"Farewell, senior!" Yao Yan bowed respectfully in the direction where Xiao Xuan left. He was able to break through the Emperor Realm thanks to Xiao Xuan's help. No matter whether he had other calculations in doing so, it didn't matter to Yao Yan, because he had already got what he wanted.

His soul has entered the Emperor Realm. Now there are no more than five people in the entire Douqi Continent who can pose a threat to him. After that, many things will become simple.

One step at a time, one step at a time.

Perhaps Xiao Xuan just wanted to train an opponent for Emperor Hun Tian and disgust him.

But the benefits Yaoyan obtained were real.

"What did Senior Xiao Xuan say to you before he left?" Yao Yan slowly stood up, turned to look at Gu Xun'er and asked.

"He told me a few days ago that this world can no longer produce Dou Di. If you want to break through to Dou Di, you must have a special energy, which he calls the original emperor energy... There is an emperor-grade embryo pill in Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's cave, and if you want to refine emperor-grade pills, the original emperor energy is indispensable. So, if you want to break through to Dou Di, this emperor-grade embryo pill may be the last chance!" Gu Xun'er looked heavy, looked at Yao Yan, and said in a concentrated voice: "Emperor Hun Tian knew this news a long time ago!"

"I know what Senior Xiao Xuan meant. He told you this to remind us that Emperor Hun Tian will not let go of this opportunity. He hopes that we can stop him... or compete with him for this last chance!" Yao Yan said calmly without changing his expression.

"...What do you think?" Gu Xun'er pondered for a moment and asked Yao Yan. Looking at his calm face, she found that she seemed to have never seen through him.

Just like when he was young, even now that he has broken through to the level of a Douluo, Yao Yan seems to have always been shrouded in a layer of mystery. No one has ever been able to see clearly, nor has anyone been able to see through his true inner thoughts. He seems to have been hiding something.

"I have never believed in Emperor Hun Tian, ​​nor have I ever believed that he would pave the way for me. But he was right about one thing. The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave will eventually be opened. Even if their generation does not open it, I will open it in the future... It's just a matter of whether you and I have the ability to fight for that last chance." Yao Yan said slowly.

There was a pause.

He continued, "Including the Ancient Clan, your father is also the last strong contender... What I have to do now is to work hard to improve my strength until I am able to participate and compete for that Emperor Grade Young Pill to break through to the Dou Emperor!"

"By then, your father might also be my opponent." Yao Yan smiled slightly, looked at Gu Xun'er, and said softly.

Gu Xun'er remained silent. She knew that everything Yao Yan said was very likely to happen. If that day really came, perhaps everything now would be destroyed until someone successfully broke through to the Dou Di level.

"Don't think about it. That will be a long time in the future. Let's take it one step at a time. We are still very weak now and have no strength. Everything is just castles in the air. No matter how much you say, it will be useless." Yao Yan reached out and hugged Gu Xun'er in his arms, holding her soft and boneless body, and comforted her.

"The Fighting Saint is still weak~" Gu Xun'er said, looking at Yao Yan with anger and amusement after hearing this.

If people outside heard what Yao Yan said, it would probably make a lot of people angry to death. After all, in such a huge Douqi Continent, there are only a few Dou Shengs. They are all standing at the top of the pyramid and cannot be compared with the weak no matter how you think about it.

Yao Yan did not explain anything. He glanced at Xiao Ning, who was in a stable state, and said, "It won't be long before the Heavenly Tomb closes. Let's practice and strive to make further progress."

Gu Xun'er's elegant eyes flickered slightly, and then she nodded and said, "Okay!"

Yao Yan and Gu Xun'er flashed out of the tomb, and the two stood in the void. He raised his hand slightly, and ten strange fire origins emerged from his palm. The next moment, they shot out in all directions, sweeping waves of fire along the way. In a flash, they turned into ten strange fire spirits thousands of feet tall standing between heaven and earth.

As his soul realm entered the emperor realm, the inheritance seal in the Nine Dragon Thunder Fire was forcibly torn apart, and the essence within it was completely devoured by Yao Yan, and he could control it perfectly.

Yao Yan controlled ten strange fire spirits to form a formation. The next moment, a fire formation that could cover the entire third level of the Heavenly Tomb emerged. The terrifying formation patterns filled the sky and earth, emitting an aura that could destroy the world. Countless energy bodies were disintegrated in an instant, turning into energy crystals that were melted by the formation and turned into energy tides that converged towards the center.

With his current emperor soul, he can use ten kinds of strange fire to arrange the Fire Array. Its terrifying power is enough to make even an eight-star Douluo fear it.

