"What!!!"
Feng Chen and the others felt a pressure so immense it was almost suffocating, leaving them stunned.
Was this... bloodline suppression?
They could not deny that this was the most intense pressure they had ever felt, and the same applied to Bing Xiaoxue and Zhuge Lingtian.
"How is it?"
"Do you know how terrifying your junior sister is now?"
Little Black Dragon chuckled, looking at his master's disciples. "And this is only the beginning."
"Look out for yourselves."
Feng Chen and the others mumbled.
At this very moment, Dugu Xiaoyi's aura surged at a terrifying speed.
Third-tier Void Ancestor!
Fourth-tier Void Ancestor!
...
Sixth-tier Void Ancestor!
...
After a long while,
Once Dugu Xiaoyi's Nine Nether Bloodline was fully activated, she broke through the limits of the Void Ancestor realm and entered the Dao Ancestor realm.
First-tier Dao Ancestor realm!
Yes, this was Dugu Xiaoyi's current realm. With the powerful enhancement of her Nine Nether Bloodline, her combat power could even kill a third-tier Dao Ancestor. Of course, Dugu Xiaoyi was unaware of all this.
However, even so, this was enough to shock her.
"This is..."
Feeling the realm within her body, Dugu Xiaoyi's pupils widened, her pretty face filled with horror and disbelief. "First-tier Dao Ancestor!!"
"Master, I... this!?"
Clearly, Dugu Xiaoyi was stunned by her own realm. What a joke!
She was only a third-tier Void Ancestor before, a world apart from the current first-tier Dao Ancestor. Yet...
She had reached such a level in less than half a day. If this progress were to spread, it would definitely shock countless forces across billions of territories.
"Girl, do you know how powerful your bloodline and talent are now?"
Ye Xuan curved his lips. The Nine Nether Bloodline was much better than he had anticipated. He had originally estimated that she could at most reach the peak of the ninth-tier Void Ancestor, but who would have thought she would directly enter the first-tier Dao Ancestor realm.
"Little Black certainly found a good disciple for himself."
Several minutes later,
Ye Xuan brought Dugu Xiaoyi back to the scene. When Feng Chen and the others sensed Dugu Xiaoyi's realm, they were all dumbfounded.
"What!"
"First-tier Dao Ancestor, this!?"
"My heavens, how could this be??"
Clearly, they were shocked by their junior sister's realm. It wasn't that the first-tier Dao Ancestor realm was particularly high, but rather that their junior sister had broken through so many levels by activating her bloodline this time.
A direct breakthrough from third-tier Void Ancestor to first-tier Dao Ancestor. Even with their toes, they could figure out what this meant.
"Next, let's continue training."
Ye Xuan glanced at Feng Chen and the others, who were under immense pressure, and smiled faintly.
"Master, please, no!"
Upon hearing their master's words, the mouths of everyone present twitched. Only the Tong Bei Ape and the Horned Ox Python's eyes lit up. It was said that the master's disciples were more resilient than others.
Then, Feng Chen and the others began their hellish training. Although they complained verbally, their actions did not stop. After all, with such a heaven-defying junior sister, they had no choice but to go all out.
As for Dugu Xiaoyi, she watched her senior brothers and sisters spar from the side. It had to be said that even in the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom and the Nine Nether Sacred Land, these senior brothers and sisters were rare geniuses.
Then her gaze fell on her master, Ye Xuan. Her beautiful big eyes rolled as she felt extremely grateful to her master.
"Master, you must be tired."
"Here, let me give you a shoulder massage!"
With that, Dugu Xiaoyi took out a rocking chair from her spatial ring and personally massaged her master's shoulders and back, serving him tea and water. This series of actions was incredibly skillful, as if she had practiced it countless times in private.
After all, Dugu Xiaoyi had often done this for her father and maternal grandfather in the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom and the Nine Nether Sacred Land.
Seeing her master relaxed, and with her junior sister massaging his shoulders, Feng Chen and the others' mouths twitched, their eyelids twitching incessantly. There was no comparison, no harm. Was their master trying to provoke them?
This was not fair!
"Attack!!"
Instantly, Feng Chen and the others channeled their frustration into strength, and their attack power significantly increased. This startled the Tong Bei Ape and the Horned Ox Python. Good heavens, had these little guys taken some medicine?
Thus, while undergoing trials, they moved towards the Southern Yue Immortal City.
Dugu Xiaoyi saw the direction they were heading and curiously asked Ye Xuan, "Master, are we going to Southern Yue Immortal City?"
"Mm."
Ye Xuan did not hide anything and nodded slightly. After all, there was nothing to conceal.
"Really!"
"That's great!!"
Upon hearing her master's words, Dugu Xiaoyi's heart leaped with joy. However, upon learning that the assassination attempt had failed, the Black Cloud Immortal Kingdom quickly hired assassins to intercept them. But along the way, they were all dealt with by the Tong Bei Ape and the Horned Ox Python.
Occasionally, there were assassins that the two couldn't handle, but without exception, they were no match for Little Black Dragon's single move.
In this manner, the group pushed their way through and arrived at Southern Yue Immortal City.
Once they reached the territory directly governed by the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom, the Black Cloud Immortal Kingdom did not dare to assassinate them recklessly. After all, this was not their territory. If they angered the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom and the Nine Nether Sacred Land, they were capable of anything.
Meanwhile, in the Imperial Palace of Southern Yue Immortal City.
In the grand hall.
Swish~
A figure appeared in the hall without any warning. This person possessed extremely powerful strength, reaching the peak of the third-tier Immortal Lord realm, just one step away from the fourth-tier Immortal Lord.
"Oh~"
"Father-in-law has arrived, please forgive my lack of welcome!"
Dugu Qingcang, the Emperor of the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom, hurriedly got up upon seeing the visitor and then respectfully bowed to greet him.
However, the visitor, Lin Cangqiong, the Holy Master of the Nine Nether Sacred Land and Dugu Xiaoyi's maternal grandfather, completely ignored his son-in-law's pleasantries and anxiously asked, "Qingcang, has Xiaoyi returned to the Immortal City?"
"Uh..."
Upon hearing his father-in-law's words, Dugu Qingcang was stunned. "Xiaoyi returned to the Immortal City? No, why... isn't she at the Nine Nether Sacred Land?"
"This is bad!"
Lin Cangqiong's face changed drastically upon hearing this, and he dared not conceal anything further. "Qingcang, you might not know this, but that girl used a teleportation talisman to leave the Sacred Land during the handover period. Before she left, she left me a note saying she wanted to give you a surprise and left the Sacred Land alone to come to the Immortal City."
"What!!"
Upon hearing Lin Cangqiong's words, Dugu Qingcang was completely dumbfounded. But this was not the most important thing.
"Half a day ago, I received news that many Elder-level experts from the Black Cloud Immortal Kingdom had left the Black Cloud Immortal Kingdom and entered the Southern Yue Immortal Kingdom, heading in the direction of this Immortal City. If this group is targeting Xiaoyi, then..."
Crack~
Before Lin Cangqiong could finish, a terrifying killing intent surged around Dugu Qingcang. "The Black Cloud Immortal Kingdom is courting death!"
"If Xiaoyi is harmed in the slightest, I will make the entire Black Cloud Immortal Kingdom pay with their lives!!"
