131: Xuan Yi shows his talent, the ancient tribe's coming-of-age ceremony

The hundred-zhang-long blade swung, yet there was no sense of slowness; instead, it instantly pierced through Huang Tian's body.

The giant Heavenly Phoenix body immediately split into two, falling backward past Zi Yan's body.

Bang!

The fall of the massive corpse signaled that the legend of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix was about to be obliterated into the dust of history!

...Perhaps, it's not over yet!

Somewhere in the Beast Region, Nine Phoenix felt the waves emanating from the 棲梧 Phoenix Nest, his mind shaken, his heart filled with hatred like a colossal tsunami.

However, being only a Nine-Revolving Dou Zun at present, he was clearly not qualified to seek revenge on Xiao Lei. He needed to wait for an opportunity... And within the 棲梧 Phoenix Nest, Xiao Lei and the others had already begun to process the spoils of war.

"Perhaps the Purple Thunder Pavilion's offensive was too swift; Huang Tian didn't have time to absorb all the essence blood. Now it's all yours, and this Dragon Phoenix remnant as well. Absorbing the blood essence within it might allow your Cultivation to advance further!"

The Purple Thunder Pavilion's actions this time were undoubtedly a huge success. Eliminating the Heavenly Demon Phoenix and unifying the Beast Region, the various benefits of this would continuously emerge in the future.

And before them was an immediate, enormous reward!

"Take this Medicinal Pill, and then begin absorbing the Heavenly Phoenix Blood Pool!"

Zi Yan possesses the Dragon Phoenix Bloodline, and the Dragon Phoenix Bloodline is essentially a Fusion of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix and Void Ancient Dragon Bloodlines. Zi Yan can, of course, absorb the essence blood of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, and not only absorb energy, but also strengthen the purity of her Bloodline!

And what Xiao Lei held in his hand was naturally the Lightning Tribulation Pill!

It was a golden ball of light the size of a fist, with a golden Dragon swimming on its body, exceptionally divine.

"Medicinal Pills to eat!"

The next moment, the gluttonous Zi Yan immediately swallowed the Medicinal Pill whole.

"Ugh!"

After swallowing the Medicinal Pill, even Zi Yan, who was a Six-Star Dou Sheng Late Stage, felt a swelling sensation in her body, with immense energy filling every inch of her flesh.

Zi Yan hurriedly entered the blood pool, simultaneously activating the Three Thousand Burning Flame sub-flame to begin refining the energy.

Zi Yan remained in the 棲梧 Phoenix Nest to Cultivate, while Xiao Lei led Xiao Yi Xian and the two others, along with the Purple Thunder Pavilion Elders and Disciples, back.

With the great battle concluded, Xiao Lei inevitably had to give another speech. He casually tossed the Medicinal Pills, obtained from the Medicinal Pill rain during the refining of the Lightning Tribulation Pill, to the Purple Thunder Pavilion's Disciples and Elders, and his speech once again received full praise from everyone.

Every Nine-Rank Profound Pill appearing would trigger a Medicinal Pill rain. However, calling it rain was an imaginative description; in essence, it was many Medicinal Pills rich in energy. They couldn't be considered true Medicinal Pills, but their effects far surpassed ordinary Medicinal Pills.

After completing everything, Xiao Lei received an invitation from Venerable Skyfire for the Ancient Clan's coming-of-age ceremony.

Ancient Clan invitations have always been given to influential forces in the Central Plains, and the Purple Thunder Pavilion, a force with many Dou Sheng powerhouses, naturally wouldn't be overlooked.

Xiao Yi Xian frowned deeply, lowered her head for a long time, and then slowly spoke, "The Ancient Clan has been looking for you before. If you go voluntarily, wouldn't that be playing into their hands, and the danger involved..."

Xiao Lei seemed indifferent, meticulously fiddling with his long blade, finding it more pleasing the more he looked at it. He casually said, "That was then, this is now. Back then, my strength wasn't enough, and the Ancient Clan thought the ancient jade was on me, so they searched for me everywhere. But now I am already a Six-Star Dou Sheng Late Stage, not to mention such a major event just happened in the Imperial Clan. The Ancient Clan wouldn't... and wouldn't dare to make a move!"

The Ancient Clan was typically bullying the weak and fearing the strong. In front of all the current Imperial Clans, the Ancient Clan would absolutely not dare to act.

