"Xiao Realm..."
Hearing the words "Xiao Realm," Xiao Yi's mouth twitched slightly.
Because every Family or force with Peak Dou Sheng experts could construct an independent pocket dimension for their clansmen to live in.
After all, the Ancient World, which was the same size as the Northern Region of Central Plains, belonging to the Ancient Eight Clans, and the void space where the Ancient Dragon Island of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan was located, were all independent spaces constructed by super Dou Sheng experts!
Usually, such independent pocket dimensions were not only a symbol of their Family's strength but also provided a certain level of protection for the Family.
However, the words "Xiao Realm" were somewhat unfamiliar to the continent now... A thousand years ago, after Xiao Xuan fell, many Xiao Clan experts were buried with him... The Xiao Realm then vanished as if it had evaporated, completely removed from the continent.
So at this moment, not only Xiao Yi but even Xiao Xuan had a hint of desolation in his eyes... After all, for Xiao Xuan, the words "Xiao Realm" not only witnessed his glory of becoming a Dou Zun at fifteen, advancing to Dou Sheng at twenty, but also reaching the Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng in just a hundred years!
It also witnessed the tragic decline of the Xiao Clan overnight, and the vast Xiao Realm being removed from Central Plains... Inside the spatial tunnel...
Xiao Xuan and Xiao Yi both remained silent, their eyes sharp.
They traveled through the spatial tunnel, heading towards their destination.
In the Eastern Region of Central Plains, Xiao Emperor City... An energy ripple slowly appeared in the sky above Xiao Emperor City, followed by a spatial teleportation passage appearing out of thin air...
Xiao Xuan and Xiao Yi slowly stepped out of the spatial tunnel.
Xiao Emperor City was originally an ancient city where the Xiao Clan's affiliated Family resided a thousand years ago.
And the entrance to the Xiao Realm was precisely within Xiao Emperor City, and the duty of the clansmen in Xiao Emperor City was to guard that Xiao Realm entrance!
A thousand years ago, before the Xiao Clan declined and before Xiao Xuan fell.
Xiao Emperor City was also one of the top super-large towns in Central Plains!
It's a pity that a thousand years have passed, and the once infinitely glorious Xiao Emperor City, with the decline of the Xiao Clan, has completely become a desolate city... The clansmen who lived there naturally could not escape the Hun Clan's extermination; no one was spared...
At this moment, Xiao Xuan looked at the desolate Xiao Emperor City before him and couldn't help but sigh.
After all, the desolation before him was also proof of the Xiao Clan's decline.
"Little Fellow..."
"This is the entrance to my Xiao Realm, named Xiao Emperor City..."
Xiao Xuan spoke in a deep voice, his eyes filled with desolation.
Xiao Yi nodded lightly upon hearing this, scanning the overgrown Xiao Emperor City.
Although Xiao Emperor City was already desolate, its architectural scope still showed that it was quite large a thousand years ago.
From this, it can be seen that when Xiao Xuan was alive, the Xiao Clan, not considering the reason for the exhaustion of the Dou Di Bloodline, could undoubtedly be called the strongest among the Ancient Eight Clans...
After Xiao Xuan finished speaking, he led Xiao Yi towards the central altar of Xiao Emperor City.
That was the activation point for the Xiao Realm's teleportation entrance.
At this moment, the remains of the Xiao Realm teleportation Formation were half-buried under moss and rubble, its Formation patterns dim like a dying candle flame.
Only a faint, lingering Xiao Clan Qi remained on the dark golden 'Xiao' Clan Mark in the center.
Xiao Xuan stood with his hands behind his back before the Formation, his dark robe fluttering in the mountain wind.
He condensed a mixed aura of light golden Dou Qi and Soul Power at his fingertips, which flowed like a thin stream along the grooves of the Formation patterns.
"Little Fellow, you now possess the Xiao Clan Dou Di Bloodline..."
"And to open the Xiao Realm teleportation gate, you first need the Xiao Clan Dou Di Bloodline Power to resonate with this Formation; would you like to try..."
