Chapter 314 Xun'er: It's a pity that Third Brother's surname is not Gu. Wait, it seems that he can't have the surname Gu either?
As the night gradually enveloped Yecheng, the noise caused by the shocking battle during the day finally faded away, but many people's hearts were still filled with excitement and excitement because of the battle. Battles of this level are rare even in Zhongzhou.

What aroused the most curiosity among all the people in Yecheng was the identities of the woman in green and the young man in white. The people in Danyu knew very well how powerful Binghe Valley was in Zhongzhou. However, even Binghe actually surrendered to the woman in green under countless gazes today, and was then killed by the strong man beside the young man in white!

In today's battle, almost all the top leaders of Glacier Valley were wiped out. This kind of situation has not happened in Zhongzhou for many years.

The Glacier Valley, one of the three great valleys, was heading towards destruction in this way, which made many people sigh in amazement.

A crescent moon hangs in the dark night sky, and the slightly cold moonlight pours down from the sky, covering the city that has been ravaged by the day with a layer of light silver gauze.

In a guest room deep inside the Ye family's home, Xiao Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed, his hands forming a cultivation seal. As he breathed in and out, a faint hot aura swirled around his body.

Although Xiao Yuan was not seriously injured in the battle during the day, the fighting spirit in his body was almost exhausted. In addition, the overbearing energy generated by the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire also caused some damage in his body. If it were not for his strong body, some of his meridians would have been torn apart by the overbearing energy.

Waves of energy from heaven and earth slowly penetrated into Xiao Yuan's body, and then after being refined, they turned into gurgling fighting spirit, flowing through his meridians, causing the dull pain in his meridians to gradually weaken.
This kind of quiet practice lasted for nearly two or three hours. Xiao Yuan's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, and his slightly pale face regained some redness. The exhausted fighting spirit in his body became much fuller after rest.

"My strength is still not enough. After all, I have exposed my teacher's existence today. In this way, I don't have much time left. Fortunately, the Soul Palace cannot be too presumptuous in the Dan Domain. To be on the safe side, I still have to make arrangements in advance."

Xiao Yuan looked at the ancient black ring on his finger and said with worry on his face.

He has always been accustomed to thinking about problems from the worst perspective. In the battle during the day, Xiao Yan, with the help of Yao Lao's power, possessed the ability to fight against Dou Zun. He also used the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, which basically exposed the fact that Yao Lao was right next to them. Perhaps others could not guess the specific situation, but it was different for the Soul Palace.

"Teacher, after we solve the problem of Little Medical Fairy, let's set off for Shengdan City."

Xiao Yuan said softly, stroking the ancient black ring.

"Well, that's fine. Although the Ye family is also in the Dan Domain, if they really encounter some strong people coming to block the space, even the three giants of the Dan Tower may find it difficult to detect. Although Venerable Tianhuo is very powerful, the strong people in the Soul Palace are not just ordinary elders at the level of Venerable Bai Tianqinghai. Being able to be called one palace and one tower with the Dan Tower, the strength of the Soul Palace is unfathomable. It won't hurt to be careful."

Yao Lao's figure floated out from it and said with a smile.

He was also quite satisfied with Xiao Yuan's progress. Although the speed of his Dou Qi cultivation was a bit slow, his combat effectiveness had a significant leap. When ordinary people were at the four-star Dou Zong level, they did not have the strength to kill even a Dou Zun.

"Oh, teacher, if you want to be resurrected, I can prepare for your resurrection at any time. But I am a little unwilling. Senior Tianhuo used his own body to resurrect. As for the bone-growing and blood-melting pills and the blood of the magic beasts, they were from the seventh-grade peak and the eighth-grade magic beasts, which is already a good configuration.

But your body from that time has long since disappeared. If I were to find a Dou Zun strongman's body, I would not think it would be worthy of you, so I hope you can be patient for a while longer. I still hope to refine the most perfect body for you."

Xiao Yuan frowned, looked a little apologetic, and spoke in a very serious tone.

"Haha, it doesn't really matter. As long as he can be resurrected, the materials are almost enough. But I am very pleased that you have such a heart. Anyway, we have waited for so many years, so it doesn't matter if we wait a little longer."

