Chapter 561: Preparing for the Breakthrough

In the Burial Soul Mountain Range, except for a few experts who could resist the tremor and lift their heads, most others had their heads firmly lowered. It felt as if the slightest attempt to lift their heads would result in them being crushed by the immense pressure.

"Xiao Ming, what should we do with this illusory figure?" Zi Yan asked. She didn't feel much pressure standing beside Xiao Ming.

"The illusory figure contains the location of the Tou She Ancient God Mansion within its eyes. Although it's just an illusory figure, it was left by the Tou She Ancient God himself, so we should let it dissipate on its own. We already know the location of the Mansion, after all..."

While others might not be aware, Xiao Ming knew that the energy contained in the illusory figure was not something even a Nine-Star Dou Saint could recklessly tamper with.

After a moment, the illusory figure gradually dissipated.

Xiao Ming gestured, and the Ancient God's Jade slowly landed in Zi Yan's hands.

"Remember not to let your father enter the Mansion."

"Why is that?" Zi Yan asked, tilting her head in curiosity. She trusted Xiao Ming deeply and didn't think he would want to keep everything to himself.

"The Mansion contains a Di Tier Embryonic Pill. Hun Tiandi collected the Ancient God's Jade for this very pill. The strength of this pill has already reached the Half-Dou God realm. Your father wouldn't have a chance, so it's best if he doesn't provoke it."

Xiao Ming had no particular interest in the Di Tier Embryonic Pill. Although it had been trapped in the Ancient God's Mansion for so long that it lacked combat experience, it was still powerful and could easily take on four Nine-Star Dou Saints. Therefore, there was no point in provoking it.

In his opinion, instead of coveting the Di Tier Embryonic Pill, it would be better to ally with it. After all, it was a powerful expert. In the future, it would be beneficial to have some strong companions to look out for each other when traversing the Great Thousand World. The Di Tier Embryonic Pill was a suitable candidate.

Moreover, opening the Tou She Ancient God's Mansion would be a great favor to the Di Tier Embryonic Pill that had been trapped inside. Having been confined to the Mansion for so long, the pill was naive and straightforward compared to others. This made it easier to ally with it.

The Di Tier Embryonic Pill would also benefit from having more companions. After all, such a powerful transformed medicinal pill was coveted by many. It would be extremely difficult for it to move around any world without drawing unwanted attention to itself.

Zi Yan's eyes widened, "Xiao Ming, aren't you going to come with me to rescue my father?"

Xiao Ming calmly explained, "I must first return to the Heavenly Court to inform Medusa and your other sisters of our safety. After that, I will begin the process of devouring the Nihility Devouring Flame in order to increase my strength."

He would have accompanied her under normal circumstances.

This time, however, he had a few things to consider.

He believed that when Zhu Kun saw that his strength surpassed that of a Nine-Star Dou Saint, he might insist on testing the strength of the Di Tier Embryonic Pill. It seemed wiser for him not to go.

Even if Zhu Kun didn't insist on it, he still needed strength to try to win over others. Without it, Xiao Ming would not feel secure, even if the Di Tier Embryonic Pill was willing to find a powerful faction to settle in.

Nevertheless, his reasons were genuine. He planned to refine some pills in these months, and with the energy of the Nihility Devouring Flame and the pills, he would attempt to break through to the Dou God realm!

Zi Yan thought for a moment before she replied, "Then I'll wait for you to finish with the flame so we can go together."

Zhu Zhen: ...

Xiao Ming blinked and thought for a moment.

"That works. I'll cultivate in the Heavenly Tomb anyway. Time flows differently there. It won't take more than three months in the outside world. You can wait for me if you like, and then we'll set off together."

...

At the entrance of the Tou She Ancient God Mansion, Zhu Kun's massive head suddenly sneezed, causing an echoing sound.

"What's going on? How can I sneeze at my level? Could it be that my dear daughter is thinking of me? He he he!"

...

A few days later.

The news of the great battle between the Heavenly Court and the Three Clans against the Hun Clan at the Burial Sky Mountain Range, along with the news of the annihilation of the Hun Clan, spread throughout Central Plains.

This caused a massive commotion throughout the Central Plains. Even secluded faction forces with limited access to information emerged to clearly understand the details of this event.

The Hun Clan's actions before their defeat, as directed by Xiao Ming, were widely disseminated throughout the Central Plains.

After learning of Hun Tiandi's heinous acts, the people of Central Province unanimously rejoiced at the news of the Hun Clan's annihilation.

Many wished to have been first-hand witnesses to this historic battle.

According to some third-party observers who watched the battle from afar, the scene was described as cataclysmic, with darkened skies, shattered mountains and rivers, and stars shifting in their courses. It was a grand spectacle, unlike anything else they had seen before.

The main hero of this battle - Xiao Ming - had gone from being the strongest in the Heavenly Court to becoming the undisputed strongest expert across the entire Dou Qi Continent!

Countless experts who had previously been eager to join the Heavenly Court were now even more desperate to be a part of it.

In the courtyard, Xiao Ming watched as Zi Yan played with Xiao Yue and Xiao Ke'er. The laughter of three girls, two small and one tall, filled the air, bringing a smile to his face. Zi Yan was very fond of the two girls, and given her friendly nature, the trio got along exceptionally well.

He did not doubt that Zi Yan would be an exceptional mother in the future.

"Ancestor Xiao Chen, have you gathered all the medicinal ingredients?"

Xiao Ming turned his head away from the joyful scene and looked at Xiao Chen who was sitting in the stone pavilion.

Xiao Chen, holding a teacup, took a sip before nodding and tossing a storage ring to him.

"Here are the medicinal materials you need for refining the Ninth-Tier Golden Pill. They were incredibly hard to find. Even after searching all over Central Plains, I barely managed to gather a few sets of ingredients."

Xiao Ming caught the storage ring and scanned its contents with his soul power, his lips curving into a smile.

"Combined with what I had before, this should be enough."

"Good to hear. There's no one better than you in alchemy. If you think it's enough, then it must be." Xiao Chen responded with relief. "But are you sure about trying to break into the Dou God realm in the Heavenly Tomb now? You're still young. Perhaps it would be more prudent to wait for a few more years of accumulation?"

Xiao Ming was confident. "With the Nihility Devouring Flame and these Golden Pills, I have what I need for the breakthrough. Advancing to the Dou God realm is crucial for refining the Di Tier Pill and resurrecting Ancestor Xiao Xuan. I'm pretty confident about this breakthrough, at least eighty percent sure."
