Xingyun Pavilion
On top of a mountain, Yao Lao and Feng Zun were sitting cross-legged.
Tianhuo Zun had been sent to the Jia Ma Empire by Xiao Tian to prevent any action from the Soul Hall against the empire.
Feng Zun said with a smile, "Old man, I've secretly contacted some old friends from the past. If you can recover, they will join Xingyun Pavilion."
"If we can obtain the Dou Saint skeleton this time, I might be able to break through to the Half-Saint level!" Yao Lao said with a smile, "With that level of power, I can barely ensure some degree of safety."
Feng Zun, slightly worried, added, "I'm just not sure how things are going. It's said that many powerful figures were drawn to the relic this time!"
"Don't worry. I have faith in my disciple's abilities," Yao Lao replied, but then his gaze shifted to the side. The void twisted, and a door condensed out of thin air. Xiao Tian walked out and said, "Mission accomplished!"
Hearing Xiao Tian's words, both Yao Lao and Feng Zun burst into laughter.
"Are you alright?" Yao Lao asked, looking at Xiao Tian.
"Everything went smoothly. I even killed the Star Reacher Ghost and others from the Soul Hall," Xiao Tian replied with a smile.
Yao Lao snorted, "The people from the Soul Hall are indeed annoying. They're everywhere."
"We'll wipe them out eventually," Xiao Tian said, then looked at Yao Lao, "Master, let's start creating your body now!"
With that, Xiao Tian flicked his finger, and a jade bottle appeared in his hand. Inside was a dragon-eye-sized pill, rotating and emitting a rich fragrance that invigorated everyone.
"Is this an eighth-grade Bone Fusion Pill?" Yao Lao asked, looking at the pill with admiration, "It seems your alchemy skills are not far behind mine now."
Xiao Tian smiled, then took out a transparent jade bottle containing some blue-green blood. The blood was pure and contained terrifying energy.
"This is the blood of a Five-Star Dou Zun Nine Nether Earth Python," Xiao Tian explained.
Although the Nine Nether Earth Python clan was not as powerful as the Sky Demon Phoenix, the blood of a Five-Star Dou Zun Nine Nether Earth Python was much stronger than the Heavenly Demon Phoenix blood used in the original story, which was at the peak of the seventh tier or Dou Zong peak.
"As for the skeleton, we'll use the Dou Saint skeleton," Xiao Tian said, producing the Dou Saint skeleton.
In the original story, only a four-star Dou Zun skeleton was used, with just one arm being from a Dou Saint. Xiao Tian, however, had an entire Dou Saint skeleton.
Yao Lao and Feng Zun's eyes lit up with intense enthusiasm as they looked at the jade-white skeleton. Their life's goal was to break through to the Dou Saint level, which granted immense longevity and earth-shattering power.
"Master, I'll start refining the body. Once it's done, you can merge with it," Xiao Tian said, extracting the blood and pouring it onto the Dou Saint skeleton.
"Sizzle!"
As soon as the blood touched the skeleton, its jade-white color began turning blue-green. Xiao Tian then summoned his fusion flame, enveloping the skeleton.
Under the burning flame, the beast blood began to fuse into the Dou Saint bones. After some time, Xiao Tian shouted, "Master, now!"
Yao Lao nodded, took the Bone Fusion Pill, and turned into a light beam that entered the Dou Saint skeleton.
The skeleton trembled slightly, and light began to gather in its hollow eye sockets. Amid the mysterious energy, the skeleton miraculously began to grow flesh.
"Hold on!" Xiao Tian shouted, continuing to use his flame.
After half a day, the once-skeletal figure had completely transformed into a human shape. Now, Yao Lao just needed time to fully merge with this body. It wouldn't be long before he could be reborn.
...
Xiao Tian took a deep breath and looked at the elderly figure in the flames. Seeing no issues, he turned to Feng Zun and said, "Elder Feng, please watch over my master. I'll go into seclusion for a while."
"Alright," Feng Zun agreed, closing his eyes.
Xiao Tian returned to the space within the dimensional gate, where he took out some Dou Saint bone marrow. Upon acquiring the Dou Saint skeleton, he had extracted a bit of the bone marrow.
Every part of a Dou Saint's body was a treasure. This bone marrow, for instance, could turn even a talentless infant into a genius.
Xiao Tian planned to use some of the Dou Saint bone marrow for his daughter and some for himself. His current cultivation level made him uneasy.
"Boom!"
He swallowed the Dou Saint bone marrow, which transformed into a vast ocean of pure energy, surging through his body. Under this powerful energy, his cultivation began to rise rapidly.
Seven-Star Dou Zun!
Eight-Star Dou Zun!
Nine-Star Dou Zun!
His cultivation stopped only after reaching the peak of Nine-Star Dou Zun.
"The Dou Saint bone marrow is truly incredible!" Xiao Tian marveled at his progress. "Just a small amount pushed me to the peak of Nine-Star Dou Zun. Consuming it all might push me straight to a high-level Half-Saint!"
Even high-grade seventh or eighth-tier pills couldn't compare to this effect. Only the devouring of different flames had such miraculous effects before.
Shaking his head, Xiao Tian thought, "Next is the Nine Turns to Saint transformation!"
Crossing from the peak of Dou Zun to Half-Saint required nine compressions and refinements of Dou Qi, each time making the Dou Qi denser and more refined, increasing the likelihood of a qualitative transformation.
This transformation was challenging and time-consuming, which is why Dou Saints were so rare. Even in the original story, Xiao Yan had to use the Bodhi Ancient Tree and experience a hundred reincarnations to achieve it.
"Looks like I need to aim for the Three Thousand Burning Flame next," Xiao Tian thought.
Among the unrefined flames, only the Three Thousand Burning Flame, the Nether Lotus Demon Fire, and the Devouring Flame remained, along with the Heavenly Fire beneath the Yang Fire Altar. The Three Thousand Burning Flame seemed the most attainable.
