A hundred cycles of Reincarnation, realizing one's true nature!

When one's thoughts are clear, the path of Cultivation flows unimpeded.

About a month later, the figure who had been sitting cross-legged beneath the ancient tree for a long time suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp gaze shot out, chilling everyone present to the bone, as if their Bloodline had been frozen.

Gu Qingyang's heart was heavy, and he gritted his teeth, "What Realm has he reached now?"

He had once felt Gu Yuan's aura, but now, he could confirm that Xiao Lei, just from his aura, had already surpassed Gu Yuan.

And this Soul was even more majestic and vast; compared to it, it seemed even Gu Yuan's Emperor Realm Soul was inferior.

There are also differences within the Emperor Realm!

As Xiao Lei awakened, the month-long enlightenment beneath the Bodhi Ancient Tree also came to an end.

A month of Cultivation under the Bodhi Ancient Tree had an effect comparable to a hundred years. Xiao Lei's Realm had already reached the Half-Emperor level. If it weren't for the lack of Origin Qi between heaven and earth, he should have become an Emperor immediately!

In contrast to Xiao Lei's state, the Bodhi Ancient Tree appeared somewhat dim, evidently having expended an unspeakable amount of energy to maintain a hundred cycles of Reincarnation for Xiao Lei, who was at the Peak of a Nine-star Dou Saint.

The branches of the Bodhi Ancient Tree slowly retracted, and at the same time, this space maintained by the Bodhi Ancient Tree also rapidly dissipated.

However, Xiao Lei's spatial blockade (seal) appeared a step earlier, causing everyone who wanted to escape the space to fail.

"Everyone, no need to rush. I'll send you all on your way!"

The next moment, spatial power surged, and countless spatial tunnels appeared.

Xiao Lei had already instructed the Purple Thunder Pavilion to set up temporary coordinates in various dangerous places on the Fighting Qi Continent, to serve as the teleportation medium this time.

The next moment, everyone was randomly thrown into various tunnels by Xiao Lei... In the Ancient Wilderness Domain, countless members of the Imperial Clan, after endless slaughter, had already reached the location of the Demonic Beast horde outside the Bodhi Ancient Tree.

Even with the desperate charge of the Four Clans, they still could not curb the actions of the Hun Clan.

"Gu Yuan! It's time to make a decision. Charge into the Ancient Wilderness Domain and destroy everything!"

However, just when everyone thought the Hun Clan was about to succeed, and Lei Ying and Yan Jin were already poised for action, deep within the Ancient Wilderness Domain, that towering giant tree rapidly sank into the earth. Subsequently, countless spatial fluctuations emerged.

In the perception of Gu Yuan and Hun Tiandi, countless spatial tunnels intersected, connecting numerous distant locations. Their sheer number made it impossible for everyone to discern where Xiao Lei had gone.

With the departure of the Bodhi Ancient Tree, the surrounding Demonic Beast horde immediately dispersed. This was originally a good thing, but due to the chaotic battle of the Five Imperial Clans, these Vicious Beasts were completely drawn into the fight.

The situation had already spiraled out of control!

At this moment, a voice from Xiao Lei, released with a delay, came from within the Ancient Wilderness Domain.

"Everyone, your poor Geniuses are calling out to you from all over the continent! Go save them... hehe!"

"Xiao Lei, how could he be here?"

"No, the Ancient Wilderness Domain was originally within the Purple Thunder Pavilion's sphere of influence!"

With the Bodhi Ancient Tree appearing within their sphere of influence, how could the Purple Thunder Pavilion not get involved!

And the information received by the various clans did indeed mention the Purple Thunder Pavilion's involvement, but the focus of the clans was on Shi Po and the others.

Everyone was dumbfounded. Even if they could capture the residual spatial power in the Void Realm and gradually investigate to find the whereabouts of the various clan Geniuses, what kind of project would that be, and how much time would it take?

But they had no choice but to do it, because Xiao Lei was also among them.

"Damn it, this Xiao Lei is too cunning!"

Now everyone knew that Shi Po and the others were in the Ancient Wilderness Domain, and that the ancient jade had very likely fallen into Xiao Lei's hands!

"How dare he get involved in the matter of the ancient jade! Hmph, let's go destroy the Purple Thunder Pavilion and see if he shows up!"

Yao Dan spoke indignantly, his Killing Intent sharp!

