"Haha, Brother Xiao Ling's words warmed my heart. Then I won't hide anything. I hope you will be satisfied with these materials. For them, I persuaded the elders in the tribe to prepare better ones."
"If we use these materials to refine a new body for that Medicine Venerable Senior, maybe it will be like what Brother Xiao Ling said, that Medicine Venerable Senior will be able to become a true Dou Sheng directly after his resurrection."
Xun'er nodded slightly, a beautiful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she brushed a strand of hair in front of her forehead behind her ear, and spoke softly.
Xun'er's words made sense. After all, the quality of the Dou Sheng's body and the essence of the ninth-level monster was also different. There was a huge difference between each level of Dou Sheng. In order to get the clan to produce better quality materials, she did spend a lot of time and effort.
In Xun'er's opinion, if Xiao Ling could really have a powerful Dou Sheng and a ninth-grade alchemist as his backing as he said, Xiao Ling's development in Zhongzhou would be smoother and his safety would be better guaranteed.
Even if Xiao Ling revealed his identity as a descendant of the Xiao clan, even if those people in the Soul Palace knew about it, they would not dare to do anything to Xiao Ling easily.
Moreover, even the ancient clan would pay enough attention to such a Dousheng and ninth-grade alchemist. At that time, it might be easier for the clan to get the support of the elders for her and Xiao Ling's affairs.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xun'er gently flipped her palm, and an extremely delicate ring appeared in her palm. Under the moonlight, the ring flickered with a faint light, as if telling the secrets contained inside it.
Afterwards, under Xun'er's control, the ring slowly floated up and finally stopped in front of Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling's eyes were fixed on the ring in front of him. His heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, as if he could feel the priceless treasure contained in the ring.
He knew that the things stored in this ring would, as expected, be the most precious treasures he had ever obtained in the Douqi Continent.
Xiao Ling took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitement. Then, he slowly stretched out his hand and carefully held the ring in his palm.
The moment he touched it, Xiao Ling felt a hint of coolness, as if a stream of clear spring was flowing through his palm, bringing an indescribable sense of comfort.
The ring feels extremely delicate, as if it had been polished countless times, and every part of it reveals exquisite craftsmanship.
This touch made Xiao Ling sure that the quality of this storage ring was extraordinary, definitely much higher than Yao Chen's bone inflammation ring. It was worthy of being a product of the imperial family and must be a top-quality product.
He no longer hesitated, concentrated his mind, and slowly injected his soul perception into the ring.
This ring has not yet been marked with anyone's soul imprint. It is like a blank piece of paper, waiting for the mark of its new owner.
Xiao Ling's soul power easily penetrated the barrier of the ring, as if opening a door to a mysterious space.
When Xiao Ling's soul entered the ring, he immediately felt the vastness of the space. Compared with the high-level ring he had worn before, this space was many times larger.
But Xiao Ling's attention did not linger on the vastness of the space. His attention was soon attracted by the items in the ring.
The space inside the ring was unusually spacious, like a huge secret room, and in the center of this space, two coffins were quietly placed. There were several complex prohibitions engraved on the coffins, which served as both protection and seal, allowing the secrets inside the coffins to be preserved.
Xiao Ling's soul perception carefully approached the two coffins. Although he could not see through the inside of the coffins, he could clearly feel the two majestic auras emanating from the coffins.
The power of this aura was the most shocking force he had ever felt. The Xuankongzi and Tianleizi he had met before were simply vulnerable in comparison. There was no doubt that this was the pressure emanating from the body of the legendary Fighting Saint.
However, there is a difference between the two auras, one of which is more powerful and emits a fiery aura, while the other, although equally powerful, is slightly inferior in comparison.
However, Xiao Ling had never truly come into contact with the aura of a Fighting Saint, so based solely on the aura they exuded, he was unable to accurately judge what level of cultivation the two Fighting Saint bodies had reached during their lifetime.
The ancient clan actually took out two Douluo-level bodies. This move really surprised Xiao Ling, but also filled his heart with joy.
Xiao Ling knew that Xun'er's contribution was indispensable. Without Xun'er's help, it would be impossible for him to reach such a deal with the ancient clan.
