Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 508 A Surge in Strength

As the power of the strange fire within Xiao Yan surged, the entire Endless Fire Domain seemed to be ignited, bursting forth with unprecedented dazzling light.

The light contained a variety of properties, and the entire Endless Fire Domain entered the climax of cultivation, completely activating the magma ocean near the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave, turning it into torrents of energy that rushed madly towards the deep cave in front of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave.

Xiao Yan closed his eyes and concentrated, his mind closely connected with every wisp of strange fire. He could clearly feel the flow and transformation of every bit of energy, as if he had become the master of this fire domain, guiding the endless power of the flames toward a higher level.

His soul power reached an unprecedented level at this moment, allowing him to easily perceive and guide these violent energies, making them obediently serve him.

Under Xiao Yan's guidance, the cultivation speed of each type of strange fire within the Endless Fire Domain increased once again.

In comparison, Xiao Yan has higher comprehension and a deeper understanding of cultivation.

The adjustments made to the cultivation techniques by the different flames made it easier for Xiao Yan to further improve his techniques.

The increased cultivation speed of various different flames also became a powerful boost to Xiao Yan's leap in strength.

They spun rapidly in the endless fire domain sky, weaving intricate runes and arrays between each other.

The formation of the massive array immediately enhanced Xiao Yan's absorption of external energy.

After Xiao Yan absorbed and refined it through the "Yuanling True Scripture," he further tempered it through this enormous array, transforming it into purer energy that nourished Xiao Yan and the entire Endless Fire Domain, becoming superior energy for public cultivation.

This superior energy, combined with the ultimate operation of Xiao Yan's internal cultivation technique, formed a method that far surpassed traditional battle qi cultivation.

Relying on the power of the strange fire, it continuously refines its energy, forming a unique endless fire domain space energy.

This energy contains terrifying effects, raising the level of the entire space and enabling faster and more effective cultivation.

As this special energy continued to flow in and transform, the aura of every creature in the Endless Fire Domain became increasingly powerful.

As Xiao Yan received nourishment from these living beings, his aura grew increasingly powerful. His body seemed to transform into a moving volcano, ready to erupt with world-destroying power at any moment.

And his soul, nourished by this power, became more resilient and powerful, even beginning to touch upon a higher level of the soul realm.

The strange flames within the Endless Fire Domain all began to sublimate during this process.

Their strength and wisdom are growing rapidly, and their connection with Xiao Yan is becoming increasingly close.

The strange flames are no longer simply intelligent flames, but have become loyal guardians of this endless fire domain, protecting this special space and the beliefs and pursuits in their hearts.

Even the incredibly deep magma surrounding the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave was nearly depleted of energy after Xiao Yan led the entire Endless Fire Domain to absorb it.

As the last bit of energy was completely absorbed, an indescribable wave suddenly erupted from Xiao Yan's body, instantly sweeping across the entire Endless Fire Domain.

The fluctuations were so intense that even the heavens and earth seemed to change color. The once peaceful cave of Emperor Tuoshe suddenly became stormy, with dark clouds gathering and thunder rumbling, as if a heavenly tribulation was about to occur.

But this was not a heavenly tribulation; rather, it was the world's response to Xiao Yan's earth-shattering breakthrough.

At this moment, the magma surrounding the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's cave began to boil violently, churning like never before, as if it had transformed into fiery dragons, roaring angrily, intertwining with the dark clouds and lightning inside the cave to create a breathtaking scene.

The array of strange flames surrounding the Endless Fire Domain pushed its strength to the limit at this moment.

Each different flame is no longer an isolated entity, but under the combined influence of the central imperial flame, they have transformed into a single whole, a wheel of flame formed from the essence of countless flames, slowly rotating above the endless fire domain, releasing an aura of world-destroying destruction.

With a deafening roar, most of the creatures in Xiao Yan's Endless Fire Domain absorbed enough energy to surpass their own limits and break through to a new realm.

Under the warm embrace of the unique energy of the Endless Fire Domain, the basic abilities of all living beings were greatly enhanced. After their breakthroughs, they would feed back some of the absorbed and refined energy to the Endless Fire Domain and to Xiao Yan.

At that very moment, Xiao Yan's aura surged dramatically.

At that moment, his figure seemed to be as high as heaven and earth, and as radiant as the sun and moon.

