Battle Through the Heavens: Exceptional Comprehension, Becomes Emperor at Ten Years Old

Chapter 225 Heading to the Thunder Clan!

Xiao Xuan was not surprised by the disappearance of the Heavenly Tomb, but he did not expect this day to come so soon!

Xiao Xuan turned to Xiao Yan and Xun'er and said, "You two, come with me!"

"This is deep within the Heavenly Tomb, where the energy of heaven and earth is extremely rich. It is a suitable place for you to cultivate, and no one will disturb you!" Xiao Xuan said to Gu Qingyang and the other three.

Gu Qingyang and the other three naturally had no objection to Xiao Xuan's arrangement and nodded in agreement.

As Xiao Xuan and his companions disappeared into the stone tablet, Gu Qingyang and the other three breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Hua said, "Senior Xiao Xuan's aura is truly terrifying. No wonder he's a powerful figure that the Soul Clan fears!"

Gu Qingyang nodded slightly and said, "If it weren't for Senior Xiao Xuan's entire clan's effort to break through to the Dou Di realm back then, which simultaneously attracted the encirclement and suppression of the Soul Clan, causing them to suffer heavy losses, the other six clans wouldn't have been able to recuperate for such a long time!"

Gu Xing suddenly said, "If our Gu Clan and Xiao Clan had stood on the same front back then and wiped out the Soul Clan, wouldn't our Gu Clan be the only dominant force now?"

Gu Qingyang frowned and said, "Be careful what you say! Since our Gu clan did not take action back then, there must have been considerations of the clan elders."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xing remained silent.

The four of them stopped their discussion and instead sat cross-legged around the stone tablet to begin their cultivation.

Although the flow of time in the Heavenly Tomb is much slower than outside, one cannot stay here indefinitely. When the time is up, one will be expelled, so they dare not delay.

A hundred miles away, Gahe sat cross-legged in the void, the energy of heaven and earth around him seemingly materializing. As time passed, a strange heartbeat suddenly emanated from Gahe's body.

Thump, thump!

As Jiahe's heartbeat echoed throughout the entire Heavenly Tomb, the heartbeats of all the ancient family members who had entered the Heavenly Tomb to cultivate also unconsciously synchronized with Jiahe's.

Under this subtle influence, everyone's cultivation speed seemed to have increased significantly.

A year and a half passed quickly.

A sudden fluctuation emanated from Gahe's body, and strange ripples spread from him, instantly pulverizing the tangible energy of heaven and earth.

Gahe opened his eyes, his fighting spirit roaring through his meridians, faintly emitting a sound like a dragon's roar.

"Nine-star Dou Sheng early stage, such power is truly captivating!" Jiahe murmured.

At this moment, Gahe had no aura, but his every move was in harmony with the world around him. Although he did not exude any aura, as long as he stood there, he had the feeling of a towering mountain!

After absorbing the soul of the Heavenly Tomb, Jiahe has completely taken control of the Heavenly Tomb. He is now the master of this place, and anyone who wants to come in or leave must have his decision!

After becoming the Lord of the Heavenly Tomb, Jiahe also learned about the time in the outside world. Half a year had passed, and it was time to leave this place!

With a thought, Jiahe teleported all the members of the ancient families inside the Heavenly Tomb out, while Jiahe arrived outside Xiao Xuan's cave.

Xiao Xuan had already revealed himself when Jiahe arrived here.

"Congratulations on advancing to the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm, young friend!" Xiao Xuan said with a smile.

Gah smiled and said, "Senior, you've been here for so long, aren't you going to go out and take a look?"

Xiao Xuan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this and said, "Me? Just a wisp of a remnant soul. I can only spend my days consuming energy in this Heavenly Tomb. Getting out is as difficult as ascending to heaven!"

Jiahe, however, said, "I have a method to help you cultivate your soul body, so that you can leave the Heavenly Tomb directly!"

"Help me cultivate my soul body?" Xiao Xuan asked, somewhat surprised.

