In less than a cup of tea, the stone tablet in the center of the altar suddenly burst into a dazzling light. Along with the distortion of space, a soul body as real as a substance stepped out into the air carrying a ball of golden liquid. It glanced at the somewhat shocked Yao Ming, then turned into a stream of light and sank into the body.

So fast... Yao Ming was shocked when he saw all this.

The inheritance in the stone tablet was left by the Yellow Spring Demon Saint. When he was alive, he was a powerful half-emperor. A two-star Douluo could not even get close to the inheritance he left behind. However, Yao Yan brought back the inheritance and blood essence in just a cup of tea.

Could it be that Huangquan Demon Saint didn't set any tests? !

Yao Yan did not explain anything for Yao Ming, and calmly said: "You go there in person and help me check whether there are any Dou Sheng relics left in the Beast Skeleton Mountain Range. If there are, come back and tell me. And these two people are also my people. If you meet them, take care of them... This is your reward."

He snapped his fingers and threw a drop of Demon Saint's blood to Yao Ming, helping him to recover his strength as soon as possible. The other party had stayed at the bottom of the Jiuyou Yellow Springs Lake for hundreds of years. With the help of this drop of Demon Saint's blood, he should have a good chance of becoming a three-star Douluo.

Afterwards, he used his soul power to tell Yao Ming the information about the ruins and the appearance of Xiao Yixiang and others.

"Thank you, young master!" When Yao Ming saw the golden blood essence flying in front of him, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and his tone became more enthusiastic, and he spoke more respectfully.

"I won't let you work in vain. If you perform well, the position of Lord of the Beast Domain will be yours in the future!" Yao Yan promised, then took a step forward and headed towards the Nine Netherworld. He planned to absorb the essence and blood of the Demon Saint there.

As for the safety issue… he actually hoped that someone would come and cause trouble.

Yao Ming watched Yao Yan leave, then sucked the blood essence of the Demon Saint in his hand into his mouth, his eyes flickering. Now he can basically confirm Yao Yan's identity. The other party should be a member of the Soul Clan, and his identity and status are definitely extraordinary. It can be seen from the other party's age and strength, not to mention that he has 'Void Devouring Flame' following him!
Therefore, he treated Yao Yan's words very carefully.

Yao Yan's sudden words made Yao Ming think more about it.

Now the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan is in hiding, and the Tianyao Phoenix Clan is the only one in power... According to Yao Yan's meaning, could it be that the Soul Clan is going to take action against the Tianyao Phoenix Clan? !
If this is the case, it will undoubtedly be a good thing for the Nine Netherworld Python clan!
Yao Ming took a deep breath and immediately went to arrange what Yao Yan had asked. The Beast Skeleton Mountain Range was originally the territory of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, so it was not a difficult task to find it. However, he didn't know what the ruins that Yao Yan mentioned were like that made him, the Fighting Saint, go there in person.

……

In the Nine Netherworld, the cold and gloomy air turned into a strong wind that swept across the deep ravine.

For Yao Yan, this place is indeed a good place for retreat. Even low-level Dou Zuns are not qualified to penetrate the strong wind formed by the cold and gloomy energy. As for Dou Sheng... When your strength reaches this level, you will not be safe no matter where you hide.

He sat cross-legged in the void, the ball of demon saint's blood essence having been swallowed into his stomach. It was tempered with the purple-blue flame that Ling'er was breathing out, turning it into streams of the purest energy that were infused into his limbs and bones, allowing his transformed body to be further strengthened, expanded, and increased in size!
As for the violent aura that fills the energy.

Yao Yan was not afraid at all. With his current physical body, even if these violent auras washed over him, it would hardly have any effect on him. Instead, they were quickly absorbed and compatible by his physical body, turning into streams of original power that merged into his body and the Chaos Fetus, making his aura gradually stronger, and he took a fierce step towards the two-star Douluo.

As he gradually entered a deeper level of seclusion, the energy contained in the deep ravine of the Nine Netherworld also poured into his body frantically, like an invisible black hole, not even sparing the cold and gloomy air around it, swallowing it all into his body until it sank into the chaotic fetus, and then under its transformation, it turned into streams of pure energy that merged into his body.

"This Chaos Fetus seems to be evolving as well!" Yao Yan felt all of this and had some inexplicable feelings in his heart. The Chaos Fetus he condensed was slowly transforming as his strength increased. Unfortunately, the resources he currently had were not enough for it to completely transform.

Today's Chaos Embryo is just a prototype and has not even been formed.

But even so, it also possesses some unique abilities, such as accommodating and decomposing various types of energy. Even the extremely yin energy contained in the Nine Netherworld can be absorbed as energy for cultivation, and even fed back to Yao Yan.

