Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage, how is this possible?”

Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang’s faces drastically changed simultaneously as they both gasped in shock, because at this moment, Yun Xiao, who was unleashing the Ancestor Vein Power, had astonishingly elevated his realm by a whole level, reaching the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage.

The two geniuses had seen Yun Xiao outside the Refining Treasure Hall; at that time, Yun Xiao clearly was only at the Early Stage of the Origin Seeking Realm. It was obvious that he had experienced some fortuitous encounter after entering the Refining Treasure Hall, which allowed him to break through quickly.

Since that’s the case, Yun Xiao’s sudden breakthrough from the Origin Seeking Realm Middle Stage to the Late Stage after unleashing the Ancestor Vein Power seemed incredibly shocking.

”At least it’s a mid-level Earth Rank Ancestor Vein!”

Mo Qing and Liu Hanyi, who are familiar with Yun Xiao, were trapped within the mist at this moment, so Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang were both frightened by the scene before them. If they knew Yun Xiao actually had six Ancestor Veins, they wouldn’t know if their jaws would drop to the ground in shock.

No matter what, at this moment, Yun Xiao, after unleashing the Ancestor Vein Power, had already reached the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage. As he felt the Meridian Qi inside him, which was several times stronger than before, he couldn’t help but feel quite satisfied.

Whoosh!

Yun Xiao was not in the mood to care about those two’s shock. He extended his right hand, and a smear of blood-red flame quickly formed in the palm of his right hand. Then, his left hand also summoned an extreme Ice Cold Power.

”What’s he going to do?”

Due to the earlier shock of Yun Xiao’s Ancestor Vein Power, Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang were again somewhat puzzled when they saw Yun Xiao’s actions. But in the next moment, they saw Yun Xiao smash the two completely opposite forces from his hands together.

Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang were dissolving the mist’s attacks while closely watching Yun Xiao’s actions. In just a moment, they clearly saw in front of the young man in rough clothes, forming an Ice and Fire Giant Dragon several feet long.

This was naturally Yun Xiao’s once-invincible Ice and Fire Giant Dragon Meridian Technique, a powerful method comprehended from the Five Elements Ancestor Veins, containing not only ice and fire attributes.

Even Yun Xiao couldn’t control these two completely opposite attribute powers to a perfect state, requiring the three elements of wood, gold, and earth to harmonize to achieve a victorious effect.

At this moment, the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon Yun Xiao displayed was much stronger than when he was on the Hidden Dragon Continent or after finishing at the Spirit Fighting Commerce, and this could be considered the strongest method he could unleash.

In fact, inside Yun Xiao, there were two Divine Beasts, both reaching the Eighth Rank Advanced. Whether it’s the Golden Snake Worm Xiao Wu or the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix’s fledgling Red Feather, they could probably contend with this Ninth Rank Low Level Strange Spirit.

Moreover, if the Golden Snake Worm Xiao Wu borrowed Yun Xiao’s body to explode its power, directly breaking through to the Earth Concealing Realm level, it wouldn’t be impossible, but the cost would be too high.

With outsiders present, Yun Xiao didn’t want to expose his hidden and powerful trump cards. He wanted to test how strong his combat power could explode with just his inherent strength.

”Such a detestable aura!”

When Yun Xiao’s Ice and Fire Giant Dragon took shape, the Ninth Rank Low Level Fog Spirit turned its head directly. From its tone, it was as if one could see a smear of extreme disgust on its faceless face.

This Ninth Rank Low Level Fog Spirit was a leader among the Fog Spirits of Treasure Mountain, having only cultivated a sliver of Spiritual Wisdom after endless years of cultivation.

But the essence of all existence never strays from its core, everything on the Continent is inseparable from the Five Elements of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. Even this Fog Spirit, in essence, is a gaseous evolution of the Water Attribute, unable to escape the Great Dao of Five Elements.

Yun Xiao, relying on the Blood Moon Jade, a Divine Artifact from heaven and earth, cultivated the Five Elements Ancestor Veins Power, undoubtedly forming the foundation of all energy. The Five Elements Ice and Fire Giant Dragon unleashed through special methods would naturally make the Fog Spirit feel a sense of danger.

”Roar!”

The sound of a dragon’s roar emanated from the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon’s mouth, then its body flipped, swallowing the massive Fog Spirit into its belly with lightning speed.

”Is it... over?”

When Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang witnessed this scene, they felt their brains were not enough to comprehend it. That was a Ninth Rank Low Level Strange Spirit, yet how did Yun Xiao, after breaking through to the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage and unleashing a special Meridian Technique, swallow it completely, leaving no trace?

”It seems, it’s not that simple!”

