Fights Break Sphere: I am not Xiao Yan

Chapter 127 Companion Snake Spirit
"There are soul fluctuations."

Xiao Yan was looking at the huge skeleton when Yao Lao suddenly noticed something was wrong and warned him.

Although out-of-body souls can appear since the beginning of Dou Ling, the strength of the soul at this stage is too weak to support long-term activities.

For example, the soul laborers gathered by the Soul Palace, the lowest level of whom is a Soul Envoy at the Dou Wang or Dou Huang level, and they are all thugs and food specially refined by the Dharma Protectors.

'A soul that can continue to exist for a long time after death... its cultivation level in life must have reached the Dou Zun level.'

"But the aura and appearance don't match at all. Apart from a seventh-level corpse, what else can be found here?"

Xiao Yan's eyes were slightly stern.

"Teacher, what did you find?"

If it really is a Dou Zun, they would not be able to swallow such a big fish now.

If the opponent is determined to resist the burning soul and fights hard, he can completely recover to a high-level Dou Zong like Skyfire Venerable. With such strength, even Yao Lao can only temporarily avoid him.

"I'm not sure either, but I can sense the presence of soul power in this skeleton."

Yao Lao's eyes swept up the snake bones and finally stopped at the magic core between the eyebrows: "The breath of this skeleton seems familiar? This blood energy is exactly the same as Medusa..."

“It can exist in the form of a demon beast and has even reached the seventh level. This should be a Medusa queen who successfully evolved from a certain generation. But for some reason, she was buried here away from her tribe.”

After looking around to no avail, Yao Lao simply floated in, stretched out his hand and touched the bone, injecting some soul power into it.

Spots of white light emerged, and another breath emerged from the somewhat shriveled core of the monster, fluctuating along with the remaining soul power in its body.

"Companion snake spirit?"

Xiao Yan, who had just seen Qing Lin summon a spirit, immediately guessed what this aura was. He threw out a few bottles of Nourishing Spirit Powder to refine it, and attached the refined medicinal power to his bones and allowed it to penetrate into the inside.

As the medicinal power took effect, the weak mental fluctuation gradually became stronger, and spots of purple light emerged from the magic core, and even an illusory snake shadow emerged from it and swam back and forth.

"The evolution of the Medusa clan is full of dangers. Even if they succeed in activating their bloodline, it will cause irreparable damage to their souls..."

"I'm afraid this is the so-called second soul? The companion soul that was devoured in the past also took advantage of this opportunity to re-condense its spirituality and compete with the main body for control of the body."

Yao Lao recalled the information in the ancient books of the Snake People. After thinking for a few seconds, he cut off a small part of the origin from the soul and filled it into the purple light.

Having obtained a trace of the essence of this soul energy, the half-dead snake spirit instantly began to glow with a glimmer of life, and its intelligence was rekindled by the spiritual energy carried by Yao Lao's soul, and it was faintly about to regain its former glory.

"Teacher, this?"

Xiao Yan's face changed: "If it is to make up for its deficiencies, wouldn't it be enough to directly inject soul power? Why should we consume the origin to help it?"

In order to restore Yao Lao to the Dou Zong level, a lot of effort had been put in, including removing the brand poison and beating the withered owl ape. The seventh-grade one that was finally made also came with the thunder tribulation accumulated in the prize pool...

It is really not worth it to consume my essence for this inexplicably surviving soul.

Even if he didn't feel sorry for Yao Lao himself, Xiao Yan also felt sorry for the pill!

"Heh... nothing's wrong~"

Yao Lao waved his hands nonchalantly: "Doesn't that little girl need a snake spirit? I think this companion soul that was upgraded to the seventh level with Medusa is very good. Give it to her!"

What could such a tiny loss of essence do to him? It was impossible for him to die on the spot.

Xiao Yan is in need of help right now, so as a teacher, he naturally needs to find opportunities as much as possible and grasp all directions for improvement.

"Don't feel too bad about it."

"This soul has already evolved. I can't tell you exactly where the upper limit of its talent is, but I think there will be no problem in helping her advance to Dou Zun."

Yao Lao patted the skeleton and said, "I have done my best for you, old man. If you don't find me a good body to revive me, I will never forgive you!"

"Why do you make me look like a rude guy..."

Xiao Yan’s eyes twitched slightly.

Does he look like the kind of person who would betray his teacher and ancestors? Does he look like the kind of person who would repay kindness with enmity?

