Lu Xuan took out a pen and paper, wrote down a prescription, and handed it to Ye Wenyan, saying, "Just brew the medicine according to this prescription. I just devoured some of Saul's soul power, and I need to digest it first. I'll leave the Alliance Master's Residence to you, great-grandfather Gao."
Ye Wenyan looked at him and nodded, "Don't worry. We're here. Focus on your cultivation. Right now, your strength is the most important thing for both you and us. "
Lu Xuan nodded and turned to leave the inner chamber. Now he also had an unprecedented sense of urgency. As long as Saul was not captured, the butcher's knife hanging above his head would never disappear. An existence that was close to a Soul Sage ten thousand years ago was an absolutely powerful existence, no matter who was present.
Watching Lu Xuan leave, Ye Wenjun took the prescription from Ye Wenyan's hands and looked at it. He couldn't help but smile, "It really does seem like it. Xuan 'er is so young, but he knows so many things. He even learned medicine."
Ye Wenyan smiled, "Xuan 'er … is someone who was born in the face of calamity. Let alone our Ye family, there aren't many people like him in the entire Heavenly Sword Continent. Furthermore, he was chosen by our ancestor, so he naturally can do things that ordinary people can't."
Hearing Ye Wenyan's words, Ye Wenjun immediately became somewhat depressed. He stuffed the medicinal formula back into the box and let out a long sigh. "No wonder Xuan-er has always been uninterested in inheriting my mantle. Thinking about it, it makes sense. With the inheritance left behind by my ancestor, what does this little thing of mine amount to?"
Ye Wenyan smiled and shook his head, "Why are you always looking for a successor? If Xuan 'er can really break the precedent of no one ascending to the Heaven Region in ten thousand years, then you'll naturally have a chance to go to the Heaven Region. It's such a magnificent world. Even I feel a surge of emotions when I think about it."
Ye Wenjun's eyes lit up when he heard this. That was true. He was already very old in the Heavenly Sword Continent, and he might not even have many years left to live. However, if he could go to the Heaven Region and break through to the Transcendent realm, then he'd have a long life ahead of him.
What was Transcendent? It was the transcendence of the mortal body. For a martial artist, this was a major transformation. Not only would their strength increase by leaps and bounds, but their entire body would also undergo a complete transformation. It would not be strange for them to return to their youth.
While Ye Wenjun was filled with anticipation for the trip to the Heaven Region, Lu Xuan left the room and informed everyone before entering a quiet room. He had obtained too much soul power from Saul. Although he had used some to treat Ye Haoran, the remaining soul power was still abundant. It filled both of his Soul Lakes to the brim. He was almost 100% confident that he would make another breakthrough in the path of soul refinement.
Lu Xuan sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes in concentration. He was not in a hurry to circulate the Taiyi Fusion Technique. Instead, he began to calm his mind. Compared to Spirit Refinement, Soul Refinement had a higher requirement for one's mental state. After all, it was performed on one's soul.
Gradually, all the distracting thoughts in his mind were thrown to the back of his head. His mind became clear, and at this moment, the Taiyi Fusion Technique began to circulate.
The originally calm Soul Lake seemed to have been set on fire. It gradually began to boil, and as the soul power in the Soul Lake rippled, strands of greyish-black impurities began to drift out. Without any hesitation, the moment the impurities appeared, Lu Xuan directly used his soul power to kill them.
Lu Xuan would never let his guard down against the Soul race. He had suffered once when he had chased after the Soul race, and the Soul race had invaded his Soul Lake. If the Sword Crystal had not helped him at a crucial moment, he would have probably been possessed by the Soul race. Now that he was absorbing Saul's soul power, how could he be careless?
However, Saul did not seem to have left behind any backup plans. Perhaps it was because he was in a hurry and did not think of doing anything. Lu Xuan's process of removing the impurities was relatively smooth. Furthermore, Saul's soul power was rather pure, and there were not many impurities within it. Lu Xuan continued to clean it up, and it only took about an hour for the two Soul Lakes to become extremely clear.
At this moment, Lu Xuan took a deep breath and took out a Soul Pearl. This Soul Pearl was condensed from Saul's split soul, and contained relatively thick soul power. Lu Xuan extended his hand and pressed the Soul Pearl between his eyebrows. This Soul Pearl immediately melted and slowly fused into Lu Xuan's forehead, not leaving a single trace behind.
The moment the Soul Pearl entered his body, it immediately turned into countless strands of pure soul power. Another wave of majestic soul power rained down. Less than half of the Soul Pearl had melted, but his Soul Lake, which was already close to full, was already reaching its limit.
Right now, Lu Xuan shouted in his heart, "Open!"
Boom boom boom! The enormous Soul Lake began to shake violently against the pouring rain, as if a volcano at the bottom of the lake was about to erupt.
In reality, it was more or less the same. Lu Xuan frantically circulated the Taiyi Return to Origin Technique, and his soul power shook violently. As the shaking became more and more intense, his Soul Lake finally could not take it anymore …
Boom boom … A distant sound rang out in Lu Xuan's mind, as if something had exploded. In that instant, Lu Xuan was momentarily dazed, and his mind was completely blank.
Splash … The pitter-patter of rain woke Lu Xuan from his dazed state. The remaining soul power in the Soul Pearl was still continuously falling into his Soul Lake. After regaining consciousness, Lu Xuan looked at his Soul Lake and was immediately shocked — this Soul Lake was actually so huge!
Previously, his Soul Lake was almost filled with soul power, and now, there was still so much soul power. However, it only covered the bottom of the Soul Lake, and it was clearly very empty. It was obvious that the expansion of Lu Xuan's Soul Lake this time was far beyond his expectations.
One had to know that a Soul Lake was equivalent to a vessel. The larger the vessel, the more soul power it could store, and the stronger the strength it possessed. The cultivation of a Divine Talisman Master was a process of continuously expanding the Soul Lake. However, this time, Lu Xuan's breakthrough seemed to be a little big.
After slowly sensing it, Lu Xuan began to recover from his shock. From the size of his Soul Lake, he could clearly determine that he had actually broken through to become an Eight Star Divine Talisman Master in one go, which was equivalent to breaking through three realms in a row!
Such a huge harvest had completely exceeded his expectations. Feeling pleasantly surprised, Lu Xuan did not hesitate to take out the remaining eight Soul Pearls. Right now, these Soul Pearls just happened to provide him with sufficient soul power, and he did not need to slowly absorb soul power to fill up his Soul Lake. Otherwise, who knew how long it would take him to fill up such two large Soul Lakes.
Although this breakthrough had come so suddenly and so huge, it was actually a process of accumulating strength. First, Lu Xuan had experienced a peerless battle in the Eight Directional Sacred Palace, and had pushed himself to the brink of exhaustion several times. When a martial artist was forced into a desperate situation, they would often be able to achieve the effect of breaking down and rebuilding. Unfortunately, Lu Xuan had fled to the Demon Sealing Continent and did not have the chance to make a breakthrough at all.
Not only that, he had also experienced a battle with the Xuan clan on the Demon Sealing Continent, and the difficulty of this battle was even greater than the one in the Eight Directional Sacred Palace. After much difficulty, he had finally left the Demon Sealing Continent, and was then encircled by Sikong Qing and the others. The accumulation of these experiences had long since reached an extremely terrifying level.
The soul power that Saul had given him was only the fuse that ignited all of this. It was one thing to not fly, but to soar into the sky in one go!
