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

Chapter 281 Situation of Various Forces

(P.S.: Fourth update, during the day!)

"Then I'll wait. By the way, Brother Chen, is this Pill Gathering really that terrifying? You even sent out Heavenly Fire?"

Venerable Wind also abandoned his relaxed expression, his gaze gradually becoming serious.

The old alchemist nodded: "This alchemy gathering may be the beginning of a reshuffling! Our Tianfu Alliance may very well be exposed to the scrutiny of the major imperial clans because of this gathering."

Venerable Wind's expression turned grave: "How could it be so serious?"

The old doctor sighed: "Because of the Styx Alliance, right? You may not know, but nowadays, besides the two Battle Saints, the Netherworld Old Monster and the Heavenly Netherworld Old Demon, the Styx Alliance also has three or four Half-Saints!"

Senior Tianyin of Yin Valley has discovered that the Soul Palace is behind the Styx Alliance. It can be said that the Styx Alliance was deliberately cultivated by the Soul Palace to stir up trouble on the continent!

Venerable Feng's pupils shrank: "How could this be! I was wondering why the Styx Alliance had so many powerful figures. It makes sense that the Soul Palace made a move! But didn't that Yin Yang Saint cripple the Soul Palace last time?"

"The Vice Hall Master, along with six Celestial Venerables, are all dead. The Soul Hall should be severely weakened, right? Why are they still doing these things?"

The old doctor shook his head: "It's not that easy. The Soul Palace is backed by the Soul Clan. How could it fall so easily? Soul Extinction is still there. I bet someone has already plugged up the hole in Soul Extinction."

The Styx Alliance is jumping around like crazy, probably trying to drag our Heavenly Mansion Alliance into the limelight. Given the size of our Heavenly Mansion Alliance, we'll likely incur the wrath of those imperial clans. Sigh…

Venerable Feng frowned: "The hatred of the imperial clans! That will cause the weaker imperial clans to form an alliance, and then put pressure on our Heavenly Palace Alliance! The Soul Palace's move is brilliant."

The old doctor sighed, but his gaze was firm: "The Soul Palace wants to sit back and watch the tigers fight. After all, the current imperial clans have been high and mighty for so long, so naturally they won't look down on the strong people on the continent. We are naturally a thorn in their side!"

Fortunately, our Tianfu is not weak now. I am now a late-stage two-star Dou Sheng, while the old man Tianyin from Yin Valley has taken the lead in reaching three-star Dou Sheng, and Su Jinyi (Tianyinzi) has also successfully broken through to one-star Dou Sheng.

The Fire Cloud Old Monster of Burning Flame Valley is a bit weaker than me, at the mid-stage of a two-star Dou Sheng. The Qinghua Two Immortals of the Flower Sect have also broken through to the Dou Sheng level, with Hua Qing already reaching the mid-stage of a one-star Dou Sheng.

Besides our few families, the Nine Netherworld Python clan of the Beast Realm is also our helper. A few days ago, Yao Ming sent news that he had also reached the three-star Dou Sheng level.

"Once Zi Yan emerges from seclusion and unifies the Ancient Dragon Clan of the Void, our Heavenly Palace will no longer need to fear those imperial clans."

Venerable Feng also laughed and said, "Fortunately, we are well hidden. Even if the alliance of our forces is exposed on the surface, there are still the Nine Netherworld Python and the Ancient Void Dragon."

They probably don't know that the Heavenly Phoenix Clan has completely fallen from its pedestal, and we and the Nine Netherworld Python Clan have completely divided up the Heavenly Phoenix Clan's collection!

My reserves of rare and precious herbs are now more than enough to last for a long time. With you, Brother Chen, distributing pills to the strong members of the alliance one after another, the Tianfu Alliance is growing stronger day by day.

Take our Starfall Pavilion for example. We now have more than fifty Dou Zun elders. Most of the rogue Dou Zun cultivators on the continent have come to join us.

"We have to thank the Styx Alliance for stirring things up; otherwise, half of those powerful figures would have been sitting on the sidelines watching the tigers fight."