This alone makes it worthwhile for Yao Yan to spend so much effort to condense it.

The only regret is that it is too "immature" and has too small an appetite to fully satisfy Yao Yan's cultivation. Otherwise, the Nine Netherworld below would be a good place for retreat.

"This is the road to the future, not the present!" Yao Yan's mind moved slightly, and he suppressed those thoughts. Then he calmed down completely and began to break through. The energy in his body has accumulated enough to enter the two-star level!

As the Burning Decree operated at a high speed, the aura around him began to surge, increasing rapidly at an exaggerated speed. In just a dozen breaths, it increased several times, and continued to increase at a speed visible to the naked eye. The terrifying energy pressure swept across the world, and the surrounding space was twisting and cracking, as if it could not withstand this level of energy at all.

The surrounding mountains began to crack and collapse due to the impact of this pressure.

"Wow~"

Soon, the world suddenly became quiet, and all the energy and pressure receded like a tide.

Yao Yan slowly opened his eyes, a purple-blue flame flickered in the depths of his pupils, and then slowly disappeared. There was no strong aura around him, just like an ordinary person. He sat cross-legged in the void, raised his hands and clenched them, and an indescribable power surged into his heart.

Two-star Dou Sheng late stage!

The blood essence left by Huangquan Demon Saint allowed Yao Yan to directly enter the two-star Dou Sheng and step into the late stage of two-star Dou Sheng.

"It's worthy of being the level of a Douluo Saint... The difference of one star is really a world of difference!" Yao Yan clenched his fists, feeling the Douluo Qi in his body which was more than ten times stronger. He sighed sincerely in his heart. Compared with the peak of a one-star Douluo Saint, the late stage of a two-star Douluo Saint is really much stronger, which can be called a qualitative change.

"Unfortunately, the soul power seems to have reached its limit. If I want to break through, I can only rely on external objects!" Yao Yan felt quite regretful. This breakthrough did not bring any growth to his soul power.

In fact, for ordinary people, soul power is generally constant. Unless there are special insights and opportunities, there is a chance for further growth.

For example, aura, soul origin and so on.

Unfortunately, the spiritual energy of the Douqi Continent is not complete and cannot help Yao Yan's soul continue to grow. The power contained in his bloodline cannot allow Yao Yan's soul power to reach the sky in one step. If he wants to break into the emperor realm, he can only rely on years of slow training, or take shortcuts!

"The Soul Palace's Soul Origin is not mine... so the only one left is the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb!" Yao Yan's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he thought to himself, "Or maybe..."

He raised his hand and touched the fine lines between his eyebrows. This was an ability he had discovered after breaking through to Dou Sheng. He didn't know if the vertical pupil between his eyebrows had undergone a mutation, but it could directly absorb the souls of others without being affected by the other person's soul memory or personality. Even those emotions could become nutrients that nourished its growth.

If he could make use of its abilities, Yao Yan felt that he could be promoted to the Emperor Realm by absorbing a large number of Fighting Saint souls.

But doing so would cause too much noise!

In comparison, it is most appropriate to grow with the help of the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb!
"...No rush, let's improve our strength first!" Yao Yan suppressed these thoughts, and then took out the soul bodies of the Heavenly Dragon Saint and the Gray-robed Great Elder. Under the frightened gaze of the two, the fine lines between his eyebrows turned into an evil vertical pupil, and two purple-black soul chains shot out from it and sank into the bodies of the two.

"Damn it, what is this thing? You bastard from the Soul Clan, I curse you to die a miserable death!!"

"Sir, spare your life!"

The two were responded by ice-cold soul chains.

"Wow~"

Accompanied by the clear and pleasant sound of chains, the two souls were pulled into the vertical pupils, and then submerged in evil energy. The essence of the souls all poured into the evil eye, nourishing Yao Yan's soul, and also bringing back the memories of the two before their death.

"The improvement is not significant. If you want to break through the Emperor Realm, you will need at least a hundred quantities..." Yao Yan shook his head and completely suppressed his thoughts.

Slaughtering nearly a hundred people with heavenly-level soul power...it would be easier than just slaughtering the city.

However, even the Soul Palace doesn't dare to do such a thing openly!
"Hehehe~ The young master has broken through to the late two-star Douluo?!" Tianzihuo's figure suddenly appeared beside Yao Yan. The ghost face surrounded by black flames had a strange smile and looked at Yao Yan with surprise.

How long has it been? It doesn’t even seem like three months.

Yao Yan actually broke through from the peak of one-star Douluo to the late stage of two-star Douluo. The speed of his strength improvement was simply outrageous, and even within the Soul Clan, it was rare.

