyes looked at the ball of golden liquid left by the other party. The liquid contained a faint pressure and pure energy, which seemed to have a good effect on the soul body.

It is obviously the blood essence left by Huangquan Demon Saint! (End of this chapter)