Xiao Xuan's voice was deep, his gaze fixed on Xiao Yi beside him.
Xiao Yi stepped forward in response, nodding.
The next second, Xiao Yi placed his palm on the 'Xiao' Clan Mark at the center of the Formation.
The Xiao Clan Dou Di Bloodline within Xiao Yi suddenly boiled, and a crimson-golden light surged from his palm into the Formation.
Instantly, the dim Formation patterns lit up like a ignited galaxy, one after another, golden light patterns intertwined on the ground to form an ancient and complex 'Xiao' character.
A heavy aura transcending time and space emanated from the Formation.
Xiao Xuan nodded at the sight.
"Rise!"
Then Xiao Xuan let out a low cry, lightly pointing his fingertip at the Formation's eye.
A surge of power from Xiao Xuan's fingertip converged with Xiao Yi's Bloodline Power in the Formation, and a golden pillar of light shot up into the sky, piercing through the clouds.
Within the pillar of light, a blurry spatial crack slowly opened, and deep within the crack, ancient palaces and swirling mist were faintly visible—that was the Xiao Clan's homeland, the Xiao Realm, which had slept for a thousand years.
Seeing the vaguely visible Xiao Realm homeland within that space, the Dou Di Bloodline within Xiao Yi seemed to have a certain breath, and its flow speed seemed to quicken a bit.
"Little Fellow... let's go..."
As Xiao Xuan's words fell, he was the first to step into the pillar of light, his figure instantly swallowed by the spatial crack.
Xiao Yi took a deep breath, his eyes filled with excitement and awe, and followed closely into the pillar of light.
As the two figures disappeared, the pillar of light slowly receded, and the spatial crack closed, leaving only a faint golden afterglow on the teleportation Formation on the ground.
It was completely out of place with the incredibly desolate Xiao Emperor City around it... The moment they stepped into the Xiao Realm, what greeted them was not the abundant Spiritual Qi and vitality like in the Ancient World before, but an icy silence.
The Spiritual Qi that should have once filled the heavens and earth was now long gone.
Only the desolate Death Qi slowly floated in the air; inhaling it only felt dry and cold.
However, as far as Xiao Yi could see, ancient palace complexes stood askew, most of their flying eaves broken and fallen.
The land beneath their feet had long lost all life, leaving only scorched earth filled with desolate Death Qi.
Everything before Xiao Yi silently spoke of the Xiao Realm's decline.
Although Xiao Yi didn't know what the Xiao Realm was like a thousand years ago, he had been to the Ancient World and could guess that the Xiao Realm a thousand years ago would certainly have been even grander than the current Ancient World.
However, Xiao Xuan, seeing the desolate, barren, and Death Qi-filled Xiao Realm before him, had an indescribable look in his eyes.
After all, no one could understand Xiao Xuan's feelings, because Xiao Xuan had witnessed the prosperity of the Xiao Realm, and now stepping on the land of the Xiao Realm again, his heart was naturally filled with mixed emotions...
A moment later, Xiao Xuan slowly looked up at the sky above and finally spoke in a deep voice:
"After so many years, even the Xiao Realm is about to collapse..."
Because the Xiao Clan had declined for a thousand years, and the Xiao Realm lacked maintenance from Dou Sheng experts, the spatial Laws that constructed the Xiao Realm could not withstand the erosion of time.
Today, Xiao Xuan and Xiao Yi reopening the Xiao Realm was also a shock to this space!
So Xiao Xuan could sense that the space here already vaguely had the feeling of collapsing and shattering...
After Xiao Xuan finished speaking, he slowly stepped towards the homeland before him, and Xiao Yi followed behind Xiao Xuan, softly saying:
"Ancestor..."
"Although the Xiao Realm has declined, you have now recovered your Nine-Star Dou Sheng strength. Once this junior finds a suitable body and forges a Physical Body for you to help you revive..."
"We will definitely be able to restore the Xiao Realm to its former glory..."