"Well, it's the day we agreed on." Yao Yan nodded slightly, looked at the ghost face in front of him, and smiled softly.

Since the other party has brought it to his door, he won't be polite!
"Hehehe, then young master, do you want to refine me now~" Tianzihuo looked at Yao Yan with the same ill intention, revealing a wicked smile, and asked in a low voice.

"Of course, the strange fire in my body does need a strange fire spirit!" Yao Yan restrained his smile, nodded solemnly, and then stretched out his hand to Tianzi Fire, indicating that the other party could enter his body.

"Then here I come~" Tianzihuo smiled and immediately transformed into a ray of inky black flame, which could not wait to merge into Yaoyan's body.

Almost at the moment when the Emperor's Fire entered his body, a hint of amusement flashed in Yao Yan's eyes. He then closed his eyes, let his consciousness enter his body, wrapped the Emperor's Fire with his fighting spirit, and began to devour it along the route of the Burning Decision.

With the intelligence of the Emperor's Fire, there is no need to go through the refining step, it can be swallowed directly!

“Hiss~” Tianzihuo also took a breath of cold air and said in disbelief: “Young Master, what kind of technique are you practicing that can actually integrate the essence of strange fire into your body... Take it easy, I can’t handle it!”

It had a look of fear in its eyes. If it hadn't completely merged into Yao Yan's body, it wouldn't have been able to discover this... When would the human race be able to completely devour the strange fire? !
Wasn't it 'borrowed' in the past? !
Even if it is refined, it can remain absolutely complete, but Yao Yan's devouring seems to completely strip away everything from it.

To be honest, it was a little panicked. This was completely different from what the owner said!
If my essence was completely devoured by Yao Yan, would I still be able to control this body? !

The results are obvious!
Yao Yan coaxed softly, "It's okay, relax. When your origin merges with my alien fire origin, you will be able to take the leading position and control the eight kinds of alien fire in my body... Including you, it will be nine kinds. In the future, you will be the one and only fire spirit in the Douqi Continent. With the origin of the nine kinds of alien fire, your future will definitely be brighter than that of Void Devouring Flame. It is still unknown whether you will surpass him in the future!"

"Really...really?" Tianzihuo was obviously very intelligent. His greed was quickly aroused by Yao Yan and his mind was in turmoil.

It also has a lot of thoughts in its mind and is very confident in itself.

Because even if he was controlled by Yao Yan and could not occupy Yao Yan's body in the future, he could use the power of the master to forcibly occupy Yao Yan's body. Now he was just pretending to cooperate... How could humans be qualified to control it!

The plan of Void Devouring Flame is not only about Yao Yan, he is just an insignificant chess piece. If he did not have a special physique, why would he, the Emperor of Fire, need to take action personally!
Since he wants to swallow it, let him swallow it!
Tianzihuo sneered in his heart. It possessed part of the origin of the Void Devouring Flame, which was not so easy to swallow. In the future, Yaoyan would definitely pay the price for today's decision!
"Of course it's true~" Yao Yan coaxed sincerely, and at the same time increased the speed of swallowing. With the active cooperation of Tianzi Fire, the speed of swallowing was quite fast. At the same time, the Burning Decree that had not changed for a long time also changed again. Waves of tremendous energy poured into his limbs and bones, pushing his strength, which had just entered the late stage of the two-star Dou Sheng, to continue to grow.

In just a few days, Yao Yan's strength increased again and he reached the peak of the two-star Douluo.

The purple-blue flames surrounding his body gradually gained a unique black flame, which gave Yao Yan's fighting spirit a special devouring property. At the same time, the speed of refining was further increased, and the absorption became more rapid.

Having lost a large amount of its origin, the Emperor's Fire gradually began to weaken and was even about to fall into a coma.

"Young master, I... I can't go on!" Tian Zihuo cried out weakly. The ghost face could no longer be maintained, and it seemed that he was about to completely return to the state of black flame.

"Go to sleep. When you wake up, you will be the only strange fire in the world, a fusion of the origins of nine kinds of strange fires!" Even at this point, Yao Yan still did not forget to paint a big picture for the Emperor's Fire. He showed enough respect to this strange fire that was no different from any other fire in the world.

"Hehehe... I'm looking forward to it~" The Emperor of Fire laughed and fell into a deep sleep.

"Ling'er, start eating~" Yaoyan said in a cheerful voice.

"嘤嘤~"

With a crisp cry, Ling'er, with a pair of big furry ears erect, ran towards the body of Tianzihuo on chubby feet, with a hint of drool at the corner of her mouth... as if she was hungry!
But Tianzihuo was obviously unaware of all this, as he was sleeping soundly! (End of this chapter)
