Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 531 Who...is he?

"Is this the seed of elemental power?"

In the room, Xiao Bai sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes half-closed, carefully sensing the changes within his body.

At this moment, his body seemed to have turned into a black hole, with the primordial energy of heaven and earth being continuously absorbed and rushing into his body.

These vital energies flow through the meridians, then circulate throughout the body along some mysterious pathway.

Finally, it slowly gathered in the dantian and gradually condensed into a bright milky white energy ball.

The energy cluster was only the size of a pigeon egg, yet it emitted a warm halo, like a miniature star.

"The Yuan Power Seed condensed at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm —"

Xiao Bai examined the seed of Yuan Power.

The Body Tempering Realm refines the physical body and strengthens the bones and muscles, ultimately condensing a seed of Yuan Power in the Dantian, laying the foundation for subsequent cultivation.

This should have been a slow and meticulous process, requiring years of dedicated practice.

"With my current physical foundation, reaching the Body Tempering Realm won't take much effort at all."

A slight smile appeared on Xiao Bai's lips.

His physical body was already powerful enough to kill a Battle King, far exceeding the standard of the Body Tempering Realm.

The current process of drawing in vital energy to temper the physical body is merely a formality, a way to allow the vital energy to nourish and adapt.

He could even feel the seed of Yuan energy in his dantian growing at a visible speed.

Soon, the seed of Yuan energy in his dantian trembled violently!

"Om one"

An even stronger suction force erupted from Xiao Bai's body.

The surrounding vital energy surged in like a burst dam, frantically pouring into his body.

The Yuanli Seed began to boil, expand, and transform!

Xiao Bai suddenly opened his eyes!

"Whoosh—whoosh—"

Two white wisps of smoke shot out from his nose like sharp arrows, piercing through the floor and leaving two bottomless holes.

"Earth Element Realm!"

Xiao Bai felt the warmth coming from his lower abdomen and opened his palm.

A wisp of milky-white energy appeared in his palm, moving like a serpent and emitting faint fluctuations of elemental power.

"Yuanli Yao————"

Xiao Bai carefully sensed this power.

Unlike battle qi, elemental power focuses more on the tempering and strengthening of the physical body.

"The battle qi is constantly condensed, causing its quality to change from a gaseous state to a liquid state, and then from a liquid state to a solid state, with its quality becoming higher and higher."

"As for Yuanli, it continuously absorbs and refines Yuanqi, tempering the physical body and making it stronger and stronger, with a greater emphasis on strengthening and enhancing the physique."

A flash of understanding crossed Xiao Bai's eyes.

Neither is superior to the other; they simply have different emphases.

Battle Qi can also temper the physical body, but compared to Yuan Power, it is more suited to mages—constantly accumulating mana.

Yuanli, on the other hand, is more inclined to increase the health of martial artists.

"At the Earthly Origin Realm, one needs to absorb Yin Sha Qi, and like a Fighter, can begin cultivating techniques!"

Xiao Bai looked at a small booklet placed in front of him.

The booklet cover was blank, but when you opened the first page, you saw five large characters: "Taiji Liangyi Leidian".

This is a brand new cultivation technique that he developed over three months, combining his insights from the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Scripture" with reference to the techniques given to him by Ling Qingzhu.

It is derived from the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Scripture" but also incorporates the cultivation system of the Tianxuan Continent.

This cultivation technique allows him to start from the Earthly Origin Realm and progress all the way to the Reincarnation Realm!

As for the ancestral realm—

He doesn't quite understand the mysteries of that level yet, so he'll have to talk about it later.

Xiao Bai looked up at the void, utterly speechless at the Embryo of That Dimension.

He wanted to integrate the power of the Demon-Slaying Thunder and the God-Slaying Thunder into his cultivation technique to create the Profound Yin and Righteous Yang Thunder Elemental Power.

However, both of these lightning bolts were imbued with the aura of the Dou Qi Continent.

He had tried it before when he created the technique, and once he used it, it would cause the rejection of the embryo of the Tianxuan Continent.

"I wonder if the Pure Yuan Pills obtained from those three people are enough to cleanse the fighting spirit aura on the God-Slaying Demon Lightning?"

'

Xiao Bai waved his hand and took out three storage bags.

He already knew the number of Pure Yuan Pills inside; it totaled around 500,000.

