NOVEL FROG Yan Clan’s Shock
Central Plains
Inside the Yan Clan's Main Hall
Several powerful figures sat on chairs, staring intently at the Yan Clan prodigy, Huo Xuan.
The Yan Clan's Dou God bloodline was almost identical to that of the Lei Clan. The Yan Clan also boasted numerous strong individuals, but their most significant advantage was the several Heavenly Flames they possessed, which made their combat power far surpass that of the Ling, Shi, and Yao Clans.
The most powerful person in the Yan Clan was their clan leader, Yan Jin. Although he was only at the late stage of Eight-Star Dou Saint, his control over Heavenly Flames was unmatched. This allowed Yan Jin to simultaneously wield two Heavenly Flames, and the power of their fusion was comparable to the fourth-ranked Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame.
Sitting in the main seat, a stunning woman dressed in a red robe slowly opened her eyes and gazed at the junior before her. "Bone Chilling Flame... It's the Heavenly Flame that propelled Yao Chen of Yao Clan to fame. How did a small auction house manage to put up such a treasure?"
"Reporting to the Grand Elder, that is indeed the case. Moreover, I learned that people from the Hall of Souls also participated and obtained the eight-colored lightning Bodhisattva Pill."
"What did you say?"
Several powerful figures in the hall stood up abruptly. "he eight-colored lightning Bodhisattva Pill? That's something that gives a Nine Transformation Dou Venerate a twenty percent chance to break through to the Half-Saint realm..."
Fairy Huo Ling squinted her eyes slightly. "Interesting. Auctioning off a Heavenly Flame is already extraordinary, but they also auctioned off an eight-colored Bodhisattva Pill."
Fairy Huo Ling, the strongest person in the Yan Clan below the clan leader, was at the late stage of Seven-Star Dou Saint.
Fairy Huo Ling continued, "Did you manage to find out who's behind Heaven Ascending Pavilion?"
Huo Xuan shook his head and solemnly responded, "Heaven Ascending Pavilion is very secretive, located deep within the Magic Beast Mountain Range in the Northwest Continent. However, there are several Dou Venerate experts in the pavilion, and the pavilion master's strength is unfathomable. With just a single word, he shattered my pressure."
This statement left the strong individuals in the hall dumbfounded. The notion that an Eight-Star Dou Venerate's pressure could be shattered by a single word was hard to believe.
Fairy Huo Ling gently rubbed her forehead. Despite her peerless beauty, she had some doubts about Huo Xuan's words. If what he said was true, the power behind Heaven Ascending Pavilion might belong to one of the other Eight Great Clans.
But it couldn't be the Hun Clan. If the Hun Clan wanted to establish their power in other continents, they wouldn't establish an auction house that was high-profile and drawing much attention.
And Huo Xuan mentioned that the other side casually auctioned so many rare treasures, indicating a formidable background.
Who could it be?
Could it be the Gu Clan?
After pondering for a while, Fairy Huo Ling spoke, "Send someone to investigate this matter discreetly. Do not alarm the people of Heaven Ascending Pavilion. I need to meet the clan leader and inform him about this."
"Yes!"
"Huo Xuan, you have done well in acquiring the Heavenly Flame. Once I report back, you will be rewarded. Since you already possess a Heavenly Flame, the Bone Chilling Flame is of no use to you, so I will take it."
"Understood." Huo Xuan did not dare show any resentment and offered the Bone Chilling Flame with both hands. After all, Fairy Huo Ling was the most powerful person in the clan aside from the clan leader.
This matter was of great importance. The sudden appearance of a peak expert was unacceptable for any faction.
If the other party had no ambitions, it would be fine. But if they extended their influence to the Central Plains, it would surely disrupt the peace among the major clans.
…
Heaven Ascending Pavilion
Having become a Dou Emperor, Li Xiao continually absorbed the Dou Qi from the surrounding. The three different techniques he had started to cultivate were progressing rapidly, thanks to his newfound strength. Advancing by leapt and bound from Dou Spirit to Dou Emperor was an achievement few could boast.
Li Xiao slowly opened his eyes, exhaling deeply. The surrounding space trembled, merely from the release of his breath. This was a testament to the immense power of the three techniques he had mastered.
Hongmeng Body Refinement Technique: This technique enhanced his physical body. At its peak, even Dou God would struggle to put a scratch on his body.
God-Slaying Palm: An offensive technique capable of devastating everything with a single strike.
Kunpeng Creation Technique: A resurrection technique that could create a new body as long as the soul remained intact. Any body created through this technique would have strength at the Dou Venerate level.
If Li Xiao desired, he could infinitely produce Dou Venerate experts.
This demonstrated the significance of high-grade Heaven-class techniques. Only the most elite fighters possessed such abilities, making them exceedingly rare.
Li Xiao shrugged and stood up, smiling at the beautiful scenery of Heaven Ascending Pavilion. As he moved, nine-colored wings of light unfurled behind him.
"So this is Dou Qi Wings?" Li Xiao smiled. "No wonder those Dou Spirits would risk their lives to reach the Dou King level. The benefits of Dou Qi Wings are impressive."
In an instant, Li Xiao vanished from sight, reappearing above Heaven Ascending Pavilion.
As he appeared, the sky changed colors, and a nine-colored radiance spread across a hundred-mile radius. All the beasts bowed in respect, their roars of reverence echoing through the otherwise silent Magic Beast Mountain Range.
Bai Ling and the others knelt on one knee, speaking in unison, "Congratulations, Pavilion Master!"
They could clearly sense the aura emanating from Li Xiao, indicating that he had advanced to the One-Star Dou Emperor level.
"Master."
"Brother."
Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin awoke from their cultivation and hurried out of Heaven Ascending Pavilion. Seeing Li Xiao's transformation, they were astonished, especially by the majestic wings behind him.
Li Xiao shrugged again, feeling refreshed after releasing some of his chaotic Dou Qi. When he landed, the previously turbulent energy gradually dissipated.
Xiao Yi Xian had advanced to Dou Spirit, while Qing Lin had broken through to Dou Master, both showing remarkable progress.
"Master, what level have you reached? I can't see through it," Xiao Yi Xian asked, gently holding his arm.
"You'll find out in time," Li Xiao replied, playfully poking her nose. Without realizing it, he had already spent three years on the Dou Qi Continent.
Time flies, and years pass by so quickly!
Xiao Yi Xian pouted, "Master, you're teasing me again."
"Brother... Qing Lin feels you're very strong..." Qing Lin said shyly, her voice soft.
Li Xiao patted Qing Lin's head gently, "Qing Lin, I've told you many times. Don't be so timid. You need to become stronger to protect our home."
Qing Lin nodded, determination flickering in her eyes. "Yes, Brother, I will become strong."
Li Xiao nodded in satisfaction. His journey on the Dou Qi Continent had just begun, and with his newfound strength, the path ahead seemed brighter and more promising than ever.
