Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

Chapter 542 Xiao Yang's Purpose

The ancient clan members were not in a hurry to talk to Xiao Yang.

Anyway, this time it was Xiao Yang who came on his own initiative.

Furthermore, with such a powerful figure arriving at the ancient clan, they also need to treat him with the utmost hospitality.

For these ancient tribes, this is a matter of face.

After showing Xiao Yang around the ancient realm, the ancient clan prepared a grand banquet for him.

It can be said that every dish at the banquet was no less than a sixth- or even seventh-grade elixir.

Any one of these dishes would be a treasure that would make countless powerful people envious if placed in the outside world.

After the banquet, Gu Dao and Xun'er led Xiao Yang to the guest room.

After all, the two of them were quite familiar with Xiao Yang.

After leading Xiao Yang to the guest room, Xun'er did not leave immediately, but looked at Xiao Yang with some anticipation and asked.

"Cousin Xiao Yang, how is Brother Xiao Yan doing lately?"

The ancient road was also nearby at this time.

However, he kept his eyes down and pretended not to hear anything.

He also knew of Xiao Yan's existence.

Although Xiao Yang was very dazzling, he still couldn't completely overshadow Xiao Yan's brilliance.

Compared to the original novel, Xiao Yan progresses much faster.

Moreover, with Xiao Yang's support, he also has countless medicinal herbs that he can use to practice his alchemy skills.

Therefore, his alchemy skills are not bad now.

Xiao Yan is now able to refine some Rank 8 pills.

Keep in mind that Xiao Yan was only around twenty years old.

Although Xiao Yang was a shining example, Xiao Yan, who became an eighth-grade alchemist at the age of twenty, was still dazzling.

Because of Xiao Yang, many people have even noticed Xiao Yan's existence.

This is still under the condition that very few people outside know Xiao Yan's current strength.

If they knew that Xiao Yan was now also a half-saint, they would probably be even more shocked.

After all, the difference between a Dou Zun and a Ban Sheng is enormous.

Xiao Yan only broke through to the Half-Saint realm a few months ago.

During this period, he didn't have many opportunities to make a move and spent most of his time practicing alchemy.

After all, with the medicinal power of the Bodhi Great Rejuvenation Pill, he didn't need to cultivate much before reaching the Dou Sheng level.

So he planned to take advantage of this time to quickly improve his alchemy skills.

He had a ninth-grade alchemist as his teacher, and his cousin's alchemy skills were recognized as the best on the continent, making him the only ninth-grade Golden Core Grandmaster in thousands of years.

Xiao Yan felt that his alchemy skills couldn't be too bad, otherwise he wouldn't dare to call himself an alchemist.

On the few occasions he did make a move, it was to block Dan Lei.

However, the pill lightning of an eighth-grade pill is not very strong, so at most we can only know that Xiao Yan is at least a Dou Zun.

Xiao Yang didn't hide anything from Xun'er.

"He's doing very well."

"He has been improving his alchemy skills recently, and he is now an eighth-grade alchemist."

"With my and Elder Yao's guidance, given his talent, he will likely become a ninth-grade alchemist very soon."

"Not only that, but because of the pills I gave him, his cultivation level has also reached the level of a half-saint."

"I estimate that he will have no problem breaking through to the Dou Sheng level within two years, or even one year."

At this point, a teasing smile flashed across Xiao Yang's face.

"Then your brother Xiao Yan can openly and legitimately propose marriage to the ancient clan."

Upon hearing this, Xun'er blushed.

"Cousin Xiao Yang, what are you saying?!"

The ancient road beside it still looks up at the sky, as if the night in the ancient world is very beautiful.

However, he was also filled with shock at this moment.

He never expected that Xiao Yan had already reached the level of a half-saint!

It's important to understand that there's a difference between a Half-Saint and a Battle Venerable.

The chances of a half-saint breaking through to a battle saint are still quite high.

Moreover, Xiao Yan is still so young, he will almost certainly become a Dou Sheng!

Although Xiao Yang is a Grandmaster of the Ninth Grade Golden Core, his only Ninth Grade Golden Core was only refined a month ago.

Previously, even though Xiao Yan broke through using a ninth-grade pill refined by Xiao Yang, it was already quite remarkable.

Gu Dao knew that even with the help of ninth-grade pills, many peak Dou Zun experts could not break through to the Half-Saint level.

Although the word "half" appears in the title, the word "saint" is actually the key point.

A demigod is already a being who has transcended the ordinary and entered sainthood!

Compared to the Dou Zun, the Half-Saint has already begun to transform.

That's why the level of "half-saint" has stumped so many brilliant and talented individuals.

Being able to break through with the help of elixirs is itself a form of strength.

Do you really think the ancient clans don't have ninth-grade alchemists?

Moreover, given Xiao Yan's age, he has already reached the level of a half-saint, and he may even become a late-stage Dou Sheng in the future!

Such talent is unmatched among the younger generation of the ancient clan!

Even Xun'er is no match for Xiao Yan now!

Gu Dao hadn't forgotten that behind Xiao Yan was Xiao Yang, the only ninth-grade Golden Core Grandmaster on the continent!

With Xiao Yang's support, Xiao Yan's cultivation path was even smoother and wider than that of the ancient clan's geniuses!

Moreover, Xun'er herself holds a very high position in the ancient clan.

This is the only person in the ancient clan in the past thousand years who has the potential to reach the level of a nine-star Dou Sheng!

With Xun'er's future strength, Gu Yuan's support, and Xiao Yan's backing by Xiao Yang, she'll be able to achieve great things.

Compared to the original story, the obstacles for the two to be together are far fewer!

"If you want to ask him, just use your communication token."

As he spoke, Xiao Yang tossed Xun'er a new communication token.

The original communication token was one he had crafted before.

If you're in the Ancient Realm, it's quite difficult to contact the outside world, especially if the Gate to the Ancient Realm is closed.

However, the one that Xiao Yang just refined doesn't have this problem.

After explaining the function of the communication token to Xun'er, Xun'er was overjoyed.

"Thank you so much, Cousin Xiao Yang!"

At this moment, Xun'er's eyes were filled with gratitude.

With the new token, Xun'er quickly bid farewell to Xiao Yang.

The two of them shouldn't stay too long.

Soon, the night was over.

The next morning, Xiao Yang was also invited to Gu Yuan's study.

"How did Chief Xiao rest last night?"

Gu Yuan looked at Xiao Yang and said gently.

"Very good, the environment in the ancient realm is quite good."

Xiao Yang replied politely.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan nodded, a serious look flashing across his face.

He didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"I heard from Elder Gu Dao that Clan Chief Xiao has something to discuss with me this time. I wonder what it is?"

Xiao Yang didn't hide anything and spoke directly.

"Clan Chief Gu, I have only one purpose in coming here this time."

"I want to enter the Heavenly Tomb to see my ancestor, Xiao Xuan."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan fell silent.

Contrary to speculations by other factions that the Xiao clan still had remnants, this was not the case.

Gu Yuan was very clear about this.

He knew that there were no remnants of the Xiao clan.

The Xiao family has become a clan in a small town in the Northwest Continent.

At that time, the strongest was only a Great Battle Master!

Any random descendant family of the ancient clan might be more powerful than the Xiao family back then.

The Xiao family has reached its current level entirely thanks to this young man in front of us, who is around twenty years old!
