"Boom~"The sound of space vibration was endless, as if the world was created. Brilliant flames rose in the world inside the body. The Nine Mysterious Golden Thunder flickered and intertwined with the flames, swallowing and spitting out the vast energy that poured into the body.
Yao Yan slowly opened his eyes, with a faint chaotic aura in his eyes, as if endless great power was manifested in them. He looked at the sea of energy around him that had not decreased much, and knew in his heart that he could not quickly and completely refine and absorb it, and there were also Void Devouring Flame and the Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan watching him on one side.
His heart moved slightly, and suddenly the Lihuo Array that covered the world and was arranged by nineteen kinds of strange fire spirits began to tremble, as if being pulled by something, forcibly refining the world and began to shrink gradually, like a deflated balloon, and sank into Yao Yan's body.
"Ling'er, I leave it to you." Yao Yan communicated with Ling'er in his body and directly sealed the Lihuo Array into Ling'er's body, allowing Ling'er to refine the energy on his behalf.
"Okay, brother~" The clear voice was as gentle and sweet as ever, without any of the brutality of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire and the Void Devouring Flame.
Under Yao Yan's gaze, Ling'er nodded seriously with a pair of big furry ears drooping down. Then she raised her chubby little hands, controlled the compressed Lihuo Array in front of her body, and began to refine the terrifying energy in it on behalf of Yao Yan, feeding it back to Yao Yan's whole body.
She and Yao Yan's destiny are connected, almost one, so naturally there is no such awkward situation as that between the Pure Lotus Demon Fire and the Pure Lotus Demon Saint.
“Once all of it is refined, it shouldn’t be a problem to enter the middle or even late stage of Nine-Star Fighting Saint!” Yao Yan’s eyes gradually regained their calmness, the chaotic energy converged, and even the violent fighting energy around him quickly disappeared. Then he looked to the side at the Void Devouring Flame that controlled the entire medicine world.
“With your talent, if you can refine and absorb the remaining soul of the Medicine Emperor and the energy contained in it, you should be able to step into the level of Nine-Star Fighting Saint.” Void Swallowing Flame looked at Yao Yan who was sealing the energy into his body. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, which were surrounded by black flames. He frowned slightly and reminded him.
“After all, that remnant soul is the remnant of the Medicine Emperor. It is not an easy task to refine it perfectly... Seal it in the body for the time being. It will not be too late to refine it after everything is settled.” Yao Yan explained softly.
Xuwu Tunyan nodded calmly and stopped asking about Yaoyan's affairs, but privately sensed the mark of the Emperor's Fire in Yaoyan's body... After realizing that it was intact, he continued to focus his mind on the medicine world.
Although the population of the Medicine Realm is not as large as that of the Spirit Clan, its quality is higher. There are many people whose soul power has entered the spiritual realm. Many of them are targeted by the Soul Clan, who want to use them for their own purposes. They cannot be slaughtered all at once like the Spirit Clan and the Stone Clan.
After all, the elders of the Soul Clan are not like Emperor Hun Tian, who only cares about the title of Dou Di and is willing to sacrifice everything for it, even the entire clan.
Yao Yan watched all this calmly until Hun Yan approached with a beautiful girl. He then looked over in surprise and bowed to Hun Yan politely: "Greetings, Elder!"
"There's no need for that. With your strength, it's time for me to salute you. My Soul Clan has always spoken with strength. I am extremely pleased that you have achieved such success!" Hun Yan has a very good impression of Yao Yan. After all, there is no elder who doesn't like a polite and talented younger generation, especially when he sees that the other party has achieved something.
"Elder, you are joking. How dare Hunyan do this!" Yaoyan would naturally not be so arrogant and said softly.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. You have made a great contribution by destroying the Medicine Clan this time. I will leave this girl to you. She has a special physique and her soul power can help people practice cultivation. If you think she can be useful, you can spare her life and take her as your slave. If you think she is useless to you, you can just swallow her and absorb her." Hun Yan nodded slightly, then looked at the Medicine Spirit beside him and explained his purpose.
“Greetings, Young Clan Leader!” Yao Ling seemed to be worried that Yao Yan would refuse, so he saluted awkwardly, and then continued, “Young Clan Leader, please take me in. If you are worried, I can let go of my soul and let you leave a soul mark… I have a very special physique, and my soul power can help people’s souls absorb spiritual energy. Even if you step into the Emperor Realm, it can still play a role. Moreover, I know the recipes for dozens of ninth-grade elixirs and Emperor Elixirs!”
Her clear eyes were extremely tender, and her pale face revealed a bit of pity. She looked at Yao Yan pleadingly, as if she was afraid that Yao Yan would refuse, because once Yao Yan refused, she would inevitably become a plaything or even a tool of others, and would not even have a chance to struggle.