Jiahe nodded and said, "Yes, senior, you only have a wisp of remnant soul, but you were still a half-step Dou Di powerhouse in your previous life, and you were in a special soul-nourishing place within the Heavenly Tomb, so resurrection is naturally not a problem!"

"How do you know all this?" Xiao Xuan asked, looking at Jiahe.

After taking control of the Heavenly Tomb, Jiahe finally understood why that Dou Di powerhouse had created a place like the Heavenly Tomb.

The Heavenly Tomb is a vast place for nurturing souls. By simply placing a wisp of a remnant soul into the Heavenly Tomb, where time flows at a different pace than the outside world, one can use the Heavenly Tomb to revive the person they wish to revive.

Presumably, that Dou Di back then also wanted to use a place like the Heavenly Tomb to resurrect someone who was extremely important to him.

Jiahe couldn't help but admire the Dou Di's skill. However, although this Heavenly Tomb could nurture a soul, it would probably take tens of thousands of years for a remnant soul to be nurtured to the point of being able to revive!

Even in a place like the Heavenly Tomb, where time flows at nearly six times the speed of the outside world, it would still take several thousand years.

Moreover, Jiahe could sense that this Heavenly Tomb had undergone an anomaly. The newly born Heavenly Tomb might have a time flow rate that was more than ten times that of the outside world, or even nearly twenty times!

When it comes to the art of nourishing the soul, time is one aspect, but the method of nourishing the soul is equally important, which involves the cultivation techniques for the soul!

The Soul Technique that Jiahe possesses can perfectly solve this problem. Although the current time flow rate in the Heavenly Tomb is only six times that of the outside world, it is more important to a soul that cultivates the Soul Technique than a time flow rate of twenty times.

Jiahe looked at Xiao Xuan and said, "I learned all this after I devoured the soul of the Heavenly Tomb."

Xiao Xuan had no doubts. After all, beings like the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb appeared after the birth of the Heavenly Tomb, so it was not surprising that they knew some secrets!

"Then why did you help me?" Xiao Xuan asked, looking at Jia He.

Gah said, "I have a grudge against the Soul Clan, and so do you. Isn't the enemy of my enemy my friend?"

Xiao Xuan looked at Jia He, then solemnly said, "Thank you!"

Gah smiled and said, "It's not too late to thank me after you're resurrected!"

Immediately, Jiahe imparted the Soul Technique to Xiao Xuan, saying, "Cultivating this Soul Technique will allow your soul to be nurtured and nourished. Combined with the different energy of heaven and earth in this Heavenly Tomb and the different flow of time compared to the outside world, I believe you should be able to leave the Heavenly Tomb within three years!"

Xiao Xuan's talent goes without saying. Back then, he was able to lead the hopes of his entire clan to challenge for the Dou Di realm. If it weren't for the lack of the primordial energy of heaven and earth, he would have already stepped into the Dou Di realm.

Gah did not stay here for long; he turned around, tore through space, and left the Heavenly Tomb.

Outside the Heavenly Tomb, all the members of the ancient families had come here.

The two Soul Clan members who entered the Heavenly Tomb were both swept into the energy storm and their bodies were never recovered. One member of the Stone Clan also lost his life in the storm, but his body was eventually brought out.

After all, the Heavenly Tomb is extremely dangerous, and it is not surprising that one would lose their life there. The elders of the Soul Clan could only suffer in silence. Although they wanted to attack Xiao Yan, all their attacks were blocked by Xun'er and the people of the Ancient Clan.

After all, the ancient clans are quite satisfied with Xiao Yan now. Under Xiao Xuan's command, Xiao Yan has obtained the Xiao clan bloodline, awakened the clan mark, and directly advanced from a seven-star Dou Zun to a nine-star Dou Zun.

With such a young nine-star Dou Zun, how could the ancient clans not have a good opinion of her? Especially now that Xun'er has awakened a divine bloodline, it's no use for them to object!

At this moment, Gahe's appearance caused everyone present to look at him.

