After keeping the Soul Searching Technique and the Wall of Thorns, Lu Xuan chose a bloodline secret technique for the third time. It was the bloodline secret technique of the Frigid Pool Giant Flood Dragon lineage. He had chosen this for Ao Ze.
Ao Ze had been diligent and conscientious during this period of time. It was time to give him some rewards. Although Ao Ze should have inherited a cultivation technique from his elders, it was still incomparable to the collection in the Heavenly Emperor Palace. After all, the Sky Sword Continent was dominated by humans. The demonic beasts didn't have the upper hand. As for the collection in the Heavenly Emperor Palace, it was in the hands of the Heaven Region's demonic beasts. The two of them were on completely different levels.
After using up the three chances to choose from the Book Depository, Lu Xuan went to the Jewel Pavilion again. In the Jewel Pavilion, he could choose another three treasures.
Lu Xuan first chose a Thousand Opportunity Quicksand Crystal. The Thousand Opportunity Quicksand Crystal was condensed from the quicksand in the deep sea. It contained a dense earth attribute essence power and could be used to condense the Wutu Divine Rune. Currently, among his Five Elemental Divine Runes, only the Wutu Divine Rune was still at 1-star. He could make up for this shortcoming first.
Subsequently, he chose a 9-star Spiritual Talisman. It was called the Mountain Crushing Saint Talisman. It was capable of unleashing an extremely powerful attack. Its power was comparable to a full-powered attack from a peak level Origin Realm martial artist.
As for the last treasure, Lu Xuan finally chose the Cloud Piercing Wings that he had his eyes on. The Cloud Piercing Wings was a single-target treasure. It could greatly increase a martial artist's movement speed. Not only could the Cloud Piercing Wings be used to chase after enemies and escape, it had a miraculous effect during a battle. It could make up for Lu Xuan's lack of movement skill to a great extent.
Currently, Lu Xuan only had the Wind Riding Art and the Thunderbolt Flash. The Thunderbolt Flash's level could no longer keep up with Lu Xuan's current strength. It was still effective against low-level martial artists, but its effect was limited against powerful martial artists. However, once he obtained the Piercing Cloud Wings, Lu Xuan's movement skills would become even more mysterious and unpredictable.
With the three treasures in hand, Lu Xuan finally finished the last thing he had to do in Heaven Emperor Palace. It was time to say goodbye. Immediately sensing Ruo Xiangyi's location, Lu Xuan directly sent a voice transmission to Ruo Xiangyi, asking her to call Bing Ling to go to the teleportation formation together. At the same time, Lu Xuan also brought out Little Tanuki, who was sleeping in Dao Enlightenment Pavilion.
"Are you leaving?" Ruo Xiangyi asked when she saw Lu Xuan walking over.
Lu Xuan nodded. "One year has passed, and the matters in the Heavenly Emperor Palace are almost done."
Ruo Xiangyi chuckled. "At first, I was thinking about going back, but now that I suddenly have to leave, I'm a little reluctant."
Lu Xuan shrugged. "If you want, you can choose to stay here. I have no objection."
Ruo Xiangyi rolled her eyes. Although she could cultivate here, she couldn't break through. She had to leave the teleportation formation. It would be great if she could come here once in a while.
The two didn't say much. Bing Ling directly returned to the Profound Ice Phoenix Blood Sword, and Lu Xuan carried it on his back again. Little Tanuki burrowed into Lu Xuan's robe and continued to curl up lazily. Immediately, Lu Xuan opened the teleportation formation and went straight back to the ancient forest. Of course, he didn't forget to ask Ruo Xiangyi for the token that Ye Tian left for him. He didn't know if this token had any other uses, so Ruo Xiangyi could only reluctantly return it to Lu Xuan.
"Ao Ze, come out!" Lu Xuan came near the cold pond and shouted. Immediately, Ao Ze's huge head emerged from the cold pond.
"Master, what can I do for you?"
"Become smaller and leave with me."
Hearing this, Ao Ze was a little excited. Was he finally going to leave this place and see the outside world? His body quickly shrunk until he was only ten feet long. He didn't look as scary as before and looked just like an ordinary snake.
Lu Xuan nodded lightly and said, "Come with me."
Immediately, two people and one beast quickly soared into the sky, directly flying towards the teleportation formation that enveloped the sky.
Arriving in front of the milky white teleportation formation, Lu Xuan made a gesture with both hands, took a deep breath, and shouted softly, "Open!"
The teleportation formation in front of them fluctuated, and then suddenly, a big hole appeared, revealing the blue sky above. Ruo Xiangyi looked up, and for the first time, she felt that the sky was so blue, and so familiar.
"Let's go!" Lu Xuan said, and then his figure burst out from the hole, rushing straight into the sky.
Above the clouds, Ruo Xiangyi and Ao Ze's body burst out a wave of aura at the same time. Without the suppression of the teleportation formation, they were finally going to break through!
Seeing this, Lu Xuan hurriedly summoned the Wind Spirit Boat and put Ruo Xiangyi and Ao Ze into the Wind Spirit Boat. The Wind Spirit Boat didn't look too big, but it was very spacious. Ruo Xiangyi immediately sat down, closed her eyes, and began to cultivate. She had been accumulating strength in the Heaven Emperor Palace for a long time, and her Yuan Qi was already very thick. She couldn't suppress her desire to break through.
