Starting with the Sword Ancestor System: Xiao Yan, Your Harem is Mine!

274: Refining the Soul from the Source, Advancing the Strength of AllDeep within the Heavenly Tomb, a vacuum zone.

Li Ao sat cross-legged before the ten thousand zhang stone stele, holding the gray-white light sphere that sealed the soul of the heavenly tomb. Light flowed on the surface of the sphere, and a tiny phantom could vaguely be seen struggling inside, yet it could never break through the Seal that fused the Power of Gui Xu, Purification Lotus Demon Flame, and the aura of the nirvana ancient talisman.

His face was still pale, but his aura had gradually stabilized. The powerful recovery ability of the Nirvana Hegemon Body was at work; the wounds on his skin had long healed, leaving only faint traces.

”Senior Brother, are you alright?” Xiao Yan stepped forward, asking with concern. Gu Xun’er, Medusa, and Xiao Yi Xian also gathered around, their eyes full of worry.

”It’s nothing, just a bit of exhaustion. I’ll be fine after a short rest.” Li Ao waved his hand, his gaze falling on the light sphere in his hand. ”This soul of the heavenly tomb is formed from the Origin will of this Heavenly Tomb Space, containing the purest Nirvana Power. For me, it is a great supplement.”

He then looked at the ten thousand zhang stone stele, which seemed much quieter after losing the control of the soul of the heavenly tomb: ”This stone tablet should be the core manifestation of this Heavenly Tomb fragment. The ancient energy and rule fragments contained within it are excellent Cultivation resources for you.”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s spirits lifted. They could all feel that although the place was still filled with a deathly silence, the heart-palpitating pressure had disappeared, replaced by a pure and vast ancient energy that seemed easier to absorb.

”Next, I will enter seclusion to refine this soul of the heavenly tomb, which may take a while.” Li Ao looked at everyone. ”You can Cultivate near this stone tablet. The energy here is the most dense and pure, and it’s relatively safe. Junior Brother Xiao Yan...”

He specifically looked at Xiao Yan: ”You possess multiple Heavenly Flames and Cultivate the Burning Technique. Although the ancient energy in this Heavenly Tomb carries Death Qi, after being transformed by the stone tablet, the ’ancient’ and ’sedimentation’ Concept it contains might help you further Fuse Heavenly Flames, solidify your Foundation, and Breakthrough to a higher Realm.”

Xiao Yan nodded heavily: ”I understand, Senior Brother!”

Li Ao then said to Medusa and Xiao Yi Xian: ”Shasha, Xian’er, you two should also Cultivate well here. Shasha, your Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python Bloodline can further Awaken with this ancient energy. Xian’er, your Chaos Poison Body can also try to absorb and refine the pure Death Qi here, which might lead to new changes.”

Both women nodded in agreement.

”Miss Xun’er,” Li Ao finally looked at Gu Xun’er, ”Thank you, Gu Clan, for this Opportunity. You may use the Opportunity here as you wish.”

Gu Xun’er smiled faintly: ”Hall Master Li is too polite. Xun’er also needs to work hard so as not to drag you down.” Her gaze swept over Xiao Yan, her eyes full of encouragement.

With arrangements made, Li Ao no longer delayed. With a flicker of his figure, he appeared at the top of the ten thousand zhang stone stele, where it was closest to the core of the tablet and the energy was most concentrated. He set up a simple Gui Xu Barrier, isolating the inside from the outside, then sat cross-legged, holding the gray-white light sphere in his hands, and closed his eyes.

”Let’s begin.”

His mind sank into his body, the Guixu Great Dao slowly circulated, and at the same time, he guided a trace of the nirvana ancient talisman’s aura, enveloping the sealed light sphere in his hand.

”Refine!”

With a low shout, a gray light burst forth from Li Ao’s palm, and the white halo of the Purification Lotus Demon Flame also flowed out, intertwining with the Power of Gui Xu, beginning to carefully refine the surface of the light sphere.

The soul of the heavenly tomb within the light sphere seemed to perceive the coming of its doom, emitting silent screams and struggles, but under the suppression of the nirvana ancient talisman’s Supreme aura, its resistance appeared pale and weak.

The refining process was slow and meticulous. Li Ao did not crudely devour it, but like the most skilled artisan, he meticulously peeled away and analyzed the Nirvana Origin and ancient memories contained within the soul of the heavenly tomb.
