Chapter 310 Return to Tianhuang CityThe Dark Snake Vein, beneath the deep ravine.
Xiao Yun and his group stood beside the deep yellow lake. Medusa and several other women were staring at the golden liquid in his hand in a trance.
"Xiao Yun, is this the essence and blood of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint? It is so domineering!" Little Medical Fairy said softly, her words full of surprise.
The golden liquid in Xiao Yun's hand was exactly the blood of the demon saint that he had obtained from the Yellow Springs Stele earlier!
The blood was suspended in the palm of his hand. Even though the Yellow Spring Demon Saint had fallen for many years, it was still full of vitality, and strange waves were constantly spreading outward.
"Hmm..." Xiao Yun nodded slightly, snapped his fingers, and the golden blood ball was immediately split into three golden rays, flying towards the three girls of Xiao Yixian, and finally hovering in front of them.
"As a half-step Doudi, Huangquan Demon Saint's blood essence contains unimaginable power.
Xian'er, Medusa, with your current level of cultivation, after absorbing the energy in this drop of essence and blood, you will definitely break through to the semi-saint realm.
And Qinglin, your cultivation is still at the level of Eight-Star Dou Zun, and you are still unable to absorb the essence and blood of the Demon Saint.
You can try to absorb it only after you break through to the first level of Dou Zun here."
"Yes!" The three women all nodded vigorously, then slowly stretched out their arms and firmly grasped the blood of the demon saint floating in front of them.
The value of a half-emperor's blood essence can be imagined. Even just a drop can play a significant role for a Dou Sheng strongman!
If anyone discovered that Xiao Yun still had so much Demon Saint's blood in his hands, he would probably immediately become the public enemy of all the independent cultivators on the continent, and even some Dou Sheng powerful people would try to snatch it away.
The amount of Demon Saint's blood obtained from the Yellow Springs Stele this time was only six drops. After giving one drop to each of the three women, Xiao Yun only had three drops of blood left in his hand, the number reduced by half!
He also had a use for these three drops of the demon saint's blood in mind, which was to provide him with enormous energy to break through to the realm of a true saint.
"Alright, Medusa, Qinglin, you guys practice here! I will set up a space barrier above this place, and have Yao Ming send people to guard it..."
"Well, then I'll go in!" Medusa walked forward and gave Xiao Yun a brief hug, then turned around and came to the Nine Netherworld. With a flash of light, she transformed into the huge Eight-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python. The snake twisted its body and rushed directly into the Nine Netherworld, splashing a large amount of water.
"Gululu!"
As Medusa entered the Nine Netherworld, the water in the lake immediately began to churn as if it was boiling. Xiao Yun could feel that it seemed as if the entire cold and gloomy energy of the Nine Netherworld was alarmed and was madly gathering in one direction.
"Brother, then I will start practicing too." Seeing this, Qinglin found a stone block, sat down cross-legged and began to practice.
After Medusa and Qing Lin were both immersed in their cultivation, Xiao Yun carefully released a stream of red-gold fighting spirit, which turned into an invisible barrier in mid-air, isolating the aura of this place.
"Xiao Yun, if we don't practice here, will we absorb the blood essence of the Demon Saint?" Seeing that he had no intention of practicing, the Little Medical Fairy asked curiously.
"The energy here is almost entirely cold and yin. For the two of us, when we absorb the blood of the demon saint, some of the energy will definitely be lost..."
Xiao Yun shook his head, held Xiao Yixian's hand, and said with a smile: "Xian'er, do you still remember the Falling God Gorge? I think it is most suitable for you to absorb the blood of the Demon Saint there. Maybe by then you will not only be a low-level half-saint!
As for my breakthrough to Dou Sheng, I need to find a place with abundant fire energy. I can ask Huoyun Patriarch or Tang Zhen then. There are many volcanoes in the western region of Zhongzhou, so they should know something about it. "
"Yes, I remember." The Little Medical Fairy nodded slightly. After Xiao Yun said that, she also remembered that the Luoshen Gorge was full of poisonous gas. It was a dangerous place for ordinary people, but for her poisonous body, it was indeed a holy place for cultivation!
"Okay, let's go. I hope that after our retreat is over, we can all break through to the Saint realm."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yun flashed and flew upwards with Xiao Yixiang. After they came out of the Nether Snake Vein, they found Yao Ming who was handling clan affairs.
"Brother Xiao Yun, you are here, but what's the matter?" Yao Ming stood up from his seat and asked with a smile.
"It's nothing, the two of us are going back to Zhongzhou, while Medusa and Qinglin are practicing in the underworld..." Xiao Yun said with a faint smile.
