Chapter 374 If Time Could Turn Back
Rumble!
It was like a thunderclap, the entire sky turned dark, and the vast Yunlan Sect was shrouded in shadow.

The towering stone gate, tens of thousands of feet high, and the equally large plaza suddenly appeared in the sky, throwing all the disciples into a panic.

Has someone attacked the Yunlan Sect?

"Don't panic, don't be flustered, it's me back." Qin Sheng's voice rang out.

"It's the Grand Elder!"

The Yunlan disciples were instantly relieved; with the Grand Elder there, the sky wouldn't fall.

In the nearby capital of Jiama, Jia Xingtian, Hai Bodong, and others watched the dramatic changes unfold and were filled with emotion.

“Every time that person comes back, they cause a huge commotion.”

"He's no longer from our world. A nine-star Dou Sheng, the number one alchemist on the continent... Heh, these are things we never dared to dream of before."

"Fortunately, I chose to stand with the Yunlan Sect back then."

Today, no one in the Jia Ma Empire has any disloyal intentions; they are all extremely loyal to the Yunlan Sect and the Grand Elder.

Everyone agrees that as long as we work hard for the Elder, better days are yet to come.

Qin Sheng used his spatial power to stabilize the entire ancient emperor's cave above the Yunlan Sect, intending to use it as the future gate of Yunlan Mountain.

Yun Yun, Little Fairy Doctor, and Venerable Heavenly Fire flew up, staring in astonishment at what they saw before them.

"Junior brother, what is this?" Yun Yun asked.

"The cave dwelling of Emperor Tuoshegu," Qin Sheng explained with a smile.

"The interior of the stone gate is a world of its own, no less impressive than the small world of the eight ancient clans."

"From now on, this cave world will be called Tuoshe Ancient World, and this will be the mountain gate of our Yunlan Sect."

Tuoshegudi was a good person, and Qin Sheng didn't mind leaving him a good name so that it would be passed down forever.

Elder Qin is a truly remarkable person.

"A small world just like the ancient realms of the eight clans." Venerable Heavenly Fire felt as if he were in a dream.

This is something only those with the bloodline of a Dou Di can enjoy!
"I obtained several hundred scrolls of Heaven-rank cultivation techniques and combat skills in the Ancient Emperor's Cave. Elder Yao, you have rendered meritorious service to the sect. You can choose a high-level Heaven-rank cultivation technique and any Heaven-rank combat skill to practice later," Qin Sheng said with a smile.

As for Yun Yun and Xiao Yi Xian, they are definitely our own people, no need to say more.

Venerable Tianhuo regained his senses and sighed, "How can such meager strength be considered meritorious?"

The best thing I ever did in my life was choosing to leave with the Grand Elder back in the underground magma world.

Being imprisoned in lava is no good at all. Coming to Yunlan Sect to contribute your own strength will open up a whole new world for you.

loyalty!

"Junior brother, you even brought back the ancient emperor's cave, could it be..." Yun Yun's face showed anticipation.

"Mm." Qin Sheng nodded with a smile.

"In the near future, I will become the first Dou Di in the tens of thousands of years of Dou Qi Continent."

This naturally shocked Yunyun and the others, but also made them extremely happy.

The Yunlan Sect is about to welcome its own Dou Di.

"This is Zi Yan's father, the previous Dragon Emperor of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan," Qin Sheng introduced Zhu Kun.

"Brother Qin, you're too kind. We're all family."

Qin Sheng led Yun Yun into the Ancient Emperor's Cave to familiarize her with the place, as the sect leader of Yunlan Sect. When they came out, they saw Gu Yuan, Yao Dan, and several other people.

Zhu Kun was chatting with Gu Yuan. The two were not far apart in strength and had something in common.

"It seems the two clan leaders have already made a decision?" Qin Sheng asked.

"This is an apology prepared by my Medicine Clan for Yao Wangui's offense against Brother Qin, and it also represents the sincerity of my clan."

The medicine pill handed over two strange flames and a soul jade slip.

Qin Sheng took the strange fire and swallowed it in one gulp. However, given the level of these two strange fires, they were not enough to significantly increase his strength.

However, the appearance of Di Yan, the number one on the Different Flame Ranking, undoubtedly brings us one step closer.

The jade slip contained several pill formulas, which Qin Sheng glanced at briefly and nodded slightly.

"The Medicine Clan is very kind. From now on, we are one family."

Family members, please support the Elder's spiritual practice more in the future.

"Brother Qin, could this be the ancient emperor's cave?" Gu Yuan stared at the massive stone gate, his eyes filled with deep surprise.

“That’s right, I have already obtained the opportunity to become a Dou Di. After obtaining permission from the ancient emperor Tuoshe’s inherited soul imprint, I also brought back his cave.” Qin Sheng nodded.