I must thank Xun'er very much afterwards. It's so delicious to eat this free meal.
Next to the two coffins, there were several exquisite porcelain bottles. Although these porcelain bottles looked inconspicuous, Xiao Ling's soul perception could clearly sense the powerful energy fluctuations contained in them as soon as he approached them.
He could tell that these porcelain bottles contained several bottles of blood essence from level eight magic beasts, and among the level eight magic beasts, they were definitely the top ones. The energy fluctuations of these blood essences were strong and pure, and each drop contained amazing power.
Among these bottles of blood essence, there is one bottle that is particularly special. The energy fluctuations it emits far exceed those of the other bottles of eighth-level monster blood essence. Although Xiao Ling has never seen it with his own eyes, based on his experience, if not unexpectedly, the contents of this bottle are the extremely precious ninth-level monster blood essence.
However, there seemed to be only one bottle of the essence of this ninth-level monster, and it did not appear in pairs like the Dou Sheng body, which made Xiao Ling feel a little regretful. But even so, being able to obtain such a treasure was enough to make him excited.
On the other side of the ring space, Xiao Ling's eyes were attracted by a spectacular scene. There, countless rare medicinal herbs were piled up like mountains, almost occupying a square of 100 meters. The variety of medicinal herbs and their high quality were enough to make any alchemist excited.
Among these herbs, even the most common ones were enough to be used as the main material for refining eighth-grade elixirs, and there were more than a dozen of them that were top-grade herbs that Xiao Ling had only seen in ancient books and could be used to refine ninth-grade elixirs. His eyes almost popped out, the preciousness of these herbs far exceeded his imagination.
Moreover, most of these herbs were not available to Xiao Ling. He knew that once he acquired these herbs, his stock of herbs would be greatly strengthened as never before. This was not only an increase in quantity, but also a leap in quality.
Deep in the ring space, Xiao Ling's gaze finally fell on an ancient scroll.
His soul perception lightly touched it and immediately discovered the mystery contained in the scroll, which recorded the practice method of "Emperor Seal Art".
Unlike the version Xun'er had given him before, which only contained the first two moves, this scroll contained the last three moves of "The Emperor's Seal": "Sea Seal", "Earth-Covering Seal" and "Ancient Emperor's Seal".
The "Emperor's Seal Technique" is a secret fighting technique of the ancient clan. Even within the ancient clan, only a very small number of elites are qualified to practice the full text. Now, this precious fighting technique has fallen into the hands of Xiao Ling, an outsider. One cannot help but sigh at the strangeness of fate.
Before, Xiao Ling only had the first two moves of the "Emperor Seal Technique", which prevented him from fully unleashing the amazing power of this high-level earth-level fighting skill. Therefore, he rarely used this skill in battle.
But now, the situation is very different. The "Emperor Seal Art" in his hand is complete and contains all five styles, which gives Xiao Ling another means of attack.
Moreover, Xiao Ling was also very curious, comparing the two, the Great Wilderness Prisoner Sky Palm and the Emperor's Seal Technique, which one was more powerful.
……
Xiao Ling's eyes swept over those items one by one. After checking, he withdrew his subtle soul perception and slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing that he had finished his investigation, Xun'er immediately looked at him expectantly and asked softly, "Brother Xiao Ling, what do you think of these things? Are you satisfied?"
Xiao Ling nodded, with a smile on his face: "Very satisfied, these things are really useful to me, Xun'er, thank you so much."
He took a deep breath, as if trying to calm his inner excitement.
When Xun'er saw him like this, her eyes curved into crescents and she smiled and said, "As long as Brother Xiao Ling likes it, I'm glad. In fact, I just helped a little and said a few nice words to the elders. It didn't take much effort."
Xun'er's smile was as bright as the warm sunshine in spring, making people feel comfortable and happy. Seeing Xiao Ling's satisfaction with her help, Xun'er was also very happy. She was really happy to be able to help Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling felt warm at the sight of her happy face. He knew that although Xun'er said it lightly, she must have put a lot of thought into this matter to get so many treasures, even though she was the eldest daughter of the ancient clan.