What's more, the Dou Sheng energy bodies in the third layer, the strongest among them are only three or four-star Dou Sheng, and they are easily refined and transformed into the purest energy and integrated into the formation. At the same time, their life marks are all collected by Yao Yan and absorbed into the vertical pupils between his eyebrows.

When he breaks through to become the Dou Emperor in the future, these life marks may not be impossible to revive and become his subordinates, and the Heavenly Tomb can also serve as the base camp of the future underworld!

Gu Xun'er sat cross-legged in the air, practicing her kung fu, and entered a deep state of retreat.

The same goes for Yao Yan. He wants to use this period of time to improve his strength to the peak of a five-star Douluo. As for a six-star Douluo, more than two years is obviously not enough. The later the Douluo advances, the more energy required will increase exponentially.

Perhaps I have to find a way to obtain cultivation resources from the major imperial clans, so that I can quickly break into the six-star or even seven-star level!
But now, let’s loot the third level of the Heavenly Tomb first!
He slowly closed his eyes, his body was covered by the energy of heaven and earth, every pore was swallowing and exhaling tremendous energy, nourishing the fighting spirit in his body to move towards a higher level!

……

Two years later.

Xiao Xuan’s tomb, inside the blood pool.

The originally scarlet water in the pool has become crystal clear, and the aura around Xiao Ning is purer than before. The mixed blood power in his body has been completely eliminated by the blood power of the Xiao clan. As the pure imperial blood flows in his body, a faint clan pattern floats between his eyebrows, making his aura become even more powerful.

"Boom~"

On this day, Xiao Ning opened his eyes and a gleam of light emerged. The powerful aura of the peak Nine-Star Dou Zun swept over him instantly, and the clear pool water around him instantly splashed around. Feeling the majestic and pure Dou Qi in his body, his face showed ecstasy, and he clenched his fists suddenly. He inexplicably had an urge to roar to the sky.

Until an illusory soul emerged in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Ancestor?!" Xiao Ning was stunned when he saw the figure.

"By the time you see this message, the waste blood in your body should have been removed. I have left in this soul the method to open the Xiao clan's clan pattern and the improvement of your practice... The practice you practice is indeed very special. If you can really find a way to contain the power of the bloodlines of various clans and melt them into one, you may be able to embark on a path to become a truly powerful person." After a pause, Xiao Xuan continued, "I have reached an agreement with the person who brought you here. He will help you break through to the Dou Sheng level. With his identity as a ninth-grade alchemist, it is not difficult for him to do this... After you break through to the Dou Sheng level, you can continue to practice this practice and try to see if you can reach the end of it."

"From him, I also learned that there was still one person alive in the Xiao clan. His name was Xiao Chen. He was my cousin and also your ancestor. He was trapped in the demon fire space of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire. When the Pure Lotus Demon Fire is activated in the future, you must go to pick him up."

"The person who brought you here also agreed to help... This is all I can do."

“When you rescue Xiao Chen in the future, tell him to remember not to get involved in the fights among the imperial clans, especially the upcoming fight for the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor’s cave residence. Just wait and see how the situation develops. In the future, the Xiao clan may have a chance to start over!”

"Remember, remember..."

As the words ended, Xiao Xuan's soul power slowly dissipated.

"Xiao Chen... Is there still an ancestor of my Xiao clan alive?" Xiao Ning's eyes showed surprise. He only hated that he had no backing. Ever since his teacher left, everyone could bully and force him. If his ancestor was still alive, he would have nothing to fear.

As for the second half of Xiao Xuan's words, he simply ignored it. Tushe Ancient Emperor Cave... that was related to the inheritance of Dou Emperor.

The imperial family can fight for it, so why can't he?

Even if he is not strong enough now, it does not mean that he will not be strong enough in the future. As long as he breaks into the Fighting Saint level, he can quickly improve his strength by devouring the Fighting Saint. He may be able to catch up with those strong men from the imperial clan in a short time!
At worst, we can sacrifice blood on a few countries and devour them all!
With his future strength as a Fighting Saint, it would definitely not be difficult for him to do this. Even in an extreme way, it might not be impossible to offer a blood sacrifice to the entire continent!
Ambition will expand!
Knowing that his ancestor was only one step away from becoming a Dou Emperor, how could Xiao Ning, as a descendant, not work hard? Moreover, his ancestor did not oppose him practicing this technique, which showed that he approved of it. Now that he has inherited everything from his ancestor, how could he not surpass him! !
He wants to become the Dou Di!

The Dou Emperor who stands above everyone else!
"Hehehe~" A ferocious smile appeared on Xiao Ning's face, with scarlet light flashing in his eyes.

