Battle Through the Heavens: Reborn into the Xiao Family, Starting with Xiao Xuan's Inheritance

Chapter 105: Journey to the Ancient Realm, Heavenly Tomb Opens

The figure became clearer and clearer.

Gu Yuan's figure gradually became clearer, and with it came an extremely powerful and terrifying aura.

At this moment, even Xiao Yi, a Dou Huang powerhouse, was struggling to maintain his balance in the face of the terrifying pressure that Gu Yuan brought with him upon his arrival.

Xiao Xuan, on the other hand, simply smiled slightly: "Little fellow—"

"This is just a wisp of Gu Yuan's power projection, yet it exerts such strong pressure on you—"

After saying that, Xiao Xuan casually waved his hand, easily dispelling the oppressive aura from Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi couldn't help but mutter to himself, "So this is the aura of the continent's top experts—"

"Just a projection can create such a terrifying sense of oppression!"

The next second, the light surrounding Gu Yuan's projection slowly dissipated, and then Gu Yuan walked to Xiao Xuan's side with a smile, saying in a deep voice, "Xiao Xuan, why did you summon me here? Is there some trouble you've encountered?"

Xiao Xuan looked at Gu Yuan's projection and smiled slightly: "You old rascal; since you knew it was me calling you; why didn't you come in person, instead of just using a projection?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan's lips curled up slightly: "The situation on the continent is currently unstable, and as the patriarch of the Ancient Clan, I cannot frequently leave the Ancient Realm—"

"Speak now, what is it that made you crush the jade pendant—"

"Is there something in this Northwest Continent that you cannot resolve?"

A glint flashed in Gu Yuan's eyes as he looked at Xiao Xuan with great curiosity.

In Gu Yuan's view, even though Xiao Xuan was only a remnant soul, he was still a true Dou Sheng level expert.

Such strength, not to mention in the Northwest Continent, would be an extremely terrifying existence even in the Central Plains.

What could possibly make Xiao Xuan go so far as to crush the jade token and summon me here?

Xiao Xuan smiled slightly, paused for a moment, and then said in a deep voice, "That's naturally something that can't be solved, which is why I called you—"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan immediately became interested: "What is it?"

Xiao Xuan took a deep breath before saying in a solemn voice, "This little guy and I need to go to the Ancient Realm and enter the Heavenly Tomb!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan was slightly taken aback.

"The Heavenly Tomb!?"

"That place only opens once every twenty years, and it's not open yet—"

Xiao Xuan smiled slightly and looked at Gu Yuan: "You old rascal, you might be able to fool these juniors with that!"

"I think there's no need for you to lie to me now. With your strength, you think you can't even temporarily open an entrance to the Heavenly Tomb for the two of us to enter? You're a dignified Nine-Star Dou Sheng, the patriarch of an ancient clan, do you?"

Seeing Xiao Xuan's gaze, Gu Yuan felt a little embarrassed and subconsciously tried to avoid Xiao Xuan's eyes.

After a moment of contemplation, Gu Yuan sighed and said in a deep voice, "So be it, so be it—"

"I failed to keep my promise to take care of the Xiao clan back then, but now you're only asking for this much, I can't keep refusing you, can I?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuan's dark eyes revealed a strange look, but he still smiled slightly: "At least you old codger remember some of the friendship from back then—"

Gu Yuan nodded slightly and said softly, "Come with me."

As soon as Gu Yuan finished speaking, he raised his hand slightly.

A golden teleportation channel instantly appeared behind him.

A Dou Sheng powerhouse is able to create a living space in the void.

Such powerful spatial control makes opening a spatial teleportation channel a piece of cake for a Dou Sheng powerhouse.

Seeing this, Xiao Xuan turned around and glanced at Xiao Yi.

Following Xiao Xuan's signal, Xiao Yi followed Gu Yuan's footsteps and stepped into the spatial tunnel.

As the three stepped into the spatial tunnel, the golden light vanished instantly.

Xiao Yi and the other two then disappeared from the spot.

As soon as he stepped into the space tunnel, Xiao Yi felt a powerful suction force that was frantically tearing at every inch of his meridians.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi dared not be careless in the slightest.

He immediately circulated all the fighting energy in his body and used the Fallen Heart Flame to protect his heart meridian, which was just enough to withstand the pressure of that terrifying power.

I don't know how much time passed.

A golden light appeared before Xiao Yi's eyes.

The oppressive aura surrounding him slowly dissipated, and Xiao Yi looked around.

The surrounding environment had undergone tremendous changes, and Xiao Yi could clearly feel that the spiritual energy around him was extremely abundant.

Even just standing in this environment can make one feel refreshed and relaxed.

"Welcome to the Ancient Realm—"

A golden light flashed before their eyes, and then Gu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, a smile on his face, and spoke in a deep voice.

Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Yi looked over and could clearly sense that Gu Yuan was even more majestic than before, presumably because Gu Yuan's true form had descended.

Looking up, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but sigh, "A thousand years have passed, and I never imagined the ancient realm would be even more magnificent and imposing now!"

"It seems the ancient clans have developed quite well over the years—"

After Xiao Xuan finished speaking, he slightly turned his head to glance at Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan did not speak, but simply nodded.

Gu Yuan then turned his gaze to Xiao Yi, sized him up, and said, "A four-star Dou Huang, possessing a strange fire!"

"It's truly remarkable that the Xiao clan has such a descendant!"

Gu Yuan's praise for Xiao Yi at this moment was indeed from the bottom of his heart, because Gu Yuan also knew that...

The descendants of the Xiao clan no longer possess the bloodline of the Dou Di.

Without the support of the Dou Di bloodline, Xiao Yi's rapid growth truly demonstrates his extraordinary talent for cultivation.

"Senior is too kind. My achievements today are entirely due to the guidance of my ancestors—"

Xiao Yi cupped his hands and spoke.

Xiao Xuan smiled slightly: "Why are you being so polite, kid?"

"The talent you're showing now is quite impressive!"

Gu Yuan smiled slightly, then turned to look at Xiao Xuan and asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Xuan, your Xiao clan has finally produced a descendant with such talent—"

"But he's only a Dou Huang after all. Are you really going to take him into the Heavenly Tomb right now?"

"You know about that tomb too—"

Before Gu Yuan could finish speaking, Xiao Xuan interrupted, "That's for sure—"

"I am well aware of the dangers of the Heavenly Tomb, but with me going along, I have no fear—"

Seeing Xiao Xuan's resolute expression, Gu Yuan said nothing more, but simply nodded: "Since you've made up your mind, then come with me—"

After Gu Yuan finished speaking, he immediately waved his sleeve, and a golden light enveloped the three of them.

In the blink of an eye, the three of them arrived at the plaza outside the Heavenly Tomb.

Since it was not yet time for the Heavenly Tomb to open, there was no one in the Heavenly Tomb Square at this moment.

"Time flows six times faster inside the Heavenly Tomb than outside!"

"After all, the time for the Heavenly Tomb to open has not yet arrived, I can only buy you one month—"

Gu Yuan looked at the huge stone tablet at the entrance of the Heavenly Tomb and spoke in a deep voice.

"One month—"

"Half a year in the Heavenly Tomb is enough—"

Xiao Xuan nodded upon hearing this.

"Let's begin—"
