Inside the Boundary Tower!
In a special location, a fiery red shadow darted up and down, continuously evading so scorching breaths. Upon closer inspection, those scorching breaths were actually clusters of flas in different colors.
If Yun Xiao were here, perhaps he would recognize that the fiery red shadow was none other than the Fire Cloud Rat Chi Yan, who had followed him for a long ti. It seed to be undergoing its own unique trial within the Boundary Tower.
The Boundary Tower serves as the essential passage from Hidden Dragon Continent to Tenglong Continent, and this spatial channel tower isn’t only aid at humans; it works for Vein Demons as well.
Of course, many Vein Demons from Hidden Dragon Continent do not know of this special place, so generally, only demon pets like Chi Yan, who follow their masters, can partake in the trials of the Boundary Tower.
And even if both master and demon pet enter the Boundary Tower, they cannot be in the sa place, and whether they can et again after heading to Tenglong Continent is still another matter.
Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, those differently colored flas abruptly accelerated, and Chi Yan, unable to avoid in ti, was hit consecutively, causing its breath to beco significantly more ferocious in an instant.
However, curiously, the Chi Yan struck by these flas didn’t sustain severe injuries as one might imagine. Instead, it entered a very special state by utilizing the power of these flas.
It was as though Chi Yan was using the special abilities of the Fire Cloud Rat to absorb the fire attribute energy within these flas. Of course, if it couldn’t endure this power, the final outco would be extrely tragic.
...
Also inside the Boundary Tower!
Mo Qing, the talented young girl from Jade Pot Sect, encountered a situation very similar to that of Chi Yan. After all, she possessed the Pure Yang Immortal Body, which is rarely seen even in Nine-layered Dragon Cloud; her fire attribute power might not be much less than that of Chi Yan.
However, Mo Qing only had mid-stage Spirit Vein Realm ridian Qi Cultivation, and in this regard, she was still sowhat inferior to Chi Yan, who had already reached the peak of the Sixth Rank Advanced Vein Demon.
But the magical nature of the Boundary Tower does not an that those with higher ridian Qi Cultivation will definitely get through, nor that those with lower cultivation will surely fail. Take, for example, Pan Rulong, a genius from Chongyun Empire, who had reached the late-stage Spirit Vein Realm, yet hadn’t passed the Boundary Tower even after a full ten years.
Therefore, the flas that hit Mo Qing, though powerful, appeared not as intense as those encountered by Chi Yan. Whether she could endure depended on her own fortune.
...
The situation for Ling Wan was very different from that of the fire attribute beings. At the mont, he had sohow transford into a round atball, a body of Mixed Elent One Qi.
It’s worth ntioning that a special aura was erging from underneath Ling Wan’s body. This aura, upon invading his body, seed to minutely bolster his Mixed Elent Qi.
The Mixed Elent One Qi Body is also a rare abnormal physique even in Nine-layered Dragon Cloud. If it were not for eting Yun Xiao, perhaps Ling Wan would have been considered a monster his entire life, and it’s questionable if he could have survived to the present.
But once Yun Xiao opened his governor and conception vessels, Ling Wan’s cultivation talent surpassed most of the geniuses of Hidden Dragon Continent. Perhaps this trip to the Boundary Tower might also be a turning point for him.
...
At the sa ti, Liu Hanyi and Xu Hongzhuang, who entered the Boundary Tower following Yun Xiao, also faced their own trials. The tests were extrely challenging, and a single misstep might result in a demise.
However, these two were also among the top eight, even top four geniuses of the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, each with their own thods, especially Liu Hanyi, whose Immortal Poison Body made her trials even more bizarre and miraculous.
It must be said that the Boundary Tower is truly a mystical place. Whether it’s Yun Xiao, Mo Qing, or even Ling Wan and Chi Yan, the trials they experienced were all different, yet without exception, were perfectly matched to their own attributes.
Let’s not ntion if they could not withstand, but once they did, their ridian Qi Cultivation is likely to have a significant improvent, stepping onto Tenglong Continent with a brand new appearance.
...
Yun Xiao was completely unaware of the conditions his friends were facing, because at the very mont, he had arrived at a pivotal mont of refining the Bloodline Power left by Yun Changtian.
Without the Golden Snake Worm competing for food, this ti Yun Xiao alone refined the bloodline power completely. At this mont, he faintly understood why the Golden Snake Worm did not co to snatch it.
Yun Xiao believed, given its nature, it definitely wasn’t a sudden bout of conscience; there must be so other reason, likely a fundantal one related to the bloodline.
As ti passed, the aura emanating from Yun Xiao grew stronger. The energy in the air of the loft sward towards various parts of his body and finally entered his ridians, serving as nourishnt for his strength enhancent.
Crack!
Suddenly, an invisible sound transmitted into Yun Xiao’s mind. He knew he had achieved a breakthrough, and from being originally at the peak of the Spirit Vein Realm, he astonishingly reached the early stage of the Earth Rank Qi Seeking Realm.
