Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

Chapter 138 Two and a Half Years

Two and a half years later,

Tianmu Mountains, Tianshan Blood Pool

"Why has this seclusion taken so long? Didn't he already show signs of advancing to Dou Zun a year ago? Why is it taking so long, and why hasn't he emerged yet?"

Wang Ming stood in a stone pavilion, with two elderly men in gray robes pouring tea for him.

"Your Excellency, your esteemed disciple may have discovered some extraordinary opportunity in the Blood Pool. Please wait a little longer; the tea is ready. Please have some tea first," a thin, gray-robed old man said with a smile.

Wang Ming sighed, sat down on the stone chair, picked up his teacup, and began to drink tea.

After they entered Zhongzhou, Yun Yun said she wanted to travel around Zhongzhou and take a look at the information left by Yun Potian, and then she went to the Wanjian Mountain Range.

Pei Yuhan and Pei Yurou both reached the peak of Dou Zong. Wang Ming refined the Hunyuan Breakthrough Pill, and the two sisters went into seclusion to break through to Dou Zun.

Two and a half years ago, Wang Ming finally met the person he had been longing for. Just a few days after Wang Ming joined Yin Gu, Su Wanyin married him and officially became Xiao Li's master's wife.

With the help of the resources of the Sound Valley, Wang Ming's cultivation has improved rapidly in the past two years, and he has now reached the peak of the six-star Dou Zun level.

After taking the Purple-Green Supreme Pill left to him by Xiao Li, Wang Ming reached the three-star Dou Zun level. Afterwards, Wang Ming and Xiao Li improved the Heavenly Yang Blood Dragon Pill, refining it into an eighth-grade pill. Wang Ming then took a series of pure Yang tonics, such as the Crimson Yang Vermilion Fruit, and reached the peak of the six-star Dou Zun level.

It can only be said that special physiques are truly unreasonable. Now, Wang Ming can be considered a Dou Zun powerhouse with considerable strength in Zhongzhou.

As for Su Wanyin, due to her perfect state of mind and her marriage to Wang Ming, Su Wanyin's cultivation improved rapidly. In addition, Wang Ming refined some pills suitable for her physique, and now Su Wanyin is already a nine-star Dou Zun.

Whoosh—a sudden, deafening sound pierced the air!

"Hmm? It's out!" Wang Ming looked up at the sky above the blood pool, where a figure in black robes appeared.

Wang Ming stood up and walked up to Xiao Li: "Hmm? Two-star Dou Zun, so you've been using this environment to cultivate. I was wondering why you showed signs of advancing to Dou Zun a year ago, why are you only showing them now?"

Xiao Li slowly opened his eyes, his palms clenched slightly, feeling the vast, ocean-like battle qi within his body. He couldn't help but be captivated. This power possessed an irresistible allure that drove people mad; countless people had given their entire lives for it.

"As expected of a Dou Zun powerhouse, such strength is terrifying."

Xiao Li muttered to himself that he had come to the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool this time in order to break through to the Dou Zun level. He encountered a huge energy tide that was rare in decades. Xiao Li was also lucky and was able to absorb the fire attribute energy here by taking advantage of the energy tide.

Although the fire poison deep within the blood pool was extremely concentrated, Xiao Li possessed a unique fire protecting his body, preventing the fire poison from invading him.

However, even so, Xiao Li still went into seclusion for a long time. The energy required to cultivate from the peak of Dou Zong to Dou Zun was too great. Although the energy of heaven and earth here was good, it was not enough for Xiao Li to advance to Dou Zun. Xiao Li took two Dou Sheng bone marrows and broke through the barrier to advance to Dou Zun in one fell swoop.

Xiao Li then consumed two more Dou Sheng bone marrows, raising his cultivation to the level of a two-star Dou Zun.

"Teacher, how long have I been in seclusion? How come your cultivation level is so high? I can't tell!" Xiao Li looked at Wang Ming and couldn't sense Wang Ming's specific cultivation level. He only felt that Wang Ming was several levels stronger than before.

"You've been in seclusion for two years, but you haven't wasted much time. It's already quite impressive that you've gone from the peak of Dou Zong to a two-star Dou Zun in just two years."

As for your master, I am currently at the peak of the six-star Dou Zun realm, and I will soon break through to the seven-star realm. Moreover, because of your soul cultivation technique, my soul power has increased significantly, and I have now reached the mid-stage of the Spirit Realm.

