As this blood-colored light shot in, the blood pool suddenly began to boil, and blood bubbles kept popping up. At the same time, strands of strange blood-colored liquid separated from the water in the pool, and finally climbed up Xiao Yan's body, pouring in continuously through his pores.

As these blood-colored liquids filled with strange energy entered Xiao Yan's body, his originally extremely pale skin gradually turned a little red, and his dry skin slowly began to rebound.

The ancient hall was completely silent, except for the sound of gurgling with blood bubbles, which was constantly echoing in the hall. Under this silence, one month passed quickly.

"Gulu."

In the blood pool, blood bubbles kept rolling. Xiao Yan's skin had now returned to its previous appearance, and he looked full of vitality. Outside his body, one could vaguely see countless blood threads constantly pouring out, and finally pouring into his body. Along with this infusion, Xiao Yan's aura was also gradually rising.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Xiao Xuan was relieved at this time. Now that all the steps have been completed, it is not up to him to worry about the next step. However, what surprised him was that Xiao Yan in front of him obviously had a very solid foundation.

Then, Xiao Xuan turned his gaze to Xiao Miao who was standing beside him, and spoke in a slightly deep voice:

"There is only one spot for blood transfusion. If that's the case, I'm really mistreating you. Is there anything I can do to help you?"

Hearing this, Xiao Miao on the side also stood up hurriedly, but thinking that he could not break through to the Fighting Saint level, he decided to speak. After all, the person in front of him was once the strongest man in the continent, just like Gu Yuan, and might be able to know the situation in his body.

He immediately told Xiao Xuan the situation and looked at the man in front of him with expectation.

On the contrary, the look in Gu Xun'er's eyes darkened again. It seemed that someone had not given up yet. However, seeing the situation she described, it should not be something that can be done so easily.

Hearing what Xiao Miao said, Xiao Xuan was shocked. He did not expect that the junior in front of him had reached the peak level of Dou Zun two or three years ago. It was terrifying to reach this level at such a young age. He must be the best person in the Dou Qi Continent from ancient times to the present.

At this time, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but ponder in his heart. In fact, he didn't quite understand this situation. According to the breakthroughs of ordinary people, if he wanted to break through to the Douluo level, he had to grasp that illusory perception.

However, the person in front of him had obviously grasped the barrier to breakthrough, but he couldn't break through it no matter what, which was a bit strange.

For them, the difficulty lies not in breaking through the barrier of the realm, but in seizing the opportunity of breakthrough and finding that barrier.

At this time, Xiao Miao looked at Xiao Xuan with a distressed look, and couldn't help but turn his gaze to Gu Xun'er beside him. His eyes flickered, and with this expression, he looked extremely pitiful, making people want to pity him.

Seeing the look on the face of the man next to her, how could Gu Xun'er not know what he was thinking? He obviously wanted to know how she had made the breakthrough. On the one hand, she couldn't bear to see the young man's pitiful look, but on the other hand, she didn't want the young man to find a chance to break through so as not to escape her control. This made her feel extremely conflicted.

Gu Xun'er's delicate brows were tightly furrowed, and at this moment, Xiao Miao's voice sounded again.

"Sister Xun'er, tell me, okay? At worst, we can do something you like later, such as..."

Seeing the man approaching and saying something, Gu Xun'er's heart was suddenly filled with heat and her eyes narrowed slightly. It was obvious that she could not resist the man's temptation at all.

In fact, in addition to the huge amount of resources from the ancient clan, the most important thing for her to break through to the Douluo Saint level was the ancient Bodhi body left in the Bodhi Valley. As long as she practiced this martial art and fighting skill, when things came to fruition, combined with the Bodhi seeds in the inheritance space, it would be easy for her to break through to the Douluo Saint level. As for the large amount of resources, she used them to practice the ancient Bodhi body and absorb energy during the breakthrough.

But she would not honestly tell the man in front of her all this. After hesitating for a moment, she opened her mouth slightly when Xiao Miao showed an expectant expression:

“At that time, I just absorbed a large amount of energy, and suddenly I felt the opportunity for a breakthrough, and then I broke through in one fell swoop.”

Hearing this, Xiao Miao frowned, obviously very dissatisfied with the answer of the woman in front of him. It was obvious that she was trying to fool him, not knowing what it meant to suddenly absorb a large amount of energy and then have a breakthrough.

Xiao Xuan, who was standing by, heard the conversation between the two and was stunned. Breakthrough?

Then he looked at Gu Xun'er. This girl had already broken through to the level of Dou Sheng. In his perception, she was clearly at the peak of Dou Zun realm. He immediately explored his perception again, and this time he actually discovered a trace of shallow holy power. He couldn't help but be shocked that Gu Xun'er had actually broken through to the level of Dou Sheng.