In fact, between the peak of the Spirit Vein Realm and the early stage of the Qi Seeking Realm, there was a level known as Half-step Earth Rank. For instance, previous figures like Xuan Haoran, the King of Xuanyue Country, and Yu Shu, the Sect Master of the Jade Pot Sect, and even the kings of several major empires, were at this level.
The so-called Half-step Earth Rank allowed one to wield a touch of Earth Power under special circumstances, though the control was unstable, hence the term Half-step Earth Rank.
For cultivators of both the Hidden Dragon Continent and Tenglong Continent, crossing the Half-step Earth Rank was an essential gap that must be bridged. It was through continuous familiarity and exploration of Earth Power at this level that one could truly reach the early stage of the Earth Rank Qi Seeking Realm.
But for Yun Xiao, none of these were problems because he was the reincarnation of the Long Xiao Battle God. The biggest difference from ordinary cultivators was that under the summit of Holy Rank Third Realm, he had no bottlenecks in breaking through realms.
The Earth Power, which others needed ti to explore and study, was effortless for Yun Xiao; what he previously lacked was just the accumulation of ridian Qi.
Once his ridian Qi reached a level sufficient for breakthrough, Yun Xiao did not need to sense that touch of Earth Power. He had experience in this kind of realization; everything was as simple as water flowing into a channel.
Hence at this mont, bolstered by the impact of the bloodline power, Yun Xiao had already achieved a breakthrough to one of the Earth Rank Third Realms, the Qi Seeking Realm, even before setting foot on Tenglong Continent, which was a pleasant surprise for him.
Yun Xiao originally thought that due to the sparse spiritual qi and insufficient Heaven and Earth Energy on the Hidden Dragon Continent, it wouldn’t be possible for him to break through to the Earth Rank Third Realm, as his practiced Cultivation Technique was the formidable Ancient Dragon Taming Technique.
Unlike Xuan Haoran, Xie Jiupeng, and others who could break through to the Earth Rank Third Realm due to special reasons on the Hidden Dragon Continent, Yun Xiao knew well he couldn’t be compared to ordinary cultivators.
This was also why Yun Xiao could fight beyond his own ranks. If not for his extrely consolidated ridian Qi, how could he at the peak of the Spirit Vein Realm manage to defeat true early stage Qi Seeking Realm cultivators like Xie Jiupeng and Nie Wencang?
What Yun Xiao didn’t anticipate was encountering such an unexpected joy within this Boundary Tower. Now, upon entering Tenglong Continent, he already had so ans for self-protection.
At least within the Qi Seeking Realm rank, it would be sowhat difficult for other cultivators to threaten his life. Moreover, at full power, early-stage Qi Seeking Realm cultivators naturally couldn’t contend with him. Perhaps even mid-stage Qi Seeking Realm cultivators could be challenged?
Moreover, Yun Xiao knew that this enhancent wasn’t due to external forces; it was the Bloodline Power left to him by Yun Changtian. The connection was tight, and it could even be said that it was originally his own.
After reincarnation, Yun Xiao had always adhered to not relying on Elixirs or other genius treasures to enhance his strength, especially for major rank advancents. Once external forces were used, his ridian Qi would beco unstable, which would beco a shackle when attempting to break through higher realms in the future.
"However, elevating the Power of Soul to the Earth Rank level isn’t going to be easy!"
Standing up, Yun Xiao, feeling his Soul Power still lingering at the Advanced Spiritual Rank, felt sowhat dissatisfied. If other cultivators heard this thought, wouldn’t he be beaten to death?
To know, only a little over a year had passed since the end of the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, and during this year, Yun Xiao had incredibly promoted his ridian Qi Cultivation from Mid Stage of ridian Union Realm to the early stage of Earth Rank Third Realm Qi Seeking Realm.
This wasn’t just a distance of six minor stages, but also crossed two major ranks. Even if the cultivators of Hidden Dragon Continent had already witnessed Yun Xiao’s formidable prowess and defiance of the heavens, learning this news would probably blow their minds?
But these things are now impossible for the cultivators of the Hidden Dragon Continent to know. Instead, with the arrival of such a monstrous genius, Tenglong Continent of the Middle Three Realms is bound to beco extraordinarily exciting.
Collecting those unusual thoughts in his heart, Yun Xiao finally looked around the second floor of the loft. A familiar figure flashed across his mind, and then he strode out.
In fact, Yun Xiao, having passed through the Nightmare Hall earlier, had essentially completed all his tests in the Boundary Tower. It was just because of this loft left by Yun Changtian that he stayed here a bit longer.
Therefore, as soon as he stepped out of the loft, Yun Xiao felt a special energy instantly enfold him. Then that long-absent pain of spatial pulling ca again, and he knew he was about to be transported to a higher plane.
"Tenglong Continent, I, Yun Xiao, am coming!"
(The first volu "Hidden Dragon Erges" officially ends, the second volu "Cloud Dance Soaring Dragon" continues excitingly!)