The Medicine Clan, who had intended to form an alliance with the Purple Thunder Pavilion not long ago, changed their decision in an instant, harboring murderous intentions towards the Purple Thunder Pavilion.

Without any warning, the Hun Clan members all retreated, without the slightest hesitation, and immediately began analyzing Xiao Lei's location.

While the Four Clans were still arguing fiercely!

Yao Dan advocated going directly to the Purple Thunder Pavilion to force Xiao Lei out using his faction, while the Yan Clan and Thunder Clan believed that with the Hun Clan now appearing, this was an excellent Opportunity to strike at their opponents. As for Gu Yuan...

"First, rescue the people. Organize the Dou Saints and elite Dou Zuns of the various clans to search the Void Realm, both to rescue the Geniuses of the various clans and to simultaneously search for Xiao Lei's traces!"

"Everyone, at this moment, our Four Clans should work together with one heart to defeat the Hun Clan, reclaim the ancient jade, and continue a thousand years of peace!"

After a passionate speech, everyone could only grudgingly agree. After all, Gu Yuan was the only Nine-star Dou Saint Peak in their camp. Whether it was striking at the Purple Thunder Pavilion or engaging in a fierce battle with the Hun Clan, his combat power was indispensable...

At the same time, after leaping back and forth across the continent several times, Xiao Lei finally took out a spatial scroll that Zi Lei had left for him, and suddenly tore it apart.

The next moment, Xiao Lei, taking Yun Yun with him, directly leaped into it.

For several days, they traveled through space. When the two emerged from the Void Realm again, they had already arrived in a world of flames.

The Demonic Flame Space!

This was a method set up by the Pure Lotus Demon Saint to prevent the Purification Lotus Demon Flame from wreaking havoc, appearing once every thousand years on the Central Plains. There were still a few years until the next appearance of the Demonic Flame, but Xiao Lei had no time to wait...

"Qing Lin, are you ready?"

At this moment, feeling Xiao Lei's appearance, Qing Lin, who was sitting cross-legged in the center of the three girls, slowly opened her eyes and saw Xiao Lei walking quickly towards her, holding several incomplete maps.

The incomplete maps in Xiao Yan's hands, and even the incomplete maps from the spatial trade fair, were all here, just waiting to be used!

"Young Master, I'm ready!"

Before this trip, Qing Lin had already absorbed all of her snake slaves and obtained all of the extracted Soul Origin. Now, she was a Five-star Dou Saint plus a Great Perfection in the Heavenly Realm Soul.

At this point, most of the snake-type Demonic Beast resources on the entire Fighting Qi Continent had been consumed.

Fortunately, the function of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils was not limited to controlling snake slaves.

The Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils have a very considerable amplification effect on pupil techniques and illusionary techniques.

And the Purification Lotus Demon Flame is said to be able to purify all things. At the same time, as long as there is emotion in a person's heart, the Demonic Flame will automatically appear and burn the body, which is undoubtedly very suitable for Qing Lin.

As a Half-Saint, before obtaining the Origin Qi, Xiao Lei's path was already blocked, so this Opportunity was given to Qing Lin, and he only needed to copy the Purification Lotus Demon Flame afterwards.

"Burn it with the Fallen Heart Flame sub-flame I gave you!"

Everyone was in the Demonic Flame Space, but they didn't have much fear. After all, according to Xiao Lei, the Purification Lotus Demon Flame only had the combat power of a Six-star Dou Saint at most.

Now that Xiao Lei had arrived, the black flames on his body made it even more difficult for the surrounding pink flames to invade in the slightest.

As Xiao Lei instructed, Qing Lin summoned the sub-flame, which landed on the incomplete maps. The latter immediately merged into one, then transformed into a ball of light, shooting directly into Qing Lin's mind.

Xiao Lei, who was familiar with the original work, knew that from this moment on, the Pure Lotus Demon Saint had already awakened... it was just that the latter was hiding and not coming out.

The reason why he had the combat power of a Half-Emperor yet still summoned the other party was naturally because Xiao Lei was somewhat interested in the Nightmare Sky Mist technique.

It is rumored that the Pure Lotus Demon Saint once used this technique to put an entire city of people into an illusion, allowing them to Cultivate peacefully for a hundred years within the illusion!

Could Xiao Lei, then, use the pupil technique of the Nightmare Sky Mist Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, based on the energy of the Demonic Flame Space, to construct a simplified version of the Hundred Cycles of Reincarnation?

"Let's go, let's go meet this Purification Lotus Demon Flame!"
