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

Chapter 261 The Remains of the Creation Saint

Beast Realm, Skeleton Mountain Range—

Three streaks of light drifted to the sky above the Bone Mountain Range; the three people were Xiao Li, Zi Yan, and Yao Chen.

"This is it!"

The old doctor used his soul power to scan the mountain range and indeed made some discoveries.

"There really is one, the ruins of an ancient Battle Saint! I wonder if there's anything good inside."

Xiao Li nodded: "Next, we'll sweep through this ancient ruin. However, since we forcibly activated this Dou Sheng ruin, it has essentially been revealed to the world. We need to act quickly."

Zi Yan sniffed the air: "Xiao Li, I have a feeling there are definitely a lot of medicinal herbs inside!"

"Alright, let's get started. Ziyan, we need your spatial talent here. Yao Lao and I will assist you."

"Hmm." Zi Yan immediately transformed back into her original form, becoming a gigantic ancient dragon of the void, and then forcefully tore apart the spatial barrier protecting the Dou Sheng's relics!

Xiao Li and Yao Lao joined forces to use their spatial powers to help Zi Yan tear apart the spatial barrier.

Suddenly, a golden light shot into the sky, and the ruins of the Battle Saint were opened!

Meanwhile, in Zhongzhou, someone shouted, "Look what that is! It's heading towards the Beast Realm!"

"Look at this radiance, it's like the emergence of a relic! Is it the relic of a Dou Zun, a Dou Sheng, or even the legendary Dou Di?"

"What are you thinking? The remains of a Dou Di? Have you gone mad from cultivating too much?"

"Hurry up, everyone is equal before opportunity!"

The Beast Realm! "A relic has been opened in the Beast Realm! This marks the beginning of the rise of my Mighty Demon Bear clan!"

"This ruin is actually on the territory of my Nine Netherworld Serpent! Hahaha! Men, go and see what treasures are hidden in that ruin!"

At this moment, inside the ruins of the Dou Sheng, Xiao Li, Yao Lao, and Zi Yan had already begun to rummage around. They first went to the Pill Hall and collected a lot of good things, including three pill beasts, one of which was about to evolve into a ninth-grade treasure pill!

The old doctor found many ancient pill formulas, but unfortunately, he didn't find any ninth-grade pill formulas.

"Zi Yan, wipe your drool! You've eaten before! I'll refine another grade nine precious pill for you later!" Xiao Li carefully preserved the pill beasts, afraid that Zi Yan would eat them all.

"Then I'll be waiting. I haven't even had a chance to taste your Tribulation Pill, and it's already gone." Zi Yan said with a pout, then suddenly turned to face a certain spot.

"What's wrong?"

Zi Yan pointed to that spot: "It smells wonderful there! It must be a medicinal herb garden!"

Xiao Li and Yao Lao exchanged a glance, then turned into streaks of light and disappeared in the direction Zi Yan pointed.

They broke down the stone gate that was blocking their way, and what came into view was a forest! An ancient forest entirely constructed from various rare medicinal herbs!

. . . . .

"This place, this place! It's simply paradise!" Zi Yan exclaimed, her mouth watering as she looked at the forest.

"Image, image! I haven't mistreated you, why are you acting like this? You are the Dragon Emperor, what kind of appearance do you look like? Go back to your previous aloof demeanor," Xiao Li said, tugging at Zi Yan.

Zi Yan wiped her drool, coughed, and resumed her previous aloof and noble demeanor, though she continued to scan the forest.

"What should we do? Should we collect these medicinal herbs, or what? This nursery is very valuable." The old herbalist was conflicted, feeling it would be a huge loss to only collect the herbs here and abandon the entire forest.

"That's easy!" Xiao Li took out a spatial jade mirror from his pocket and crushed it.

Click—

The space behind Xiao Li shattered the next moment, and Xiao Kong walked out from the spatial rift.

"What's wrong with Xiao Li?"