"Oh... I can't say for sure."

Yao Lao kept hissing and raised his hand to ignite the Bone Spirit Cold Fire to wrap the entire skeleton. The blazing fire melted the dry bones in an instant, condensing into bits of gray-white molten liquid, and seven drops of purple-red essence blood were also tempered out.

"I met someone like you who looked well-behaved and sensible. He was just as brilliant and amazing."

After sealing the refined items and storing them in the storage ring, Yao Lao patted Xiao Yan's shoulder with emotion: "Who knew... he would be so cruel as to stab him with that knife."

He treated that boy as his own son.

Even his own lifelong event was delayed, and all the affairs of Xingyun Pavilion were pushed to Master Feng.

In fact, if he had not wasted a lot of time teaching Han Feng, he might have seized the opportunity to be promoted to Half-Saint.

"Uh... no matter how much you think about him in your heart, you can't treat me as him, right?"

Xiao Yan, who was suddenly frightened by the old man's grumbling, reached out and patted the soul body, but as expected, it was all penetrated.

However, this little thing naturally couldn't bother him. Xiao Yan thought for only half a second before pouring the Nourishing Spirit Powder on his hand and patting the air. The medicinal power was more or less transferred to Yao Lao.

"He's already a hundred or eighty years old, why is he so happy and sad like a child..."

Xiao Yan sighed secretly: "If you really can't get over this hurdle in your heart, you can stab me now in advance, just regard it as an advance payment."

Even if you are backstabbed in the future as you expected, at most it's just a draw, right?

"Bullshit."

Yao Lao blew his beard and glared: "I was just expressing my feelings to you, why did you take it so seriously?"

What a joke...How could he have the heart to stab his own son?

"Okay, okay... You're the boss."

Xiao Yan raised his hands in surrender: "Take the things and go out now, don't wait too long, or the snake spirit will consume too much and lose its form."

Unfortunately, the builders of this tomb didn’t seem to know much about the preservation techniques of medicinal herbs. They simply packaged them up and placed them in a corner. Now they have basically aged into dead branches or even turned into ashes.

Only the scrolls and gold coins are useful.

"In this Douqi Continent, no one knows how much gold is buried underground..."

Xiao Yan gathered the torrent of gold coins and suddenly remembered the scene in the original novel where 3 billion gold coins were used to purchase the Heavenly Stage.

Isn’t the difference in purchasing power before and after too big?

You should know that the materials for the foundation-building spiritual liquid alone require thousands of gold coins, and this is only a second-grade elixir.

The value of a first-grade elixir is only about 100 to 80. Overall, even if we don't consider the nine levels within the eighth grade, the value of each level up has to be multiplied by dozens. Is the value of a heavenly-grade technique comparable to a top-notch eighth-grade elixir?

That’s all?

Xiao Yan felt that if he traveled around the Douqi Continent more often and did some grave digging, he could collect enough gold coins.

"Just this tomb can gather tens of millions of gold coins, not to mention all those miscellaneous medicinal materials, skills, and mechanical scrolls."

It can't be that the price is too low because there is no demand for it, right?
After all, it's all barter in the end, who would give you so many gold coins to pay?

"In any case, save them up. You may need these valuables someday..."

Thanks to the exaggerated storage ring capacity given by Jia Xingtian, there is room to store so many miscellaneous things.

……

"Master Xiao Yan, you finally came out!"

Qinglin, who was sitting on the snake shadow, showed surprise on his face.

"This is what you are doing?"

Xiao Yan frowned slightly. As soon as he walked out of the closed space, he saw that the two people guarding outside had disordered auras, and dark green scars were faintly visible on the arm of the Great Elder.

However, the look she gave Qinglin was filled with horror, and she had no idea how Qinglin had just displayed his divine power.

"My Lord, a sixth-rank beast came over just now to investigate. When it saw this girl, it thought that I came alone with the younger generation of my tribe and wanted to take revenge on the snake people, so it concealed its aura and suddenly attacked..."

The Great Elder replied in a low voice, but his eyes frequently glanced at Qing Lin beside him: "But fortunately, with the help of this girl, nothing serious happened. It was just that I was not careful for a moment and the beast fought back desperately and suffered minor injuries."

As for the specific battle process?
Of course, the monster rushed forward confidently, temporarily repelling the Great Elder and wanting to torture Qing Lin...

Sanhuatong: Oh, you dare to look me in the eye? You are not on guard?