As for Yao Yan, he is the young patriarch of the Soul Clan after all, and is gifted with extraordinary talents. Becoming his maid means there is at least some hope for the future.
"Human-shaped pill formula~ No wonder that old guy Yao Wanhuo tried every means to keep you, hehe." Hun Yan laughed when he heard that, and his eyes changed a little when he looked at Yao Ling. Compared with a stunning young girl with a slightly special physique, the ninth-grade pill formula and the emperor-grade pill formula are obviously more valuable.
He even suspected that Yao Ling was the only one who knew the recipes of these pills from the Medicine Clan. These were also the only hope of survival left by the Medicine Clan for Yao Ling to protect himself.
"Let go of your soul." Upon hearing this, Yao Yan's attitude towards Yao Ling naturally changed a little. After pondering for a moment, he said directly. At the same time, he raised his hand and condensed a soul mark containing evil energy, which hit Yao Ling's soul.
Yao Ling heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and released her soul without any hesitation, allowing Yao Yan's soul mark to be imprinted on her soul. Suddenly, a stabbing pain and heart-wrenching feeling swept through her body, and the deep-seated resentment in her heart was crushed in an instant.
Evil spirits have a very strong corrosive power on all living beings in the world, especially Yao Ling's behavior of letting go of his soul. Not to mention life and death, even thoughts are controlled by Yao Yan.
How could he refuse the ninth-grade and imperial-grade pill recipes that were delivered to his doorstep?
"Then I'll leave her to you~" Hun Yan smiled faintly, and then reminded: "But in the near future, don't let her appear in the eyes of outsiders to avoid causing unnecessary trouble."
"Yeah." Yao Yan nodded.
"Master~" Yao Ling looked at Yao Yan with complicated eyes, saluted respectfully, and then gradually stood behind Yao Yan skillfully, with his eyes lowered, not daring to look directly at Yao Yan's whole body.
"Lord Xuwu, if there is nothing else here, I will return to the soul world first." Yao Yan looked at Xuwu Tunyan and said softly. It was obvious that he did not need to be responsible for the finishing work of the Medicine Clan. As for harvesting the property of the Medicine World... the most valuable things of the Medicine Clan had already been taken away by him, and he had no interest in fighting for the remaining trivial matters.
Compared to those, he wanted to go back and study the ninth-grade elixir recipe and the imperial-grade elixir recipe in the medicine spirit's soul. Perhaps he could gain some insights from them, especially the imperial-grade elixir recipe!
Xuwu Tunyan roughly guessed what Yao Yan was thinking, and did not stop him. He just nodded and said, "Don't delay too long... In a few days at most, the destruction of the Yao clan will be discovered by the Lei and Yan clans. By then, it will be time to take action against the two clans."
"As for the ancient clan..." Yao Yan hesitated when he heard this.
"It doesn't matter. The Lei and Yan clans are still wary of the Ancient Clan and have not had too much contact with them. It's enough to create a time difference." Xuwu Tunyan said coldly, his eyes revealing a bit of bloodthirsty brutality, but also hiding a little excitement.
The day to open Tushe Ancient Emperor is not far away!
Yao Yan nodded, and disappeared into the medicine world with Yao Ling. When they reappeared, they had already arrived at the Heavenly Tomb. An ancient Bodhi tree towering into the sky stood between heaven and earth, with endless pure air pouring down. In addition, there seemed to be an even taller ancient tree standing in the distance. The moment Yao Ling saw this scene, he was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief: "This... is this an ancient Bodhi tree?!"
Soon he was attracted by the ancient tree of life in the distance.
As the most direct descendant of the Medicine Clan in the contemporary era, she was naturally not unfamiliar with the ancient life trees of the Spirit Clan. With her rather special soul, she could clearly feel the state of the two peculiar ancient trees in front of her. The vast vitality and ancient charm were all extremely clear in her perception.
"Master~" a gentle royal sister's voice sounded in his ears, and then Lingxi in a white dress appeared in front of Yao Ling.
The moment Yao Ling saw Lingxi, she felt numb all over. She had seen Lingxi, the leader of the Ling tribe, several times, but what she didn't expect was that he would appear here and even recognize Yao Yan as his master... Could it be that he would suffer the same fate as her?
For a moment, Yao Ling found that there was nothing unacceptable.
"It's okay, just continue your practice." Yao Yan replied calmly. He and Lingxi didn't have any feelings for each other. They kept each other just to get what they needed. He used the other's unique physique to practice, but as his strength grew, the help Lingxi could bring to him was getting smaller and smaller.