In the Central Plains, the reputation of the Styx Alliance is almost surpassing that of the Soul Palace. After all, although the Soul Palace is domineering, it has not yet carried out large-scale bloodshed in the Central Plains.

The Styx Alliance is now like a mad dog, relentlessly biting, not only at various major powers, but also at some powerful families and business families.

Even the Dan Tower and the Styx Alliance dared to take action within the Dan Tower's territory, and even attacked the five major families of the Dan Tower!

Fortunately, the Pill Tower has many powerful figures and is not afraid of the Styx Alliance. However, the Styx Alliance has two Dou Sheng and several Ban Sheng, which makes the Pill Tower somewhat strained.

The old apothecary closed his eyes: "Once Little Flame gets the Three Thousand Burning Flames, we'll lay our cards on the table! Let's take down this damned Styx Alliance first!"

"We can wait a little longer!"

A cheerful voice rang out, and two figures appeared in the hall. One was a young man dressed in a dark green robe, and the other was a young woman in a purple-gold robe with dragon and phoenix patterns. However, she exuded an aura of nobility that seemed to rival the heavens and earth.

"Xiao Li! Zi Yan! You're back!" The old doctor opened his eyes and was invigorated when he saw the group!

"Well, it's been a few years. Let's talk about the current situation." Xiao Li and Zi Yan sat down to the side.

The old doctor told Xiao Li about the events that had happened over the years and the upcoming Dan Tower.

"So that's how it is. Let's wait a bit longer. I'm not afraid of the other imperial clans, but I'm afraid that the Soul Clan might change. I have a feeling that the Soul Clan is about to make its move!"

Our first target will be the Spirit Clan! I plan to bring the Heavenly Alliance to the forefront after something happens to the Spirit Clan! By then, the Imperial Clan will be too busy to care for themselves, which will be the time for us to purge the Central Plains!

Xiao Li said slowly.

"Is it really that serious? The Soul Clan is actually going to attack the Spirit Clan?" Yao Lao asked in surprise.

Xiao Li nodded: "Not only the Spirit Clan, but the Soul Clan will also target all the Imperial Clans! Their target is the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade! They want to open the Ancient Emperor's Cave!"

"What?!"

Xiao Li continued, "For now, we should remain still and not act rashly. If the Soul Clan tries to unite with other imperial clans to destroy us first, then the Dou Qi Continent will be finished!"

"Once the Soul Clan makes the first move, we'll put our plan into action! By the way, Elder Yao, have you found what I asked you about?"

The old apothecary nodded, then his gaze turned grave: "Found them. I truly didn't expect them to actually dare to do something like this!"

Venerable Wind looked puzzled: "What is it?"

Xiao Li nodded: "You continue your search, but don't act rashly. I'll stay with Zi Yan to unify Dragon Island first, and then we'll deal with this matter after the Spirit Clan's incident!"

"Oh? What is Ziyan's cultivation level now? I can't quite see it. Could it be that Ziyan has completely refined that Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit?"

The old apothecary could no longer discern Zi Yan's cultivation level.

Zi Yan smiled and said, "Master Yao, I am now at the early stage of the Eight-Star Dou Sheng realm! My bloodline has completely evolved into the Dragon-Phoenix bloodline."

"The legendary Supreme Dragon Phoenix! An Eight-Star Dou Sheng! Terrifying indeed!"

The old doctor looked at Xiao Li: "And what is your current cultivation level?"

"At the late stage of the four-star Dou Sheng realm, I have already squandered all the grade nine precious pills I have. I am stuck at the threshold of the five-star Dou Sheng realm. Sure enough, consuming too many pills will make the bottleneck at the later stages extremely solid."

Xiao Li sighed and said that taking too many Grade 9 pills at once had a very good effect and improved him a lot, but the current bottleneck was giving Xiao Li a huge headache. In the end, he had just had too little time to cultivate.

"Hiss~" Yao Lao was speechless. Xiao Li had only been a Dou Sheng for a short time, and he was already a late-stage four-star Dou Sheng! In the same year, Yao Lao had only raised his cultivation from the early stage of two-star Dou Sheng to the late stage of two-star Dou Sheng. Xiao Li's progress was too fast, wasn't it?
