Chapter 22

Around Xiao Yan's body, the frenzied energy transformed into a myriad of energy light points, instantly filling the entire cultivation layer. At the same time, a thick layer of energy light covered Xiao Yan's body, continuously surging into him.

Zhan Lao, watching the black figure enveloped in a layer of energy light points at the center, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "This guy is truly unpredictable, indeed not simple. No wonder he was chosen as the successor of the Zichen Spirit Tower. It seems it will cause another stir among the Xiao Clan elders."

Inside Xiao Yan's room, a golden tower emitting a strange light slowly floated in the air. The room was also filled with a light blue energy surging in at an extremely fast speed. Such an anomaly also began in the Xiao Clan, and in an instant, Xiao Yan's room was enveloped in a layer of energy, emitting a blinding light. Just as Zhan Lao expected, all the elders, including Xiao Li and Xiao Long, rushed to Xiao Yan's room.

"Isn't this the new clan member Xiao Yan!" One of the elders, looking at the room enveloped in energy and continuously surging in, was instantly amazed and said softly.

Xiao Li, standing at the front, and Xiao Long, standing behind him, both showed a hint of confusion and doubt on their faces, then nodded.

At this moment, almost all the Xiao Clan members rushed over, instantly surrounding Xiao Yan's door, making it impossible to pass through. The noisy discussions were rampant, and such a scene had not appeared in the Xiao Clan for a long time. The last time was several hundred years ago, when another one appeared, a possessor of Heavenly Fire in the Xiao Clan. Now, another one appeared before everyone's eyes.

They did not know that the new clan member inside the room was the possessor of the Chaos Holy Flame, the top-ranked Heavenly Fire in the Xiao Clan!

In the crowd, a few figures were particularly prominent, with a vastly different aura from the other Xiao Clan members. Looking at the room enveloped in many energies from a distance, a cold smile flashed across their faces.

Xiao Li, looking at the noisy crowd, couldn't help but frown. This was the most crucial stage for Xiao Yan's improvement, and it could not be interrupted. Such a nearly leap-like improvement opportunity only occurred once for a Dou Di when they first cultivated on the Dou Di continent, and it would not happen again under normal circumstances.

"Silence!"

Xiao Li shouted at the noisy crowd, and the loud and chaotic voices instantly quieted down. Xiao Li's frown slightly eased. Xiao Yan's first cultivation was crucial, so no one was allowed to disturb him. Then, Xiao Li turned to all the Xiao Clan members and said, "No one is allowed to approach this room, violators will be punished according to clan law!"

In the Xiao Clan, no one dared to defy the high and mighty ancestor. All the Xiao Clan members silently nodded.

The crowd slowly dispersed, and Xiao Li immediately arranged for several people to guard. If his prediction was correct, Xiao Yan's cultivation would last for ten days to half a month, or even longer.

After arranging everything, Xiao Li turned to look at the room and then left.

Inside the golden tower in the room, Xiao Yan was emitting a golden glow, with the surrounding energy almost reaching saturation, continuously surging into his body. Two days had passed, and the energy absorption showed no signs of stopping. Behind Xiao Yan, a boy filled with electric sparks was also sitting cross-legged, naturally the injured Long Yi. On the day he was brought in, Zhan Lao had completely healed Long Yi's injuries, and the speed of the treatment was indeed astonishing.

Xiao Yan's Dou Qi was slowly filled with a mysterious energy, which naturally did not escape his detection. As expected, this was the Emperor's Source Qi. Seeing the rapid increase in his Dou Qi, Xiao Yan was quite surprised. After two days, he was about to stop and rest for a moment when Zhan Lao's voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

"Kid, these few days are the best opportunity for you to enhance your strength. If you stop, you might not have such an opportunity again."

Zhan Lao's voice reverberated in Xiao Yan's mind. The best opportunity? If I stop, I won't have such an opportunity again?

"Why do you say that?" Xiao Yan did not know that the first cultivation of any Dou Di on this continent was the fastest opportunity for improvement. Despite his many doubts, hearing Zhan Lao's words, he immediately dispelled the idea of stopping, but asked curiously.

Zhan Lao said lightly, "Every Dou Di, when they first come to this continent, will experience a significant improvement during their first cultivation. How much improvement, no one can say for sure, as it depends on each person's talent and destiny. But the scene before me tells me that you will need to maintain this for at least ten days to half a month. Don't rush, take it slowly. After your cultivation, I believe you will have unexpected gains."

Hearing Zhan Lao's words, Xiao Yan instantly understood. It turned out that his rapid and significant improvement was because this was his first cultivation on the Dou Di continent. Every new Dou Di on the Dou Di continent had such an opportunity, and according to Zhan Lao, he was still far from completing his first cultivation, and he could not stop in between. Xiao Yan silently sighed in relief, grateful for Zhan Lao's reminder, otherwise, he would have suffered a great loss this time.

Xiao Yan no longer spoke, and his mind once again immersed in cultivation. The absorption speed seemed to increase even more. As Xiao Yan absorbed, the energy inside the tower decreased, but the energy outside the tower continuously surged in, creating a spectacular scene like a sky full of stars.

At this moment, at the top of this layer of the tower, several different colored points flashed with a hint of light. Zhan Lao raised his face, squinted his eyes, and looked, his face slightly rippling. If one looked closely at the top, it was covered with complex patterns. These patterns were extremely intricate but had no discernible pattern. These complex and patternless patterns seemed to hide some profound secrets, faintly emitting a powerful yet extremely subtle aura. Among them, several bright light points flickered, like blinking eyes, with a hint of mystery and vitality.

Looking at the few light points at the top, Zhan Lao muttered to himself, "It seems this kid indeed has a connection with you..."