Xiao Ling didn't say too many words of gratitude. After all, given the relationship between them, it would seem a bit awkward to say so. But he knew in his heart that he would always remember this friendship.
"Xun'er, by the way, can you tell me the origins of those two Fighting Saint bodies?" Xiao Ling asked curiously while thinking about the two Fighting Saint bodies in the ring.
"After all, this is my first time coming into contact with something related to Dou Sheng, and I really can't tell the difference."
"Brother Xiao Ling, are you talking about the two bodies of the Dou Sheng? I do know something about them, and they have some connection with Brother Xiao Ling's Xiao Clan."
When Xun'er heard Xiao Ling's question, she responded with a very mysterious look on her face.
"Hmm? Is it related to the Xiao clan?" Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of disbelief in his tone. "Xun'er, you are not trying to tell me that these two bodies are really the ancestors of my Xiao clan?"
He felt a little uneasy. If it was really as he guessed, then he would be extremely embarrassed.
However, even if it is really the body of the Xiao clan's ancestor, it is impossible for Xiao Ling to give it up. In that case, Xiao Ling can only be generous and filial.
"Haha, Brother Xiao Ling, what are you thinking? These two bodies of Dou Sheng are not the ancestors of your Xiao clan."
Xun'er was amused by Xiao Ling's sudden guess. She covered her mouth, her eyes curved into crescents, and explained softly,
"These are the remains of two Soul Clan Doushengs who were defeated by the Xiao Clan and our ancient clan's predecessors when they joined forces to fight against the Soul Clan a long time ago."
"Haha, so that's how it is. I feel relieved now. If it was an ancestor of our Xiao clan, I would be a little embarrassed to use it. But since it's a guy from the Soul clan, I have no psychological burden to use it."
After hearing this, Xiao Ling breathed a sigh of relief, touched his nose awkwardly, and said with a smile, it seems that he had really thought too much before.
"The elders of the clan have already investigated these two Dou Sheng bodies. One is a Dou Sheng three-star primary level, and the other is a Dou Sheng two-star intermediate level. They should be able to meet the needs you mentioned before."
As Xun'er spoke, she introduced to Xiao Ling in detail the strength of the two bodies when they were alive.
"Indeed, materials of this quality have far exceeded my previous expectations." Xiao Ling grinned, with a hint of regret in his tone, "If Yao Lao could be here now and heard that these materials could be used to help him revive, he would definitely be very happy."
Xiao Ling's thoughts had begun to drift away, and he couldn't help but imagine Yao Chen's reaction after he learned about the resurrection materials he had prepared for him. Imagining Yao Chen's expression of surprise and joy, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Brother Xiao Ling, don't be dazzled by these things. You have to work harder. If you can break through to Dou Sheng before you are fifty, my father said he would give you something special."
Xun'er looked at Xiao Ling's absent-minded look and couldn't help but remind him softly.
"My father-in-law wants to give me something? Really? Xun'er, do you know what it is?"
When Xiao Ling heard this, he immediately came back to his senses from his thoughts, his eyes lit up, and he stared at Xun'er eagerly and asked.
Although Xun'er never made it clear what her father's identity was in the Ancient Clan, Xiao Ling knew it very well. Xun'er's father, Gu Yuan, was the current patriarch of the Ancient Clan, a nine-star peak Dou Sheng who stood at the top of the Dou Qi Continent. What he brought out must be extraordinary.
Moreover, since Gu Yuan had already said that he wanted to give him something, it meant that he must have noticed him a long time ago. This made Xiao Ling wonder if Gu Yuan had already tacitly agreed to be his future son-in-law.
As for the requirement of reaching Dou Sheng before the age of fifty, Xiao Ling didn't take it seriously at all. Becoming Dou Sheng at the age of fifty? He was very confident that if he really reached the age of fifty, he would have broken through to Dou Di and ascended to the wider world.