"From now on, Tuoshe Ancient Realm will be the 'Ancient Realm' and 'Medicine Realm' of Yunlan Sect."

Gu Yuan took a deep breath. Both opportunities to become a Dou Di had fallen into the hands of the Yunlan Sect. The young man in front of him was a nine-star Dou Sheng, and the old Dragon Emperor beside him was even stronger than himself.

If Qin Sheng, out of consideration for that little girl named Zi Yan, were to give the old Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Dragon Clan a chance...

Does that mean that two Dou Di will be born on the Dou Qi Continent soon?

Gu Yuan knew that the continent was changing. The era of the eight great imperial clans dominating everything was coming to an end. From now on, the Dou Di would be the supreme ruler, and all sects and clans would have to submit to him.

In this situation, there is only one choice.

“My clan possesses the inherited extraordinary flame, the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame. I wish to entrust it to Brother Qin to forge a bond between the ancient clan and Yunlan,” Gu Yuan said.

"The Sky Alliance welcomes everyone with good intentions; we enjoy making friends," Qin Sheng readily agreed.

"This is my daughter, Xun'er," Gu Yuan introduced. He had brought several people with him, one of whom was Gu Xun'er.

Qin Sheng: "..."

Why did you introduce your daughter to me?
"Greetings, Senior Qin." Gu Xun'er bowed.

When Qin Sheng took Nalan Yanran to the Xiao family, she had been secretly observing Qin Sheng and his group.

After discovering that they hadn't come to annul the engagement, and were actually quite courteous, the young lady of the ancient clan had a very good impression of the Yunlan Sect.

Ke Xun'er never imagined that the little sixth-grade alchemist from back then would reach this level several years later.

A nine-star Dou Sheng, instantly killing the Soul Emperor, and about to become the Dou Di, a figure unseen in ten thousand years...

No wonder the entire clan unanimously believes that Senior Qin was a reincarnation of a Dou Di (Battle Emperor), a view shared by the majority of the eight ancient clans.

Qin Sheng didn't care about this.

He knew that his rapid advancement in cultivation and his equally impressive alchemy skills went against the norm in the Dou Qi Continent, and that countless people would doubt and speculate about his situation.

so what?

Qin Sheng doesn't need to explain himself to anyone; he is the one who holds absolute power.

You, a mere fighter, dare to slander me, a "fighting emperor"? I have to prove my innocence for you.
"The Golden Emperor's Heaven-Burning Flame is sealed within my daughter's body; the two are one. Brother Qin, could you possibly extract it?" Gu Yuan explained the purpose of bringing Xun'er here.

"no problem."

The Golden Emperor's Burning Heaven Flame, the fourth extraordinary flame, is remarkably ranked at the Dou Sheng level.

However, it couldn't cause any trouble in front of Qin Sheng. It was easily taken out of Xun'er's body and refined by him using the Burning Technique.

"Once you reach the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm, the amount of Dou Qi needed to further improve your cultivation is boundless, to the point that even the Golden Emperor's Burning Heaven Flame is of little use." Qin Sheng sighed at the difficulty of cultivation.

"Clan Chief Yao, among the pill formulas you gave me is a ninth-grade golden pill used to enhance cultivation. I wonder if you can gather enough medicinal ingredients for one set?"

"Some can be found among the Medicine Clan," Yao Dan said.
"But when it comes to refining a ninth-grade golden pill, the medicinal materials are secondary; the real difficulty lies in how to refine it."

The nine grades of elixirs, from lowest to highest, are Precious Elixir, Profound Elixir, and Golden Elixir. The difficulty of refining each grade is countless times greater than breaking through a major grade in the previous alchemy techniques.

"Just collect the medicinal herbs for me, leave the rest to me," Qin Sheng said calmly.

Just because others can't do it doesn't mean you don't have the ability.

"The ancient clan's treasure trove is also open to Brother Qin, and you may take anything you need."

Gu Yuan's determination this time was stronger than ever before.

"I will also persuade the Yan Clan to gather the medicinal herbs for Brother Qin as quickly as possible."

Gu Yuan missed the Battle of Xiao Hun a thousand years ago, and he missed the present Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave. He was unwilling to give up this third opportunity.

Most importantly, this opportunity seems more reliable and safer than the previous two.

Qin Sheng nodded with satisfaction. "My men need to have this kind of spirit and this kind of drive."

Work hard, and when I become emperor, I will not treat you unfairly.

"Brother Qin, this is the most talented person in my Medicine Clan, named Yao Ling. May we allow her to join the Yunlan Sect for cultivation?" Yao Dan suddenly asked.