Yao Ming understood immediately after hearing this, and patted his chest to assure, "Do you need me to send someone to guard them? Brother Xiao Yun, don't worry, I will dispatch a few teams of Nether Snake Guards to guard them day and night, and will definitely protect them!"
"Thank you very much, Chief Yao Ming. However, I have already set up a space barrier under the deep ravine. I would like to trouble the Dark Snake Guards to stay above and prevent others from going down."
"Brother Xiao Yun, don't worry about this. Don't even a mosquito, let alone a human, think of sneaking down!"
Yao Ming breathed a sigh of relief. If they were just stationed up there, it would be fine. After all, the cold and gloomy power there was not that terrifying. They only needed to send two teams of Nether Snake Guards and rotate them day and night.
The cold and gloomy power beneath the deep ravine is even more terrifying. Ordinary members of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan cannot stay there for long, so a large number of Netherworld Snake Guards are needed to rotate.
The Nine Netherworld Python Clan, which has just ended its rebellion, cannot spare so many manpower in a short period of time.
"In that case, I won't disturb the Yaoming tribe leader from taking care of his internal affairs. Xian'er, let's go!" Xiao Yun clasped his fists and thanked him, then took the little medical fairy's hand and walked out.
……
When leaving the Nine Netherworld Python Clan and heading for Zhongzhou, Xiao Yun and the others did not open up a space wormhole, but chose to travel by simple flight.
But even if they were flying, with their cultivation strength, their speed was astonishingly fast. It was countless times faster than the first time they came to the Beast Territory. In just half a day, they crossed a hundred thousand mountains and arrived in the Western Region of Zhongzhou.
Along the way, when Xiao Yun and his companions passed by some human cities, they keenly discovered that some cities had become chaotic.
Several major family forces in the city have changed their previous peaceful coexistence and are now fighting and competing for territory.
The city gate caught fire and affected the pond fish.
The struggles among the major family forces have threatened the lives of many low-level cultivators. Even if they go out to have fun, they may be caught in the vortex of fighting, causing panic.
Although this phenomenon did not occur in all cities, Xiao Yun still vaguely guessed that all this was probably related to the Soul Palace.
It might be because he had previously attacked the Northwest Soul Hall branch, causing the Soul Hall to lose a portion of its soul origin, so he had no choice but to stir up chaos in order to take the opportunity to harvest souls.
Xiao Yun also took action to suppress several incidents of chaos, trying to find the mastermind behind the scenes, but he returned in vain.
The signs of chaos only completely disappeared when they reached the sphere of influence of the Burning Flame Valley.
……
Tianhuang City, which belongs to Fenyan Valley, has a space wormhole that leads directly to Danyu, making it extremely majestic, with a large number of people coming in and out every day. Xiao Yun and Xiao Yixian were suspended in the sky, looking at the majestic city below, with a lot of emotion in their hearts, "Xian'er, the last time we came here was two years ago, right? Time flies so fast..."
"That's right. At that time, we were just at the level of Dou Zun. Two years have passed, and you have become a saint." The Little Medical Fairy nodded her head slightly. There was no jealousy in her words, but joy instead.
For her, the improvement of Xiao Yun’s cultivation strength made her much happier than herself.
"Haha, when you come back from Luoshen Gorge, you will also become a saint."
Xiao Yun smiled, stretched out his hands and held the delicate body of the Little Medical Fairy in his arms, and the latter also obediently leaned her head on his chest.
After the two of them cuddled together for a long time, the Little Medical Immortal reluctantly said, "Okay, Xiaoyun, send me to the space wormhole..."
"Okay." Xiao Yun nodded, and the soul power at his brow surged out, detecting the location of the space wormhole. At the same time, he also discovered some "interesting" things.
"Xian'er, let's go down. There must be a small problem over at Burning Flame Valley."
As soon as the words fell, the space around the two of them twisted slowly, and then their figures disappeared into the sky.
……
The space wormhole, as a strategic resource, is extremely important. Therefore, the strong men of Fenyan Valley built it in the center of Tianhuang City, and asked the forces in the city to send strong men to guard it all year round.
But today there are a lot of people in the space wormhole, densely packed around in circles. In the center, there are two teams facing each other.
These two teams are the most powerful family forces in Tianhuang City, and Fenyan Valley also handed over the management rights of the space wormhole to them.
According to the rules of Fenyan Valley, the two major families take turns in charge for one year. Originally, this year it was the turn of the Liu family to take charge, but the Cheng family forcibly occupied this place for unknown reasons.
