As for Jian Qian, who was beside him, she followed Jian Chen’s actions and bowed.
Xuan Yi’s first impression of Jian Qian was not bad. It was rare for him to reveal a warm smile.
Then, he disappeared.
The two of them did not care about the Lin family and the others who had ugly expressions on their faces.
When they discovered Jian Chen’s identity just now, the other party wanted to climb up and curry favor with him.
However, Xuan Yi couldn’t be bothered with him. If his Master was like this, Jian Chen would naturally do the same.
He directly brought Jian Qian and turned into two streaks of light, flying toward the ancient battlefield.
At the same time, Xuan Yi had already made plans to break through.
After all, he had already delayed for too long at this realm. Not only that.
The day of the grand competition was gradually approaching. The most crucial thing was the Endless Sea region.
Time was becoming more and more pressing. Just in case, he had to make sufficient preparations.
In this world, Xuan Yi believed in his strength.
As light flickered, thousand pounds of divine essence appeared before Xuan Yi.
Xuan Yi had discovered this when he was exploring the underground palace. With the addition of some from the Xuan family, it seemed to be enough.
However, Xuan Yi was clearly troubled.
There was no other reason. Previously, Xuan Yi had tried to absorb this divine essence. Although the process was extremely smooth.
However, this progress did not increase at all.
He had clearly not reached his limit. After thinking for a moment, he estimated that he had reached a bottleneck.
Thirty-three spiritual essence nodes. Was he really going to give up again?
Forget about the Sage Realm, even the Heavenly King Realm had reached perfection.
However, Xuan Yi had already reached such strength with the Sage Realm. It was naturally extremely difficult for him to advance further.
But, it was not completely impossible.
During the time when Jian Chen returned home, Xuan Yi received another side mission from the system.
It was thirty-six spiritual essence nodes to reach the Heavenly King Realm.
The reward was: an increase of one level of sword intent, a seventh grade weapon, and a supreme cultivation method.
It could be said that this side mission strengthened Jian Chen’s determination to achieve a complete breakthrough.
Since the divine source was no longer of any use to Xuan Yi, then a change was needed.
Xuan Yi still had the ten directions Dao source that the system had given him previously, but he had not used.
Perhaps this time, Xuan Yi really needed to absorb.
But, absorbing the Dao source was not that simple.
Even the Divine Emperor was carefully absorbing the source.
If an ordinary Heavenly King were to absorb, there would probably only be one consequence, and that would be to explode and die.
Compared to the source of Godly King, the source should be the energy source that was closer to the Dao.
The law energy contained within was also not something that a mere source of Godly King could compare to.
It was not impossible to forcefully absorb.
There had been precedents before.
But the consequences were naturally extremely tragic.
This was also the reason why Xuan Yi had not moved a single inch even after he had ten sources.
It was not that he did not want to, he did not dare to.
Moreover, Xuan Yi’s original plan was to wait until he broke through to the Heavenly King Realm before using this source.
However, under such circumstances, he did not care much.
Just to be safe, he should call Bing Yu over to protect him.
In the next moment, a graceful figure appeared behind Xuan Yi and a faint cold aura was emitted. It was Bing Yu.
“Bing Yu, protect me.”
Bing Yu nodded and retreated to a hundred steps away from Xuan Yi to protect him.
Xuan Yi was still very assured of Bing Yu’s strength. He reckoned that amongst the many Heavenly Kings of the South Continent.
Bing Yu was invincible other than him.
With Bing Yu protecting him, Xuan Yi was quite at ease.
As for Long Xin, the number of times was limited. There were only three times.
Now, there were only two times.
This time, Long Xin might have to take action in the Endless Sea, so Xuan Yi didn’t intend to let him protect him.
When there were no restrictions, it was naturally possible.
Since the matter had been arranged properly, Xuan Yi immediately began.
Xuan Yi rose into the air and appeared above the Golden Divine Hall. Below him was a pool full of Dao source fluid.
Having already turned these Dao sources into spiritual fluid, in general, it was relatively easy to absorb.
Within a circumference of thousands of miles, spiritual energy soared into the sky, and multicoloured light filled the sky. It was as if a precious treasure had descended into the world.
This was even when Xuan Yi had used a restriction. If there wasn’t a restriction, it was likely that the entire ancient battlefield could be seen clearly.
With no doubt, such a large formation naturally attracted the attention of countless people.
Ever since the last time, they had already tacitly agreed that this Golden Divine Hall belonged to Xuan Yi.
No one dared to act rashly and have any other thoughts.
After all, Xuan Yi’s strength was displayed there.
But if they didn’t dare to take it, they could at least take a look. It wasn’t against the law to take a look, right.
Thus, many great sects in the ancient battlefield all headed in the direction of the Golden Divine Hall.
Watching from afar, they didn’t dare to approach.
They weren’t fools. When they saw the pool of source fluid, they had already guessed what Xuan Yi was going to do.
This Heaven and Earth phenomenon was definitely caused by the pool of source fluid. There were no spiritual treasures at all.
Xuan Yi was probably going to use the source fluid to break through.
Thinking of this, they naturally did not dare to approach.
Otherwise, if it was because of them that caused Xuan Yi to fail in breaking through, then their sects and clans would probably suffer.
“If I’m not wrong, it should be a Dao source, right? So many Dao sources, isn’t it too incredible?”
Of course, there were some people who knew the inside story. Xuan Yi had a Divine Emperor protecting him.
And that Divine Emperor was obviously much stronger than the three from the south Continent.
Although this Dao source was extremely rare, it was much easier for Xuan Yi.
However, although there were many Heavenly Kings present, none of them could guess what Xuan Yi was going to do with so many Dao sources?
“What is Xuan Yi going to do? Breakthrough? By devouring the Dao source?”
Upon hearing this hypothesis, the faces of many Heavenly Kings were filled with disbelief. How could such a thing happen to Heavenly Kings.
Only a Divine Emperor would have credibility.
If an ordinary Heavenly King forcefully trained and absorbed it, he would only end up exploding and dying.
They did not believe that Xuan Yi would get to this point.
However, some of the ancient Heavenly Kings were stroking their beards and recalling the situation.
“I guess it should be like this, borrowing the power of this Dao source to deduce his spiritual essence nodes to the extreme!”
The surrounding people immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. This hypothesis was a little too far-fetched.
No matter how strong Xuan Yi was, he was only a Sage Realm guy. Even the Heavenly King didn’t even dare to absorb the Dao source.
He actually wanted to use it to break through to the Heavenly King Realm.
And he wanted to use it to the extreme?
This made too many people lose confidence in Xuan Yi. Cultivation was a heaven-defying thing.
This was even more difficult. It was as difficult as hell. Wasn’t this courting death?