"...Did you teach him this smile?" Yao Yan appeared above Xiao Ning with Tianzi Fire. Looking at Xiao Ning who was smiling strangely below, he couldn't help but ask Tianzi Fire. He always felt that Tianzi Fire was misleading his students, but he had to admit that the other party was indeed the evil Void Swallowing Flame Fire.

"He taught himself~" Tian Zihuo smiled awkwardly.

“Don’t laugh. There is still some time before the Heavenly Tomb closes. You should condense the Xiao clan emblem as soon as possible and absorb this ball of Dou Sheng Jade Marrow. The energy contained in it should be enough for you to reach the peak of the Ninth Transformation Dou Zun.”

Yao Yan's figure slowly emerged. His figure at this moment was naturally formed by a ray of soul power, but this ray of soul power was enough to kill Xiao Ning thousands of times. He raised his hand and threw a ball of Dou Sheng Jade Marrow to Xiao Ning. He still had a lot of this stuff. After all, he had killed many Dou Shengs in recent years.

"?!" Xiao Ning looked at the person who came and was shocked. The weird smile on his face suddenly froze and he could no longer smile.

"Do you know the agreement between me and your ancestors?" Yao Yan was not sure whether Xiao Xuan had told Xiao Ning anything, so he could only ask.

"I said...the ancestor said that you will help me break through to the Fighting Saint level, and then rescue another trapped ancestor of the Xiao clan, Xiao Chen!" Xiao Ning swallowed and solemnly took the Fighting Saint Jade Marrow. At the same time, he restrained his expression, respectfully bowed to Yao Yan, and said in a deep voice.

"This is the agreement between him and me, and I will abide by it. When your Dou Qi cultivation reaches the peak of the Ninth Transformation Dou Zun, I will give you a ninth-grade precious pill to help you take the last step... As for Xiao Chen's matter, when the Pure Lotus Demon Fire is born, I will save him and let him regain his freedom." Yao Yan said lightly.

"Thank you!" Xiao Ning bowed again.

"It's just a deal." Yao Yan said calmly. He looked at Xiao Ning, "I need some Doudi blood from the Xiao clan."

"Wait a moment!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Ning cut his wrist without any hesitation and forced out a fist-sized ball of Xiao clan's Dou Emperor's blood. As the ball of Dou Emperor's blood flowed away, the clan pattern on his forehead seemed a little illusory and seemed about to disappear. However, he didn't feel sorry at all.

Because as long as your strength is improved, you can have as much imperial blood and essence as you want in the future. The major imperial clans have plenty of them!
For this reason, what do the little gains and losses at the moment matter?

"Practice~" Yao Yan looked at Xiao Ning deeply, and then left the tomb with the blood essence of the Xiao clan's Dou Emperor.

Xiao Ning didn't dare to show any strange expression anymore, let alone speak out his true feelings. He sat cross-legged in the void and began to absorb the Jade Marrow of the Fighting Saint to restore the lost blood essence of the imperial clan. At the same time, he used it to compress his own fighting spirit and move towards the Nine-Transformation Fighting Lord.

……

The Fire Array.

Yao Yan sat cross-legged in the center, and there seemed to be ten flaming black holes around him, madly devouring the energy around him. In comparison, Gu Xun'er who was practicing below was much slower, absorbing less than one percent of what he absorbed.

"This kid is really a talent~" He slowly opened his eyes, looked at the dark red imperial blood floating in front of him, and sighed in his heart.

A chess piece that was casually placed back then has actually grown to this point today. This feeling is really amazing. Now he inexplicably understands Hunxuzi's feelings. It is indeed an interesting thing to play with people's hearts.

Yao Yan shook his head and did not continue to pay attention to Xiao Ning. He absorbed the blood essence of the Xiao clan Dou Emperor in front of him into his body, but did not integrate it into his old body. Instead, he poured it all onto the Chaos Fetus in his body, nourishing its growth and absorbing the fragments of rules in the blood essence of the Xiao clan Dou Emperor.

The so-called Dou Emperor's blood essence is actually a kind of rule transformed from the Douqi Continent. Every Dou Emperor is equivalent to the manifestation of a rule, representing the world law of the Douqi Continent!
Just like Xiao Yixian's poisonous body, it is the manifestation of the law of poison, but Xiao Yixian's body is too fragile to bear it.

Do it all.

Yao Yan slowly stood up, stretched his body, with a faint smile on his face, and chuckled softly, "The peak of the five-star fighting saint!"

He did not continue to practice. With his strength reaching this level, seclusion was no longer of much use, especially since the energy body of the third layer had been plundered by him. Continuing his seclusion would not be very effective unless he could sit cross-legged here for ten years.

In the remaining six months, Yao Yan plans to practice fighting skills. He has a premonition that after he goes out this time, the outside world may be in chaos! (End of this chapter)