When Ao Ze came into the Wind Spirit Boat and saw that the space was spacious, he no longer suppressed his body. In an instant, he returned to his original size of seven feet, and a mysterious law of heaven and earth descended on his body.
Compared to Ruo Xiangyi, Ao Ze had been accumulating strength for a longer time. According to his age, he was now seventy-eight years old, but as early as fifty years old, he had reached the peak of the Tenth-Order Demonic Beast. For the next thirty years, he had been suppressed at the peak of the Demonic Beast Realm, but his accumulation and comprehension did not disappear. Once he was free from the suppression of the teleportation formation, he instantly began to transform into the Demon King Realm.
At the very moment when Lu Xuan activated the formation of the Ancient Forest, all of the monsters who were at the peak of their powers in the Ancient Forest looked at the sky right away. They felt that the mysterious power that had been suppressing them for a long time had suddenly disappeared at that very moment. Just when they were overjoyed and about to make a breakthrough, they suddenly realized that the power had descended upon them again. It was as if what they felt just now was just an illusion.
"Ao ao ao ~" Little Tanuki crawled out from Lu Xuan's chest and saw the scene outside through the teleportation formation of the Wind Spirit Boat. She couldn't help but cry out in excitement.
"Xuan, is this the outside world?" Little Tanuki asked Lu Xuan. Her desire for the outside world was not as strong as Ao Ze's. After all, she had only been born for a year. One year was not enough for her to get bored of the Heavenly Emperor Palace and the ancient forest.
"Yes, this is the outside world, also known as the Sky Sword Continent. This place is much more interesting than the ancient forest. Not only are there various Demonic Beasts, but there are also many humans and powerful warriors. There are also many of my family and friends," said Lu Xuan to Little Tanuki with a smile.
"Are there many delicious foods?" Little Tanuki's saliva dripped down.
"Humans do have many delicious foods, but I don't know if they suit your taste. However, don't forget what I told you. You must not attack humans at will." Lu Xuan warned again.
"I know. I will listen to you, Xuan." Little Tanuki nodded her head vigorously.
Lu Xuan wasn't in a hurry to activate the Wind Spirit Boat. Instead, he quietly hovered in mid-air and waited for Ruo Xiangyi to complete her breakthrough with Ao Ze.
The essence force waves on Ruo Xiangyi's body vanished first. After all, she had only broken through a minor realm, unlike Ao Ze who had transformed from a demonic beast to a demonic beast king.
Lu Xuan could obviously feel that Ruo Xiangyi's qi presence had gotten much stronger. Previously, when Ruo Xiangyi was at the first level of the Origin Realm, he could still see through Ruo Xiangyi's cultivation level. But now, he could no longer see through it.
Seeing Ruo Xiangyi open her eyes, Lu Xuan couldn't help but ask, "What realm are you in now?"
Ruo Xiangyi let out a happy smile and said, "Thanks to you, I have already reached the third level of the Origin Realm. In just a year, I have progressed from the first level of the Origin Realm to the third level of the Origin Realm. This speed is truly astonishing. This time, our Peony Palace's disciples will no longer fall behind the other sects."
Lu Xuan coughed lightly and reminded Ruo Xiangyi of a cruel fact, "I am your master. In the future, you have to listen to my orders. The matters of Heaven Emperor Palace must not be leaked. That Primal Peony Divine Technique, without my orders, you are not allowed to impart it to anyone."
Ruo Xiangyi's good mood was instantly destroyed by Lu Xuan. She replied helplessly, "Yes, my master. I will listen to you."
Lu Xuan nodded his head in satisfaction. In fact, he didn't want Ruo Xiangyi to do anything. The reason why he forced her to swear a master-servant oath was to prevent the secret from being leaked. But from the looks of it, it wasn't a bad idea to use this matter to tease Ruo Xiangyi.
After waiting for a period of time, the law waves on Ao Ze's body gradually disappeared. He had also completed his breakthrough.
Compared to before he broke through, the scales on Ao Ze's body were much sturdier. It almost had a layer of metallic texture. His body had also suddenly grown from seven feet to eight feet. But the biggest change was the two small flood dragon horns on his head. They might still look immature, but this was the sign of the Icy Pool Giant Flood Dragon reaching the Demonic King Realm.
"Many thanks to Master for bringing Ao Ze out." As a servant, Ao Ze was much more polite than Ruo Xiangyi. He spoke with respect and sincerity.
"No need for formalities." Lu Xuan waved his hand and said. Then, he took out a jade slip and handed it to Ao Ze. "This is the bloodline secret skill of the Giant Flood Dragon Clan that I got for you. If it's better than the one passed down by your elders, you can practice this."
Ao Ze swung his tail and took the jade slip. He probed it with his mind. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes excitedly. "Master's great kindness, Ao Ze can't repay it even if I die ten thousand times. This is the skill of the Deep Sea Giant Flood Dragon Clan. It's said that my clan is a branch of the Deep Sea Giant Flood Dragon Clan. In terms of skill, it's a hundred times better than my clan!"
As long as it was useful, Lu Xuan nodded. The stronger Ao Ze was, the more help it would be to him. Then, he thought of something and asked, "What realm have you reached now? Can you become smaller?"
"Master, I've directly broken through to the third level of the Demon King Realm. I'm not far from the fourth level of the Demon King Realm. Now, I've mastered the ability to transform."