"What father-in-law? Don't talk nonsense. It's still too early!" Xun'er couldn't help but blush when she heard Xiao Ling call her father like that. She patted Xiao Ling's shoulder gently and scolded him half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Then, Xun'er's tone became serious: "Actually, my father didn't allow me to tell you this, but I still couldn't help but tell you. This is all I can reveal, but you can rest assured, Brother Xiao Ling, the value of those things is definitely extraordinary, much more precious than what I gave you today."
"So, Brother Xiao Ling, you have to work harder in the future and strive to meet my father's standards." Xun'er encouraged softly, her eyes full of anticipation.
Thousands of years ago, Xiao Xuan gathered all the blood power of the Xiao clan and tried to break through to the Dou Di realm, but unfortunately failed and was ambushed by the Soul clan, which eventually led to the Xiao clan being liquidated by the Soul clan.
During that turbulent period, the relationship between the Gu clan and the Xiao clan was the closest, so all the resources left by the Xiao clan fell into the hands of the Gu clan.
The Ancient Clan has become the most powerful force among the eight ancient clans, and the resources left by the Xiao Clan played a significant role in this. To this day, many people in the Ancient Clan still practice the Xiao Clan's skills and fighting techniques.
Gu Yuan’s plan is that if Xiao Ling really has the potential to revive the Xiao clan’s former glory, then he will naturally return these resources to Xiao Ling, a descendant of the Xiao clan, and will personally help him.
After all, he and Xiao Xuan were close friends back then, and Xiao Ling was the sweetheart of his precious daughter, so it was only natural for him to take care of her.
Chapter 350 Ancient Qingyang Ancient Demon
At that time, Gu Yuan, as the patriarch of the ancient clan, had heavy responsibilities and could not act rashly. He was worried that it would implicate the entire ancient clan, so he could not make up his mind to help Xiao Xuan.
But the situation is different now. Since Xiao Ling and his daughter are in love with each other, he naturally has sufficient reasons to help.
If Xiao Ling does not have that ability, then becoming the son-in-law of the ancient clan is also a good choice. After joining the ancient clan, Xiao Ling will also be trained with emphasis, and his future achievements will also be limitless.
Whether one can break through to the Douluo Saint level before the age of fifty is the standard that Gu Yuan uses to measure Xiao Ling.
Xun'er knew her father's plan very well, but she also knew that this matter was of great importance and she couldn't tell Xiao Ling directly so as not to bring him unnecessary pressure.
Therefore, she only mentioned this matter lightly without revealing any specific details. She believed that as long as Xiao Ling knew there was such a goal, it would be enough to motivate him to keep moving forward.
"Don't worry, Xun'er, it won't take that long. I will definitely meet your father's expectations." Xiao Ling gently rubbed Xun'er's head with a confident smile on his face and a firm tone in his voice.
"Yeah, I always believed that Brother Xiao Ling could do it." Xun'er felt the tenderness coming from above her head, and her heart was filled with peace. She snuggled into Xiao Ling's arms, enjoying the warmth and support.
Xiao Ling also took the opportunity to hug Xun'er tightly in his arms, and the two of them hugged each other quietly for a while.
The air around seemed to become warm, and time seemed to stand still at this moment. Only two hearts were communicating quietly, and each other's beliefs and affections were transmitted silently.
"It seems that the Lantern Festival has ended and the tourists have started to disperse." Xun'er leaned on Xiao Ling's shoulder and said softly, her eyes looking into the distance at the gradually thinning crowd.
Looking down from where they were, the bustling crowds on the streets of Xinlian City had begun to slowly disperse, the lights in some shops were gradually going out, and the street vendors were also starting to close their stalls one after another.
"In that case, let's not stay here and find a place to have a good rest." Xiao Ling nodded and suggested.
"The people in the tribe have already prepared a place for us to stay in Xinlian City. Brother Xiao Ling, let's go there to rest." Xun'er said, with a hint of warmth and anticipation in her voice.
"Since Xun'er has made all the arrangements, let's go there. I haven't had a good rest for a while, and I've been busy all day today. I do feel a little tired." Xiao Ling said with a relaxed smile in his tone.
The two continued to chat there happily for a while, enjoying each other's company and the quiet night. Then, Xun'er took Xiao Ling and walked hand in hand to their temporary residence in Xinlian City.
