After emerging from seclusion, Xiao Xuanyuan went directly to his master, Nangong Wan, and told her about his recent need to enter the Divine Medicine Pavilion.

After hearing that Xiao Xuanyuan was going to enter the Divine Medicine Pavilion again, Nangong Wan's extremely beautiful face showed a hint of worry and doubt. "Husband, doesn't the Divine Medicine Pavilion restrict the cultivation level of those who enter? You've already reached the peak of the First-Rank Dou Zun, so you might not be able to get in, right?"

Xiao Xuanyuan naturally did not hide his true strength from his virtuous and kind wife. However, when Nangong Wan learned of his exact strength, she was extremely shocked. She never expected that her husband's strength was so terrifying!

The cultivation system of Dou Qi Continent requires crossing seven levels from Dou Qi to Dou Huang realm. Nangong Wan spent no less than twenty years to break through to Dou Huang realm.

But her husband, Xiao Xuanyuan, is only a few years old, just over sixteen, yet he has already almost surpassed the top experts in the entire Dou Qi Continent. There is a huge gap between her and Xiao Xuanyuan, spanning three major levels: Dou Zong, Dou Zun, and peak Dou Zun. This difference in strength is truly enormous! It makes her feel somewhat uneasy!

Upon seeing his wife Nangong Wan's ever-changing expression, as gloomy as a sky shrouded in dark clouds, Xiao Xuanyuan reached out and pulled her into his arms. He gently stroked her long black hair with his chin, his voice tender and full of affection.

"Master, even if I achieve the Dou Di realm in the future, I will never leave you, not even in death. You are my wife for a day, and for a lifetime!"

Finally, under Xiao Xuanyuan's tender affection, Nangong Wan's heart calmed down. She glared at him, annoyed, "You heartless bastard, you just said those words! Don't abandon me later and go off to find other women, becoming a frivolous and pleasure-seeking ghost!"

Xiao Xuanyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly. Only this master understood him and his temperament. But right now, he couldn't hurt her feelings. Lying to coax her was better than hurting Nangong Wanxin. "My dear master, I swear, I will never leave you for the rest of my life and will stay with you forever. If I break this vow, may I be struck by lightning. If I am fickle and philander, may I suffer a terrible fate."

Before he could utter the word "death," Nangong Wan suddenly reached out her slender hand and covered his mouth. "There's no need to say anything more. I don't want to be a widow."

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Things Have Changed, People Have Changed, and a Return to the Old Place

"My dear Master understands me best."

"what!

"

Just as Xiao Xuanyuan was about to say something sweet, a slender hand pinched the soft flesh on his waist hard!

The pain caused his face to contort and contort in agony.

My goodness, that's too cruel!

"You brat, if you go out and flirt with other pretty women again, you can forget about sleeping in my bed or speaking to me!"

After giving the brat a good pinch, Nangong Wan finally felt much better.

To be honest, although this brat makes me angry every day, it's really satisfying to beat him up, and it makes me feel incredibly good inside and out.

"Yes, yes, yes, how could I dare disobey my beloved Master's words? If you tell me to go east, I dare not go west; if you tell me to go north, I dare not go south. Your words are like imperial edicts, I dare not disobey, I dare not disobey."

Xiao Xuanyuan chuckled, his face full of flattery.

Nangong Wan gave him a look of disdain, as if to say, "If I believed you, I would be a complete idiot."

Upon seeing Nangong Wan, Xiao Xuanyuan was now ready to go all out. He puffed out his belly, adopted a righteous and awe-inspiring posture, and said fiercely, "Wife, if you don't believe me, keep pinching my soft flesh until you do!"

This guy was willing to go to any lengths to please his wife! He didn't fight back when hit, he didn't talk back when cursed, and he even offered himself up, letting Nangong Wan bully him.

Seeing Xiao Xuanyuan's attitude, Nangong Wan was also moved. Her heart, which had just hardened, softened again. Oh well, as long as this brat has her in his heart, that's enough. She couldn't be bothered to argue with him.

