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

Chapter 56 Eight-Star Dou Zun, So Miserable

Seeing Xiao Xuan casually break through the restriction set up by the Dou Zun expert, they were amazed.

Xiao Yi couldn't help but gasp.

So this was a half-step Dou Di in his previous life, and now even a wisp of his remnant soul possesses such strength.

"Judging from the lingering aura on this barrier, the owner of this tomb must have been an eight-star Dou Zun in life—"

"An eight-star Dou Zun probably wouldn't leave behind anything of value—"

"Since we're already here, let's take a look—"

Xiao Xuan spoke softly.

Xiao Yi nodded upon hearing this.

He took a deep breath and then slowly stepped into the magical ruins of the Battle Venerable.

According to Xiao Yi's thinking, when a powerhouse of the level of an eight-star Dou Zun falls, he will definitely take all the fighting skills, cultivation techniques and so on he has accumulated throughout his life to the grave with him.

Therefore, Xiao Yi felt that there must be a great opportunity within these ruins.

As soon as Xiao Yi stepped into the cemetery, a smell mixed with dust and the passage of time immediately hit him.

Xiao Xuan gently lifted his finger, and a ball of red battle qi slowly rose into the air, emitting light that completely illuminated the entire cemetery.

In an instant, the shattered jade mountain and the rusted teacup fragments in the cemetery were revealed.

"Is this eight-star Dou Zun really that pitiful—"

"If my ancestor hadn't said he was an eight-star Dou Zun, I would have thought this tomb belonged to just a Dou Huang—"

Xiao Yi frowned, glanced around, and found that it wasn't what he had imagined. He couldn't help but complain.

However, despite saying this, Xiao Yi did not stop walking.

Seeing that there seemed to be nothing of value around the tomb, Xiao Yi turned his attention to the huge stone coffin in the center of the tomb.

Because in Xiao Yi's view, this was the last chance.

If there's still nothing good inside the stone coffin, then the owner of this tomb must have been the poorest Dou Zun in history—

However, just as Xiao Yi took a step forward, a powerful azure battle qi surged from the stone coffin. If Xiao Xuan hadn't intervened in time, Xiao Yi would probably have perished on the spot.

"The owner of this tomb was very meticulous—"

"Even in death, a layer of battle aura was still planted on his stone coffin—"

Xiao Xuan spoke in a deep voice, then smiled and looked at Xiao Yi: "What's wrong, little guy? You're already scared?"

Xiao Yi shook his head: "No, it's just that this battle qi came rather suddenly—"

"Fortunately, our ancestor intervened—"

Xiao Xuan nodded, and then he waved his hand slightly. The familiar red aura surged out again, easily breaking the battle qi restriction set on the stone coffin.

"Go on, little one—"

"The sarcophagus is safe now—"

"Go see if there's any opportunity that comes to mind—"

Xiao Xuan smiled and spoke softly.

Xiao Yi nodded and walked towards the stone coffin again.

Because Xiao Xuan broke the seal on the stone coffin, Xiao Yi didn't have to expend too much effort.

They opened the stone coffin with great ease.

The moment it was opened, countless specks of dust rose up. Xiao Yi waved his sleeve and swept the dust away.

Only then did they see that the remains of the Dou Zun expert in the stone coffin had turned into a skeleton due to the passage of time and lack of proper preservation.

Xiao Yi casually pried open the bones, searching for something.

This eight-star Dou Zun probably never imagined that a hundred years after his death, a half-step Dou Di powerhouse would lead a young boy to dig up his grave.

"Indeed, how could an eight-star Dou Zun expert not have any treasures to accompany him in death?"

Xiao Yi slowly took out a black scroll and a brocade box sealed with cyan battle qi from the stone coffin.

Looking at Xiao Yi's "pathetic" appearance, Xiao Xuan shook his head helplessly.

As a top expert from a thousand years ago, Xiao Xuan would never be willing to do something like grave robbing.

But unexpectedly, a thousand years later, Xiao Xuan still did it for the sake of his clan's descendants.

Xiao Yi couldn't wait to open the black scroll.

The moment the scroll opened, a dazzling light shone forth.

[Mid-Tier Earth-Rank Combat Skill: Myriad Forms Returning to Flow Finger]

[When unleashing this technique, one must circulate their internal battle qi, converging it at the tip of the index finger like rivers flowing into the sea! A single finger strike can shake the heavens and the earth!]

This fighting technique consists of two forms: the first is "Hundred Rivers Converging into the Sea," and the second is "Returning to the Flow and Sealing!"

Although this combat technique is only a mid-level Earth-rank technique, it is incredibly powerful and easy to cultivate; one only needs to reach the Dou Ling realm to practice it.

Looking at the information displayed on the black scroll, Xiao Yi's upturned lips never left his mouth.

A mid-level Earth-rank combat skill is a level higher than the low-level Earth-rank skill that Xiao Xuan gave him!

"Ancestor, a mid-level Earth-rank combat skill!"

"I knew a Dou Zun expert like me wouldn't have some hidden treasures!"

Xiao Yi looked at Xiao Xuan with great excitement and shared his thoughts.

Xiao Xuan shook his head helplessly: "It's just a mid-level Earth-rank Dou Technique. When you advance to Dou Zun, you'll master the entire Dragon Abyss Sky-Breaking Technique I gave you before—"

"I also have intermediate-level Heaven-rank combat techniques to impart to you—"

Xiao Yi stood up instantly: "Mid-level Heaven Rank!"

"A Dou Zun! That's still a long way off—"

Thinking that he was only a Dou Shi and still a long way from Dou Zun, Xiao Yi couldn't help but shake his head.

Why not quickly improve your strength, reach the Dou Ling level, and cultivate the Myriad Manifestations Returning to Flow Finger technique in your hand!

It's at least a mid-level Earth Rank fighting skill!

In Xiao Yi's view, the more combat skills one has, whether they are Heaven-rank or Earth-rank, the better!

Xiao Yi carefully put the black scroll into his storage ring, and then examined the brocade box in his hand that was sealed by battle qi.

Because it was a Dou Qi seal personally set up by an Eight-Star Dou Zun, Xiao Yi currently does not have the strength to open it.

So Xiao Yi slowly looked at Xiao Xuan again, his face full of seeking help.

"Little one! Train hard and get stronger quickly—"

Xiao Xuan murmured softly, his body language mirroring his words.

Xiao Xuan lightly touched the brocade box that was sealed by Dou Qi with his fingertip.

The next second, the cyan battle aura vanished instantly.

Xiao Yi then opened it with great ease.

As soon as the brocade box was opened, a refreshing fragrance wafted out.

Upon closer inspection, the fragrant substance turned out to be a bead emitting a red glow.

It looks somewhat like the inner core of a Warcraft creature.

The bead is light red all over, and its interior seems to have a flowing, shimmering light.

"This is?"

Xiao Yi had never seen anything like it before, so he couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

Xiao Xuan merely glanced at it before softly asking, "The inner core of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi was slightly taken aback: "The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast?"

If Xiao Yi remembered correctly, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast race of magical beasts seemed to possess a trace of the bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon—

They can be considered a remarkable magical beast race.

Xiao Xuan gently lifted his fingertip and drew the bead to his front for a careful examination.

Then a slight smile appeared on his lips: "Little one—"

"Looks like you're really lucky—"