"Ancestor, look at this ancient forest, a natural medicinal garden! Why not pack it all up and take it away, placing it in an empty space—"

How is it in the Xiao Realm?

Xiao Li was reluctant to part with such a good nursery. The two Dou Sheng could have taken this ancient forest with them if they joined forces, but unfortunately, he and Yao Chen had other things to do, so Xiao Li could only call on Ancestor Xiao Kong.

Xiao Kong swept his soul power over the area and then nodded: "It's a good place, leave it to me!"

Xiao Kong clenched his fists, and his boundless battle qi and soul power directly covered the entire ancient forest!

"Old Xiao, you're really straightforward and crude!" Old Yao's lips twitched; he hadn't expected there to be such a method.

"What else? Would I be a fool not to use our ancestor? Time waits for no one! We need to explore the next place, and wait until others..."

"Xiao Li! There! Hurry!" Zi Yan grabbed Xiao Li and flew at top speed toward a certain place.

"Hey! Wait for me!" Yao Lao immediately followed.

Xiao Kong: ...What are these little guys up to now?

Zi Yan led Xiao Li directly to the center of the forest, where they couldn't even sense a trace of a magical beast!

As Zi Yan stretched out her jade hand and touched the empty space half a foot in front of her, a golden light suddenly appeared out of thin air.

The sudden appearance of the golden light surprised Yao Chen. Then the golden light took the shape of an inverted bowl, round at the top and wide at the bottom, with an area of ​​about ten feet. Although the golden light was dazzling, it was covered by layers of trees, and it was impossible to find unless you were very close.

"Could this be a Beast Spirit Shield?" Yao Lao asked uncertainly, looking at the shield.

"Oh? Elder Yao, you also know about the Beast Spirit Shield?" Zi Yan turned her head, just about to explain.

"Uh... these are just some experiences from my youth. Cough cough, only extremely powerful magical beasts can condense such a beast spirit shield when they are about to die." The old man coughed, thinking he wouldn't say that the knowledge about the beast spirit shield was told to him by a little fox.

"This is the Beast Spirit Shield of my Ancient Void Dragon Clan... Wait! Why does it also smell like a mixed-breed bird? A Heavenly Demon Phoenix? No! It's an Ancient Heavenly Phoenix!"

Zi Yan sensed the aura within the Beast Spirit Shield. She had never seen the Heavenly Demon Phoenix or the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, but through the inheritance within the Dragon Emperor Seal, Zi Yan learned about the mortal enemy of the Ancient Void Dragon.

Zi Yan bit her slender jade finger, and a wisp of golden blood welled up at her fingertip. She gently touched the beast spirit shield with her fingertip and then drew a golden bloodstain.

"This kind of beast spirit shield can only be activated by those with the same bloodline."

As the golden bloodstain was drawn, the area rippled rapidly. Then, the golden light shield fluctuated, and a golden crack slowly tore open.

"Let's go."

Xiao Li and Yao Chen followed Zi Yan into the Beast Spirit Shield.

Unlike the outside world, the area inside the Beast Spirit Shield is an extremely desolate plain. In the center of that plain, there is an ancient stone altar that is hundreds of feet tall, and a faint but powerful aura emanates from the altar!

Xiao Li and the others were highly skilled and completely ignored this oppressive aura.

Xiao Li and the others ascended the enormous altar together!

As Zi Yan felt the call of her bloodline growing stronger, she quickly arrived at the altar, where the scene that greeted her left her stunned.

In the center of the altar, there was a stone platform in shades of gold and purple. On the platform, there was a groove about half a foot in size. From within that groove, a sapling grew out of the stone platform. The sapling was no thicker than a thumb, yet it coiled and twisted like a giant dragon. At the top of the sapling hung a fruit.

The fruit is about the size of a palm and is gold and purple in color. Upon closer inspection, one can see that the gold half, winding and twisting, is exactly like an ancient dragon shrunk countless times, while the other half, purple, is a bird-like creature with outstretched wings, resembling a phoenix.