He had found a solution to the rejection problem after trying it before.

The rich primordial energy in the Pure Yuan Pill can be used to cleanse the aura and dispel this repulsive force.

Although it's not very efficient, it is indeed effective.

"Speaking of which, we have to thank those three kind people."

A slight smile appeared on Xiao Bai's lips.

Although he didn't know who they were, he really didn't know where he would have gotten such a large number of Pure Yuan Pills if it weren't for their generosity.

"Let's begin."

Xiao Bai took a deep breath and composed himself.

With a thought, the small talisman Dao Fruit in his sea of ​​consciousness trembled slightly.

A black bolt of lightning shot out from the talisman, moving through the sea of ​​consciousness like a serpent.

Although it was only a trace, the murderous and destructive intent it contained was enough to terrify anyone.

Xiao Bai patted the storage bag.

"Splash!"

Countless Pure Yuan Pills gushed out, cascading down like a waterfall.

In an instant, the entire room was filled with rich spiritual energy, which almost solidified into a milky white mist that permeated the air.

"go!"

Xiao Bai touched the void with his fingertip.

The black lightning bolt shot out of his mind and appeared in the room.

It began to wander among the Pure Yuan Pills, frantically devouring the Yuan Qi released by them.

"Hiss hiss hiss"

The black electric light made a faint sound when it came into contact with the vital energy.

With each wisp of vital energy absorbed, the fighting spirit within the black lightning weakened by one point.

However, at the same time, the Pure Yuan Pill was also being consumed, dimmed, and turned into powder at a visible rate.

This process is slow and continuous.

Outside the door, the Fiery Spirit Eagle, which had been greedily absorbing the overflowing energy in the room, suddenly trembled.

It sensed a terrifying sense of destruction, which made its very soul tremble.

It immediately shrank its neck into its feathers, its body trembling, and dared not approach the door again.

Time passed day by day.

Xiao Bai sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes closed, his mind completely immersed in the process of cleansing the thunder.

The amount of Pure Yuan Pills in the room was decreasing, while the amount of powder on the ground was increasing.

The black lightning grew increasingly pure, and the aura of battle energy within it became increasingly faint.

Finally, a month later.

"Buzz"

The black lightning suddenly trembled, having completely washed away the aura of the Dou Qi Continent and fully integrated into the system of the Tianxuan Continent!

"It's done!"

Xiao Bai opened his eyes, and two streaks of pitch-black lightning flashed from his pupils, like lightning from the abyss, sending chills down one's spine.

"Celestial Origin Realm!"

He felt the warmth returning to his lower abdomen and knew that his cultivation had broken through to a new level.

For him, advancing from the Earthly Realm to the Heavenly Realm was not difficult at all.

As long as he has enough energy, he can break through several realms in a short period of time!

But Xiao Bai frowned.

He looked at the thick layer of Pure Yuan Pill residue under the bed and felt a headache coming on.

"Five hundred thousand Pure Yuan Pills were almost all used up to wash away a wisp of the battle aura of the God-Slaying Demon Lightning."

"In the current Tianyuan Realm, the Demon-Slaying Divine Thunder has not yet been refined—"

Xiao Bai rubbed his temples.

This means that if he wants to continue to break through, integrate the Demon-Slaying Divine Thunder, and create a complete Xuan Yin Zheng Yang Thunder Yuan Power, he will need a large number of Pure Yuan Pills.

Moreover, the number may be even greater than this time!

"Pure Essence Pill—"

Xiao Bai stroked his chin, deep in thought.

Where could he obtain a large quantity of Pure Yuan Pills in a short period of time?

Should we continue robbing?

"With so many gaps, we'd have to raid a major power."

Xiao Bai shook his head, quickly dismissing the idea.

He still has a sense of shame.

If someone offends him, he might as well just rob them.

But they had no grudge against each other, and they robbed each other simply for the Pure Yuan Pill.

He can't bear the shame!

This is like in a past life, a CEO worth hundreds of billions robbing a few hundred dollars.

If word gets out, how will I ever be able to face the world again?

"We need to think of a more serious approach—"

Xiao Bai fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up!

He already knows where there are large quantities of Pure Yuan Pills!

Xiao Bai was always decisive and efficient, and once he had a goal, he no longer hesitated.

He jumped straight off the bed and pushed open the door.

The Fiery Spirit Eagle outside the door was watching him cautiously.