At this moment, he couldn't help but wonder whether the two people in front of him were too evil, or whether it had become very easy to break through to the Douluo Saint level outside, as he had actually encountered two of these evil people at once.

However, after listening to Gu Xun'er's words, he thought of a possibility. Since Xiao Miao felt the barrier being broken through, and thinking about what he had just said about absorbing a large amount of energy, it seemed that he could give it a try.

Chapter 252 Gu Xun'er's Fear and Strange Fluctuations

Xiao Xuan's eyes flickered, and a hint of excitement flashed in his heart. Looking at the extremely handsome man in front of him, he actually felt a bit of anticipation for a moment. If possible, perhaps he could also witness him becoming a Dou Sheng again. He spoke immediately.

"If that's the case, then let you absorb a lot of energy. Since you've reached the threshold of a breakthrough, then force a breakthrough and try. You can't be reasoned with by common sense. If you do it the other way around, maybe you can get some special results."

After hearing what Xiao Xuan said, Xiao Miao fell silent for a while. It seemed that what he said made sense. In fact, he had asked Old Man Tianqu and Yao Chen about this matter before, but they had no clue. Now the method provided by Xiao Xuan might really be possible.

On the contrary, Gu Xun'er who was standing by couldn't help but feel a little shocked when she heard these words. Why did he suddenly come up with such an idea? She was just talking casually, wanting to persuade him to let go of it and take things step by step. But now her face became a little gloomy, but due to the presence of many people, she could do nothing about it.

However, although they have an idea now, this huge amount of energy is another problem. Although the energy body in the Tianmu contains energy and can be absorbed by them, it is unknown how long it will take to store the energy needed for a breakthrough if they want to preserve it.

Xiao Miao could foresee that the energy he would need to break through was probably much more than that of his peers.

Seeing the look on Xiao Miao's face in front of him, Xiao Xuan could guess a little in his heart and immediately smiled faintly. The thing that was most abundant in this Heavenly Tomb was positive energy. In this third floor, it could be said that he was the one who was in complete control. The people that he had gathered on a daily basis could now be put to use.

"You don't have to worry about the energy. Just let me handle it. You go into the other blood pool first, and I will supply the energy from then on."

Hearing this, Xiao Miao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. In that case, he just needed to stand aside, and then stepped into another blood pool, sitting cross-legged, mobilizing the energy and fighting spirit in his body to attack the solid barrier.

Xiao Xuan looked at the man in front of him slowly sitting in the blood pool, feeling the energy in the blood pool being continuously absorbed. He had stored a lot of energy here over the years. Now Xiao Yan only needed a blood transfusion, and with his strong foundation, he didn't need too much energy at all. Most of the energy was directed to Xiao Miao.

In his perception, the energy in the pool was dissipating rapidly. If this continued, the energy he had accumulated over the years would be completely dissipated within a few months. The previously rich, indissoluble blood-red color was actually beginning to fade a little at this moment. Although the change was small, it could not escape everyone's eyes.

Gu Xun'er on the side watched the scene in front of her with a frown, but she was helpless. Now, under Xiao Xuan's nose, she had no way to stop the young man in the blood pool. She could only watch and feel the energy in the field constantly gathering in the pool and finally being absorbed into his body.

Xiao Xuan in the room saw it very clearly, but he was also a little curious. The girl from the ancient clan in front of him was obviously interested in Xiao Miao, but it seemed that she didn't want him to break through. This contradiction made him feel a little interesting. However, having said that, if she wanted to interrupt the breakthrough of the man in front of him, he would not allow it.

After all, no matter what, he is still a member of his Xiao clan. Even if he does not have the Xiao clan's blood, after living with him for so many years, he must help the young man just to support the Xiao family's continuous development.

However, this conjecture is just his guess, and the specific situation depends on the boy himself.

Seeing Xiao Miao and the other man both in their respective blood pools, Gu Xun'er could only wait quietly on the side. As for taking action under Xiao Xuan's eyes, she was not arrogant enough to that extent. You know, he was a top Fighting Saint during his lifetime, and even Gu Yuan had revealed it before. Even now, he would not dare to act rashly.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, a year has passed quietly in this silent ancient temple.

During this year, Gu Xun'er was basically in a state of waiting and watching. Although the energy here was the most concentrated in the sky, she still didn't want to give up the last glimmer of hope. But unfortunately, under the stare of Xiao Xuan at the side, she couldn't find any opportunity to act.