It was an instant kill, nothing much to say.

When the Great Elder recalled the strange energy that had just emanated from those pupils, he felt his soul tremble. The companion snake spirit that had long since merged into his own soul began to struggle as if it had been awakened.

It was like seeing a natural enemy, activating the instinct for survival.

'Where does this little girl come from...how can she possess such a terrifying power?'

The Great Elder's heart was filled with turmoil. After all, if he had looked at her a few more times, the other half of his soul might have been branded.

"Even as a Dou Huang, I have little power to resist. I am afraid that only by advancing to the Dou Zong realm can I resist the erosion of this strange power."

"Defeat the Dou Huang?"

Xiao Yan looked at Qing Lin in surprise. How high was this girl's cultivation level now? How could she be able to fight against such a strong man head-on? He thought she could only play a supporting role at the side.

"Hey, no."

Qing Lin blinked his eyes, and a stream of light suddenly emerged from the emerald green light pattern. It fell to the ground and turned into a huge black python. Its body was wrapped in emerald green poisonous gas, and its aura should have reached the level of a three-star Dou Huang.

Although his body was still intact, his eyes were extremely chaotic, with only two green lines flashing. It was obvious that his intelligence had been completely wiped out, and he could barely be used as a puppet.

"... is to take down the Dou Huang!"

Qing Lin walked to Xiao Yan in two steps, put his hands on his waist and raised his head, looking for praise: "How is it? Qing Lin is very strong now, right? I believe he can help the young master."

Very strong indeed...

Xiao Yan estimated the duration of the battle. Judging from this efficiency, Qing Lin could easily clear the entire Ten Thousand Snake Valley alone as long as he had a Dou Huang guarding him.

As long as you can't escape her sight, you will die.

"Boom!"

"Don't get too cocky, little one!"

Xiao Yan knocked on her head expressionlessly: "Now you are just taking advantage of these eyes. If you encounter other kinds of magical beasts, you won't be able to win even a fourth-level beast in your current condition, right?"

Hide your presence, get close, and attack by surprise.

How could Qinglin, with his current small body, possibly withstand it? One paw would smack him into a compressed biscuit.

"You still have a long way to go. Walk steadily for ten years and then see how things turn out."

Xiao Yan stretched out his hands and pinched her face and rubbed it back and forth. Qing Lin wanted to reply but could only stammer and mumble, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Although he thought the little girl's smug look was a little funny, it was much better than her previous timid and cowardly look. At least she looked like a child of her age.

"As expected of a young man, healed his psychological trauma quite quickly..."

Someone whose physical age is not even sixteen years old is filled with emotion.

"Alright~ Since you have nothing else to do, you should accept this great gift! You just subdued a sixth-level warrior, and you should be in high spirits now. It would be the most appropriate time to perform the secret technique."

Xiao Yan flipped his hand and took out an illusory little snake with a strange aura. A small piece of debris was melting inside its body, enhancing the aura on its surface.

"Seventh level!"

The Great Elder's eyes were shocked. He was just surprised by the realm of the snake spirit when he suddenly noticed the special appearance of this snake.

Snakes like this have long disappeared in the long river of history. The only ones that can be found are special individuals who have accidentally had the opportunity to return to their ancestral bloodline.

"This appearance... this fluctuation..."

The Great Elder recalled something and his face couldn't stop shaking.

Hiss~ Why does this snake look more and more like one of her ancestors?
"Phew! Leave it to me."

The moment Qinglin saw the snake spirit, the three pupils of the green snake opened involuntarily, as if it was stimulated by the powerful blood force, or as if it smelled delicious food.

He bit his finger and tapped the center of its forehead. Its spirit, which had long been unconscious, trembled a few times and was unable to offer any effective resistance.

However, as Qing Lin's blood essence was deeply tempered inside, the snake spirit suddenly began to tremble, and a resonant wave originating from Qing Lin's blood also spread from his body.

"This is?"

Qinglin opened her eyes in confusion when the secret technique was halfway through. She could feel the blood in her body becoming restless as if it was boiling. As for the snake man's bloodline, it began to become stronger. Even the green scales on her wrists and ankles began to itch and gradually proliferate.

"That snake... is actually the ancestor of the snake people?"

The great elder who was watching on the side suddenly hugged his head like crazy, muttering something about "sin, sin".

girl……

You are eating your own ancestors alive, do you know that?