Thinking of this, Nangong Wan rolled her eyes, lightly punched his firm and reassuring chest a few times with her small fists, pressed her head against it, and said in a soft voice, "You little devil, I'm becoming more and more dependent on you."

Now, after Xiao Xuanyuan told his wife, Nangong Wan, that he was going to enter the Divine Medicine Pavilion, she was a little worried and didn't understand how Xiao Xuanyuan, with his current peak strength as a first-stage Dou Zun, could enter.

However, Xiao Xuanyuan had not yet told her that he had already advanced to the peak of the fifth-level Dou Zun.

Xiao Xuanyuan laughed and said, "I naturally have my own methods, Master, you can rest assured."

"Hmm." Nangong Wan nodded gently, her beautiful eyes looking at him with some concern. "How long are you planning to stay inside?"

"I can't be sure about that either. It could take a year or two at the shortest, but if it takes longer, it's hard to say," Xiao Xuanyuan answered truthfully.

"Oh, is that so? Then you—" At this point, Nangong Wan couldn't help but hug Xiao Xuanyuan's waist, pressing her head tightly against his chest, unwilling to let go, "We've only just gotten married, can you spend more time with me?"

Sensing Nangong Wan's deep attachment and reluctance to part, Xiao Xuanyuan felt a pang of sorrow. He tightly embraced her soft and graceful body with both hands, inhaling her fragrant scent. "To become stronger, only temporary separation can bring about a long and lasting relationship. I don't want that."

"The quota for entering the Divine Medicine Pavilion this month will not be opened for another two days. Husband, please stay with me a little longer." Nangong Wan couldn't help but let out a soft breath, slowly suppressing the lingering attachment and reluctance in her heart.

"Mm." Xiao Xuanyuan nodded gently, responding to his master's deep affection.

Humans are not plants or trees; how can they be without feelings? Moreover, Xiao Xuanyuan has always respected and loved this master deeply. He usually lets him hit and scold him without fighting back or talking back. Only when they are about to part can that inseparable affection truly be shown.

Now, Nangong Wan was torn, feeling reluctant to part, but since Xiao Xuanyuan had already made his decision, she couldn't say anything more.

Not only Nangong Wan, but all the women looked sullen when they learned that Xiao Xuanyuan was leaving. The lively spirit they usually displayed when they joked and chatted together had vanished, and their eyes were filled with the sorrow of parting.

In the past two days, Xiao Yu and more than ten other women have been wanting to come and chat with him and spend time with him all the time. Knowing that they don't know when they will see each other again, the women all seem to cherish this time.

Especially the women who had been intimate with Xiao Xuanyuan: his newlywed wife Nangong Wan, of course; Hua Xianzi and Zhao Zhilan who had Xiao Nianxiao; Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei; Princess Yaoye and Xiao Yixian who had already married into the family; and Liu Fei and Lan Yiyi—these nine women all particularly wanted Xiao Xuanyuan to spend time with them alone.

However, Xiao Xuanyuan only had one person, and he couldn't accompany everyone. In the end, he simply spent the night with Nangong Wan and the day with Hua Xianzi, Zhao Zhilan, and others. After two days of almost no sleep, he was nearly exhausted.

However, this guy's physical fitness is extraordinary. He had his body reshaped at the Divine Medicine Pavilion before, and now the Fallen Heart Flame is constantly forging his body and improving his physical strength.

After a short rest, he was full of energy again.

In the end, two days passed quickly. Xiao Xuanyuan bid farewell to the reluctant Flower Fairy and Zhao Zhilan and the other women, and then embarked on a journey with Nangong Wan to lead the top ten of this alchemist competition into the Divine Medicine Pavilion.

A small, flat-bottomed boat, just like it had been a year ago, was being steered and controlled by Nangong Wan, flying towards a waterfall cascading down and a towering mountain peak. However, after more than a year, Xiao Xuanyuan and Nangong Wan's relationship had changed from master and disciple to husband and wife, and the route to the Divine Medicine Pavilion remained the same as before.

