Bang~!
Under the obliteration of the Exquisite Pagoda, the remnant soul of the Silver River Emperor from a million years ago was wiped out, then transformed into pure and dense soul energy suspended in the air.
As Ye Xuan's home ground, the Heavenly Thunder Spear was currently stuck into the remnant soul energy. A devouring force surged, and in the next moment, the entire Sea of Consciousness boiled.
"Good heavens, this honored self seems to have grown stronger again!"
The soul of the Ice River Behemoth clone licked its lips, looking at the surging Sea of Consciousness. It, along with the souls of the Elf clone and the Dragon clone, divided the remaining half of the remnant soul energy.
As for Ye Xuan's realm, after absorbing the remnant soul energy of the Silver River Emperor from a million years ago, his entire aura had advanced from the ninth-tier Void Ancestor realm to the peak of the ninth-tier Void Ancestor, and finally, forcefully reached the extreme of the ninth-tier Void Ancestor peak.
It could be seen how immense this half of the remnant soul energy was. Ye Xuan even felt that if he had absorbed the entire remnant soul, he might have directly stepped into the Dao Ancestor realm.
Following this, Ye Xuan's divine sense explored the spatial ring he had obtained, and his expression couldn't help but be stunned.
"This is... such potent energy, far stronger than low-grade immortal crystals. Could this be mid-grade immortal crystals!?"
"10 mid-grade immortal crystals, plus a hundred low-grade immortal crystals, and a spirit herb of 900,000 years old!"
It was evident that Ye Xuan had made a huge profit this time. He immediately took out a mid-grade immortal crystal. The moment the mid-grade immortal crystal appeared, the entire cave mansion surged with unprecedented energy fluctuations.
However, it was fleeting and was quickly suppressed and isolated by Ye Xuan. He then began to absorb the energy from the mid-grade immortal crystal in his hand.
The unprecedentedly surging energy was even denser than that of a spirit herb of five hundred thousand years.
Even Dao Ancestor powerhouses could not remain calm when faced with low-grade immortal crystals. As for the mid-grade immortal crystal in Ye Xuan's hand, if all the Dao Ancestors knew about it, they would kill Ye Xuan at all costs to seize his fortune.
As expected, Ye Xuan was now just one step away from the Dao Ancestor realm.
At a certain moment, the three clone souls receded into the Sea of Consciousness, and Ye Xuan's soul also vanished from his original spot with a curved smile.
Subsequently...
Ye Xuan opened his eyes, and the aura of the extreme ninth-tier Void Ancestor peak surged. Feeling the unparalleled power, Ye Xuan was briefly lost in thought, "Good heavens, this is the aura of the extreme ninth-tier Void Ancestor peak."
"Strong enough."
"If the extreme ninth-tier Void Ancestor is this strong, then if I step into the Dao Ancestor realm..."
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan licked his lips, "Since that's the case, then I'll make one final push."
Next, Ye Xuan appeared on the second level of the Exquisite Pagoda and took out a mid-grade immortal crystal and ten low-grade immortal crystals.
"The effect of immortal crystals is much milder than spirit herbs. Mid-grade immortal crystals should be fine."
Then, he held the mid-grade immortal crystal, and the gentle immortal crystal energy flowed into Ye Xuan's body. His aura, which was originally at the extreme ninth-tier Void Ancestor peak, grew stronger at a visible speed.
Just as Ye Xuan had predicted, the energy from the mid-grade immortal crystal pushed his strength to a noticeable enhancement.
"Still not enough?"
Feeling that he was just a step away from the Dao Ancestor realm, Ye Xuan's gaze fell upon the ten low-grade immortal crystals in his hand. "In that case, let's begin!"
Without any fancy methods, he directly began to devour the ten low-grade immortal crystals.
Boom~~
The surging energy swept through his body, directly charging towards the barrier of the Dao Ancestor realm.
Once!
Ten times! A hundred times!!
In an instant, the impact on the Dao Ancestor realm surpassed a hundred times. Finally, at a certain moment, the barrier of the Dao Ancestor realm emitted a cracking sound, and centered on the crack, the aura of the Dao Ancestor realm exploded open.
Ye Xuan was undoubtedly, at this moment!
By using ten low-grade immortal crystals simultaneously, he forcefully broke through the threshold of the Dao Ancestor realm. Of course, the previous mid-grade immortal crystal also played a part in this.
At this moment, even with the use of immortal crystals, Ye Xuan's body had reached its limit. If he were to forcefully break through further, he would surely explode and die.
"So strong!"
"This feeling is incomparably exhilarating!!"
Clenching his fists, Ye Xuan felt quite emotional. In the past, the Dao Ancestor realm was something he could only look up to, an existence far beyond his reach. Now, he had actually reached this realm, the Dao Ancestor realm.
However, Ye Xuan knew very well that this was just his new beginning!
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for stepping into the Dao Ancestor realm, the third level of the Exquisite Pagoda has been unlocked!"
As Ye Xuan was reflecting with emotion, the system's voice sounded in his ear. It was the Exquisite Pagoda that had unlocked a new level.
Immediately after, even the time flow became 10 times that of the outside world. Upon learning of this change, Ye Xuan was somewhat stunned. Ten times the time flow, if calculated this way, the second level would be 20 times, and the third level would be 40 times. If one also accounted for the 50 times cultivation speed, it meant that...
One day of cultivation on the third level of the Exquisite Pagoda would be equivalent to 2000 days outside, a cultivation speed of 2000 times. Of course, this was the ideal scenario.
However, the only condition was that to enter the third level for cultivation, apart from Ye Xuan himself, everyone else must be at least a fifth-tier Dao Ancestor realm or above to enter.
In other words, up to this point, besides Ye Xuan, the only one qualified to cultivate here was Dongfang Wenren of the Guiyuan Sect.
Dongfang Wenren, who was cultivating on the second level of the Exquisite Pagoda, sensed the change in the Exquisite Pagoda and immediately flashed into the third level.
Indeed, the 40-times time flow had utterly shocked him!
"Alliance Leader, this is..."
"The third level of the Exquisite Pagoda!!"
Dongfang Wenren stared at his surroundings with his mouth agape, but then, he looked at Ye Xuan as if he had seen a ghost, "No!"
"The third level of the Exquisite Pagoda, could it be... Alliance Leader, you've stepped into the Dao Ancestor realm!!"
"How is that possible!!!"
Thinking of this, Dongfang Wenren could no longer remain calm. Was he kidding?
He had known before that Ye Xuan would unlock a level of the Exquisite Pagoda every time he advanced a major realm. However, didn't the Alliance Leader not reach the sixth-tier Void Ancestor realm? How did he jump to the Dao Ancestor realm? This??
It was truly extraordinary and incomprehensible, no wonder Dongfang Wenren reacted this way!!
"Heh heh, a fortunate breakthrough."
Seeing Dongfang Wenren's astonished expression, Ye Xuan curved his lips and then the aura of the Dao Ancestor realm rippled out from his body.
"It's... it's truly the Dao Ancestor realm!!"
The facts were before him. Dongfang Wenren swallowed a gulp, feeling the undeniable aura of the Dao Ancestor realm. Dongfang Wenren's gaze towards Ye Xuan changed completely.
What was he seeing!
It was too terrifying. What kind of innate talent did the Alliance Leader possess? In such a short period, he had gone from the sixth-tier Void Ancestor realm all the way to the Dao Ancestor realm. His actions... were appalling!
