Chapter 160: Searching for Xiao Xun'er

Leaving that space that does not exist in reality, at Bai Yuan's request, Gu Yue Na sent him to a place not far from Qian Renxue.

Since we need to find someone, how could we not have the current Pope help? Not letting Bai Yuan, as he is now, search for someone on the Douluo Continent would be like looking for a needle in the ocean.

At this moment, Qian Renxue is simultaneously merging five 100,000‑year soul bones, deep in meditation, completely unaware of anything outside.

Di Tian watched Bai Yuan's arrival, a flash of surprise in his golden eyes, then bowed and said, "Di Tian has seen you, Master… senior brother."

Because Qian Renxue is still here, the Angel God may be watching through her; after Di Tian recovered, he still called him senior brother.

Bai Yuan nodded slightly and asked, "How much longer does she need?"

Di Tian pondered briefly and said, "Five 100,000‑year soul bones, with her Title Douluo cultivation, should be completed within ten days to half a month."

Bai Yuan was speechless, sighed helplessly and said, "Once she finishes merging, you keep her, tell her I have business to attend to, and then you inform me later."

Di Tian replied, "Understood."

Bai Yuan gave a gentle nod and prepared to leave.

But at that moment, Di Tian suddenly called out to him.

"Senior brother, please stay."

Bai Yuan frowned, turned back to look at the hesitant Di Tian, and his dark eyes were filled with puzzlement.

"Anything else?" Bai Yuan asked.

Di Tian pondered briefly and said, "May I ask, senior brother, how much longer you will wait before imparting to us the cultivation technique?"

In fact, Di Tian had wanted to ask this for a long time.

After all, a Soul Beast cannot break through to the divine level; even he, with the aid of Dragon God Claw and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tower, still cannot reach the divine level.

It's utterly absurd.

But Bai Yuan had already promised to help him achieve the divine level.

Yet so far he hasn't given the cultivation technique.

At first, Di Tian didn't mind.

He thought it would be given sooner or later; he wasn't in a hurry.

But after witnessing Mu Junwu effortlessly step into the divine level without hindrance, and with a mortal body crush a divine‑level holder of a Super Divine Artifact, Di Tian's desire to cultivate became extremely urgent.

Bai Yuan felt a bit awkward, since he also wasn't sure whether the "Technique Treasure Chest" would produce a technique suitable for Di Tian.

After all, compared to Di Tian's urgent desire to cultivate, Bai Yuan also wanted Di Tian to quickly convert his cultivation, so that within a few years he could reach a complete Golden Core or even a half‑step Nascent Soul.

At this moment, Xue Di also stepped out of the forest beside them; her clear, ethereal sky‑blue eyes stared straight at Bai Yuan, filled with longing.

Breaking the Soul Beast's shackles and breaking through to the divine level is not only Di Tian's wish, but also one of the few desires in Xue Di's otherwise indifferent heart.

Beside Xue Di, Bing Di stood quietly, his jade‑green eyes gazing at Bai Yuan, also revealing longing.

Although Bai Yuan had told them that before establishing the Celestial Realm, the lifespan of the Nascent Soul stage is extremely short compared to a Soul Beast, that does not stop their yearning for higher realms.

Xiong Jun, Wan Yao Wang, Bi Ji, and Zi Ji emerged from the forest one after another, their gazes at Bai Yuan all the same.

To become a deity, which Soul Beast does not crave it?

Especially since all the Soul Beasts present clearly know that Mu Junwu spent only a dozen or so years following Bai Yuan, and his cultivation time was less than five years.

Five years pass in a blink for the ferocious beasts, yet Mu Junwu grew from an ordinary hundred‑year‑old tree Soul Beast to one capable of slaying every one of them present.

Bai Yuan looked at his disciples, showing an expression that he would not let them leave without handing over the technique, and a bitter feeling rose in his heart.

If he already had the technique, he would have taught it long ago; does he need to be rushed?

Is it useful now to force a palace‑like stance?

"Everyone calm down, I have no technique right now; it will take some time before I have one," Bai Yuan hurriedly explained.

The ferocious beasts didn't believe him at all, just stared straight at him.

Now there's no technique; how could there be one in the future?

But finally, after the silence, Di Tian spoke, "Senior brother, we trust you, but you must give us a deadline, right?"

Xue Di said, "Father, give a concrete number."

Bai Yuan shook his head slightly and replied honestly, "I don't know the exact time, but I can say there will be four techniques, their attributes random; when suitable for someone, I will pass it to them."

All the ferocious beasts' eyes flickered upon hearing this.

Attributes random, suitable for whom, then give to whom?

Anyway, none of them believe it.

Di Tian stepped forward first and said, "Senior brother, when the Master went on a journey, I carefully protected him; this slot must belong to me."

Then he turned back, glared at the other beasts, and wore a look that said, "Whoever dares to contest me, I'll ride in and beat them."

Bai Yuan could only feel speechless.

It is true that when he left, Di Tian protected him, but that protection was far from attentive—more like a tiny ant, lest he intervene.

So Bai Yuan decisively refused, "It all depends on luck."

Di Tian was momentarily stunned, then let out a light hum, unconcerned, saying he would see who dares to snatch his slot.

Beside him, Xue Di, at some point, flew to his side, took his hand, then looked up with those clear, ethereal sky‑blue eyes at Bai Yuan.

"Father, Xue Er should have a slot, right?"

Bing Di was startled for a moment, then echoed the same.

"Father, Bing Er should also have a slot, right?"

The other beasts fell into silence.

Xiong Jun couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Four slots were instantly pre‑assigned to three of them.

How are they supposed to survive!

Bai Yuan looked left and right, seeing on each side a stunningly beautiful woman with distinct charms, hearing their soft, pleasant voices and exceedingly friendly shouts, and for a moment was at a loss how to refuse.

"System! I hope you strive a bit, don't let me down." Unable to refuse, Bai Yuan silently prayed in his heart.

Hope that when opening 【Technique Treasure Chest】, two ice-attribute techniques appear.

…

…

Time flies.

After settling the disciples' palace-pressure problem, Bai Yuan will then accompany Mu Junwu's five forms in the Ice Fire Two Symbols Eye, and also urge Bai Yu and Wang Qiu'er to cultivate.

Of course, Gu Yue Na also occasionally comes to the Ice Fire Two Symbols Eye to cultivate feelings with Bai Yuan, and they wander around together.

As for the ferocious beasts, Bai Yuan sent them out to look for reincarnation grass and purple soul flower, and they were highly efficient, finding everything within a day.

However, the purple soul flower was mostly devoured by a soul beast.

That soul beast also exploded because of the medicinal effect.

This left Bai Yuan heartbroken.

Finally, ten days have passed.

That day, Qian Renxue completely fused with the five soul bones, she awakened, and Bai Yuan also left the Ice Fire Two Symbols Eye, seeing her again.

To find Xiao Xun'er, Bai Yuan dared not let the ferocious beasts go, because he also didn't know exactly which time period's Xiao Xun'er this was.

If it's the Xiao Xun'er before returning to the Ancient Clan, that's okay; but if it's the Xiao Xun'er after returning to the Ancient Clan, then on the Douluo Continent she would at least be god-level.