Huo Zhi stared at Jia He, then turned to Huo Xuan and asked, "When you were cultivating in the Heavenly Tomb earlier, did you sense a strange fluctuation? It felt like someone else's heartbeat?"

Huo Xuan looked at Huo Zhi with some surprise and asked, "You felt it too?"

Huo Zhi said, "It was because of that heartbeat that I advanced to the peak of the Eight-Star Dou Zun. You also successfully advanced to the Nine-Star level, right?"

"Moreover, I observed that among those who entered the Heavenly Tomb, almost all of them had made leaps of three stars or above, which has never happened before in previous trips to the Heavenly Tomb!" Huo Zhi said.

Huo Xuan didn't observe as carefully as Huo Zhi, but after taking a look, he also noticed this suspicious point.

"You suspect it's related to Gahe?" Huo Xuan said in a low voice.

Huo Zhi said, "Yes, the only ones unaffected by that heartbeat are probably Xiao Yan and Gu Xun'er. If I remember correctly, Xiao Yan is a descendant of the Xiao clan, and Xiao Xuan's cave is inside the Heavenly Tomb!"

"Xiao Yan and Gu Xun'er, who entered Xiao Xuan's cave, were the only ones who were unaffected!" Huo Zhi analyzed.

Upon hearing this, Huo Xuan immediately agreed and said, "This... is Jiahe's strength really that terrifying? He can actually affect us?"

Huo Zhi nodded and said, "This person definitely has many secrets!"

Huo Xuan was slightly startled and said, "What are you going to do? He's not someone our Yan Clan can afford to offend!"

Huo Zhi said, "Why provoke him? Can't the Yan Clan invite him to their clan as a guest?"

Huo Xuan suddenly realized and said, "Oh, so that's what you meant. I understand. Shall we go invite them later?"

"We need to go back and discuss this with the clan leader. What if the clan leader doesn't agree to our invitation?" Huo Zhi said.

"That's true, let's talk about it when we get back to the Yan Clan!" Huo Xuan said.

As soon as Jiahe appeared, Mang Tianchi approached him and said, "You're finally out! You scared me half to death; I thought something had happened to you inside!"

Gah laughed and said, "Dean, you're overthinking it!"

Mang Tianchi said, "I can't tell your cultivation level at all. It seems you've gained some good fortune inside?"

Gah nodded slightly and said, "More or less."

Mang Tianchi said, "That's good. Now you should come with me. I have something to tell you: the Spirit Realm of the Spirit Clan has suddenly closed!"

Seeing Mang Tianchi's mysterious appearance, Jiahe wasn't too surprised.

"It looks like the Soul Clan has started to make their move!" Gahe said.

Mang Tianchi asked, "Is it really the Soul Clan?"

Gah did not answer, but said, "Let's set off and leave the ancient tribe first."

"Alright!" Mang Tianchi didn't ask any further questions!

Meanwhile, the elders of the ancient clan also conveyed the news of the closure of the Spirit Realm to Xiao Yan and Xun'er's group. Xun'er was forbidden from leaving the Ancient Realm because of her identity and divine bloodline.

Before leaving the ancient realm, Jiahe met with Gu Yuan. The sudden closure of the spirit realm had already caught Gu Yuan's attention.

Ancient families each had their own defenses. Now that the spirit realm is closed, everyone in the race is bound to be on edge. As the strongest ancient race and soul race, they naturally become the targets of the other races' defenses, which is an unavoidable situation!

Fortunately, the Spirit Realm is only closed; it has not yet been discovered that the clans have been exterminated. It will be at that time that the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan will be truly excluded by the other clans!

Gu Yuan knew that Jiahe was going to the Lei Clan this time, and he hoped that Jiahe could make the Lei Clan lower their guard against the Gu Clan and work together to deal with the Soul Clan!

Gu Yuan also regretted not standing with the Xiao Clan to completely annihilate the Soul Clan back then, which led to the current situation.

After bidding farewell to Gu Yuan, Jiahe followed Mang Tianchi towards the Lei Clan.
