Three-Star Dou Zhe. At this pace, in a few months I'll be ready to charge for the Dou Shi realm.
By then, I can help Father and my brothers awaken their Dou Emperor bloodline."
A faint smile curved his lips. This breakthrough had elevated his strength beyond measure.
He had refined the Bone Spirit Cold Flame into an Emperor Flame Seed, advanced to the level of a three-star Dou Zhe, and tempered his body in the process.
Now that he had stepped into the Dou Zhe realm, he could finally begin using the ancient body-forging methods buried within his memory to further strengthen himself.
Yet what pleased him most was the restoration of his soul power.
Not only could he now transmit information through it, but fragments of long-sealed memories had also returned.
Most of the techniques and battle arts he'd once gathered before ascending to the Great Thousand World had re-emerged in his mind.
"It's a pity," he sighed softly, "the memories beyond that.....the ones after becoming a Sovereign...are still hazy.
I can recall what happened… but not the details."
He exhaled, eyes landing on Yao Lao nearby, and a faint smile appeared.
"Still, what I do remember should be enough for Teacher—for now."
"Teacher, I'll pass you three secret arts. Before you reach the Dou Emperor realm, these will be more than enough."
Yao Lao blinked, momentarily stunned. Then a wry smile crept onto his weathered face.
Before reaching the Dou Emperor realm? This brat's tone was outrageous.
Could it be true that even Dou Emperors were nothing in his eyes?
Amused and intrigued, Yao Lao drifted before his disciple.
Xiao Yan closed his eyes, recalling three secret arts that could shake the Dou Qi Continent itself.
His soul surged; he raised a hand and gently tapped Yao Lao's forehead.
A torrent of spiritual information poured out from his mind, and his face instantly turned pale.
Each of the three secret arts was a creation of Dou Emperor-level experts....or higher. The information alone was overwhelming; a normal third-tier alchemist would struggle to transfer even a fraction of one.
Only Xiao Yan's exquisite control made it possible at all.
Even so, the process drained him to the brink, his head swimming from the effort.
When the final strands of information sank into Yao Lao's mind, the old man stood still, silent.
Moments later, his eyes snapped open..filled with shock and uncontrollable excitement.
Pharma Emperor Codex (Heaven Rank – Advanced)"
"Taiyi Soul Emperor Art (Heaven Rank – Advanced)"
"Chaos Divine Mill Visualization Method (Rank Unknown)"
The moment those three secret techniques emerged within his mind, even the experienced Yao Lao felt his soul tremble.
In all his years...even at the height of his power.....he had never encountered anything stronger than a low Heaven-rank art.
Those were already considered the pinnacle of cultivation on the Dou Qi Continent.
Yet here before him were two high Heaven-rank techniques… and one whose grade couldn't even be measured.
But it was the first one.....the Pharma Emperor Codex...that struck him most deeply.
That was no unknown art. He knew it well.
It was one of the sacred treasures of the Medicine Clan, a compendium written by the ancient Medicine Emperor himself after tens of thousands of years of refinement.
It contained every form of flame control, every soul manipulation method, countless high-grade pill recipes, and records of the Emperor's entire life of alchemy.
Even within the Medicine Clan, only the patriarch and ninth-tier alchemists were qualified to study it.
Just that alone was enough to make Yao Lao's heart thunder.
For any descendant of the Medicine Clan, learning this secret art was a lifelong dream.
Even as an outcast of his people, faced now with the clan's ultimate codex, Yao Lao's soul burned with pride and longing.
The second art.....Taiyi Soul Emperor Art...was a soul cultivation technique created by a Soul Clan Dou Emperor.
When perfected, it allowed the soul to evolve directly into an imperial state.
And the third one, the Chaos Divine Mill Visualization Method, though lacking any visible ranking, radiated a power far more mysterious and terrifying than even the other two Heaven-tier arts.