Before the enormous flying leaf boat, Xiao Xuanyuan reached out and took Nangong Wan's slender hand, enjoying the rare breeze with her. The breeze brushed against their faces, making them feel cool and refreshed. However, Nangong Wan's mood remained unsettled. Her occasional glances at Xiao Xuanyuan were filled with a hint of reluctance, her gaze as gentle as water, inseparable from him.

Her only response was Xiao Xuanyuan holding her delicate hand tightly, which made Nangong Wan feel slightly more at ease.

The flying leaf boat flew to the top of the mountain. Following the rainbow that appeared in the sky above the huge waterfall, Nangong Wan stretched out her hands and formed a seal. She released a complicated hand seal, and the flying leaf boat flew through a curtain of water and entered a mountain cave.

Upon arriving here, a strange power emanated, suppressing the cultivators' soul perception and limiting it to a certain range. Xiao Xuanyuan's connection with Yao Lao inside the ring was immediately severed!

Xiao Xuanyuan was revisiting this place, so he was naturally aware of the strangeness of this mountain cave. However, more than a year ago, the child's strength had already leaped from the Dou Ling realm, and then passed through the Dou Wang realm, Dou Huang realm, Dou Zong realm, Dou Zun realm, and the peak Dou Zun realm, reaching the current peak of the fifth-level Dou Zun realm, a full leap of five major levels!

No one would believe such a terrifying speed of cultivation!

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Xiao Xuanyuan, Severely Injured

Although his current strength is at the peak of the fifth-level Dou Zun, for some reason, the suppressive force on his soul perception is still extremely strong.

Even now, Xiao Xuanyuan's strength is vastly different from before, yet he still cannot escape the complete suppression of his soul perception, which is truly strange.

Not only that, but powerful repulsive forces were constantly emanating from the entire cave, forming ripples that continuously squeezed and crushed Xiao Xuanyuan, seemingly trying to force him out of the cave. Moreover, as his strength increased, the squeezing force became even greater!

Nangong Wan was standing next to Xiao Xuanyuan, and she naturally sensed the extremely strong squeezing force from the cave. However, she possessed a special token that could reduce the intensity of this repulsive force.

"Husband, the rules here suppress and exclude cultivators above the Douling realm. Are you alright?"

Nangong Wan glanced at Xiao Xuanyuan with some worry, then quickly formed a hand seal and struck the void. A dark void vortex appeared in mid-air.

A powerful suction force emanated from it, as if it wanted to pull everyone present in.

"The entrance and exit of the Divine Medicine Pavilion are now open. You may enter. Remember, only by entering the central area will you be able to truly see the enormous Divine Medicine Pavilion!"

With a wave of her slender hand, Nangong Wan sent the ten alchemist disciples who were among the top ten in this alchemist competition into the dark void vortex.

"My husband, you..."

Nangong Wan looked back and saw that all the light shining around Xiao Xuanyuan had been distorted into a distorted lake, and his figure had turned into a distorted lake, seemingly being swallowed up by the spatial rules of the entire mountain cave.

At this moment, the entire cave had condensed into a massive force of rule compression, and Xiao Xuanyuan was like a conspicuous target, with countless invisible forces of rule constantly striking and sweeping across his body.

Xiao Xuanyuan was naturally unafraid of the spatial power within the cave. Now that he had advanced to the peak of the fifth-level Dou Zun, he had long since mastered the power of space. His body was like a black hole, constantly devouring the powerful space that was squeezing in from the surroundings.

"I'm fine!"

Xiao Xuanyuan reached out and made a grabbing motion, instantly shattering a piece of space in front of him and dissolving the power of that space. However, an even stronger force of rules continued to press in.

This made his figure even darker and more indistinct!

"My lord, please enter the void vortex gate quickly, I can hardly control myself!"

Nangong Wan's anxious voice rang out, and the dark entrance to the void vortex was already shaking and collapsing, about to disappear completely.