At the same time, Xiao Lei could almost certainly conclude that the Hun Clan would undoubtedly seize the opportunity of the Ancient Clan's coming-of-age ceremony to strike again and destroy the Stone Clan.

Of course, there was another reason for Xiao Lei to go, and that was naturally to "eat a buffet"; many handsome men and beautiful women with different flames would appear at the coming-of-age ceremony.

Xiao Xun'er, who possessed the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, was also among them.

"Exactly, what about the Ancient Clan! The Purple Thunder Pavilion's strength is now no weaker than some Imperial Clans. If the Ancient Clan were to make a move against the Purple Thunder Pavilion during such a sensitive period, wouldn't it deepen the suspicions of the other Imperial Clans towards them?"

Medusa was forced to break through earlier and then re-entered seclusion for half a month, having already reached the Realm of a Six-Star Dou Sheng. Among the Imperial Clans, excluding the Soul and Ancient Clans, she could be considered a top-tier powerhouse.

As for Xiao Lei, after the Nine Profound Golden Lightning absorbed the thundercloud, his Cultivation reached the Seven-Star Dou Sheng Middle Stage, and Xiao Lei was naturally the same.

Frankly speaking, the current Purple Thunder Pavilion had already surpassed the Medicine Clan's apparent combat strength.

"Before that, there's one more thing that needs to be done..."

Xiao Yi Xian's and Qing Lin's combat strength was already falling behind. Xiao Lei currently had no solution for Qing Lin, but Xiao Yi Xian was different.

Don't forget that Xiao Lei had scammed quite a few poisonous materials out of the Stone Realm!

"Xiao Yi Xian, come with me!"

Saying this, Xiao Lei took Xiao Yi Xian's jade hand and walked towards the back of Phoenix Perch Mountain, which immediately made the latter somewhat shy.

She wondered why Xiao Lei was making it so exciting!

Seeing this, Medusa quickly spoke up, "Hey Xiao Lei, I want to go to the Ancient Clan's trip too!"

Xiao Lei just replied distractedly, "We'll talk about it then. There's still half a year, no rush!"

This immediately made Medusa stomp her feet in anger, cursing Xiao Lei in her heart.

Excitedly following Xiao Lei to a secluded spot behind Phoenix Perch Mountain, Xiao Yi Xian's face was already flushed, and she stammered, "Is it okay here?"

This made Xiao Lei a bit confused. Looking at her, he thought, why such a big reaction for refining a Medicinal Pill?

But he still explained seriously, "The refining process of a Nine-Rank Profound Pill requires absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, so outdoors is naturally the most suitable place."

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian, who was still fantasizing about some special scenarios, finally came back to her senses, and at the same time, was a little stunned.

Alchemy, and a Nine-Rank Profound Pill!

But what did that have to do with her?

What Xiao Lei was going to refine would naturally not be an ordinary Medicinal Pill, or rather, this couldn't even be considered ordinary Alchemy.

It was... Spirit Ascension!

Which was the method of Ascension Refining, using poisonous and medicinal materials to directly refine the Poison Pill, which condensed Xiao Yi Xian's poisonous Qi, to a higher Rank, thereby achieving the goal of rapidly increasing Xiao Yi Xian's Cultivation.

After the Poison Pill was condensed, Xiao Yi Xian's Netherworld Poison Flame underwent a peculiar change with the Poison Pill, causing the Poison Pill to give birth to a Medicinal Beast, possessing the potential for infinite evolution. It then gradually grew, and recently had reached the threshold of a Profound Pill, giving Xiao Yi Xian the Cultivation of a Four-Star Dou Sheng Early Stage.

After hearing Xiao Lei's theory, Xiao Yi Xian was also somewhat speechless, exclaiming how miraculous it was... The refining of a Nine-Rank Profound Pill, from the very beginning, took a month. Finally, accompanied by a violent thundercloud rolling, a Medicinal Pill rain fell, and Xiao Yi Xian's Cultivation directly soared to a Six-Star Dou Sheng Late Stage.

How vast and majestic was the aura of a Nine-Rank Profound Pill's refining! Almost all forces on the Central Plains felt this powerful aura, yet the Central Plains was eerily silent.

The demise of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, coupled with the shock of the Nine-Rank Profound Pill, meant that all forces on the Central Plains were no longer willing to provoke the Purple Thunder Pavilion.

And finally, just as they were about to head to the Ancient Clan, Zi Yan barely managed to break through her seclusion and joined the team heading to the Ancient Clan!