"Let's go, settle the bill, and get out of here."

They took the Flaming Spirit Eagle to the innkeeper, settled the room fee, and asked him for a map of the Great Yan Dynasty.

Xiao Bai glanced at the map and quickly found a certain location.

"Let's go to the Great Wilderness County!"

He put away the map, jumped onto the back of the Flaming Spirit Eagle, and pointed in a direction.

The Fiery Spirit Eagle soared into the sky and flew towards the Great Wilderness County.

The vast, ancient plains stretch out before you.

Occasionally, you can see groups of two or three people heading in one direction.

That's the direction where the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele is located.

Although there is still more than a month before the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele officially opens, many people have already arrived early in order to secure a good spot.

"Hey——!"

A clear, melodious cry suddenly rang out from the sky.

Someone looked up and immediately saw a giant, fiery red bird streak past at lightning speed.

"The Fiery Spirit Eagle—this kind of demonic beast prefers to live on cliffs and in forests, how did it end up in this desolate ancient plain?"

A middle-aged martial artist asked in confusion.

"Aren't you focusing on the wrong thing? Didn't you notice that it can actually fly here?"

A companion nearby reminded him.

The middle-aged martial artist was taken aback, then realized what he meant and his expression changed: "That's right! Although there is still a month before the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele opens, the effect of sealing off the sky is already very obvious. The closer you get to the depths, the stronger the anti-air effect becomes."

"How can it fly so fast?"

There are special restrictions around the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele, which will form a no-fly zone.

The closer you get to the ancient stele, the stronger the anti-fly zone effect.

But how could this Fiery Spirit Eagle still fly so fast in the sky?

This doesn't make sense!

The crowd discussed the matter animatedly, filled with doubt.

The sound reached Xiao Bai's ears from the eagle's back, and he immediately seemed to be deep in thought.

"Is there still a month left?"

He didn't know the exact time when the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele would open, but he arrived early.

However, this was not a problem for him at all.

Does he need to check the time before he goes in?

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

A colossal, ancient monument, thousands of feet tall, came into view.

It stands silently deep in the plain, like an ancient mountain that has stood forever, exuding an aura of vicissitudes and antiquity.

The stone tablet is grayish-white all over, its surface covered with traces of time and engraved with huge runes.

The runes were mysterious and complex, emanating a faint pressure that caused the surrounding space to distort slightly.

"The work of a powerhouse at the Reincarnation Realm —"

"It's just a pity that, due to the passage of time, many of the restrictions have lost their effectiveness and their power has been greatly reduced."

Xiao Bai immediately saw through the stone tablet, which contained a vast space within it.

The stone tablet itself is the entrance to that space.

This method is similar to the small world created by a Dou Sheng powerhouse.

With only a hundred meters or so left to the ancient stele, the Fiery Spirit Eagle beneath their feet suddenly refused to fly any further.

Xiao Bai said helplessly, "Go down."

Upon hearing this, the Fiery Spirit Eagle immediately perked up, flapped its wings twice, and landed steadily on the ground.

After landing, it glanced at the ancient stele in the distance with lingering fear and shrank its neck.

Xiao Bai leaped down from the bird's back and his gaze fell on the ancient stele.

Behind him stretched a long line of tents, where many people who had come to wait for the ancient stele to be opened had set up camp.

At this moment, countless eyes were fixed on him.

Clearly, the sight of the Flaming Spirit Eagle flying through the air had caught everyone's attention.

Xiao Bai did not turn around, but simply walked towards the stone tablet.

The Flaming Spirit Eagle hesitated for a moment, but still cautiously followed.

"What is he trying to do? Doesn't he know the stone tablet will be opened in a month?"

"I don't know, maybe he's a young master from some powerful family, the kind who thinks he's something special..."

'

Whispers arose from the crowd, their eyes revealing a look of anticipation.

"Hey, buddy, don't get too close. The stone tablet hasn't been opened yet, and the space within hundreds of meters around it is quite unstable. Accidents could easily happen."

Just then, a lazy and charming voice came from not far behind.

Xiao Bai turned around to look.

A woman dressed in black was standing not far away, her languid and alluring smile slowly freezing.

The woman was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with fair skin, pretty face, and a pair of alluring eyes like peach blossoms, like a little fox.