Looking at the two people in the blood pool in front of him, Xiao Yan did not have anything to worry about. Everything was going well. The focus was on Xiao Miao. At this time, the blood pool around him had begun to become clear, with only a faint blood-red color floating on it. You have to know that this was the result of his continuous replenishment of energy in the past year, otherwise it would have been exhausted long ago.

What shocked him the most was that the young man in front of him had not changed at all in this year. You know, this energy was extremely huge. According to his expectations, it might be enough for two people to break through to the Fighting Saint level. Unexpectedly, there was no movement at all after it was absorbed into the young man's body.

This was also one of the reasons why he felt a little unsure. After all, according to ordinary people, a peak Dou Zun would have been blown up if he absorbed such a huge amount of energy. But the man in front of him was fine. This made him sigh in his heart. Is this a monster who doesn't follow the ordinary path?

Suddenly, Xiao Xuan looked in the direction of Xiao Yan. At this time, Xiao Yan had already taken the last step and successfully crossed it. It seemed that he had completely completed this last step.

As Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes, he saw the people in front of him. After Xiao Xuan's explanation, he also understood that Xiao Miao was now entering an important stage of breaking through to the Douluo Saint level. His face immediately became a little solemn, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little excited. If the breakthrough was successful, then their Xingyun Pavilion would have three Douluo Saints, and by then their strength would be further improved.

However, since Xiao Yan was already close to the Nine-Star Dou Zun, after absorbing the power of his bloodline and compressing the energy in his body several times, he also reached the peak of the second level of Dou Zun.

"Thank you, ancestor!"

Xiao Yan turned his gaze to the old Xiao Xuan who was standing beside him. He flicked his sleeves, knelt down in front of the latter without hesitation, and said in a deep voice.

Not to mention seniority, even if Xiao Xuan turned himself into this appearance in order to preserve the last bloodline of the Xiao clan, and waited alone for countless years for the sake of justice, he deserves Xiao Yan's kneeling!

"Xiao Yan, now deep in your heart, the seed of a new bloodline has been planted. You must protect it well and never let anything go wrong with it. It will be the key to whether you can reach the Emperor Realm."

Xiao Xuan said with a serious expression:

"If you can reach the Emperor Realm, the abandoned bloodlines in the bodies of those members of the Xiao Clan will have vitality again, and the bloodline power will be stronger than before!"

"This is the only real hope to revive the Xiao clan!"

Xiao Yan nodded silently and gently touched his chest with his hand. Faintly, he could feel the strong beating of his heart. Every beat seemed to cause the fighting spirit in his body to fluctuate.

"Also, you have to be careful with the Soul Clan. I've dealt with them a lot. This race is quite mysterious and strange. Even when the Xiao Clan was at its peak, it could only keep up with them. Among the eight ancient clans, the Xiao Clan had a period of prosperity. At that time, among the eight clans, the Xiao Clan was the strongest, the Ancient Clan was second, but the Soul Clan was the most strange."

"According to my guess, the Soul Clan is probably stronger than the Ancient Clan."

Xiao Xuan's face was solemn. When the Xiao Clan fought against the Soul Clan, they won over a lot of helpers, but they never got much benefit. This was enough to show how powerful the Soul Clan was. What's more, the Soul Clan had a long history, but their bloodline seemed to have never dried up. This had always been a puzzle in Xiao Xuan's mind, but he could never get the real answer.

Hearing this, even Gu Xun'er on the side turned her gaze. It would be best to know more about the strength of the Soul Clan, but her own strength was her greatest confidence. Now that she had the inheritance of the Ancient Emperor, she also had what was necessary to break through to the Dou Emperor. She would definitely be able to break through to the Dou Emperor in the future, and by then, a member of the Soul Clan would be nothing.

"The Ancient Clan is indeed the most stable of the eight clans, but the Soul Clan is too mysterious. There are probably only a handful of people in this world who truly understand them."

Xiao Xuan sighed, and seeing Xiao Yan and the others frowning, he waved his hand and said:

"Before you reach the level of Dou Sheng, be careful. You have the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade in your hand, and the Soul Clan will definitely come looking for you."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's face became solemn. The Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade was given to them by Xiao Zhan for safekeeping when he and Xiao Miao returned to the Xiao family last time. After many twists and turns, it was finally given to Xiao Yan.

"It has been two years since you entered the Heavenly Tomb. In nearly a year, you will be teleported out. During this year, practice more and adapt to these surging powers."

Xiao Xuan patted Xiao Yan's shoulder, then clenched his palm, and a scroll with various fire patterns painted on it appeared in his hand.

"This is the complete version of the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire, and it also contains the last step. If you can cultivate it successfully, you will be able to successfully cultivate the clan pattern. Combined with the power of blood, you will be able to exert the power of the clan pattern to the extreme."