His eyes were like torches, piercing through the void, and the wheel of flames surrounding him released a dazzling light, illuminating the entire area in front of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave as if it were daytime.

The mutations did not stop there; on the contrary, they intensified.

Within the dark clouds, lightning intertwined, eventually converging into an incredibly thick pillar of lightning that slashed down, its target Xiao Yan.

However, facing this heavenly lightning that seemed capable of destroying everything, Xiao Yan simply smiled calmly. He gently raised his hand, and a ball of blazing flame condensed at his fingertips, directly confronting the heavenly lightning.

"boom!"

The two collided, unleashing a deafening roar. But what was astonishing was that the seemingly indestructible heavenly lightning was instantly vaporized upon contact with Xiao Yan's flames, leaving not a trace.

This scene not only shocked Zhu Kun outside the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave, but also made the Emperor-grade embryonic core inside the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave tremble upon feeling this power.

After his breakthrough, Xiao Yan's aura was so powerful that it defied description.

He stood there like a fiery king reigning over the world, wielding endless fire power, capable of turning this world to ashes at any moment.

Tuoshegudi!

Although Zhu Kun and the Emperor-grade embryonic pill reside in different places, they seem to be telepathically connected, and four words appear in their minds.

In their entire lives, they knew only one person who possessed such power and prestige.

Just then, the strange flames that had helped Xiao Yan cultivate seemed to have completed their sacred mission, and they all shone with a reluctant light.

Upon reaching the end of its borrowing period, it slowly detached itself from the vast and boundless space of the Endless Fire Domain.

They passed through the tiny, mysterious holes in the stone gate of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave, like shooting stars streaking across the night sky, and finally returned to their places, re-embedded in the solemn stone pillars of the Strange Fire Plaza, restoring the silence of the past.

As the tide of strange fire receded, the overwhelming aura surrounding Xiao Yan gradually subsided, and his figure slowly returned to its original state as the light faded, as if he had undergone a complete transformation.

The moment Xiao Yan returned to his original form, subtle and profound changes were revealed in the details.

His figure slowly coalesced as the light gradually faded, like an outline gradually emerging in the dawn, every inch of it exuding the breath of new life.

Nourished by the strange fire's light, the skin appeared even more translucent, as if it contained a faint flame glow, yet it was warm and not scorching.

The muscles that were originally tense from training now appear even more fluid and powerful as they relax, and the black robe on his body becomes even deeper in color.

Those dark eyes, in the instant the light faded, seemed to be relit, shining with an even brighter light than before.

His eyes revealed both resilience honed by hardship and wisdom that understood the ways of the world, as well as an endless curiosity and longing for the unknown.

Most importantly, Xiao Yan's temperament underwent a qualitative leap at this moment.

He stood there, no longer merely a powerful figure, but an being who seemed to have merged with this world, resonating with all things.

Every movement and every glance of his revealed a calm, confident, and composed demeanor.

When Xiao Yan had fully recovered, he slowly opened his eyes, looked at the distant horizon, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

This trip to the Tuoshegudi Cave has truly brought him immense benefits.

Of the few top experts in the world today, only the Soul Emperor can pose a threat to him.

If we could obtain the blood of Soul Clan's young patriarch, Soul Wind, the entire Soul Clan would be no threat.

The advantage in targeting bloodlines is simply too great.

Everything around returned to silence, with only the lingering warmth in the air telling the story of the earth-shattering breakthrough that had just occurred.

After a long while, Zhu Kun, the ancient and powerful Taixu Ancient Dragon Emperor, finally broke free from his deep shock and stared at Xiao Yan with disbelief in his eyes.

His voice trembled slightly, yet it couldn't hide the admiration within: "A Dou Zun... actually a five-star Dou Zun!"

In such a short period of time, Xiao Yan has crossed such a huge gap and directly jumped three stars. This kind of cultivation method is truly amazing!

He wasn't the only one who broke through three stars in strength at the Dou Zun level. Xiao Yan smiled inwardly.

The strength of all living beings in the Endless Fire Domain has been greatly enhanced.

The strange fire located in the sky, the Super Void Devouring Flame Medusa, has taken another big step forward from the level of a one-star Dou Sheng, and is constantly getting closer to the level of a two-star Dou Sheng.