Xiao Xuanyuan nodded and laboriously walked towards the void vortex in mid-air. With each step, it felt as if millions of pounds of force were pressing down on him, making it extremely difficult. This was caused by the restrictive rules of the mountain cave.

Even though Xiao Xuanyuan wanted to use his powerful martial force to destroy the surrounding spatial rules, with his movements, once the void was repaired, the powerful void force increased several times over and crushed him. When Xiao Xuanyuan struck again and shattered it, the even stronger void force increased several times over.

Sensing that the void power around him was getting stronger and stronger, and was almost reaching the limit he could bear, Xiao Xuanyuan frowned. After taking only two steps, he felt as if he was carrying four or five high mountains on his back, and he almost vomited blood from exhaustion!

This is truly a bizarre spatial power!

There was no other way. Having reached this point, Xiao Xuanyuan had already sensed the strangeness of this place and dared not weaken the infinite suppression of the surrounding spatial rules. He could only take difficult steps towards the constantly collapsing void vortex gate.

Three steps, four steps, five steps

Deep footprints appeared beneath Xiao Xuanyuan's feet, sinking to about four feet deep and extending towards the void vortex gate in the air above!

Now, Xiao Xuanyuan, who felt as if he were carrying five enormous mountains on his back, was so exhausted that his forehead was covered in beads of sweat, his breathing was heavy, and he was panting like a bull. His internal fire fighting energy was being consumed continuously, and in a short period of time, he had consumed as much as 40% of it. This showed how terrifying the power of the compressed spatial rules was!

"Husband! Hurry!"

Nangong Wan's fighting spirit was also being rapidly depleted. Large beads of sweat spilled from her extremely beautiful face, sliding down her angelic cheeks. Her delicate body trembled slightly, as if she had reached a state close to her limit.

Seeing Nangong Wan's hard work, Xiao Xuanyuan gritted his teeth, and countless surging fire fighting qi within his body rolled and condensed, almost instantly unleashing a sky full of fist shadows. The first six moves of the Mighty Sky-Supporting Fist were instantly condensed together, and a black hole fist light swept out with a domineering heavy punch, shattering all the terrifying void rule power that was squeezing in along the way, tearing out a huge void hole.

Taking advantage of the brief moment of space repair, amidst a flash of golden light, Xiao Xuanyuan moved with lightning speed, disappearing into the void vortex gate in the sky ahead, which was about to completely collapse.

Almost the instant Xiao Xuanyuan's figure passed through, the entire void vortex gate collapsed instantly, turning into nothingness and restoring the original tranquility of the mountain cave.

Almost simultaneously, Nangong Wan couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, which struck a rock wall inside the cave. Her face immediately turned pale and listless.

She gazed wearily at the vanished void vortex gate, a hint of worry in her beautiful eyes. "My husband, it's up to you now. I hope you can return soon to reunite with me."

Above a mountain stream in the Void Realm, a trembling Void Vortex Gate suddenly appeared. After throwing out a figure, it instantly disintegrated, leaving only a head-down figure falling into the void. In mid-air, it opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, its face deathly pale.

Looking at that handsome and pleasing face, this person is none other than Xiao Xuanyuan.

When Xiao Xuanyuan passed through the Void Vortex Gate, even though he used the Six Harmonies Eight Desolations Fist, a fist technique that was infinitely close to the Heavenly Rank, he still suffered a backlash from the spatial rules of the cave when he briefly blasted a path through it. In addition, after passing through the Void Vortex Gate, he was caught off guard and was hit in the back by the Void Hurricane and Void Turbulence, which caused him to suffer a serious injury.

Having temporarily lost consciousness, Xiao Xuanyuan crashed heavily into the waterfall below the cliff, creating a huge splash before sinking to the bottom of the river and drifting away with the current.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Sixth Layer of Shadow - Xiao Xuanyuan's Terror

Boom!

Splash!

The thunderous roar of the mountain waterfall crashing down from the sky echoed, interspersed with the clear, melodious sound of the flowing river. The two sounds blended together and resonated throughout the area.
