"Haha, that guy totally deserved to die."
Seeing Yan Changqing die just like that, Yang Xiao was a little surprised.
He had originally thought it would be another prolonged battle.
After all, Yan Changqing's strength was quite formidable.
If not for the geographical advantage, Yang Xiao would have been no match for him in a direct confrontation.
So, even though he had killed him, Yang Xiao didn't feel proud.
Instead, it allowed him to see himself more clearly.
'With my current overall strength, without the advantage of the terrain, I'm at best equivalent to a Tier Two Martial Saint. I might not even be a match for so Tier Two Martial Saints who have comprehended strange True Intents.'
Yang Xiao thought to himself.
He knew he still had many shortcomings.
If he were an ordinary youth, he would definitely be jumping for joy after achieving so much at his age.
This was, after all, the highest level in the Celestial Cloud Region.
A Martial Saint.
The Purple Sun Sect hadn't produced a single one in its thousand-year history.
And Yang Xiao had now reached that level.
How could it not make people envious?
But Yang Xiao was no ordinary youth.
He was the reincarnation of a Supre Divine King.
Never mind this so-called Martial Saint level.
Even if he were to reach the Small Divine Ability Realm, the Great Divine Power Realm, or even beco a True God right now,
Yang Xiao wouldn't think it was anything special.
In fact, he would consider it too slow.
After all, he was soone who had sworn to slay Saints.
These Saints,
were not Pseudo-Saints like Yan Changqing, but true Saints.
Beings like Celestial Emperor Yuan Shi and the Nine Yang Supre.
Such supre and unparalleled existences.
With such aspirations, how could Yang Xiao be satisfied with his current achievents?
'Since there's still so ti before the Nine Sects Grand Competition, I'll enter seclusion here. Once I master the Basic Chapter of the Nine Yang Celestial Skill, I'll consu that Ancient Spirit dicine in one go and break through to the Yellow Fla Realm.'
At this thought, Yang Xiao looked toward the Ancient Spirit dicine ahead.
His eyes were filled with delight.
Since he had decided to cultivate in seclusion, it was best to secure the Ancient Spirit dicine first. That way, he could handle any unexpected changes that might occur.
Yang Xiao didn't believe that in its tens of thousands of years of history, the dicine King Valley's only defenses were the two Martial Saints who had died at his hands.
Just looking at the restriction before him, it was clearly not sothing an ordinary Martial Saint could have placed.
There was no ti to lose.
Yang Xiao once again walked toward the lotus-shaped Ancient Spirit dicine.
There was no path before him, only magma.
But Yang Xiao stepped onto the surface of the magma.
There was no sign of him sinking.
In just a few steps, he was less than ten ters from the Ancient Spirit dicine.
And this ti, Yang Xiao could feel the lotus-shaped Ancient Spirit dicine trembling even more violently.
Amidst the turmoil, even the small lake of magma where it was rooted began to boil.
It seed to understand his intentions.
Moreover, as he drew closer, the scorching heat from all around grew more intense.
The temperature continued to rise.
The bubbles in the lake of magma churned constantly.
After a few more steps, the air before him felt as if it were truly on fire.
And it wasn't an ordinary fla.
It was nearly comparable to the lowest level of Spirit Fire.
Even a Tier Three Martial Saint would not be able to withstand such a temperature.
But to Yang Xiao, it was completely useless.
His Spiritual Power had reached the Observing Micro High Level.
The power of his Fire Control Skill had soared.
Temperatures at the level of a Low-Tier Spirit Fire definitely couldn't harm him.
Only a higher level could possibly cause him a bit of trouble.
However, it would only be trouble.
Temperature alone, no matter how high, could not possibly injure Yang Xiao.
Only an active attack, one at the Middle-Tier Spirit Fire level, could break free from the control of Yang Xiao's Fire Control Skill.
'Huh? There's another restriction?'
Suddenly, Yang Xiao's expression changed.
He was only three steps away from the lotus-shaped Ancient Spirit dicine.
But he encountered an obstacle.
It was a restriction.
Moreover, it was a more sophisticated and powerful restriction than the previous two.
