'The Nine Nether Evil Qi ahead is getting denser and denser...'
Yang Xiao continued forward.
He focused on the profound state where the True Greater Yang Fire and the Nine Nether Evil Qi both rged and annihilated each other.
Although it grew increasingly difficult,
he gained a deeper understanding of the inherent nature of the True Greater Yang Fire itself.
He learned how to use less True Greater Yang Fire to combat the Nine Nether Evil Qi.
His application of the True Greater Yang Fire and his comprehension of the Greater Yang Treasure Patterns both reached a new level.
He even made significant progress with the Nine Yang Secret Pattern and the Star Secret Pattern.
As for the Fire Elent Secret Pattern, in his first life, Yang Xiao was an Innate Fire God, so he had naturally comprehended it to its deepest level. Thus, there wasn't much room for improvent.
Nor could it be improved upon.
After all, his current level was still a bit too low.
'Huh? Oh no, Nine Nether Evil Pearls are flying this way!'
Just as Yang Xiao was deep in his comprehension, he suddenly saw things like glossy, jet-black water droplets flying over from the distance.
There weren't many of them.
But Yang Xiao...
...retreated in a hurry.
Those were Nine Nether Evil Pearls.
They were ford from condensed Nine Nether Evil Qi.
Although their quality hadn't improved, they were a concentrated essence, and they moved extrely fast.
Yang Xiao judged...
...that his current True Greater Yang Fire was not yet strong enough to contend with them.
He could only dodge.
'It seems this is as far as I can go. The Nine Nether Evil Qi here has already reached the Upper Ninth Grade, which is on par with the True Greater Yang Fire in my body. It's difficult to neutralize. Plus, with these Nine Nether Evil Pearls appearing from ti to ti, I'm afraid it will be dangerous if I get greedy and press on recklessly.'
'Besides, after walking for so long, I can tell that this direction must lead deeper in. If I go in the opposite direction, I might be able to find a way out.'
A thought flashed through Yang Xiao's mind.
He had entered this Nine Nether Evil Qi for two reasons. First, to temper his True Greater Yang Fire.
To test his limits.
Second, to investigate the secrets of this so-called forbidden land.
However, it now seed his abilities were still insufficient.
But it wasn't a complete waste of ti.
At the very least, he now knew the way out.
But just as Yang Xiao lifted his leg to turn around...
...a faint white light suddenly flickered ahead.
Yang Xiao's expression changed instantly.
'Could there really be so kind of treasure hidden in this Nine Nether Evil Qi?'
Yang Xiao's interest was piqued.
He subconsciously walked forward.
After taking a few steps,
he soon saw the area where the white light was flickering, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
'No way... This... how is this possible?'
Yang Xiao was stunned.
He had originally thought he would find so treasure here.
But he never expected...
'It's a woman!'
The woman before him was lying on the ground, her eyes lightly shut, as if she had fallen asleep.
And what surprised Yang Xiao even more...
...was the white light enveloping her body.
'I didn't think much of it before, but now that I'm closer, this white light feels familiar. Could it have been left behind by an old friend?'
Yang Xiao's heart stirred.
He hesitated.
Anyone he would call an old friend...
...was surely a figure from a million years ago.
To see sothing of theirs again after a million years, even if it was just an object, stirred Yang Xiao's mories and caused ripples in his state of mind.
However, he quickly suppressed the emotions in his heart.
'I should get her out of here first. Looking at her, although she has a protective item, she must have been corroded by the Nine Nether Evil Qi. If I'm too late, she might be beyond saving.'
Although the woman before him appeared plain and her aura was faint, she seed to be connected to an old friend.
Naturally, Yang Xiao wouldn't just leave her be.
The True Greater Yang Fire around his body imdiately surged more intensely.
He drove away the surrounding Nine Nether Evil Qi.
'Thankfully, I finished tempering the acupoints in my body and stored up a large amount of True Greater Yang Fire before coming. Otherwise, my fire would have really been exhausted by now.'