Those who were originally at the Dou Zun level have now each increased by one star, and most of them have reached the level of a two-star Dou Zun.

However, the breakthroughs of those lesser-known figures like Ya Fei, Xiao Yu, and Han Yue were much greater.

However, the increase in combat power is far less than the changes after the strength of Dou Zun and Dou Sheng increases.

Meanwhile, the fire lizards below, aided by a large amount of energy, saw their cultivation progress significantly accelerated.

The remaining beings broke through their own strength bottlenecks. Among the geniuses of humanity, the best of the best have already reached the Dou Zong level, and the number of those who have advanced to Dou Huang is also increasing.

The originally unremarkable million-strong army, with suitable cultivation techniques and a rare training environment, all became powerful figures they never dared to dream of before.

And this is just the beginning.

With the rapid increase in the strength of numerous beings, although Xiao Yan's personal realm has only improved by three stars, if he were to unleash his full potential, his previous fighting style against Zhu Kun would be greatly altered.

Looking at the strange flames that had returned, the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.

Since these strange flames can leave this cave, does that mean I can leave too?

As a nascent imperial-grade pill, it is a rare treasure in the world, its power enough to shake mountains and rivers, yet it has always been sealed within the ancient emperor Tuoshe, like a prisoner.

The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave, as the cave left behind by a Dou Di powerhouse, possesses power beyond the imagination of all things in the world.

Looking at the strange fire in the Strange Fire Plaza, the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator no longer hesitated and decided to give it a try.

With a flash, the Emperor-grade embryonic core floated in mid-air. The flames surrounding it were intense and mysterious, yet they could not penetrate the barrier above the cave, as if time and space had been frozen.

Although its eyes gleamed with determination and untamed spirit, when faced with the calm and profound atmosphere of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave, even that untamed spirit couldn't help but be mixed with a touch of solemnity.

"Hmph, a mere Yi Dan dares to presume to shake the ancient Emperor Tuoshe's cave dwelling?"

As if in response to the challenge from the Emperor-grade embryonic core, the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave allowed the Emperor-grade embryonic core to unleash its abilities.

As the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator waved his hands, the flame elements in the world boiled and the fire dragon roared, but it only stirred up ripples on the surface of the cave.

The dazzling ball of light coalesced once more, possessing both destructive power and subtle manipulation of the laws of space. However, before the ancient and complex runes and formations of the cave, these attacks appeared so pale and powerless.

The ball of light exploded, and the sea of ​​fire spread, but it only made the seal of the cave even more indestructible. The cracks that tried to tear through space vanished like bubbles the moment they came into contact with the seal.

The Emperor-grade embryonic pill darted between the sea of ​​fire and the cracks, exhausting its boundless power with each strike, yet failing to shake the ancient cave in the slightest.

Inside the cave, ancient runes and formations seemed to possess a life of their own, flowing ceaselessly. They resonated with each other, forming an indestructible barrier that neutralized the attacks of the Emperor-grade embryonic pill.

Those runes shimmered with the light of wisdom; they were not merely manifestations of power, but also the crystallization of the ancient emperor Tuoshe's profound understanding of the laws of heaven and earth.

As the towering stone statue let out a low groan, an even more powerful force surged forth, completely suppressing the attack of the Emperor-grade embryonic core.

The body of the Emperor-grade embryo trembled under this power. It finally realized once again that although it was powerful, it was as insignificant as an ant even in front of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe.

Its power could not penetrate the small hole in the stone door.

In the end, the Emperor-grade nascent pill had no choice but to withdraw its attack, its voice filled with resentment and frustration.

"The might of a Dou Di is beyond my reach..."

As the words fell, it transformed into a dim stream of light and slowly retreated to its original position, while the ancient cave of Tuoshe remained standing as if it had never been shaken.

Seemingly sensing something within the cave of the ancient Tuoshe Emperor, Xiao Yan glanced at the calm stone door.

The reason why the strange fire could come out of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave was because he had many strange fires in his body, and his cultivation method was the "Yuanling True Scripture", which was many times more profound than the Burning Technique.

The two interact and their appeal is so strong that it can break through limitations, but it is only a temporary measure.

But a nascent imperial-grade pill... unless it first transforms itself into a different kind of flame.