Yao Ling has long, azure hair and delicate features, but she is as cold as ice.

Qin Sheng looked at the woman and recalled her situation.

This person has a special physique and soul, and possesses unimaginable talent in the cultivation of the soul.

In the original storyline, excluding Xiao Yan as an exception, Yao Ling was the person with the best chance of reaching the Emperor Realm Soul.

Yao Dan's actions were clearly an expression of the Yao Clan's attitude.

"can."

"Brother Qin, my daughter also wishes to join the Yunlan Sect," Gu Yuan said at the opportune moment. It's as if I threatened you to send a hostage to the Yunlan Sect; you've underestimated the Grand Elder.

"Then let's go together."

Qin Sheng didn't pay much attention to the two girls. After seeing Gu Yuan and Yao Dan off, he left with Yun Yun.

"Senior Sister, have Protector Wu notify Yan Xiao to come to Yunlan Sect under the pretext of a Soul Hall mission."

"Xiao Yan?" Yun Yun nodded.

“Now that the Soul Clan is under your control, Junior Brother, the Xiao Family no longer needs to hide.”

“However, Junior Brother, Protector Wu has already advanced to Dou Zun and is now an Elder of the Soul Palace.”

……

Tianyuan Empire.

This is one of the most powerful kingdoms in the Northwest Continent, with a Dou Zun powerhouse in the royal family.

In the northern part of the empire lies the Valley of Weeping Souls, named for the inexplicable howling sounds that can shake the soul that can be heard there year-round.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

A man dressed in a black robe, exuding black energy, put away his battle wings and entered the Valley of Crying Souls.

"Little Yanzi, there's no one here, stop laughing like that." An aged voice echoed in the man's mind.

It was Xiao Yan and Yao Chen.

"Teacher, everyone in the Soul Palace is laughing like this, I can't be out of place," Xiao Yan said helplessly.

If he's a traitor, you're a traitor, and I'm the only one who isn't, then it's easy to tell who the mole is.
"I wonder what mission the Soul Hall has for you this time," Yao Chen said.
"It must be said that although the Soul Palace is a den of iniquity and its people are a bunch of rats that can't be brought to the light, its resources are indeed abundant."

Xiao Yan: "..."

Who do you scold?
"We'll find out soon enough," Xiao Yan sighed.

"The more you learn about the Soul Palace, the more pressure you feel. How can an individual possibly deal with such a force?"

Yao Chen remained silent, unable to bear discouraging his disciple. What was the Soul Palace compared to the Soul Clan behind it?

Xiao Yanzi, you have a long way to go.

"I wonder how Xun'er and Miss Nalan are doing," Xiao Yan said again.

"Leaving aside Xun'er, the Azure Sky Alliance has already expanded to the Tianyuan Empire. As the young sect master of the Yunlan Sect, you don't need to worry about Nalan Yanran."

After Xiao Yan entered the Soul Palace's stronghold here, a man in black robes walked up to him.

"Jie Jie Jie."

"Jie Jie Jie."

Xiao Yan immediately responded with a coded smile.

Qin Sheng ordered Hun Miesheng to recall the people of the Soul Palace, but this was to start with the Central Plains, luring those Dou Sheng, Half-Saint, and Dou Zun at the Ninth Revolution stage with particularly great destructive power back to the Soul Realm first.

Places like the Northwest Continent haven't been reached yet.

"Rock Soul Envoy, I have a task for you. Elder Wu Zun wants you to go to the Cloud Mist Sect."

Yunlan Sect?
Xiao Yan was filled with doubt and suspicion. Yunlan Sect was a partner of our Soul Palace. Why would they suddenly send me there?
But within the Soul Palace, there are only two paths when faced with a mission: accept or die. He could not possibly refuse.

"Yan Xiao understands, and is willing to die for Elder Wu Zun, hehehe..."

Laughter erupted again from the Soul Hall branch.

Xiao Yan quickly returned to the Jia Ma Empire through a hidden wormhole set up by the Soul Palace.

"I wonder if my father and the others are doing well in my hometown."

Breathing in the familiar air, Xiao Yan was overwhelmed with emotion.

After the three-year agreement ended, he left his hometown and wandered around the Northwest Continent, honing his skills, and never returned.

It wasn't that he didn't miss home or his family, but Xiao Yan knew that once he bore the name of the Rock Soul Envoy, he could no longer have any normal life in the human world.

They flew all the way to Yunlan Sect, where Xiao Yan was startled.

"What is that thing in the sky above the Yunlan Sect?"

The next second, the stars shifted and Xiao Yan appeared on Yunlan Mountain.

"Master Yao, Xiao Yan, it's been a long time." Qin Sheng smiled slightly.