Hearing this, Lingxi looked at Yaoyan helplessly. She actually wanted to practice with Yaoyan very much. Compared with practicing in seclusion on her own, practicing together with Yaoyan would undoubtedly help her improve her fighting spirit faster. However, when she saw Yao Ling, a strange look appeared in her gentle eyes.
"She is from the Medicine Clan..."
"The Yao clan has been destroyed, and the next will be the Lei and Yan clans." Yao Yan answered the question directly, and then landed under the ancient Bodhi tree with Yao Ling, who had only the cultivation level of a semi-saint. He needed the help of the ancient Bodhi tree to comprehend the formula of the emperor-grade elixir, and by the way, to comprehend the path of becoming the Medicine Emperor.
Being named Medicine Emperor, this Dou Emperor from the Medicine Clan is definitely the best in the Douqi Continent in terms of alchemy!
The imperial elixir recipe is undoubtedly the result of the other party's hard work, and contains the essence of the other party's alchemy skills.
Upon hearing this, Lingxi watched Yaoyan go away with a dazed look on her face. The once imperial clan had actually perished in this way. If it were only the Ling clan, she might have hated it, but now the Shi clan and the Yao clan had followed suit, and even in the near future, the Lei and Yan clans would do the same.
This made Lingxi think more...what exactly caused all this?
Blame the Soul Clan for their brutality? !
"Perhaps I should have handed over the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade back then..." Lingxi muttered to herself with sadness in her eyes.
But she obviously didn't know the real plan of the Soul Clan. Even if the Soul Clan really handed over the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade, they would not be able to save themselves, because refining the Emperor-grade embryo pill requires endless life energy. The major imperial clans have been sucking blood on the Douqi Continent for tens of thousands of years. Everyone in the clan is comparable to the little geniuses in the outside world. How could the Soul Clan let them go!
When a world’s cultivation resources are insufficient, especially when the lower classes can no longer continue to exploit others, the higher classes will naturally turn their attention to each other…
"Wow~"
The ancient Bodhi tree looked at Yao Yan's arrival, waved its branches joyfully, and dropped down fresh air to express its welcome.
"It seems that this place is very suitable for your growth." Yao Yan could feel the energy of the ancient Bodhi tree. As the evil energy was eliminated, the vitality of the ancient Bodhi tree was gradually recovering. Obviously, it would not take many years for it to return to its peak, and it might even have a chance to sprint to a higher level... However, this opportunity should not be in the Douqi Continent.
Due to the special nature of the ancient Bodhi tree, it only needs to be thrown into the universe. In a hundred years at most, it will have the opportunity to transform and become a supreme being.
"Hua La La~" The ancient Bodhi tree shook its branches to express its mood.
Yao Yan gently patted the trunk of the ancient Bodhi tree, then sat cross-legged in the air, looked at the reserved Yao Ling, and said lightly: "Pill recipe."
"I can give you the recipe for the elixir, but you have to give me a child!" Yao Ling took a deep breath, stared at Yao Yan seriously with her beautiful eyes, and stated her conditions nervously. This was the only way she could think of, to use a child to preserve the bloodline of the Yao clan.
Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. She didn't believe that Yao Yan would harm his own child.
Yao Yan looked at Yao Ling in surprise. He obviously didn't expect that the proud daughter of the Yao clan would say such words. However, such conditions were a bit ridiculous. The other party was not qualified to make conditions in front of him now, and he was not interested in coaxing a young girl. His mind moved slightly, and the evil spirit that invaded the depths of Yao Ling's soul began to run rampant.
A strange black air filled Yao Ling's eyes, instantly suppressing her soul. At the same time, it controlled her to send all the pill recipes in her mind into Yao Yan's mind through soul transmission.
The ninth-grade elixir recipes jumped past, and only some unique ninth-grade golden elixirs made Yao Yan stop and look at them. Then he looked at the imperial-grade elixir that interested him.
Emperor Pill: The Supreme Pill!
Emperor Pill: Tribulation Pill!
Emperor Dan: Three Difficulties Pill!
……
There are five kinds of Emperor Pills in total, and the required medicinal materials are extremely large, some of which are unheard of. The efficacy of the pills has not been described in detail, but from the names of the Emperor Pills, it is not difficult to infer the uses of these pills. Obviously, the Medicine Emperor has really been to the world, and thus left a considerable legacy to the Medicine Clan, but none of the descendants have become capable people.
"These alchemy techniques are quite interesting..." Yao Yan ignored the list of medicinal materials and focused all his attention on the refining techniques. He sat cross-legged in the void, closed his eyes and immersed himself in it. With the blessing of the ancient Bodhi tree, he began to comprehend the way of the Medicine Emperor! (End of this chapter)