Yang Xiao had made his way here,
already consuming almost half of his True Greater Yang Fire.
Now, in order to save her, he was releasing even more.
The pressure on him more than doubled.
Therefore, to avoid any accidents, Yang Xiao stepped forward and grabbed the woman in white. The mont he did,
Yang Xiao felt sothing was wrong.
Waves of a frigid aura were coming from the woman's body.
This aura was ice-cold,
yet it carried a refreshing comfort that seeped into him.
It was like touching a block of ice on a hot sumr day.
'What... what's going on? Could this woman already be dead?'
Yang Xiao froze.
He wanted to investigate,
but then he saw more Nine Nether Evil Pearls flying toward them from the distance.
His heart sank.
Carrying the woman in white, he quickly fled toward an area where the Evil Qi was thinner.
But in his heart,
he was perplexed.
He didn't know what was going on with this woman.
However, this wasn't the right ti for an investigation. The most important thing was to leave this place first.
And so, casting aside his strange thoughts, he ran for an unknown amount of ti. When he finally escaped the Nine Nether Evil Qi, Yang Xiao imdiately set down the woman who had made him feel so strange.
"Strange! This is too strange!"
Yang Xiao looked at the woman in white, who was still unconscious and radiating a cold aura from her entire body.
He was deeply shocked.
But soon, sothing even more shocking happened.
He felt that his own body seed to have undergone so changes.
The changes were subtle,
but they had definitely occurred.
Originally, the four inscribed Secret Patterns—the Star Secret Pattern, the Nine Yang Secret Pattern, the Greater Yang Treasure Pattern, and the Fire Elent Secret Pattern—had been rged into one through Yang Xiao's deductions.
But because they belonged to different systems, their connection wasn't very close.
But now...
'These four Secret Patterns have actually beco perfectly integrated, as if they were a single entity. Even the quality of my True Greater Yang Fire seems to have improved by a sliver. Although it hasn't broken through to the next grade, it's already surpassed the level of Upper Ninth Grade. This is incredible! Could it be because of the aura coming from this woman?'
Yang Xiao was dumbfounded for a mont.
Thinking back, that was the only possibility. The frigid aura from before had indeed been very strange, seemingly extraordinary.
A thought stirred in his mind.
Yang Xiao really wanted to go forward and verify if this woman was the cause of the miraculous changes in his body.
The aura on this woman was truly out of the ordinary.
It seed to be related to an old friend.
Stepping forward, Yang Xiao touched her again.
Instantly, that frigid aura transmitted to him once more.
In that instant,
his eyes lit up.
'It's true! The cold aura from this woman's body really can help the four types of Yang Elent Power in my body fuse into one...'
For a mont, Yang Xiao beca quite excited.
However, he didn't continue to absorb the cold aura. Instead, he began to examine her carefully.
It wasn't that he was interested in the woman herself.
In fact,
although he had been reborn in this life, a lingering shadow remained deep in his heart.
Even after a million years,
that figure hadn't faded in the slightest.
On the contrary, it had only grown clearer.
'Chang Xi... it's been a million years. I wonder if you're still waiting for ...'
'But no matter what, I will! I will definitely go back and find you!'
As he unintentionally thought of the partner from his first life,
Yang Xiao sighed in his heart.
At the sa ti, he sensed another unusual aura on the woman before him.
He raised his hand and made a grasping motion in the air.
Instantly, an object flew out from the woman in white's body.
It was a jet-black Token.
Two large characters were carved on the Token.
These characters originated from Ancient Tis.
They were divine script, born at the beginning of the world.
But Yang Xiao...
...recognized them.
They were the two characters for "Profound Sun."
Profound Sun.
It was the Profound Sun Order!
Yang Xiao's mind...
...seed to fly far away in that instant.
There,
a bald child was chasing after him.
"Senior Brother, wait for ! Pro... Profound Sun... is about to be left behind..."