"Senior Qin? Hehehe..." Before he could finish laughing, Xiao Yan slapped himself to interrupt himself and gave an awkward smile.

"Sorry, I'm used to it."

"Human nature."

Qin Sheng's eyes were strange. The Soul Hall's corporate culture was quite brainwashing.

Yao Chen's soul floated out, looking at Qin Sheng in shock, "I can't see through you at all now, what happened to you?"

"My cultivation has improved somewhat, so it's normal that you still can't see through me."

"What state are you in now?"

"Not high, only a nine-star Dou Sheng."

"What did you say?!" The master and disciple were completely stunned, as if struck by lightning.

Qin Sheng smiled, waved his hand, and gestured for them to sit down, saying:
"I had a stroke of luck and managed to break through to this realm. I asked Elder Wu to send you this message so we can talk."

"Nine-Star Dou Sheng, Nine-Star Dou Sheng..." Yao Chen murmured, still unable to believe it.

This is the most powerful figure on the continent. Even the patriarch of my Medicine Clan must show respect when facing a Nine-Star Dou Sheng.

"Firstly, I've already dealt with the Soul Clan, and the troubles with the Xiao family are no longer a problem..."

Qin Sheng told the two about Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, Xiao Chen, and Yao Wangui's physical body.

"My Xiao family was once an imperial clan? And we even have treasures related to the Dou Di's cave?" Xiao Yan was stunned.

What kind of imperial clan has a strongest member who is only a Grand Dou Master?
“That’s right, Xiao Yan. From now on, you don’t need to worry about the Xiao family anymore, and you can also be resurrected directly.” Qin Sheng looked at Yao Chen.

"If you don't want to use Yao Wangui's body, you can find another body."

If you dislike Yao Wangui, then Yao Chen will have to solve the problem of his physical body himself. The body of the Soul Emperor was prepared by Qin Sheng for the Yellow Spring Demon Saint.

"So many things have happened..." The master and apprentice looked at each other, feeling that everything was so unbelievable.

Yao Chen, in particular, knew that Qin Sheng was exceptionally talented and had successfully cultivated the Burning Technique, destined for greatness in the future.

But he always felt that it was already quite remarkable that Qin Sheng could become a Dou Sheng in such a short time.

Unexpectedly, we've already reached the limit of the Dou Sheng realm!
After a long silence, suppressing the endless emotions in his heart, Yao Chen said:
"Yao Wangui's physical body is indeed very suitable for me, so I shamelessly accepted it."

The Different Flame Resurrection Method transforms the physical body, allowing it to undergo the deepest level of reshaping and adaptation based on the soul.

In this way, his appearance and bloodline after resurrection are the same as his soul body before he was alive, so Yao Chen has no psychological barriers.

Although Yao Chen was expelled from the Yao Clan, the Yao Clan bloodline was passed down to him by his parents, and he could not sever it.

Moreover, that's the body of a four-star Dou Sheng! It will definitely allow Yao Chen to reach the Dou Sheng level after his resurrection.

After saying that, Yao Chen separated his Bone Spirit Cold Flame and handed it to Qin Sheng.

"I was originally going to ask you to find a different kind of fire that you don't need for Xiao Yanzi, but now... I'll just give it to you directly. Later, I will also have Xingyun Pavilion merge into Yunlan Sect."

"With your current strength, this is all I can do." Yao Chen smiled helplessly.

"That's enough."

The merger of the Starfall Pavilion into the Cloud Mist Sect is a more thorough move than joining the Azure Sky Alliance, and Yao Chen is naturally no exception.

Xiao Yan realized what was happening and quickly said, "Senior Qin, I'll also give you the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade from the Xiao family. That thing can only be used to its fullest potential if it's in your hands."

He had no other way to repay this kindness, so this was the only thing he could do.

Qin Sheng smiled and shook his head, pointing to the stone gate in the sky, "That is the ancient emperor's cave, which already belongs to the Yunlan Sect."

“Even without the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, I can still obtain the inheritance of the ancient emperor.”

"So, does this mean you're going to become a Dou Di?" Yao Chen looked up.

"Just lucky," Qin Sheng smiled.

"There will be no more ambitious figures like the Soul Emperor on the continent. Conflicts are inevitable, but there is no need to worry about a devastating crisis."

"You no longer need to bear such a heavy fate."

"It all feels like a dream," Xiao Yan murmured.

If time could turn back, everything could start over, and heaven would give fifteen-year-old Xiao Yan two more choices.

There are two paths: the original timeline, which led to the humiliation of a broken engagement, the extermination of the family, and the abduction of the father; and the current path.

What will he choose?

For Xiao Yan, this is a question that will never have an answer.

But Qin Sheng knew one thing: his arrival and his changes would make the world a more perfect place.
