252: Warm moments! Doudi Cave Space

“When I meet Han Yue and Han Xue, I can start Cultivating them.”

“They have great talent in the Spirit Array Master Dao.”

Chu Xiao was not in a hurry to Cultivate spirit arrays; instead, he returned to the pavilion on Tian Zhu Peak.

Not far away, in front of a grill, Xiao Yi Xian, Qing Lin, and Feng Qing'er were busy.

A gentle look appeared in Chu Xiao’s eyes as he took out a teacup and slowly drank, quietly watching them.

“Alright, alright, it’s finally done.”

“One with honey glaze, one with spicy seasoning.”

Not long after, Feng Qing'er’s cheerful voice rang out.

For someone as proud and arrogant as her, once she opens her heart, she will show her true self in front of her own people; her pride and sharp tongue are just her camouflage.

“Since it’s ready, then bring it over for me to taste.” Chu Xiao put down his teacup.

“A Xiao!” (Master) (Young Master)

Three surprised voices rang out simultaneously, and they turned their heads to look at Chu Xiao, who was sitting in the pavilion.

“Why are you all just standing there foolishly? Aren’t you going to eat?” Chu Xiao’s voice carried a hint of a smile: “Or is there none for me?”

“No matter who doesn’t get to eat, you certainly won’t be left out.” Xiao Yi Xian sat down opposite Chu Xiao and took out the wine she had brewed.

Qing Lin and Feng Qing'er each placed a roasted leg on the table, and the former took out a food box.

This food box was also obtained by Chu Xiao through a lottery draw and contained a space about ten zhang in diameter.

Dishes made from Demonic Beast meat below seventh-tier or Heaven And Earth Treasure would remain in the same state when taken out as when they were put in, for a short period.

For dishes made with better ingredients, the effect would be discounted.

“Comfortable!”

Fine wine, delicious food, beautiful women.

After the meal, Chu Xiao was in a very pleasant mood.

With his mood improved, he gave gifts to the three women.

The small items he obtained through the lottery were things he didn’t need or care for himself.

But for the three women, they were useful and very precious.

After the casual chat, Chu Xiao's Dou Qi had also recovered by about seventy to eighty percent.

“You three chat, I’m going out again.”

“Once I’m done, I’ll take you out to play for a while.”

As his voice fell, Chu Xiao once again arrived outside the Small World.

This time, he directly released the Thunder Gang Emperor Flame, concealing its aura, and transformed into a ball of flame, diving downwards.

After about an hour, he felt the pressure around him suddenly decrease, as if he had reached the end of the magma.

Yet, before his eyes, he could still clearly see endless magma, as if it had no end.

“Bang!”

When Chu Xiao stretched out his hands, he touched an invisible barrier.

Even if he used all his strength, he couldn’t shake it in the slightest; there wasn't even a ripple.

If someone were to charge in recklessly, they would likely explode and die.

“The methods of a Dou Emperor; probably only a high-level Dou Saint could attempt to force their way in.”

Chu Xiao had already anticipated this situation; his Heavenly Evolution Art had long ago deduced the outcome.

With his current strength, if he wanted to enter the space beneath this magma, he could only resort to clever tricks.

If the Void Swallowing Flame and Purification Lotus Demon Flame were present, he could enter and exit freely without obstruction.

Chu Xiao did not have these two types of exotic flames, but he had the Thunder Gang Emperor Flame, which had a higher status.

When the Thunder Gang Emperor Flame enveloped his hand, it easily passed through the barrier.

Without hesitation, Chu Xiao controlled the Thunder Gang Emperor Flame to envelop his entire body and entered the space beneath the magma.

The next moment, time seemed to pause.

The previously noisy sound of flowing magma suddenly disappeared.

What met his eyes was a boundless, silent, and directionless space of darkness.

Chu Xiao turned to try and cross the barrier again immediately, but found himself moving normally.

Clearly, after passing through that barrier, he was randomly teleported to a certain spot within the space, not at the edge.

“No big problem.” Chu Xiao immediately sensed his Dou Emperor Small World and found that he could still enter and exit freely.

This way, exploring this space carried no risks.

Even if the Small World couldn't be sensed, he wasn't afraid; he still had the plane skiff.

The space created by Tuoshe Ancient Emperor was not harder than the plane barrier.

“Dao gives birth to one.”

Chu Xiao performed the Heavenly Evolution Art.

His vision was consumed by darkness.

His Peak Spirit Realm Soul was not weak, but even with his Soul Power fully released, he couldn't sense anything in this space.

To discern direction, he could only rely on secret arts.

“Hiss.”

Chu Xiao was secretly startled.

From his current position, if he wanted to reach the edge of this space, it would take at least a full day of all-out travel.

This involved high-level spatial application principles that he couldn't yet comprehend with his current strength.

Moreover, even after reaching the edge, he wouldn't be able to leave; he would be randomly teleported elsewhere again.

To leave, he had to pass through a spatial portal.

But this portal moved periodically and was not easy to find.

In short, if an ordinary Dou Zun or even a Dou Saint came here, they might never be able to leave.

Chu Xiao then deduced the location of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave Abode portal, which was not far from his current position.

“Whoosh”

Chu Xiao shot towards a certain direction.

About half an hour later, he could already see a ball of light with his naked eye.

Another half an hour later, he arrived near this ball of light and found it to be a massive, ancient, simple stone gate, at least ten thousand zhang tall, with no visible top or bottom. It exuded an ancient, primordial aura as if from eternity.

In front of this aura, Chu Xiao felt like an ant, like a mayfly seeing the vast sky.

His gaze shifted, and he looked at the top of the stone gate.

“Ancient Emperor Immortal Cave!”

The four ancient characters appeared unremarkable, yet they possessed a primitive, noble sense of supremacy that transcended heaven and earth.

【Under normal circumstances, one needs to gather eight pieces of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade to find this place and open the portal.】

【But I don’t need to be so complicated to enter; once my strength reaches the Late Stage of Dou Saint, I’ll have plenty of ways.】

“Plenty of ways!?”

Xun'er, Huo Zhi, and Yao Ling’s eyes all gleamed with a strange light.

Doesn't that mean that as long as the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade cannot be gathered, only Chu Xiao can enter the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave Abode?

As long as the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade cannot be gathered, the only Dou Emperor who can be born on this Fighting Qi Continent will be Chu Xiao.

“No wonder Brother Chu Xiao wants to obtain the Xiao Family’s Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade.”

“This way, he stands on undefeated ground.”

Xun'er smiled, pondering how to obtain the Ancient Clan’s Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade to add another layer of assurance for Chu Xiao.

The same thought appeared in Huo Zhi and Yao Ling’s minds, but they weren't seeking more assurance; rather, they wanted to curry favor at once.

Knowing that this Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade wouldn't be effective, it would be better to use it to curry favor with Chu Xiao.

At the same time, within the space where the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave Abode was located.

Chu Xiao felt a chill run through his body, as if some supreme existence was watching him.

He wasn't surprised by this at all; the existence watching him was the purpose of his trip, the Old Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun.

“Go!”

Chu Xiao raised a finger and released a ball of flame.

The flame devoured Heaven And Earth energy and quickly transformed into a hundred-zhang sea of fire, illuminating the surrounding few li.

His gaze dropped, and seeing the scene at the bottom of the Dou Emperor, his breath hitched.

As a Huaxia person, he immediately pulled out his “phone.”

【It’s still shocking to see Senior Zhu Kun’s true form after a long time.】

【Demonic Beasts, as long as they live long enough, indeed have unique advantages in certain aspects.】

【He truly lives up to his reputation as the number one person on the Fighting Qi Continent today.】