"Cheng Yao, this year's space wormhole should be controlled by my Liu family! Why did you send your Cheng family to forcibly occupy this place!"
Among the Liu family's men, the leader is a young man with a resolute face. Although he is young, the strong aura emanating from his body cannot be underestimated.
"Haha, Liu Qing, come to think of it, your father and I have been friends for many years, so I can be considered your elder! Is this how you talk to your elders?"
Opposite the man called Liu Qing, there was also a large group of people, led by a middle-aged man, and the previous words came from his mouth.
"Hmph, you think..." Upon hearing this, Liu Qing sneered and was about to say something when an old voice suddenly resounded in the square.
"That's enough. The Cheng family is here. This is the latest order from Burning Flame Valley!"
The voice attracted countless people to look up, and they saw an old man in a red robe, standing in the air, suspended above everyone's heads.
"A Dou Zong expert! It's Elder Chihuo from the Burning Flame Valley!"
When the old man's face appeared, exclamations of surprise suddenly rang out in the square. Elder Chihuo was sent by Fenyan Valley to manage Tianhuang City, so his face was naturally recorded by all the major family forces.
The young man from the Liu family, Liu Qing, looked unhappy when he heard this. He said respectfully, "It turns out to be Elder Chihuo. I wonder when this latest order was issued? How come..."
Before he could finish, Elder Chihuo waved his hand to interrupt him and said in a deep voice: "You are the new head of the Liu family, right? This elder tells you that this is not because I favor the Cheng family!
This order was issued by the Valley Master! We need to invite some high-level alchemists to the Burning Flame Valley to help refine a pill! Whoever can find a high-level alchemist will be able to gain the management rights of the space wormhole and maintain it for three years!"
Chihuo said this and suddenly paused, then pointed in the direction of the Cheng family. There, an old man in a purple robe stood proudly with his hands behind his back.
"The Cheng family has found a sixth-grade alchemist certified by Danta. If you can find him, the management rights of this space wormhole will still belong to your Liu family!"
Hearing this, the faces of the people from the Liu family changed. Although they were a big family in Tianhuang City, they were nothing in Zhongzhou.
At that moment, where could one find a sixth-grade or even higher-level alchemist?
Liu Qing's face was extremely ugly, and he said: "Elder Chihuo, can you give our Liu family some time? It only takes two months, and I, Liu Qing, will definitely invite a sixth-grade alchemist!"
A figure flashed through his mind. It was a good friend he made when he was in Canaan College. He was extremely talented and was only in his early twenties, but he had already become a sixth-rank alchemy master!
"Two months? That's too long. This matter is quite urgent. If you can't find it today, the management rights of this space wormhole will have to be given to the Cheng family!" Elder Chihuo shook his head and said indifferently.
“This…” Liu Qing’s expression turned ugly again, and he clenched his fists. The people from the Liu family behind him were all like this. Where could they find a sixth-grade alchemist in one day?
Just when the Liu family could not think of a solution and were ready to swallow their anger, another voice was heard above the square.
"Hehe, Elder Chihuo, what happened in Burning Flame Valley? Why do you need an alchemist so urgently?"
The sound was not loud, but it could be clearly heard by everyone. However, when Elder Chihuo heard the sound, his face changed drastically, and he almost fell to the ground in excitement.
The change in Elder Chihuo's situation made everyone present curious. They could tell that the owner of the voice was quite young. Could a young man make the elders of Fenyan Valley so excited?
Then, under the gaze of everyone, the void in the square slowly twisted, and two figures walked out of it.
The people who came were a man and a woman. The man looked like a handsome gentleman, and the woman was so beautiful that she could shame the moon and the flowers. They seemed like a match made in heaven. Anyone who saw them would secretly praise them for being a perfect match.
"A Dou Zun expert?!" Not many people in the square could recognize Xiao Yun and the other two, but they could vaguely guess their cultivation level from the way they appeared.
"Which major power's saint son or saint daughter are they from? They are so young, probably only in their early twenties, and they are already Dou Zun strongmen?"
The whispers reached Xiao Yun's ears. His face remained calm. He looked at the horrified old man and chuckled, "Elder Chihuo, you don't recognize me?"
“I dare not!” Finally, Elder Chihuo came back to his senses, bowed to Xiao Yun with great respect, and said: “Chihuo, I meet Master Xiao Yun! Immortal Venerable!”
The old voice sounded in the square, shocking everyone, as if they were struck by lightning, and their minds went blank.
Xiao Yun? Master Xiao Yun? Is that the Master Xiao Yun we know? !
Just one update today, sorry, dear readers.
Lao Xu and good friends get together