With the Yin-Yang Cauldron you left here, I am capable of refining an eighth-grade pill that can summon six-colored pill lightning!

Wang Ming said proudly that since breaking through to the Dou Zun level, not only has his cultivation level increased by leaps and bounds, but his soul power has also greatly improved. The dual enhancement of his Dou Qi and soul power has allowed Wang Ming's alchemy skills to improve rapidly.

"I see. That's good. My soul power has now reached the peak of the mid-stage of the Spirit Realm. With some more cultivation, I might be able to reach the late-stage of the Spirit Realm."

"Teacher, do you think our current alchemy skills, when combined, can produce the Yin-Yang Reversal Pill?" Xiao Li has now broken through to the Dou Zun level, and the quality and quantity of his Dou Qi have been greatly improved.

Now, there will be no more exhaustion when refining eighth-grade pills.

"It should be a bit difficult. For each additional color of the pill lightning in an eighth-grade pill, the difficulty of refining it increases exponentially. I can refine an eighth-grade five-colored pill quite easily now, but refining an eighth-grade six-colored pill is much more difficult. The success rate is about 50/50."

However, if the two of us join forces, perhaps we can give it a try. After all, we both possess different kinds of flames and the Yin-Yang Cauldron, a treasure trove. It all depends on how effective our alchemy skills are!

Wang Ming stroked his chin as he spoke.

"Then let's give it a try. Let Uncle Jin Yi recover as soon as possible. With his talent, he should be able to reach the semi-saint level within a few years. At that time, with two semi-saints in charge of the Sound Valley, it will be much safer!"

Xiao Li focused on alchemy, prioritizing healing Tian Yinzi Su Jinyi. The Yin-Yang Reversal Pill was of paramount importance, as it was crucial for Tian Yinzi's recovery and the resurrection of Ancestor Xiao Kong!

"Well, now that you've broken through, return to the Sound Realm."

"it is good."

Xiao Li and Wang Ming then vanished into the void and left, while two timid old men emerged from the stone pavilion.

"Phew~ The two lords have finally left. We didn't even dare to breathe loudly under their noses. Clan Chief Jinshi, do you recognize which faction these two powerful figures belong to?" asked Jin Gu, an old man in gray.

Jin Shi pondered, "Both of them have a strong medicinal fragrance about them, so they must be alchemists. I don't recognize the Venerable Protector, but that young man in seclusion... I feel he resembles the young man who shone brightly at the Alchemy Conference a few years ago!"

Jin Gu exclaimed in surprise, "You mean that Master Wang Li, who ranked second in the Pill Refining Competition and refined an eighth-grade pill with only the cultivation of a Dou Huang? It's only been a few years! He's already become a Dou Zun powerhouse? We only managed to advance one star in a few years after entering the Dou Zong realm, and we still have to rely on the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool."

Jin Shi shook his head: "I only said it looks like it, and it's just a guess. Let's not worry about it. He has a Dou Zun-level teacher, so nothing is impossible. Besides, that Venerable easily solved the fire poison in my body, which is already a great favor. So let's not say anything more."

"Our Gold-Eating Rat clan can't afford to offend a Dou Zun level expert."

Jin Gu nodded: "Understood. By the way, clan leader, have you heard? Sword Venerable was defeated recently by a female Dou Zun who was also a sword cultivator."

"Oh? Is that so? Tell me about it?" Jin Shi never expected that the Sword Venerable, the master of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, one of the Four Directions Pavilions, would actually be defeated!

In the Tianmu Mountains, the Gold-Eating Rat clan has the most contact with the Sifang Pavilion. Every once in a while, the Sifang Pavilion will send a group of young people to the Tianmu Mountains for training.

Sword Venerable is quite powerful. Among the Four Directions Pavilion Masters, Wind Venerable is the strongest, Thunder Venerable and Sword Venerable are about the same strength and cannot be determined, and Yellow Spring Venerable is the weakest.

She was able to defeat the Sword Master, and she was a female sword cultivator at that!

Jin Gu: "I also heard the information from my subordinates. The location is Wanjian Mountain. The Sword Venerable was defeated."

The Gold-Eating Rat Clan is quite well-known in the Warcraft world. With a large number of members, they are well-informed about various matters and can be considered the all-knowing experts of the Warcraft world.

"It seems another storm is about to break out in Zhongzhou."