Mu Qianqian was somewhat dazed at this moment.

The moment Xiao Bai turned around, she was actually amazed.

Yes, stunning!

"I was amazed by what I saw in a young boy," which left her somewhat stunned.

The boy was about fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in a dark gold robe, with a tall and upright posture and an extraordinary temperament.

She had only intended to offer a reminder and, incidentally, ask if the eagle behind him was for sale.

The Flaming Spirit Eagle is a rare flying monster, and buying it would be a great help to her.

But I never expected this person to have such an outstanding temperament!

Xiao Bai nodded slightly, acknowledging her reminder.

He then turned and continued walking toward the stone tablet without stopping at all.

Meanwhile, the people around Mu Qianqian whispered among themselves, "Young Miss, you wouldn't have fallen for him, would you?"

"Yeah, you were practically staring at him just now, but then again, he's really good-looking!"

"Tsk tsk, I never thought that our little witch from the Great Wilderness County would have a time when she feels the stirrings of love."

Mu Qianqian's face flushed slightly, and she glared fiercely at the group: "Shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouths apart!"

The group shrank back, no longer daring to make any more jokes.

Their young lady was a notorious little devil, with endless tricks up her sleeve to play pranks, so they dared not be too outrageous.

But they were all secretly surprised.

The young lady's reaction—something's not right.

Normally, if any man dared to ignore her like this, she would have already lost her temper.

But today, instead of getting angry, she blushed?

Countless eyes followed Xiao Bai.

Soon, he arrived at the stone tablet.

Under normal circumstances, the space at this distance would be distorted, torn apart, and might even sweep people into spatial turbulence.

But Xiao Bai was unharmed.

He stood in front of the stone tablet, seemingly examining the runes on it.

A moment later, he waved.

A silver figure appeared out of thin air and landed on the ground.

The figure was tall and muscular, entirely silver, with some blood-red patterns engraved on its surface.

"puppet?"

Some people recognized that this was not a real person.

"What a powerful puppet! Just seeing it standing there makes my heart pound!"

"What level of puppet is this? Is it at the Shaping Realm? Or the Qi Creation Realm?"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

Xiao Bai ignored the surrounding discussions, simply pointed to a spot on the stone tablet, and said to the silver puppet, "Punch this way with all your might."

Upon hearing this, the silver puppet's eyes blazed with intense red light.

It raised its right arm, and its metallic fist began to gather power.

"Om one—"

The surrounding air began to distort, groaning under its own weight.

A faint silver light appeared on the surface of the silver puppet's fist, a sign that its power had been condensed to the extreme.

"boom-!!!"

A deafening explosion!

The silver puppet's fist slammed hard into the stone tablet!

In an instant, the earth shook!

The towering stone tablet, thousands of feet tall, seemed to tremble!

Centered on the point where the fist landed, a visible shockwave spread outwards, blowing the surrounding dust into the air.

Immediately afterwards—

"Snap—!"

A spatial rift several meters high was torn open by the silver puppet's single punch!

The edge of the crack shimmered with silver spatial turbulence, while the inside was pitch black, as if leading to another world.

"It's...it's open?!"

Countless people stared at this scene with their mouths agape, their eyes practically bulging out of their sockets.

What did they see?

The seal on the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele—was torn open by brute force?!

Moreover, this was before the ancient stele was officially opened to the public?!

How is this possible?!

The seal of the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele is something that even Nirvana Realm experts cannot shake!

Just as everyone was in shock, Xiao Bai had already waved his hand and put away the silver puppet.

Then, under the gaze of countless incredulous eyes, he took a step and stepped into the spatial rift.

"Bang!"

After the spirit eagle followed it in, the spatial rift slowly closed, as if it had never existed.

All that remained were the stunned crowd and the still-standing, towering ancient stele.

silence.

A deathly silence.

After a long while, someone finally murmured to themselves, "Am I...am I seeing things?"

"The Great Wilderness Ancient Stele—was opened ahead of schedule?"

"And it was torn open by brute force—by shearing it open?"

"Who exactly is that person?"

Mu Qianqian was also stunned, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.

She originally thought that the young man was just exceptionally handsome, perhaps a scion of some powerful family.

But now it seems—

She was wrong.

Big mistake!

How could someone possess a puppet capable of tearing open the seal of the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele with brute force?

"Who exactly is he?"