Yao Lao shook his head, but still patted Xiao Yuan on the shoulder with a gentle look on his face.

He naturally understood Xiao Yuan's intentions. As a disciple, he naturally hoped to refine the best body possible for his teacher. As his strength increased, his vision naturally broadened a lot, and he was not willing to make do with anything casually, so he said that he hoped he would wait for some more time.

"By the way, teacher, do you have any suggestions on how to advance to the eighth-grade alchemist? I think I need some guidance."

Seeing that Yao Lao did not object to his idea, Xiao Yuan felt more at ease and immediately asked about what he was most concerned about at the moment.

"An eighth-grade alchemist?" Upon hearing this, Yao Lao seemed to be lost in thought. After stroking his beard and pondering for a moment, he slowly said, "I saw you perform the Soul Formation Mirror during the day, and I knew that your soul power has reached the peak of the mortal realm."

"The peak of the mortal realm?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan looked at Yao Lao curiously.

"Well, the soul realm is roughly divided into four levels: the mortal realm, the spiritual realm, the heavenly realm, and the emperor realm. Most people, even alchemists below the eighth rank, remain in the mortal realm, but the soul power varies. You are now at the peak of the mortal realm.

Some seventh-grade alchemists, if by chance, might be able to vaguely touch the spiritual realm, and if their soul power reaches this level, it would have an effect, which is to endow the medicine with spirit, that is, to give the medicine spirituality.

You should know that most eighth-grade elixirs have extraordinary spirituality, and it is precisely because of this spirituality that they can reach the eighth grade. No matter how excellent the alchemy skills of an ordinary alchemist are, if he cannot give the elixir spirituality, then the elixir will never reach the eighth grade.

Heavenly Realm, you should also be aware that if it is a ninth-grade elixir, the intelligence will be no different from that of ordinary humans. This is almost equivalent to a creation, creating a living being. This living being not only needs to be endowed with spirituality, but also has the power of heaven and earth. However, in order to achieve this, one needs to reach the Heavenly Realm, this level, I believe that there should be very few people on the continent who can achieve it now!

As for the Emperor Realm, it only exists in legends, and even I have only heard of it. But the highest grade of elixir is the legendary Emperor Grade, and the Emperor Grade elixir is related to the legendary Dou Emperor, but that is too long ago for you!
You and Xiao Yan once contaminated my soul power with some spiritual energy of the spiritual realm. Therefore, your soul at the peak of the mortal realm is somewhat different from the soul of an ordinary person at the peak of the mortal realm. Your soul power will be more spiritual!
Therefore, ordinary people may find it difficult to break through the spiritual realm, or if they break through by chance, there will be no experience passed down.

But you are different. You will be able to enter the spiritual realm more smoothly in your future cultivation."

After Yao Lao finished speaking, he pointed a finger at Xiao Yuan's brow.

"Back then, I also collected a method that can cultivate soul power, and now it is just right to pass it on to you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan quickly closed his eyes and concentrated, accepting the method taught by Yao Lao.

After a while, Xiao Yuan opened his eyes and murmured: "Soul Containing Technique"

"Nowadays, many techniques that can actively cultivate the soul have been lost. Even I have only obtained the Soul-Nourishing Technique. Danta may also have this thing, but it may be difficult to obtain it.

I didn't give you this technique in the past because your soul power hadn't reached the peak of the mortal realm. If you rashly practiced this soul technique before, it would lead to an unstable foundation. But now you have reached a bottleneck, and coupled with the spirituality that your soul power already has, I think you will be able to get started quickly."

Yao Lao said with a smile.

"Yes, teacher, I will work hard to practice."

Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded when he heard this.

"Don't push yourself too hard. I still have some respect in Danta. You don't need to worry too much about safety."

Yao Lao said with a smile.

"It's okay. I'm pretty good at self-regulation."

Xiao Yuan thought of how he had hugged four pairs of long, white legs during the day and indulged himself in them, and he couldn't help but smile, a smile that all men understand.

"Haha, you kid!"

