Starting with the Sword Ancestor System: Xiao Yan, Your Harem is Mine!

250: Set sailAt the peak of the Myriad Medicine Mountain Range in the Medicine World.

Li Ao, Xiao Yi Xian, and Medusa stood shoulder to shoulder, their robes fluttering in the fierce mountain wind. Below them were the sprawling halls of the Medicine Clan and the swirling medicinal fragrance mist, while in the distance lay the direction of the Medicine World’s exit.

Xiao Yi Xian gently moved her wrists, feeling the immense and boundless Peak Dou Zun power within her that she could command perfectly, along with the gentle yet mighty Chaos Poison Body Origin hidden deep within her Bloodline. She took a deep breath of the air unique to the Medicine World, which contained pure life energy. Her exquisite face shone with the radiance of rebirth, and her eyes, no longer holding the melancholy and burden of the past, became bright and resolute.

”This Physical Body... is even more perfect than I imagined,” she whispered, a hint of astonishment in her tone. The effects of the ninth-grade bodhi great reversion pill were truly Heaven-Defying; it not only reshaped her Physical Body and reformed her Soul but also pushed her Aptitude to an unprecedented Peak.

Medusa glanced at her, her cool voice carrying a trace of imperceptible concern: ”The Chaos Poison Body is extremely profound. You still need to diligently Cultivate to fully control it and make it your own.”

Xiao Yi Xian nodded and said seriously, ”Don’t worry, Sister Medusa, I understand.” She knew how hard-won this power was and the responsibility it carried.

Li Ao stood in front of the two women, gazing into the distance, his eyes deep. He rubbed the ancient ”Guest Elder Grand Elder Token” in his hand. The token felt warm and smooth to the touch, subtly connecting with the ambient energy of the entire Medicine World. This authority represented the friendship and support of the Medicine Clan, but also signified heavier responsibility.

”The Medicine Clan is temporarily safe. With the Medicine Ancestor presiding, the Hall of Souls will not dare to openly invade again in the short term,” Li Ao said slowly, analyzing the current situation. ”But after we leave, Central State will likely be turbulent.”

Although his aura was largely isolated by layers of Restriction when he advanced to Half-Saint inside the Medicine World, the momentary fluctuation of the laws of heaven and earth, along with the subsequent phenomena that could not be completely hidden when refining the Ninth Grade Pill and resurrecting Xiao Yi Xian, had likely already attracted the attention of some top forces in Central State. Furthermore, the Hall of Souls, having lost one Dou Saint and several Elder Zun in the Nirvana Illusionary Domain, would certainly not let the matter rest.

”What is the current status of your ’Void Hall’?” Medusa asked. She knew Li Ao had begun integrating Central State forces before entering the Medicine World.

Li Ao frowned slightly, sensing the sporadic information coming through the Medicine Clan’s intelligence network via the Elder Token: ”Senior Xuan Kongzi is managing it on my behalf. Relying on the Pill Tower, the preliminary framework is established and has attracted some Loose Cultivators and small forces. However, lacking a top-tier expert to preside over it, its development is limited, and moreover... it seems to be secretly suppressed and infiltrated by the Hall of Souls forces.”

Without the deterrence of a Half-Saint or even Dou Saint level expert, it would be extremely difficult for a nascent force to gain a foothold in Central State, especially under the hostility of the Hall of Souls.

”Then should we return to Central State immediately?” Xiao Yi Xian looked at Li Ao, her eyes showing no fear, only the determination to fight alongside him. After her rebirth, she longed to help him.

Li Ao shook his head, a flash of wisdom crossing his eyes: ”No rush. Since the Hall of Souls is acting in secret, we cannot directly confront them. Furthermore, we need some ’helpers’.”

With a thought, his Divine Sense sank into the Grand Elder Token in his hand. The token not only represented authority but was also a hub connecting to the Medicine Clan’s vast internal resource database and information network.

Soon, several pieces of information were filtered out:

· First: There has been unusual activity recently in the Medicine Clan’s affiliated space, the Hundred Beasts Plain. It is suspected that traces of a Bloodline descendant left behind by the Void Ancient Dragon have appeared. Its aura is pure, and its potential is immense. (Attachment: Approximate coordinates)

· Second: Rumors indicate an unusually powerful flame energy fluctuation recently in the direction of the Northwest Continent, suspected to be the emergence of an unknown Heavenly Flame or an ancient fire Dao Legacy, drawing widespread attention. (Attachment: Vague area description)

· Third: According to news returned by Medicine Clan external spies, a young Dou Huang carrying a xuan heavy ruler and using flame Dou Qi was seen in the Northern Region of Central State. His fighting style and potential are quite extraordinary. (Suspected: Xiao Yan’s whereabouts)

Li Ao’s gaze lingered on these pieces of information for a moment, and he already had a plan in mind.

The Void Ancient Dragon is the Supreme existence of the Demonic Beast world. If he could subdue its Bloodline descendant, it would be a great help, both for him personally and for the ”Void Hall.” Furthermore, a powerful Heavenly Flame or fire Dao Legacy could not only enhance his strength but might also be beneficial for repairing the nirvana ancient talisman and even constructing the bridge of the other shore in the future.

As for Xiao Yan... if he could form a good relationship with this Child of Luck from the original story early on, he might gain a powerful ally in the ultimate battle against the Hun Clan in the future.

”We won’t return to the core region of Central State yet,” Li Ao decided. ”We’ll go check out these places.”

He pointed to the Hundred Beasts Plain and the vague area in the Northwest Continent mentioned in the information.

”Searching for an Ancient Dragon descendant and a Heavenly Flame?” Medusa instantly understood his intention, and a hint of interest flashed in her serpentine pupils. The Void Ancient Dragon Clan was attractive even to her, who was already a Peak Dou Zun. Powerful flames were also necessary for her evolution.

Xiao Yi Xian also nodded in agreement, giving her unconditional support to Li Ao’s decision.

”Yes,” Li Ao put away the token, his eyes sharp. ”Before formally engaging in an all-out war with the Hall of Souls, we need to accumulate more strength and secure more allies. At the same time...” He paused, feeling the nirvana ancient talisman in his body that was slowly repairing itself, ”we also need to find an Opportunity that can accelerate its recovery.”

He had a premonition that a complete nirvana ancient talisman would be the key to dealing with Hun Tiandi and even exploring the Guiding Ancient Palace in the future.

The three stopped delaying. Li Ao held the Grand Elder Token and gently slashed the Void Realm in front of him. A stable spatial tunnel, leading to a designated direction outside the Medicine World, slowly took shape. Having reached the Half-Saint realm, long-distance spatial traversing was no longer difficult.

”Let’s go.”

Li Ao stepped into the spatial tunnel first, followed closely by Xiao Yi Xian and Medusa.

The tunnel slowly closed, leaving only the sound of the wind whistling on the mountain Peak. The trip to the Medicine Clan yielded huge gains, but the path ahead was still long and full of challenges. A new journey had begun, aiming straight for the Opportunities and storms hidden across the continent!