After hearing what Xiao Xuan said, Xiao Yan's gaze instantly fixed on the scroll. A hint of heat appeared in his eyes. The real and complete version of the Three Profound Changes of Heavenly Fire was finally in his hands.

Xiao Yan took the scroll covered with flame patterns from Xiao Xuan with a fiery look in his eyes. He hesitated for a moment and suddenly said:

"Ancestor, since the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire were created by you, then you should have possessed a strange fire back then, right?"

Hearing this, Xiao Xuan also smiled and nodded, sighing:

"Well, I also had three kinds of strange fire back then, but unfortunately, in that last battle, all three kinds of strange fire were completely detonated by me."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's eyelids could not help but twitch, and there was an unconcealable shock in his heart. With Xiao Xuan's strength back then, he was actually forced to detonate three kinds of strange fire. One could imagine how dangerous that situation was. However, what made Xiao Yan a little confused was that Xiao Xuan should not have a technique like the Burning Decree, so how could he control the three kinds of strange fire?

“Haha, the technique you practice is indeed very powerful. Although it is not the most advanced technique I have ever seen, its growth potential is quite terrifying. Relying on swallowing strange fire to gain strength is undoubtedly walking on the edge of a knife. This kind of technique is dangerous and overbearing.” As if knowing what Xiao Yan was thinking, Xiao Xuan also smiled and said, “The three kinds of strange fire I controlled back then were completely controlled by my own strength. I did not swallow and refine them. For people who have reached that stage, even strange fire is enough to suppress it by force.”

Xiao Yan nodded slightly. No wonder. It turned out that Xiao Xuan used the most direct and brutal method to control the three kinds of strange fire. With his strength back then, it should not be impossible for him to suppress the three kinds of strange fire.

"The technique you practiced may be the most suitable for the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire. After swallowing and refining, these strange fires have been used to perfection in your hands, and there is no resistance at all. Even I couldn't do this completely back then." Xiao Xuan smiled and said, "Since the complete version of the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire is already in your hands, you should observe it carefully and try your best to successfully practice the clan pattern before leaving the Heavenly Tomb."

"Ah."

Xiao Yan nodded in agreement and suddenly looked at Gu Xun'er beside him. For some reason, he always felt that the woman seemed to be suppressing something at this moment. He wondered if it was his illusion.

After explaining everything, Xiao Xuan once again focused his attention on Xiao Miao. He had secretly prepared a backup plan just now. As long as Gu Xun'er made the slightest move, he would immediately take action to stop her.

Suddenly, ripples began to appear in the pool. Seeing this, the three people present stared closely, not wanting to miss any opportunity.

At this moment, they all felt that there seemed to be some strange fluctuations on the boy's body that were constantly flashing. It was very wonderful, and seemed to attract people's spirits and be sucked into it, making it difficult to extricate themselves.

"This is."

Looking at the fluctuations coming from the field, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but murmur softly, with a hint of uncertain joy flashing on his face. This scene did look like a breakthrough, but it didn't seem to be entirely the case. However, it was certain that some strange changes must have occurred.

At the same time, he kept introducing energy from the surroundings in his hands. In order to fully replenish the lost energy within this year, almost all the energy bodies that were previously hidden as spare were killed and used by him. Being able to become the strongest man at the top of the continent, he naturally would not be a merciful person.

Chapter 253 Breakthrough, Gu Xun'er's Giving Up

The unusual movement in the field at this time also attracted the attention of the three people. They all stared at the figure in front of them, wanting to see what changes would occur next.

In the blink of an eye, the originally rich energy in the field instantly formed an energy tide, which continued to gather on the figure in the blood pool, and finally disappeared. From the perspective of the three people, this was all they could see.

At this moment, Xiao Miao was fighting the final battle. Although he was motionless in the eyes of the three people, drastic changes had taken place in his dantian. The violent energy continued to spread in the dantian in his body and then compressed again, repeating this process repeatedly, and finally formed solid ice fighting spirit.

Even at this moment, the surroundings began to emanate an extreme cold air. The blood pool, which had become clear due to the complete absorption of energy, began to condense into ice, and it seemed that even the surrounding space was about to freeze. Feeling this scene, Xiao Xuan's gaze couldn't help but pause. Even he felt a thrilling sense of this cold air. Even for him now, it would be very troublesome. However, this was just the effect of the ice attribute attached to the fighting spirit. When he reaches the peak of the Fighting Saint in the future, I am afraid that no one can stop him on this Fighting Qi continent where no Fighting Emperor can appear.