Yao Lao naturally knew that this disciple must have done a lot of bad things after blocking his perception during the day, but since it was a consensual relationship between a man and a woman, he would not say much. For Xiao Yuan, it was the best way for him to rest and relieve stress.

But the next moment, Xiao Yuan and Yao Lao both looked towards the door.

Boom boom boom!
"Brother, are you practicing?"

Xiao Yan’s voice rang out.

"No, come in."

Xiao Yuan and Yao Lao looked at each other, nodded, and then spoke softly.

The door was gently pushed open, and Xiao Yan pulled Xun'er into the room.

"teacher?"

Seeing Yao Lao appear so clearly in front of him and Xun'er, Xiao Yan was slightly stunned.

"Haha, it's okay. This girl must have already figured out my identity."

Yao Lao said with a smile.

"Xun'er has met Mr. Yao! All these years, I have been able to survive thanks to Senior Yao."

Upon hearing this, Xun'er bowed to Yao Lao and spoke in a gentle voice.

"Hehe, I didn't do anything. All these years are thanks to these two little guys. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to see you now. Don't worry, after I recover my body, I will take Xiao Yan to your ancient clan to propose marriage. Although I am only a soul now, after I recover my body, I am confident that with my status as a ninth-grade alchemist, I am still qualified to visit your ancient clan."

Yao Lao smiled and waved his hand, looking at his disciple's wife with a loving look, which made Xun'er blush.

"Mr. Yao was the best alchemist in the continent back then. Xun'er naturally believes in your alchemy skills. I wonder what materials Mr. Yao needs to restore his body? Xun'er may be able to help."

Xun'er asked very actively with an eager look in her eyes.

"Tsk, then let's get a complete skeleton of a Dou Sheng and the essence and blood of a ninth-level magic beast."

Xiao Yuan was really rude and he dared to make requests.

"Ah?" Xun'er's face turned bitter when she heard that. She looked at Xiao Yuan and said, "Third brother, I can't dig up the grave of our ancient clan elder, can I?" "Brother, you are too..."

Xiao Yan's eyes trembled as well, and he looked at Xiao Yuan helplessly.

Third brother, this is too bold!

"Haha, I'm just kidding. How can I really let you do that? But if possible, the higher the level of this body and blood essence, the better. This will greatly benefit the teacher's strength and potential after he recovers his physical body."

Xiao Yuan smiled and shook his head at Xun'er, then looked at Xiao Yan and said seriously.

"Well, I understand this. Although the body of an ordinary Dou Zun meets the requirements, it is still not as strong as the teacher's when he was alive. It can only be said to be unsatisfactory. I also hope to be able to refine the best body for the teacher by then."

It can only be said that they are worthy of being brothers. Xiao Yan and Xiao Yuan obviously have the same idea.

"Then I will think of a solution after I return. If I have any news, I will send someone to inform you."

Xun'er looked at the serious expressions of Xiao Yan and her third brother, and her heart became more serious as she spoke softly.

"Well, then I'll wait for your good news!"

Xiao Yuan nodded and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Third Brother. Mr. Yao is the teacher of you and Brother Xiao Yan, so I will naturally help you. Besides, Mr. Yao's alchemy skills are so good that even the ancient clan should treat him with courtesy."

Xun'er smiled softly and said.

"What's more, the sooner the teacher recovers his physical body, the sooner he can go to your ancient clan to propose marriage!"

Xiao Yuan added with a smile.

"Third brother."

Xun'er blushed again when she heard that, and couldn't help but put her head on Xiao Yan's shoulder. If the young talents of the ancient clan saw her like that shy little girl, they would probably be dumbfounded, and then they would look for Xiao Yan out of envy and jealousy.

Xiao Yuan raised an eyebrow at Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan nodded slightly.

Yao Lao also nodded with a smile.

"By the way, why are you here so late? Do you have something to say?"

After amusing his sister, Xiao Yuan finally got to the point.

"Oh, I'm fine, it's mainly because Xun'er has something to say."

Xiao Yan's expression became more serious after hearing this, and he said with a smile.