Only Yun Xiao himself knew the battle wouldn’t end so quickly, sensing that the Fog Spirit swallowed into the dragon’s belly wasn’t assimilated by the energy of the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon. Instead, it stirred up a strong fluctuation inside the dragon’s belly.

This was entirely different from the effects Yun Xiao had experienced when previously unleashing the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon, after all, this was a Ninth Rank Low Level Strange Spirit, and he was merely at the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage.

If it were really that easy to handle, then one would truly underestimate these Strange Spirits who have painstakingly cultivated to such a degree.

Yet Yun Xiao isn’t entirely without a chance, as the Fog Spirit continued to stir within the belly of the Ice and Fire Dragon, his hand seal constantly transforming.

Then the power of the Five Elements Ancestor Veins within him began to flow incessantly into the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon, momentarily stalemating with the Fog Spirit.

Whew... Whew... Whew...

Under such circumstances, the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit naturally couldn’t worry about the outside anymore. After a series of transformations, the fog dispersed, revealing several gasping figures of men and women, namely Liu Hanyi, Mo Qing, and Si Mo.

As for Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang, they felt a sudden relief of pressure at this moment, as those relentless attacks emerging from the fog had dissipated entirely.

The entire world seemed to leave only the coarse-clothed youth and the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon not far ahead, rolling and roaring.

”What... what is going on?”

The most perplexed must be the second genius of the Sky Poison Institute, Si Mo. Although his eyes were blinded by the thick fog just now, he clearly heard Ye Ku’s loud shout, knowing that the three were jointly attacking the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit.

But when he regained his vision, the scene had changed to Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang watching from the sidelines, with the youth called Yun Xiao alone facing the Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit.

Moreover, the previously arrogant Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit had vanished, seemingly swallowed by the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon, making this last desperate struggle. How could Si Mo not be shocked by this?

Conversely, Liu Hanyi and Mo Qing felt a sense of familiarity when seeing the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon, knowing that back on the Hidden Dragon Continent, they had witnessed the majesty of the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon.

However, now everyone had advanced more than one Great Rank. Whether Yun Xiao’s Ice and Fire Giant Dragon could still cross ranks and deal with the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit was something that Liu Mo found uncertain.

”Roar! Roar!”

The raging aura from within seemed to have genuinely enraged the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon. At this moment, it seemed to have acquired its own dignity, a dignity absolutely forbidding provocation from a lowly Strange Spirit.

Swish!

The dragon roar kept emerging from the dragon mouth of the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon, while the next moment, Yun Xiao’s right hand involuntarily lifted, from whose palm crescent moon mark suddenly burst a blood-red light, directly striking into the body of the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon.

Boom!

When this blood-red light entered the dragon’s body, it seemed to become the last straw that broke the camel’s back, with everyone sensing the sudden surge of the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon’s aura, and the ceaselessly rolling dragon body abruptly steadied.

”The aura of the Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit seems to have vanished...”

Ye Ku murmured, while Bai Wushuang beside him wasn’t too elated, instead showing a touch of somberness, for at this moment, he suddenly realized how little he understood that coarse-clothed youth.

Bai Wushuang was extremely confident, believing with his Peak of Seeking Origin Realm cultivation, a newcomer like Yun Xiao couldn’t possibly be his match.

Yet Yun Xiao’s combat prowess during this period was overwhelmingly stunning, and he could still dismiss the prior half-step Ninth Rank Fog Spirit as cunning. But now the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon’s might left him with no argument to convince himself.

At least Bai Wushuang, in self-questioning, admitted he couldn’t possibly handle the Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit, likely ending in solo combat being devoured by the spirit.

By comparison, Bai Wushuang felt an impending loss of control over the upcoming annual competition, as Lianyun Mountain, once challenging only Ye Ku, now had Yun Xiao—a demon who defied conventions added to the mix.

This youth who had just joined Lianyun Mountain for less than a month displayed enough combat prowess to instill a hint of dread within Bai Wushuang and Ye Ku, the veteran geniuses of Lianyun Mountain, especially Bai Wushuang who had a notably poor relationship with Yun Xiao.

In contrast to Bai Wushuang, Yun Xiao himself couldn’t help but reveal an expression of joy, for he had just sensed the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon nearing its limits, but unexpectedly, with the force from his Blood Moon Jade, he secured victory.

Even Yun Xiao himself didn’t know the purpose of that touch of blood-red light; he only knew after that power was unleashed, no aura of the Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit remained within the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon’s stomach, clearly having been entirely devoured by it.

This also determined that the unprecedented battle atop Treasure Mountain officially concluded, though the most precious treasure on Treasure Mountain remained a mystery even to Yun Xiao at this moment.
