Chapter 606: Heavenly Rank Advanced Grade Soul Cultivation Technique!

After occupying the Huang Quan Shan Mai, this Huangquan Stele naturally became a heritage site of the Snake Emperor Empire, where one could attempt the Trial to obtain the legacy.

This stele does not grant the Yellow Spring Three Styles Dou Technique legacy to everyone; just as now, each must earn it individually.

Xiao Yan furrowed his brows—he sensed Zi Yan's Spiritual Soul fluctuating wildly.

"This girl is rushing too much," Xiao Yan sighed helplessly. Though she had swallowed a Nine-Treasure Pill recently, replenishing her Life Force and advancing her Cultivation Realm to Dou Sheng Mid-Stage, Zi Yan had never undergone meditation beneath the Bodhi Ancient Tree—her Soul Force had not improved at all.

If she were to cultivate the Yellow Spring Finger and Huangquan Palm, she'd face no issues—but Huangquan Heavenly Rage demands the utmost Soul Power, and the Ancient Dragon Clan's Bloodline offers zero enhancement to Soul Force, and Zi Yan had never cultivated Spiritual Soul.

Now, Zi Yan was forcibly using Dou Qi and Bloodline Power to reinforce her Soul Force, attempting to brute-force through the Huangquan Heavenly Rage Trial.

Suddenly, a warm large hand pressed against Zi Yan's back, and a voice entered her mind: "Hold your spirit steady—I'll use my Strange Fire to guard your Soul."

With a hum, Three Thousand Yan Flame slithered from Xiao Yan's arm into Zi Yan's body, then whooshed—its starlike flames enveloped Zi Yan's jade-like form.

When Xiao Yan refined Three Thousand Yan Flame, Zi Yan had been in the Star Domain—and at that time, Three Thousand Yan Flame bore a Dragon Seal, one stabilized only by Zi Yan's Dragon Emperor Bloodline.

Thus, Zi Yan shared a peculiar bond with Three Thousand Yan Flame and could control it.

With Xiao Yan's power aiding her, Zi Yan instantly stabilized her spirit, her Soul fluctuations growing calm.

"Phew, why's this girl in such a hurry? After the Three Great Dragon Kings secure Pure Lotus Demon Fire, I'll help her anyway," Xiao Yan slowly retracted his hand.

At that moment, Qing Lin walked over, tiptoeing like a maid reporting to Xiao Yan's ear, pressing her soft body against his arm as she whispered: "Young Master Yan, Zi Yan wants to help you seize the Pure Lotus Demon Fire."

Xiao Yan knew perfectly well Zi Yan's intent—he pinched Qing Lin's delicate cheek, her infantile, smooth, tender skin making him reluctant to let go. He laughed: "Alright, Young Master knows. Guard me—I plan to cultivate here and refine some things."

"Mm-hmm."

Xiao Yan gazed into the Jiu You Huang Quan—he sensed a powerful aura slowly awakening beneath the deep pool; Cai Lin would emerge soon.

After all, Cai Lin had entered Jiu You Huang Quan nearly two years ago, seeking to refine the Nine-Colored Primordial Stone to aid Xiao Yan in seizing the Pure Lotus Demon Fire.

Xiao Yan's gaze sharpened slightly—this journey for the Pure Lotus Demon Fire mobilized all his strength; he was determined to succeed.

Calming his spirit, Xiao Yan sat atop a massive rock. With a hum, the Asura Deep Abyss appeared before him—a half-zhang-wide orb of light floated gently, radiating pure, gentle radiance that bathed the Jiu You Huang Quan, making its surface shimmer like rippling gold.

Xiao Yan stared at the Spiritual Soul orb, exhaled slowly, then reached out and touched it. As contact was made, he felt the vast, boundless Soul Origin force within—the sensation warmed his third eye's Spiritual Soul.

He withdrew the complete Emperor Soul Scripture, slowly opened it—and a torrent of immense Soul Information surged into his mind.

"Ah!"

Even with his Soul Force at Heavenly Realm Late-Stage, this massive Soul Information felt like his Soul was being torn apart!

"Clan Mark—appear!"

Xiao Yan formed a hand seal. With a hum, the Divine-Class Clan Mark emerged; his Soul Force surged, climbing relentlessly until it reached Heaven Realm Great Perfection and stabilized.

With the aid of the Soul Sovereign's Dou Di Bloodline, the pain eased.

Generally, cultivating advanced Cultivation Methods is extremely difficult—sometimes even with the method in hand, you still can't master it. But the Burning Scripture was uniquely special, capable of constant evolution; thus, Xiao Yan's path was simply devouring Strange Fires to evolve the Burning Scripture—he never needed deliberate cultivation, only consumption.