Xun'er also calmed herself down and a serious look appeared on her face.

With a flip of her jade hand, a golden scroll appeared in Xun'er's hand, and then she handed it to Xiao Yuan.

"This is?"

Looking at the golden scroll, Xiao Yuan looked at Xun'er in a daze.

"This is a set of high-level earth-level fighting skills. When I said goodbye to Brother Xiao Yan, I gave it to him. Zhongzhou is full of powerful people. One more skill means more safety.

Although she could get whatever she wanted in the clan over the years, the only thing she lacked was the freedom she had in the Xiao family. Only with her third brother could Xun'er be a carefree sister. Only when she was with brother Xiao Yan did Xun'er feel at ease.

To be honest, sometimes I envy Brother Xiao Yan. Not only does he have the third brother, but he also has the second brother Xiao Li and the eldest brother Xiao Ding. If possible, Xun'er actually hopes that she is really the third brother's sister rather than a lady of the ancient clan.

Therefore, my sister hopes that my third brother will accept this fighting skill."

Xun Er said seriously.

"I'll accept your fighting skills, but you can't really be my blood-related sister, otherwise Xiaoyan will cry to death."

Xiao Yuan didn't expect Xun'er to say such a thing, but he soon realized something was wrong. After taking over the fighting skills, he also teased with a smile.

Hearing this, Xun'er reacted and looked at Xiao Yan with a red face.

"But I've already said it before, no matter from the relationship between you and Xiao Yan, or because we grew up together, you are still my sister. You will have to go to the Ancient Clan in the future. There are some things that Xiao Yan can't help you with, but I, your brother, can. I practice for this reason."

Xiao Yuan put the scroll back into his ring, looked at his younger brothers and sisters in front of him, and said in a loud voice.

"elder brother"

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's eyes turned slightly red. Over the years, with Xiao Yuan around, he had indeed shielded him from many ups and downs. Just like when his fighting spirit disappeared and his cultivation level regressed, Xiao Yuan gave up the resources for cultivation and went to manage the family business.

Xun'er on the side showed a bright smile. Fortunately, the third brother is still the same third brother. He hasn't changed at all over the years.

If I really had a brother as talented as my third brother, the pressure in the clan wouldn't all be focused on me, right?

Uh, that’s not right. If third brother’s surname is Gu, wouldn’t that be the same name as daddy’s?

Thinking of this, Xun'er couldn't help but shook her head and threw this unrealistic idea out of her mind.

Now this is good enough!

"Then Brother Xiao Yan and I will leave first? I can't stay in Zhongzhou for a few days this time, and I want Brother Xiao Yan to accompany me more."

After solving a big problem in her heart, Xun'er looked relaxed and asked with a smile.

"Go ahead, Xiao Yan, don't bully Xun'er, or Third Brother will be merciless."

Xiao Yuan waved his hand, then said to Xiao Yan with a smile.

"Brother, don't worry."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded solemnly.

In his heart, what Xiao Yuan said carried the same weight as what his father Xiao Zhan and his teacher Yao Lao said.

"You guys go ahead. I need to concentrate on my training. Don't disturb me."

Xiao Yuan waved his hand and sent the two out the door.

"Tsk, if the Gu Clan knew this girl's thoughts, I wonder if they would regret sending her to your Xiao family?"

Yao Lao sighed on the side.

"When Xun'er was taken away, I knew she would not be happy in the clan. Judging from her performance today, her situation is indeed not very good. However, it is nothing more than a trouble caused by some old people in the big family who are conservative and stubborn. I think it will be difficult to deal with. But my sister has asked for it, so as a brother, I naturally cannot let her down.

Teacher, is there any other way to speed up the cultivation of Dou Qi? I have been immersed in alchemy for a while, which has consumed a lot of time and my Dou Qi cultivation has fallen behind. "

There wasn't much of a smile on Xiao Yuan's face. Instead, he asked with a slightly frown.

"There are some ways, but they will be a bit painful."

Yao Lao pondered for a moment, then nodded with a serious face under Xiao Yuan's expectant gaze.

"Please ask the teacher to teach me!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yuan said without hesitation.