'This restriction is completely different from the one at the cave entrance and the other one before. Although they share the sa origin, this one's power is much greater. As expected, this dicine King Valley is not so simple.'
Yang Xiao grew vigilant.
At the sa ti, his urgency to obtain this Spirit dicine intensified.
'Who knows if the one who placed this restriction is still alive? Will they appear at any mont?'
So, he raised his hand and threw a punch.
Fla Emperor Divine Fist.
He struck directly at its weak point.
Although this restriction was stronger than the previous two, it was still nothing to Yang Xiao. The one he was wary of was the person who set up the restriction, not the restriction itself.
Therefore, he shattered the restriction with a single punch.
CRACK!
A brilliant light began to flow.
The shattered restriction actually coalesced, gathering into a stream.
It transford into a figure of light.
It was an extraordinarily handso man with a full head of silver hair.
His eyes held the sa ancient wisdom, but they also contained a sharp edge.
His aura was even more profound than Yan Changqing's.
"Junior, you dare to covet the dicine King Valley's dicine King? Stop at once, lest you bring disaster upon yourself and your family!"
The man threatened him with cold arrogance.
But Yang Xiao paid him no mind.
He had already seen that this figure of light was rely a remnant of will, possessing no power whatsoever.
He walked right past it.
Raising his hand, he reached for the Ancient Spirit dicine.
The silver-haired man naturally saw him move.
His face turned ugly.
But he wasn't overly worried.
Because if this Ancient Spirit dicine were that easy to take, he would have done so long ago. Why would he have left it until now? And why would he have needed to set up a restriction?
But what happened next left him stunned.
Because when Yang Xiao touched the Ancient Spirit dicine, the green lotus resisted with all its might, emitting a terrifying fla from its entire body.
The fla was azure.
Its temperature was extrely high.
It had already surpassed the limits of Mortal Fire.
In the past, the silver-haired man had been injured by the power of this azure fla unleashed by the green lotus.
But now...
Yang Xiao t no resistance. It was as if this fla, capable of incinerating even a Tier Four Martial Saint, was a re decoration. He easily reached through it.
He grabbed the lotus-like Ancient Spirit dicine.
With a rough pull, he plucked it up, roots and all.
Then he casually tossed it into his Storage Ring.
"Th-this is impossible! Y-you... how did you do that?"
The silver-haired man was in disbelief.
His true body, however, was accelerating forward.
Soon, he reached the Earth Fla Cave.
And entered.
Yang Xiao, however, just smiled faintly. Instead of answering, he raised a finger and pointed.
Instantly, the figure of light dissipated.
At the sa ti, a silver figure appeared outside the original boundary of the restriction.
It was the sa silver-haired man from the light projection.
But Yang Xiao wasn't afraid in the slightest.
He raised his hand and pointed again.
This ti, however, the silver-haired man let out a sharp cry and threw a punch.
As the punch flew, Yang Xiao felt as if the entire world was shaking. Then, an unparalleled force surged toward him.
Yang Xiao's expression changed, knowing he couldn't take this blow.
He didn't even try to block it.
He just gave a strange smile.
SPLASH.
He actually jumped into the boiling magma.
This left the hastily arrived silver-haired man utterly stunned.
'Has this kid gone mad? Why would he seek his own death...? Or... does he have a way to survive in this magma?'
At this thought, the silver-haired man's expression beca incredibly ugly.
But there was nothing he could do.
No matter how strong he was, he was still a being of flesh and blood.
This was magma.
Magma from deep within the earth, no less.
If he went in, death was certain.
He couldn't pursue even if he wanted to.
"No, that little thief would never seek his own death. Could it be..."
The silver-haired man's expression changed drastically.
He slamd a fist down, splashing magma everywhere, but there was no sign of a body. He knew then that the little thief must have escaped.
"Damned little thief! This Saint will tear you to pieces!"
The silver-haired man gnashed his teeth.
But by this ti, Yang Xiao was long gone.
No matter how much hatred he felt, he could only watch helplessly as the Green Lotus dicine King was taken from him.
It was utterly infuriating!
