1079. The Momentum of Leaving the Pass
1079. The Momentum of Leaving the Pass
After Little Fairy Doctor and Old Master Yao had settled their respective affairs, they reunited in the hall.
"This matter concerns both the Thunder Clan and the Medicine Clan. Shouldn't we call him out?" Little Fairy Doctor asked.
After pondering for a moment, the old apothecary finally nodded: "It's been almost a year since he last emerged from seclusion; it's time to get him out and about!"
The person Yao Lao and Xiao Yi Xian were referring to was none other than Xiao Yan, the true master of Guiyuan Mansion.
Because the Stone Clan was ambushed by the Soul Ancient Alliance, Xiao Yan once again felt his strength was insufficient. For the past three years, he had almost entirely stayed in seclusion within the Heavenly Tomb, only venturing out for a day or two at a time. The flow of time within the Heavenly Tomb was completely different from the outside world, allowing Xiao Yan more time to cultivate.
However, the current situation is quite important, and it requires Xiao Yan to come out and discuss it personally.
As a medium for communicating with the Heavenly Tomb space, Xiao Yan left his Three Thousand Thunder Illusionary Bodies outside. After all, once he truly immersed himself in cultivation, he could hardly perceive any information from the outside world, and the Heavenly Tomb itself was an extremely important resource. Not only Xiao Yan, but many powerful figures or rising stars of the Guiyuan Palace also wanted to enter the Heavenly Tomb to cultivate.
It was precisely because everyone was so eager for it, and although the Heavenly Tomb was vast, it couldn't accommodate too many people at once from a cultivation perspective, that Little Fairy Doctor made the qualification to enter the Heavenly Tomb a way to exchange contribution points. This not only didn't dampen the cultivation enthusiasm of the Guiyuan Mansion members, but instead made them even more proactive. A significant reason why Yan Yu and the others directly entered the tomb this time was to obtain more contribution points, so that they would have the opportunity to stay in the Heavenly Tomb for a longer period of time to cultivate.
On the afternoon of the same day that Little Fairy Doctor sent a message into the Heavenly Tomb, an extremely powerful aura emanated from the core area of the Returning Origin Realm.
The commotion was so great that nearly half of the Guiyuan Mansion disciples sensed it immediately and instinctively looked up at the sky.
Everyone could clearly see that the distant sky had begun to burn.
Cyan, sea blue, purplish black, blood red, light black, and extremely magnificent and noble golden flames appeared simultaneously in the sky.
Upon seeing this scene, the disciples quickly became restless.
"Look what's that?"
"Beast Fire!"
"No, this isn't ordinary beast fire; it's clearly a strange fire!"
"The only one who could possess so many different kinds of flames is Lord Xiao Yan himself!"
The commotion had been going on for a while, but no true Dou Sheng expert from Guiyuan Mansion came out to protect them. The disciples immediately realized that this was not some sudden accident, but rather the emergence of an important figure who had made great progress in his cultivation. From the information about the strange fire, they immediately confirmed that the person who had emerged was Xiao Yan.
Although there are a great many strange flames within Guiyuan Mansion, the only reason so many could appear at the same time is that Xiao Yan made a move.
"ha!"
A clear and resonant sound rang out, its force seemingly capable of piercing the clouds.
The crowd witnessed a truly awe-inspiring sight: the flames that filled the sky had lost their previous rampant ferocity, instead splitting apart with remarkable order, neatly creating a path through the middle.
A man and a woman emerged from it!
The woman wore a long, pale yellow dress, surrounded by regal golden flames. Most captivating of all was her breathtaking beauty—a flawless face, a gift from heaven. Even the simplest smile or frown seemed capable of stirring the hearts of countless people.
The first thought that crossed everyone's mind when they saw the woman was: she is absolutely worthy of any flame, no matter how noble or luxurious the clothes!
In comparison, the man beside the woman seemed rather ordinary, with nothing particularly striking about his face. But upon closer inspection, one could sense a unique depth and tranquility in his expression—a charm that could only be appreciated through careful observation.
The strange flames around him not only showed extreme obedience and submission to the man, but also constantly expressed their affection, just like children showing off their achievements to their parents.
These are all different flames, representing the most extreme crimson flame power on the continent, but in front of this man, all of them seem to be under his control.
"Disciple greets the Alliance Leader!"
"The Alliance Leader is invincible!"
Such a magnificent and grand scene captivated many disciples, who didn't even blink for a moment. Then, a cheer suddenly erupted from the crowd. This cheer seemed to ignite the entire crowd, and the enthusiastic shouts grew even more powerful, making many young disciples feel their blood boil with excitement.
However, this scene did not last long. Just when the atmosphere was about to get out of control, the flames began to subside, and the two figures in the sky quickly turned into streaks of light and disappeared.
A tremendous roar echoed from the core area of the Guiyuan Realm: "What we just witnessed was Lord Xiao Yan emerging from seclusion! Disciples, do not act recklessly!"
After that voice rang out, the extremely heated atmosphere in the entire arena finally subsided. However, the scene from just now was still deeply imprinted in the hearts of the disciples of Guiyuan Mansion, and it lingered for a long time.
……
"Xun'er, we went a bit too far just now. We should both control ourselves."
"What's the big deal? Brother Xiao Yan is so strong, and he's been in seclusion for so long. Even if he puts on a show for a whole month, it's still not too much!"
"You little brat, you just want me to embarrass myself, don't you?"
The two who emerged from seclusion were naturally Xiao Yan and Xun'er, who had remained in the Heavenly Tomb to cultivate. The scene just now was a natural consequence; Xiao Yan had been in seclusion for a long time, and his strength had indeed broken through during this period. Unable to suppress his inner pride, he simply released it. Clearly, the immense power, the overwhelming presence, and the stunning beauty of Xun'er as a foil made the scene far more sensational than Xiao Yan had anticipated.
"My current strength has reached the late stage of a three-star Dou Sheng. What about you?"
"I'm only a three-star Dou Sheng in the early stage, not as powerful as Brother Xiao Yan."
Xiao Yan patted Xun'er's head and said with a smile, "My three-star Dou Sheng late stage is the result of absorbing all the remaining energy of the Bodhi Heart, plus a ninth-grade pill specially refined for me by my teacher, and nearly fifteen years of cultivation in the Heavenly Tomb."
"You little rascal, you only reached the Dou Sheng level before you went into seclusion. Your speed should be much faster than mine."
Xun'er smiled and winked at Xiao Yan: "But you're still not as good as Brother Xiao Yan, exactly the same as before."