About three days later, Xiao Yan fully digested the Emperor Soul Scripture and exhaled: "Cultivating this Emperor Soul Scripture is truly difficult."

The complete Emperor Soul Scripture is a Heavenly Rank Advanced Grade Soul Cultivation Technique—its entire system is impossibly complex, its energy pathways crisscrossing in chaos.

Xiao Yan felt no frustration—his mind had long prepared for this. He was now a Dou Sheng, no longer the weakling of his youth; at this level, his comprehension surpassed humanity's limits, not to mention he had refined the Bodhi Heart—his understanding of Cultivation Methods ranked among the top five in the world, if not the very best.

The more complex the Emperor Soul Scripture, the brighter Xiao Yan's eyes grew—it proved its true power. With stronger Soul Cultivation Technique support, his Soul Dou Techniques would grow stronger.

He formed a hand seal and began slowly circulating the Emperor Soul Scripture. With a hum, his Soul Power transformed into a Three-Faced Asura Statue that wrapped around his body. The Three-Faced Asura Statue suddenly inhaled—the floating Soul Orb became a torrent of Soul energy rushing into him.

As Xiao Yan circulated the Emperor Soul Scripture, faint threads of black energy subtly rose from the absorbed Soul Origin torrent—these black energies were instantly purged, dissolving into nothingness.

Facing these deeply hidden negative emotions, Xiao Yan merely smiled calmly—they were minor issues, nothing compared to the Dou Di negative emotions of the Bodhi Ancient Tree.

As Xiao Yan grew more proficient with the Emperor Soul Scripture, the Three-Faced Asura Statue's suction grew stronger—until finally, with a whistling sound, the Soul Orb trembled slightly and was entirely sucked into him.

As the entire Soul Orb was absorbed, a crystal-like, strange Crystal Layer began forming on the surface of Xiao Yan's Asura Soul.

After absorbing all Soul Origin, as the Emperor Soul Scripture refined it, invisible waves radiated outward from Xiao Yan, causing even the Jiu You Huang Quan to tremble.

All life within the Huang Quan Shan Mai's forests felt a pressure originating from the depths of their Souls—in this pressure, even the fiercest beasts in the mountains cowered on the ground, daring not to growl.

Sssss! The Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake summoned by Qing Lin to guard the Jiu You Huang Quan raised its head—its eighteen serpent eyes glowed with grave intensity.

Now that the Nine-Headed Heavenly Snake had consumed part of the Huangquan Demon Saint's essence blood, it had restored part of its Heavenly Snake Bloodline and advanced to One-Star Dou Sheng Late-Stage, its combat power rivaling Two-Star Dou Sheng.

Yet before Xiao Yan, it felt only wariness.

Xiao Yan's cultivation had stirred considerable commotion—the waves seemed invisible but carried an irresistible pressure. Soon after spreading, many powerful figures within the Nine Underworld Serpent Clan sensed it.

"How can this guy's Soul Force be so terrifying?" Yao Ming's eyes were heavy with gravity—the Nine Underworld Serpent Clan's relationship with the Snake Emperor Empire was delicate.

Though Yao Ming had been rescued, most of his territory and heritage had been seized—there was both grace and grievance.

Yet as Xiao Yan's Soul fluctuations receded and solidified, an exceptionally unique Soul Field formed around the entire Jiu You Huang Quan—this peculiar Soul Pressure possessed the power to refine the Soul!

When Qing Lin first noticed her Soul Force slightly increasing, Hua She Er and Yue Mei also came over. Though the atmosphere here oppressed the Soul, they sensed their Souls being refined—Soul Force could slowly improve!

Having tasted the benefit, more and more Snake Emperor Empire cultivators rushed over—eventually even Yao Ming brought his Nine Underworld Serpent Clan's strongest to bask in the aura, refining their Soul Force, hoping to gain the chance to cultivate Huangquan Heavenly Rage!

But the greatest beneficiary was none other than Zi Yan, sitting not far from Xiao Yan, currently passing the Trial.

Gradually, the once-holy Jiu You Huang Quan became crowded with people—stronger cultivators sat closer to Xiao Yan. For a time, Xiao Yan resembled Confucius himself, countless figures seated cross-legged before him as if listening to a sermon, utterly bizarre.

But this bizarre scene lasted only two months—on the sixtieth day, Xiao Yan, who had been meditating with closed eyes, opened his eyes—and a terrifying, overwhelming Soul Force exploded with a boom!

Time is short—add 2675 characters!
