Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”Tsk tsk, to make Huan’er use this Meridian Spirit, Yun Xiao indeed has enough reason to be proud!”

Xu Huang showed a faint smile on his face. Even though he was praising Yun Xiao, the underlying meaning was full of confidence in his own precious son.

Perhaps compared to the others from the Spirit Fighting Commerce, Xu Huang understood his son’s second Meridian Spirit more profoundly, because it was he who had helped Xu Huan erase its Spiritual Wisdom and then refine it into a Meridian Spirit after great effort.

Even Xu Huang had a faint suspicion that such a Meridian Spirit like his son’s might be as rare as a phoenix feather or a unicorn horn even at the headquarters of the Spirit Fighting Commerce. In a moment, it might shock everyone present.

”Xu Huang, your son’s Meridian Spirit is quite extraordinary!”

Just as Xu Huang’s contemplative words fell, a rather peculiar voice came from beside him. It was Special Envoy Xia Yong speaking, and hearing the tone, Xu Huang’s smile grew even richer.

”You have a keen eye, Envoy Xia!”

However, Xu Huang didn’t explain much, because he knew that once Xu Huan used the Meridian Spirit in battle, its details would no longer be hidden. It would be better for this esteemed envoy to discover the intricacies himself.

Sure enough, Xia Yong did not ask further, because the Meridian Spirit of Xu Huan in the arena had already revealed its shape. However, that shape seemed somewhat ethereal, like a flame spirit drifting in the wind.

”This aura...”

On the stage, when Yun Xiao got his first glimpse of the human yet non-human Fire Attribute Meridian Spirit, he slightly furrowed his brows.

Of course, he knew that it was not the tiger-headed snake-dragon he had seen a few days ago, but that kind of aura gave him a strange feeling, as if this aura seemed familiar from somewhere else.

”Could it be...”

Yun Xiao flipped through the memories of his past life, but it was in the memories of this life that he found a place similar to that Fire Attribute Strange Spirit, and he muttered to himself, ”Fire Spirit Snake!”

Back when Yun Xiao had just joined the Jade Pot Sect, he needed to find a Fire Stone Heart to neutralize the strength of the Stone Heart Marrow refinement, so he made a trip to the Yurong Volcano.

At that time, in the molten lava of the Yurong Volcano, he saw a special Fire Attribute Strange Spirit, the Fire Spirit Snake. The aura of Xu Huan’s Meridian Spirit at this moment was somewhat similar to the Fire Spirit Snake he saw back then.

Of course, the Fire Spirit Snake Yun Xiao had seen back then was only at the Fourth Rank, while Xu Huan’s Fire Attribute Meridian Spirit had reached the Seventh Rank Advanced. The two were simply incomparable.

But Yun Xiao was certain that the second Meridian Spirit of the son of the Yuyang City commerce family was not just some vein demon with erased Spiritual Wisdom, but a genuine... Strange Spirit!

On the Tenglong Continent, there were far more Strange Spirits than on the Hidden Dragon Continent, after all, the spiritual energy here is abundant and more conducive to all sorts of plants and stones developing Spiritual Wisdom, thereby cultivating into a Strange Spirit.

However, Strange Spirits are violent, and upon encountering humans or Vein Demons would kill first and ask questions later. Thus, on the Tenglong Continent, effective measures against Strange Spirits have been developed, especially among the major forces and sects, which have specialized branches dealing with them.

In dealing with Strange Spirits, aside from directly slaughtering them, there is another method; to erase their Spiritual Wisdom and refine them into one’s own Meridian Spirits. From this point of view, there’s not much difference between Strange Spirits and Vein Demons.

But to refine a Strange Spirit into one’s Meridian Spirit is far more difficult than refining a Vein Demon of the same level, let alone for someone like Xu Huan in the Qi Seeking Realm Late Stage, refining a Seventh Rank Advanced Strange Spirit.

Not to mention the fierce Fire Attribute energy within the Fire Spirit Snake, probably, at the moment of refinement, it would erupt into an extremely intense heat, incinerating the refiner into nothingness.

Some onlookers were rather puzzled and curious as to how Xu Huan had successfully refined this Strange Spirit Meridian Spirit, but Yun Xiao, with the memories of the Dragon Cloud Battle God, faintly guessed some clues.
